From McConnell to Biden: What’s with politicians hiding health problems? 0 (0)

There was a national reckoning after the 2024 presidential campaign about federal officials — Joe Biden and his White House, specifically — hiding important health information from the public. But the hiding hasn’t stopped. If anything, it appears to be getting worse. Increasingly, some very high-profile public officials seem to have concluded that constituents and the broader public simply aren’t entitled to basic information explaining lengthy absences from their jobs. And their staffs are enabling them. Republican Rep. Tom Kean of New Jersey recently returned to the House after spending more than 100 days away with no explanation at the [See More…]

Just hours after President Donald Trump said he’s considering selling F-35 stealth fighter jets to Turkey, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke against the potential move, even as he downplayed divisions between the two world leaders.

Trump won in 2024 promising lower prices, no new wars, and an end to inflation. It hasn’t quite worked out that way.

1.4M casualties: Russia is ‘losing at historical numbers’ 0 (0)

Now, for the first time in a conflict that is in its fifth year, the stark reality of what the Kremlin still insists on calling a “special military operation” has become impossible for ordinary Russians to comfortably ignore. In the past month, Ukraine’s unprecedented drone campaign has been extraordinary in scale and impact. On a single night last week, Russia reported intercepting 660 drones across 12 regions — one of the largest Ukrainian attacks since Russia launched its full-scale invasion in 2022. CNN takes a look at the recent offensive and whether or not it’ll make Russia change course. 0:00 [See More…]

Trump wants to ditch his signature trade deal 0 (0)

Six years ago, President Donald Trump hailed his US-Mexico-Canada Agreement, or USMCA, as the “fairest, most balanced, and beneficial trade agreement we have ever signed.” Now, as the pact is up for review, Trump says he’s ready to abandon it. “I’m not looking to renew it,” Trump said last month. “We don’t need anything that Canada has. We don’t need anything that Mexico has, but they need everything that we have. They have to treat us better.” The USMCA, which replaced the North American Free Trade Agreement, facilitates roughly $2 trillion in annual trade among the three neighboring countries.

America’s Fourth of July? Or Donald Trump’s? 0 (0)

Ten years ago, Congress created and funded a bipartisan organization, America 250, to plan and execute celebrations across the country. Those are still going on, but President Trump wanted something else. The White House, after staffing disagreements, set up Freedom 250 — a separate, public/private entity — to do things more to his liking, It seems predictable that, rather than a Fourth of July celebration for Americans of all political persuasions, he’s advertising the massive fireworks display on the National Mall as “the most spectacular TRUMP RALLY of them all, a ‘TRIBUTE TO AMERICA.’” Abby Phillip’s “NewsNight” panel debates the [See More…]
