It also describes prosecution and punishment for human rights abuses as “inconsistent”.</p><p>Brazil, which the <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cj0mg2j7z04o" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Trump administration has frequently criticised</a>, was singled out in the state department report for “disproportionate action to undermine freedom of speech”.</p><p>Both the UK and Brazil have previously rejected similar criticism from the US.</p><p>Continue/Read Original Article Here: <em><a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cwy0lejvw25o" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Trump administration rewrites and scales back annual human rights report</a></em></p> <p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/2025/" target="_blank">#2025</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/america/" target="_blank">#America</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/bbc/" target="_blank">#BBC</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/bbc-news/" target="_blank">#BBCNews</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/donald-trump/" target="_blank">#DonaldTrump</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/health/" target="_blank">#Health</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/history/" target="_blank">#History</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/human-rights/" target="_blank">#HumanRights</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/human-rights-report/" target="_blank">#HumanRightsReport</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/libraries/" target="_blank">#Libraries</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/library-of-congress/" target="_blank">#LibraryOfCongress</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/politics/" target="_blank">#Politics</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/resistance/" target="_blank">#Resistance</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/science/" target="_blank">#Science</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/trump/" target="_blank">#Trump</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/trump-administration/" target="_blank">#TrumpAdministration</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/united-states/" target="_blank">#UnitedStates</a></p>

And the letter was replete with Trumpian self-praise and propaganda:</p><blockquote><blockquote><p class=""><em>There is no substitute for the tariffs and deals that President Trump has made. One year ago, the United States was a dead country, and now, because of the trillions of dollars being paid by countries that have so badly abused us, America is a strong, financially viable, and respected country again. If the United States were forced to pay back the trillions of dollars committed to us, America could go from strength to failure the moment such an incorrect decision took effect.</em></p></blockquote></blockquote><blockquote><p class=""><em>These deals for trillions of dollars have been reached, and other countries have committed to pay massive sums of money. If the United States were forced to unwind these historic agreements, the President believes that a forced dissolution of the agreements could lead to a 1929-style result.

To some, it echoes uncomfortable historical chapters when politicians used language to paint historically or predominantly Black cities and neighborhoods with racist narratives to shape public opinion and justify aggressive police action.</p><p>April Goggans, a longtime D.C. resident and grassroots organizer, said she was not surprised by Trump’s actions. Communities had been preparing for a potential federal crackdown in D.C. since the summer of 2020, when Trump deployed troops during racial justice protests after the <a href="https://apnews.com/hub/george-floyd" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">murder of George Floyd</a>.</p><p><a href="https://apnews.com/article/confederate-statue-removal-replacement-trump-culture-13ae94da5a9d652ba8a678d24bc9e7e8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a>“We have to be vigilant,” said Goggans, who has coordinated local protests for nearly a decade. She worries about what a surge in law enforcement could mean for residents’ freedoms.</p><p>“Regardless of where you fall on the political scale, understand that this could be you, your children, your grandmother, your co-worker who are brutalized or have certain rights violated,” she said.</p><p>Other residents reacted with mixed feelings to Trump’s executive order. Crime and homelessness has been a top concern for residents in recent years, but opinions on how to solve the issue vary. And very few residents take Trump’s catastrophic view of life in D.C.</p><p>“I think Trump’s trying to help people, some people,” said Melvin Brown, a D.C. resident. “But as far as (him) trying to get (the) homeless out of this city, that ain’t going to work.”</p><p>“It’s like a band-aid to a gunshot wound,” said Melissa Velasquez, a commuter into D.C. “I feel like there’s been an increase of racial profiling and stuff, and so it’s concerning for individuals who are worried about how they might be perceived as they go about their day-to-day lives.”</p><p><strong>Uncertainty raises alarms</strong></p><p>According to White House officials, troops will be deployed to protect federal assets and facilitate a safe environment for law enforcement to make arrests. The Trump administration believes the highly visible presence of law enforcement will deter violent crime. It is unclear how the administration defines providing a safe environment for law enforcement to conduct arrests, raising alarm bells for some advocates.