<h2>South Korean President warns of ‘discouraging investment’</h2>The South Korean authorities have alleged abuses during the raid and have said they will “thoroughly investigate any potential human rights violations or other issues”. According to reports, the ignorant ICE agents used racial slurs, “Rocket Man” against detainees, thinking them to be North Korean. According to reports from South Korean media Yonhap, when the detainees asked the agents what they had done wrong, the agents responded that they didn't know. They were chained up with metal chains at the waist and hand for nine hours while the raid was going on in the $4.3 billion factory jointly owned by the South Korean companies LG Energy Solution and Hyundai Motor Group. During the detention, they were not provided any basic supplies for days and had mouldy beds, inedible food, and no blankets. There were no windows or clocks, and it was very cold.Also Read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/diamonds-daria-i-noor-bangladesh-vault-1757651980488">Kohinoor's long-lost sister Daria-i-noor diamond to reappear in Bangladesh in a 117-year-old vault</a>It took nearly four days for all of them to be processed. &nbsp;Detainees also said that they were forced by officials from the Korean consulate to sign a voluntary departure form, which termed them as illegal aliens.

'Sick enough to celebrate his death': Why people are losing their jobs, facing doxxing over social media posts about Charlie Kirk

Charlie Kirk, a well-known conservative commentator and close ally of US President Donald Trump, was tragically killed in a shooting at a Utah college event on Wednesday (September 10). Earlier this year, Kirk weighed in on the escalating military tensions between India and Pakistan, warning the United States against direct involvement in the conflict.&nbsp;In a May podcast titled, “What the Heck is Going on in India!”, Kirk discussed the heightened hostilities following the Pahalgam terror attack and India’s retaliatory Operation Sindoor, which targeted terrorist camps within Pakistan and Pakistan Occupied Kashmir. He described the two countries as being dangerously close to war. Kirk criticised Pakistan for harboring terrorists, calling it a “deceptive actor,” while pointing to the anger in India’s majority Hindu population following the attack. He referenced reports of air and missile strikes on multiple sites in Pakistan, resulting in casualties and aircraft losses on both sides. While acknowledging that both India and Pakistan are nuclear-armed nations, Kirk argued that the concept of mutually assured destruction would likely prevent any nuclear escalation.&nbsp;Also Read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/trending/charlie-kirk-killing-conspiracy-theories-flood-internet-epstein-letter-diversion-tactic-strange-how-they-didn-t-find-the-shooter-1757661072275">Charlie Kirk killing conspiracy theories flood internet: Epstein 'letter' diversion tactic? 'Strange how they didn't find the shooter'</a>&nbsp;Emphasising the United States’ role, Kirk said, “Maybe we slightly favour India because they are responding to Islamic terror, but that should only amount to moral support. This is not our war to fight — it is not a conflict we should get involved in.” Meanwhile, on Thursday (September 11), Trump announced that Kirk would be posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the country's highest civilian honour.&nbsp;&nbsp;Kirk, 31, was fatally shot while speaking at the Utah event on September 10. At a Pentagon ceremony, Trump praised Kirk as a powerful voice of his generation and an inspiration to many, particularly young people. “Charlie’s courage and message will continue to impact lives for years to come,” Trump said.&nbsp;Authorities reported that the gunman, believed to be college-aged, leapt from a rooftop and fled the scene immediately after the shooting. Utah Department of Public Safety Commissioner Beau Mason said law enforcement has images of the suspect and is confident in their ability to apprehend him. The FBI later confirmed recovery of the high-powered rifle used in the attack, found in a nearby wooded area. Special Agent Robert Bohls said the firearm is undergoing forensic testing. Investigators also found a footwear impression and a forearm mark at the scene, both of which are under analysis as part of the investigation.

In a May podcast titled, “What the Heck is Going on in India!”, Kirk discussed the heightened hostilities following the Pahalgam terror attack and India’s retaliatory Operation Sindoor, which targeted terrorist camps within Pakistan and Pakistan Occupied Kashmir. He described the two countries as being dangerously close to war. Kirk criticised Pakistan for harboring terrorists, calling it a “deceptive actor,” while pointing to the anger in India’s majority Hindu population following the attack. He referenced reports of air and missile strikes on multiple sites in Pakistan, resulting in casualties and aircraft losses on both sides. While acknowledging that both India and Pakistan are nuclear-armed nations, Kirk argued that the concept of mutually assured destruction would likely prevent any nuclear escalation.

