The document, certified by the United States Information Agency, shows USAID providing full tuition funding for Anwar al-Awlaki, listed as a Yemeni student under a J-1 exchange visa program, though he was actually a U.S. citizen born in New Mexico. Officials encouraged the false Yemen birthplace claim to qualify him. Al-Awlaki later earned his civil engineering degree around 1994, but his path shifted after 9/11, leading him to al Qaeda leadership in Yemen until a 2011 U.S. drone strike. The resurfaced paperwork, first public in 2015 and highlighted again recently, spotlights vetting risks in taxpayer-funded programs.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

A old government form reveals how U.S. aid paid for a young student's engineering degree at Colorado State University—years before he became al Qaeda's top English-speaking voice.

In a letter to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Attorney General Pam Bondi dated Tuesday, Democratic Senators Elizabeth Warren and Jack Reed requested an investigation by December 1 into World Liberty Financial's compliance with anti-money laundering rules, sanctions, and governance. The demand stems from a September report by Accountable.US alleging the project sold $WLFI governance tokens to wallets linked to North Korea's Lazarus Group, a Russian sanctions-evasion stablecoin, Iran's NoBitex exchange, and the sanctioned mixer Tornado Cash. DT Marks DEFI LLC, controlled by Donald Trump and his family, holds 22.5 billion tokens and receives 75% of sales revenue, while the project lists Trump family members in prominent roles; World Liberty Financial maintains it has robust compliance measures with no evidence of wrongdoing.

In a Church Times interview following his recent West Bank visit, Archbishop of York Stephen Cottrell described Israeli military actions in Gaza as deliberately indiscriminate and genocidal acts, while labeling the West Bank a regime of apartheid and ethnic cleansing through settler expansion. He emphasized that his criticism targets state policies, not Judaism or Jewish people, and supports Church divestment from occupation-enabling companies. Chief Rabbi Sir Ephraim Mirvis rebuked the remarks as irresponsible and morally inverted, planning a personal letter to Cottrell amid growing divides among UK faith leaders over the Gaza conflict now in its second year.

In 2025 remarks, Republican Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana called out what he saw as massive waste in USAID's $40 billion annual spending, citing funds for a transgender clinic in India, meals to al-Qaeda-linked groups, and aid to Hamas-tied organizations in Gaza. The Trump administration then slashed USAID, cutting staff to under 300 and absorbing operations into the State Department, with many examples like DEI training in Serbia and LGBTQ health in Guatemala holding up under checks. Conservatives celebrated the moves amid $39 trillion U.S. debt concerns, while critics warned of 600,000-760,000 deaths from halted programs; by 2026, Congress restored some aid with stricter rules.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Senator John Kennedy stood on the Senate floor, listing eyebrow-raising USAID projects funded by U.S. taxpayers, from electric vehicles in Vietnam to a Sesame Street show in Iraq.

A February 19 post claimed the couple is expecting their first child together, drawing over 21,000 likes, memes about their ages—Perry at 41, Trudeau at 53—and jokes from users like psychologist Gad Saad. Fact-checks confirm no evidence supports the pregnancy; the photo is real from Perry's vacation, but the caption is unverified rumor. Their relationship went public late last year with snaps from Tokyo and holidays, and sources say it's grown more serious since Trudeau stepped down as prime minister in 2025. Both have kids from prior marriages—Perry's daughter Daisy, 5, and Trudeau's three children—and they've stayed quiet amid the buzz.

In rural northern and central Afghanistan, families use a centuries-old method called kangina: they pack ripe grapes like Taifi or Kishmishi into clay-straw bowls, seal them airtight with mud, and store in cool spots.

Vendors like Mumtaz and Wazir Khan rely on it for markets, praising its chemical-free simplicity rooted in traditions dating back centuries.
