Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero, a 26-year-old man originally from
Colombia, was shot and killed on the morning of 13 July 2026 during a
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operation in Biddeford, Maine.
Senator Angus King said Guerrero was not the operation's target; his
wife and young daughter were at the scene, and the agents wore no body
cameras. It is at least the 11th fatal shooting involving ICE or Border
Patrol agents this administration; the FBI is expected to investigate.

Israel trucks out Gaza’s rubble to ‘hide genocide’ and ‘redraw the map’
The
Israeli military is carting away millions of tonnes of rubble –
including from cemeteries and known locations of human remains – in what
rights groups say is an effort to erase war crimes evidence.

Israel
is carrying out a massive, organised operation to crush, mix and
transport millions of tonnes of rubble out of the Gaza Strip, according
to human rights groups and monitors.
The Israeli military’s
systematic reshaping of the urban landscape comes against a backdrop of a
staggering human toll, with at least 73,387 Palestinians – mostly
children and women – killed since Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza began
in October 2023.
This removal of rubble could be an attempt at demographic engineering and erasing evidence of the genocide, the Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor has said, in a report entitled Gaza Rapid Damage and Needs Assessment.
Obliterating the truth
The
report estimates that there are approximately 68 million tonnes of
rubble across the Gaza Strip, much of the result of Israel’s ongoing
genocidal war on the enclave.
At least 10 million tonnes of rubble
have already been removed, crushed or moved from their original sites
within areas under Israel’s unlawful military control, which encompass
about two-thirds of the enclave.
About 400 heavy pieces of
excavation, crushing and transport machinery are also working to
demolish the remaining structures in Gaza.
Debris is being loaded
onto nearly 100 Israeli trucks daily, which are leaving the Gaza Strip
for undisclosed sites within Israel and the occupied West Bank.

Budour Hassan, a researcher at Amnesty
International, told Al Jazeera that this could be a calculated attempt
to destroy evidence of crimes committed by Israel during the war.
“The
bulldozing is an integral part of all attempts to destroy the lands in
Gaza City and in the Gaza Strip in general,” Hassan said.

“The real fears are that these operations are taking place with the aim of obliterating and hiding evidence.”
Preventing
access to evidence of crimes is a direct challenge to the International
Court of Justice, Hassan said. The ICJ is currently overseeing a
genocide case against Israel brought by South Africa and supported by
numerous other nations.
“The occupation systematically works to obliterate evidence and destroy the features of the crime,” she added.
Mohammed
Salha, director of the NGO Network in the Gaza Strip, believes the
debris being moved out of the enclave contains missile fragments,
ammunition, and personal belongings – crucial for future accountability.
“The occupation is moving the rubble, fragmenting it, and moving it into the Green Line to obliterate the evidence and facts,” Salha told Al Jazeera.
“Naturally,
there are thousands of martyrs under this rubble, and moving this
rubble with their remains means a deliberate destruction of the crime
scene that contains the basic evidence that exposes the occupation’s
commission of war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide.”
Urban engineering
The
mass removal of rubble could serve a distinct military and colonial
purpose. Euro-Med Monitor reported that the large-scale crushing and
removal of rubble destroys land boundaries, house foundations and street
networks, stripping Palestinians of the physical markers of ownership
and deepening ethnic cleansing in Gaza. This sets the stage for efforts
to re-establish Israeli settlements in Gaza.
Retired Brigadier
General Elias Hanna, a military and strategic expert, explained to Al
Jazeera how geography is being used against the population as an extreme
form of collective punishment.
“The building and the geographical area have become part of the battle and part of the weapon itself,” Hanna said.
“When
the Israeli enemy destroys and bulldozes, this bulldozing falls within
the policy of collective punishment; that is, you create a new urban
engineering and a new phase and a different shape for the social and
security environment to punish those who resist and punish the civilian
incubator at the same time,” Hanna said.
This strategy of urban
engineering aims to permanently alter the ecosystem of the enclave by
preventing the return of Palestinians to their homes and making the
destroyed areas in Gaza unliveable or unbuildable, Hanna added.
The daily tragedy
The
removal of ruins also means that the bodies of missing people,
estimated by Gaza’s civil defence in July 2026 to number about 8,500,
could be gone forever.
Using heavy machinery without prior
forensic surveys risks crushing or scattering these remains, severely
infringing on the rights of families to know the fate of their
relatives.
Abu Asim, a Palestinian citizen whose family members
remain buried in the eastern areas of the Gaza Strip, now designated as
behind a military “Yellow Line“, shared his agony with Al Jazeera.
“My
family’s story is that their body parts were scattered in the streets,
and some of them are still to this day under the rubble of the house,
and their remains have not been brought out,” he said.
“We lost
them, and the first tragedy was their martyrdom, and the second and
daily tragedy is the absence of these graves and the absence of the
evidence with which we will try this occupation for these crimes and
atrocities.”
Rescue efforts have been entirely paralysed in areas seized by the Israeli military.
