President Donald Trump revealed Wednesday how soon an Arc de Triomphe-style monument will be constructed in the nation’s capital to commemorate America’s 250th anniversary in 2026.
Trump on Wednesday said the construction of the monument, nicknamed the «Arc de Trump,» will begin «sometime in the next two months,» according to a report from Politico.
«It hasn’t started yet. It starts sometime in the next two months. It’ll be great. Everyone loves it,» Trump reportedly told the outlet during a phone call from Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Fla. «They love the ballroom too. But they love the Triumphal Arch.»
The newest monument, which resembles Paris’ historic Arc de Triomphe, will be bankrolled privately, with funds left over from the new White House ballroom project, Fox News Digital previously reported.

The exact location of the new landmark has not yet been confirmed, though the report notes it may be situated near the Lincoln Monument.
Details about the amount of time it will take to build, the cost of construction, the funding amount and who is heading the project have not yet been released by the White House.
Trump signed Public Law 116-217 in December 2020 authorizing the Women’s Suffrage National Monument to be built on federal land in Washington, D.C., leading to the subsequent signing of the Women’s Suffrage National Monument Location Act during former President Joe Biden’s final week in office.

The Women’s Suffrage National Monument Foundation (WSNMF) announced Dec. 4 it received final and unanimous approval from the National Capital Planning Commission for a permanent two and a half acre site on the National Mall in Constitution Gardens, according to the foundation’s website.
Foundation leaders noted the women’s suffrage monument went through a «multi-step, rigorous review process,» including gaining approval from the National Capital Memorial Advisory Commission and the Commission of Fine Arts.
The foundation also completed a public comment period with the National Park Service as part of the public scoping process, according to its website.

«The enthusiasm behind this project has been inspiring,» WSNMF President and CEO Anna Laymon wrote in a Dec. 4 statement announcing final approval. «We are so grateful for the dedicated support from so many who made this possible, including President Trump; President Biden; our honorary chairs Mrs. Melania Trump, Dr. Jill Biden, Mrs. Michelle Obama, Mrs. Laura Bush, and Secretary Hillary Clinton; our bipartisan and bicameral Congressional sponsors, Senator Blackburn, Senator Baldwin, Congresswoman Lesko, Congressman Neguse and their dedicated staffs; our incredible Board of Directors; and all our partners and supporters.»
TRUMP BREAKS GROUND ON MASSIVE WHITE HOUSE BALLROOM PROJECT WITH PRIVATE FUNDING FROM ‘PATRIOTS’
The most recent major monument built on the National Mall was the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial, which was completed in 2011.
The granite memorial was inspired by a line from King’s «I Have a Dream» speech, delivered nearby on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial during the «March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom» in 1963.

Un pequeño cambio en el ADN puede cambiar el destino de la sangre. Investigadores de los Estados Unidos y Europa identificaron una variante genética hereditaria que protege contra la leucemia y otros cánceres hematológicos, un hallazgo que abre nuevas posibilidades para prevenir enfermedades graves.
El descubrimiento sugiere que algunas personas tienen una defensa genética natural.
Los científicos comprobaron que este cambio genético limita la multiplicación de clones celulares peligrosos y reduce el riesgo de cáncer de sangre. Replicar este mecanismo podría transformar los tratamientos médicos en el futuro.
El estudio fue dirigido por Gaurav Agarwal y reunió datos de más de 640.000 personas en Estados Unidos y Europa. Fue publicado en la revista Science.
Los investigadores pertenecen a instituciones como el Hospital Infantil de Boston, la Facultad de Medicina de Harvard, el Instituto del Cáncer Dana-Farber, el Instituto Médico Howard Hughes, el Broad Institute del MIT y Harvard, el Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, y el Instituto Nacional del Cáncer de los Estados Unidos. También colaboraron expertos de la Universidad Newcastle del Reino Unido.
El equipo de investigadores se preguntó por qué algunas personas desarrollan cáncer de sangre y otras no, aunque acumulen mutaciones similares en las células madre.
El proceso de clonación hematopoyética permite que ciertos clones de células madre tomen ventaja y se multipliquen, lo que eleva el riesgo de leucemia y enfermedades crónicas.
Con el paso de los años, las mutaciones se acumulan, pero no siempre causan enfermedad. Algunos clones mutados permanecen bajo control o retroceden.
El objetivo fue identificar factores genéticos capaces de frenar la expansión de estos clones y proteger a las personas de desarrollar cáncer.
Los científicos se enfocaron en variantes hereditarias presentes en el ADN y analizaron el genoma completo de cientos de miles de personas.
El reto fue distinguir qué cambios genéticos influyen realmente en el riesgo de cáncer de sangre y cuáles no tienen impacto clínico.
El análisis priorizó las variantes no codificantes, que no modifican la estructura de las proteínas pero pueden regular la actividad de genes clave en las células madre de la sangre.
El equipo del doctor Agarwal identificó la variante «rs17834140-T», que se comporta como una defensa genética ante la clonación hematopoyética y el desarrollo de cánceres sanguíneos.
Esta mutación disminuye el riesgo de padecer CHIP (que es la sigla en inglés de “Hematopoyesis clonal de Potencial Indeterminado), un proceso que predispone a la leucemia.
La variante rs17834140-T reduce la expresión del gen musashi 2 (MSI2), esencial para las células madre sanguíneas. Al bajar la actividad de este gen, la red de apoyo a los clones mutados pierde fuerza y su expansión se debilita.
Los investigadores demostraron en el laboratorio que la mutación interrumpe el sitio de unión del factor GATA-2 en el ADN. Esta interferencia limita la producción de MSI2 y restringe el crecimiento de los clones peligrosos.
La red genética suprimida por la variante se activa en las células madre con mutaciones de alto riesgo y en niños con leucemia mieloide aguda. En estos casos, la actividad de la red se relaciona con una menor supervivencia.
Los investigadores sostuvieron que “el efecto protector de la variante se vincula a un solo cambio en el ADN que debilita la actividad del gen MSI2”.
El mapa genético elaborado por los científicos muestra cómo MSI2 influye en el destino de las células madre y en el dominio clonal de mutaciones asociadas a cáncer.
Los datos sugieren que bloquear MSI2 podría convertirse en una vía para prevenir nuevos casos de cáncer de sangre.
El avance resalta la importancia de compartir datos genéticos para impulsar la investigación médica.
Vijay Sankaran, coautor e investigador en la Universidad de Harvard, afirmó que “la integridad científica mejoró sustancialmente gracias a la difusión y el acceso público” a los datos de secuenciación y estudios GWAS.
Los científicos alertaron sobre la necesidad de validar estos resultados en poblaciones más diversas y continuar el seguimiento en estudios clínicos de largo plazo. El descubrimiento allana el camino para desarrollar medicamentos que imiten el efecto protector de la variante genética.
Los investigadores resaltaron que la mutación “ilumina la regulación post-transcripcional de las células madre humanas y sugiere la inhibición de MSI2 o sus objetivos para la prevención del cáncer de sangre”.

