Japanese leader calls Barron Trump a ‘good-looking gentleman’ during White House dinner
Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi said that Barron Trump was a “good-looking gentleman” during a dinner at the White House.
Takaichi paid a compliment to Barron last night, just a day before Trump’s youngest child’s twentieth birthday.
The Japanese leader also remarked upon Barron’s height. The NYU student stands around 6-foot-9, according to estimates, with photos often showing him towering over his father, President Trump, and mother, First Lady Melania Trump.
“I know he has grown up so much into a very tall, good-looking gentleman,” Takaichi said. “As I see you, Donald, it is very clear where he got it. Of course, from his parents.
“There is no doubt about it,” she continued. “So Donald, if I may ask you, please convey my sincere happy birthday wishes to him.”

Cricket is returning to Olympics after 128 years. But many hope the sport will finally crack America
Cricket, the world's second most-watched sport, is set to make its Olympic return in 2028, 126 years after its last appearance.
This significant comeback is being heralded by the commencement of construction for a new 10,000-plus capacity cricket stadium in Pomona, eastern Los Angeles County.
This premier venue, designed to host both men's and women's matches, is located within the Fairplex fairgrounds.
It will serve as the home of the Los Angeles Knight Riders, a Major League Cricket team owned by Mumbai-based Knight Riders Sports, a company co-led by Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan.
The groundbreaking ceremony included a 'bhumi pujan', a Hindu ritual traditionally performed to seek divine blessings and forgiveness before disturbing the earth for construction.
Cricket already holds significant cultural sway within US diaspora communities, particularly those from South Asia, where it is followed with fervent dedication.

How bad are Trump’s aid cuts now Congress is fighting back?
When Donald Trump signed a $51.4 billon (£37.8bn) foreign aid package earlier this month, including nearly $6bn for the global HIV response, the announcement was framed as a restoration of the key programmes that the US president had slashed when he came back into office at the start of 2025. Congress had rejected proposed cuts and compelled the White House to release funding for programmes that underpin treatment for millions of people.
The Joint UN Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) has spoken of the “real bright lights we are starting to see” given the change. The figures looked familiar, with around $9.4bn for global health overall, covering HIV treatment and prevention; tuberculosis and malaria programmes; maternal and child health services and vaccine support – alongside humanitarian assistance.
Any increase in funding for such health projects is a good thing, but it is not a full restoration. Analysis from the Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF) shows that the global health budget now pl..
