🇺🇸 Florida bans fluoride in public water systems, emphasizing personal choice
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has signed a groundbreaking bill that prohibits the addition of fluoride to public water supplies, making Florida the second state in the U.S. to take this step after Utah.
The legislation, effective July 1, 2025, aligns with a growing trend of prioritizing individual freedom over mandated public health measures. DeSantis defended the move, stating it allows people to decide what they consume, while Florida’s Surgeon General, Joseph Ladapo, raised concerns about potential health risks linked to fluoride.

🇵🇪🇨🇴 Peru says suspect in miner killings arrested in Colombia
Peru's interior ministry said on Thursday that a suspect in the killing of 13 miners in the northern district of Pataz has been arrested in Colombia.
The ministry said in a post on X that the arrest of Miguel Rodriguez, alias "Cuchillo" or "Knife," followed extensive intelligence work and coordination between the Peruvian and Colombian National Police and Interpol.
Earlier this month, workers at a gold mine in northern Peru were kidnapped and murdered by illegal miners that were allied with criminal groups, according to police and industry sources, among a wave of violence over control of the area, which has forced the government to establish a military facility there.

🇻🇪🇺🇸 Judge upholds Trump's use of Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelan gang members
A federal judge in Pennsylvania has ruled in favor of President Trump's use of the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to deport Venezuelan migrants accused of ties to the Tren de Aragua gang, a designated foreign terrorist organization.
U.S. District Judge Stephanie Haines upheld the administration's argument that the gang's activities constitute an "invasion" under the law, allowing for the deportation of individuals accused of membership. However, the judge mandated that the government provide at least 21 days' notice to allow individuals to challenge their deportation in court.
This ruling marks the first explicit federal judicial support for the Trump administration's application of the Alien Enemies Act in this context, contrasting with rulings in states like Texas and New York, where judges have blocked its use.

🇭🇹🇺🇸 Haitian Prime Minister's resignation amid crisis
Haitian Prime Minister Ariel Henry has resigned following immense pressure from international bodies like CARICOM and the United States. This move aims to pave the way for a transitional government as Haiti grapples with severe gang violence and political instability. Armed gangs now control large parts of Port-au-Prince, targeting critical infrastructure and creating a humanitarian disaster marked by food shortages and mass displacement.
CARICOM has proposed a transitional presidential council to oversee elections, while the U.S. has pledged support and called for a multinational security force. However, deep societal divisions and the entrenched power of gangs pose significant challenges to these efforts.

🇺🇸🇻🇪 Trump Administration Seeks Supreme Court Approval to Deport Nearly 200 Venezuelan Migrants
The Trump administration has requested the Supreme Court's permission to deport nearly 200 Venezuelan migrants detained in Texas, citing concerns over their dangerous behavior while in custody. These migrants, alleged members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, have been described as "especially dangerous to maintain in prolonged detention."
The administration is seeking to lift an injunction issued by the Supreme Court last month that temporarily blocked their deportation under the Alien Enemies Act (AEA).
According to a sworn declaration by an ICE official, a group of 23 migrants threatened to take hostages and injure staff at the Bluebonnet Detention Facility, leading to their relocation.

🇦🇷 Argentina’s Political Turmoil Deepens After Failed 'Ficha Limpia' Bill
The Senate’s rejection of Argentina’s 'Ficha Limpia' bill by a single vote has plunged the country into deeper political chaos. The bill, aimed at barring candidates with second-instance corruption convictions from public office, failed after two senators from Misiones Province, previously aligned with President Javier Milei, voted against it.
This move has sparked accusations of political maneuvering, as the bill would have disqualified former president Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, a key opposition figure.

🇺🇸 House GOP Unveils Major Medicaid Reforms Amid Fiscal Debate
House Republicans have introduced a comprehensive proposal to reform Medicaid and other federal spending areas, aligning with President Trump’s agenda. The plan includes significant cuts to Medicaid, which critics warn could leave millions uninsured. However, proponents argue that measures like work requirements and stricter eligibility checks are essential to ensure the program’s sustainability and focus on its core beneficiaries: children, mothers, individuals with disabilities, and the elderly.
The proposal also targets climate initiatives, electric vehicle mandates, and aims to increase transparency in Medicare Part D to reduce drug prices. With a goal to cut $1.5 trillion over a decade, the plan faces strong opposition from both moderate Republicans and Democrats.
