C'est la question que se pose la presse nord-américaine après que Donald Trump a suspendu, pour un mois, son projet d'imposition de droits de douane au Canada et au Mexique. « Qu'est-ce que Donald Trump cherche à obtenir du Canada et du Mexique ? », s'interroge The New York Times. Selon le journal, le président américain a toujours assumé son intention « d'utiliser les tarifs douaniers comme un levier économique contre les pays qui refusent de céder à ses exigences ». Pourtant, il reste flou sur la nature exacte de ces exigences — une stratégie qui lui permet de revendiquer une victoire à tout moment.Donald Trump affirme vouloir stopper les flux migratoires à la frontière et limiter l'exportation de Fentanyl. Mais, comme le souligne The New York Times, « il n'a fixé que des critères vagues pour mesurer la coopération de ces deux pays ». Difficile, donc, d'évaluer l'impact réel des concessions obtenues : côté canadien, la création d'une force spéciale conjointe contre le crime organisé et le blanchiment d'argent ; côté mexicain, le déploiement de 10 000 membres de la Garde nationale pour renforcer le contrôle aux frontières. Le démantèlement de l'agence de développement USAIDSon site officiel reste fermé. Officiellement, le secrétaire d'État Marco Rubio a pris la direction de l'agence, mais son avenir demeure incertain. Dans les colonnes du Washington Post, le sénateur démocrate Chris Coons plaide pour son maintien : « Notre aide internationale nous permet de nous faire des alliés, de renforcer notre leadership et de neutraliser les menaces à distance. Les programmes de l'agence jouent un rôle clé dans la lutte contre les pandémies et le terrorisme. » Et il conclut : « USAID n'est pas une agence parfaite. Si l'administration Trump souhaite discuter de réformes, je suis prêt à en parler. Mais ce qu'elle fait actuellement n'est pas une réforme, c'est une destruction. Et ce sont les Américains qui en paieront le prix. » Le Salvador propose d'accueillir des prisonniers détenus aux États-UnisC'est à la une de La Prensa Gráfica. Le président salvadorien Nayib Bukele a annoncé hier (3 février 2025) qu'il accepterait l'expulsion vers son pays de migrants en situation irrégulière ayant commis des crimes graves aux États-Unis. Il a également proposé d'accueillir dans ses prisons des criminels américains actuellement incarcérés aux États-Unis.Mais El Faro s'interroge : le Salvador a-t-il les capacités d'absorber un afflux massif de détenus ? Nayib Bukele assure que chaque prisonnier accueilli fera l'objet d'une compensation financière versée par Washington, ce qui garantirait la viabilité du système carcéral salvadorien.Sur ce point, CNN rappelle que le département d'État américain met en garde les voyageurs contre les conditions de détention difficiles au Salvador, où les prisonniers n'auraient pas toujours accès à une procédure régulière.La grande question est de savoir si le Salvador est prêt à recevoir un flux plus important d'expulsions, non seulement de Salvadoriens sans papiers détenus sur le territoire américain, mais aussi de demandeurs d'asile. En 2024, les États-Unis étaient le pays qui comptait le plus grand nombre de demandes d'asile au monde, selon les données des Nations unies, avec plus de 3,1 millions de demandeurs d'asile. Parmi eux, 115 460 demandes émanaient de Salvadoriens, ce qui place les États-Unis au quatrième rang des pays d'Amérique centrale en termes de nombre de demandeurs d'asile, après le Nicaragua, le Honduras et le Guatemala.Trois spécialistes consultés par El Faro doutent de la capacité du pays à accueillir davantage de personnes. Les plus pessimistes affirment qu'il n'y a pas de conditions sociales ou économiques pour absorber plus de personnes, entre autres parce que la pauvreté a augmenté de 22,8 % en 2019 à 27,2 % en 2023, selon l'enquête sur les ménages et les usages multiples. Cela signifie que 21,1 % de la population ne dispose pas d'un revenu suffisant pour acheter un panier alimentaire de base élargi.Bukele a ensuite confirmé l'accord avec Rubio sur X, en déclarant dans un message : « Nous sommes prêts à n'accueillir que des criminels condamnés (y compris des citoyens américains condamnés) dans notre méga-prison (CECOT) en échange d'une redevance ».Le Centre de Confinement du Terrorisme du Salvador, communément appelé CECOT, est la plus grande et la plus récente des prisons du pays, avec une capacité maximale de 40 000 détenus.