Comme promis pendant sa campagne, le président Donald Trump a mis fin au statut de protection temporaire, le TPS, pour les Honduriens et les Nicaraguayens vivant aux États-Unis. Les autorités honduriennes, elles, se préparent déjà depuis le mois de janvier 2025 à accueillir et prendre en charge les migrants expulsés. Un reportage de Alice Campaignolle. Toutes les semaines, des migrants expulsés des États-Unis débarquent à l'aéroport de San Pedro Sula, dans le nord du Honduras. Dès leur arrivée, ils sont pris en charge par un centre d'accueil, dirigé par la sœur Idalina Borguignon. Un parcours bien rodé les attend : café, nourriture, examens médicaux, soutien psychologique, démarches administratives. Beaucoup témoignent de la peur et des mauvais traitements subis aux États-Unis, où, selon eux, « le rêve américain est terminé » depuis l'arrivée de Donald Trump. Parmi eux, Jerry, expulsé après deux tentatives de passage par la frontière, espérait retrouver son jeune fils soigné aux États-Unis. Il renonce temporairement à repartir et prévoit de se réinstaller dans son pays. Mais une fois revenus, ces Honduriens doivent repartir de zéro dans un pays où les opportunités restent rares et la violence omniprésente. Certains enfants de retour ne parlent même plus espagnol. Le profil des expulsés a aussi évolué : il s'agit désormais majoritairement de personnes établies de longue date aux États-Unis. Haïti se prépare aussi au retour des migrants en provenance des Etats-Unis C'est à la Une de l'agence Alterpresse et nous en parlons avec son directeur Gotson Pierre : Le ministère de la Justice haïtien a adopté un « protocole pour le traitement des dossiers des Haïtiens déportés ou extradés pour crimes financiers ou liens avec des groupes criminels ou terroristes ». Cette mesure « répond aux nouvelles décisions des autorités américaines visant l'arrestation et l'expulsion de ressortissants haïtiens impliqués dans ce type de délits ». Une manière de montrer, précise Gotson Pierre, que le gouvernement haïtien est prêt à coopérer pleinement avec les autorités américaines dans le domaine des expulsions. Autre sujet à la Une d'Alterpresse : l'enquête sur l'assassinat du président Jovenel Moïse, tué le 7 juillet 2021, est-elle en train de s'enliser dans une impasse judiciaire ? Plus d'une semaine après la fin des auditions en appel des accusés, tous les regards se tournent vers la cour d'appel de Port-au-Prince, dont la décision est désormais très attendue, selon le site d'information. Ce verdict pourrait représenter un tournant dans ce dossier aussi sensible que complexe. Mais les lenteurs de la procédure, les retards accumulés et certaines absences-clés nourrissent la crainte d'un nouveau blocage judiciaire. Colombie : Un verdict historique qui pourrait influencer la campagne présidentielle L'ancien président Álvaro Uribe a été reconnu coupable d'avoir tenté de faire pression sur un témoin, pour éviter d'être associé aux milices d'extrême droite. Le journal El Espectador parle d'un verdict historique et salue le travail de la justice. Il faut désormais, écrit-il, reconnaître la légitimité du jugement et rejeter fermement les voix qui, sans fondement, cherchent à le présenter comme une persécution politique. Le quotidien reconnaît que ce procès a suscité des passions. Juger une figure politique aussi influente qu'Álvaro Uribe entraîne inévitablement des lectures biaisées, selon les appartenances politiques. Mais rien, selon El Espectador, ne permet de conclure que la juge ait agi en dehors du droit. En tout cas, à moins d'un an de la prochaine présidentielle, ce jugement aura forcément un impact politique. D'après El Heraldo, il est indéniable que cette sentence contre le chef naturel du parti conservateur Centre démocratique, le leader de droite le plus influent des dernières décennies, va bouleverser les rapports de force de la campagne électorale. Selon le journal, les positions des uns et des autres risquent de se radicaliser. On continuera à parler de persécution judiciaire, de politisation de la justice ou encore de judiciarisation de la politique, ce qui risque d'alimenter encore davantage la polarisation et la mobilisation sociale. Pour le journal El Tiempo, la droite pourrait exploiter le rejet du verdict et l'impopularité de l'actuel président de gauche Gustavo Petro pour tenter de regagner du terrain. Mais l'incertitude demeure : Álvaro Uribe va-t-il se retirer de la vie politique ou au contraire intensifier son activité en vue de 2026 ? Le Brésil tente d'éviter des surtaxes commerciales Pour le gouvernement brésilien, c'est une course contre la montre pour tenter d'éviter la hausse des droits de douane décidée par le président américain Donald Trump. 