Gurpreet Singh was handcuffed, his legs shackled and a chain tied around his waist. He was led on to the tarmac in Texas by US Border Patrol, towards a waiting C-17 military transport aircraft.

Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency continues to rip through the federal bureaucracy. Certainly, the backlash is growing, but given the size of the U.S. debt, it is either austerity now on our terms or a far more chaotic accounting later. There will be pain. When Greece faced austerity in 2010, its economy shrank by a quarter, and unemployment exceeded 30%. Within a few years, its economy was growing, as was per capita income. The same crowds who protested the center-right for cuts now reward it for restarting Greece’s economic engine.
While many Americans may complain about efforts to return fiscal responsibility to government and to jump-start the economy by reducing

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) announced a further wave of contract terminations late Saturday, noting that they also identified thousands of cases where more than $300 million in loans were granted to children.
The announcements come as the Elon Musk-led agency continues to root out waste, fraud and corruption in the federal government.
DOGE said it identified that the Small Business Administration (SBA) granted nearly 5,600 loans for $312 million to borrowers whose only listed owner was 11 years old or younger at the time of the loan.

Liberal Evanston, Illinois, a northern suburb of Chicago, is the first U.S city to issue slavery reparations.
The city committed $20 million to the program to come from tax collected from cannabis sales.
The first group of persons eligible for $25,000 payments are current Evanston residents who identify as Black or African American and were at least 18 years of age between 1919 and 1969. Evanston refers to this group as “ancestors.”
During a Reparations Committee March listening session, a pause of the program was announced after projections based on 2019 came in lower than expected.

The bill now awaits the signature of Republican Governor Spencer Cox, who has already signaled his support.
For years, Utah has been one of the few Republican-led states that embraced universal mail-in voting, which automatically sends ballots to every registered voter. But amid growing concerns about election integrity, particularly from voters who have watched election chaos unfold in other states, Utah lawmakers are taking action

Independent Veterans of America CEO Paul Rieckhoff claimed Friday on MSNBC’s “The 11th Hour” that Ukrainians are “more American” than the American people.
Rieckhoff said, “Donald Trump has completely betrayed Ukraine. He has stabbed them in the back and every week he needs to twist it and drive it deeper with a new move that cuts more of their legs out from under them.” Host Stephanie Ruhle asked, “What do you say to the person who says, I don’t care about Ukraine, I want Donald Trump to stand up for Russia?”
