US judge limits Trump's ability to swiftly deport migrants held at Guantanamo Bay
BOSTON (Reuters) -A federal judge ordered the Trump administration on Wednesday to ensure migrants held at Guantanamo Bay are given a chance to raise any concerns about their safety before deporting them to El Salvador or countries other than their places of origin. U.S. District Judge Brian Murphy in Boston issued the order after immigrant rights advocates argued the administration had violated a court order he issued by flying four Venezuelans held at the U.S. naval base in Cuba to El Salvador on a flight conducted by the U.S. Department of Defense.

South Carolina treasurer appears to survive attempt to kick him out of office
Republican South Carolina Treasurer Curtis Loftis appears likely to stay in office for at least the rest of the year. The Republican-dominated House has decided not to take up a resolution passed by the Senate to kick Loftis out of office because of his role in a phantom $1.8 billion account that showed up on the state’s books but had barely any real money in it and the failure to report it to lawmakers for years. The Senate sent the resolution to remove Loftis to the House on April 21.

The home of Elon Musk's SpaceX could become an official Texas city called Starbase
Elon Musk has for years made Texas a business home and playground, launching rockets, building cars, and dreaming about creating a utopian enclave for his workers on the rural outskirts of the state capital. Now, a new Musk project is on the brink of victory: an election Saturday to officially turn a small patch of coastal South Texas — home to his rocket company SpaceX — into a city known as Starbase. If Musk prevails — which appears likely, since the small number of residents eligible to vote include his employees — it will be a victory for the mega-billionaire whose popularity has waned since he became the chain-saw-wielding public face of President Donald Trump's federal job and spending cuts, and sunk more than $20 million into a failed effort to tip Wisconsin Supreme Court elections. Profits at his Tesla car company have plummeted.

Nigerian judge adjourns Binance tax evasion case to May 12
ABUJA (Reuters) -A Nigerian judge on Wednesday adjourned a tax evasion case against the world's largest crypto exchange until next month after the revenue service asked for permission to serve court documents by email to Binance.
