APNEWS.COMWhat to know about the Newark mayors arrest at an immigration detention centerRep. Bonnie Watson Coleman, D-N.J., speaks with an officer demanding she be let into the ICE Detention office after the arrest of Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, Friday, May 9, 2025, in Newark, N.J. (AP Photo/Angelina Katsanis)2025-05-11T20:09:41Z NEWARK, N.J. (AP) An immigration detention center in New Jersey is at the center of tensions between three congressional Democrats and the Trump administration after the arrest of Newarks mayor set off a scrum outside the complex. Federal prosecutors charged Newark Mayor Ras Baraka with trespassing after agents arrested him outside the fence of the Delaney Hall detention center on Friday. The interim U.S. attorney for New Jersey says Baraka, a Democrat who is running for governor, ignored warnings to leave while he was there with three members of New Jerseys congressional delegation at the 1,000-bed Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility. The arrest escalated into a brief but tense confrontation in the parking lot that included the members of Congress and federal agents, some of whom wore masks. Department of Homeland spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin has accused Baraka of playing political games and said over the weekend that an investigation is ongoing and that more actions could be taken. The three members of Congress Reps. LaMonica McIver, Bonnie Watson Coleman and Robert Menendez Jr. have accused federal agents of escalating the situation by arresting the mayor.Heres what to know: Why were members of Congress at the facility?The representatives have said they went to the facility to inspect it as a matter of congressional oversight. We were able to get in, speak to detainees, check out the facilities, and make sure everything was OK there, Rep. Watson Coleman told CNN in an interview Sunday that also included her two New Jersey colleagues. We were there almost two hours before the confrontation took place, but ICE kept giving us the run-around and kept saying that they needed to talk to someone else. Department of Homeland Security officials have said that lawmakers had not asked for a tour of Delaney Hall and that the agency would have facilitated one. Watson Coleman spokesperson Ned Cooper has said the three lawmakers went there unannounced because they planned to inspect it, not take a scheduled tour. Why was the mayor of Newark arrested?Alina Habba, interim U.S. attorney for New Jersey, said on the social media platform X that Baraka was arrested after the mayor allegedly trespassed at the detention facility. She accused him of ignoring warnings to leave the facility, which he has denied. Baraka was arrested, booked and released the same day. He said he has a court appearance scheduled for Thursday. In video reviewed by The Associated Press, a federal official in a jacket with the logo of the Homeland Security Investigations can be heard telling Baraka he could not enter the facility because you are not a congress member. He was arrested after returning to the public side of the gate at the facility where protesters were gathered, video shows.Baraka, who is running to succeed term-limited Gov. Phil Murphy, has argued against the opening of the center, citing building permit issues. The facility, located along an industrial stretch of Newark Bay, opened on May 1. What is this Newark detention center, and why has it been in the news?Delaney Hall is a two-story building next to a county prison in Newark Bay that operated as a halfway house in previous years. In February, Immigration and Customs Enforcement announced that it and the GEO Group reached a $1 billion, 15-year deal for the detention center. The deal is significant for its size and duration, and GEO officials cited it in messages to investors as a big revenue generatorThe 1,000-bed capacity is also significant in advancing President Donald Trumps goals of expanding detention capacity in the U.S. beyond the previous 41,000 beds, in New Jersey, Michigan, and other states to 100,000 beds.Democrats, including Baraka, have opposed the opening of the facility. As mayor, Baraka sued to block the opening of the detention center, saying it hadnt completed all building requirements.DHS has said that the facility has the proper permits and completed the proper inspections.0 Yorumlar 0 hisse senetleri 133 Views 0 önizleme

Truman Building, headquarters for the State Department, is seen in Washington, March 9, 2009. (AP Photo/J. Scott Applewhite, File)2025-05-11T22:09:55Z CAPE TOWN, South Africa (AP) A group of 49 white South Africans departed their homeland Sunday for the United States on a private charter plane having been offered refugee status by the Trump administration under a new program announced in February.The group, which included families and small children, was due to arrive at Dulles International Airport outside Washington on Monday morning local time, according to Collen Msibi, a spokesperson for South Africas transport ministry.They are the first Afrikaners a white minority group in South Africa to be relocated after U.S. President Donald Trump issued an executive order on Feb. 7 accusing South Africas Black-led government of racial discrimination against them and announcing a program to offer them relocation to America. The South African government said it is completely false that Afrikaners are being persecuted. The Trump administration has fast-tracked their applications while pausing other refugee programs, halting arrivals from Afghanistan, Iraq, most of sub-Saharan Africa and other countries in a move being challenged in court. Refugee groups have questioned why the white South Africans are being prioritized ahead of people from countries wracked by war and natural disasters. Vetting for refugee status in the U.S. often takes years.The Trump administration says the South African government is pursuing racist, anti-white policies through affirmative action laws and a new land expropriation law it says targets Afrikaners land. The government says those claims are based on misinformation and there is no racism against Afrikaners and no land has been expropriated, although the contentious law has been passed and is the focus of criticism in South Africa. South Africa also denies U.S. claims that Afrikaners are being targeted in racially motivated attacks in some rural communities. Instead, the South African government said Afrikaners who are the descendants of Dutch and French colonial settlers are amongst the most economically privileged in the country. The first Afrikaner refugees were traveling on a flight operated by the Tulsa, Oklahoma-based charter company Omni Air International, Msibi said. They would fly to Dakar, Senegal and stop there to refuel before heading for Dulles.

