Judge Blocks Trump Administration From Deploying National Guard to Oregon

A federal judge has temporarily blocked the Trump administration from sending National Guard troops to Oregon, including units from California. The ruling comes after President Trump ordered California Guard members to assist in Oregon earlier Sunday. The same judge had already blocked the deployment of Oregon’s own National Guard the day before and later expanded her order. The White House says the president remains committed to maintaining law and order despite the legal roadblock.

Israel and Hamas Head to Egypt for Ceasefire Talks

Israel and Hamas are preparing for indirect negotiations in Egypt on Monday, raising hopes for a possible ceasefire in Gaza. The talks come nearly two years after the Hamas attack that sparked the ongoing conflict. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has indicated that a hostage release could be announced this week. President Trump is pressing both sides to end the fighting, with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio saying the situation is closer than ever to a ceasefire. An Egyptian official confirmed the Hamas delegation has arrived in Egypt, with Israel’s team expected Monday. Despite the upcoming negotiations, strikes in Gaza continue even as Trump urges Israel to halt bombing.

Trump Tells Israel To Stop Bombing Gaza For Ceasefire Talks After Hamas Says It's Open To Negotiations

Hamas said on Friday it would agree to some aspects of U.S. President Donald Trump's plan to end the Gaza war, including releasing hostages and handing over administration of the enclave, but that it would seek negotiations over many of its other terms. In a copy of the statement seen by Reuters, Hamas issued its response to Trump's 20-point plan after the U.S. president gave the Palestinian militant group until Sunday to accept or reject the proposal. Trump has not said whether the terms would be subject to negotiation, as Hamas is seeking. Notably, Hamas did not say whether it would agree to a stipulation that it disarm, a demand by Israel and the U.S. that it has previously rejected. In its statement, Hamas said it "appreciates the Arab, Islamic, and international efforts, as well as the efforts of U.S. President Donald Trump, calling for an end to the war on the Gaza Strip, the exchange of prisoners, (and) the immediate entry of aid," among other terms. It said it was announcing its "approval of releasing all occupation prisoners — both living and remains — according to the exchange formula contained in President Trump’s proposal, with the necessary field conditions for implementing the exchange." But Hamas added: "In this context, the movement affirms its readiness to immediately enter, through the mediators, into negotiations to discuss the details." The group said it was ready "to hand over the administration of the Gaza Strip to a Palestinian body of independents (technocrats) based on Palestinian national consensus and supported by Arab and Islamic backing." The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Hamas' response to the proposal, which is backed by Israel as well as Arab and European powers. Trump's plan specifies an immediate ceasefire, an exchange of all hostages held by Hamas for Palestinian prisoners held by Israel, a staged Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, the disarmament of Hamas and the introduction of a transitional government led by an international body.

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs sentenced to 4 years and 2 months in prison

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has been sentenced to 4 years and 2 months in prison in case involving sex workers, violence and “freak-offs.” The judge says a lengthy sentence is needed for deterrence and that he is unconvinced that if Combs is released these crimes won’t happen again. The 55-year-old hip-hop mogul was convicted in July of flying people across state lines for drug-fueled marathon sexual encounters, violations of the the Mann Act. Jurors acquitted him of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking charges that could have carried a life sentence.
