Mexico City mayor says police arrest 13 in connection with killings of her staffers

Brugada promised more details at a news conference scheduled for later Wednesday, but said three of those arrested allegedly were directly involved in the killings and the others allegedly had roles in the logistics.
Brugada's personal secretary, Ximena Guzmán, and an adviser, José Muñoz, were shot dead in Guzmán's car on a Mexico City street in broad daylight on May 20.

EPA deletes Biden-era scientific integrity policy

The Trump EPA has scrapped a scientific integrity policy released in the waning days of the Biden administration that aimed to limit political interference in the agency's science. The agency's website Thursday no longer included the Biden administration's revised scientific integrity policy that was released on Jan. 16 — four days before Trump's second inauguration. The Biden version was available on EPA's website as of late July, according to a screenshot taken from the Internet Archive. EPA is revoking its 2025 EPA scientific integrity policy and reinstating its 2012 policy, an EPA spokesperson said in an email Thursday in response to questions about the changes to the agency's website. Advertisement The move was made in response to an executive order President Donald Trump issued in May that directed agencies' scientific integrity to be governed by 'policies that existed within the executive branch on January 19, 2021,' the EPA spokesperson said.

EPA to reassess most chemical regs, Trump appointee says

EPA's highest ranking chemicals official signaled plans to reconsider most of the toxics control rules finalized under the Biden administration, after many of them were spared in the Trump administration's first deregulatory blitz. 'To meet our statutory obligations and to make sure that we're following the law, we're going to have to take another look at pretty much all the actions that were finalized by the last administration,' said Nancy Beck, principal deputy assistant administrator in the Office of Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention, during an American Home Furnishings Alliance conference Wednesday afternoon. Beck's sweeping comments aren't entirely surprising but offer some assurance for chemical manufacturers questioning their need to comply with the Toxic Substances Control Act rules in legal limbo.
