Haley Robson answers reporters' questions during a news conference wth other alleged victims of disgraced financier and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, outside the US Capitol on September 3, 2025
Epstein files push hits a ‘boiling point’ in Congress as Trump dismisses it as a hoax
WASHINGTON — A bipartisan group of lawmakers stood outside the US Capitol on Wednesday alongside nearly a dozen women who said they’d been abused by the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein with a poignant message: This is not a hoax.That included a direct plea from one of the survivors, Anouska de Georgiou, to the president: “President Trump, you have so much influence and power in this situation. Please use that influence and power to help us.”And an invite extended to him from another abuse survivor, Haley Robson: “I cordially invite you to the Capitol to meet me in person so you can understand this is not a hoax. We are real human beings. This is real trauma.”Yet just moments after those survivors spoke, President Donald Trump delivered his own remarks, dismissing...

Judge says Trump administration unlawfully blocked $2 billion from Harvard
WASHINGTON — A federal judge on Wednesday gave Harvard University a landmark victory in its fight against the Trump administration, siding with the Ivy League school in its effort to restore more than $2 billion in federal funding for research frozen by the White House.The decision from US District Judge Allison Burroughs rejects the administration’s argument that it was targeting the university due to antisemitism on the school’s campus.“A review of the administrative record makes it difficult to conclude anything other than that defendants used antisemitism as a smokescreen for a targeted, ideologically-motivated assault on this country’s premier universities,” wrote Burroughs, an appointee of former President Barack Obama.“Their actions have jeopardized decades of research...

Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo said Wednesday that the state will work toward ending all vaccine mandates, which would include those for school enrollment
Florida plans to end vaccine mandates statewide, including for schoolchildren
MIAMI — Florida will move to end all vaccine mandates in the state, Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo announced Wednesday.The move would make Florida the first state to end a longstanding – and constitutionally upheld – practice of requiring certain vaccines for school students.The state health department will immediately move to end all non-statutory mandates in the state, Ladapo said at a news conference. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who was also at the event, said state lawmakers would then look into developing a legislative package to end any remaining mandates.Ladapo said that every vaccine mandate “is wrong and drips with disdain and slavery.”All 50 states have had school immunization requirements since the beginning of the 1980s, with incoming kindergartners needing...

California National Guard soldiers stand guard at a federal building on 14 June 2025 in Los Angeles, California
Trump's use of National Guard in Los Angeles was illegal, judge rules
LOS ANGELES — A federal judge in California has ruled that the way President Donald Trump deployed the National Guard to Los Angeles this summer was illegal.The ruling comes as Trump seeks to use National Guard troops in order to crack down on crime in other US cities and support immigration enforcement.US District Judge Charles Breyer said Trump violated the Posse Comitatus Act, which limits the power of the federal government to use military force for domestic matters.White House spokeswoman Anna Kelly said that "a rogue judge is trying to usurp the authority of the Commander-in-Chief to protect American cities from violence and destruction".The ruling is on hold until 12 September.The Trump administration will likely appeal against the ruling."The President is committed...

Maduro accuses Trump administration of pursuing regime change amid US naval buildup in the Caribbean
CARACAS — Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro said he would constitutionally declare a “republic in arms” if US forces deployed to Caribbean attacked the South American country.The Venezuelan leader made the comments at a press conference on Monday after the Trump administration moved to boost its maritime defences, expanding deployments in the waters off Venezuela, in a bid to combat threats from Latin American drug cartels.Washington has not signalled any planned land incursion by the thousands of personnel being deployed, yet Maduro’s government has responded by deploying over 15,000 troops along its coasts and border with neighbouring Colombia, as well as by urging Venezuelans to enlist in a civilian militia.“In the face of this maximum military pressure, we have declared...
