WASHINGTON, DC – MAY 13: U.S. President Joe Biden

This follows the president meeting with senior officials and stakeholders… devising a plan as to how to collectively tackle the issue.

Port operators, truckers’ associations, labor unions and executives from large companies were all present at the talks.

The White House has pledged to make a “90-day sprint” to reduce bottlenecks… and some will start working 24/7.

Most significantly, the Port of Los Angeles will move to constant service.

White House chief of Staff Jen Psaki says the Biden administration is “using every tool at their disposal to ease the impact on the American people”.

The coronavirus pandemic has wreaked havoc on supply chains right around the world… with the vast network of ports, container vessels and trucking companies now badly congested.

The President also used his address to promote his bipartisan infrastructure bill… pushing congress to pass the legislation.

Biden says “in order to be globally competitive, America needs to improve its capacity to make things in America and that’s why he’s pushing for a an investment in infrastructure

Trump sends Kushner and Witkoff to Egypt for urgent hostage negotiations amid escalating Gaza violence and fragile peace talks.


President Trump has dispatched Jared Kushner and real estate magnate Steve Witkoff to Egypt in an urgent diplomatic effort to finalise a hostage release agreement. The move marks one of the most significant interventions since Trump’s re-emergence on the global stage, as violence continues to escalate in Gaza.

Both Hamas and Israel have cautiously endorsed the framework of Trump’s peace proposal, though sticking points remain over the terms of prisoner exchanges and territorial concessions. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has made clear that Israel will not agree to any conditions that undermine its national security or sovereignty.

On the ground, the humanitarian toll continues to rise, with mounting casualties in Gaza and widespread destruction. Civilians trapped in the conflict zones are pleading for relief and an end to the fighting as world powers scramble to broker a breakthrough.

In Short:
– Sean Combs sentenced to 50 months in prison for prostitution-related charges involving male escorts.
– Combs expressed remorse and plans to appeal the sentence, citing parental plea for leniency.
Sean “Diddy” Combs has been sentenced to over four years in prison following his conviction for prostitution-related charges.
The sentence of 50 months was handed down by U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian in Manhattan federal court. Combs, aged 55, was found guilty after a jury determined he arranged for male escorts to travel across state lines for drug-fueled sexual performances with his girlfriends.Banner

Combs faced a maximum of 20 years but was acquitted of more severe charges, including racketeering, that could have led to a life sentence.

The allegations included claims that he coerced his girlfriends into participating in these encounters through threats and violence. Combs, who has been incarcerated since his 2024 arrest, is expected to appeal.

Emotional Statements

During the sentencing, Combs expressed remorse and stated he had learned his lesson. He acknowledged past abuses but maintained that the performances were consensual. His legal team argued for a reduced sentence of 14 months, citing his prior time served, while prosecutors advocated for a more extended sentence, highlighting the seriousness of the abuse.

Combs’ children also spoke during the proceedings, requesting leniency from the judge, stating that he had improved since his arrest. They pleaded for their father’s presence in their lives, with his daughter emotionally addressing the court.

The case has drawn significant media attention, marking Combs as a prominent figure facing serious charges in the entertainment industry.
