(CNN) — Una parte importante del legado de Jimmy Carter no ha recibido demasiada atención, ni siquiera en medio de la reciente avalancha de homenajes al 39º presidente de Estados Unidos tras ingresar en un centro de cuidados paliativos.Las medidas que Carter tomó durante su presidencia siguen dando forma a Estados Unidos décadas después de que dejara el cargo. Pero no le ayudaron en las urnas.Gracias a las medidas de Carter, cientos de miles de personas que huían de la persecución tuvieron la oportunidad de llegar a Estados Unidos cuando él era presidente. Y millones más se reasentaron en Estados Unidos después de que dejara el cargo.“Era muy consciente del costo político”, afirma el biógrafo de Carter Kai Bird, autor de “The Outlier: The Unfinished Presidency of Jimmy Carter”. Cuando se trataba de abordar cuestiones difíciles, dice Bird, Carter no rehuía a la hora de hacer lo que creía correcto.Y ahí es donde Carter se encontró en el verano de 1979, to...Jokic scores 41 points in Nuggets Game 2 loss to Heat in NBA Finals

A local Girl Scout is sharing her passion for books, and she’s getting her community ready to read, just in time for summer.When many students in Miami-Dade County Public Schools have dreams of putting down the books for summer break, 11-year-old Jaaliyah Powell has other plans.“I noticed there were not very many libraries in Dade County, so I decided to build one for my Bronze project to encourage more people to read more,” she said.The graduating fifth grader brought the idea to her mother, Latavia Powell-McGaha, who said she hesitated at first and ended up racking up some serious mileage collecting books from Homestead up to West Palm Beach.“Here we are today, over 500-plus books donated. I am one proud mom,” said Powell-McGaha.It was all worth it.

LONDON — Vladimir Putin’s illegal invasion of Ukraine has had repercussions for every part of Europe. A spate of burglaries in the sleepier corners of rural England may seem an unlikely addition to the list.But British police say organized criminal gangs are sending machinery and equipment stolen from farms across the U.K. to Eastern Europe in rapidly-increasing quantities, and blame the crippling Western sanctions imposed on Russia for soaring demand.“We know from where we’ve recovered equipment, where we are seeing equipment we have recovered but also that’s being tracked before we can intercept it, it’s heading to Eastern Europe, without a doubt,” Superintendent Andrew Huddleston, who leads the U.K.’s National Rural Crime Unit, told POLITICO. Huddlestone has no conclusive evidence the equipment is ultimately destined for heavily sanctioned Russia, but says he and senior colleagues are in little doubt.“If you asked me my professional opinion, for a country that’s under ...Mexico president’s ruling party forecast to win governorship of country’s most populous state

The outcome will not be final until all ballots were counted.

CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — An Australian woman who spent 20 years in prison was pardoned and released Monday based on new scientific evidence that her four children died by natural causes as she had insisted.The pardon was seen as the quickest way of getting Kathleen Folbigg out of prison, and a final report from the second inquiry into her guilt could recommend the state Court of Appeals quash her convictions.Folbigg, now 55, was released from a prison in Grafton, New South Wales state, following an unconditional pardon by Gov. Margaret Beazley.Australian state governors are figureheads who act on instructions of governments. New South Wales Attorney-General Michael Daley said former justice Tom Bathurst had advised him last week there was reasonable doubt about Folbigg’s guilt based on new scientific evidence that the deaths could have been from natural causes.“There is a reasonable doubt as to Ms. Folbigg’s guilt of the manslaughter of her child Caleb, the infliction of gri...Latest news
