Trump and Zelensky trade barbs. I'm Sue Guzman, Fox News. President Trump ratcheting up criticism of Ukraine's president as the U.S. and Russia begin peace talks. In a social media post, President Trump says Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky better move fast or he is not going to have a country left, calling Zelensky a dictator and accusing him of keeping the gravy train going.
It comes a day after President Trump suggested Ukraine is at fault for Russia's invasion nearly three years ago. Today I heard, oh, we weren't invited. Well, you've been there for three years. You should have ended it three years. You should have never started it. You could have made a deal. Zelensky says President Trump is living in a disinformation space and should be more truthful. Jared Halpern, Fox News. An appeals court has blocked a $475 billion student loan forgiveness plan from former
President Joe Biden. The Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals agreed with the seven Republican states that sued over the SAVE plan. That's the income-driven repayment plan that was created under the Biden administration. That plan was meant to lower monthly payments based on income as well as make it easier for the smaller businesses
balances to be forgiven. Now, the Penn Wharton budget model says it's estimated that just the safe plan alone would have cost about $550 billion of taxpayer money over 10 years, which would have added to the federal debt and Republicans cheering the cost reductions. And the Supreme Court had ruled against them, the Democrats still sticking and asking Americans to pay more in taxes for government subsidies. Now, in a separate ruling, another judge ruled that Doge did have access
And the ability to look at the education department's financial spreadsheets. That is Fox's Edward Lawrence. And Doge suggesting the federal government return some of the savings it's uncovered, checking into government spending. President Trump announcing Wednesday the administration is seriously considering returning 20% of the savings by Doge to Americans and other 20% to pay down federal debt. America's listening to Fox News.

Italian premier Giorgia Maloney described the pope as alert and responsive during her visit to the papal suite at Gemelli Hospital in Rome. Maloney said he still has his sense of humor. Pope Francis is diagnosed with pneumonia in both lungs along with a bronchial infection. Maloney is said to be the pontiff's
first visitor outside of staff and his medical team during his hospital stay. Francis, who is 88, is reported by the Vatican to have been eating and out of bed as he recovers. The church says the Pope is listed as stable. Grinnell Scott, Fox News. Requests to suppress search warrants and evidence collection methods from a murder suspect's trial have been denied by a judge in Idaho. Fox's Jessica Rosenthal has more. Attorneys for Brian Koberger argued that the way DNA evidence was used to
to identify him as the murder suspect was improper, and so any evidence gathered after that point shouldn't be allowed in at trial. Idaho Judge Stephen Hippler rejected that argument and also said Koberger could not have a separate hearing challenging the police investigation. He's accused of murdering four University of Idaho college students at an off-campus apartment, Madison Mogan, Ethan Chapin, Santa Cronodal, and Kelly Gonsalves.
His trial is expected to begin in August. After jury selection July 30th, he could face the death penalty. Jessica Rosenthal, Fox News.
