President Donald Trump threw himself in the middle of Honduras’ razor-thin presidential race on Monday, warning that there would be "hell to pay" if election officials altered the results.  

Writing on Truth Social, Trump, without offering evidence, accused Honduras of "trying to change the results."

"If they do, there will be hell to pay! The people of Honduras voted in overwhelming numbers on November 30th," Trump said.

The president’s remarks came hours after Ana Paola Hall, president of the National Electoral Council, wrote on X that the preliminary rapid reporting system that began providing results Sunday night had reached its conclusion with votes 57% tallied.

Their count showed a close race between two conservative candidates, Nasry Asfura of the National Party and Salvador Nasralla of the Liberal Party, with Asfura holding a narrow lead of only a few hundred votes. Rixi Moncada, the democratic socialist LIBRE candidate, trailed roughly 20 percentage points behind.  

"It is imperative that the Commission finish counting the Votes," Trump wrote. "Hundreds of thousands of Hondurans must have their Votes counted. Democracy must prevail!"

Officials have said the count would continue but did not specify when updated totals would be released, and parts of the council’s online system appeared to have been taken down.

Just before the freeze, Trump had endorsed Asfura, calling him the "only Honduran candidate his administration would work with and saying he would fight "narco-communists" alongside the U.S.

Both leading candidates have pointed to the close tally as evidence that they are ahead – though both men have stopped short of declaring victory.

Trump’s announcement that he would pardon former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández, who is now serving a 45-year U.S. sentence – also loomed large over the race, underscoring how U.S. politics can intrude in the country’s politics.

Trump’s latest warning injects new pressure into an already hostile post-election environment. The outcome will determine whether the Latin American country shifts away from the ruling LIBRE party and have deep impacts on its future relationship with Washington.

The mark of a good NFL team is their ability to put bad teams away with ease. The New England Patriots made a statement against the New York Giants on Monday night, 33-15.

Drake Maye and the Patriots offense made it look easy from the start.

He found Kayshon Boutte on a 3-yard touchdown pass in the first quarter to help take a commanding 17-0 lead. He then dropped an absolute dime to Kyle Williams on a 33-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter.

Maye’s touchdowns helped the Patriots take a 30-7 lead into the locker room and New England didn’t look back from there.

The second-year quarterback was 24-of-31 with 282 passing yards and two touchdowns. The Giants’ defense was able to get to him three times. Patriots tight end Hunter Henry led the team with four catches for 73 yards.

Rookie running back TreVeyon Henderson had 67 rushing yards on 11 carries.

The Patriots’ defense was able to keep rookie Jaxson Dart at bay for the most part. He was roughed up at points during the game, taking huge hits. He finished 17-of-24 with 139 passing yards and a touchdown pass to Darius Slayton. He added 20 yards on the ground.

The Giants had their share of head-scratching moments during the game.

YOUNGHOE KOO'S FIELD GOAL ATTEMPT GOES HORRIBLY WRONG AS SPECIAL TEAMS WOES CONTINUE FOR GIANTS

Kicker Younghoe Koo, somehow, got caught up in the field as he tried to kick a field goal in the second quarter. The Giants tried to make the most out of it but Jamie Gillan was stopped before he could even think about throwing the football.

Earlier in the game, Dart took a couple of hits from the Patriots defense. First, linebacker Harold Landry III hit Dart near the helmet as he tried to avoid him. There was no penalty flag thrown on the play. On the following drive, Patriots linebacker Christian Elliss trucked Dart as he was running up the sideline. It sparked a brief skirmish and a penalty on Giants tight end Theo Johnson.

New York looked completely out of sync the entire game, underscoring why they are now a 2-11 team. The defense allowed big plays early and often and failed to stop Marcus Jones on a punt return. He returned one to the house 94 yards.

With the win, New England is back on top of the AFC with an 11-2 record and completed a feat not seen since the 1999 Indianapolis Colts. The Patriots are the first team with a 10-game winning streak after losing 13 or more games in the previous season.

The Patriots have a slim lead over the Denver Broncos, who moved to 10-2 on the year after an overtime win over the Washington Commanders on Sunday night.