</p><p>“The president foreshadowed that if these heavy-handed tactics take root here, they will be rolled out to other majority-Black and Brown cities, like Chicago, Oakland and Baltimore, across the country,” said Monica Hopkins, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union’s D.C. chapter.</p><p>“We’ve seen before how federal control of the D.C. National Guard and police can lead to abuse, intimidation and civil rights violations — from military helicopters swooping over peaceful racial justice protesters in 2020 to the unchecked conduct of federal officers who remain shielded from full accountability,” Hopkins said.</p><p><a class="" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/2025/08/12/trumps-dc-police-takeover-echoes-history-of-racist-narratives-about-crime-ap-news/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Read more<span class="">: Trump’s DC police takeover echoes history of racist narratives about crime | AP News</span></a></p><p>Continue/Read Original Article Here: <em><a href="https://apnews.com/article/trump-washington-dc-takeover-race-39388597bad7e70085079888fe7fb57b" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Trump’s DC police takeover echoes history of racist narratives about crime | AP News</a></em></p> <p>Original article: <a href="https://apnews.com/article/trump-washington-dc-takeover-race-39388597bad7e70085079888fe7fb57b" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View source</a></p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/2025/" target="_blank">#2025</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/america/" target="_blank">#America</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/ap/" target="_blank">#AP</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/associated-press/" target="_blank">#AssociatedPress</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/dc-police/" target="_blank">#DCPolice</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/dc-police-takeover/" target="_blank">#DCPoliceTakeover</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/donald-trump/" target="_blank">#DonaldTrump</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/health/" target="_blank">#Health</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/history/" target="_blank">#History</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/libraries/" target="_blank">#Libraries</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/library-of-congress/" target="_blank">#LibraryOfCongress</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/never-trump/" target="_blank">#NeverTrump</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/politics/" target="_blank">#Politics</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/resistance/" target="_blank">#Resistance</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/science/" target="_blank">#Science</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/trump/" target="_blank">#Trump</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/trump-administration/" target="_blank">#TrumpAdministration</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/united-states/" target="_blank">#UnitedStates</a></p>

That’s here in Washington, D.C., where I have lived since I moved to work on government accountability 15 years ago.</p><p>For perhaps the next 30 days, or longer, District of Columbia residents will be policed by federalized civilian and military officers, per an <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/08/declaring-a-crime-emergency-in-the-district-of-columbia/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">executive order</a> and <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/08/restoring-law-and-order-in-the-district-of-columbia/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">presidential memorandum</a> this morning. The executive order directs the police to be federalized to protect “national monuments” (which are in the safest parts of D.C. thanks to the existing park police) and other federal properties, but the memorandum directs the DC National Guard to address crime throughout the capital.</p><p><strong>There is no crime emergency here.</strong> I live here. I have seen things get better, not worse, with my own eyes. Violent crime is the <a href="https://www.justice.gov/usao-dc/pr/violent-crime-dc-hits-30-year-low" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">lowest it has been in 30 years</a>. Overall crime is <a href="https://www.mwcog.org/newsroom/2025/06/11/new-regional-dashboard-shows-crime-down-13-percent-in-dmv-/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">down</a> this year already. According to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_States_cities_by_crime_rate" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">2019 data</a>, crime is worse in Houston and Indianapolis than here in D.C. Like all places, we have crime. I have seen that too. But not more than most.</p><p>D.C. is not just the capital district. It is one of the largest cities in the country. It’s a <em>great</em> city. I love living here. 700,000 people live in D.C. — that’s more than two whole states, Vermont and Wyoming. District residents paid $45 billion in federal taxes in 2024 — that’s <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_tax_revenue_by_state" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">more than</a> North Dakota, West Virginia, Wyoming, Alaska, and Vermont <em>combined</em> (and more than 21 other states individually).