Msibi said they would have to be vetted by police to ensure there were no criminal cases or outstanding warrants against them before being allowed to leave.The South African government said there was no justification for them being relocated but said it wouldnt stop them and respected their freedom of choice.They are expected to be greeted at Dulles by a U.S. government delegation, including the deputy secretary of state and officials from the Department of Health and Human Services, whose refugee office has organized their resettlement. The flight will be the first in a much larger-scale relocation effort, White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller told reporters on Friday. Miller said that what was happening to Afrikaners in South Africa fits the textbook definition of why the refugee program was created.This is persecution based on a protected characteristic in this case, race. This is race-based persecution, he said.The HHS Office for Refugee Resettlement was ready to offer them support, including with housing, furniture and other household items, and expenses like groceries, clothing, diapers and more, a document obtained by The Associated Press said. The document said the relocation of Afrikaners was a stated priority of the Administration.There are around 2.7 million Afrikaners among South Africas population of 62 million, which is more than 80% Black. They are only one part of the countrys white minority.Many in South Africa are puzzled by claims that Afrikaners are persecuted and meet the requirements to be relocated as refugees. They are part of South Africas everyday multi-racial life, with many successful business leaders and some serving in government as Cabinet ministers and deputy ministers. Their language is widely spoken and recognized as an official language, and churches and other institutions reflecting Afrikaner culture hold prominence in almost every city and town.The Trump administration has criticized South Africa on several fronts. Trumps February executive order cut all U.S. funding to South Africa over what it said was its anti-white stance and also accused it of pursuing an anti-American foreign policy. It cited South Africas ties with Iran and its move to lodge a genocide case against U.S. ally Israel over the war in Gaza as examples of it taking aggressive positions towards the United States. ___More AP news on the Trump administration: https://apnews.com/hub/donald-trump0 Yorumlar 0 hisse senetleri 133 Views 0 önizleme

APNEWS.COMZepbound beats Wegovy for weight loss in first head-to-head trial of blockbuster drugsBoxes for the medications Wegovy and Zepbound are arranged for a photograph in California on Thursday, May 8, 2025. (AP Photo/JoNel Aleccia)2025-05-11T22:01:47Z People taking Eli Lillys obesity drug, Zepbound, lost nearly 50% more weight than those using rival Novo Nordisks Wegovy in the first head-to-head study of the blockbuster medications.Clinical trial participants who took tirzepatide, the drug sold as Zepbound, lost an average of 50 pounds (22.8 kilograms) over 72 weeks, while those who took semaglutide, or Wegovy, lost about 33 pounds (15 kilograms). Thats according to the study funded by Lilly, which was published Sunday in the New England Journal of Medicine. Both drugs are part of a new class of medications that work by mimicking hormones in the gut and brain that regulate appetite and feelings of fullness. But tirzepatide targets two such hormones, known as GLP-1 and GIP, while semaglutide targets GLP-1 alone, said Dr. Louis Aronne, director of the Comprehensive Weight Control Center at Weill Cornell Medicine. Two drugs together can produce better weight loss, said Aronne, who led the study and presented the findings Sunday at the European Congress on Obesity in Spain.While tirzepatide won out in what Aronne said many view as a drag race of efficacy, both are important tools for treating obesity, which affects about 40% of American adults. The point of these medications is to improve health, he said. The majority of people wont need the most effective medication. The trial included 751 people from across the U.S. who were overweight or had obesity and at least one other weight-related health problem, but not diabetes. Participants received weekly injections of the highest tolerated doses of Zepbound, either 10 milligrams or 15 milligrams, or Wegovy, 1.7 milligrams or 2.4 milligrams. By the end of the trial, those who took Zepbound lost about 20% of their body weight on average, compared with a nearly 14% loss for those who took Wegovy. The tirzepatide group trimmed about 7 inches (17.8 centimeters) from their waist circumference, compared to about 5 inches (12.7 centimeters) with semaglutide. In addition, nearly 32% of people taking Zepbound lost at least a quarter of their body weight, compared to about 16% of those taking Wegovy, the study found. Weight loss was about 6% lower