Trump’s pardon of an ex-Honduran president is shocking. So is the history of US support for him | Dana Frank
Obama, Trump, and Biden stood by their man in Tegucigalpa for the eight vicious, destructive years he was in powerSince President Trump first announced the pardon of former Honduran president Juan Orlando Hernandez last Friday, the media has been wading through the long list of criminal acts that led to Hernandez's 2024 conviction for drug trafficking, money laundering and arms dealing. Trump's outrageous pardon is being contrasted with his unlawful, aggressive attacks on boats allegedly trafficking drugs for the government of Venezuela. Missing from the narrative, though, are the other illegal acts committed by Hernandez that weren't about drug trafficking, and thus didn't fall under the justice department's anti-drug mandate when it charged and convicted him in the southern district of New York. Many are the crimes of Juan Orlando Hernandez, and ruinous.And long is the history of US support for him in full knowledge of those crimes. Presidents Obama, Trump and Biden all stood by their man in Honduras for the eight vicious, destructive years he was in power. They ignored his drug connections, supported the military and police that kept him in power through state terror, and countenanced his illegal re-elections. Hernandez was only able to rise to power, and stay there, because of the United States government.Dana Frank is research professor and professor emerita of history at the University of California, Santa Cruz and author of The Long Honduran Night: Resistance, Terror, and the United States in the Aftermath of the Coup Continue reading...

‘Mouthpieces for Trump’: inside the rightwing takeover of the Pentagon press corps
Pentagon press passes once held by credentialed journalists are now in the hands of rightwing pundits and Trump alliesBeing a member of the Pentagon press corps was once one of the more prestigious assignments in US journalism, a position reserved for heavy hitters from venerable newspapers and news channels, reporters at the peak of their powers.Not any more. A press conference last week - held at a crucial time for a Pentagon embroiled in scandal - was instead attended by more than a dozen rightwing activists, with the government being held to account by a close ally of Donald Trump, an employee at Turning Point USA and someone from a pillow salesman's nascent media company.

‘My legacy is not Charlie Kirk’: the university president building a culture of peace after violence
Astrid Tuminez, Utah Valley University's first female leader, had to pivot from personal tragedy to address a wounding that happened to all of us'Astrid Tuminez was on her way to Rome, the trip a kind of pilgrimage after months of grief. Her husband, Jeffrey Tolk, had died suddenly earlier in the year, and the loss had left her carrying a weight she couldn't set down. I felt darkness and a rage I'd never known before. It was like a tectonic shift in my reality," she said.Tuminez imagined quiet days walking through old churches, sitting in dim chapels in Rome. As part of her spiritual healing, she hoped her schedule held a meeting with Pope Leo. But as her flight landed in Atlanta for a short connection, her phone lit up. One sentence, again and again: Charlie has been shot." Continue reading...
Pressure grows on ‘reckless’ Hegseth as twin scandals engulf Pentagon chief
Defense secretary defiant but allegations of war crimes and blistering watchdog report increase calls for him to goPete Hegseth is facing the most serious crisis of his tenure as defense secretary, engulfed by allegations of war crimes in the Caribbean and a blistering inspector general report accusing him of mishandling classified military intelligence. Yet despite the long list of trouble and as lawmakers from both parties call for his resignation, Hegseth shows no signs of stepping down and still holds Donald Trump's support.The twin crises have engulfed the former Fox News personality in separate but overlapping allegations that lawmakers, policy experts and former officials say reveal a pattern of dangerous recklessness at the helm of the Pentagon. Democratic legislators have reignited calls for his ouster after revelations that survivors clinging to wreckage from a September boat strike were deliberately killed in a double-tap" attack, while a defense department investigation released on Thursday concluded he violated Pentagon policies by sharing sensitive details via the Signal messaging app hours before airstrikes in Yemen.

The United States must create big moments at World Cup 2026. Anything less is not enough | Leander Schaerlaeckens
Each nation's World Cup is defined, for good or bad, by huge, indelible moments. With a favorable draw, the onus is now on the US to create themChristian Pulisic vividly remembers watching it with his family. So does Tyler Adams, who saw it with his friends from soccer camp. Memories of Tim Howard catching an Algerian header in Pretoria, and hurling it upfield to ignite the counterattack that would lead to Landon Donovan's instantly iconic goal. The goal that spared the United States men's national team's blushes at the 2010 World Cup, sneaking them out of the group stage at Algeria's expense. One of the most iconic moments in US socer history.Pulisic was a few months from turning 12. Adams had just turned 10. Matt Turner would be 16 the next day, and Howard's heroics made him wonder if he ought to devote himself fully to becoming a goalkeeper. Continue reading...
Trump wants to recreate a white America that never existed | Rebecca Solnit
The persecution of brown people and mass deportations will not create the white country of far-right fantasyAs Donald Trump deteriorates and his grasp on power fades, he has been lashing out furiously at female journalists and ethnic groups, most recently Somali Americans. His insults land because of their animosity and his power, not their accuracy. Likewise, his administration's attacks on immigrants are sloppy and driven by lies. It's strikingly clear that the target is not individuals with criminal records. It's anyone and everyone guilty of being brown. Native Americans with tribal identification cards, US citizens, people doing crucial work from construction to nursing, military veterans, college students, people sleeping in their own beds, small children: all kinds of residents of this country are under attack.ICE raids are cruel, inhumane, and do nothing to serve public safety," declares Zohran Mamdani, the New York City mayor-elect. Masked thugs smashing car windows and dragging parents away from their babies, terrorizing whole swathes of the population, and interfering with the ability of schools and businesses to function does the opposite. The rounds of targeted hatred by Trump and his minions - for people from Haiti during the 2024 campaign, for people from Venezuela this spring and summer, and most recently for people from Somalia - rely on defamatory lies and insults, because the facts about these groups don't support the hate.Rebecca Solnit is a Guardian US columnist.

