'Chasing rumours abroad': US Congressman slams Biden govt over Adani indictment
Wednesday, 8 January 2025 RepublicanCongressman Lance Gooden questioned the US Department of Justice's indictment of industrialist Gautam Adani, labeling it a 'selective action' that may harm US-India relations. The DOJ charged Adani and associates with a $250 million bribery scheme to secure solar power projects in India. Adani's group denied the allegations and vowed to contest the case vigorously.
In a critical legal development, Simon Sandoval-Moshenberg, the attorney for Kilmar Abrego Garcia, held a press briefing following the Supreme Court's decision that forces the Trump Administration to "facilitate" Garcia's return to the U.S. after his wrongful deportation. The high-stakes case took another turn as Judge Paula Xinis ordered the Department of Justice to provide daily updates on Garcia’s case, signaling significant legal momentum in favor of his return.

Former President Donald Trump is threatening tariffs—and possibly sanctions—against Mexico, accusing the country of “stealing water” from Texas farmers. Citing the 1944 Water Treaty, Trump claims Mexico owes Texas 1.3 million acre-feet of water and is hurting local agriculture. He slammed the Biden administration for inaction and praised Ted Cruz and Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins for defending Texas. The standoff escalates amid worsening drought and failing irrigation systems in South Texas. Analysts warn of a disastrous crop season if the water crisis remains unresolved.

Former President Donald Trump rolled back an Obama-Biden era rule limiting showerheads to 2.5 gallons per minute, calling the regulation “ridiculous.” During his White House tenure, Trump joked about the low water pressure affecting his ability to shower and wash his “beautiful hair.” The move was part of his sweeping deregulation campaign and extended to toilets, dishwashers, and more. Supporters see it as a win for personal freedom, while critics warn it could waste water and raise energy bills. Biden later reinstated the original rule after taking office.

The US is reportedly considering withdrawing up to 10,000 troops from Eastern Europe, NBC reports. These forces were initially deployed by the Biden administration after the Ukraine conflict intensified. Trump’s focus now shifts to China, as ceasefire talks with Russia gain momentum. NATO allies in Poland and Romania, where most troops are stationed, fear this signals a US retreat. Experts warn it could embolden Moscow. As Trump pushes Europe to boost its defense spending, a new strategic order is brewing, with troop cuts likely reshaping NATO’s eastern flank.

The U.S. has revoked all visas held by South Sudanese passport holders and halted future issuances, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced Saturday. The decision follows Juba’s alleged refusal to accept deported nationals. The State Department criticized South Sudan’s transitional government for “taking advantage” of U.S. leniency. The move comes amid worsening instability in South Sudan, which faces mass displacement and food crises. The Biden administration says visa restrictions will remain until full cooperation is ensured. South Sudan’s Foreign Ministry and the UN have not responded to requests for comment.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt addresses growing controversy around the House GOP’s passage of the SAVE Act, a bill that critics say could disenfranchise millions—especially women and marginalized voters. While Republicans argue it’s about securing elections, Democrats and voting rights activists warn the law could purge eligible voters, particularly married women whose names may differ on documentation. Hillary Clinton, among others, has spoken out fiercely against the measure.
