Nobel Peace laureate Navi Pillay urged the United States to defend human rights and return to what she called its traditional role as a global leader.

Pillay made her comments in The Hague, where she is a judge at the International Court of Justice.

The United States announced sanctions targeting the International Criminal Court hours after Pillay was named the Peace Prize winner.

She said the timing was troubling and showed that efforts to target international criminal justice had been developing for some time.

Federal agents searched the Washington home of Ilhan Omar, a Democratic member of Congress from Minnesota.

The Justice Department said the search was carried out under a court-authorised warrant as part of an ongoing criminal investigation, but did not name Omar or explain the investigation.

News reports linked the search to a fraud inquiry about immigration paperwork filed by Omar’s late father when she was a child; officials have not confirmed that link.

Omar, who came to the United States from Somalia as a child, said the search was an attempt to target political opponents.

A US Marine was arrested on suspicion of killing an Okinawan woman at a hotel in Naha, the prefectural capital.

The discussions will cover the military’s liberty policy, education and joint patrols by US forces and Japanese police.

A new AP-NORC poll found most Americans think Trump is profiting from the presidency in unethical or illegal ways.

About 6 in 10 U.S. adults said he is either profiting illegally or acting unethically without breaking the law.

The poll also found that many believe Trump is more focused on personal wealth than helping the country since returning to the White House.

The findings come as his family's businesses have expanded in real estate and entered cryptocurrency ventures.

A 1960 study predicted population growth would reach infinity on November 13, 2026, which its authors described as a doomsday.

Physicist Heinz von Foerster and his colleagues at the University of Illinois based the prediction on population trends stretching back 2,000 years.

They argued that human cooperation and innovation would keep accelerating growth, rather than letting it level off as it does in other species.

That prediction was wrong: population growth has slowed, and experts say the world’s fastest growth had already occurred by the early 1960s.

Musgraves replied on X: “I don’t think you have a dog in this fight but if you did you would have shot it.”
