trump sure is an embarrassment to the United States of America... Last week, the White House blew past its own deadline of imposing sanctions on Russia for continuing its three-year invasion of Ukraine, and then, in a misguided effort to clean up that mistake, President Donald Trump gifted Russian President Vladimir Putin a one-on-one meeting in Alaska. It was impossible to make sense of what Trump expected to gain by doing so. It’s not even clear what Trump wants, other than a Nobel Peace Prize.

NPR reviewed photos of the documents taken by one of the guests, who NPR agreed not to identify because the guest said they feared retaliation.

The Justice Department announced late last week that Brandon Kelley and Stacey Kelley have been charged with felony murder and two counts of second-degree murder.

There were no reports of any untoward incident, Philippine coast guard Commodore Jay Tarriela said, citing information from U.S. officials and a Philippine surveillance flight.

What an absolutely stupid change... Veterans will no longer be exempt from work requirement rules for food stamps under President Trump’s “big, beautiful” spending and tax law, leaving many worried about how they will find employment. The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), which is the federal aid program formerly known as food stamps, currently allows work exemptions for veterans, but that will soon end under legislation signed into law last month.

Adding to those partisan concerns, it turns out Antoni—who also happens to have a giant picture of Adolf Hitler’s favorite battleship hanging in his office—was at the Capitol on the day a mob of Trump supporters violently tried to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.

China said Wednesday it warned and “drove away” a U.S. destroyer that had sailed near the coast of the disputed Scarborough Shoal in the South China Sea — one of the most valuable shipping lanes globally.

Despite this, the prosecutor’s office opted not to charge Copeland, noting in a statement that military service seemed like a “good option” for him and that he would be supervised. The office also cited his lack of prior criminal history, as no charges were filed in Lopez or her classmates’ case.

Throughout his two presidencies, Trump has treated the military as a prop for making statements about which issues he cares about—and which he doesn’t. He deployed the D.C. National Guard during protests after the murder of George Floyd in summer 2020. Earlier this summer, he federalized the California National Guard and sent Marines to Los Angeles to assist with immigration enforcement, but they were sent home when it became clear that they had nothing to do there. Yet according to testimony before the January 6 panel, Trump did not deploy the D.C. National Guard when an armed mob was sacking the U.S. Capitol in 2021 to try to help Trump hold on to power.

The winning poems and author biographies can be found at https://www.history.navy.mil/research/archives/resources-for-the-fleet/decklogs/new-years-contest.html 3. The focus of the New Year's Day Deck Log contest was to celebrate the voices of our Sailors and to preserve a Navy tradition. A deck log is the official record maintained by all commissioned U.S. Navy vessels. While regulations normally restrict the types of entries in logbooks, the Navy has long held the tradition of the Midnight New Year's Poem. The first entry of the New Year, written in verse, allows Sailors to express their creativity about the experiences of shipboard life and their pride in their command. The contest also serves to remind the Fleet of the importance of the deck log as a historical document; one that preserves for future generations the actions and voices of our United States Sailors. 4. Congratulations to the winners, and we look forward to your entries next year! 5. For examples of poems and more information, see NHHC's website: https://www.history.navy.mil/content/history/nhhc/research/archives/resources-for-the-fleet/deck-logs/new-years-contest.html 6.
