Residents Push Back as Trump Considers Sending Troops

In Chicago’s South Side, residents say their battle is not just against crime, but for the future of their youth. Driving through neighborhoods marked by high violence, we stopped in Bronzeville at the site of a drive-by shooting last weekend that left seven people wounded. The attack happened just a block away from Chicago Police Headquarters. It was one of many incidents over the Labor Day weekend, during which at least 58 people were shot and eight killed across the city. Rob White, a community coach working with young men trying to leave gang life, said the violence is crushing for residents. “You can imagine how people feel with this happening right under the shadow of a giant police building,” he told us. President Donald Trump has vowed to send National Guard troops into another US city to tackle violent […]

Putin Warns Western Troops in Ukraine Will Be “Legitimate Targets”

Sometimes it is not the words that make the strongest impression, but the reaction. In the Russian Far East, Vladimir Putin issued a stark warning to the West: do not send troops not even peacekeepers — to Ukraine. “If some troops appear there,” Putin declared, “especially now while the fighting’s going on, we proceed from the premise that these will be legitimate targets for destruction.” The audience at the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok erupted in applause, a chilling endorsement from Russian officials and business leaders who welcomed the threat against Western forces. This reaction came just a day after Ukraine’s allies, the so-called Coalition of the Willing, pledged to establish a post-war “reassurance force” for Kyiv. Putin doubled down on his conditions for talks, saying he would meet Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky only in Moscow. “The best place for […]

Donald Trump Warns Venezuela Against Military Jets Near US Warships

Donald Trump has warned that if Venezuelan jets fly over US naval ships and “put us in a dangerous position, they’ll be shot down.” His remarks came after US officials reported that Venezuelan military aircraft flew close to a US vessel off South America for the second time in two days, according to CBS News. The warning follows a recent US strike against what the administration described as a “drug-carrying vessel from Venezuela” operated by a gang, which left 11 people dead. Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro dismissed Washington’s claims, saying that differences between the two countries do not justify a “military conflict.” He stressed, “Venezuela has always been willing to talk, to engage in dialogue, but we demand respect.” Asked by reporters in the Oval Office what would happen if Venezuelan aircraft repeated the maneuver, Trump said Venezuela would be […]

Trump Moves to Blacklist Nations for Wrongful US Detentions

US President Donald Trump on Friday signed an executive order to create a blacklist of countries accused of unjustly detaining American citizens, introducing sweeping penalties including travel bans. The order establishes a new designation — “state sponsors of wrongful detention” — mirroring the existing US list of state sponsors of terrorism. “With this EO you are signing today, you are drawing a line in the sand that US citizens will not be used as bargaining chips,” Trump aide Sebastian Gorka told reporters in the Oval Office. The Trump administration did not immediately disclose the countries likely to be listed, but a senior US official confirmed that China, Iran, and Afghanistan were under review for what Washington calls “persistent hostage diplomacy.” Countries designated under the new system could face sanctions, export controls, and visa bans for officials complicit in wrongful imprisonment.

Angela Rayner Resigns Over £800,000 Tax Row

Angela Rayner has resigned as deputy prime minister, housing secretary, and deputy Labour leader after admitting she failed to pay the correct amount of tax on her £800,000 flat in Hove. Her departure comes after the prime minister’s ethics adviser, Sir Laurie Magnus, concluded she had breached the ministerial code, despite acting “with integrity.” He said Rayner did seek legal advice during the purchase but failed to obtain specialist tax guidance, as recommended. In her resignation letter, Rayner said she accepted she “did not meet the highest standards,” adding: “I deeply regret my decision not to seek additional specialist advice given my role as housing secretary and my complex family arrangements. I take full responsibility for this error. It was never my intention to do anything other than pay the right amount.” The controversy stems from her purchase of the […]

Trump to rename Department of Defense as Department of War

US President Donald Trump is set to sign an executive order on Friday that will temporarily rename the Department of Defense as the Department of War, reviving a title last used more than seven decades ago. The text of the order, reviewed by the BBC, states that the purpose of the change is to “project strength and resolve.” According to the document, the new designation will initially serve as a secondary title while the administration works with Congress to secure approval for a permanent rebranding. Until then, official documents, communications, and branding will carry both names. The potential cost of such a sweeping rebrand remains unclear. The White House has not released estimates, but US media reports suggest the overhaul could cost taxpayers billions of dollars. The change would involve redesigning hundreds of agency seals and emblems, updating email systems, […]

US immigration raid at Hyundai Georgia plant leads to 450 arrests

US immigration authorities carried out a sweeping raid at Hyundai’s massive manufacturing site in Georgia, arresting more than 450 people in what officials described as one of the largest operations of its kind in recent years. The facility, a 3,000-acre complex built by the South Korean automaker to produce electric vehicles, has been operational for only a year. According to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), agents executed a search warrant based on allegations of unlawful employment practices and other serious federal crimes. The raid involved several agencies, including Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). The South Korean foreign ministry confirmed that Korean nationals were among those detained, calling the arrests an “unjust infringement” on their rights. In a statement, it urged Washington to ensure that Korean citizens’ interests were not […]

Putin rejects Western reassurance force in Ukraine after Paris summit

Russian President Vladimir Putin has dismissed Western proposals for a so-called reassurance force in Ukraine, following a Paris summit that brought together 26 of Kyiv’s allies. The plan, championed by French President Emmanuel Macron, aimed to finalise security guarantees to be activated immediately after a potential ceasefire. Macron said the participating countries had committed to supporting Ukraine by land, sea, or air, but he declined to name which nations were involved. He stressed that the force would not engage in direct combat with Russian troops but would instead act as a buffer to prevent renewed aggression. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky welcomed the move, calling it the first concrete step toward safeguarding his country’s future. Putin, however, swiftly rejected the initiative. Speaking at an economic forum in Vladivostok, he warned that any foreign soldiers entering Ukraine would be considered legitimate targets. […]

US jobs market weakens in August as unemployment rises to 4.3%

The US jobs market showed fresh signs of weakness in August, adding to growing concerns about the health of the world’s largest economy. According to the Labor Department, employers created just 22,000 jobs last month, well below expectations, while the unemployment rate edged up from 4.2% to 4.3%. The figures marked the latest in a series of disappointing data releases. Earlier revisions revealed that hiring in May and June was far weaker than initially reported, with June actually recording a job loss — the first monthly decline since 2020. The slowdown underscores a broader cooling trend that began after the post-pandemic rebound. The data virtually guarantees that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates at its upcoming meeting, investors said. “The warning bell that rang in the labour market a month ago just got louder,” noted Olu Sonola, head of […]

Trump Renames Pentagon as ‘Department of War’

President Donald Trump has announced plans to rebrand the Department of Defense as the “Department of War,” a move the White House says is aimed at projecting a stronger image of American military power. According to a White House document released Thursday, the order authorizes use of the new label as a “secondary title” for official correspondence, public communications, ceremonial events, and other non-statutory documents. Defense officials may also be addressed with titles such as “Secretary of War.” The formal legal name of the Pentagon remains the Department of Defense, but Trump said the new label conveys “readiness and resolve.” He is expected to sign the executive order Friday afternoon during an Oval Office event. Trump, who has frequently criticized the Defense Department’s current title as being “too defensive,” argued the change revives a legacy tied to past American victories.“The […]