'Strange how they didn't find the shooter' Emphasising the United States’ role, Kirk said, “Maybe we slightly favour India because they are responding to Islamic terror, but that should only amount to moral support. This is not our war to fight — it is not a conflict we should get involved in.” Meanwhile, on Thursday (September 11), Trump announced that Kirk would be posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the country's highest civilian honour. Kirk, 31, was fatally shot while speaking at the Utah event on September 10. At a Pentagon ceremony, Trump praised Kirk as a powerful voice of his generation and an inspiration to many, particularly young people. “Charlie’s courage and message will continue to impact lives for years to come,” Trump said. Authorities reported that the gunman, believed to be college-aged, leapt from a rooftop and fled the scene immediately after the shooting. Utah Department of Public Safety Commissioner Beau Mason said law enforcement has images of the suspect and is confident in their ability to apprehend him. The FBI later confirmed recovery of the high-powered rifle used in the attack, found in a nearby wooded area. Special Agent Robert Bohls said the firearm is undergoing forensic testing. Investigators also found a footwear impression and a forearm mark at the scene, both of which are under analysis as part of the investigation.

NASA presented proof of ancient life on Mars at a press conference on Wednesday (September 10), claiming a win not just for the space agency but also for President Donald Trump. Acting Administrator Sean Duffy, who is also the United States Secretary of Transportation, led the gathering of journalists to inform them how the Perseverance rover had collected a rock sample that contains proof of microbial life on the Red Planet billions of years ago. Duffy ensured to claim that the rover was launched during Trump's first tenure as president. Notably, the rover took off for space on July 30, 2020, the last year of Trump's presidency. This reference was not only made to make sure that Trump was credited with the discovery, but also aimed to dismiss claims that the Trump administration is not interested in pursuing space exploration. The president has been slammed for reducing NASA's budget, a move that caused an uproar among the scientific community.<h2>NASA budget cuts by Trump administration</h2>Donald Trump has substantially cut down on NASA's budget for the year 2026. On May 2, the Trump administration proposed cutting NASA funding by nearly 25 per cent, bringing it down from $24.8 billion to $18.8 billion. Most of this reduction will happen in the agency's science programs. According to The Planetary Society, a nonprofit exploration advocacy organisation, the 2026 budget would be the agency's lowest since 1961 when adjusted for inflation. Scientists have argued that this will affect the Artemis moon missions and the agency's next steps towards space exploration, including putting a man on Mars.

President Donald Trump clashed with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during a tense phone call on Tuesday (September 9), after learning of Israel’s strike on Hamas leaders in Qatar, The Wall Street Journal reported.According to US officials, Trump was angered that he had been blindsided by the operation, discovering it from the US military only as it was unfolding.

<h2>Trump shifts tone</h2>Just last week, Trump had criticised New Delhi, saying India had offered to cut tariffs on US goods to zero “too late” and should have lowered them years ago. The more positive message now comes after months of turbulent negotiations. Talks have often stalled, with India warning that Trump’s 50% tariffs on Indian exports could reduce the country’s GDP growth by half a percentage point this year. Trump doubled the duties on Indian imports after New Delhi refused to halt purchases of Russian oil, which Washington argues help fund Moscow’s war in Ukraine.<h2>The scale of trade ties</h2>Two-way goods trade between the US and India stood at $129 billion in 2024, with the US recording a $45.8 billion deficit, according to data from the US Census Bureau. Alongside trade, Washington will send a delegation on 17–18 September to discuss India’s concerns over the $3 billion purchase of six P8I anti-submarine warfare aircraft.The two sides are also expected to sign an agreement this month for 113 GE-404 aircraft engines to power India’s Tejas Mark I A fighter jets.

The White House on Tuesday (Sep 9) said it would "support" hiring a handwriting expert after Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released a letter to Jeffrey Epstein purportedly signed by President Donald Trump. "Sure, we would support that," press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters when asked about a professional review of the signature.

The White House on Tuesday (Sep 9) said it would "support" hiring a handwriting expert after Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released a letter to Jeffrey Epstein purportedly signed by President Donald Trump.

