Trump's NASA pick was once arrested, accused of passing bad checks to casinos

lsaacmanPresident Donald Trump's nominee for NASA administrator, Jared Isaacman, was arrested on fraud charges in 2010 and faced lawsuits in two states for writing $2 million in bad checks to casinos, according to government records and court filings.

Isaacman is a billionaire pilot and astronaut who founded the Shift4 Payments company as a teenager and commanded the first civilian space crew in 2021 aboard a SpaceX capsule.

In a February 22, 2010, press release titled, "Nevada Fugitive Captured at Canadian Border," U.S. Customs and Border Protection said it arrested Isaacman on a warrant for alleged fraud at the Washington state line. He was taken to a county jail for extradition to Nevada, where Clark County, home to Las Vegas, had issued the felony warrant. No further detail on the alleged fraud was provided.

Court Blocks Trump's Federal Union-Busting Plan, Calling It 'Unlawful'

trump union busting deniedA federal judge issued an injunction late Friday temporarily blocking the Trump administration from stripping collective bargaining rights from hundreds of thousands of federal workers.

Judge Paul L. Friedman, of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, wrote in his brief order that the White House’s policy meant to weaken unions is “unlawful.” Friedman said the court would offer its reasoning for that determination in a forthcoming opinion.

In late March, President Donald Trump signed an executive order carving a long list of agencies out of federal labor law protections in the name of “national security.” But many of the affected employees, including nurses, biologists and park rangers, don’t do any national security work.

UN agency runs out of food aid in Gaza after Israeli blockade

Gaza food gone

The UN World Food Programme says it has depleted all its food stocks in Gaza, where Israel has blocked deliveries of humanitarian aid for seven weeks.

"Today, WFP delivered its last remaining food stocks to hot meals kitchens," it warned. "These kitchens are expected to fully run out of food in the coming days."

Israel cut off aid on 2 March and resumed its offensive two weeks later after the collapse of a two-month ceasefire, saying it was putting pressure on Hamas to release its remaining hostages.

The UN says Israel is obliged under international law to ensure supplies for the 2.1 million Palestinians in Gaza. Israel says it is complying with international law and there is no aid shortage.

During similar talks last week in Paris, U.S. officials presented a proposal that included allowing Russia to keep control of occupied Ukrainian territory as part of a deal, according to a European official familiar with the matter.

The official, who was not authorized to comment publicly and spoke on the condition of anonymity, said the issue is expected to be on the agenda for discussion again this week as all parties focus on finding consensus on a credible approach for ending the war that the United States can convey to the Russians.

Virginia Giuffre, Who Accused Jeffrey Epstein Of Sexual Abuse, Dies By Suicide, Her Family Says

GiuffreVirginia Giuffre, one of the most prominent accusers of Jeffrey Epstein, has died by suicide at age 41, her family told multiple news outlets on Friday.

Giuffre met Ghislaine Maxwell in 2000 while she was a teenager working at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago. Maxwell offered her a job as a masseuse to Epstein, a wealthy financier, which allegedly kicked off years of sex trafficking and abuse.

“It is with utterly broken hearts that we announce that Virginia passed away last night at her farm in Western Australia,” her family said in a statement to NBC News. “She lost her life to suicide, after being a lifelong victim of sexual abuse and sex trafficking.”

As an adult, Giuffre sued Epstein and Maxwell, then took her accusations public. Her story featured prominently in the Miami Herald’s series that reexamined how the criminal justice system failed the many young women and girls abused by Epstein. In 2019, he was arrested on federal sex trafficking charges and later died in custody.