Only Europe can save Ukraine from Putin and Trump – but will it? | Timothy Garton Ash

How much more clarity do you need?Now it's up to us Europeans to enable Ukraine to survive armed assault from Moscow and diplomatic betrayal from Washington. In doing so, we also defend ourselves. For a year now, people have been telling me that Trump will eventually get tough on Russia. It's been the geopolitical version of Waiting for Godot. Then his personal real-estate emissaries come up with a 28-point peace plan" that is a Russian-American imperial and commercial deal at the expense of both Ukraine and Europe. Continue reading...

The Trump administration sinks to a new low – opening fire on drowning men | Jonathan Freedland
These deadly US boat strikes are the latest example of a president corrupting both the law and moralityThe Trump administration looks ever more like a criminal enterprise - and now it seems to have added war crimes to its repertoire. Though even that may be too generous a description.On Thursday, word came that the US military had launched yet another deadly strike on a small boat moving through international waters. This time the attack killed four people, bringing to at least 87 the number of people the US has killed in a series of 22 such strikes on what it says are drug boats - vessels carrying illicit narcotics in the Caribbean or eastern Pacific.Jonathan Freedland is a Guardian columnistGuardian newsroom: Year One of Trumpism: Is Britain Emulating the US?
How Farage’s response to racism claims is straight out of Trump’s populist playbook
Reform UK leader's legal threats, denials and attacks on the media are tactics often deployed by US presidentWhen Nigel Farage angrily denounced the BBC and insulted one of its presenters for raising questions about his alleged schoolboy racism, those who have been studying the tactics of the right noted that his behaviour felt familiar.Is it out of the Trump playbook? I think that's exactly what's going on," said Steven Barnett, a professor of communications at the University of Westminster. This is becoming his new modus operandi, turning defence into attack. It's exactly the tactics White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, uses. There are a lot of journalists in this country who just aren't used to it." Continue reading...

Rosa Parks’ vacant former home is an emblem of racist housing policies | Bernadette Atuahene
Seventy years after the Montgomery bus boycott, policies hiding in plain sight continue to ravage the Black communityFriday is the 70th anniversary of the Montgomery bus boycott, which began because Rosa Parks refused to relinquish her seat to a white person, as required by law. While her brave act brought national attention to the civil rights movement and triggered student sit-ins to end segregation across the south, it also subjected her and her husband, Raymond, to constant death threats. Consequently, like many other Black families fleeing Jim Crow south's racial violence, in August 1957, Rosa and Raymond moved up north to Detroit.When the Parks arrived in Detroit, they and other Black people did not have to sit at the back of the bus. Nonetheless, the city was permeated by a quieter but no less pernicious type of racism: racist policies, which are any written or unwritten laws and processes that produce or sustain racial inequity. In my book Plundered: How Racist Policies Undermine Black Homeownership in America, I demonstrate how racial covenants, redlining, urban renewal, blockbusting, predatory mortgage lending and racialized property tax administration have stymied the Black community.Bernadette Atuahene is the Duggan Professor at the University of Southern California Gould School of Law, the Executive Director of the Institute for Law and Organizing, and the author of Plundered: How Racist Policies Undermine Black Homeownership in America Continue reading...

Inter Miami’s journey to MLS Cup has been methodical, and Messi-centered
Ever since the club's very beginning, David Beckham and Jorge Mas have had moments like this Saturday in mindBack on 27 February 2020, days before Inter Miami's first-ever fixture in MLS, I stood next to the club's managing owner, Jorge Mas, and co-owner David Beckham as part of an MLS press junket in New York City. I was there for Sports Illustrated and my show Planet Futbol TV, which I co-hosted with my friend, the late, great Grant Wahl. We were adamant that the Inter Miami story was riveting, not just because of Beckham's influence in MLS, but also because his new club was about to introduce the unique culture of Miami and south Florida - the Latin American capital of the world - to the league.The conversation in 2020 was my second meeting with Mas and my first with Beckham. I remember the sense of excitement from both men, knowing that this Inter Miami project - seven years in the making before their debut in the league - was about to come to fruition after a long, arduous journey. From legal battles with Internazionale over the trademark of the word Inter" to political and structural problems as they tried to make a stadium, Miami Freedom Park, a reality. Now, the club was finally starting life in MLS. Continue reading...