« La redevance serait relativement faible pour les États-Unis, mais importante pour nous, ce qui rendrait l'ensemble de notre système pénitentiaire viable », a-t-il ajouté.M. Bukele a été crédité d'avoir considérablement réduit la violence des gangs dans ce pays d'Amérique centrale depuis le lancement d'une vaste campagne de répression en 2022, qui a vu l'incarcération de plus de 81 000 personnes. Mais si le taux de criminalité du pays a baissé, le traitement des personnes emprisonnées a suscité l'indignation des organisations de défense des droits de l'homme, qui qualifient les prisons salvadoriennes d'inhumaines.Les conseils aux voyageurs du département d'État pour le Salvador avertissent également que les personnes emprisonnées dans le pays sont soumises à des conditions de détention « difficiles » et n'ont pas accès à une procédure régulière. Washington ignore Haïti, mais la crise s'invite à Santo DomingoLe secrétaire d'État américain entame une visite en République dominicaine sans escale prévue en Haïti, une décision qui suscite des réactions vives, nous apprend Gotson Pierre, le directeur d'Alterpresse, lors de notre interview hebdomadaire. Pour certains observateurs, cette absence traduit une volonté de privilégier la sécurité dominicaine face au chaos haïtien. Le secrétaire d'État Marco Rubio, notamment, s'inquiète des risques de débordement de la crise haïtienne vers le territoire voisin. Pendant ce temps, les discussions entre Washington et Santo Domingo pourraient inclure Haïti sans les Haïtiens, ce qui alimente les inquiétudes, dit-il.La situation demeure critique en Haïti, où la capitale a encore tourné au ralenti, paralysée par la peur. Des rumeurs d'attaques circulant sur les réseaux sociaux ont entraîné la fermeture de plusieurs écoles et une réduction des transports publics. À Delmas, au nord-est de Port-au-Prince, des barricades enflammées ont perturbé la circulation. Les violences persistantes ont contraint près de 1 700 personnes à fuir leurs foyers dans certaines zones particulièrement touchées, comme Cité Soleil.Hier encore, les gangs ont attaqué la commune de Kenscoff, à l'est de la capitale, malgré la présence des forces de l'ordre. Des maisons, des véhicules et des motos ont été incendiés, tandis que policiers et militaires tentaient de repousser les assaillants. Selon des témoins, le bilan humain s'alourdit, avec plusieurs dizaines de morts et de nombreux otages. Entre insécurité grandissante et absence de réponse internationale concrète, Haïti semble de plus en plus abandonnée à son sort, constate Gotson Pierre. Au Pérou, les étudiants se mobilisent pour la biodiversitéLe Pérou est l'un des pays les plus riches au monde en biodiversité : 1 800 espèces d'oiseaux, 4 000 de papillons et plus d'une centaine de reptiles différents. Pourtant, la préservation de ces animaux et des écosystèmes exceptionnels du pays n'est pas une priorité pour les dirigeants. L'économie souterraine menace cette richesse, au point que des étudiants en droit ont décidé de se mobiliser juridiquement pour protéger l'environnement. C'est un reportage de Martin Chabal.

Kennedy, Jr., and Tulsi Gabbard—Trump's Fanatic Four nominees to head the Departments of Justice, Defense, Health and Human Services, and the national intelligence directorate. They discuss:* Why Hegseth's personal mediocrity (C-list Fox News host) and depraved sexual conduct (pretty awful), combined with the complexity of running an organization as vast as DOD, might make him the worst of the four picks. * But also why they're all really bad and it's hard to say who's the worst!* How career civil servants should respond (or not) when confronted with corrupt or abusive orders.Then, behind the paywall, a longer discussion of why Trump has picked scandal-plagued individuals for these roles, and how Democrats in Congress can and should exploit their liabilities. Why are prominent Democrats like Cory Booker, Chris Coons, and Jared Polis setting the tone by kissing up to RFK Jr? Does Hakeem Jeffries really believe that Trump's potential cabinet officials are distractions, not worth commenting on? Is the best we can “hope” for that these people shamble their way into crises that leave the administration discredited?All that, plus the full Politix archive are available to paid subscribers—just upgrade your subscription and pipe full episodes directly to your favorite podcast app via your own private feed.

