Harry's US visa records unsealed after drug claims
NEW YORK — Documents relating to the Duke of Sussex's US visa application have been unsealed in court.They are heavily redacted, however, and no details have been given as to what Prince Harry put on his immigration form.A US court had ordered the release of the documents based on a freedom of information request by the Heritage Foundation, a conservative US think tank in Washington DC.The foundation alleges that the prince concealed his past use of drugs, which should have disqualified him from obtaining a US visa.The allegations center around his claims in his memoir Spare, where he referred to taking cocaine, marijuana and psychedelic mushrooms.Application forms for US visas specifically ask about current and past drug use.Admissions of drug use can lead to non-immigrant and...

US deports hundreds of Venezuelans despite court order
WASHINGTON — More than 200 Venezuelans alleged by the White House to be gang members have been deported from the US to a supermax prison in El Salvador, even as a US judge blocked the removals.El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele wrote on social media that 238 members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua had arrived in the Central American country, along with 23 members of the international MS-13 gang, on Sunday morning.Neither the US government nor El Salvador has identified the detainees, nor provided details of their alleged criminality or gang membership.A federal judge's order prevented the Trump administration from invoking a centuries-old wartime law to justify some of the deportations, but the flights had already departed."Oopsie... Too late," posted Bukele on...
