FBI - 3 Most Wanted Since 20 Jan, Judea & Samaria, DOE Shutdown, Hedge Funds Not Tariffs
FBI Dir Patel: FBI Has Arrested Three Most Wanted Fugitives Since 20 Jan
In a Tuesday night post on social platform X, Kash said it is "not an accident" the bureau nabbed its third fugitive on the "Ten Most Wanted" list since Jan. 20.
The FBI director framed the arrest as the result of a collaboration between his agency and the Justice Department, led by Attorney General Pam Bondi.
"I can now confirm that last night, working with the Justice Department and other interagency partners, the FBI has extradited one of our 'Ten Most Wanted' from Mexico — one we believe to be a key senior leader of MS-13, Francisco Javier Roman-Bardales," Patel said in a statement posted on X.
Israeli Security Council Moves Mean “West Bank” Will Soon Be “Judea & Samaria”
The security cabinet approves a decision to split off 13 so-called “neighborhoods” of existing West Bank settlements from their “mother settlements,” thereby turning them into 13 independent settlements.
Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, who advanced the security cabinet’s decision in his additional role as minister in the Defense Ministry, describes the move as an important step to the path of “de facto [Israeli] sovereignty” over the West Bank and replacing the fictitious name with its Biblical name Judea & Samaria.
Rep. Tim Walberg, R-Mich: “DOE Shutdown Won't Hurt Schools”
Rep. Tim Walberg, R-Mich., chairman of the House Education and Workforce Committee, said on Newsmax that efforts to dismantle the Education Department won't disrupt classroom funding or learning but aim to eliminate a costly and ineffective federal bureaucracy.
While appearing on "Saturday Agenda," Walberg added that fears about cuts to educational services are caused by left-wing propaganda.
"A lot of people right now are concerned. They're hearing all sorts of reports that kids will not have dollars for education, teachers won't be resourced, states won't be able to carry on," Walberg said. "It's absolutely false."
Market Pearl-Clutching Was Caused By Hedge Fund Re-Investments Not President Trump’s Tariff Policies
According to a team led by Nikolaos Panigritzoglou, the $5.5 trillion S&P 500 correction was most likely driven by two types of investment firms adjusting their positions rather than investor concern about a potential recession.
“In our mind, the most likely culprits are equity hedge funds and in particular two categories: equity quant hedge funds and equity TMT sector hedge funds.”
Quant hedge funds typically use data and code to make investment decisions, while TMT sector hedge funds primarily invest in firms related to technology, media and telecommunications.
JPMorgan says it is within the realm of possibility that the S&P 500 is close to carving a local bottom.
