Trump's phone call to FIFA president Infantino to overturn Balogun's red card didn't just bend a soccer rule — it burned 80 years of American soft power. The US built global goodwill by being the most powerful country that chose not to be a bully. Now it's the bully.
An ICE officer shot and killed a motorist in Biddeford, Maine — but the victim wasn't even the person named on the warrant. Sen. Angus King got that information directly from Homeland Security Secretary Mark Wayne Mullen, raising urgent questions about accountability.
Biddeford, Maine is a city of just over 20,000 people with deep immigrant roots — and within hours of the ICE shooting, hundreds of protesters took to the streets. A community that felt insulated from this kind of violence suddenly found itself at the center of a national crisis.
Nine months into the fiscal year, the U.S. is more than $1.3 trillion in the red — and the interest bill alone has already surpassed $1 trillion. That single line item now costs more than virtually every government program except Social Security.
Marco Rubio is going after the International Criminal Court — not just opposing it, but actively working to tear it down.

The Supreme Court struck down the president's sweeping import taxes, and now the government is footing an $80 billion refund bill. While the administration scrambles to impose new tariffs, the fiscal fallout from the old ones is still being tallied.
Olivia couldn't eat in front of anyone for her entire teenage life. Then Love Island gave her no choice. Week by week she pushed through the terror of putting food on her own plate until it simply stopped being a thing — and a disorder that defined her youth just vanished.
