Sen. Elizabeth Warren used her time at a Senate Banking Committee hearing Wednesday to accuse Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh of corruption, demanding he reveal who paid him more than $100 million before he took office and charging that he is fostering an ethical culture at the Fed that "seems to invite corruption."

Sen. Elizabeth Warren used her time at a Senate Banking Committee hearing Wednesday to accuse Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh of corruption, demanding he reveal who paid him more than $100 million before he took office and charging that he is fostering an ethical culture at the Fed that "seems to invite corruption." Warsh, appearing for his second day of congressional testimony this week, pushed back, citing his compliance with the Office of Government Ethics and flatly denying the framing of Warren's central accusation. But the Massachusetts Democrat pressed on, turning the hearing into a sustained confrontation that touched on Warsh's personal finances, a separate ethics controversy involving the Fed's vice chair of supervision,…Open
The U.S. House passed the Sunshine Protection Act with overwhelming support, moving the country one step closer to ending the twice-yearly clock change, and one step into a Senate that may not be ready to follow.

The U.S. House passed the Sunshine Protection Act with overwhelming support, moving the country one step closer to ending the twice-yearly clock change, and one step into a Senate that may not be ready to follow. The bill, designated House Bill 139 in the 119th Congress, would make daylight saving time permanent across the United States. If enacted, Americans would no longer "fall back" each November or "spring forward" each March. President Trump celebrated the vote on Truth Social, calling it "Great News for America!" He had previously signaled in May, when the bill cleared the House Energy and Commerce Committee, that he would sign it into law if it reached his desk. But the Senate is a different chamber with a different mood. And the…Open
Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin singled out four of the Democratic Party's most visible figures, including two widely discussed 2028 presidential contenders, for hosting webinars, publishing multilingual guides, and posting social media instructions that he said teach illegal immigrants how to "openly defy" Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin singled out four of the Democratic Party's most visible figures, including two widely discussed 2028 presidential contenders, for hosting webinars, publishing multilingual guides, and posting social media instructions that he said teach illegal immigrants how to "openly defy" Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. Mullin's broadside, delivered in a social media post shared by DHS, named Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, California Gov. Gavin Newsom, Rep. Dan Goldman of New York, and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass. The accusation landed the same morning President Trump announced that ICE would resume vehicle stops after a one-day pause triggered by two officer-involved shootings in…Open
Ramsey County Sheriff Bob Fletcher says several shootings over the July 4th weekend in the Minneapolis metro area trace back to Somali youth gangs, groups he estimates are responsible for 14 homicides and more than 100 gang-related shootings in the past two years alone.

Ramsey County Sheriff Bob Fletcher says several shootings over the July 4th weekend in the Minneapolis metro area trace back to Somali youth gangs, groups he estimates are responsible for 14 homicides and more than 100 gang-related shootings in the past two years alone. Fletcher made the claims during a livestream, as reported by the Daily Caller , describing a scene at a business called Juice Time in Arden Hills where roughly 300 Somali youth gathered over the holiday weekend. Some of those present, Fletcher said, were gang members. Law enforcement officers on site managed to tamp down trouble at that location, but it didn't hold. Two hours later, Fletcher said, the same group was shooting someone in northeast Minneapolis. A sheriff's…Open
Sen. Jon Ossoff has built his 2026 reelection campaign around a simple pitch: he's the populist fighting a "coin-operated" political system rigged by the ultra-rich. Federal Election Commission records tell a different story. The Georgia Democrat has accepted nearly $400,000 from 39 billionaire donors since the start of 2025, not one of whom appears to […] The post Jon Ossoff rakes in nearly $400,000 from 39 out-of-state billionaires while railing against big money in politics appeared first on American Almanac .
Sen. Jon Ossoff has built his 2026 reelection campaign around a simple pitch: he's the populist fighting a "coin-operated" political system rigged by the ultra-rich. Federal Election Commission records tell a different story. The Georgia Democrat has accepted nearly $400,000 from 39 billionaire donors since the start of 2025, not one of whom appears to be from his home state. The gap between Ossoff's rhetoric and his fundraising is not a matter of interpretation. It is documented in his own FEC filings and in his own words. The Washington Free Beacon identified the 39 donors by cross-referencing Forbes billionaire listings with FEC contribution records for Ossoff's campaign committee. The names read like a directory of progressive…Open

While millions of Americans braved record heat and severe storms to celebrate the nation's semiquincentennial, a handful of communities with direct connections to the founding chose this moment, of all moments, to cancel their Fourth of July festivities. Mount Holly, New Jersey. Rutland, Massachusetts. Millville, New Jersey. Each town traces its roots to the Revolution itself. Each went dark on the country's 250th birthday. The reasons varied. Officials cited public safety concerns, staffing shortages, and budget constraints. But in at least one case, the cancellation landed just weeks after voters rejected a tax increase, raising pointed questions about whether residents were being punished for how they voted. The timing could hardly be…Open