50% supplémentaires à partir du 1er août 2025, donc vendredi prochain. Brasilia est en négociation intense avec les autorités américaines, selon Folha de São Paulo. Objectif, selon Carta Capital : exclure de cette surtaxe certains produits stratégiques, comme les aliments ou les avions afin d'atténuer les impacts d'une mesure qui pourrait toucher de plein fouet les secteurs industriels et agroalimentaires. Mais le problème, c'est que Washington refuse de négocier avec Brasilia, alors même qu'il vient de conclure une série d'accords avec l'Union européenne ou le Japon. Donald Trump reste inflexible. Et impose comme condition — jugée inacceptable et absurde par Folha de Sao Paulo — l'abandon du procès contre Jair Bolsonaro, l'ancien président, poursuivi pour tentative de coup d'État contre les institutions démocratiques. Au Mexique, de plus en plus de corps mutilés retrouvés dans les rivières du Chiapas C'est un reportage à lire dans El País. Dans le sud du Mexique, Walter González, un pêcheur de 54 ans, est devenu malgré lui un sauveteur informel de cadavres. Depuis sept ans, il repêche les corps abandonnés dans les rivières du Chiapas, à la frontière avec le Guatemala. Ces dernières semaines, il a été témoin d'une recrudescence de violence extrême liée au crime organisé. Des corps ligotés, mutilés, parfois sans tête, refont surface dans les rivières Suchiate et Cahoacán. Face à l'inaction ou à l'indifférence des autorités, Walter et ses compagnons enterrent parfois eux-mêmes les restes humains, par respect pour les victimes. Cette vague de violence intervient alors que les autorités locales se félicitent des progrès en matière de sécurité. Mais en réalité, les affrontements entre groupes criminels, pour le contrôle du trafic de migrants et des extorsions, ont fortement augmenté depuis mai dernier. Journal de la 1ère En Martinique, le taux de l'octroi de la mer va augmenter.

Our resident constitutional expert Bruce Fein joins to make the case for impeaching the Supreme Court AND the President, and what we—as citizens—can do to make it happen. Then we welcome Lori Wallach of Rethink Trade to evaluate Trump's tariff policy. Are these trade deals bringing manufacturing back to the US? Or is Trump just using tariffs as a cudgel to punish countries that annoy him?Bruce Fein is a Constitutional scholar and an expert on international law. Mr. Fein was Associate Deputy Attorney General under Ronald Reagan and he is the author of Constitutional Peril: The Life and Death Struggle for Our Constitution and Democracy, and American Empire: Before the Fall.This has real consequences for you people all over the country because one of their shadow docket decisions (without explanation or hearing) briefs just very recently said that Trump can fire all these people in the IRS or the Education Department or EPA and get away with it. And, in fact, paralyze the workings of his (statutorily-established-by-Congress) Cabinet Secretary and Department…So this is devastating to your health, economic safety, environment, workplace safety, education, all kinds of things that are being ridden into the ground.Ralph NaderIn my judgment, the court has basically abandoned its role as a check on executive power…It's actually become an appendage of the executive branch. Nothing placing any kind of serious or material handcuff on what the President can do on his own. And the President is taking full advantage of that.Bruce FeinLori Wallach is a 30-year veteran of international and U.S. congressional trade battles— starting with the 1990s fights over NAFTA and WTO when she founded the “Global Trade Watch” group at Public Citizen. She is now the director of the Rethink Trade program at the American Economic Liberties Project, and a Senior Advisor to the Citizens Trade Campaign.What these guys are doing [with Trump's tariff policy] it's basically trying to build a house with just a hammer—we are against saws; we are against screwdrivers; we do not actually believe in nails, no other tools; we will just hammer a bunch of wood. And as a result, we're going to make some noise and we're definitely going to break some things, but we're not actually building a new redistributed trade system—which we could.Lori WallachBest that we can tell, the dynamic is something like: Trump is so engaged in the fun and chaos—fun (from his perspective) and chaos of throwing tariff news around like a lightning bolt that he really is not taking advice about it from people who know how you could use tariffs to try and ostensibly achieve the things he promised. He's just enjoying throwing around tariffs.Lori WallachNews 7/18/25* Last week, Elon Musk's pet AI program – Grok – began identifying itself as “MechaHitler,” and spitting out intricate rape threats and sexual fantasies directed at individuals like liberal pundit Will Stancil and now-ex X CEO Linda Yaccarino. This week, Musk rolled out Grok's new “sexy mode” which includes a visual avatar feature depicting the artificial entity as a quasi-pornographic anime-esque character who can flirt with users, per the Standard. So, naturally, the Trump Defense Department awarded xAI, the parent company behind Grok, a $200 million contract. According to CNN, “The contracts will enable the DoD to develop agentic AI workflows and use them to address critical national security challenges.” It is unclear how exactly the entity calling itself MechaHitler will accomplish that.* In local news, a special election was held in Washington DC's Ward 8 this week, seeking to replace corrupt councilmember Trayon White. White was implicated in an FBI bribery investigation and was expelled from the council in February. Yet, because of the splintered opposition, White pulled out a narrow victory on Wednesday, winning with 29.7% of the vote compared to his opponents' 24.3%, 23.7% and 22.3% respectively, per WTOP. In 2024, DC Voters approved a ballot measure to implement ranked-choice voting, which could have helped prevent this outcome, but it has yet to take effect. The DC Council could vote to expel White again more or less immediately; if not, they would likely wait for his trial to commence in January 2026.