This is how the world now sees the American president: as a pedophile desperately exploiting his role as commander-in-chief to obscure the fact that he preyed on children with his long-time pal Jeffrey Epstein. "There isn't a single country where Trump did not take advantage of the situation to enrich himself without ever forgetting his family. A Boeing plane offered by Qatar," he said, referring to the $400 million jet that Qatar "gifted" to Trump. "Investment in all Gulf projects or elsewhere. Stock market manipulation that only a few insiders benefit from." "Any one of these conflicts of interest would have caused an immediate procedure of impeachment here," Malhuret. "But we are not here. We are in MAGA's America, where public business is conducted in favor of private interests." Read more
Russia took satellite images of a U.S. air base in Saudi Arabia three times in the days before Iran attacked the site and wounded American troops, according to a summary of Ukrainian intelligence shared with NBC News by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

One-hundred percent."

The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost nearly 800 points today, and the broader benchmark S&P 500 Index just posted its fifth straight weekly loss, marking its worst streak since 2022. The culprit is the war in Iran, which has spread to other parts of the Middle East and lifted crude oil futures back over $99 per barrel, as of this writing. The market started the week on a promising note, as President Donald Trump publicly said the U.S. had a strong intent to reach an agreement with Iran and end the conflict. The U.S. reportedly sent Iranian officials a 15-point plan to end the war. However, mixed signals persisted all week, with Trump suggesting a deal was close, while Iran, through its state media and its foreign minister, said it had no plans to negotiate with the U.S. Meanwhile, the U.S. deployed troops to the Middle East, leaving some wondering if further escalation is ahead.

Democratic lawmakers and one Republican colleague on Friday demanded answers from Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent about why sanctioned Russian lawmakers visited the U.S. and toured the U.S. Capitol building this week, a visit organized by Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.). The letter, signed by Reps. Dina Titus (D-Nev.), Brian Fitzpatrick (R-Pa.), Marcy Kaptur (D-Ohio), Mike Quigley (D-Ill.), Jim Costa (D-Calif.) and Chellie Pingree (D-Maine), called the lawmakers' visit to meet with some members of Congress and other officials "deeply concerning." "Because these individuals are subject to U.S. sanctions imposed in response to Russia's full-scale, unjustified invasion of Ukraine, their entry into the United States would have required the issuance of sanctions waivers," the letter reads.
President Donald Trump is toying with renaming one of the world's most critical shipping routes after -- who else -- himself. Speaking at an investor forum in Miami on Friday night, Trump casually referred to the Strait of Hormuz as the "Strait of Trump," before quickly correcting himself, then insisting it wasn't a slip.
"Under the Labor government of Israeli PM Gold Meir, the Mossad attempted to expel 60,000 Palestinians to Paraguay soon after occupying the Gaza Strip in 1967. Tel Aviv would pay authoritarian General Alfredo Stroessner's Paraguayan government a fee of $33 per deportee, including an advance of $350,000 for the first 10,000. Almost six decades later, Israel's methods and objectives to ethnically cleanse Palestinians remain eerily similar."

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. once made a peculiar pit stop to collect a dead raccoon's penis, according to New York Post investigative reporter Isabel Vincent. Vincent relayed the strange tale this week in an excerpt from her forthcoming book, "RFK Jr.: The Fall and Rise." Her reporting is based on three of Kennedy's private journals spanning more than 1,200 pages. In a passage exploring Kennedy's fascination with animals, Vincent revealed an unusual event chronicled in one of his journals: "In his diary, he writes about cutting off the penis of a road-killed raccoon in 2001, while his kids waited patiently in the car,' so that he could examine it later."

VPOTUS JD Vance: "So, we actually think that [Congresswoman] Ilhan Omar (D-MN) definitely committed immigration fraud against the United States of America. And I talked to Stephen Miller about this actually recently. "We're trying to look at what the remedies are. That's the thing that we're trying to figure out is what are the legal remedies now that we know that she's committed immigration fraud. "How do you go after her? How do you investigate her? How do you actually do the thing? How do you build the case necessary to get some justice for the American people?"

In a remarkable 24 hours in Washington, House Republicans snubbed a bipartisan funding deal cut by their own Senate GOP counterparts and instead approved an entirely different plan " prolonging the Department of Homeland Security shutdown. Then, they left town. Now, there's no end in sight for the 42-day shutdown that has hobbled airports across the country with TSA shortages. With the House GOP's plan going nowhere in the Senate, even Republicans acknowledge it's not clear how to end the standoff now until there's a breakthrough with at least some Democrats. Read more
