The judge, Juan Merchan, reserved ruling from the bench. But he appeared deeply unconvinced by arguments from Trumpas lead lawyer Todd Blanche that a series of social media posts were just responses to political attacks on Trump and therefore permitted.

aBlanda or aabsolutely breathtakinga? Our readers are divided over Swiftas epically long, richly detailed new album
As someone who has been a Swiftie for over a decade, my initial impression is that this album is one of her best lyrically, but production-wise it can get a bit repetitive by the end. While Folklore, Evermore and Midnights were full of either fictional tales or vague reminiscences, The Tortured Poets Department is a clear return to her old style of extremely personal, confessional songwriting, but still retaining the poetic lyricism sheas acquired in recent years. Some critics might find the album boring or confusing, but I think the fans familiar with her past work will have an easier time understanding the little details and references, and will have a great time analysing them.

Rescued from Cashas low ebb in the early 1990s, this fun, lightweight song is a long way from the moody recordings with Rick Rubin he soon turned towards

Head been dropped by Columbia Records after 28 years and a brief and turbulent period with Mercury had yielded mixed artistic dividends and indifferent sales.

You might consider it an era in Cashas artistic life best forgotten, but posthumous retrospection has a way of recalibrating history: just as David Bowieas 1990s output has been significantly upgraded since his death, so a collection of Johnny Cash songwriting demos that no label wanted in 1993 emerges 31 years later, heralded as a major new release.

The internet is rife with speculation about the real-life stalker and real-life abuser from the Netflix hit. Is this show about exploitation starting to seem uncomfortably careless a even exploitative?
Baby Reindeer was only released a little over a week ago, and already it has become a sensation. Richard Gaddas adaptation of his 2019 Edinburgh festival one-man show, which in turn was a dramatisation of the ordeals he had been through at the hands of a stalker and a powerful abuser respectively, has not only been the most watched Netflix show in the UK, but made the top 10 in 12 other countries.
And quite right too, since itas as gripping and queasy and uncomfortable a show as youare ever likely to see. But unintended consequences can come with success. The narrative surrounding Baby Reindeer has moved away from the show this week and into the real world. Besides its lead, the show is essentially about two people: a middle-aged woman who spent years inundating Gadd with thousands of unwanted messages to the detriment of his wellbeing, and a successful older writer who subjected Gadd to a prolonged period of sexual abuse. And while Baby Reindeer attempted to gloss over the true identity of these figures, the internet has, unfortunately, been busy.

The huge success of her memoir has turbocharged the Scottish comedianas career, with midlife, Catholicism and marriage in her withering sights
Cynicism is now and then expressed about the phenomenon of comedians writing books. Rare is the instance of a comic finding more success on the page than at the microphone. Step forward, then, Fern Brady, whose memoir Strong Female Character, about her experience as an undiagnosed autistic woman, has met with awards and widespread acclaim a and seems to have turbocharged the Scotas standup career too. One assumes the bookas success was a factor in securing Brady gigs at next monthas Netflix Is a Joke festival in Los Angeles, and this new special on the streamer too a whose title, Autistic Bikini Queen, invites fans of the memoir to come savour more of the same.
Is that what theyall get? Well, theyall certainly get a potent hit of the 37-year-oldas unsentimental personality, as Brady a filmed at a Bristol performance last year a launches into spiky riffs on marriage and relationships. Thereas not much, or at least not directly, on her experience of autism. The topic is efficiently dispatched in the opening five minutes with a droll gag about the idea that her neurodiversity is aa superpowera. Thereas also a joke about her undiagnosed condition revealing itself in Bradyas squeamishness about touching or hugging her mum, which sounded to this viewer less like a symptom of autism than of Scottishness.

