President Trump on Friday pardoned 11 people, including a former business partner of Washington lobbyist Jack Abramoff and nine people identified by the White House as having helped people bypass emissions control systems on vehicles. The acts of clemency come as Trump has issued a slew of pardons in his second term, particularly for allies, public figures and those seen as politically aligned. His use of the presidency’s sweeping ability to unilaterally grant pardons and commute sentences is among the ways the Republican’s return to office has featured an expansive use of executive power.

Matheus Cunha is not interested in Brazil’s storied World Cup history – he simply wants to make his mark in the 2026 tournament. Brazil take on Norway in the round of 16 on Sunday knowing a win would edge them a step closer to clinching the country’s sixth world title. And while this is not a vintage Selecao side compared to previous iterations, Carlo Ancelotti’s men have landed in arguably the weaker half of the draw and stand a good chance to reach at least the last four. First up, though, is Norway and Cunha is focused fully on the…

President Trump ushered in the 250th anniversary of American independence on Friday with soaring rhetoric about American exceptionalism before veering into a darkly political speech with warnings about a sinister threat of communism that evoked one of the country’s ugliest chapters. “Communism is a mortal threat to American liberty,” he said from Mount Rushmore. “It is the greatest threat to our country, including World War I, World War II, Pearl Harbor or even 9/11.” While the language was similar to several other speeches Trump has given in recent days, it was notable for being delivered in a national park that…
