Iranian accounts claim construction started last week on the 657-kilometer Herat-Mazar-e-Sharif railway in Afghanistan, built by Iranian firms and funded by local minerals for a seamless connection to China. Proponents see it as a sanctions workaround via the Five Nations Corridor, potentially slashing trade distances by 50% and opening paths for pipelines. No confirmation comes from Iran's Railways, Afghanistan's Ministry of Public Works, or state media, despite recent Tehran talks on June 8 and ongoing feasibility studies. The project follows years of delays, with security and funding hurdles still in play.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

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.

A UN official told the Security Council this week that Taliban bans since September 2021 block girls from secondary schools, universities, and most jobs, with primary enrollment dropping amid travel restrictions and strict dress codes. Over 2.6 million adolescent girls are affected, 250,000 more each year, fueling underground home schools by activists and protests met with crackdowns. A nationwide survey shows 92% of Afghans support girls' secondary education, while health crises like clinic closures worsen maternal deaths, and UNICEF warns of losing 25,000 female teachers and health workers by 2030.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Imagine 3.8 million girls aged 7 to 18 dreaming of classrooms, yet barred by Taliban rules five years after their 2021 takeover. It's a crisis leaving Afghanistan as the only country systematically excluding girls from secondary education.

The satirical meme, which quickly gained over 8,000 likes and thousands of reposts, pokes fun at a real 2025 controversy over Biden's heavy use of the autopen device for signing executive orders, pardons, and more. A House Oversight Committee report found 88% of 1,597 analyzed documents had identical autopen signatures, with Republicans like James Comer alleging aides authorized them without Biden's direct approval. Trump pushed for a DOJ probe that was later dropped, while Biden insisted he approved every decision; the joke taps into ongoing partisan divides over his presidency.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

A funny image shows Joe Biden napping at the Resolute Desk while an autopen machine signs stacks of documents for him. Conservative commentator Gunther Eagleman posted it Thursday, captioning that the autopen deserves its own wing in Biden's future library.

Critics called it a vanity project amid economic pressures, while supporters viewed it as practical infrastructure to improve visitor access.

The cuts follow Monday's layoff of eight reporters and anchors, part of Nexstar Media Group's cost-saving consolidations amid industry pressures like cord-cutting.