A scheme to allow British under-30s to live and work in the EU has been flatly rejected. Why punish them for older votersa mistakes?
Only those born before 1998 could vote on Brexit, so there is no conceivable way of knowing which way todayas 18- to 30-year-olds would have felt about it. Oh, except there is: 70% of 18- to 24-year-olds think leaving the EU was a bad idea. Of the 25- to 49-year-olds, 66% also think we were wrong to leave. If you can bear to drag your mind back to the immediate aftermath of Brexit, youall recall that words like aoverwhelminga and avasta were completely debased by their use in conjunction with majorities that were actually wafer-thin. So letas just say most young people are remainers.
For a long time, politics has dealt with the young remainer as it does with the rest of us; ignore us for long enough, and weall go away. If the Brexit argument had had any foundation a if it had brought trading or other benefits, if it had caused only negligible difficulties and those of the teething variety a then that would probably have worked.

There will be a sigh of relief in No 10 with the passing of the Rwanda bill, as well as a degree of frustration. Having to steward another migration bill through parliament was not part of the governmentas plan.
With the Rwanda bill passing on to the statute book, overriding the supreme court judgment that Rwanda is not a safe country to which to send people seeking sanctuary, the government now hopes it can finally get on with locking up and then removing those seeking safety on our shores. The prime minister told a hastily arranged press conference on Monday morning that the first flight would not take off for a10 or 12 weeksa (having previously said it would be in spring). Officials are privately describing it as a aproof of concepta flight a this means focusing on having an initial flight to test how legally watertight the new laws are.

With his claims of a asicknote culturea, the prime minister is scapegoating those worst affected by 14 years of Conservative rule
When a prime minister knows he is heading for electoral wipeout, he has one of two options. He can choose dignified statesmanship, using his remaining months in power to bring about as much unity and stability as possible. Or he can choose desperation, grasping for votes by scapegoating marginalised people, and leaving division and misery in his wake.
Rishi Sunak has gone for the second option. On Friday, he announced a new crackdown on disability benefits that has been described by charities as aa full-on assault on disabled peoplea. The country has a asicknote culturea that needs to be tackled, the prime minister said. Britain acanat afforda its record levels of welfare spending and itas anot faira on the taxpayer.

There is no evidence for the governmentas claim that deportations will astop the boatsa
The capitulation of the House of Lords over the governmentas Rwanda bill was predictable a even if some opponents had hoped against hope that peers might force a climbdown. As of now, UK law states that Rwanda is a asafe countrya, making it possible for ministers to send asylum seekers there. The shameful course of action embarked on late last year, after the supreme court ruled the deportation policy unlawful, has thus concluded. Two years after Boris Johnson first announced the plan, Rishi Sunak is set to try again.
From parliament the focus now swings back to the courts, where lawyers will try to have individuals removed from flight lists. The law allows for this if they face areal, imminent and foreseeable risk of serious irreversible harma from being sent to Rwanda a which some undoubtedly will. Mr Sunakas calculation is that the policy makes political sense despite this and the APS1.8m estimated initial cost per deportee. Its appeal is two-pronged, and combines the fuelling of xenophobic sentiment among voters a by ensuring that irregular migration stays in the news a with papering over cracks in the Tory party between hard-right populists and what remains of the liberal centre-right.

David Lammy says the UK needs a refreshed foreign policy based on aprogressive realisma (Labouras foreign policy will be realistic about us as a nation, not nostalgic about what we used to be, 17 April). This is nowhere more true than in Africa where, in many countries, the UK is seen as untrustworthy and shortsighted, short of ideas and cash, petty and not strategic. Spending the aid budget on refugees at home, hoarding vaccines during the pandemic, not living up to commitments on climate finance, ignoring wars in Africa because others are amore importanta a all these policies and many more have influenced how we are seen.
A refreshed approach needs to provide a clean break with the past. It canat claim to be different but follow the same set of rules. It needs to be radical, bold, honest, holistic and cross-government. To break with our past, we need to take full responsibility for it. That means having an honest discussion about colonialism and reparations. It means ensuring all items in UK museums and other public institutions stolen during the colonial period are returned. It also means we meet all our commitments on climate adaptation finance and provide significant support for loss and damage. And we should, finally, give the Chagos Islands, the last British colony in Africa, back to Mauritius, thus allowing Chagossians to return to their homes.

