Three news stories in the U.S. aren't being discussed nearly enough. One of those stories is about Tom Homan, the border czar (or more properly, the head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement), being the subject of a 2024 FBI sting operation. What was he accused of doing, and why did the U.S. Department of Justice quietly drop the case this month? Plus: we're diving back into the curious case of Jeffrey Epstein and attacks on free speech in the United States. As always, we deliver the news in under 15 minutes!