</p><p>How many votes do we have in Congress? None. We don’t have any say in the federal laws that bind us. But that’s not all. Arrests are already prosecuted by federal lawyers, not lawyers that work for the elected DC Attorney General. They enforce local laws that the District’s Council <a href="https://www.npr.org/2023/03/08/1161902691/d-c-crime-bill-biden-overturn" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">has been blocked</a> by Congress from updating.</p><p>There is a lot of taxation here and not a lot of representation.</p><p>Instead, politicians from far away cities with crime worse than ours use us for their own gain.</p><p>It’s not enough that federal police officers already police many of the parks here (many of which are national parks), the area around the Capitol (which has its own federal police force), and White House grounds (which has the Secret Service). Now it might be our neighborhoods too. It will not make our communities safer, and it defies the American spirit of a government accountable to its people.</p> </blockquote><p>Continue/Read Original Article Here: <em><a href="https://www.govtrack.us/posts/529/2025-08-11_dont-federalize-and-militarize-dcs-local-police" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Don’t federalize and militarize DC’s local police – GovTrack.us</a></em></p> <p>Original article: <a href="https://www.govtrack.us/posts/529/2025-08-11_dont-federalize-and-militarize-dcs-local-police" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View source</a></p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/2025/" target="_blank">#2025</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/america/" target="_blank">#America</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/donald-trump/" target="_blank">#DonaldTrump</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/federalize-police/" target="_blank">#FederalizePolice</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/govtrack/" target="_blank">#GovTrack</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/govtrack-us/" target="_blank">#GovTrackUs</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/health/" target="_blank">#Health</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/history/" target="_blank">#History</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/libraries/" target="_blank">#Libraries</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/library/" target="_blank">#Library</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/library-of-congress/" target="_blank">#LibraryOfCongress</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/militarize-dc-police/" target="_blank">#MilitarizeDCPolice</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/politics/" target="_blank">#Politics</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/resistance/" target="_blank">#Resistance</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/science/" target="_blank">#Science</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/trump/" target="_blank">#Trump</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/trump-administration/" target="_blank">#TrumpAdministration</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/united-states/" target="_blank">#UnitedStates</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/washington-dc/" target="_blank">#WashingtonDC</a></p>
DrWeb<p><strong>Civil Discourse – When The President Becomes The Police – Joyce Vance</strong></p><p>By <a href="https://substack.com/@joycevance" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Joyce Vance</a>, Aug 11, 2025</p><p>The <a href="https://joycevance.substack.com/p/posse-comitatus-the-power-of-the" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Posse Comitatus Act</a> reserves the police power to the states, prohibiting the federal government from using the military for domestic law enforcement absent truly compelling circumstances. This principle can be extended to the National Guard when a president federalizes a state’s troops. That’s the very issue that Judge Charles Breyer is considering in <em>Newsom v. Trump</em> this week: whether Trump’s deployment of the National Guard in Los Angeles crossed the line into domestic law enforcement.</p><p>But when Donald Trump declared a public safety emergency in Washington, D.C. this morning, taking control of the Metropolitan Police and announcing his intent to bring the National Guard in to help, the rules that apply everywhere else were not in play. The situation in Washington is unique, and it’s important for us to understand what it is and what it isn’t.</p><p>It’s deeply concerning that Trump’s predication for seizing control in the District—allegedly out of control crime—are a lie. I shared the statistics with you <a href="https://joycevance.substack.com/p/the-week-ahead-5b9" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">last night</a>, which show that <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2025/08/10/trump-crime-data-federal-takeover/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">crime is actually decreasing</a> in the District of Columbia. But because the D.C. Home Rule Act allows the president to take control of the Metropolitan Police Department for 30 days in an emergency, and because the law doesn’t carefully define what qualifies as an emergency, Trump will likely get his 30 days. That conclusion was reinforced during D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser’s press conference, where she called Trump’s federal takeover of the D.C. police department “unsettling and unprecedented,” but did not threaten to sue. City officials have likely looked at the law and concluded Trump has enough room under the vague rule to get away with using false pretenses to take over the police.