 Atiku pledges scholarship to viral Niger teen miner Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar on Sunday said his “heart breaks” each time he watches a viral video of a teenage artisanal miner, Yusuf Aliyu, speaking at a mining site in Niger State after the deaths of 37 miners in the state. Atiku, in a statement posted on his X handle, said he was prepared to support the boy’s education, describing him as a child whose intelligence and confidence should be nurtured in a classroom rather than by working at a mining site. “I have watched Yusuf Aliyu’s video repeatedly, and each time, my heart breaks. A child with such intelligence, clarity and confidence should be in a classroom building his future—not struggling for survival in a community surrounded by gold but buried in poverty. “I cannot look at him and see an ‘illegal miner.’ I see a Nigerian child failed by the country that should have protected him. I see brilliance trapped by poverty and enormous promise abandoned by leadership,” ...

 American Bar Association criticizes Trump for attacks on Supreme Court 

   The American Bar Association on Monday criticized President Donald Trump for personally attacking Supreme Court justices, urging him to exercise restraint ahead of Tuesday night’s State of the Union address.

ABA President Michelle A. Behnke said Trump’s remarks, which targeted individual justices and questioned their impartiality, “cross a dangerous line that threatens the safety of the judiciary and our judicial process.” She emphasized that while vigorous policy debate is a cornerstone of democracy, rhetoric that demeans the courts undermines public confidence and judicial independence.

The criticism follows Trump’s public attacks last Friday on the six justices who ruled against his emergency tariff powers, singling out Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett—both of whom he appointed—as “fools and lapdogs for the RINOs and the radical left Democrats.” Trump also claimed the justices’ decisions were influenced by foreign powers, though he provided no evidence.

Behnke called such claims “wholly inappropriate” and warned that personal attacks and unfounded allegations against the justices risk eroding the rule of law. She urged critiques of judicial decisions to remain grounded in facts and the law, emphasizing that the Supreme Court’s independence is essential to the health of the constitutional system.

Trump also announced on social media that he would temporarily stop capitalizing “Supreme Court,” calling the ruling “ridiculous, dumb, and very internationally divisive.” Despite the tensions, Supreme Court justices may still attend the State of the Union, though attendance is voluntary and some have opted out in past years following conflicts with the executive branch.

The White House did not comment on the ABA’s statement.