One of President Donald Trump’s most controversial moves in 2025 was his deployment of the National Guard to several major U.S. cities to provide security for federal buildings, public places and around law enforcement operations, including deportation operations.
While popular in some areas, Trump’s deployments were met with fierce resistance in some cities, especially in jurisdictions with «sanctuary» laws shielding immigrants from federal authorities. In some particularly controversial instances, the president went around Democratic governors by federalizing the National Guard or deploying troops from friendly states to blue cities.
In 2025, Trump deployed the National Guard to Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, the Chicago area, Memphis and New Orleans.
Here are the cities where residents may see National Guard troops on their streets in 2026.

Chicago
Despite a setback in the form of a Christmas week Supreme Court ruling denying a request to proceed with immediately deploying the National Guard to Chicago, the White House told Fox News Digital that the Trump administration plans to keep working «day in and day out to safeguard the American public.»
«The President promised the American people he would work tirelessly to enforce our immigration laws and protect federal personnel from violent rioters. He activated the National Guard to protect federal law enforcement officers and to ensure rioters did not destroy federal buildings and property,» White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson said in a statement. «Nothing in today’s ruling detracts from that core agenda.»
With that being said, the Trump administration is likely to continue pushing for National Guard troops to be allowed into Chicago and the legal case is still ongoing.
St. Louis
While announcing a National Guard deployment to Memphis on Sept. 15, Trump hinted at sending troops to the Gateway City, saying, «We have to save St. Louis.»
While speaking with reporters in the Oval Office about the Memphis deployment, Trump said, «We’ll get to St. Louis also.»
The president grouped St. Louis in with Memphis and Chicago as a city suffering from high violent crime and strained local law enforcement, needing federal assistance to restore order.
According to the FBI’s most recent annual crime report, compiled for cities with 50,000+ residents and released in August, St. Louis ranks among the highest in violent crime rates nationally.

New York
While announcing his temporary federal takeover of D.C. in August, Trump suggested he may also intervene in New York, saying, «We have other cities that are very bad. New York has a problem.»
Trump also said, «I’m going to look at New York in a little while.»
At the same time, Trump voiced, «I hope they do a self-clean-up.» He expressed, however, that the rise to power of socialist now Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani may necessitate a deployment to «straighten out the city.»
The president has since met with Mamdani in the Oval Office, in a highly publicized meeting in which the two appeared to have worked through their differences. Trump predicted that Mamdani would be a «great mayor.»
«We have one thing in common,» said Trump. «We want this city of ours that we love to do very well.»
Despite this, the possibility of a National Guard deployment to New York remains should the city begin to spiral out of control under Mamdani’s leadership.

Baltimore
Trump also said that he would send the National Guard to Baltimore to «quickly clean up the crime» if Maryland Democratic Gov. Wes Moore were to say he needs help.
Moore had earlier invited Trump to attend a public safety walk in the crime-ridden city in September, saying in an Aug. 21 letter that the event would provide an opportunity to «discuss strategies for effective public safety policy.»
«As President, I would much prefer that he clean up this crime disaster before I go there for a walk,» Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.
He accused Moore of having a poor record on crime, «unless he fudges his figures on crime like many of the other Blue States are doing.»
Trump added that he did not appreciate the tone of Moore’s invitation.
«But if Wes Moore needs help, like Gavin Newscum did in L.A., I will send in the «troops,» which is being done in nearby DC, and quickly clean up the crime,» Trump wrote. He added that Baltimore ranks among the worst cities in the United States for crime and murder.

California cities
Led by Democratic, pro-sanctuary politicians, America’s most populous state has stood firmly opposed to much of the Trump administration’s actions. California Gov. Gavin Newsom was a fierce critic of Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to Los Angeles over the summer despite ongoing unrest and anti-ICE riots in the city.
Despite the pushback, Trump has signaled his willingness to send the National Guard back to Los Angeles as well as to Oakland and San Francisco.
«We have other cities also that are bad. Very bad,» said the president. «You look at Los Angeles, how bad it is.»

Addressing crime, Trump has said, «Then you have, of course, Baltimore and Oakland. We don’t even mention that anymore. They are so far gone. We are not going to let that happen. We are not going to lose our cities over this.»
Trump also said, «Look at what the Democrats have done to San Francisco. They’ve destroyed it. We can clean that up, too, we’ll clean that one up, too.»