This Day in Legal History: First Televised TrialOn October 25, 1988, New York marked a significant moment in legal and media history by televising its first-ever courtroom trial—the highly publicized murder case of Joel Steinberg. Steinberg, a disbarred attorney, was accused of the brutal abuse and subsequent death of six-year-old Lisa Steinberg, his illegally adopted daughter. Public outrage and media interest were intense, and the televised trial offered viewers unprecedented access to courtroom dynamics, evidence presentation, and witness testimony. This coverage came as part of an experimental initiative in New York, designed to gauge whether the public's right to access the legal process through television could coexist with the fairness and decorum of courtroom proceedings. The trial captivated audiences and sparked debates over the benefits and pitfalls of televised trials. Advocates argued that broadcasting trials promoted transparency and public understanding of the judicial system. Opponents, however, voiced concerns that television could disrupt proceedings, influence witness behavior, and introduce bias by swaying public opinion. Steinberg's trial ultimately led to his conviction for manslaughter, though the broader implications of the experiment reached far beyond this single case. The success of this experiment paved the way for the launch of Court TV in July 1991, which would go on to cover high-profile cases like those of O.J. Simpson and the Menendez brothers, changing public engagement with the legal system. This development marked a shift toward greater media access in courtrooms across the United States, though the debate over its impacts continues today. The Steinberg case remains a key moment in the intersection of law and media, shaping how future generations would come to witness and understand legal proceedings through their screens.Hollywood studios frequently use California's anti-SLAPP law to counter idea theft lawsuits, claiming free speech protections to halt proceedings and requiring plaintiffs to demonstrate their case has merit early on. The anti-SLAPP statute was originally designed to protect individuals from strategic lawsuits stifling public participation, but it now often benefits large corporations in creative disputes. Once defendants claim free speech protections, plaintiffs face restrictions on discovery, potential delays from appeals, and the risk of paying hefty legal fees for defendants if the motion is successful. Recent court decisions, like Musero v. Creative Artists Agency and Norman v. Ross, have strengthened the effectiveness of anti-SLAPP motions in these cases, making it challenging for creators to bring successful suits. While the Ninth Circuit previously allowed some idea theft claims to proceed in federal court (e.g., Jordan-Benel v. Universal), California state courts have since diverged, making such claims nearly impossible to win in state court. This split between federal and state interpretations creates additional uncertainty for plaintiffs. Attorneys now approach idea theft claims cautiously, noting the costs, time, and complexities due to anti-SLAPP law. Even with valid claims, plaintiffs may struggle against the heavy evidentiary burden, and fewer lawyers are willing to take on such cases in California's current legal landscape.Hollywood Studios Use Free Speech Law to Beat Idea Theft SuitsA bipartisan bill that would provide tax relief for U.S. citizens held hostage abroad is stalled in Congress. The Senate bill, introduced by Senator Chris Coons, seeks to delay tax filing deadlines and waive penalties for detained individuals and their spouses. Supporters argue that wrongful detainees should not face IRS penalties for missed deadlines due to captivity, and inaction would leave affected Americans liable for accumulating penalties. This issue has gained urgency following recent hostage situations, including Americans held in Gaza and other countries.The Senate bill's path forward is complicated by a disagreement over legislative procedure. The Senate agreed to pass the bill without a separate vote if the House sent over an identical version. However, the House Ways and Means Committee chose to advance a different bill, introduced by Rep. Claudia Tenney, which merges tax penalty relief with changes to the process for revoking tax-exempt status for groups linked to terrorism. House Republicans believe the merged bill improves the original, but this approach risks delaying or blocking the legislation entirely, as the Senate is less likely to approve the modified version. If the House does not pass the original Senate bill, the legislation will likely be delayed until the next Congressional term.Relief for Hostages Facing IRS Penalties Bogs Down in CongressLos Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon announced he would recommend parole for Erik and Lyle Menendez, who have served nearly 35 years in prison for the 