As our small fishing boat slows to a halt in a shallow bay south-east of Puerto Ayora, Santa Cruz, in the GalA!pagos Islands, a green turtle surfaces next to us, followed by a second, then a third a few metres away. A spotted eagle ray glides underneath the vessel.
The skipper, Don Nelson, steps on to the black volcanic reef, slippery with algae. We follow, past exposed mangrove roots and up on to higher ground. Pelicans swooping into the trees and small birds, perching on branches, ignore our approach.

For decades, mountain caribou a an ecotype of woodland caribou that once ranged from Alaska down to Montana and Idaho a have suffered catastrophic decline. Experts have long cited widespread habitat degradation and increased predation from wolves as the main reasons for these losses.

The internet is rife with speculation about the real-life stalker and real-life abuser from the Netflix hit. Is this show about exploitation starting to seem uncomfortably careless a even exploitative?
Baby Reindeer was only released a little over a week ago, and already it has become a sensation. Richard Gaddas adaptation of his 2019 Edinburgh festival one-man show, which in turn was a dramatisation of the ordeals he had been through at the hands of a stalker and a powerful abuser respectively, has not only been the most watched Netflix show in the UK, but made the top 10 in 12 other countries.
And quite right too, since itas as gripping and queasy and uncomfortable a show as youare ever likely to see. But unintended consequences can come with success. The narrative surrounding Baby Reindeer has moved away from the show this week and into the real world. Besides its lead, the show is essentially about two people: a middle-aged woman who spent years inundating Gadd with thousands of unwanted messages to the detriment of his wellbeing, and a successful older writer who subjected Gadd to a prolonged period of sexual abuse. And while Baby Reindeer attempted to gloss over the true identity of these figures, the internet has, unfortunately, been busy.

As someone who has been a Swiftie for over a decade, my initial impression is that this album is one of her best lyrically, but production-wise it can get a bit repetitive by the end. While Folklore, Evermore and Midnights were full of either fictional tales or vague reminiscences, The Tortured Poets Department is a clear return to her old style of extremely personal, confessional songwriting, but still retaining the poetic lyricism sheas acquired in recent years. Some critics might find the album boring or confusing, but I think the fans familiar with her past work will have an easier time understanding the little details and references, and will have a great time analysing them.

If you can bear to drag your mind back to the immediate aftermath of Brexit, youall recall that words like aoverwhelminga and avasta were completely debased by their use in conjunction with majorities that were actually wafer-thin.

For a long time, politics has dealt with the young remainer as it does with the rest of us; ignore us for long enough, and weall go away.

Meanwhile, a record heatwave is the latest deadly extreme weather event.
The US had hoped to maintain the military agreement despite last summeras coup, part of a wave of military power grabs across the central Sahel and the wider region. French troops had already been expelled, with France earlier withdrawing from Mali and Burkina Faso. Malias regime also ordered an end to the UN stabilisation mission. Western departures come alongside the growing presence of Russian mercenaries, including the Wagner group.

- FBIas botching of Nassar allegations prompts $138.7m settlement
- Settlement runs total compensation for victims to roughly $1bn
The US justice department announced a $138.7m settlement on Tuesday with more than 100 people who accused the FBI of grossly mishandling allegations of sexual assault against Larry Nassar in 2015 and 2016, a critical time gap that allowed the sports doctor to continue to prey on victims before his arrest.
When combined with other settlements, roughly $1bn now has been set aside by various organizations to compensate hundreds of women who said Nassar assaulted them under the guise of treatment for sports injuries.

As the end of his career draws ever closer, the ailing 14-time French Open champion faces a race against time to find form
Towards the end of last week, before most of the 192 players in the Madrid Open main draw singles had even touched down in the Spanish capital, Rafael Nadal was already pounding balls on the courts of the Caja MA!gica in preparation for the coming tournament.
The four-times championas early arrival made sense. He is, after all, in a race against time to find at least a semblance of form before itas too late. Not only is he tasked with somehow finding his feet after so many injuries, but this is it. Nadal may fast be approaching his endgame and he will likely compete at an ATP tournament on home soil for the final time in Madrid over the next two weeks. There will be no do-overs.

aBlanda or aabsolutely breathtakinga? Our readers are divided over Swiftas epically long, richly detailed new album
As someone who has been a Swiftie for over a decade, my initial impression is that this album is one of her best lyrically, but production-wise it can get a bit repetitive by the end. While Folklore, Evermore and Midnights were full of either fictional tales or vague reminiscences, The Tortured Poets Department is a clear return to her old style of extremely personal, confessional songwriting, but still retaining the poetic lyricism sheas acquired in recent years. Some critics might find the album boring or confusing, but I think the fans familiar with her past work will have an easier time understanding the little details and references, and will have a great time analysing them.

