Republicans slam Trump’s firing of Bureau of Labor Statistics chief
President claimed that recently released figures showing jobs slowdown was ‘rigged’ to make him look bad Senior Republican lawmakers are condemning the decision of their party leader, Donald Trump, to fire the leading US labor market statistician after a report that showed the national economy added just 73,000 jobs – far fewer than expected – in July. The disappointing figures – coupled with a downward revision of the two previous months amounting to 258,000 fewer jobs and data showing that economic output and consumer spending slowed in the first half of the year – point to an overall economic deterioration in the US.

Trump says Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’s past comments make pardoning him ‘more difficult’
They partied together and called each other friends in the past, but in 2020 Combs said Trump should be ‘banished’ Donald Trump says he considers Sean '“Diddy” Combs “sort of half-innocent” despite his criminal conviction in federal court in July – but the president called pardoning the music mogul “more difficult” because of past criticism. Trump spoke about Combs during an interview on Friday night on the friendly environs of Newsmax. Combs was found guilty on 2 July of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, with each leaving him facing up to 10 years in prison – but he was acquitted of more serious sex-trafficking and racketeering conspiracy charges.

Durham disclosures further undermine Gabbard’s claims of plot against Trump
Declassified document contains deflating conclusion for DNI director that Russian spies were behind key 2016 emails Tulsi Gabbard, the director of US national intelligence, hoped to uncover evidence that Barack Obama and his national security team conspired to undermine Donald Trump in a slow-motion coup. But if her crusade was aimed at proving that Obama embarked on a “treasonous conspiracy” to falsely show that Russia intervened in the 2016 presidential election to help Trump, Gabbard made a mistake. A previously classified annexe to a report by another special counsel, John Durham – appointed towards the end of Trump’s first presidency – has further undermined Gabbard’s case.

VIP contract introduced by Tory peer left government owed £24m
DHSC rejected as ‘unusable’ PPE supplied by company linked to Lord Chadlington, which later went bust They were the lucrative deals that epitomised the “VIP lane” set up by Boris Johnson’s government during the Covid pandemic, which gave priority for personal protective equipment (PPE) contracts to people with political connections. Peter Gummer, a former PR boss who has been Tory peer Lord Chadlington since 1996, had smooth access at his fingertips. The erstwhile adviser to John Major has “close personal friendships with many senior Conservative party politicians”, he has said, and as president of the Witney constituency association in the Cotswolds is “close friends” with its most notable MP: David Cameron.

India to still buy oil from Russia despite Trump threats, say officials

How the courts became the biggest roadblock to Trump’s plans
Judges issued about 35 nationwide injunctions blocking various Trump orders before the supreme court stepped in, according to independent analysis from the Guardian A federal judge’s ruling last week to maintain a sweeping nationwide ban on Donald Trump’s birthright citizenship order highlights the dizzying legal battle that has defined the administration’s opening months, with courts issuing dozens of such sweeping orders to systematically halt abrasive elements of the president’s agenda. US district judge Leo Sorokin in Boston rejected Trump administration arguments to narrow his nationwide injunction, a court order that prohibits the federal government from enforcing a law or policy against anyone across the nation, and not just the people who filed the legal challenge.

Good, mad and ugly: the US economy’s performance under Trump – in charts
Despite president’s claims of an economic boom, picture is chaotic – healthy GDP growth but weak jobs figures According to Donald Trump’s White House, the US economy is booming, inflation is dead and jobs are surging. A blizzard of economic reports has cast a pall on such claims in recent days. This week’s data on Trump’s early economic record was mixed – good, mad and ugly – with jobs numbers so weak he reached for the catchphrase he once used to build himself into a reality TV star: you’re fired.

Public urged to help catch gangs bringing drugs on ‘mother ships’ to UK coast
Crime agency says there were more than 60 investigations into at-sea drop-offs last year with 34 people arrested How a high-speed ocean chase led to an £18m cocaine seizure in Cornwall Law enforcement agencies have urged people living in coastal communities in the UK to help them catch drug gangs that are using ever more imaginative methods to get vast quantities of cocaine into Britain. They have warned that gangs are favouring a method called “at-sea drop-offs” (Asdos) in which packages of drugs are released into the ocean from “mother ships” for smaller vessels to pick up and take into the UK via small coves and harbours.

How a high-speed ocean chase led to an £18m cocaine seizure in Cornwall
Operation also shed unique light on backgrounds of those involved in running drugs into UK from ‘mother ships’ Public urged to help catch gangs bringing drugs on ‘mother ships’ to UK coast To the surfers and dog walkers on the Cornish beach it must have looked like a scene from a crime thriller. An ocean chase ending with two boats crunching aground on the sand, a stumbling attempt by three men to escape into the dunes, dramatic arrests and the discovery of millions of pounds of cocaine. For the investigators it was the start of a painstaking investigation that has shone a unique light into a tactic used by South American drug gangs and British organised crime groups known as at-sea drop-offs or Asdos, in which bales of cocaine fitted with GPS trackers are dumped at sea from a transatlantic “mother” ships to be picked up by small vessels and smuggled into the UK via quiet coves and harbours.

For months they have watched as their children waste away. “All my children have lost nearly half of their body weight,” said Jamil Mughari, a 38-year-old from Maghazi in central Gaza. “My daughter, who is five years old, now weighs only 11kg. My son Mohammad has become just skin and bones. All my children are like this. Continue reading...


The inside story of the Murdoch editor taking on Donald Trump

The White House quickly concluded a full-force response was required. It was Tuesday 15 July. The Wall Street Journal had approached Trump’s team, stating it planned to publish allegations that Trump had composed a crude poem and doodle as part of a collection compiled for Jeffrey Epstein’s 50th birthday.

In wartime, demonstrations in Ukraine can never be more than a peaceful protest
Zelenskyy forced to U-turn on anti-corruption bodies but protesters know unrest only plays into Russia’s hands Once a decade, Ukraine has a moment in which street protests redefine the country’s political direction. The Orange revolution of 2004; the Maidan revolution of 2014; and now, over the past 10 days, the first major wave of protest since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion. A series of unexpectedly boisterous and well-attended demonstrations forced Volodymyr Zelenskyy to execute a swift U-turn on his decision to scrap the independence of two anti-corruption bodies. On Thursday, MPs reversed the contentious changes they had adopted a week previously. Outside the parliament building, crowds whooped and cheered as the result of the vote was announced.
