Lemon Arrest, ICE Under Fire, Epstein's Secrets Unravel

Journalist Don Lemon Indicted Amid Anti-ICE Protests

Former CNN host Don Lemon was indicted by the Trump administration for his coverage of a Minneapolis protest, according to Vox. The indictment came as anti-ICE protests erupted across the U.S., with demonstrators calling for boycotts of businesses perceived to cooperate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP), NPR News reported.

The protests, which included a demonstration in Washington D.C. targeting Target, demanded that retailers publicly oppose ICE and support investigations into recent protester deaths in Minneapolis, according to multiple news sources cited by NPR. The indictment of Lemon, who was fired from CNN in 2023, and Georgia Fort, also a journalist, marks a significant escalation in the Trump administration's treatment of the press, Vox noted.

Meanwhile, a partial government shutdown was expected to last longer than anticipated as House Democrats, led by Hakeem Jeffries, would not expedite the Senate-passed funding package, ABC News reported. The package included a two-week extension for Department of Homeland Security funding to allow for negotiations on Democratic demands regarding ICE restrictions. The House Rules Committee was set to review the package before a potential vote, with a final vote expected as late as Tuesday, according to multiple news sources cited by ABC News.

In other news, newly released U.S. government files on Jeffrey Epstein were causing international repercussions, including the resignation of a Slovakian official and renewed pressure on Prince Andrew to cooperate with U.S. investigators regarding his relationship with Epstein, Fortune reported. These developments stemmed from the Justice Department's release of millions of pages of documents, videos, and images detailing Epstein's interactions with prominent figures in politics, business, and philanthropy after his conviction for sex crimes, according to multiple news sources cited by Fortune.

In New York City, Mayor Zohran Mamdani appointed Stanley Richards, a former inmate convicted of robbery in the 1980s, as the new commissioner of the Department of Correction, Fox News reported. Richards, who served time on Rikers Island, would be the first formerly incarcerated person to hold the position, signaling a shift towards a rehabilitation-focused approach to incarceration, according to multiple news sources.

A cup of coffee for depression treatment has better results than microdosing

Synthesizing information from multiple news sources, a recent Australian biopharma study by MindBio Therapeutics challenges the widely reported benefits of microdosing LSD for depression, finding that a placebo outperformed the psychedelic in treating major depressive disorder over an eight-week trial. This contradicts earlier anecdotal reports that touted microdosing as a solution for increased focus, energy, and mood enhancement.
