Trump Schedules Third Cabinet Meeting with Musk Expected to Attend

President Donald Trump will convene his Cabinet secretaries for a third known meeting Monday morning, with Elon Musk expected to participate, according to a senior administration official. The official described the 11 a.m. gathering as a "follow up on the last DOGE meeting," referring to a March 6 meeting where Trump established boundaries on the billionaire's authority following criticism of new cuts by the Department of Government Efficiency. Trump indicated on Truth Social that follow-up meetings would occur every two weeks, with Monday's meeting roughly matching that schedule. This meeting comes as Trump's administration confronts legal challenges regarding immigration and prepares to announce new tariffs โ€” while Musk continues to attract scrutiny over his role. On Friday, Trump rejected a report that Musk would receive a briefing on U.S. military plans for a potential China conflict during a Pentagon visit, […]

US Business Activity Increases in March While Business Sentiment Declines

U.S. business activity improved in March, though increasing concerns about import tariffs and government spending reductions continued to negatively impact sentiment and outlook for the remainder of the year. According to Monday's S&P Global survey, a measure of input prices paid by businesses reached its highest level in nearly two years this month, with increases across both manufacturing and services sectors. The data also indicated companies were hesitant to expand their workforce. The activity improvement likely won't ease concerns that the economy faces a period of sluggish growth combined with high inflation. Consumer sentiment has also weakened as households worry about future conditions. Since returning to office, President Donald Trump has implemented numerous tariffs on imported goods, with some duties postponed until next month. The administration has also launched an aggressive initiative to reduce government spending, terminating thousands of federal […]

Major Power Outage Forces Heathrow Airport Closure, Causing Global Flight Disruptions

Britain's Heathrow Airport shut down Friday after a major fire at a nearby electrical substation cut power to the facility, disrupting flight schedules worldwide. Approximately 70 firefighters battled the blaze in west London, which also disabled the airport's backup power system. Large orange flames and black smoke were visible before firefighters contained the fire. By morning, roads around Britain's largest airport were mostly empty except for some departing passengers with luggage. Fire investigators will examine the cause, though Energy Minister Ed Miliband indicated it didn't appear to be foul play. Heathrow announced the airport would remain closed until midnight due to the significant power outage, affecting 1,351 scheduled flights and up to 291,000 passengers. "Passengers are advised not to travel to the airport and should contact their airline for further information," the airport stated. "We apologize for the inconvenience." The […]

U.S. Sentences Man for Assisting Chinese Repatriation Efforts

A real estate businessman has been sentenced to over a year in U.S. prison for helping Chinese authorities pressure an expatriate to return to China. Prosecutors state Quanzhong An participated in "Operation Fox Hunt" - described by Beijing as an initiative to pursue fugitives, but characterized by Washington as transnational repression targeting dissidents abroad. "Quanzhong An acted at the direction of the Chinese government to harass and intimidate individuals living on U.S. soil as part of a scheme to force their repatriation," said Brooklyn-based U.S. Attorney John Durham. China's embassy and consulate did not immediately respond to requests for comment. China has previously denied threatening its nationals in other countries. An, 58, a Chinese citizen with legal U.S. residency, received a 20-month sentence after pleading guilty to acting as an illegal foreign agent. He has already served seven months. His […]

Federal Workers Face Uncertainty After Court-Ordered Reinstatements

Raphael Garcia, a Department of Veterans Affairs analyst who was fired last month during President Donald Trump's initiative to reduce the federal workforce, learned this week of his reinstatement following orders from two federal judges. However, Garcia's professional uncertainty continues. Rather than returning to work, he has been placed on administrative leave while the Trump administration appeals the judge's rulings. Though verbally assured he'll receive back pay during his leave period, the tumultuous early days of Trump's second term have left Garcia skeptical. "I'll believe it when I see it," he told NBC News, noting he won't know if his salary has resumed until late March's pay period ends. Garcia is among 24,000 probationary federal workers caught in career uncertainty as Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency works to transform federal bureaucracy. These employees have experienced abrupt terminations and reinstatements, […]

