Itamar Ben-Gvir filmed himself taunting handcuffed Gaza flotilla activists at an Israeli port. France and Italy condemned it. Neither has suspended arms transfers to the government he serves.
Harry Dunn and Daniel Hodges defended the Capitol on January 6, 2021. Now they're suing to block a $1.8 billion fund they argue is designed to compensate the people who attacked them — with no eligibility rules, no oversight, and disbursement controlled by the president's own appointees.
The WHO is tracking 600 Ebola cases and 139 deaths, with no vaccine deployable for nine months. The global health infrastructure designed to prevent exactly this scenario was dismantled by U.S. foreign aid cuts earlier this year.
Larry Bushart spent 37 days in jail for Facebook memes about Charlie Kirk. The government settled for $835,000 rather than defend that arrest in court — which is the clearest possible signal of what the government knew it had done.
Airlines for America CEO Chris Sununu says Spirit's bankruptcy proves regulators should approve more airline mergers. His members are the carriers that benefit most when budget competitors disappear.

Twenty-five states are suing to block new graduate loan caps that would cut off financing for medical students from low-income backgrounds — and accelerate a doctor shortage in the rural and underserved communities that can least afford it.
The UK has granted a sanctions waiver on Russian oil imports to manage fuel shortages caused by the Hormuz blockade. The war Washington launched without allied coordination is now forcing its closest partner to fund the economy it spent three years trying to isolate.
A forthcoming White House AI executive order would give federal agencies early access to the most powerful AI systems 90 days before public release — with no independent safety review and a voluntary framework AI companies can abandon at will.
Acting AG Todd Blanche admitted before a Senate subcommittee that the DOJ's $1.776 billion 'anti-weaponization' fund has no written eligibility rules, no independent oversight, and could compensate Trump campaign donors and January 6 convicts — administered by the president's own former defense lawy
The current Ebola outbreak involves a rare strain with no approved vaccine, spreading through conflict-torn eastern DRC and into Uganda. Public health experts warn it could rival 2014's catastrophic surge — and the global response infrastructure that might have stopped it was dismantled earlier this
Financial disclosures show hundreds of thousands of dollars invested in Eli Lilly on Trump's behalf while his administration expanded access to the company's obesity drugs. No law stops this — and that's the story.
