Judge overturns Trump firing of personnel board member, citing lack of justification

Cathy Harris

A federal judge on Tuesday reinstated a member of the board that oversees personnel disputes for federal workers, ruling President Donald Trump wasn't authorized to remove her without justification.

This case represents a constitutional clash between the branches of government because Trump claims the authority to hire and fire everyone in the executive branch while Congress sets limits on the removal of leaders of independent agencies such as the Merit Systems Protection Board.

Members of the board, designed to protect federal civil service workers from being fired for issues unrelated to their performance, are appointed to seven-year terms and can be removed under a 1978 statute “only for inefficiency, neglect of duty, or malfeasance in office."

Trump wants Palestinians out of Gaza. Here are Egypt's plans to keep them there

Trump wants Palestinians out Gaza

Egypt is formulating plans for a regional solution to the aftermath of the devastating war in Gaza that counter President Donald Trump's idea of permanently displacing Palestinians from the territory to neighboring Arab states.

Egypt, which borders both Gaza and Israel, views any mass displacement of Palestinians into its territory as a red line.

Leaders from Arab League states are meeting in Cairo on Tuesday to jointly reject calls for displacement and to discuss counter-proposals spearheaded by Egypt in close coordination with powerhouse Saudi Arabia and others in the region.

The meeting, however, comes as the ceasefire in Gaza between Israel and Hamas is at risk of unraveling, threatening Egypt's plans for the reconstruction of Gaza after the war.

New deputy FBI director Dan Bongino previously called for imprisoning Democrats

Dan BonginoFor more than 100 years, the role of FBI deputy director has been filled by a career agent with previous bureau experience and an insider's understanding of day-to-day operations of federal law enforcement. As the FBI's own website puts it, the deputy director "oversees all FBI domestic and international investigative and intelligence activities."

In a break with tradition, the Trump administration instead tapped Dan Bongino, a former U.S. Secret Service agent turned pro-Trump influencer.

For the last several years Bongino has ranted against the FBI on his podcast, saying it should be "disbanded immediately" and calling agents "thugs." Bongino will now help run federal law enforcement as the number two official at the FBI, behind Director Kash Patel.

Patel himself has expressed a number of conspiratorial and hard-right views and is the first FBI director to win confirmation with the support of only one political party.

Pope Francis Suffers New Breathing Crises, Is Back On Noninvasive Ventilation

Pope Francis suffers setbackPope Francis suffered two new episodes of acute respiratory crises Monday and was put back on noninvasive mechanical ventilation, the Vatican said.

Francis had inhaled “copious” amounts of mucus in another setback in what has become a more than two-week battle to overcome a complex respiratory infection and pneumonia.

In a late update, the Vatican said the episodes were caused by a “significant accumulation” of mucus in his lungs and bronchial spasms. “Two bronchoscopies were performed with the need for aspiration of copious secretions,” the Vatican said.

Francis remained alert, oriented and cooperated with medical personnel. The prognosis remained guarded.

Israel Faces Backlash After Halting All Aid Into Gaza As A Method Of Warfare

Humanitarian aid cut off to GazaIsrael is facing immense global backlash after blocking all aid from entering Gaza as a method of warfare — a move reminiscent of the military offensive’s earlier stages and one that international humanitarian law unequivocally says is a war crime.

On Sunday, the Israeli government stopped the entry of all food and other humanitarian assistance into the decimated Palestinian territory after the first phase of Israel’s ceasefire agreement with Hamas expired. Israeli officials warned Hamas of “additional consequences” if the militant group didn’t accept a last-minute ceasefire extension that deviates from the previously agreed-upon deal.

“I kept saying, there has to be more. There has to be more,” Bondi said Saturday. “I was assured that’s it.”

Epstein, who hobnobbed with celebrities, royalty and other powerful people, died by suicide in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.
