Compelled by the FCC chairman, CBS will provide unedited transcripts and camera footage of its Kamala Harris interview. This action stems from a $10 billion lawsuit filed by Donald Trump, alleging deceptive editing to favor Harris. The network maintains its editing practices were standard and denies wrongdoing, while press freedom advocates closely monitor the situation and potential settlement talks. Trump’s continued pursuit of the lawsuit, despite his election win, highlights the ongoing tension between the former president and media outlets. Similar past settlements between Trump and other media organizations have involved substantial financial payouts.

Elon Musk, working with Donald Trump to reduce the federal budget, announced plans to shut down USAID, citing its irreparable state. This decision follows the removal of USAID security officials who resisted Musk’s team’s access to restricted areas. The agency, the world’s largest single donor of foreign aid ($72 billion in FY2023), faces potential elimination under Trump’s “America First” policy, impacting numerous vital global programs. Musk also claimed substantial government fraud, potentially totaling $1 trillion in savings, though he offered no supporting evidence. Concerns remain regarding Musk’s access to sensitive Treasury Department systems.

A massive protest against Trump’s deportation policies erupted in downtown Los Angeles, causing major gridlock and shutting down a significant portion of the 101 Freeway. The sheer scale of the demonstration underscores a growing unease and anger towards the administration’s immigration policies. This level of public dissent suggests that the impact of these policies is being felt deeply within the community, mobilizing a significant portion of the population to take to the streets.
The protest’s disruption of traffic, while undoubtedly inconvenient for many commuters, also served to highlight the gravity of the situation for those involved. The organizers likely understood the disruptive nature of their action, using it as a form of amplified protest; essentially, turning the gridlock into a visual representation of the political standstill they’re fighting against.… Continue reading
President Trump threatened “powerful” US action against Panama over China’s influence near the Panama Canal, vowing to “take it back.” Following a meeting between US Secretary of State Rubio and Panamanian President Mulino, Panama agreed to end its participation in China’s Belt and Road Initiative and is auditing a Chinese-linked port company. Mulino asserted Panama’s sovereignty over the canal, while also expressing willingness to increase US investment and collaborate on migrant repatriation, with the US covering all costs. The 1977 treaty allows US intervention if the canal’s operation is disrupted, though Mulino downplayed the risk of US military action.

Ukraine views the US proposal for a truce and elections as fundamentally flawed, a “failed plan” that doesn’t address the core issues of the conflict. The proposal, as it stands, offers Russia a significant advantage, allowing them time to recover and rearm for a potentially even more devastating second wave of attacks. A simple ceasefire would essentially provide Putin with a much-needed respite, enabling him to rebuild his military forces and launch a renewed offensive. This isn’t just about a return to the conflict; it’s about allowing for continued aggressive, incremental incursions known as salami tactics.
The idea of holding elections under these circumstances is equally problematic.… Continue reading
Democrats are demanding answers from Senator Rubio regarding a highly unusual visit to the USAID headquarters by individuals claiming to represent Dogecoin. This visit has raised serious concerns about national security and the potential compromise of sensitive information. The Democrats report receiving information that these individuals, who apparently lacked proper security clearances, accessed classified areas within the facility.
This alleged unauthorized access to classified spaces is incredibly concerning. The potential exposure of sensitive files, including personally identifiable information of Americans working with USAID, represents a significant breach of security protocols and raises serious questions about the adequacy of safeguards in place to protect national security information.… Continue reading