Rescued from Cashas low ebb in the early 1990s, this fun, lightweight song is a long way from the moody recordings with Rick Rubin he soon turned towards
In the great American saga of Johnny Cash, the early 90s are held to be among his lowest ebbs: the lull that made the triumphant final act of his career a the American Recordings series with Rick Rubin, critical acclaim, Grammy awards, platinum sales and all a seem all the more startling. Head been dropped by Columbia Records after 28 years and a brief and turbulent period with Mercury had yielded mixed artistic dividends and indifferent sales. One of country musicas Mount Rushmore figures was reduced to recording Christmas songs for a now defunct budget label called Laserlight Digital.
You might consider it an era in Cashas artistic life best forgotten, but posthumous retrospection has a way of recalibrating history: just as David Bowieas 1990s output has been significantly upgraded since his death, so a collection of Johnny Cash songwriting demos that no label wanted in 1993 emerges 31 years later, heralded as a major new release.

The internet is rife with speculation about the real-life stalker and real-life abuser from the Netflix hit. Is this show about exploitation starting to seem uncomfortably careless a even exploitative?
Baby Reindeer was only released a little over a week ago, and already it has become a sensation. Richard Gaddas adaptation of his 2019 Edinburgh festival one-man show, which in turn was a dramatisation of the ordeals he had been through at the hands of a stalker and a powerful abuser respectively, has not only been the most watched Netflix show in the UK, but made the top 10 in 12 other countries.
And quite right too, since itas as gripping and queasy and uncomfortable a show as youare ever likely to see. But unintended consequences can come with success. The narrative surrounding Baby Reindeer has moved away from the show this week and into the real world. Besides its lead, the show is essentially about two people: a middle-aged woman who spent years inundating Gadd with thousands of unwanted messages to the detriment of his wellbeing, and a successful older writer who subjected Gadd to a prolonged period of sexual abuse. And while Baby Reindeer attempted to gloss over the true identity of these figures, the internet has, unfortunately, been busy.

The huge success of her memoir has turbocharged the Scottish comedianas career, with midlife, Catholicism and marriage in her withering sights
Cynicism is now and then expressed about the phenomenon of comedians writing books. Rare is the instance of a comic finding more success on the page than at the microphone. Step forward, then, Fern Brady, whose memoir Strong Female Character, about her experience as an undiagnosed autistic woman, has met with awards and widespread acclaim a and seems to have turbocharged the Scotas standup career too. One assumes the bookas success was a factor in securing Brady gigs at next monthas Netflix Is a Joke festival in Los Angeles, and this new special on the streamer too a whose title, Autistic Bikini Queen, invites fans of the memoir to come savour more of the same.
Is that what theyall get? Well, theyall certainly get a potent hit of the 37-year-oldas unsentimental personality, as Brady a filmed at a Bristol performance last year a launches into spiky riffs on marriage and relationships. Thereas not much, or at least not directly, on her experience of autism. The topic is efficiently dispatched in the opening five minutes with a droll gag about the idea that her neurodiversity is aa superpowera. Thereas also a joke about her undiagnosed condition revealing itself in Bradyas squeamishness about touching or hugging her mum, which sounded to this viewer less like a symptom of autism than of Scottishness.

