Good evening. It’s Wednesday, February 26.

 

Andrew Tate and his brother, Tristan, have left Romania for the United States.

It is not clear under what conditions the Tates were allowed to leave Romania. The brothers are charged with human trafficking and forming a criminal gang to sexually exploit women.

An official at the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the case, told The Associated Press the decision was at the discretion of prosecutors.

President Donald Trump tapped Elon Musk to speak at the top of the first full Cabinet meeting on Wednesday to discuss the progress made by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

Musk, standing in his signature black suit jacket with a T-shirt underneath, spoke at the meeting in which the media was present and made some clarifications about what he and DOGE are doing, as well as a recent email sent to government employees.

“I actually just call myself a humble tech support hero,” Musk stated. “As crazy as it sounds, that is almost a literal description of the work of the DOGE team is doing is helping fix the government computer systems,” he said, saying the computer systems are “extremely old” and there are many mistakes in the systems.

Attorney General Pam Bondi teased Wednesday that the Justice Department will likely release documents related to Jeffrey Epstein “tomorrow,” including the flight logs from the notorious sex predator’s private jet.

Bondi, who revealed last week that the highly sought documents were sitting on her desk for review, told Fox News host Jesse Watters that the public should expect to see at least “some Epstein information” made public on Thursday, when redactions related to the dead pedophile’s victims are completed.

“There are well over – this will make you sick – 200 victims 
 over 250, actually,” the attorney general told Watters, explaining the delay in releasing the documents.

Chief Justice John Roberts temporarily delayed a midnight deadline for the Trump administration to unfreeze nearly $2 billion in foreign aid payments, imposed by a lower judge who found the administration had flouted his ruling.

The administration said it could not feasibly resume payments on the rapid timeline set by U.S. District Judge Amir Ali, who on Tuesday directed the State Department and U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) to resume funding for foreign aid contracts and grants by the end of Wednesday.

“This new order requiring payment of enormous sums of foreign-assistance money in less than 36 hours intrudes on the prerogatives of the Executive Branch. The President’s power is at its apex—and the power of the judiciary is at its nadir—in matters of foreign affairs,” acting Solicitor General Sarah Harris wrote in the emergency motion to the high court.

Amazon founder and Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos said on Wednesday that his newspaper will undergo a “significant shift” in its opinion section, focusing more on the “support and defense of two pillars: personal liberties and free markets.”

Bezos, who has criticized his paper for its “continuing fall in credibility,” announced the change in a note to Washington Post staff on Wednesday morning.

“I am of America and for America, and proud to be so. Our country did not get here by being typical. And a big part of America’s success has been freedom in the economic realm and everywhere else,” Bezos wrote. “Freedom is ethical — it minimizes coercion — and practical — it drives creativity, invention, and prosperity.” Bezos said the Post will “cover other topics too of course, but viewpoints opposing those pillars will be left to be published by others.”

A Maine legislature voted to silence a Republican state lawmaker after she exposed a transgender high school athlete who won first place in a girls’ competition.

Laurel Libby, 43, of Auburn, posted on Facebook last week about a trans student winning a state championship pole vaulting competition.

It came just two years after she made fifth place in the boys’ event, according to the state representative.

The first phase of a ceasefire deal between Israel and the Hamas was completed early Thursday when the Palestinian terrorist group handed over four bodies belonging to hostages whom it murdered on October 7 and afterwards.

In return, Israel released over 600 convicted Palestinian terrorists, who were sent to a variety of different locations.

The Times of Israel reported:

The bodies believed to be of four hostages kidnapped by Hamas-led terrorists and held captive in Gaza for over 16 months were returned to Israel early Thursday in a nighttime handover devoid of macabre theatrics that had punctuated previous handovers.

An unknown illness has killed over 50 people in the northwest of the Democratic Republic of Congo, according to doctors in the central African nation and the World Health Organization.

The interval between the onset of symptoms and death has been just 48 hours in the majority of cases, and “that’s what’s really worrying,” Serge Ngalebato, medical director of Bikoro Hospital, a regional monitoring center, told The Associated Press on Monday.

The latest disease outbreak in Congo began on Jan. 21, and 419 cases had been recorded as of Monday, including 53 deaths.
