<\/a>A new lawsuit has landed in the American political bloodstream with the force of a seismic shock. It accuses Donald Trump of participating in a trafficking enterprise that plaintiffs describe as \u201cidentical in every material respect to the Epstein operation\u201d (Doe v. Trump et al., 2025). The suit also names Elon Musk, Bill Gates, and several organizations connected to them. Jared Kushner, President Trump\u2019s son-in-law, has been traveling the world to participate in high-stakes foreign policy negotiations on behalf of the president. On Tuesday, Kushner traveled to Moscow and sat across the table from Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss a peace deal to end the war in Ukraine. The entire United States delegation consisted only of Kushner and Special Envoy Steve Witkoff. Kushner and Witkoff were joined at the table by an interpreter. … A jury found Honduras\u2019s former President guilty. Why set him free? On Tuesday, Donald Trump pardoned a convicted drug trafficker who happens to be the former president of Honduras.<\/p>\n There’s a Network State angle.<\/p>\n Juan Orlando Hern\u00e1ndez, who was convicted of conspiring to smuggle over 400 tons of cocaine<\/a> into the United States, is the right-wing politician who supported the creation of Prospera, the Network State city on the Honduran island of Roat\u00e1n.<\/p>\n Hern\u00e1ndez, who served two terms as president of Honduras, championed special economic zones where investors could set their own tax, labor and regulatory rules under long-term legal guarantees. Cuellar had faced a dozen charges of bribery, money laundering and conspiracy.<\/p>\n … (Jennifer Rubin more…)<\/a><\/p>\n Good morning! Trump convened his cabinet this week for what can only be described as a live-action infomercial in which every secretary took turns praising Trump\u2019s unmatched genius while he ad-libbed numbers like a man auditioning for \u201cWhose Line Is It Anyway: Fiscal Policy Edition.\u201d The star of the show was his new moral math: apparently blowing up a Venezuelan speedboat now \u201csaves\u201d 25,000 to 45,000 American lives, depending on how big a number he feels like saying in the moment. Forget epidemiology, we\u2019re doing governance by vibes and multiplication tables scrawled on a Waffle House napkin. \u201cI\u2019m a U.S. citizen, please help me!\u201d she cries. \u201cWhy are you doing this to me?\u201d Woman dragged from car, tackled to the ground, and handcuffed. Agents only confirmed her citizenship after checking her They initiated force before they confirmed who she was. The Mississippi flood of 1927<\/a> was one of America\u2019s greatest natural disasters. Some 27,000 square miles were inundated, in some cases by 30 feet of water. Hundreds, maybe thousands, died \u2014 many of the victims were poor and Black, and their deaths went unrecorded. Around 700,000 people were displaced \u2014 equivalent to about 2 million people today, adjusting for population growth.<\/p>\n How did America respond? Initially, President Calvin Coolidge was adamantly opposed to any federal role in disaster relief, declaring that \u201cThe Government is not an insurer of its citizens against the hazard of the elements.\u201d His refusal to provide aid was, however, deeply unpopular, and he eventually gave in to demands from Congress to deliver government aid.

\nAfter the voters rejected Republican candidates in the early November elections, Republicans vowed they would address affordability issues. Trump initially moved in that direction but now is rejecting the idea that his economic policies have caused hardship, although news dropped today from Automatic Data Processing (ADP), a private human resources management company, that the U.S. lost about 32,000 jobs last month. The losses were primarily in small businesses, which are often considered a bellwether for the rest of the economy.

\nDHS later released a statement claiming the woman had not rolled her window down \u201call the way.\u201d That explanation sidesteps the actual constitutional question.
