that white South African farmers were being systematically killed, raising eyebrows.

On Tantalus, satisfaction at last.WASHINGTON (AP) — When President Donald Trump directed his attorney general last month to investigate online fundraising, he cited concerns that foreigners and fraudsters were using elaborate “schemes” and “dummy accounts” to funnel illegal contributions to politicians and causes.

Instead of calling for an expansive probe, however, the president identified just one potential target: ActBlue,which has acknowledged receiving over 200 potentially illicit contributions last year from foreign internet addresses.Trump’s announcement also contained a glaring omission — his own political committees have received scores of contributions from potentially problematic donors.

The White House did not respond to questions about Trump’s fundraising. Instead, a senior administration official pointed to a recent House Republican investigation of ActBlue, which the White House alleges “uncovered specific evidence of potentially unlawful conduct.”The Justice Department did not respond to a request for comment.

Here are some takeaways from the AP’s review of Trump’s political committees:

It’s against the law for U.S. candidates and political committees to accept contributions from foreign nationals. Laws also place strict limits on donation amounts and prohibit the laundering of contributions to get around legal caps. For the most part, such donations have been policed by campaigns and the Federal Election Commission, with only the most egregious examples being targeted by federal law enforcement.for his engagement with the continent’s crises, many Catholics simply want a pope who will be a faithful leader for everyone.

“For us, it does not matter whether he is African, white, or Black. What matters is having a good, holy pope who can unite Catholics across the world,” said Luka Lawrence Ndenge, an emergency officer with the Catholic charity Caritas in the remote town of Wau in South Sudan.The father of two said he believes an African can rise to the papacy, especially as “we already have African cardinals who are fully capable.”

Bishop Tesfaselassie Medhin, primate of Adigrat in the Ethiopian region of Tigray, said he hopes the next pope will be as compassionate as Francis, who repeatedly called attention to war in Tigray in 2021 and 2022.But the prospect of having a Black African pope is exciting, he said.
