Trump issues pardon to former Republican congressman Stephen Buyer after insider trading conviction    President Donald Trump has issued a full pardon to former Republican congressman Stephen Buyer, who served nearly two years in prison after being convicted of insider trading tied to post-congressional consulting work. Buyer was sentenced in 2023 to 22 months in prison for illegal stock trades made while working as a consultant and lobbyist. He was ordered to forfeit more than $350,000 in ill-gotten gains and pay a $10,000 fine. He was released from custody in 2025 after his conviction was upheld, with the Supreme Court declining to take up his appeal earlier this year. In issuing the pardon, Trump described Buyer’s service as a judge advocate general in the U.S. Army and his time in Congress as “distinguished and highly productive.” The pardon, dated Thursday and released by the White House on Friday, grants Buyer “a full, complete, and unconditional pardon.” Buyer has maint...

 Family of Colombian fisherman killed in US boat strike alleges murder in complaint

The family of Colombian fisherman Alejandro Carranza, who was killed in a U.S. military boat strike in September, has filed a formal complaint with the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights alleging that the U.S. government unlawfully killed him. The petition, submitted Tuesday, claims Carranza was killed in the Caribbean on Sept. 15.

According to the filing, Carranza’s lawyer, Dan Kovalik, stated the family “has no recourse to adequate and effective remedies in Colombia to obtain redress for the injuries they have suffered due to the actions of the United States.” The petition also accused U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth of ordering the strike despite not knowing the identities of those on the targeted boats. While the commission can investigate and issue findings, any ruling would not be legally binding on the U.S. government.

Colombian President Gustavo Petro has publicly condemned the strike, saying Carranza “had no ties to the drug trade and his daily activity was fishing” and calling the U.S. actions a violation of Colombia’s sovereignty. U.S. officials said three people were killed in the Sept. 15 strike. At the time, President Donald Trump defended the operation, claiming the targeted boat was smuggling drugs from Venezuela and Colombia and noting the discovery of narcotics in the water after the strike.

Since September, Trump and Hegseth have authorized more than 20 military strikes against suspected drug boats in the Caribbean Sea and eastern Pacific Ocean. The campaign, which the administration claims targets drug trafficking, has killed over 80 people. Hegseth maintains that the operations are legal and asserts the military has evidence of illicit cargo on the boats.

Some members of Congress from both parties have questioned whether the strikes were constitutional and whether they might violate the laws of war. Reports indicate that survivors of an initial Sept. 2 strike were killed in a follow-up attack, raising concerns that war crimes may have occurred. Hegseth has defended the strikes, stating he saw the first attack unfold but was not present for the subsequent action, which was ordered by an admiral he said made the “right call.”