A scheme to allow British under-30s to live and work in the EU has been flatly rejected. Why punish them for older votersa mistakes?
Only those born before 1998 could vote on Brexit, so there is no conceivable way of knowing which way todayas 18- to 30-year-olds would have felt about it. Oh, except there is: 70% of 18- to 24-year-olds think leaving the EU was a bad idea. Of the 25- to 49-year-olds, 66% also think we were wrong to leave. If you can bear to drag your mind back to the immediate aftermath of Brexit, youall recall that words like aoverwhelminga and avasta were completely debased by their use in conjunction with majorities that were actually wafer-thin. So letas just say most young people are remainers.
For a long time, politics has dealt with the young remainer as it does with the rest of us; ignore us for long enough, and weall go away. If the Brexit argument had had any foundation a if it had brought trading or other benefits, if it had caused only negligible difficulties and those of the teething variety a then that would probably have worked. Most referendum outcomes get more popular over time.

After last nightas Commons vote, they want a aproof of concepta journey to get the tawdry policy back on track. But itas too flawed for that
There will be a sigh of relief in No 10 with the passing of the Rwanda bill, as well as a degree of frustration. Having to steward another migration bill through parliament was not part of the governmentas plan.
With the Rwanda bill passing on to the statute book, overriding the supreme court judgment that Rwanda is not a safe country to which to send people seeking sanctuary, the government now hopes it can finally get on with locking up and then removing those seeking safety on our shores. The prime minister told a hastily arranged press conference on Monday morning that the first flight would not take off for a10 or 12 weeksa (having previously said it would be in spring). Officials are privately describing it as a aproof of concepta flight a this means focusing on having an initial flight to test how legally watertight the new laws are.

In the 14 months it has taken the UKas premier index to regain its old record level, the S&P 500 index in the US has marched upwards by 22% a and done so in a straight line, more or less, until a slip in the past fortnight.
Also note that the Footsieas latest push above 8,000 carries a heavy flavour of currency effects at work. The US dollar has been strengthening against most major currencies, including sterling, as markets look at the persistence of inflation in the US and judge that the Federal Reserve may not cut interest rates this year (and could even raise them).

From Kanye West to Chris Pratt, the celebrity approach to housing is more out of touch than ever
Looking for a bargain beach house? Then youare in luck. Kanye West has just lowered the price on his minimalist mansion in Malibu, California, to a mere $39m (APS31.5m) a a $14m discount on its original listing price. There is a catch though: the house has no windows, doors, electricity, plumbing or interior finishes. Itas completely uninhabitable, unless you happen to be a gull.
The sparseness isnat a deliberate design choice a though you could be forgiven for thinking otherwise. West, who also goes by the name Ye, is after all a man who opened up a lawsuit-magnet of a private school in Los Angeles called Donda Academy which, according to court filings, had empty windows because the musician adoesnat like glassa. Ye is, to put it in the politest terms possible, an individual with eccentric tastes.

With his claims of a asicknote culturea, the prime minister is scapegoating those worst affected by 14 years of Conservative rule
When a prime minister knows he is heading for electoral wipeout, he has one of two options. He can choose dignified statesmanship, using his remaining months in power to bring about as much unity and stability as possible. Or he can choose desperation, grasping for votes by scapegoating marginalised people, and leaving division and misery in his wake.
Rishi Sunak has gone for the second option. On Friday, he announced a new crackdown on disability benefits that has been described by charities as aa full-on assault on disabled peoplea. The country has a asicknote culturea that needs to be tackled, the prime minister said. Britain acanat afforda its record levels of welfare spending and itas anot faira on the taxpayer.

There is no evidence for the governmentas claim that deportations will astop the boatsa
The capitulation of the House of Lords over the governmentas Rwanda bill was predictable a even if some opponents had hoped against hope that peers might force a climbdown. As of now, UK law states that Rwanda is a asafe countrya, making it possible for ministers to send asylum seekers there. The shameful course of action embarked on late last year, after the supreme court ruled the deportation policy unlawful, has thus concluded. Two years after Boris Johnson first announced the plan, Rishi Sunak is set to try again.
From parliament the focus now swings back to the courts, where lawyers will try to have individuals removed from flight lists. The law allows for this if they face areal, imminent and foreseeable risk of serious irreversible harma from being sent to Rwanda a which some undoubtedly will. Mr Sunakas calculation is that the policy makes political sense despite this and the APS1.8m estimated initial cost per deportee. Its appeal is two-pronged, and combines the fuelling of xenophobic sentiment among voters a by ensuring that irregular migration stays in the news a with papering over cracks in the Tory party between hard-right populists and what remains of the liberal centre-right.

