Andrew Cuomo
Trump backs Cuomo for New York City mayor, threatens to cut funding if Mamdani wins
NEW YORK — US President Donald Trump has endorsed Andrew Cuomo in the New York City mayor's race, urging voters not to elect left-wing front-runner Zohran Mamdani."Whether you personally like Andrew Cuomo or not, you really have no choice. You must vote for him, and hope he does a fantastic job," Trump posted on Truth Social on Monday evening. "He is capable of it, Mamdani is not!"The president earlier said he would be reluctant to send more than "the very minimum" level of federal funding to his hometown of New York if Mamdani was elected.This echoed comments he made in a television interview on Sunday, during which he referred to Mamdani as a communist - a label that Mamdani rejects."It's gonna be hard for me as the president to give a lot of money to New York," Trump said in...

Trump administration will tap emergency fund to pay partial food stamp benefits
WASHINGTON — US President Donald Trump's administration has said it will provide reduced food aid to more than 42 million Americans, as the government shutdown this week heads toward becoming the longest ever with no resolution in sight.The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) said in a court filing that Americans who receive food assistance will get half their normal monthly allotment, after the government dipped into emergency funding.Judges had given the Trump administration until Monday to provide a plan for how it would pay out Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (Snap) benefits, also known as food stamps.Funding for the program has been in limbo due to the more-than-month-long shutdown.While individual US states administer the benefits, the programme relies on money from...

World awaits landmark US Supreme Court decision on Trump's tariffs
World awaits landmark US Supreme Court decision on Trump's tariffsWASHINGTON — What may be the biggest battle yet in Donald Trump's trade war is about to begin.The Trump administration heads to the US Supreme Court on Wednesday, facing off against small businesses and a group of states who contend most of the tariffs it has put in place are illegal and should be struck down.If the court agrees with them, Trump's trade strategy would be upended, including the sweeping global tariffs he first announced in April. The government would also likely have to refund some of the billions of dollars it has collected through the tariffs, which are taxes on imports.The final decision from the justices will come after what could be months of poring over the arguments and discussing the...

Trump says he doubts US will go to war with Venezuela
WASHINGTON — Donald Trump has played down the possibility of a US war with Venezuela, but suggested Nicolás Maduro's days as the country's president are numbered.Asked if the US was going to war against Venezuela, the US president told CBS' 60 Minutes: "I doubt it. I don't think so. But they've been treating us very badly."His comments come as the US continues to launch strikes on alleged drug-smuggling boats in the Caribbean. The Trump administration says the strikes are necessary to stem the flow of drugs into the US.Trump rejected suggestions that the US action was not about stopping narcotics, but aimed at ousting Maduro, a long-time Trump opponent, saying it was about "many things".At least 64 people have been killed by US strikes in the Caribbean and...

Xi and Trump find temporary truce as China plays longer game
BEIJING — Donald Trump came away from his meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping full of bombastic optimism.He called it a "great success" and rated it 12, on a scale of 1 to 10. China was less enthusiastic. Beijing's initial statement sounds like an instruction manual, with Xi urging teams on both sides to "follow up as soon as possible".Trump is after a deal that could happen "pretty soon", while Beijing, it appears, wants to keep talking because it's playing the long game.There was a more detailed second Chinese statement that echoed what Trump had said on board Air Force One.Among other things, the US would lower tariffs on Chinese imports, and China would suspend controls on the export of rare earths, critical minerals without which you cannot make smartphones, electric...
