Mandelson should never have been ambassador, says Epstein victim's family
NEW YORK – The family of Virginia Giuffre, who became the most prominent victim of Jeffrey Epstein, has told the BBC that Lord Mandelson should never have been given the position of UK ambassador to the United States.In an exclusive interview on Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg, Giuffre's brother Sky Roberts said the appointment "speaks to how deep the corruption goes in our systems".Business Secretary Peter Kyle told the BBC it was "highly unlikely" Lord Mandelson would have been appointed if the extent of his relationship with Epstein was known to those in government.There is no suggestion that Lord Mandelson ever met Giuffre. He said last week, that "perhaps as a gay man", he never sought or was offered introductions to women from Epstein.Lord Mandelson...

Kathy Hochul and Zohran Mamdani
New York Governor Kathy Hochul endorses Zohran Mamdani in NYC mayoral race
NEW YORK — New York Gov. Kathy Hochul on Sunday endorsed New York City Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani, calling him “a leader who is focused on making New York City affordable” despite their disagreements.Hochul’s endorsement, published in The New York Times, makes her the latest high-profile Democrat and the most powerful in the state to back the 33-year-old democratic socialist’s campaign. It also puts new pressure on other high-profile Democrats withholding their backing of Mamdani, notably House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, both Brooklyn residents.The governor’s endorsement breaks from more than two months of cautious distance. She initially refused to endorse Mamdani after he shocked former Gov. Andrew Cuomo in the...

At Iowa's State Fair, many of the conversations revolved around Trump and tariffs
US farmers are being squeezed – and it's testing their deep loyalty to Trump
MOSCOW, Iowa – On a scorchingly hot day in the American Midwest, Tim Maxwell is voicing his fears about the future of farming.The 65-year-old has worked the fields since he was a teenager. He now owns a grain and hog farm near Moscow, Iowa – but he's unsure about its prospects."I'm in a little bit of a worried place," says Maxwell, who wears a baseball cap bearing the logo of a corn company.He is concerned that American farmers aren't able to sell their crops to international markets in the way they could in previous years, in part because of the fallout from President Trump's tariffs."Our yields, crops and weather are pretty good – but our [interest from] markets right now is on a low," he says. "It's going to put stress on some...

WASHINGTON — Delta Air Lines, American Airlines and United Airlines say they have suspended workers for social media posts about last week’s fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk.“We were made aware of Delta employees whose social media content, related to the recent murder of activist Charlie Kirk, went well beyond healthy, respectful debate,” Delta CEO Ed Bastian said in an internal memo shared with CNN.“These social posts stand in stark contrast to our values and our social media policy, and these employees have been suspended pending an investigation,” Bastian said in the memo.In a statement, American Airlines says some employees who posted to “promote such violence on social media were immediately removed from service.”The moves are among the latest corporate blowback on...

Kirk’s assassination is forcing US politicians to make difficult choices about their safety
WASHINGTON – The killing of Charlie Kirk is forcing political figures and the people who protect them to make agonizing choices, balancing whether the public’s access to them is worth the risk in this dangerous national moment.Since Kirk’s assassination, several campaigns or political groups have already called off events out of an abundance of caution. And as the midterm elections approach, candidates will increasingly be forced to weigh their need to connect with constituents and potential voters against the reality of practicing politics at a time of accelerating threats, attempts and slayings.“The arena they just stepped into, those threats — everything — is on the table,” said Rob Savage, a former special agent in charge of the US Secret Service’s Los Angeles Field...

Ryan Routh cut off by judge as trial over attempted Trump assassination begins
MIAMI – Minutes into his opening statement, Ryan Routh, the man accused of trying to assassinate Donald Trump last September, was forced by the judge to end his remarks.Introductory statements are typically used to preview evidence and arguments for the rest of trial. But Routh's were dedicated to his philosophical musings on intent, the history of human evolution, the "need to be kind to one another," and beauty found in "hearthstones worn smooth" by generations of children.He invoked Adolf Hitler and Vladimir Putin, and declared, "Modern trials seem to eliminate all that is human."US District Judge Aileen Cannon interrupted Routh three times to remind him of proper procedure and reprimand him for "making a mockery of this court".
