Trump Demands Powell Step Down as Fed Chair Amid Rate Cut Dispute

President Donald Trump has renewed his call for Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell to resign, escalating tensions over the independence of the US central bank. Trump demanded Powell "resign immediately" on Wednesday following criticism from his administration's top housing regulator. Bill Pulte, director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, posted on X that Powell should be investigated for "political bias" and "deceptive testimony" regarding renovations at the Federal Reserve headquarters in Washington, DC. Responding to Pulte's comments, Trump posted on Truth Social that "Too Late" – his nickname for Powell – should resign. This criticism follows Trump's letter to Powell demanding the central banker lower the benchmark interest rate, currently set at 4.25 to 4.5 percent, by "a lot." Trump has consistently criticized Powell for not supporting faster rate cuts, arguing that the Fed chair's cautious approach constrains economic growth […]

Federal Judge Blocks Trump’s Total Asylum Ban After Border Crackdown

A federal court has determined that President Donald Trump exceeded his constitutional authority by suspending asylum claims at the US southern border as part of his immigration enforcement measures. US District Judge Randolph Moss ruled Wednesday that Trump's actions risked establishing a "presidentially decreed, alternative immigration system" outside congressional oversight. The 128-page decision challenged the administration's interpretation of executive power over immigration law. Upon taking office for his second term on January 20, Trump issued a proclamation citing the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) to justify the asylum suspension. The president argued that his authority "necessarily includes the right to deny the physical entry of aliens into the United States and impose restrictions on access to portions of the immigration system." Judge Moss, appointed by former President Barack Obama, rejected this interpretation in his ruling. "Nothing in the INA or […]

Pentagon Claims US Strikes Crippled Iran Nuclear Program For Two Years

The Pentagon has stated that recent U.S. military strikes against Iran have set back the country's nuclear program by one to two years, supporting President Donald Trump's assertions about the operation's effectiveness. Defense Department spokesperson Sean Parnell announced Wednesday that three targeted Iranian nuclear facilities were destroyed during what he called a "bold operation." "We have degraded their programme by one to two years at least," Parnell told reporters. "Intel assessments inside the department assess that." Since B-2 stealth bombers conducted strikes on June 21, Trump has repeatedly defended the attacks against suggestions they failed to significantly damage Iran's nuclear capabilities. The president has maintained that Iran's nuclear program was "obliterated like nobody's ever seen before." However, conflicting assessments have emerged. An initial U.S. intelligence evaluation leaked to media outlets last month suggested the strikes only delayed Iran's nuclear work […]

Diddy Jury Splits On Sex Trafficking But Convicts On Prostitution Charges

A federal jury delivered a split verdict in the trial of Sean "Diddy" Combs, finding him guilty of transporting individuals for prostitution while acquitting him on more serious sex trafficking and racketeering charges. After more than seven weeks of testimony about drug-fueled celebrity parties, the jury ruled that prosecutors failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that Combs used "force, fraud, or coercion" to compel former girlfriends into commercial sex acts during events known as "freak-offs." The case centered on testimony from two women: singer Casandra "Cassie" Ventura Fine and a woman identified as "Jane," both former girlfriends of Combs. Prosecutors argued Combs used financial influence, violence and blackmail threats to coerce the women into performing sex acts at his parties. Key evidence included March 2016 surveillance video showing Combs beating Ventura in a hotel hallway and dragging her away. Ventura […]