'Trump knew...': Why US allowed Israel's air strike on 'close ally Qatar'

US President Donald Trump on Monday (Sep 8) downplayed domestic violence as he went on a bizarre rant complaining about how offences by men against their wives were skewing his crime statistics. Speaking to faith leaders in Washington, the US president claimed that crime in the national capital was down to "virtually nothing" since he sent in the National Guard a month ago. Appearing annoyed, he followed up the claim by saying that, despite this, the crime statistics fail to show crime had reduced by 100 per cent, all because law enforcement continues to record what he referred to as "lesser things" like domestic matters.<h2>Trump said what?</h2>Addressing the White House Religious Liberties Commission at the Museum of the Bible, Trump claimed that crime in Washington was "virtually nothing" but that "much lesser things...that take place in the home" were skewing his statistics. "They say crime's down 87 per cent. I said: 'No, no, no, it's more than 87 per cent—it's virtually nothing.' And much lesser things, you know, things that take place in the home, they call crime," he said.&nbsp;Taking a dig at Democrats, he then claimed that the crime figures were because of people who will "do anything they can to find something". The controversial president then proceeded to flippantly comment, "If a man has a little fight with the wife, they say 'this was a crime, see?' So now I can’t claim 100 per cent."&nbsp;Watch what he said here:

<h2>People appalled by Trump's flippant comments on domestic violence</h2>As expected Trump's thoughtless remarks sparked a furious backlash on social media with netizens accusing the US president of callously dismissing an issue that affects about 12 million Americans every year.&nbsp;"I just can't fathom a decent man speaking at a religious event and thinking minimizing domestic abuse should be a talking point in his speech. I wish supporters would start saying 'hey man that's not cool' instead of always nodding along like this is normal or should be," wrote one user.&nbsp;"Oh sure, just a ‘little fight’. Tell that to the millions of survivors living with broken homes, trauma, and fear," glibbed another, adding "What a champion of law and order."&nbsp;A third user noted that Trump's flippant remark serve as a "confession," adding that "The casual ease with which he dismisses violence against women as a 'little fight' tells you everything you need to know about his character. It's a crystal-clear window into a mind that is simply incapable of seeing certain people as full human beings."&nbsp;Yet another user pointed out that in a 1989 deposition Trump's ex-wife Ivana Trump revealed under oath that the POTUS raped her during a violent encounter. "Angry over a painful scalp reduction surgery, Ivana claimed he assaulted her, pulling out clumps of her hair and forcing her into sex."

At a speech to faith leaders, US President Donald Trump downplayed domestic violence, complaining that "lesser things" like "a little fight with the wife" were skewing crime statistics. This, from a man who was once accused of marital rape by his ex-wife.

House Oversight Committee Democrats on Monday (September 8) released what they claim is a personal note from US President Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, included in a 2003 birthday tribute book. The page reportedly contains a short handwritten message, Trump’s signature, and a sketch of a curvaceous woman. The message refers to a “wonderful secret,” which Democrats say raises serious questions. In a post on X, the Oversight Democrats wrote: “We now have the birthday message Trump insisted never existed. He wrote about a ‘wonderful secret’ they shared. What is he hiding? Release the documents.” According to the committee, the alleged note reads: “A pal is a wonderful thing.

It’s time to end this cover-up.” The Trump camp responded almost immediately, rejecting the claim outright.

Back in July, when the Wall Street Journal first disclosed parts of the alleged note, Trump dismissed the story. “That’s not how I write, that’s not how I talk, and I don’t draw,” he said.

Tennis fans at the US Open men's final on Sunday (Sep 7) greeted US President Donald Trump with loud boos as he appeared at Arthur Ashe Stadium in Queens, forcing organisers to delay the start of the Carlos Alcaraz vs Jannik Sinner showdown due to heightened security. "As a result of the security measures in place, and to ensure that fans have additional time to get to their seats, we have pushed the start time of today’s match to 2:30 pm ET," said the US Open. Adding to the spectacle, Trump's right hand once again appeared caked in mismatched makeup, covering a lingering bruise - something that did not go unnoticed.<h2>Trump greeted by cheers and jeers</h2>Trump entered alongside Rolex CEO Jean-Frederic Dufour and members of his inner circle, including Jared Kushner, granddaughter Arabella, Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. Videos from the historic sporting event show as the crowd erupted with a mix of jeers and cheers when cameras cut to Trump saluting during the national anthem. The US President, as per reports, quickly retreated to his suite after the frosty welcome.
