	Description:		President Trump talks about next steps for Venezuela, calling for U.S. companies to help rebuild the economy even as much of the existing power structure remains in place. Facing tough midterm elections in 2026, Trump tells House Republicans he’s struggling to understand voters and leans into culture-war issues rather than cost-of-living concerns. And European leaders rally around Greenland, pushing back on Trump’s renewed claims that the United States needs the territory for national security.
