Afghanistan Faces Equipment Loss From U S Taxpayer Aid
Insurgent raids disrupt Afghan forces as U S funding nears 80 billion dollars since 2002. About 300,000 security personnel rely on American financing and face high casualties since 2014. Some equipment may already be diverted to the Taliban due to corruption in the Afghan military.

Trump grants clemency after Kardashian plea
President Trump commuted Alice Marie Johnson’s life sentence for cocaine trafficking to time served after a meeting with Kim Kardashian West. Johnson, 63, was convicted in 1996 on five drug counts and one money laundering count, and will be released immediately from Aliceville Federal Correctional Institution in Alabama under court supervised release for five years. Johnson’s case drew support from Kardashian and her lawyers amid broader debate on presidential clemency power and non-violent drug offense reforms.
