Pueblo Rescue Mission employee who allegedly stole thousands heading to trial
(PUEBLO, Colo.) — The suspect who allegedly stole thousands from residents of the Pueblo Rescue Mission (PRM) is heading to trial after rejecting a plea agreement. Former PRM employee, 65-year-old Lori Arabie, allegedly stole large sums of money, between $10,000 and $20,000 of residents' cash. According to previous arrest papers, Arabie was allegedly the only one with access to a safe in her office, where residents stored their cash onsite. PREVIOUS COVERAGE: Rescue Mission employee allegedly stole up to $20,000 from residents According to arrest documents, the intake documents that residents sign at PRM require them to save 30% of their income, which comes from jobs, disability payments, Social Security, and other sources. The residents were supposed to give the money to Arabie, who would then save it in the safe. According to an affidavit, Arabie stated in an email to another coworker that she had lied and attempted to blame the theft on her son. In the same email, she also alleged that a resident staying at the Mission had stolen the money. An arrest warrant was issued for Arabie in December for felony charges. The day after Christmas, she surrendered to police in Pueblo and was booked into the Pueblo County Jail. According to the 10th Judicial District Attorney, a plea agreement was rejected on May 30, and Aravie is now set for a jury trial to begin on November 3 at 1:30 p.m. Arabie's next court appearance is on June 23.

By combining excision surgery with The PRM Protocol™, he aims to desensitize hyperactive pain receptors and provide long-term symptom relief.

OMCs failing to keep 20-day stock to face penalties
The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (Ogra) has decided to impose penalties and in some cases suspend licences of oil marketing companies (OMCs) over failure to maintain 20-day oil stocks and lift the required petroleum products from refineries. The refineries will also face Ogra's action if they produce less-than-committed volumes for three consecutive months. In a letter to the leading OMCs, Ogra said it has observed that numerous OMCs were not adhering to their commitments made during the product review meeting (PRM) regarding the lifting of stocks from local refineries. "This failure to comply with the PRM directives is not only adversely impacting Ogra's oil supply chain management but is also damaging energy security and causing substantial revenue losses due to imports, which is tantamount to violation of the authority's directions," the regulator said, adding that after careful consideration and thorough deliberation, it made the decision that the OMCs which fail to lift local products vis-a-vis their commitment/ allocation in the PRM from refineries, fail to maintain 20 days of stock and the refineries which produce less-than-committed products for three consecutive months, would be placed before the authority for consideration of suspension of their marketing licence. The regulatory authority, during its meeting held on May 29, 2025, reviewed serious contraventions related to stock maintenance and product procurement. After deliberation, it approved immediate imposition of penalties by the department concerned under Rule 69 of the Pakistan Oil (Refining, Blending, Transportation, Storage and Marketing) Rules, 2016. As per Rule 37, the OMCs that failed to maintain the mandatory 20-day stock cover in March 2025 shall be penalised based on the shortfall in the average stock days. The OMCs which maintained less than five days of stocks will face a penalty of Rs10 million, for five or less than 10 days of stocks, the penalty will be Rs7.5 million, for 10 or less than 15 days of stocks, the penalty will be Rs5 million and for 15 or less than 20 days of stocks, the penalty will be Rs1 million. The regulator will also slap penalties on the OMCs that lifted insufficient products from the refineries. It will impose a penalty on the refineries that failed to supply allocated products to the OMCs and even those refineries will face action that produced less than the quantity committed in the PRM during March 2025. The OMCs which had more than 10% and less than 25% shortfall in lifting petroleum products from the refineries will face a Rs1 million penalty, in case of more than 25% and less than 50% shortfall, the penalty will be Rs5 million, in case of more than 50% shortfall, the penalty will be Rs7.5 million and those which had a shortfall of more than 75% in supplies from the refineries will face a Rs10 million penalty. For April 2025, the regulator directed the department concerned to issue show-cause notices to the relevant OMCs and refineries by May 30, 2025. A response period of seven working days from the date of issuance was granted. The authority further advised that show-cause notices for May 2025 be issued by June 20, 2025. Future enforcement measures Ogra has decided that any OMC failing to lift local products in relation to its PRM commitment or maintain a 20-day stock cover, and any refinery under-producing against its commitment for three consecutive months, will be subject to the possible suspension of their marketing licence. The enforcement department has been instructed to issue this directive to all the entities concerned. The authority has told the enforcement department (legal) to finalise the draft of "Petroleum Products Review Meeting Regulations, 2025" in consultation with the relevant departments. The draft will be submitted to the stakeholders for feedback, who will be allowed a period of seven working days to provide their comments.

State department ramps up Trump anti-immigration agenda with new ‘remigration' office
The state department is seeking to create an 'Office of Remigration' as part of a restructuring of the US diplomatic service to facilitate Donald Trump's rightwing anti-immigration policies. The plan would in effect repurpose the Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM), which sought to manage and facilitate the flow of people into the US under previous administrations, into a bureau meant to help deport immigrants from the country. A congressional notification from the state department obtained by the Guardian said the office would be involved in 'repatriation tracking', would 'actively facilitate' the 'voluntary return of migrants' to other countries, and would work with the Department of Homeland Security and other law enforcement to 'advance the president's immigration agenda'. 'Reflecting core administration priorities, these offices will be substantially reorganized to shift focus towards supporting the administration's efforts to return illegal aliens to their country of origin or legal status,' the document read. The overhaul is part of a broader restructuring of the state department under its secretary, Marco Rubio, to create a 'more agile department, better equipped to promote America's interests and keep Americans safe across the world'. Under the plan, which was submitted to Congress this week, the state department would eliminate or consolidate more than 300 offices and bureaus, leading to the firing, or 'reduction in force', of more than 3,400 employees. The firings would not target members of consular affairs or law enforcement and other key roles of state. The administration this week ordered US embassies to stop scheduling appointments for student visas in connection with plans to expand social media vetting of applicants. The supreme court on Friday allowed Trump to revoke the legal status of more than 500,000 people from countries including Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela under a programme meant to protect them from economic and political turmoil in their home countries. The charge against migration has been led by Stephen Miller, the combative aide to the president who has railed against programmes that allow migrants and refugees into the country. Related: How remigration became a buzzword for global far right Remigration has become a buzzword for the global far right, with European nationalist movements such as Alternative für Deutschland brushing off allegations of racism to promote flashy ad campaigns depicting mass deportations of migrants. Donald Trump embraced the term in September, saying he would 'immediately end the migrant invasion of America' and, referring to his presidential rival in last year's election, 'return Kamala's illegal migrants to their home countries (also known as remigration)'. The PRM has been a conservative target under the Trump administration because of its role in resettling immigrants to the US and in distributing grants to groups they say promote migration. In an article last September for the American Conservative, Phillip Linderman, the chair of the conservative Ben Franklin Fellowship, said it was 'past time for a complete overhaul of State's PRM bureau'. Members of BFF have occupied prominent roles in the state department under Rubio, pointing to a conservative vision for remaking US diplomacy and its apparatus. 'It is remarkable how many well-informed conservative foreign policy strategists have never even heard of PRM,' wrote Linderman. 'Even those who closely follow immigration and border issues rarely understand the role PRM plays in accommodating and promoting the worldwide movement of illegal migrants.' Several people at PRM told the Guardian after Trump's election that they expected it could be shut down entirely. Instead, Rubio's plan would reassign diplomats who work in the agency's Office of Western Hemisphere Affairs and Office of International Migration to staff the new Office of Remigration.
