Fox News' Alex Hogan reports on President Donald Trump's visit to Ireland, focusing on American business ties there and Trump's comments about unification.

President Donald Trump said during a trip to Ireland that the United States and Canada would probably reach a deal fairly soon.
During his visit to Ireland, Donald Trump said he would “love” to see the island united and that unification would eventually happen, so it might as well happen now. The remarks drew swift opposition from the UK government and Northern Ireland’s unionist leaders, who said the territory’s constitutional future should be decided by its people.

Trump predicted that the Iran war would end soon after the midterm elections, followed by a sharp drop in oil prices. Oil prices retreated Friday on hopes that negotiations could resume, but still posted steep weekly gains after surging above $100 a barrel.

President Donald Trump said he was optimistic that the trade war between the US and Canada could be resolved “fairly soon.” He offered no details on whether formal talks between the two economies had resumed.
Midterm elections typically reshape the balance of power in Washington, and Democrats hope that pattern holds in November. But NBC News examines whether the “Trump effect” could alter the outlook as Republicans and Democrats position themselves for the 2026 midterms.

Vice President JD Vance is expected to campaign aggressively for Republican candidates as he and Donald Trump split up the midterm election map. A source close to Vance described the strategy as “divide and conquer.”
Top Trump political adviser James Blair says he is “cautiously optimistic” about the midterm elections, even as the Republican Party faces serious headwinds heading into November.

President Donald Trump is traveling to Dublin to meet Ireland’s president and prime minister. America First Policy senior fellow Joshua Treviño examines the visit and key questions involving trade and security.

The authors of “The Price of Money” argue that rising borrowing costs are driven more by boomers’ savings and surging debt than by monetary policy or Trump’s war with Iran.
