 Texas man arrested with 75 pounds of marijuana in luggage while flying to London, police say A Texas man was arrested at Miami International Airport after authorities found 75 pounds of marijuana in his luggage before he could board a flight to London. Harrison O’Neill Tiernan, 23, from Austin, was charged with cannabis trafficking. He was traveling to Heathrow Airport and had checked two suitcases for his British Airways flight. Inspectors discovered 65 vacuum-sealed packages containing a green, leafy substance later confirmed to be marijuana. U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers stopped Tiernan while he attempted to board the flight, and he acknowledged that the bags were his.

 US Court Rejects Request by 14 States to Limit DOGE’s Powers


A Federal Court in Washington, D.C., has dismissed a request by 14 states seeking to impose restrictions on the U.S. Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), The Hill reported on Wednesday.


The lawsuit, filed on February 13, 2024, targeted President Donald Trump and DOGE head Elon Musk, alleging that the agency wielded excessive power in violation of the U.S. Constitution. The states argued that Musk was not formally appointed by the president nor confirmed by the Senate, thereby breaching Article 2 of the Constitution.


However, U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan, in her ruling, acknowledged concerns over DOGE’s broad authority and lack of Senate oversight but stated that the court could not impose restrictions without “clear evidence of imminent, irreparable harm” caused by the agency.


The ruling follows DOGE’s claim that it has saved American taxpayers $55 billion in less than a month.


Meanwhile, in February, New York Attorney General Letitia James criticized DOGE’s access to government information, calling it “unlawful, unprecedented, and unacceptable.”


Shortly after taking office, Trump signed an executive order renaming the U.S. Digital Service—originally created during Barack Obama’s presidency—as the U.S. DOGE Service. Musk was appointed to lead the agency, with a focus on cutting costs and restructuring federal agencies.