Samir
al-Mana’ama, a lawyer with the Al Mezan Center for Human Rights, told
Al Jazeera that during the war, Israeli authorities seized an area of
approximately 70 percent of the eastern Gaza Strip.
“[The Israeli
military is] preventing the access of rescue crews to recover the bodies
of the martyrs, and it is also tampering with the rubble areas and
moving them from one place to another, which leads to a clear and
explicit violation of the provisions of international humanitarian law
and international human rights law,” al-Mana’ama told Al Jazeera.
Raed al-Dahshan, the director of civil defence in Gaza, highlighted the impossibility of their mission.
“In
the available areas where we move now, things are very difficult and
complex,” he told Al Jazeera. “So how about the situation if the matter
requires coordination to enter the areas located inside the Yellow Line,
which requires special equipment, coordination, and securing … the
nature of our work there.”
(Al Jazeera)
Even
known resting places of the dead have not been spared, Salha said, with
historical burial sites included in this campaign of erasure.
“Reports
and human rights documentation state that the occupation completely or
partially destroyed more than 93 percent of the cemeteries in the Gaza
Strip,” Salha said. “Neither stone, nor human beings, nor even the dead
in their graves have been spared from the occupation.”
Ethics experts and Democrats express alarm as Trump uses office to grow his personal fortune to ‘unprecedented’ level
Donald Trump’s use of his second presidency to grow his personal fortune has alarmed legal and ethics experts and congressional Democrats as he has reaped an
“unprecedented” $2.2bn in 2025 revenues by amassing big cryptocurrency
holdings, benefiting from wealthy foreign interests, expanding his Truth
Social business and more, while federal oversight of his actions has
waned.
Trump last year raked in at least
$1.4bn from his crypto ventures according to financial disclosure forms
he filed in June. Simultaneously, about one million investors in a Trump
crypto scheme suffered almost $3.8bn in losses as their volatile crypto holdings tanked in value.
Monetizing his presidency further this summer, Trump’s Truth Social media businessis
pushing a new scheme that offers wealthy buyers special early access to
his posts for a fee of $100,000 a month, which top Democrats and public
interest groups say pose serious conflict of interest and corruption
issues.
Mark Warner, the Democratic senator of Virginia, in July wrote to six major
Wall Street financial trade groups urging them to reject a new Truth
Social product, dubbed Truth API, that would enrich Trump by giving big
investors early looks at Trump’s postings. Warner’s letter urged that
they “not legitimize an arrangement that sells privileged access to
market-moving presidential communications, especially for the
president’s personal financial benefit”.
On
another monetization front, critics raised red flags about how Trump
tapped his justice department to forge a potentially lucrative and
sketchy deal to settle a $10bn lawsuit by Trump against the IRS about a
leak of his tax returns that gives him and his family immunity from IRS
audits of prior tax returns and could save him $100m.
Likewise
some analysts are troubled by how Trump has circumvented the
constitution’s prohibition on foreign emoluments by accepting a $400m
plane as a gift from Qatar, and how other wealthy foreigners have backed
some Trump family hotel and golf deals abroad.
Beyond
his personal enrichment, Trump’s monetizing his office and
transactional governing style has proved lucrative to his sons, some top
advisers, billionaire buddies, big donors and other allies, say
critics.
Former
federal officials, historians and other experts have raised
“corruption” concerns and other red flags as Trump has monetized his
presidency for personal gain in ways that far exceed any other
president’s tenure.
“Trump has figured out a
way to monetize the presidency, political power and public policy in
ways no other president has achieved,” Princeton historian Julian
Zelizer told the Guardian. “In the first term, he created the thinnest
of firewalls between his business and policy. In the second term, he
didn’t put up any firewall and smashed all guardrails that existed.
“The
precedent is dangerous in general, as we are moving to a virtually
unregulated era where there will be unending opportunities for
corruption.”
Former election officials concur that Trump is cashing in on his presidency to an unprecedented level.
“Trump
has openly rejected restraints on presidential conflicts of interests
and is using the powers of the presidency, both real and imagined, to
financially benefit his and his family’s business interests on an
unprecedented level,” said Larry Noble, a former general counsel at the
Federal Election Commission who now teaches law at American University.
“In just the first year of this term, he reported his business holdings
earned over $2bn.”
Noble added: “While Trump’s
second term is less than half over, it already looks like the most
openly corrupt administration in our history.
“Whether
you’re a foreign country, a company or an individual who wants the
government to approve a business deal, stop an investigation or just be a
friend when you need a favor, the message is that this is a pay to play
administration.”
Other legal experts offer equally strong critiques.
“I
think the biggest concern is not simply that the president is making
money from his office, but the potential for corruption,” said Barbara
McQuade, a former federal prosecutorfor eastern Michigan who now teaches at the University of Michigan law school.
“Trump’s
settlement of his lawsuit against the IRS typifies his self-dealing.
The judge assigned to the case later found that because Trump controlled
both sides of the case, there was no adversity of parties to provide
the court with jurisdiction. Instead, Trump used the court to legitimize
what was essentially a gift to him at taxpayer expense.”