The region is turning towards Russia and other global players when it comes to security. Tackling the climate crisis would contribute to a solution
Two apparently separate developments in the Sahel are linked by more than geography. Last week, the US confirmed that it will withdraw more than 1,000 troops from Niger after the military junta revoked a security pact a just six years after a new $110m military base opened. Meanwhile, a record heatwave is the latest deadly extreme weather event.
The US had hoped to maintain the military agreement despite last summeras coup, part of a wave of military power grabs across the central Sahel and the wider region. French troops had already been expelled, with France earlier withdrawing from Mali and Burkina Faso. Malias regime also ordered an end to the UN stabilisation mission. Western departures come alongside the growing presence of Russian mercenaries, including the Wagner group.

Former UK diplomat Tim Cole calls for a radical reset of UK foreign policy based on honesty and respect
David Lammy says the UK needs a refreshed foreign policy based on aprogressive realisma (Labouras foreign policy will be realistic about us as a nation, not nostalgic about what we used to be, 17 April). This is nowhere more true than in Africa where, in many countries, the UK is seen as untrustworthy and shortsighted, short of ideas and cash, petty and not strategic. Spending the aid budget on refugees at home, hoarding vaccines during the pandemic, not living up to commitments on climate finance, ignoring wars in Africa because others are amore importanta a all these policies and many more have influenced how we are seen.
A refreshed approach needs to provide a clean break with the past. It canat claim to be different but follow the same set of rules. It needs to be radical, bold, honest, holistic and cross-government. To break with our past, we need to take full responsibility for it. That means having an honest discussion about colonialism and reparations. It means ensuring all items in UK museums and other public institutions stolen during the colonial period are returned. It also means we meet all our commitments on climate adaptation finance and provide significant support for loss and damage. And we should, finally, give the Chagos Islands, the last British colony in Africa, back to Mauritius, thus allowing Chagossians to return to their homes.

Richard Gaddas adaptation of his 2019 Edinburgh festival one-man show, which in turn was a dramatisation of the ordeals he had been through at the hands of a stalker and a powerful abuser respectively, has not only been the most watched Netflix show in the UK, but made the top 10 in 12 other countries.
And quite right too, since itas as gripping and queasy and uncomfortable a show as youare ever likely to see. But unintended consequences can come with success. The narrative surrounding Baby Reindeer has moved away from the show this week and into the real world. Besides its lead, the show is essentially about two people: a middle-aged woman who spent years inundating Gadd with thousands of unwanted messages to the detriment of his wellbeing, and a successful older writer who subjected Gadd to a prolonged period of sexual abuse. And while Baby Reindeer attempted to gloss over the true identity of these figures, the internet has, unfortunately, been busy.

Chelseaas mega-splurge bought a lot of deeply room-temperature footballers a against Arsenal they were dismal
Wait. Is this a twist? Is this a sting, a surge, a volte-face? Or is it just how it feels to play Chelsea, opponents so poor they seemed at times to be indulging in a kind of protest activity, non-sport, football as an act of extended standing around waiting for it to be over.
It is a measure of Manchester Cityas dominance that the last week has brought a peculiar feeling that Arsenalas season is already over, despite still being top of the table. Here Arsenal went three points clear of Liverpool and four clear of City (who have two games in hand) with a performance that felt, if nothing else, like a kind of liberation.

aBlanda or aabsolutely breathtakinga? Our readers are divided over Swiftas epically long, richly detailed new album
As someone who has been a Swiftie for over a decade, my initial impression is that this album is one of her best lyrically, but production-wise it can get a bit repetitive by the end. While Folklore, Evermore and Midnights were full of either fictional tales or vague reminiscences, The Tortured Poets Department is a clear return to her old style of extremely personal, confessional songwriting, but still retaining the poetic lyricism sheas acquired in recent years. Some critics might find the album boring or confusing, but I think the fans familiar with her past work will have an easier time understanding the little details and references, and will have a great time analysing them.

