About the People Mentioned
Donald Trump
Donald John Trump, born June 14, 1946, in Queens, New York, is an American businessman, media personality, and politician. He graduated from the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School in 1968 with a degree in economics. In 1971, he took over his family’s real estate business, renaming it the Trump Organization, through which he expanded into building and managing skyscrapers, hotels, casinos, and golf courses. Trump gained widespread fame as the host of the reality TV show *The Apprentice* from 2004 to 2015, which helped establish his public persona as a successful entrepreneur. Trump entered politics as a Republican and was elected the 45th president of the United States, serving from 2017 to 2021. His presidency was marked by significant policy actions including tax cuts, deregulation, the appointment of three Supreme Court justices, renegotiation of trade agreements (notably replacing NAFTA with the USMCA), and a focus on immigration control including border wall expansion. He withdrew the U.S. from international agreements such as the Paris Climate Accord and the Iran nuclear deal, and engaged in a trade war with China. His administration’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic was criticized for downplaying the virus’s severity. Trump was impeached twice by the House of Representatives—first in 2019 for abuse of power and obstruction, and again in 2021 for incitement of insurrection—but was acquitted by the Senate both times. After losing the 2020 election to Joe Biden, Trump challenged the results, culminating in the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot. He remains a central figure in American politics, having won the 2024 presidential election and returned as the 47th president in 2025, continuing to promote policies aimed at economic growth, border security, and military strength[1][2][3][4].

**Reuters** is a leading global news agency founded in 1851 by Paul Julius Reuter, a German immigrant who innovatively combined telegraphy and carrier pigeons to transmit financial and news information rapidly between cities like London and Paris[1][2][4]. Starting from a modest office in London’s financial district, Reuters quickly gained a reputation for speed, accuracy, and impartiality, exemplified by its early scoop on the death of U.S. President Abraham Lincoln in 1865, beating competitors by hours[1][2]. Historically, Reuters evolved from a commercial news service focused on stock prices for banks and brokerage houses to a comprehensive international newswire serving newspapers worldwide. Its expansion reflected the growing importance of timely, reliable news in business and global affairs[2][3]. The company’s independence and editorial integrity have been safeguarded since 1947 by the Reuters Trust Principles, which commit Reuters to unbiased and accurate reporting[4]. Today, Reuters operates as part of Thomson Reuters, a Canadian multinational headquartered in Toronto. It is recognized as the largest global news agency, with over 2,600 journalists in 165 countries producing around 2 million unique news stories annually in 12 languages[5]. Reuters embraces cutting-edge technology to deliver breaking news, multimedia, and authenticated content to media, technology firms, governments, and corporations, ensuring fast and seamless distribution[5]. Notable achievements include winning over 300 journalism awards in the last decade, such as the 2024 Pulitzer Prizes for National Reporting and Breaking News Photography, and the George Polk Award for Business Reporting, underscoring its leadership in business and technology journalism[5].