in men than in women in both groups, the authors noted. As participants in both groups lost more weight, they saw improvements in health markers such as blood pressure, blood fat and blood sugar levels. More than three-quarters of patients taking both drugs reported at least one side effect, mostly mild to moderate gastrointestinal issues such as nausea, constipation, diarrhea and vomiting. About 6% of participants taking Zepbound left the trial because of adverse events, compared with 8% of those taking semaglutide. The GLP-1 drugs have become increasingly popular, with at least 1 in 8 U.S. adults reporting their use, according to a 2024 survey by KFF, a independent health policy research organization. Zepbound generated $4.9 billion in global sales last year. Wegovy brought in nearly $8.8 billion (58.2 billlion Danish kroner). Access and affordability have limited wider use of the drugs. Tirzepatide and semaglutide were removed recently from a list of drug shortages by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Both manufacturers recently released programs that cut costs to about $500 per month or less, depending on the dose.Other factors can affect access. This week, CVS Health said Wegovy will become the preferred option on its standard formulary, or list of covered drugs, as of July 1. Zepbound will be excluded. Its important to have a range of drugs to treat a disease as widespread as obesity in the U.S., said Dr. Angela Fitch, chief medical officer of knownwell, an obesity care company. Wegovy has been found to cut the risk of serious heart problems by 20%, she noted. A drug may work well for one patient, but not for others. Were going to need to use them all just because we have so many patients who need treatment, she added. ___AP Health Writer Tom Murphy in Indianapolis contributed to this report. ___ The Associated Press Health and Science Department receives support from the Howard Hughes Medical Institutes Science and Educational Media Group and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.

APNEWS.COMTrump promises to order that the US pay only the price other nations do for some drugsPresident Donald Trump speaks with reporters as he signs an executive order in the Oval Office of the White House, Friday, May 9, 2025, in Washington. (AP Photo/Alex Brandon)2025-05-11T23:17:19Z WASHINGTON (AP) President Donald Trump says hell sign an executive order on Monday that, if implemented, could bring down the costs of some medications reviving a failed effort from his first term on an issue hes talked up since even before becoming president.The order Trump is promising will direct the Department of Health and Human Services to tie what Medicare pays for medications administrated in a doctors office to the lowest price paid by other countries. I will be instituting a MOST FAVORED NATIONS POLICY whereby the United States will pay the same price as the Nation that pays the lowest price anywhere in the World, the president posted Sunday on his social media site, pledging to sign the order on Monday morning at the White House. Our Country will finally be treated fairly, and our citizens Healthcare Costs will be reduced by numbers never even thought of before, Trump added. His proposal would likely only impact certain drugs covered by Medicare and given in an office think infusions that treat cancer, and other injectables. But it could potentially bring significant savings to the government, although the TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS Trump boasted about in his post may be an exaggeration. Medicare provides health insurance for roughly 70 million older Americans. Complaints about U.S. drug prices being notoriously high, even when compared with other large and wealthy countries, have long drawn the ire of both parties, but a lasting fix has never cleared Congress. Under the planned order, the federal government would tie what it pays pharmaceutical companies for those drugs to the price paid by a group of other, economically advanced countries the so-called most favored nation approach. The proposal will face fierce opposition from the pharmaceutical industry. It was a rule that Trump tried to adopt during his first term, but could never get through. He signed a similar executive order in the final weeks of his presidency, but a court order later blocked the rule from going into effect under the Biden administration. The pharmaceutical industry argued that Trumps 2020 attempt would give foreign governments the upper hand in deciding the value of medicines in the U.S.. The industry has long argued that forcing lower prices will hurt profits, and ultimately affect innovation and its efforts to develop new medicines. Only drugs on Medicare Part B the insurance for doctors office visits are likely to be covered under the plan. Medicare beneficiaries are responsible for picking up some of the costs to get those