Today’s Headlines: International adversary week rolls on with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban meeting Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago just after the NATO summit. Orban, who recently met with Putin and Xi Jinping, praised Trump as a "man of peace," while pushing for a Ukraine ceasefire that would cede land to Russia. This cozy relationship is drawing suspicion, especially after Orban's recent diplomatic maneuvers. Meanwhile, Democratic Senators have called for a special counsel to investigate Justice Clarence Thomas, highlighting undisclosed gifts, including a 2003 yacht trip to Russia, with potential connections to Putin. In other news, the Treasury and IRS have collected over $1 billion in tax debt from high-income individuals, thanks to enhanced funding for enforcement, aiming to recover up to $850 billion by 2034.
