White House calls out local media for portraying illegal immigrant as 'innocent'
Washington DC: White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on Sunday (local time) slammed a media report alleging that the US federal law enforcement agents had arrested an innocent 'moped driver' in Washington DC. Leavitt alleged that the media house did not confirm the report with the White House before publishing, and stated that the individual referred to in the report was an illegal immigrant with a suspected affiliation with a gang. In a post on X, she said, " Politico Playbook today was written to fear DC residents into believing federal law enforcement randomly arrested an innocent "moped driver." If Politico had reached out to the White House for comment before publishing, we could have provided them with the facts: The "moped driver" was an Illegal Alien Criminal from Venezuela with suspected gang affiliation and an active final order of removal from the country. Upon his arrest, the Illegal Alien Criminal resisted arrest and a law enforcement officer suffered a concussion as a result." The report by Politico alleged that the masked agents whose vests read simply "police", refused to reveal their identity and took the driver away without explaining him or the onlookers the reason behind the same. Meanwhile, US Attorney General Pamela Bondi said that there have been 300 arrests in Washington DC. "Over 300 arrests in D.C. -- and counting: Just last night, our federal and DC law enforcement partners made 68 arrests and seized 15 illegal firearms. Homicide suspects, drug traffickers, and more are being charged. I'll continue to stand with you as we make DC safe again!" Us President Donald Trump in a post on Truth Social criticised Democrats, claiming they "want crime" in the cities under their control. "These people are sick! They even want CRIME IN D.C., and other BLUE Cities throughout our Country, but don't worry, I won't let that happen. Just like our now secure Southern Border (ZERO illegals in last 3 months!), our cities will be Secure and Safe, and D.C. will lead the way!" he stated.

US: Melania Trump threatens Hunter Biden with $1 billion defamation suit over Epstein claims
Washington, DC: First lady Melania Trump has put former US President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, "on notice," threatening to sue him for over $1 billion for claiming that Jeffrey Epstein introduced her to Donald Trump, Fox News reported. Melania's attorney, Alejandro Brito, demanded that Hunter "immediately retract the false, defamatory, disparaging, and inflammatory statements" he made about the first lady in an interview earlier this month on the YouTube show "Channel 5 with Andrew Callaghan." In the video, titled "Hunter Biden Returns," Biden claimed, "Jeffrey Epstein introduced Melania, and that's how Melania and the first lady and the President met," adding, "The connections are, like, so wide and deep." According to Fox News, Brito sent a letter to Hunter Biden and his lawyer, Abbe Lowell, on August 6, giving him an ultimatum: remove the content, issue a public apology, and retract the statements, or face a potential USD1 billion defamation lawsuit. "Failure to comply will leave Mrs. Trump with no choice but to pursue any and all legal rights and remedies available to her to recover the overwhelming financial and reputational harm that you have caused her to suffer," Brito wrote. "These false, disparaging, defamatory, and inflammatory statements are extremely salacious and have been widely disseminated throughout various digital mediums," Brito wrote. "Indeed, the video has since been re-published by various media outlets, journalists, and political commentators with millions of social media followers that have disseminated the false and defamatory statements therein to tens of millions of people worldwide." "Consequently, you have caused Mrs. Trump to suffer overwhelming financial and reputational harm," Brito added.
