bing news | Read an FBI agent's email about the impending arrest of Jeffrey Epstein
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
The article reveals an internal FBI email chain from July 2019 showing that agents received a tip that Jeffrey Epstein was scheduled to land at Teterboro Airport from Paris, prompting them to ready an arrest. The message lists Epstein’s identifying information (born January 20 1953, private‑jet tail number N212JE) and includes an attached arrest warrant, while outlining coordination with Customs and Border Protection to ensure a smooth apprehension. Agents discuss the need for roughly 24‑hour notice of his arrivals, plan to meet at the airport early, and emphasize the logistical steps required to capture Epstein as he returned to the United States.

"The bill Congress just passed,🚨lavishing another $69.5 billion on ICE and CBP through 2029,🚨has so few guidelines on how to use the money, and so little built-in oversight, that it's only 1,532 words long.
A $69.5b slush fund that could've been an email."

Don’t take the bait. As soon as #Republicans pass the $72 billion bill to fund #ICE & #CBP operations, #Trump will restart the #MAGASlushFund. He cannot be trusted. Learn already!
“Trump administration signals to GOP leaders it will drop a $1.8 billion ‘anti-weaponization’ fund, but the president has yet to weigh in publicly”

ABC News: Top Stories | First wave of tariff refunds will hit some businesses tomorrow
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
The first wave of tariff refunds is set to start hitting American businesses’ bank accounts, with U.S. Customs and Border Protection reporting that over 330,000 importers paid $166 billion in tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act before the Supreme Court ruled the program illegal. By April 26, at least 75,000 firms had applied for refunds through a new online portal, though about 15 % of claims were rejected for errors or ineligible shipments. Large companies anticipate sizable payouts—Walmart reportedly is due $10 billion, Target $2 billion, Nike $1 billion and Macy’s $320 million—and say the money will be used to pay down debt, rehire staff, restock inventory, or possibly lower prices, rather than being passed directly to consumers. Shipping firms such as UPS, FedEx, and DHL will refund customers for packages affected by the tariffs, but shoppers should not expect personal rebates for higher prices paid last year, which the Tax Foundation estimates cost the average household roughly $700.

Home - CBSNews.com | Feds have rejected 15% of businesses' tariff refund claims
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
Since the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) launched its new Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries (CAPE) tariff‑refund portal on April 20, more than 75,000 refund requests have been submitted, but roughly 15 % have been rejected. The agency reports that over 47,000 claims—covering about $11 million in tariff payments—were properly filed, while many rejections appear to stem from businesses submitting claims outside the parameters allowed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act or making errors in their filings. Apart from a brief 18‑minute outage on launch day, the system has operated smoothly, a fact praised by customs officials and trade lawyers who note the rapid rollout and overall functionality of the new portal.

NEW: As Arrests at Anti-ICE Protests Piled Up, Prosecutions Crumbled

"The Trump years will be remembered for its cruelty and cover-ups. The level of sadism and brutality by the White House and its GOP enablers is both shocking and intentional, even as efforts to cover up or distract from crimes remain painfully obvious."

On Friday, I testified in front of Governor J.B. Pritzker’s “Illinois Accountability Commission,” ... I was called as the commission’s expert witness on the history of problems, corruption, and training within CBP and ICE — a story I’ve covered for more than a dozen years ... however bad you think it is, the reality is far far worse. ...
We as a nation must act to change the trajectory of immigration enforcement in our country. America cannot survive as a free society if ICE and CBP continue to operate as they have over the last year — let alone as both agencies are turbocharged and empowered with even more funding, more officers, more guns, and more arrests.

According to several people with knowledge of the telephone conversation, which took place on Jan. 12, Mr. Bovino made derisive remarks about the faith of the U.S. attorney in Minnesota, Daniel N. Rosen. Mr. Rosen is an Orthodox Jew and observes Shabbat, a period of rest between Friday and Saturday nights that often includes refraining from using electronic devices.
Mr. Bovino, who has been the face of the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown, used the term “chosen people” in a mocking way, according to the people with knowledge of the call. He also asked, sarcastically, whether Mr. Rosen understood that Orthodox Jewish criminals don’t take weekends off, the people said.

"The administration is appealing to the MAGA racist and Christian nationalist base by demonstrating that it is willing to violate the Constitution to impose MAGA’s ideology on the nation. But it is also apparently trying to signal to white American citizens that they should think they are safe from an authoritarian administration: its top victims remain Black Americans and people of color."