</p><a class="" href="https://i0.wp.com/substackcdn.com/image/fetch/%24s_%21aw7y%21%2Cf_auto%2Cq_auto%3Agood%2Cfl_progressive%3Asteep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0c38e47a-bd8f-4322-9236-da9592cde97b_1916x1078.png?ssl=1" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a>From article…<p>Time and again, Trump shows his willingness to grab and abuse power, and each instance makes the next more likely. But if he wants to seize control of law enforcement in other cities, he will have to use different legal authorities, such as the Insurrection Act, which, so far, has apparently been too politically fraught. Existing rules made it easier for Trump to act in Washington than in other cities, and this playbook cannot be readily duplicated elsewhere. In other words, as bad as this is, there’s a silver lining.</p><p>Here’s the legal landscape that permits Trump to control the police and the Guard:</p><p><strong>Police: </strong>§ 1-207.40 of the Code of the District of Columbia allows a president to take control of the Metropolitan Police Force for federal purposes in an emergency. To keep control for more than 48 hours, he must notify the chair and the ranking member of the Committees on the District of Columbia in Congress. Trump has already done this. That means he can hold onto control for 30 days, but no longer, unless Congress authorizes it. If you tuned into</p><p><a href="https://open.substack.com/users/111977594-steve-vladeck?utm_source=mentions" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Steve Vladeck</a>’s and my Substack Live conversation tonight, you know that we both believe congressional Democrats could filibuster to prevent that from happening.</p><a class="" href="https://i0.wp.com/substackcdn.com/image/fetch/%24s_%21J_H6%21%2Cf_auto%2Cq_auto%3Agood%2Cfl_progressive%3Asteep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd728bd6b-eacd-48c4-b7d9-a3b36a9b3515_660x142.png?ssl=1" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><p>So why do it if it’s only for 30 days? Perhaps Trump is indeed looking to push the boundaries of presidential power even further than he has before. Or perhaps he’s hoping 30 days will be enough to distract the public from his Jeffrey Epstein problem. Either way, Attorney General Pam Bondi is running the police for 30 days, and we’ll be watching.</p><p><strong>D.C. National Guard: </strong>Unlike state national guards, the D.C. Guard falls under the president’s purview, so he has no need to federalize it like he did in California to deploy troops for federal purposes. DOJ <a href="https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/research-reports/posse-comitatus-act-explained" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">has historically taken the position</a> that the D.C. National Guard’s unique status means it is “non-federal,” and is not subject to the Posse Comitatus Act, which leaves Trump free to use it for direct law enforcement purposes inside of the city.

If he notifies certain members of Congress, Trump can federalize the police for up to 30 days.</p><ul><li><strong>Key context:</strong> Trump cited rising crime as the emergency that justified his police takeover and National Guard deployment — but <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2025/08/10/trump-crime-data-federal-takeover/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">violent crime in D.C. has been in decline</a>.</li></ul><p><strong>2</strong></p><p><strong>D.C.’s mayor called Trump’s police takeover “unsettling and unprecedented”</strong></p><p><strong>What she said:</strong> “I can’t say that given some of the rhetoric of the past, that we’re totally surprised,”<a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/08/11/trump-presidency-news/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"> said Mayor Muriel E. Bowser</a>, who was sharply critical of the takeover.</p><ul><li><strong>More:</strong> Bowser affirmed the authority of D.C. Police Chief Pamela A. Smith, saying “its 3,100 members work under her direction.”</li></ul><p><strong>3</strong></p><p><strong>A federal judge blocked the release of Epstein case testimony.</strong></p><p><strong>The latest: </strong>A federal judge in New York became the second judge to<a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2025/08/11/new-york-judge-denies-release-epstein-related-grand-jury-transcript/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"> reject the Justice Department’s request</a> to release grand jury testimony from Jeffrey Epstein’s case.</p><ul><li><strong>Why:</strong> District Judge Paul A. Engelmayer said today that the request did not rise to the level of a “special circumstance” that would justify the release of secret testimony.</li></ul><p><strong>4</strong></p><p><strong>The U.S. attorney for D.C. vowed to “change the law” to arrest more people.</strong></p>Pirro is just one of many Fox News hosts or frequent guests who have been appointed to the Trump administration. (Eric Lee / For The Washington Post)<p><strong>The details:</strong> U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/08/11/trump-presidency-news/#link-XVSNWITF6NCKRJOK7CWTC4AJAY" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">called D.C. laws “weak”</a> and warned would-be troublemakers: “We see you, we’re watching you, and we’re going to change the law to catch you.”