In less than three weeks in office, Kast has moved to criminalize migration, raise fuel prices, repeal environmental decrees, and halt the construction of memorial sites commemorating the dictatorship’s atrocities
Some political analysts believed that the government of José Antonio Kast would distance itself from the rhetoric that, while thrusting him into the public spotlight as a radical right-wing politician, had undermined his ability to win a runoff election. After all, political moderation tends to be appealing in Chile, which suffered a bloody dictatorship through the years 1973–1990.
Moreover, Kast himself seemed poised to adopt a more moderate stance when, in his victory speeches, he invited Chile’s center-right to join his project for an “emergency government” – as he himself described his future administration.
However, such assumptions are fading as power is being decisively exercised by a Washington ally who appears to be embracing the style and political practices of the Trump administration, with which presidents such as Milei in Argentina, Noboa in Ecuador, Bukele in El Salvador, Paz in Bolivia, and others are also aligning themselves
Trump tells countries to "build up delayed courage", and "take" Iran's oil, "it should be easy"
https://www.wral.com/news/ap/b5970-read-the-complete-transcript-of-trumps-address-to-the-nation/So to those countries that can’t get fuel, many of which refuse to get involved in the decapitation of Iran — we had to do it ourselves — I have a suggestion. No. 1, buy oil from the United States of America. We have plenty. We have so much. And No. 2, build up some delayed courage. Should have done it before. Should have done it with us as we asked. Go to the straight and just take it, protect it, use it for yourselves. Iran has been essentially decimated. The hard part is done, so it should be easy.
every single one of the people, their loved ones said, "Please, sir, please finish the job,"
As we celebrate this progress, we think especially of the 13 American warriors who have laid down their lives in this fight to prevent our children from ever having to face a nuclear Iran. Twice this past month, I have traveled to Dover Air Force Base, and it’s been something, I wanted to be with those heroes as they returned to American soil. I was with them and their families, their parents, their wives, their husbands. We salute them. And now we must honor them by completing the mission for which they gave their lives. And every single one of the people, their loved ones said, “Please, sir, please finish the job,” every one of them, and we are going to finish the job and we’re going to finish it very fast. We’re getting very close

A local doctor and the CEO of the Stuart/Martin County Chamber of Commerce are under fire for controversial comments made on social media.
The comments were made underneath a LinkedIn post about a Food and Drug Administration decision to phase out animal testing during drug research.
"BRAVO. About time we start using illegal immigrants!" one comment said, posted from a LinkedIn page associated with Dr. Philip Seibel, a cardiothoracic surgeon at HCA Florida Lawnwood, a trauma care center in Fort Pierce.

Woman finds out abandoned dog was left behind by family who was deported
https://www.wymt.com/2026/04/01/woman-finds-out-abandoned-dog-was-left-behind-by-family-who-was-deported/TUCSON, Ariz. (KPHO/Gray News) — Arizona residents say they are finding more pets being left behind without any care due to the owners being deported.
In one such case, a Tucson woman recently discovered a husky wandering alone in the desert.
Jaime Simpson says she spotted the dog without a collar, an owner or any water. She thought he might belong to someone nearby.
“We thought maybe he belonged to somebody, so we didn’t want to just take him or do anything,” Simpson said.
The dog didn’t run off. Instead, he latched onto Simpson and began following her.
California woman returns home after the Trump administration deported her to Mexico
https://apnews.com/article/deportation-return-mexico-california-daca-c1b4f63a6732496c006d29db7ca558adSACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — A California woman who had been living in the U.S. for 27 years before the Trump administration deported her to Mexico in February reunited with her daughter this week after a judge ordered her return.
Mexican citizen Maria de Jesús Estrada Juárez was among the hundreds of thousands of people shielded from deportation under an Obama-era program allowing people brought to the U.S. as children to stay in the country if they generally stay out of trouble.
But that changed Feb. 18 when she showed up for an immigration hearing and was arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and deported the next day.
“I didn’t get to say goodbye,” the 42-year-old mother said at a news conference Tuesday in Sacramento. “It all happened so fast. This has been one of the most painful experiences of my life.”
Estrada Juárez held hands with her daughter and began to choke up as she recounted those experiences.
