The US says it has seized two sanctioned oil tankers linked to Venezuela after in back-to-back actions in the North Atlantic and the Caribbean, officials said on Wednesday.

Trump says he takes a higher daily dose of aspirin than his doctors advise in lengthy interview on his health

US President Donald Trump told The Wall Street Journal in an interview that he takes a higher dose of aspirin than his doctors have recommended, blaming that for the visible hand bruises that have generated renewed questions about his health.