</p><ul><li><strong>Background:</strong> The former Fox News host was <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/08/02/jeanine-pirro-dc-attorney-senate-vote-trump/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">confirmed by the Senate</a> this month, and served in the role on an interim basis starting in May.</li></ul><p><strong>5</strong></p><p><strong>Chipmakers agreed to pay the U.S. 15 percent of Chinese AI sales revenue.</strong></p><p><strong>What to know: </strong>Nvidia and AMD <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2025/08/10/nvidia-amd-china-chips-deal-trump/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">have agreed to pay</a> the U.S. a share of all sales of artificial intelligence chips in China in exchange for an export license for China.</p><ul><li><strong>Controversy:</strong> Some experts warn the agreement might be unconstitutional, as the fee could be seen as an export tax, which would violate the Export Clause.</li></ul><p><strong>6</strong></p><p><strong>The White House said it’s open to peace talks with Ukraine and Russia.</strong></p><p><strong>Yesterday:</strong> Vice President JD Vance <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/08/10/trump-putin-zelensky-ukraine-peace-talks/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">told Fox News</a> that the White House is “trying to figure out, frankly, scheduling” for a meeting with Ukrainian and Russian leaders.</p><ul><li><strong>Related:</strong> Trump will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin Friday, and Trump has talked with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky several times in recent months.</li></ul><p><strong>7</strong></p><p><strong>Trump’s social media AI bot keeps contradicting him.</strong></p><p><strong>“I’m sorry, Donald. I’m afraid I can’t do that”: </strong>Trump’s Truth Social introduced <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2025/08/10/truth-social-trump-ai-chatbot-perplexity/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">an AI bot</a> that insists, among other things, the 2020 election was legitimate and tariffs are taxes.</p><ul><li><strong>Ironic: </strong>Trump <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2025/07/24/trump-ai-woke-executive-order/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">signed an executive order</a> last month attacking “woke AI,” and ordering federal contracts go to companies whose AI bots were found to be bias free.</li></ul><p><strong>Before you go …</strong> Research laboratories have been hit hard by the Trump administration’s cuts to grants and education funding. Carolyn Y. Johnson went to <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2025/08/11/trump-science-nobel-innovation-cuts/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">one such laboratory</a> to see how its staff is handling the cuts.</p><p><em>Want to stay on top of President Trump’s second term? </em><a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/newsletters/the7-tracking-trump/?method=SURL&location=ART&initiative=THE7FOOTER" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><em>Sign up for the newsletter</em></a><em> to get the top stories every weeknight.</em></p></blockquote><p>Continue/Read Original Article Here: <em><a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/the-seven-trump/2025/08/11/what-to-know-about-donald-trump-/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">The 7 things to know about President Donald Trump for [day, date] – The Washington Post</a></em></p> <p>Original article: <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/the-seven-trump/2025/08/11/what-to-know-about-donald-trump-/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View source</a></p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/2025/" target="_blank">#2025</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/7-things/" target="_blank">#7Things</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/america/" target="_blank">#America</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/donald-trump/" target="_blank">#DonaldTrump</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/health/" target="_blank">#Health</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/history/" target="_blank">#History</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/libraries/" target="_blank">#Libraries</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/library/" target="_blank">#Library</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/library-of-congress/" target="_blank">#LibraryOfCongress</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/politics/" target="_blank">#Politics</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/resistance/" target="_blank">#Resistance</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/science/" target="_blank">#Science</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/the-washington-post/" target="_blank">#TheWashingtonPost</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/trump/" target="_blank">#Trump</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/trump-administration/" target="_blank">#TrumpAdministration</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://drwebdomain.blog/tag/united-states/" target="_blank">#UnitedStates</a></p>
