Trump: I want the people of Gaza to be safe
US President Donald Trump praised the passage of a sweeping tax and spending bill on Thursday, describing it as a landmark victory for the American economy. Speaking to reporters ahead of a campaign rally in Iowa, Trump declared the legislation a game-changer. "It's going to make this country into a rocket ship," he said, calling it "the biggest bill of its kind ever signed." The president linked the law to anticipated economic acceleration as he launched a multi-state tour celebrating the lead-up to America's 250th Independence Day in 2026. But while he celebrated the domestic achievement, Trump struck a more somber tone when addressing foreign policy matters. Asked about his recent phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin regarding the war in Ukraine, Trump admitted the conversation yielded no breakthrough. "No, I didn't make any progress with him at all," Trump said. "I'm not happy about the ongoing war." Turning to the Middle East, the president reiterated his concern for civilians caught in the conflict in Gaza, especially ahead of a planned White House meeting with 'Israeli' Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu next week. "I want the people of Gaza to be safe more importantly," Trump told reporters. "They've gone through hell." Trump stopped short of confirming whether he still supported US administrative oversight in Gaza, an idea he floated earlier this year.
