Donald Trump to give speech on crime and safety during New York visit – US politics live

Donald Trump plans to deliver a speech addressing crime and safety during his upcoming visit to New York. The trip aims to bolster Republicans in crucial races ahead of the November midterms.

President Trump is scheduled to visit a police academy in Long Island, further emphasizing his focus on law enforcement during the trip.

Meanwhile, in a separate development, foreign relations remain tense. Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov claimed that the United States is deeply involved in Ukrainian attacks against Russia. He alleged that the U.S. is providing intelligence support, though the claim has not been independently verified.

Inside the U.S., legal matters are also in the spotlight. Luigi Mangione, accused of gunning down a health insurance executive, is set to appear in federal court on Friday. He is expected to plead guilty to stalking or similar charges.

In a move that could challenge a federal court order, President Trump's allies on the Kennedy Center board have taken steps to commemorate him with physical changes to the iconic performing arts institution.
