<h2>Trump hints at third term</h2>
Days ago, Trump suggested he might consider pursuing a third term in office, despite the US Constitution barring it under the 22nd Amendment.
In a phone interview with NBC News on Sunday morning, he said there were ways this could happen and made clear he was &ldquo;not joking&rdquo;.
&ldquo;A lot of people want me to do it,&rdquo; Trump said, referring to support from his allies. &ldquo;But, I mean, I basically tell them we have a long way to go, you know, it&rsquo;s very early in the administration,&rdquo; he said.

Changing the Constitution to allow a third term would require considerable political effort, needing a two-thirds majority in Congress or agreement from two-thirds of the states to call a constitutional convention. Any changes would then need to be approved by three-quarters of the states.

Who's the Democrat Trump wants to face in third-term showdown? SPOILER: It's not Biden

Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has named one of its young software engineers as head of the US Institute of Peace.&nbsp;
This comes almost a month after the agency refused to allow DOGE employees into the building.&nbsp;
28-year-old Nate Cavanaugh will now be leading the USIP, a White House official confirmed to the Daily Beast.&nbsp;
Earlier this month, Deputy White House Press Secretary Anna Kelly announced that George Moose, the then president of USIP, had been replaced with Kenneth Jackson, a State Department employee who has been helping DOGE dismantle international agencies.

&ldquo;George is actually a career bureaucrat who wants to be unaccountable to the American people,&rdquo; Kelly said.&nbsp;
However, the institute argued that the board must have 12 other members appointed with the advice and consent of the Senate, adding that the board must be bipartisan.&nbsp;
Later, Musk's DOGE officials showed up to begin gutting the agency, but the institute turned them away.&nbsp;
A few hours later, DOGE returned with a document signed by Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth and Garvin, saying that Moose had been removed. But a lawyer for the institute told them USIP was an independent agency, and the president couldn&rsquo;t just fire the board members at will.&nbsp;
DOGE workers, including Jackson, gained entry to the building alongside a police escort, the Daily Beast reported. Moose said at the time that Musk&rsquo;s department had broken in. However, DOGE denied the claims.
Then, the FBI threatened the institute for lack of access to the building, its lawyers said.&nbsp;

US President Donald Trump's visit to the Middle Eastern nations comes amid his efforts to end the ongoing wars in Israel-Hamas and Russia-Ukraine. But what exactly is on his agenda? Let's dig deeper to know more.&nbsp;
As his first international trip, Trump is planning to travel to Saudi Arabia in mid-May, since returning to the White House, Axios reported citing two officials and a source with knowledge of the president's travel.&nbsp;
His decision to visit Saudi on his first foreign trip also points to how close the relationship between the Trump administration and Gulf countries has become.&nbsp;
Earlier on March 6, Trump told reporters in the Oval Office that he would likely visit Saudi Arabia "over the next month and a half".

"This time I said I would go if you put up a trillion dollars to American companies. Meaning the purchase over four years of a trillion dollars. They agreed to do that. So I am gonna be going there," he added.
Notably, Trump's first foreign trip during his previous term was also to Saudi Arabia.

Lower oil prices, they argue, could help offset the impact of other inflation-driving policies, such as tariffs.
