Trump signals to Erdoğan US could lift ban on F-35 sales to Turkey
WASHINGTON – US President Donald Trump held talks with Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan at the White House on Thursday and signalled that Washington might soon lift its hold on sales of advanced fighter jets to Ankara.During Trump's first term, the US removed Turkey from its flagship F-35 fighter jet programme after Turkey, a NATO ally, purchased an air defence system from Russia.US officials worried that Turkey's use of the S-400 surface-to-air missile system could be used to gather data on the capabilities of the F-35 and that the information could end up in Russian hands.Trump started his two-hour meeting with Erdoğan by offering hope that a resolution to the matter could be found during the leaders' talks."He needs certain things, and we need certain...

Trump demands investigation into alleged ‘triple sabotage’ at the United Nations
NEW YORK – US President Donald Trump is demanding an investigation following what he described as a “triple sabotage” during his visit to the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday, taking to social media to claim that a series of technical mishaps, involving a stopped escalator, a teleprompter failure and audio issues, were deliberate acts meant to undermine him. “A REAL DISGRACE took place at the United Nations yesterday — Not one, not two, but three very sinister events!” Trump said in a Truth Social post on Wednesday laying out the series of events. During his speech on Tuesday morning in New York, Trump opened by referencing the technical issues, saying, “These are the two things I got from the United Nations: a bad escalator and a bad teleprompter.” The...

Colombian President Gustavo Petro
Colombia's president calls US attacks on alleged drug boats 'act of tyranny'
BOGOTA – US airstrikes on alleged drug-trafficking boats in the Caribbean Sea are an "act of tyranny", Colombia's President Gustavo Petro told the BBC in an interview where he also called for criminal proceedings against US officials if investigations find Colombians were killed in the attacks.President Donald Trump has cast the strikes, which have reportedly killed 17 since they began this month, as needed to stop the flow of fentanyl and other illegal narcotics into the US.Legal experts and lawmakers, though, have questioned if they violate international human rights laws."Why launch a missile if you could simply stop the boat and arrest the crew?" said Petro. "That's what one would call murder."Speaking to the BBC on Wednesday, Petro said there...

White House threatens mass firings if government shuts down
WASHINGTON – The White House budget office is telling federal agencies to prepare plans for mass firings in the event of a government shutdown, with instructions to target programs they are not legally required to continue.The directive, outlined in an Office of Management and Budget memo to agencies and obtained by CNN, represents a sharp break from the government’s handling of past shutdown scenarios — and an escalation by the Trump administration amid a standoff with congressional Democrats over federal funding.In the memo, OMB directs agencies to identify programs whose funds will lapse if Congress fails to meet the September 30 funding deadline and that have no alternative source of funding. Those programs should then be targeted for sweeping reductions in force that could...

Trump links autism to acetaminophen use during pregnancy, despite decades of evidence it’s safe
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump announced Monday that the US Food and Drug Administration will notify doctors that the use of Tylenol during pregnancy can be associated with a “very increased risk of autism,” despite decades of evidence that it is safe.“They are strongly recommending that women limit Tylenol use during pregnancy unless medically necessary,” such as to treat fever, “if you can’t tough it out,” Trump said.Experts say there are multiple causes of autism, and the science showing a connection between autism and Tylenol is not settled.Without treatment, a fever can be dangerous for both the fetus and the pregnant person, experts say. Risks include miscarriage, birth defects and high blood pressure.At some point during pregnancy, most people use acetaminophen,...