* Turning to foreign affairs, Israel has bombed the Syrian capital of Damascus, killing three and wounding 34, in strikes primarily targeting the Syrian Defense Ministry headquarters, per NPR. Israel's attack comes amid tensions between the new, post-Assad Syrian government and the Druze minority in the Southern Syrian city of Sweida. The government claims the Druze violated a ceasefire reached earlier in the week and Syrian troops responded; a new ceasefire deal has been reached and the office of interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa issued a statement reading, the “rights [of the citizens of Sweida] will always be protected and…we will not allow any party to tamper with their security or stability.” Stéphane Dujarric, spokesman for United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres, said in a statement that the U.N. chief “condemns Israel's escalatory airstrikes,” as well as reports of the Israeli military's redeployment of forces in the Golan Heights. As journalist Séamus Malekafzali notes, “Damascus is now the 4th Middle Eastern capital to be bombed by Israel in the past 6 weeks, alongside Tehran, Beirut, and Sana'a.”* In more news from Israel, the Knesset this week sought to expel Palestinian lawmaker Ayman Odeh, leader of the Hadash-Ta'al party. According to Haaretz, “The vote was triggered by a Likud lawmaker after Odeh published a social media post in January, saying that he ‘rejoices' over the release of Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners.” However, the motion failed to reach the 90-vote threshold, meaning Odeh will remain in the legislature. Six members of Yair Lapid's Yesh Atid party voted for the motion, but not Lapid himself. The United Torah Judaism party did not back the motion. Haaretz quotes Hassan Jabareen, an attorney, director of the Adalah Legal Center and legal counsel for Odeh, who said, “The overwhelming support for this initiative – from both the coalition and the opposition – reveals the state's intent to crush Palestinian political representation...This was not a legitimate legal process, but rather a racist, fascist incitement campaign aimed at punishing Odeh for his principled stance against occupation, oppression and Israeli violence.” Senator Bernie Sanders celebrated the failure of the motion, writing “Israel's far right tried to expel Ayman Odeh, an Arab Israeli opposition leader, from the Knesset because of his opposition to Netanyahu's war. Today, they failed. If Israel is going to be considered a democracy, it cannot expel members of parliament for their political views.” This from the Middle East Eye.* Sanders also made news this week by declaring that “Given the illegal and immoral war being waged against the Palestinian people by Netanyahu, NO Democrat should accept money from AIPAC – an organization that also helped deliver the presidency to Donald Trump,” per the Jerusalem Post. Sanders posted this statement in response to a video by Obama foreign policy advisor Ben Rhodes, who said “AIPAC is part of the constellation of forces that have delivered this country into the hands of Donald Trump…These are the wrong people to have under your tent...The kind of people that they are supporting, Bibi Netanyahu and Donald Trump, I don't want my leaders and my political party cozying up to these people.” Bernie's statement is perhaps the strongest stand taken by any American politician against AIPAC, Israel's front group in American politics and one of the biggest special interest groups in the country. AIPAC throws around eye-popping sums of money to members of both parties; to name just one example, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries has accepted over $1.6 million from the group, according to Track AIPAC's Hall of Shame.* In a similar vein, last week we discussed the National Education Association's vote to suspend its ties with the Anti-Defamation League due to the ADL's shift in focus from Jewish civil rights to laundering the reputation of Israel. Since then, the ADL has sought to mobilize their allies to demand the NEA reject the vote. To this end, the ADL has sought the support of J Street, a liberal Jewish group critical of Israel, per the Forward. J Street however has rebuffed the ADL, refusing to sign the group's letter. Though they oppose the NEA resolution, J Street President Jeremy Ben-Ami issued a statement reading in part, “charges of antisemitism must not be wielded to quash legitimate criticism of Israeli policy...the NEA vote can[not] be dismissed as being driven by fringe ‘pro-Hamas' antisemitic activists.” Hopefully, more Jewish groups will follow the example of J Street and break with the Zionist orthodoxy of the ADL.* In other foreign policy news, the Guardian reports French President Macron has reached a deal with the leadership of the French “overseas territory” New Caledonia to grant the island statehood and more autonomy within the French legal system. New Caledonia is one of several UN-designated ‘non-self-governing territories.' France has exerted rule over the Pacific Island – over 10,000 miles from Paris – and its nearly 300,000 inhabitants since the 19th century. Last May, riots broke out over France's decision to grant voting rights to thousands of non-indigenous residents. This violence “claimed the lives of 14 people, [and] is estimated to have cost the territory…$2.3 bn... shaving 10% off its gross domestic product.” However, the Times reports indigenous Kanak independence activists reject the deal outright. Brenda Wanabo-Ipeze, a leader of the Co-ordination Cell for Actions on the Ground, who is currently detained in France, said, “This text was signed without us. It does not bind us.” The Times adds that, “The conservative and hard-right French opposition accused Macron of failing to ensure security in the territory. The left accused the president of imposing colonial tactics on a people who should be allowed self-determination.” It remains to be seen whether this deal will prove durable enough to weather criticism from so many angles.