India, US should find common ground to resolve tariff issue: Netanyahu

The foundation of India-US relationship is "very solid' and both sides should find common ground to resolve the tariff issue, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Thursday. The prime minister also said that the military equipment supplied to India by Israel performed well during Operation Sindoor and that the defence cooperation between the two countries are on an upswing. In an interaction with a group of visiting Indian journalists, Netanyahu said he would like to visit India "soon". As India-US ties are reeling under some strain after US President Donald Trump imposed 50 per cent tariff on Indian goods, the Israeli prime minister said both sides should amicably resolve the issue. To a question on whether he would give any advice to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on dealing with Trump, the Israeli leader half-jockingly said he would do so privately. "Modi and Trump are terrific friends of mine. Yes I would give Modi some advice (on dealing with Trump), but ...

Cut ties with Epstein for 'stealing people who worked for me', says Trump

President Donald Trump said Monday that he ended his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein and threw the now-disgraced financier out of his private club in Florida after Epstein betrayed him more than once by hiring people who had worked for him. Trump did not say what the people's jobs were or where they worked, and the White House had no immediate comment. But with the fresh comments, Trump shed a little light on the reason why he has said he had ended the relationship with Epstein, though Steven Cheung, the White House communications director, recently said on X that, "The fact is that the President kicked him out of his club for being a creep. Epstein killed himself, authorities say, in a New York jail cell in 2019 as he awaited trial on sex trafficking charges. Trump and his top allies stoked conspiracy theories about Epstein's death before Trump returned to power and are now struggling to manage the fallout after the Justice Department said Epstein did in fact die by suicide and that

Pardon applications being carefully crafted with one man in mind: Trump

Pounding away on a prison typewriter, Chad Scott seemed worlds apart from President Donald Trump. But when the disgraced narcotics agent wrote the White House seeking clemency for his corruption conviction, Scott sought to draw Trump's attention to what they have in common. Both men had survived a bullet wound to the ear, Scott wrote, and had been convicted of falsifying records. They were also each a victim of political persecution, the type of catchphrase the former agent hoped would resonate with a man who has long complained of witch hunts. By helping him, Scott argued, Trump would be showing he had the back of law enforcement. Chad Scott is a hero in this country's war on drugs, his attorney wrote in a clemency petition reviewed by The Associated Press, adding it would be a gross waste of taxpayer money to house and feed the former US Drug Enforcement Administration agent for six more years. Scott's application is hardly unique, according to prisoners, defense attorneys and .
