The United States has conducted military strikes against the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) in Nigeria. Concurrently, former President Donald Trump has made public statements regarding the release of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) is in the process of reviewing over one million new documents concerning Epstein, a process that may take several weeks. Despite pressure to release all files, the DOJ has faced scrutiny over the redactions and the removal of photos from the initial batches of documents.
A letter allegedly from Epstein to Larry Nassar, referencing Trump, has been declared "fake" by the DOJ. These developments occur amidst rising tensions with Venezuela, with Trump issuing warnings to its leader, Nicolás Maduro, and the US Coast Guard intercepting oil tankers.
Additionally, the Supreme Court has blocked the National Guard's deployment to Chicago, and there have been reports of the Kennedy Center adding Trump's name to its building and the White House installing plaques mocking former presidents.
