1. Right Wins Romania

Right-wing leader George Simion has won the first round of Romania’s presidential election, according to exit polls, and will face one of two pro-EU centrists in the run-off vote on May 18.

Simion won 33 per cent according to an exit poll by CURS, with Crin Antonescu, the joint candidate of three centrist government parties, on 23 per cent. But the race for second looks to be on a knife-edge: a second exit poll by Avangarde, which also put Simion in the lead on 33 per cent, said Antonescu was neck and neck with Nicușor Dan, the liberal, independent mayor of the capital Bucharest, on 23 per cent.

The vote was rerun after the first-round victory of Călin Georgescu was annulled by the constitutional court over allegations of Russian interference. Georgescu, an ally of Simion, was subsequently barred from standing in the new ballot.

2. Trump Approves New Weapons Shipments to Ukraine

The US is planning to send advanced air defence systems to Ukraine after Donald Trump signed a minerals deal with Kyiv and threatened to walk away from peace talks.

One Patriot system will be moved from Israel after undergoing refurbishments, while a second system could be sent by Germany or Greece, according to four officials.

Mr Trump paused all military deliveries to Ukraine after a row with Volodymyr Zelensky in the Oval Office. But he has since grown frustrated with Vladimir Putin’s refusal to commit to a ceasefire and has withdrawn from formal peace negotiations.

3. Air Traffic Controller Warns Newark Airport Unsafe for Travel

Newark Liberty International Airport is “not safe” for travelers, one air traffic controller at the delay-plagued travel hub reportedly warned.

“It is not safe. It is not a safe situation right now for the flying public,” the federal air safety employee reportedly told NBC News correspondent Tom Costello.

“Really an incredible statement, unsolicited. He just said that to me, and separately, ‘Don’t fly into Newark. Avoid Newark at all costs,’” Costello recounted on MSNBC.

4. Top Moments from Trump’s ‘Meet the Press’ Interview

President Trump appeared Sunday on NBC News’ “Meet the Press,” where he talked at length about several issues facing Americans, including the economy, and some of his goals for his second term in office.

The wide-ranging interview saw Trump expound on everything from a planned military parade in June, the possibility of a third term, and his views on Canada and Greenland’s future.

Biden to blame for ‘bad parts’ of the economy

Trump denied that his policies are to blame for the sinking parts of the economy, squarely placing it on the shoulders of his predecessor, former President Joe Biden.

5. Massive Military Parade to Be Held on Trump’s Birthday

The Army confirmed on Friday that a massive military parade featuring 6,600 soldiers, 150 vehicles, and 50 helicopters will be held on President Donald Trump’s 79th birthday as part of the service’s 250th anniversary celebration.

The parade will follow a route from Arlington, Virginia, to the National Mall and has been submitted for classification as a “national special security event,” bringing additional federal resources to secure the area, PBS reported.

White House officials confirmed the commemorative parade would be one of the first events to kick off a yearlong celebration of the nation’s 250th anniversary planned through July 4, 2026.

6. Houthi Rebels Blitz Israel’s Busiest Airport with Ballistic Missile

Houthi rebels have unleashed a terrifying ballistic missile on Israel’s busiest airport.

Israel promised to respond to the devastating strike on the Ben Gurion Airport as Defence Minister Israel Katz vowed: “Whoever harms us, we will strike them sevenfold.”

Surveillance footage shows the moment the powerful weapon from the Iran-backed terror group hit the airport.

7. ‘Shame! Shame! Shame!’: All Hell Breaks Loose at AOC Town Hall

A far-Left protester scolded New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D) during a town hall event held Friday, accusing AOC of being a “liar” and a “war criminal.”

“I am a health care worker and I want to know what you’re doing about the genocide in Gaza!” the female protester yelled at Ocasio-Cortez. “I’m a nurse, shame on you!”

“Shame on you, you’re a liar. You’re a liar!” the protester continued to yell. “You’re a war criminal! War criminal!”
