Appeals court rules against transgender military ban

A divided panel of appeals court judges has ruled that a Trump administration policy illegally banned transgender troops from military service. Monday's majority opinion by a three-judge panel from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia circuit partially upholds a March 2025 ruling by U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes in Washington. Reyes concluded that President Donald Trump’s executive order to exclude transgender troops from military service likely violates their constitutional rights. The administration appealed after Reyes issued a preliminary injunction requested by attorneys for six transgender people who are active-duty service members and two others seeking to join the military.

How Trump has used the presidency to benefit himself and allies

President Donald Trump has found multiple ways to harness the presidency to benefit himself. His Justice Department agreed to a $1.776 billion fund that could benefit his allies and guard against future IRS audits of Trump, only for the White House to reconsider the fund after outcry from Congress and the courts. The Air Force purchased drones from a company linked to his son, and Trump traded stocks and bonds while influencing markets with policy actions. His family profited from crypto ventures, including a meme coin and by securing the backing of a firm linked to the UAE. Trump-branded products and events at his properties also generate revenue.

Travel industry condemns Mullin's idea to withhold customs at sanctuary city airports

The travel industry is on edge after Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin reiterated his threat to withdraw U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers from airports in so-called “sanctuary cities” in a move that could jeopardize international flights. The U.S. Travel Association said that Mullin confirmed he is considering withdrawing CPB officers in a meeting where the trade group was pressing its concerns about other proposals the Trump administration is considering that could hamper travel. U.S. Travel and the major airlines quickly condemned the idea, and even Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said it doesn’t make sense to him.

“The pursuit of greater profits cannot justify choices that systematically sacrifice jobs, because the human person is an end, not a means, and the economic order must remain subordinate to human dignity and the common good,” Leo wrote.

Pope Leo XIV urges AI regulation for the common good

Pope Leo XIV has called for robust regulation of artificial intelligence and for its developers to work for the common good rather than profit. He made the call in a sweeping manifesto on safeguarding humankind as the technology impacts everything from work to war. Leo’s first encyclical is called “Magnifica Humanitas” (Magnificent Humanity). Its release Monday has been eagerly awaited ever since history’s first U.S.-born pope announced days after his election that he considered AI to be the biggest challenge facing humanity today.

Melania and Donald Trump call for Jimmy Kimmel to be fired in latest attack on ABC host

First lady accuses the comedian of ‘hateful and violent rhetoric’ in aftermath of White House press dinner shooting

The Guardian

Seems #APnews is definitely being carful about proven facts: “after the chaotic encounter Saturday that resulted in shots being fired”.

I had feeling they didn’t know: “…but the affidavit does not directly say that Allen was responsible for shooting the officer.”

Man charged with attempted assassination of Trump in dinner shooting

The man who authorities say tried to storm the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner with guns and knives has been charged with the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump. Saturday's chaotic encounter resulted in shots being fired, Trump being rushed off the stage and guests ducking underneath their tables. Cole Tomas Allen of Torrance, California, was taken into custody after the shooting. Allen was charged Monday in federal court in Washington and did not enter a plea. A lawyer with the federal defender’s office who is representing Allen notes he has no criminal record and is presumed innocent. Authorities say an officer wearing a bullet-resistant vest was shot in the vest but is expected to recover.

Thank you for the personal reply.

Sadly, I relocated to Africa and the Middle East - entirely outside the USA concepts and ideas of autism and I found it no better. I've also lived in Chile in South America.
