However, supplying eggs to the U.S. would not be simple for foreign producers — and it’s not due to political tensions or the…
TAPACHULA, Mexico (AP) — Ana Esquivel no longer feels her heart race every time she spots a police officer. “We’ve been told they won’t harass or mistreat us here, but back home, if a male name appears on your ID, you could end up detained overnight,” said the 50-year-old transgender woman, who fled Cuba out of fear for her safety and arrived in Mexico earlier this year. Esquivel settled in the southern city of Tapachula, hoping to avoid the Trump administration’s harsh migration policies and eventually reach the United States. But unlike many who turned back after their Border Patrol…

Senator Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., issued a warning on Sunday about the potentially dire consequences for Ukraine if the Trump administration fails to resume military aid and intelligence sharing with the country. During an interview on Fox News Sunday, Graham emphasized the gravity of the situation, stating, “If we pull the plug on Ukraine while the fighting is still ongoing, it would be worse than Afghanistan.” He continued, “Until we have a ceasefire, I would ensure Ukraine receives the intelligence and weapons they need to defend themselves.” Graham also announced plans to introduce sanctions on Russia’s banking and energy sectors next…

All three major indexes have now dropped more than 3% this week, with the S&P 500 erasing the gains it had made since Trump’s election in November. The index is down 6% from its all-time high in January, the month Trump took office. Thursday’s decline reversed a brief rally on Wednesday…

The Trump administration will request that the U.S. Supreme Court overturn a lower court decision that ordered the reinstatement of a government ethics watchdog who had been fired by the president. Hampton Dellinger, the head of the whistleblower protection agency Office of Special Counsel, filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration after he was dismissed earlier this month. A district judge had ruled that Dellinger, a Biden appointee, should be temporarily reinstated during the ongoing legal proceedings. The Trump administration’s attempt to block this order on procedural grounds was rejected by a D.C. Circuit panel on Saturday. The Justice Department…
