A Tennessee congressman filed articles of impeachment against a federal judge appointed by Barack Obama, accusing her of defying the Supreme Court by blocking the Trump administration from ending Temporary Protected Status for Somalis. Rep. Andy Ogles moved to impeach U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs after she issued a stay on Friday that temporarily prevents the administration from terminating TPS, a humanitarian program that shields foreign nationals who fled war or natural disasters in their home countries, for Somali recipients. The stay came down weeks after the Supreme Court's ruling in Mullin v. Doe, handed down in June, which significantly curbed lower courts' ability to block executive TPS decisions. Ogles, a Republican…Open

Roughly 60,000 migrants crossed from Morocco into Spain's North African enclave of Ceuta in a single day, and the chaos that followed, deadly stampedes, street clashes, and a European political crisis, shows no sign of ending. Footage from Ceuta captured crowds of migrants raising fists and chanting "Allahu Akbar", Arabic for "God is Great", as Spanish police officers armed with batons charged into a demonstration that had turned violent. In one clip, a wounded man was carried away wrapped in a blanket while the chanting continued around him. The confrontation took place on a Sunday, days after the initial mass crossing overwhelmed the small Spanish territory that sits on the Moroccan coast. The scale of the surge is staggering. Tens of…Open

Washington Gov. Bob Ferguson declared a statewide wildfire emergency and banned outdoor burning across all 39 counties as fires in Spokane destroyed at least 700 structures and drove tens of thousands from their homes, with 14 people still unaccounted for. The fires tearing through eastern Washington have burned more than 8,000 acres near Spokane with zero containment, according to Newsmax , leveling homes, businesses, and entire neighborhoods while 900 crews and National Guard soldiers fight to hold the line. Officials said Monday that the destruction toll, already at 700 structures, many of them homes, is expected to climb as satellite imaging of 1,100 additional areas gets underway to assess commercial and residential damage.

Senate leaders from both parties unveiled a short-term spending bill to keep the government open through December, but the deal strips out the administration's request for "Trump-class" battleships and blocks a proposed grant oversight rule that critics on both sides called politically charged.

Senate leaders from both parties unveiled a short-term spending bill to keep the government open through December, but the deal strips out the administration's request for "Trump-class" battleships and blocks a proposed grant oversight rule that critics on both sides called politically charged. The bipartisan continuing resolution, rolled out Sunday on Capitol Hill, would fund federal agencies at current levels through Dec. 11, pushing the next spending fight well past the midterm elections and the September 30 fiscal-year deadline. The Senate plans to vote before lawmakers leave Washington for their August recess. The House has already passed a similar measure, though the Senate version diverges on several key provisions the White House…Open

A Long Island father of three spent five days in the hospital and waited five years for a diagnosis after contracting a rare tick-borne virus that has no treatment, no commercial test, and has already killed two Americans. Michael Larkin, 67, of Suffolk County, New York, became the state's first confirmed case of Bourbon virus after researchers at Stony Brook University identified the infection in April 2026, roughly five years after two lone star ticks bit him while he worked in his own yard. The diagnosis came only after a year-long antibody trial, and it raises a question public health officials should have been asking sooner: how many other cases across the Northeast are going undetected? Bourbon virus was first identified in 2014 in…Open