* Much has been made of Attorney General Pam Bondi's decision last week to not release any more information related to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. A Department of Justice memo reads, “it is the determination of the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation that no further disclosure would be appropriate or warranted.” This has created a firestorm in the MAGA world, with many Trump supporters feeling betrayed as the president implied he would declassify these files if reelected. Now, Congressmen Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna have introduced the Epstein Files Transparency Act which would “force the House of Representatives to vote on the complete release of the government's files related to Jeffrey Epstein,” according to a press release from Massie's office. This resolution specifically states the files cannot “be withheld, delayed, or redacted” should they cause “embarrassment, reputational harm, or political sensitivity, including to any government official, public figure, or foreign dignitary.” The resolution is attracting support from some Republicans, but it is unclear how far this will go under Speaker Johnson, who maintains there is “no daylight between his position and that of Trump,” per the Hill. The position of congressional Republicans has been further complicated by a bombshell report in the Wall Street Journal documenting previously unknown details of the intimate relationship between the late pedophile financier and the president.* Meanwhile, the Trump administration is once again torching America's reputation abroad – this time literally. The Atlantic reports “Five months into its unprecedented dismantling of foreign-aid programs, the Trump administration has given the order to incinerate food instead of sending it to people abroad who need it. Nearly 500 metric tons of emergency food—enough to feed about 1.5 million children for a week—are set to expire tomorrow, according to current and former government employees with direct knowledge of the rations. Within weeks…the food, meant for children in Afghanistan and Pakistan, will be ash.” This cartoonishly evil decision paired with the “Big Beautiful Bill”'s provisions cutting food assistance for children in poverty, point to one inescapable conclusion: the Trump administration wants children to starve.* Finally, on the opposite end of the spectrum, Mexico News Daily reports the administration of President Claudia Sheinbaum is debuting a healthy, domestically produced and affordable staple for Mexican consumers – chocolate bars. “This ‘Chocolate de Bienestar' is part of the government's ‘Food for Well-Being' strategy, which aims to bring nutritious and affordable food options to consumers while supporting national producers, particularly those in the southern states of Tabasco and Chiapas — a region that has historically lagged behind other regions in several social and economic indicators.” The Sheinbaum administration is stressing the health benefits of chocolate, noting that, “Studies have shown that chocolate improves cardiovascular health via its antioxidants, provides energy, helps control blood pressure, improves cognitive capacity, satisfies hunger and lifts mood.” At the same time, the administration is seeking to minimize the sugar content “striking a supposedly healthier balance between natural cane sugar and the cacao itself.” This chocolate will be available in three forms:“Chocolate bar containing 50% cacao, and priced at…less than $1.Powdered chocolate with 30% cocoa, priced...$2Chocolate de mesa or tablet chocolate, with 35% cacao, priced at …$5”This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Today, we're speaking with Matt Bowles, a longtime Palestinian human rights activist.With a Master's Degree in International Peace and Conflict Resolution, Matt has over two decades of human rights and activism experience. He led activist delegations to monitor human rights abuses in the north of Ireland, co-founded an organization to stop U.S. aid to Israel, organized solidarity delegations to the West Bank and Gaza Strip, and did solidarity work with the indigenous Zapatista communities in Chiapas, Mexico.In the past few years, many more people around the world have tuned in to the injustice that has been happening in Palestine for the past 75 years. If you want to understand the origins of this injustice AND what you can do to help stop it, this episode is for you. I first became immersed in the struggle for Palestinian liberation in 2017, when I visited the West Bank and saw the Israeli soldiers at checkpoints, the humiliation of people, the treatment of Arabs like second-class citizens, and the Israeli system of apartheid with my own eyes. Matt has been working on Palestinian solidarity since 1998. It has been so helpful to hear the perspective of someone with this much longer view on the struggle.
