President Donald Trump’s deputies have identified 43 countries whose residents and citizens will likely be denied a visa to enter the United States, according to a report. Visitors and would-be migrants seeking a visa would be “flatly barred” if they come from a list of “Red” countries, including Afghanistan, Bhutan, Cuba, Iran, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Venezuela, and Yemen, the New York Times reported on Friday, citing anonymous sources. ...Most of the countries are likely excluded because they are dominated by Islamic ideology which encourages terrorism against Western countries. Some of them, however, are likely included in the lists because many of their visitors remain as illegal “overstays” in the United States instead of going home. Some countries are on the list because their government tried to prevent the deportation of their illegal immigrant citizens from the United States. Notably, the administration is saying it wants to exclude individuals who hate American society. Just hours after President Trump authorized powerful military action to restore American deterrence in the region, the emboldened Houthis fired 18 ballistic and cruise missiles along with a drone attack, vowing to escalate against all U.S. warships in the Red Sea and Arabian Sea. On Saturday, President Trump, demonstrating his signature “peace through strength” doctrine, ordered a decisive and calculated military response against Houthi rebels in Yemen. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth made an appearance on “Sunday Morning Futures” with Maria Bartiromo, hammering home the clear message to America’s adversaries: the era of appeasement is over. “An era of peace through strength is back,” Hegseth said. “We are sitting on four years of deferred maintenance from Joe Biden, where in particular when you talk about the Houthis, they were allowed for over a hundred times to shoot at US ships, to shoot at commercial shipping,” Hegseth continued. Meanwhile, Houthi leader Abdul Malik al-Houthi warned that his militants will now target Israeli shipping in a desperate attempt to gain leverage. He also declared that all American ships were now banned from entering the Red Sea. The Democrat Party is in full-blown collapse as the latest NBC News poll reveals a devastating reality. With the nation rejecting their radical policies and endless failures, only 7% of Americans still have a “very positive” view of the Democrats — marking an all-time low in NBC News polling history dating back to 1990, according to the far-left network. Americans are rejecting the radical left. And it’s not just Republicans who are sick of the Democrats’ disastrous policies—nearly 20% of their own voters have turned on them, disgusted by the party’s lack of leadership and direction. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/03/democrats-hit-rock-bottom-nbc-poll-shows-just/ U.S. President Donald Trump is scheduled to speak to his Russian counterpart for two hours on Tuesday as they seek an answer to a potential ceasefire in Ukraine. President Trump is believed to be in conversation with Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin at time of press in a telephone call given two hours of their scheduled days. Per a Kremlin spokesman, the call was due to last from 1300 GMT (0900 U.S. Eastern) up to 1500 (1100). The President said part of the discussion would be about “dividing up certain assets”, with “a lot of it already discussed very much by both sides, Ukraine and Russia”. These assets included land and “power plants”, he said, presumably meaning Ukraine’s major fleet of nuclear reactors. This story is developing, more follows.

In principle, all parties at the table in the Ukraine War ceasefire talks — Ukraine, its primary sponsor the U.S., and Russia — have previously stated they wish for peace, but generally with the caveat that it would have to be a peace on their own terms.
