This includes information about veterans who were awarded the Medal of Honor, the nation’s highest military recognition, as reported by military news outlet Task & Purpose.

Arlington National Cemetery, which is managed by the Army and is the final resting place for approximately 400,000 veterans, was established after the U.S. Civil War on the former estate of Confederate General Robert E. Lee. Missing Content and Broken LinksVisitors to the cemetery’s website noticed that internal links to pages dedicated to "Notable Graves" […]

Trump’s Birthright Citizenship Order Reaches the Supreme Court

Lawyers for President Trump asked the Supreme Court on Thursday to lift a nationwide pause imposed on the president’s order ending birthright citizenship for the children of undocumented immigrants and foreign residents. The move represents the first time the legal wrangling over the president’s order to end birthright citizenship has reached the Supreme Court. If the Trump administration succeeds, the policy could immediately go into effect in some parts of the country. Three federal courts, in Massachusetts, Maryland and Washington State, had issued directives temporarily pausing the order, which was signed by Mr. Trump on his first day in office and declared that citizenship would be denied to babies who do not have at least one parent who is a U.S. citizen or legal permanent resident. That would include children born to people who crossed into the country without permission. The Trump administration’s emergency […]

Khalil Sues Columbia and Lawmakers to Keep Activists’ Names Secret

Mahmoud Khalil, the Columbia University graduate detained by the Trump administration last weekend, and seven current students asked a federal court on Thursday to block the school from producing student disciplinary records to a House committee that demanded them last month. The committee’s request and the school’s compliance with it would violate the First Amendment rights of Mr. Khalil and the students and the university’s obligation to protect student privacy, the lawsuit said. The seven current students also asked the court to allow them to proceed anonymously and are referred to in the lawsuit with pseudonyms like Sally Roe and Ned Noe. Last month, the House Committee on Education and Workforce sent a letter to Dr. Katrina Armstrong, Columbia’s interim president, and the university board chairs, David Greenwald and Claire Shipman, that said “numerous antisemitic incidents” had taken place. It demanded […]

USAID Staff Under Pressure to Shred and Burn Classified Documents Amid Agency Dismantling

Amid the ongoing dismantling of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), employees were instructed to shred and burn classified documents and personnel files. The directive, sent via email by Acting Executive Secretary Erica Y. Carr, instructed staff to dispose of sensitive materials in Washington, D.C. offices. The event was organized for an all-day disposal process, with staff told to shred documents first and burn the rest once the shredder was unavailable.The move alarmed employees and labor unions, especially as USAID faces legal challenges for its reorganization under the Trump administration. Critics, including the American Foreign Service Association (AFSA), raised concerns about the legality of destroying government records, which are vital for transparency and legal processes. The email’s lack of formal details raised further alarms, as federal law mandates the preservation of certain documents.USAID, a major target of the Trump […]

US: Pro-Palestinian student activist Mahmoud Khalil arrested

Federal immigration agents in the United States have arrested a Palestinian graduate student who played a prominent role in pro-Palestinian protests at the Columbia University in New York, following President Donald Trump's pledge to deport foreign anti-Israel student demonstrators. Mahmoud Khalil, a student of the university's School of International and Public Affairs, was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on Sunday, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said on social media platform X.

Tanker and cargo vessel collide off UK coast, coastguard says

Britain’s coastguard has launched an emergency response after a collision between an oil tanker and cargo vessel in the North Sea, off England’s northeastern coast. The UK coastguard said it has sent a helicopter and lifeboats from nearby towns, as well as “vessels with fire-fighting capability,” to respond to the incident. “A coastguard rescue helicopter from Humberside was called, alongside lifeboats from Skegness, Bridlington, Maplethorpe [sic] and Cleethorpes, an HM Coastguard fixed-wing aircraft, and nearby vessels with firefighting capability,” it said. The incident is believed to involve a US-flagged tanker called the Stena Immaculate, which was at anchor off the coast near the city of Hull, and a container ship called the Solong -which is sailing under the flag of Madeira, an autonomous region of Portugal - according to the ship tracking tool VesselFinder. A flurry of high-speed ships and […]

Plan to Return Russian Diplomats to U.S. Poses Espionage Risk

As it moves to transform U.S. relations with Russia, the Trump administration is talking with Moscow about readmitting potentially scores of Russian diplomats into the United States after years of expulsions. But the good-will gesture, which would be reciprocated by Moscow, could be a kind of Trojan horse, experts and diplomats warn, as the Kremlin is likely to dispatch spies posing as diplomats to restore its diminished espionage capabilities within the United States. U.S. and Russian officials met in Istanbul last month to discuss returning more diplomats to each other’s countries after years of tit-for-tat expulsions and the shuttering of diplomatic facilities. The midlevel talks, part of a rapid rapprochement between the Kremlin and the White House under President Trump, took place at the U.S. consul’s residence. Days earlier in Riyadh, a U.S. delegation headed by Secretary of State Marco Rubio […]

Florida opens criminal investigation into Tate brothers

Florida has launched a criminal investigation into British-American influencers Andrew and Tristan Tate, who flew to the state last week from Romania, where they faced rape and human-trafficking charges. Florida's attorney general, James Uthmeier, said investigators have issued search warrants and subpoenas as part of a "now-active" inquiry. In the US, the brothers also face a civil suit from a woman alleging they coerced her into sex work, and then defamed her after she gave evidence to Romanian authorities. They strongly deny all the allegations against them. A former kickboxer and self-described misogynist who appeared on UK TV show Big Brother, Andrew Tate has millions of followers online. Andrew, 38, and his brother Tristan, 36, face separate charges in the UK of rape and human trafficking. They deny those allegations too. Uthmeier, a Republican, said in Tuesday's statement: "Last week, […]

Trump says he is ‘just getting started’ in speech to US Congress

Six weeks into his presidency, Donald Trump came to a US Capitol controlled by his Republican Party to take a lengthy victory lap. "We have accomplished more in 43 days than most administrations accomplished in four years or eight years, and we are just getting started," he told the joint session of Congress. In typical Trumpian hyperbole, he said that "many" believed his to be the most successful start to a presidency in US history. He noted what he said was a change in the national mood toward "pride" and "confidence". He compared himself to George Washington, and boasted about the size of his electoral victory. The whirlwind start to his presidency offered plenty of material for Trump to cover, and he didn't shy away from it. He ticked through a lengthy list of tangible accomplishments – hundreds of executive […]
