 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.

 Trump names Airbnb co-founder as first head of government design

President Trump this week appointed Airbnb co-founder Joe Gebbia as the U.S.’s first chief design officer, part of an initiative to modernize the federal government’s design standards and make public services “usable and beautiful.”

Gebbia, who joined the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) earlier this year and serves on Tesla’s board, said his goal is to create government services that are “as satisfying to use as the Apple Store: beautifully designed, great user experience, run on modern software.” He will lead the newly established National Design Studio, tasked with improving digital services across federal agencies. The studio, created by Trump’s Thursday executive order, will advise agencies on standardizing design, reducing duplication, and enhancing public trust. Gebbia will report to White House chief of staff Susie Wiles and help recruit creative talent, coordinate with agencies, and develop innovative solutions. Agencies are expected to implement the “America by Design” initiative, with initial results due by July 4, 2026, and the studio is set to close in three years. Gebbia thanked the administration for supporting the initiative, pledging to make the U.S. “the most beautiful, and usable, country in the digital world.”
