Another Fighter Jet Mishap On The USS Harry S. Truman

More trouble for the USS Harry S. Truman aircraft carrier. An F/A-18 fighter jet landing on the Truman in the Red Sea went overboard, forcing its two pilots to eject. They were later rescued by a helicopter and suffered minor injuries. The incident marks the latest mishap to mar the deployment of the Truman. Last month, another fighter jet slipped off the hangar deck of the Truman. The F/A-18s cost about 60 million dollars apiece.

Federal Reserve Leaves Key Rate Unchanged

The Federal Reserve kept its key interest rate unchanged Wednesday, brushing off President Donald Trump’s demands to lower borrowing costs, and said that the risks of higher unemployment and higher inflation have risen. The Fed kept its rate at 4.3% for the third straight meeting, after cutting it three times in a row at the end of last year. Many economists and Wall Street investors still expect the Fed will reduce rates two or three times this year, but the sweeping tariffs imposed by Trump have injected a tremendous amount of uncertainty into the U.S. economy and the Fed’s policies.

‘Diddy’ Trial Jury selection expected to finish today

Conclave to elect new Pope starts today One hundred and thirty-three cardinals are sequestering themselves behind the Vatican's medieval walls for the start of a conclave Wednesday to elect a successor to Pope Francis. Cardinals have wrapped up their pre-conclave meetings with no clear frontrunner. They’re trying to identify someone who could make the 2,000-year-old Catholic Church credible and relevant today, especially to young people. The cardinals held their last day of pre-conclave meetings Tuesday morning during which Francis’ fisherman’s ring and his official seal were destroyed in one of the final formal rites of the transition to the 267th Pope. The process is guided by the Holy Spirit, and is designed to be free from outside interference. Taking no chances, the Vatican is asking cardinals to hand over their phones for the duration of the conclave and is deactivating cell phone coverage at the Vatican. It also plans to use signal jammers, in order to prevent surveillance and communication with the outside world. The electors cast paper ballots, and voting continues until one candidate receives a two-thirds majority, or 89 votes. After two rounds of voting, ballots are burned in a special stove — black smoke … signals no decision, while white smoke … means a new pope has been chosen. ‘Diddy’ Trial Jury selection expected to finish today Jury selection in the trafficking trial of hip-hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs is expected to wrap up today. Lawyers for the 55-year-old entertainer and prosecutors have worked for two days to assemble 35 individuals for a pool of 45 people from whom the jury will be picked. Combs has pleaded not guilty to an indictment charging him with leading a racketeering conspiracy that engaged in various crimes, including kidnapping, arson, bribery and sex trafficking. China launches a blitz of policies to help its economy China and the U.S. have announced plans for talks between Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng later this week in Geneva, Switzerland. China has cut interest rates and bank reserve requirements as part of a barrage of measures meant to counter the blow to its economy from U.S. President Donald Trump's trade war. People’s Bank of China Governor Pan Gongsheng said Wednesday that its lending rate to commercial banks would be reduced by 25 basis points to 1.5%. High tariffs imposed by Trump have begun to take a toll on China’s export-dependent economy, which was already under pressure from a prolonged downturn in real estate.