medications during doctors visits, and for traditional Medicare enrollees there is no annual out-of-pocket cap on what they pay. A report by the Trump administration during its first term found that the U.S. spends twice as much as some other countries in covering those drugs. Medicare Part B drug spending topped $33 billion in 2021. More common prescription drugs filled at a pharmacy would probably not be covered by the new order. Trumps post formally previewing the action came after he teased a very big announcement last week. He gave no details, except to note that it wasnt related to trade or the tariffs he has announced imposing on much of the world. Were going to have a very, very big announcement to make like as big as it gets, Trump said last week.He came into his first term accusing pharmaceutical companies of getting away with murder and complaining that other countries whose governments set drug prices were taking advantage of Americans.On Sunday, Trump took aim at the industry again, writing that the Pharmaceutical/Drug Companies would say, for years, that it was Research and Development Costs, and that all of these costs were, and would be, for no reason whatsoever, borne by the suckers of America, ALONE. Referring to drug companies powerful lobbying efforts, he said that campaign contributions can do wonders, but not with me, and not with the Republican Party. We are going to do the right thing, he wrote. WILL WEISSERT Weissert covers the White House for The Associated Press.

APNEWS.COMDetained ex-President Duterte is among the candidates in Philippines midtermsFormer Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is seen on a screen in the courtroom of the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague, Netherlands, March 14, 2025. (AP Photo/Peter Dejong, Pool, file)2025-05-11T23:07:14Z MANILA, Philippines (AP) Even though he is detained in The Hague, former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is among the candidates vying for some 18,000 national and local seats in Mondays midterm elections that analysts say will decide if he and his family continue to hold political power. Duterte has been in custody of the International Criminal Court since March, awaiting trial for crimes against humanity over a brutal war on illegal drugs that has left thousands of suspects dead during his presidency 2016-2022. It hasnt stopped him from running for mayor of his southern Davao city stronghold.Under Philippine law, candidates facing criminal charges, including those in detention, can run for office unless they have been convicted and have exhausted all appeals.Duterte is widely expected to win as Davao mayor, a position he held for over two decades before becoming president. Its less clear how he can practically serve as mayor from behind bars. Over 68 million Filipinos have registered to vote Monday for half of the 24-member Senate, all the 317 seats in the House of Representatives and various positions in provinces, cities and municipalities. The spotlight is on the race for the Senate that could determine the political future of Dutertes daughter, Vice President Sara Duterte. She faces an impeachment trial in the Senate in July over accusations of plotting to assassinate President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and corruption involving her offices intelligence funds. She has denied the allegations, saying they were spread by her political opponents to destroy her. Stay up to date with similar stories by signing up to our WhatsApp channel. Sara Duterte is considered a strong contender for the 2028 presidential race. But if convicted by the Senate, she will be removed as vice president and disqualified from holding public office. To be acquitted, she needs at least nine of 24 senators to vote in her favor. The 2025 midterm elections will be crucial, because the results will set the pace for what will happen next, which family or faction will dominate the elections in 2028, said Maria Ela Atienza, a political science professor at the University of the Philippines. If Sara Duterte is convicted in the impeachment trial, it could signal the end of the Duterte family holding key positions in the country, she said. Other family members running in the election include Rodrigo Dutertes youngest son, Sebastian, the incumbent mayor of Davao who is now running for vice mayor. His eldest son Paolo is seeking reelection as a member of the House of Representatives. Two grandsons are also running in local races.The impeachment and Rodrigo Dutertes arrest and transfer to the tribunal in The Hague came after Marcos and Sara Dutertes ties unraveled over political differences and their competing ambitions.This election will decide the future of our country, Sara Duterte said in a rally in Manila last week, where she campaigned for the family-backed senatorial candidates and criticized the Marcos administration.