President Appoints New Prime Minister Amid Economic and Migration Challenges

Tunisian President Kais Saied has dismissed Prime Minister Kamel Maddouri and appointed Sara Zaafarani as his replacement. The change comes as Tunisia faces economic difficulties and migration issues involving people from sub-Saharan Africa. Zaafarani, an engineer who HAS served as Minister of Equipment and Housing since 2021, will become Tunisia's third prime minister in less than two years. Her appointment follows Saied's growing dissatisfaction with his ministers. Last month, he also dismissed Finance Minister Sihem Boughdiri. During a meeting shown on the presidency's Facebook page, Saied called on Zaafarani to improve government coordination and address key challenges. Alongside her appointment, Salah Zouari was named Minister of Equipment. Tunisia's economy continues to struggle, with growth at just 1.4% over the past year and ongoing public finance issues. Shortages of essential goods including sugar, rice, and coffee have increased public frustration. At […]

What Made This Delta Flight FLIP UPSIDE DOWN in Toronto?

A preliminary report by the Transportation Safety Board of Canada reveals that the Delta Air Lines flight that crashed at Toronto's Pearson International Airport on February 17 was descending at a high rate of speed before its disastrous landing. The flight from Minneapolis, operated by Endeavor Air, had 80 people aboard (76 passengers and 4 crew members). Twenty-one people sustained injuries, with two reported as serious. The report released Thursday did not identify a cause for the crash. According to the report's second-by-second breakdown, 3.6 seconds before touchdown, the plane's descent rate increased significantly. A second later, the enhanced ground proximity warning system triggered a "sink rate" alert. Just 1.6 seconds before touchdown, the aircraft was "slightly below the glide slope" - the system guiding controlled descent to the runway. When the right main landing gear contacted the runway, it […]

Mass Kidnapping Horror – 50 Bus Passengers Vanish in Rebel Territory!

Armed individuals have abducted dozens of bus passengers traveling from Addis Ababa in Ethiopia's Oromia region. The incident occurred in Ali Doro, near the location where approximately 100 university students were kidnapped last July. Local media reports indicate the passengers were en route to Debre Markos in the Amhara region when armed men attacked, engaging in gunfire with local security forces. One source suggests multiple buses were targeted, resulting in at least one death and potentially 50 abductions. The Oromo Liberation Army (OLA), a rebel group operating in the area, states it is investigating the reported abductions. The OLA, which seeks self-determination for Ethiopia's Oromo ethnic group, was previously accused of similar kidnappings but denied involvement. The organization has been designated as a terrorist group by the federal parliament. The government has not yet commented on the incident, official responses […]

Senate Backs Rivers State Emergency, Sets Six-Month Review Timeline

The Nigerian Senate has endorsed the state of emergency in Rivers State, exercising its constitutional authority to address the ongoing political crisis. In a closed-door meeting Thursday, senators applied Section 305(2) of the 1999 Constitution, which allows the President to declare emergency rule when governance significantly breaks down. They directed President Bola Tinubu to conduct periodic reviews and consider ending the emergency within six months. The Senate also activated Section 11(4) of the Constitution, enabling the National Assembly to take over legislative responsibilities for Rivers State while elected officials remain suspended. Federal lawmakers will manage the state's legislative functions until stability returns. Additionally, senators announced a committee of prominent citizens to mediate between the conflicting political groups in Rivers, aiming to promote dialogue and permanently resolve the crisis. This decision follows the House of Representatives' earlier approval of the emergency […]

NASA Astronaut Returns Home After Extended Space Mission

NASA astronaut Barry 'Butch' Wilmore has returned to Earth after an unexpected nine-month stay on the International Space Station. His daughter, Daryn Wilmore, announced the news on TikTok, concluding her series "My Dad is Stuck in Space." What was initially planned as a one-week mission was extended to 286 days when Wilmore and fellow astronaut Suni Williams encountered technical issues with their Boeing Starliner spacecraft. The duo successfully splashed off Florida's coast at 5:57 p.m. ET on Tuesday. In her TikTok update, Daryn, wearing a Starliner t-shirt, shared plans for a low-key reunion, including making her father's favorite pecan pie and having a small gathering at her uncle's house. She has prepared a list of activities they previously enjoyed together, hoping to make up for lost time before she returns to school. Following his return, Wilmore will undergo medical tests […]
