On Tuesday, July 28, 2026, President Donald Trump met behind closed doors with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the White House. These meetings occurred prior to the world leaders paying their respects at the funeral of the late Senator Lindsey Graham.

The funeral drew attention as wars in Iran and Ukraine reached critical points, with both Netanyahu and Zelenskyy in attendance. A never-before-seen video surfaced showing Senator Graham expressing fatigue as he sought a deal to end the war in Ukraine.

Additional news on the same day included revelations from Anthony Fauci's journal about how Presidents Trump and Biden handled Covid-19 cases, accusations by an Olympic canoeist's lawyers that the Department of Justice misled a grand jury in the Reflecting Pool case, and easing US-Iran strikes after two weeks of continuous attacks.

Trump was also set to deliver an emotional tribute at Graham's funeral. The events highlight ongoing geopolitical tensions and domestic political developments in the United States.
