Live updates and the latest news as Trump prepares to impose reciprocal tariffs and his intelligence chief nominee Tulsi Gabbard gets a Senate confirmation vote.

President Donald Trump has once again insisted the US will take control of the Gaza Strip, as he met Jordan's King Abdullah at the White House on Tuesday. It was their first meeting since Trump announced his proposal to take over the enclave and move its population of two million Palestinians to other countries in the region,

President Donald Trump echoed his previous comments that Gaza could be emptied of residents, controlled by the US and redeveloped as a tourist area, claiming it would make the place ‘exciting’. Today Mr Trump hosted Jordan’s King Abdullah II at the White House on Tuesday and reiterated his ‘plan’ to takeover the Gaza Strip.

The wire service said the decision stemmed from a style guidance to continue using the name Gulf of Mexico instead of Gulf of America.

The Associated Press has said it would refer to the Gulf of Mexico “by its original name while acknowledging” President Trump’s choice to rename the body of water.

The Associated Press said it was blocked from covering President Donald Trump’s executive order signing today because it declined to change the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America in its editorial style standards.
