The trial over Johnny Depp's $50 million defamation suit against ex-wife Amber Heard resumed Monday with testimony from a man who worked as a security guard for Depp. Travis McGivern described hearing arguments between the couple ramp up after they returned from a trip to Australia in March 2015, "I wouldn't say nightly, but every other night, several times a week." Heard has accused Depp of physically and sexually assaulting her on multiple occasions before and during their brief marriage. He then sued her for defamation after she wrote an op-ed in 2018 in The Washington Post in which she referred to herself as a "public figure representing domestic abuse." She never mentioned Depp by name in the op-ed, but his lawyers argued it was a clear reference to accusations Heard made in 2016 when she sought a restraining order against him. In Monday's testimony, McGivern said he witnessed "lots of name-calling, lots of f-bombs," which he said were typically from "Miss Heard, directing her feelings toward Mr. Depp." He also described an argument in which "I saw Miss Heard throw a Red Bull can from her position that struck Mr. Depp in the back."

WASHINGTON — The Justice Department announced Tuesday that it will appeal the ruling that lifted the federal mask mandate on planes, trains and transit systems, pending a decision by the Center for Disease Control that the order is still required for public health. The Justice Department will not, however, ask the court to stay the decision, meaning passengers will be able to continue traveling maskless while the decision is litigated. In the day since a federal judge in Florida struck down the CDC’s requirement, numerous airlines and public transit systems have announced that masks were optional. "The Department of Justice and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) disagree with the district court’s decision and will appeal, subject to CDC’s conclusion that the order remains necessary for public health," the DOJ said in a statement. On Monday, U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle ruled the travel mask mandate unlawful. The White House said the Transportation Security Administration would not enforce the rule on public transport and transportation hubs while the ruling is reviewed. The decision to appeal could be driven less by the current conditions and more by a need to preserve the ability of the CDC to issue future mandates. Monday’s decision was broad, challenging the government’s right to issue a national mandate.

Frank James, 62, is alleged to have donned a construction worker's helmet, vest and a gas mask before throwing smoke grenades and opening fire. A massive 30-hour manhunt was launched in the wake of the attack. Mr James was taken into custody on Wednesday afternoon in Manhattan after police received a tip-off, they said. "My fellow New Yorkers: we got him," Mayor Eric Adams said via video during a news conference. Officials said Mr James was the sole suspect in the shooting at Brooklyn's 36th Street station on Tuesday morning, in which 23 people were wounded, 10 of them from gunfire. The attack renewed calls to address violence in the city's transit system.

Hong Kong (CNN Business)Factories shut down, new model launches delayed and sales plunging.

Hunter Biden, the son of President Biden, is under federal investigation for potential violations of tax, money laundering and foreign lobbying laws through his business relationships abroad. The federal investigation into Biden, which began in 2018, is reportedly heating up as prosecutors from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Delaware seek grand jury testimony concerning the sources of the first son’s foreign income, including from Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma Holdings Ltd., of which Biden served on the board of directors. Prosecutors have also questioned one of Biden’s associates about his drug and alcohol abuse in 2018, the Wall Street Journal reported this week. Hunter, who has adamantly denied any wrongdoing, hasn't been charged with a crime related to the investigation so far.

Washington (CNN)A Justice Department investigation into Hunter Biden's business activities has gained steam in recent months, with a flurry of witnesses providing testimony to federal investigators and more expected to provide interviews in the coming weeks, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter. The probe, led by the US Attorney in Wilmington, Delaware, began as early as 2018 and concerns multiple financial and business activities in foreign countries dating to when Biden's father was vice president. Investigators have examined whether Hunter Biden and some of his associates violated money laundering, tax and foreign lobbying laws, as well as firearm and other regulations, multiple sources said. To do so, law enforcement has gathered information from lobbyists connected to Hunter Biden, from his business partners, and from others who've observed his financial engagements, including a woman with whom he had a child. Hunter Biden has not been charged with any crimes and has denied any wrongdoing. His father, President Joe Biden is not being investigated as part of the probe of his son's business activities, according to sources who have been briefed.

That is not a question that Americans should ever have to ask themselves, and yet today, with war raging in Europe, inflation emptying pocketbooks, and a southern border we can’t control, we have to ask it. Who is actually running the country? Because it sure doesn’t seem like it’s President Joe Biden. This past weekend in Poland, Biden gave a speech that the White House itself touted as one of the most important of his presidency. In a final and forceful moment he paused and then, referring to Russian President Vladimir Putin, said, "For God’s sake, this man cannot remain in power." US AMBASSADOR TO NATO CLEANS UP BIDEN'S REMARKS, SAYS US ‘DOES NOT HAVE A POLICY OF REGIME CHANGE IN RUSSIA’ It should have been like JFK proclaiming he was a "Berliner," or Reagan demanding that the wall which once divided that city come down. Instead, it was immediately walked back. By whom? On what authority?

A Russian landing ship has been destroyed and two other boats have been damaged in the occupied Ukrainian port city of Berdyansk, say Ukrainian officials. The Ukrainian military posted footage early on Thursday and said the Orsk had been hit by its forces. Details of what caused the explosion and fire on board the ship are unclear. Berdyansk, which is west of the besieged port of Mariupol, was seized four days after Russia invaded Ukraine. Russia says it has used the port as a base to ferry in equipment for its troops. Russian army TV hailed the arrival of the Orsk in Berdyansk last week as an "epic event" as it was the first Russian warship to dock there.