Since
his second term began, Trump has dismissed concerns about conflicts of
interests, boasting to the New York Times in January that he has a “very honest family” and that he had never taken his presidential salary.
Unlike
prior presidents, though, Trump has declined to put his assets in a
completely blind trust or divest from his businesses, although ethics
experts have urged him to do so.
Despite
Trump’s protestations, Trump’s crypto earnings in 2025 are eye-popping
–especially in contrast to the dismal returns for many investors and
given Trump’s warnings in 2021 that crypto was a “scam”, and a “disaster
waiting to happen”. Trump’s strong embrace of crypto came after the
industry poured millions of dollars into his 2024 campaign, and he pledged to make the US “the crypto capital of the world” with less regulation.
For
instance, the crypto venture World Liberty Financial, which Trump and
his sons launched in the fall of 2024 with the family of Steve Witkoff,
who now is Trump’s special Middle East envoy, brought in $799m in 2025
for Trump, according to public filings.
Last year too, Trump earned another $636m from his novelty memecoin $Trump which Trump began marketing just days before his inauguration in 2025.
The
Democratic senators Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Adam Schiff
of California this year wrote a tough letter to the Trump-allied
memecoin marketing firm Fight Fight Fight as Trump was poised to host an
April event for buyers of $Trump at Mar-a-Lago similar to one Trump
hosted at his Virginia golf club last year.
“We
have previously raised concerns with President Trump’s willingness to
use the presidency for personal profit,” the lawmakers noted in their
letter to the marketing firm for $Trump.
The
letter stressed that “not all $TRUMP holders have benefited from their
investment”, and cited a February industry report that $TRUMP – and the
first lady’s memecoin, $MELANIA – “erased an estimated $4.3 billion in
retail wealth in recent months, with 2 million holders currently
underwater”. In stark contrast, the same report found that 45 other crypto wallets that were early holders of $Trump coins had profited by about $1.2bn.
After Trump’s memecoin bash
in 2025 prompted conflict of interest questions and charges of
corruption , the press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, said Trump was
“abiding by all conflict-of-interest laws that are applicable to the
president”.
But legal critics and experts say
Trump’s monetization of his presidency has given short shrift to
conflict of interest concerns, as his regulators have eased oversight
and Trump has used his office to reward an array of wealthy allies in
crypto and other fields.
The Cornell economist
Eswar Prasad faults the Trump administration’s regulatory laxness for
some of the scandals and legal headaches that have plagued the crypto
industry.
“The Trump administration has
clearly shifted the priorities and focus of the government’s regulatory
apparatus to look past any and all sins of the crypto industry, thereby
directly benefiting the Trump family’s financial interests,” Prasad
said.
A case in point, say critics, has been
the weak oversight of Binance, the world’s biggest crypto exchange that
has benefited Trump’s World Liberty Financial.
WLF was tapped to play a central role in a $2bn investment by the Abu Dhabi financial fund MGX that is backed by the United Arab Emirates in Binance. As part of the deal, the Abu Dhabi fund bought $2bn of a WLF stablecoin, dubbed USD1, to invest in Binance. Stablecoins are a popular type of cryptocurrency that are often pegged to the dollar.
The
WLF deal came after Binance in 2023 pleaded guilty to violating US
money-laundering laws and other violations and the justice department
fined it a whopping $4.3bn.
Furthermore,
Binance’s ex-CEO and founder, Changpeng Zhao, pleaded guilty in the US
to violating the Bank Secrecy Act and failing to maintain an effective
anti-money-laundering program.
Zhao, who still owns 90% of Binance, served a four-month jail term in 2024 and last year received a pardon from Trump. Despite Binance pledges to crack down on crime, internal investigators last year found that about $1.7bn in crypto reportedly moved through Binance to Iranian entities linked to terrorism.
Similarly,
watchdog groups are sharply critical of Truth Social’s offer to sell
Wall Street advance looks at Trump’s Truth Social posts for $100,000 per
month.
“Using the presidency to channel
non-public information to his media company’s major institutional
customers for profit is not simply Trump’s newest act in self-dealing,”
said Virginia Canter, the chief counsel for ethics and anti-corruption
with Democracy Defenders Action.
“It is a
significant escalation in exploiting and monetizing the presidency for
his personal private gain. Providing Trump Media high-speed access to
official non-public information is a step towards normalizing insider
trading and public corruption, disregarding the damage it may cause to
regular investors who will not have the same access as his wealthy
institutional customers.”
Canter added that
“Trump is increasingly dependent on the presidency to generate business
profits since his media company has been losing money over the past
several quarters.”
Trump Media & Technology, the company behind the Truth Social platform, on 10 August announced it lost a whopping $238m in the three months through June as it branched out into new businesses including crypto.
Top Democrats echo these critiques.
In a July letter
to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Senators Schiff and
Warren called the new Truth Social deal “an outrageous abuse of the
President’s office for his personal benefit that undermines everyday
investors and the integrity of our markets, while enriching Wall Street
and other wealthy insiders”.
Looking forward,
McQuade urged “new rules and new consequences to protect the public from
a president willing to put his own financial benefit ahead of the
public interest”.
