Five things Trump and Putin may discuss in Alaska — and one they won't
President Trump's summit with President Putin in Alaska will be the first meeting between the Russian leader and an American counterpart since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. When Putin launched the invasion, he gave a speech claiming that Russia was 'seeking peace'. He blamed the war on Nato encroachment in eastern Europe and said Ukraine was 'a puppet of the West'. There is little sign his views have changed in the three and a half years since. Meanwhile, Trump returned to the White House in January promising to go down in history as a 'peacemaker'. He appears determined to win the Nobel peace prize but has played down the chances of a significant breakthrough at his meeting with Putin in Anchorage, instead suggesting a three-way summit attended by himself, Putin and President Zelensky is more likely to end the war.

Former NBA player asks Trump for pardon before prison
Former NBA star Sebastian Telfair has publicly asked for President Donald Trump to give him a pardon as he faces a few months of federal prison time. In 2023, Telfair (pictured) pled guilty to charges of fraud after he was found to be one of 18 former NBA players who defrauded the league's health and welfare benefit plan of about $4million. Speaking to TMZ, Telfair revealed that the court ordered him back because of 'me not having my paperwork together'. 'I'm mad, I'm mad, I don't wanna be doing no federal time or all that,' Telfair told the outlet. He continued: 'As far as the initial case, I believe this whole federal case is definitely some bull[expletive], no disrespect to the system. But this is NBA accounts. This is our own account. This is my money that, you know what I'm saying, I tampered with inside of my account. No, I should not end up in federal custody for tampered with our own NBA accounts. I feel like we all have been victims under this NBA situation. I earned that money that they said that I took out of my account. I physically worked, and you all watched me earn that money, and I now got to pay it back to the system. The money don't go back into my account. It goes back to the system. So that is just mind-blowing to me.' After adding that he's being treated 'super unfairly', Telfair then revealed that he has a three-year-old child at home he needs to take care of. With that in mind, Telfair made a plea to the Oval Office to ask for an intervention in his case. 'I know Donald Trump got some big things going on, Donald Trump might need to come holla and give ya boy a pardon, and so I could stay home with my babies, continue building my community,' Telfair told the outlet. Telfair was drafted 13th overall in the 2004 NBA Draft straight out of Abraham Lincoln High School in Brooklyn, New York and played in the league for over a decade.
