A massive dump of documents – obtained by subpoena from the Epstein Estate – is reigniting questions about U.S. President Donald Trump’s ties to late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Among the more than 20,000 pages released by House Democrats and Republicans are emails between Epstein – who died in jail in 2019 – and his associates. In one email to a journalist, Epstein – referring to Trump – wrote "Of course, he knew about the girls." Jackson Proskow has our top story on the emails and how the White House is reacting.
North of the U.S. border, Prime Minister Mark Carney was in British Columbia Wednesday, as he prepares to announce the next list of items as part of the government’s projects-of-national-interest initiative. B.C. already has two of the approved projects, and according to sources, it’s expected to be home to at least one more when Carney unveils the second phase of his major projects plan on Thursday. Mackenzie Gray breaks down what we know about the shortlist.
Over in Alberta, the provincial government and the oil and gas industry will be paying close attention to Carney’s announcement. They have high hopes for a new pipeline to the West Coast. No private investor has expressed interest in building the pipeline, and B.C. Premier David Eby isn’t interested either. As Heather Yourex-West reports, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith insists that without a new pipeline, national unity is on the line.
Overseas, a major corruption scandal is rocking Ukraine, reaching deep into President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s inner circle. Ukraine’s energy and justice ministers both resigned Wednesday after an investigation by the anti-corruption bureau uncovered a $100-million kickback scheme tied to the state’s nuclear power company. It’s the most serious corruption scandal of Zelenskyy’s presidency, as Ukraine continues to press Western allies to support its ongoing war with Russia. Nathaniel Dove reports.