New documentary Hip-Hop and the White House looks back at how presidents have rejected or embraced those within the genre, from Reagan to Trump
At the 1985 presidential inauguration ball, a made-for-TV black-tie affair that was something in between a concert and a roast, an expectant Ronald Reagan looked on from the dais for Jimmy Stewart to bring up the next act. aAnd now,a a grizzled George Bailey intoned, ato present the excitement of youth, the sights and the sounds of a big city, here are [the] New York City Breakers.a
More than validation for an emerging medium, it was the moment Reagan assumed his final form as Americaas god emcee, the cult figure who not only inspired a political movement but also its muscular, musical adversary. aThatas really where it all began,a says Jesse Washington, the writer-director behind the documentary Hip-Hop and the White House. aDaddy-O said it very plainly: aReagan gave us something to rap about.aa

Donald Trump is already in jail. He is pressed into confinement every weekday, except Wednesdays, beginning bright and early, no excuses, at 9.30 in the morning, in the dreary courtroom in Manhattan, where his impulse to mouth off wearies and worries his lawyers, and he must listen, for the first time since his father slapped him down, to an authority telling him to gag himself. He had more leeway when Fred Trump shipped the problem child to the New York military academy where Donald bullied his classmates.
Trumpas required attendance in the courtroom as a criminal defendant is his first loss of liberty.

From Kanye West to Chris Pratt, the celebrity approach to housing is more out of touch than ever

There is a catch though: the house has no windows, doors, electricity, plumbing or interior finishes. Itas completely uninhabitable, unless you happen to be a gull.
The sparseness isnat a deliberate design choice a though you could be forgiven for thinking otherwise. West, who also goes by the name Ye, is after all a man who opened up a lawsuit-magnet of a private school in Los Angeles called Donda Academy which, according to court filings, had empty windows because the musician adoesnat like glassa.

Donald Trump dodged financial calamity on Monday. The office of Letitia James, the New York attorney general, and lawyers for Trump reached agreement in open court on the terms governing the appellate bond posted by the former president. After nearly an hour of argument and an extended recess, the parties achieved a workable solution. It is a ray of sunshine in Trumpas otherwise bleak legal landscape.
Trump would be required to leave $175m in cash only as collateral for the bond. Mutual funds or other securities will not suffice. In addition, the brokerage account holding the funds would fall under the exclusive control of the bonding company.

A scheme to allow British under-30s to live and work in the EU has been flatly rejected. Why punish them for older votersa mistakes?
Only those born before 1998 could vote on Brexit, so there is no conceivable way of knowing which way todayas 18- to 30-year-olds would have felt about it. Oh, except there is: 70% of 18- to 24-year-olds think leaving the EU was a bad idea. Of the 25- to 49-year-olds, 66% also think we were wrong to leave. If you can bear to drag your mind back to the immediate aftermath of Brexit, youall recall that words like aoverwhelminga and avasta were completely debased by their use in conjunction with majorities that were actually wafer-thin. So letas just say most young people are remainers.
For a long time, politics has dealt with the young remainer as it does with the rest of us; ignore us for long enough, and weall go away. If the Brexit argument had had any foundation a if it had brought trading or other benefits, if it had caused only negligible difficulties and those of the teething variety a then that would probably have worked. Most referendum outcomes get more popular over time.

The region is turning towards Russia and other global players when it comes to security. Tackling the climate crisis would contribute to a solution
Two apparently separate developments in the Sahel are linked by more than geography. Last week, the US confirmed that it will withdraw more than 1,000 troops from Niger after the military junta revoked a security pact a just six years after a new $110m military base opened. Meanwhile, a record heatwave is the latest deadly extreme weather event.
The US had hoped to maintain the military agreement despite last summeras coup, part of a wave of military power grabs across the central Sahel and the wider region. French troops had already been expelled, with France earlier withdrawing from Mali and Burkina Faso. Malias regime also ordered an end to the UN stabilisation mission. Western departures come alongside the growing presence of Russian mercenaries, including the Wagner group.
