The Republican-led House Oversight Committee announced Tuesday that it will seek to hold former President Bill Clinton in contempt of Congress after he failed to appear for a deposition as part of the panel’s probe into the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. “As a result of Bill Clinton not showing up for his lawful subpoena, which again was voted unanimously by the committee in a bipartisan manner, we will move next week in the House Oversight Committee markup to hold former President Clinton in contempt of Congress,” Oversight Committee Chair James Comer, R-Ky., told reporters Tuesday morning on Capitol…

The Trump administration is ending temporary protection status (TPS) for Somalia, affecting several thousand Somalis currently living in the U.S. and several hundred currently living in Minnesota under the protection. Somali migrants with TPS will be required to leave the country by March 17. “Temporary means temporary,” DHS Secretary Kristi Noem told Fox News Digital in a statement. “Country conditions in Somalia have improved to the point that it no longer meets the law’s requirement for Temporary Protected Status.” “Further, allowing Somali nationals to remain temporarily in the United States is contrary to our national interests,” Noem added. “We are…
Detectives from the Land Fraud Investigations Unit (LFIU) apprehended two individuals in connection with the fraudulent acquisition of a prime piece of land valued at approximately Sh5 billion in Mau Narok, Njoro Sub-County. Investigation has since unveiled that this land, which measures around 4,296 acres, was purchased by the rightful owner from Class Kenya Farming Limited Settlement Fund Trustees for Sh5 million as documented in an agreement dated June 13, 1977, which was drawn up by T. K. Patel. For years, the land has been embroiled in a legal dispute between the two suspects Josphat Munke Ole Mpoe and Joseph…
President Donald Trump’s efforts to leverage the Justice Department for political purposes and to exact retribution against his perceived foes haven’t suffered from a series of setbacks. We’ve seen little in the way of major cases against left-leaning political people and groups that Trump has suggested could or should be targeted. And as prosecutions of former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James struggle to get back off the ground after Trump’s handpicked prosecutor was disqualified, there’s a real risk of the whole thing backfiring. But Trump and his administration don’t appear deterred. In fact, as…
When DeepSeek’s breakthrough AI model took the tech world by storm earlier this year, its success was partly credited to a small but exceptionally talented team that managed to build advanced AI technology with limited resources — and among them, Luo stood out. As one of the key developers behind the open-source foundation model DeepSeek-V2, she earned recognition from industry experts for her pioneering work in natural language processing, as reported by NDTV. Behind her achievements at DeepSeek lies years of persistence and discovery that began in her student years. Born in 1995 in Yibin, China’s Sichuan, Luo studied at…
President William Ruto Monday cautioned leaders against politicising government programmes aimed at transforming the lives of Kenyans. He faulted those criticising the government’s National Youth Opportunities Towards Advancement (NYOTA) programme for disbursing Sh50,000, an amount they say is little. He noted that those opposing the programme have no better alternatives, nor have they done anything to empower the youth in the many years they have served in government. He reminded them not to despise humble beginnings. “If you think Sh50,000 is little money, it is little to you and your family because you are rich. With Sh50,000 you can begin…
The Department of Homeland Security on Monday said it would invest $115 million in counter-drone technologies to secure the World Cup and events marking 250 years of American independence. The money will be overseen by a new DHS office focused on quickly buying and deploying drone and counter-drone technologies. It’s a big bet on high-tech tools for a department under pressure to secure those high-profile events but also aiming to meet President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown demands. The news also comes as a response to the increasing technological sophistication of drug cartels, which have used their own drones and cyberattacks…
Xabi Alonso has left his position as Real Madrid manager after just eight months in charge, with his former Liverpool team-mate Alvaro Arbeloa taking over. The La Liga side said former Bayer Leverkusen manager Alonso, 44, had left by “mutual consent” and minutes later announced Arbeloa’s appointment. The former Spain and Real full-back has been promoted from coaching Real’s B team. Real were beaten by rivals Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup on Sunday and trail Barca by four points in La Liga. Alonso – who spent five years with Real as a player – won the Bundesliga with Leverkusen…
President Donald Trump is weighing a series of potential military options in Iran following deadly protests in the country, two US officials told CNN, as he considers following through on his recent threats to strike the Iranian regime should it use lethal force against civilians. Trump was briefed in recent days on different plans for intervention, the officials told CNN, as violence in the country has led to dozens of deaths and arrests. A number of options presented to the president have centered on targeting Tehran’s security services being used to tamp down the protests, the US officials said. Trump…
Cuba’s leader has pushed back on Donald Trump’s demand that the Caribbean nation “make a deal” with Washington, as the US president warned that Havana would be cut off from the Venezuelan oil and money that it’s relied on for decades. “No one dictates what we do,” Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel said Sunday on X, responding to Trump’s insistence that the communist nation do a deal “before it’s too late.” Cuba has long received massive aid packages from oil-rich Venezuela, but the capture of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro during a US operation, and Trump’s announcement that Venezuela will turn over…
Ofcom has launched an investigation into Elon Musk’s X over concerns its AI tool Grok is being used to create sexualised images. In a statement, the UK watchdog said there had been “deeply concerning reports” of the chatbot being used to create and share undressed images of people, as well as “sexualised images of children”. If found to have broken the law, Ofcom can potentially issue X with a fine of up to 10% of its worldwide revenue or £18 million, whichever is greater. X referred the BBC to a statement posted by its Safety account at the start of…
Most users don’t want a theory of AI detection. They want to know whether a tool is useful before they rely on it. Dechecker’s AI Checker is designed around that expectation. It focuses on clear output, practical signals, and realistic writing scenarios instead of technical explanations. What the AI Checker Actually Checks It Checks Whether the Text Behaves Like AI Writing Dechecker does not try to guess who wrote the text. It checks whether the text acts like something produced by an AI model. This includes how sentences are formed, how ideas are expanded, and how consistent the writing remains…
Something shifts after having kids. Not overnight. Not dramatically. More like a slow recalibration. You look in the mirror and recognize yourself, but also don’t. Skin behaves differently. Energy runs on a new schedule. Confidence feels quieter, more selective. Beauty after babies stops being about chasing a look. It turns into maintenance, restraint, decision-making. What actually helps. What feels worth the time. What does not pull focus away from everything else already demanding attention. This is where gentle aesthetics and smarter self-care start to matter.

Something has shifted. You can feel it in conversations between friends, in clinic waiting rooms, even in the way women talk about their bodies online. Treatments that once sat firmly in the “cosmetic” box now live somewhere else. Closer to health. Closer to control. Closer to peace with the mirror. 2026 does not look like the early Botox era. It looks calmer. More intentional. Less about fixing and more about managing, maintaining, choosing. Women are not chasing perfection anymore. They are negotiating with time, hormones, stress, weight, skin, energy. All at once. And the treatments shaping confidence today reflect that…
Sudan’s Prime Minister Kamil Idris has announced the government’s return to Khartoum, after nearly three years of operating from its wartime capital of Port Sudan. In the early days of the civil war between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in April 2023, the army-aligned government fled the capital, which was quickly overrun by rival troops. The government has pursued a gradual return to Khartoum since the army recapturedthe city last March. “Today, we return, and the Government of Hope returns to the national capital,” Idris told reporters on Sunday in Khartoum, which has…
