- President Donald Trump faced online mockery after sharing an AI-generated image of himself holding many Uno cards, captioned “I have all the cards,” which social media users interpreted as a misunderstanding of the game's objective.
- Critics, including California Democratic Rep. Ted Lieu, highlighted that winning Uno requires a player to get rid of all their cards, not accumulate them.
- The image, posted on Truth Social and the White House's official X account, was reportedly intended to signal Trump's perceived leverage in the ongoing Iran war.
- Separately, Trump announced “Project Freedom,” an initiative to guide stranded commercial ships from the Strait of Hormuz starting Monday, involving guided-missile destroyers and thousands of service members.
- Iran responded to the announcement by warning that any foreign armed forces, particularly the U.S. military, approaching the Strait would be attacked, as the waterway's closure continues to impact global markets and gas prices.
