Judge drops third-degree murder charge against ex-officer who kneeled on George Floyd's neck
The third-degree murder charge against Derek Chauvin, the former Minneapolis police officer involved in George Floyd's death, has been dropped, but second-degree murder and manslaughter charges remain. Judge Peter Cahill ruled that the third-degree charge was not applicable as Chauvin's actions were not 'eminently dangerous' to others. Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison emphasized that the most serious charges against all four defendants, including Chauvin, will proceed to trial. The other three officers, Tou Thao, Thomas Lane, and J. Alexander Kueng, face charges of aiding and abetting second-degree murder.

Philippines-first policy is derailing America’s China strategy—Trump must act fast or watch ASEAN tilt to Beijing
The article discusses the implications of the Philippines' aggressive foreign policy on US-China strategy in Southeast Asia. It highlights the Philippines' actions that threaten to destabilize US alliances and strengthen China's influence in the region. The article urges the incoming Trump administration to recalibrate its approach to ensure that support for the Philippines aligns with countering China, rather than enabling Manila's divisive agenda. It also delves into a legal dispute involving the Sultanate of Sulu and Malaysia, which could further strain regional relations and impact US strategic interests.

Ending Somali-US money transfers will be devastating, Merchants Bank warned
The closure of accounts by the last US bank specializing in money transfers to Somalia, Merchants Bank of California, is expected to have a devastating impact on millions of Somalis who rely on remittances. Remittance payments, which significantly exceed aid spending, are crucial for Somalia's economy and survival. Regulatory pressures and concerns over money laundering and terrorism have led to the closure of many remittance accounts. Key figures, including Congressman Keith Ellison, warn of the catastrophic effects on humanitarian efforts. Organizations like Oxfam and Adeso urge the US government to implement emergency measures to mitigate the negative fallout. The potential closure of remittance services threatens the livelihoods of many Somalis, particularly in regions where aid is scarce.

Islamophobia prompts Muslims to engage in US democracy: report
American Muslims have experienced increased discrimination, prompting greater political engagement, as reported by the Institute for Social Policy and Understanding. Hate crimes against Muslims rose during and after Donald Trump's presidential campaign. The Islamophobia Index revealed Muslims are more politically active, with a higher voter registration rate and a record number of Muslim candidates running for office. Despite facing smear campaigns and threats, Muslim candidates are participating in elections across the US, with the potential for the first Muslim woman in Congress and the first Muslim senator. The ISPU survey also found that Muslims are more likely to reject violence and identify strongly with America, countering media and political narratives associating Islam with terrorism.
