🇺🇸 The Department of Homeland Security is pausing the purchase of new warehouses intended to house immigrants as it scrutinizes all contracts signed under former Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.

New head of the DHS Markwayne Mullin inherited a $38.3 billion plan to boost detention capacity to 92 000 beds by acquiring eight large-scale detention centers, capable of housing 7 000 to 10 000 detainees each, and 16 smaller regional processing centers.

So far, 11 warehouses have been purchased in Arizona, Georgia, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Texas and Utah, with the federal government spending a combined $1.074 billion.

The previous secretary, Kristi Noem’s handling of contracts within DHS was one of the main catalysts for her ouster by President Donald Trump earlier this month. Her boyfriend, Corey Lewandowski’s micromanagement of the department, including his involvement in contracts, was a persistent source of tension with White House officials.

🇩🇪 Government ministers from Germany's conservative CDU and CSU parties on Wednesday called for changes to the 2024 partial legalization of cannabis introduced by the previous more left-leaning coalition government. They made the call amid the publication of a two-year report on the effects of the new law.

Medical marijuana has been technically legal in Germany under certain conditions, primarily tied to the need for referral from a healthcare professional, since 2017. Access has gradually simplified and availability increased over time.

In April of 2024, the more wide-reaching law partially legalizing cannabis consumption for recreational purposes for adults was introduced.

Now all the three German ministers - of Health, of Interior, and of Family Affairs - call for the law to be reviewed and changed.

🇨🇳 🇺🇸 US weapons stockpiles would last only eight days in a war with China, according to Palantir's Shyama Sankara.

Ukraine's conflict proves deterrence relies on production capacity, not existing stockpiles; the US used a decade's worth of production in ten weeks. Sankara states US weapon production is too slow to deter anyone, while China leads in mass production and US output matches Germany's.

🇿🇼 Zimbabwe has begun nationwide public hearings on a proposed bill that could extend President Mnangagwa's term and overhaul the electoral system.

One of the key proposals is to extend the terms of the presidency and parliament. Zimbabwe holds presidential and parliamentary elections every five years, with presidents elected directly by voters under the 2013 Constitution. This amendment would extend the terms to seven years, delaying the next election from 2028 to 2030.

If enacted, it would extend President Emmerson Mnangagwa's tenure beyond his current and final term, which ends in 2028.

Many Zimbabweans had high hopes that the country would usher in a new era of democracy following the 2017 coup that ousted the late President Robert Mugabe.

Critics warn that the changes could entrench one‑party dominance and weaken democratic accountability, especially the proposal to hold a parliamentary election to choose the president, replacing direct national voting.