1989 murder of their parents. Gascon cited new evidence supporting claims that the brothers endured years of sexual abuse by their father, Jose Menendez, which could have influenced the jury's decision had it been available during their trials. Convicted in a high-profile second trial in the 1990s, the brothers argued self-defense, but prosecutors claimed they killed their parents for financial gain.Gascon now believes the brothers, ages 21 and 18 at the time of the murders, have “paid their debt to society,” though he emphasized the severity of their crime and noted opposition within his office. He also acknowledged a recent letter from Erik Menendez describing abuse months before the murders, as well as allegations against Jose Menendez from a former member of the pop band Menudo, raising questions about abuse patterns.The decision to expedite the case follows renewed public interest, driven by a Netflix dramatization and an upcoming court hearing scheduled for November 26. Gascon, facing re-election, denied that political motivations influenced his decision, highlighting his broader efforts to address “over-incarceration” in similar cases. Some Menendez family members support the brothers' release, while Gascon reiterated his office's evolving stance on complex issues of sexual abuse and violence.Menendez Brothers to Get DA Recommendation for Resentencing (1)Prosecutor recommends parole for Menendez brothers in 1989 murder of parents | ReutersThe owners of the cargo ship Dali have agreed to pay the U.S. government $102 million after the vessel collided with Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge in March 2024, causing its collapse and resulting in six fatalities. The Justice Department had filed a $103 million lawsuit against Grace Ocean Private Limited and Synergy Marine Private Limited, both based in Singapore, to recover federal costs for cleanup and debris removal needed to reopen the Port of Baltimore. This operation required over 1,500 responders and substantial resources, with reopening delayed until June.The Dali had reportedly experienced electrical failures leading up to the crash, prompting both a National Transportation Safety Board inquiry and an FBI investigation. Additionally, Maryland state officials are seeking separate compensation from the companies, estimating $1.7 billion to $1.9 billion to rebuild the bridge by 2028. Funds recovered for bridge reconstruction are expected to reduce costs borne by taxpayers.Cargo-ship owner to pay US $102 million over Baltimore bridge collapse, DOJ says | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Johann Strauss II.This week's closing theme features the lively elegance of Johann Strauss II with the first movement of his Wiener Klänge im Walzertakt mit Johann Strauss, a piece that captures the unmistakable joy and sophistication of the Viennese waltz. Known as the “Waltz King,” Johann Strauss II was a composer and conductor who, more than anyone, popularized and refined the waltz into an art form beloved worldwide. Born into a musical family in 1825, he inherited his father's musical gifts and keen understanding of public taste, quickly building on his father's legacy to establish himself as a central figure in Austrian music.Strauss's music became synonymous with the grandeur and charm of 19th-century Vienna. His waltzes, like the famous Blue Danube and Tales from the Vienna Woods, offered audiences sweeping, melodic expressions of life's joyful moments and turned the city into a cultural hotspot. Wiener Klänge, or "Viennese Sounds," presents a selection of these celebrated waltzes, celebrating not only the beauty of the dance but also the rhythmic elegance that Strauss brought to the genre. The piece combines energetic and graceful passages that bring the sparkle of a Viennese ballroom to life.Strauss was known for infusing his compositions with light-hearted elegance and rhythmic sophistication, evoking the sway and energy of couples gliding across a ballroom floor. His work on Wiener Klänge draws listeners into this vibrant world, where each waltz embodies both the simplicity and complexity that made his music timeless. To this day, his works continue to charm audiences worldwide, cementing his legacy as one of Austria's most beloved composers. Ending with Wiener Klänge is a nod to his infectious rhythm and intricate harmonies that encapsulate Vienna's musical heritage—an uplifting conclusion to our week.Without further ado, Wiener Klänge im Walzertakt mit Johann Strauss first movement, enjoy.

Michigan is also getting massive personal attention from the national campaigns, with candidates and surrogates making campaign visits on an almost daily basis. Republicans are hoping concerns over electric vehicles will put them over the top in Michigan, with both JD Vance and Mike Rogers calling for reneging on a federal promise of $500-million for upgrading Lansing's General Motors downtown assembly plant.
