Last week, UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham announced in Kiev that defense manufacturer MBDA had been authorized to disclose information concerning the British components of the SCALP missile, the French version of the long-range Storm Shadow, to Ukraine.Officially, the decision concerns documentation required to organize local assembly, but in practice, it could facilitate the transfer of blueprints, components, assembly kits or finished missiles.Moscow regards this technology transfer as the UK crossing a red line, as London hasn’t even attempted to shift responsibility onto intermediaries and the decision was publicly authorized by the prime minister. Britain has therefore assumed direct responsibility…

President Trump speaks to reporters in the Oval Office (September 4, 2026) President Trump on Friday again signaled that Iran’s Pickaxe Mountain could be hit by US forces “very soon,” suggesting that the US is surveilling the site near the Natanz nuclear complex for nuclear enrichment activity.  Israeli intelligence claims that Iran has been rebuilding their nuclear program since last fall at the site. ABC’s Rachel Scott asked Trump about Vice President JD Vance’s comments a day earlier, where he said, “I wouldn’t call it a war.

Tim Andrews spent 271 days living with a genetically modified pig kidney before receiving a human kidney transplant in January, giving new hope to patients struggling with dialysis, according to a paper published Thursday in the Lancet. The New York Times reports that Andrews was 66 when diabetes and high blood pressure destroyed his kidneys. He had survived two heart attacks, had no appetite, and was too weak to walk. “I was dying,” he said. His rare blood type made finding a matching human donor kidney even less likely, and he was one of roughly 90,000 people on the U.S. waiting…

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) opened an investigation into Tesla’s Cybercab on Friday morning, just hours after the company put the first of the driverless vehicles on the streets of Austin, Texas. TechCrunch reports that Elon Musk’s Cybercab has no steering wheel and no pedals. That runs headlong into federal vehicle safety rules requiring manual controls even in robotaxis. The Department of Transportation has proposed dropping those requirements for vehicles built to drive themselves, but the change hasn’t taken effect yet. Tesla told NHTSA it self-certified the Cybercab as compliant with all Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards anyway,…

The Justice Department’s civil rights section is investigating numerous allegations of anti-American discrimination by hiring managers and their companies, says Harmeet Dhillon, the U.S. assistant attorney general for civil rights. “We have absolutely ramped this up big time, and it’s our main focus,” Dhillon told streamer Sara Gonzales on September 2. “Almost all of our new cases involving labor discrimination actually involve discrimination against Americans,” she said.  “We’re working together with EEOC and the Department of Labor to put a stop to this discrimination and make sure there’s a level playing field for the American worker,” she said. Dhillon’s statements were…

The U.S. State Department has updated its travel warning for Libya to the highest level, advising Americans not to visit the highly unstable country “for any reason” — and to “prepare a will and end-of-life instructions” if they must go there. Libya has long been under a Level 4 travel advisory, the most severe designation issued by the State Department. Level 4 advisories are reviewed and updated at least once every six months. On August 31, the State of Libya advisory was updated to “Do Not Travel.” “Do not travel to Libya for any reason due to crime, terrorism, health…

The upcoming German election pits two very similar power camps against each other, with one of them thriving on elite panic Recently, a middle-aged man on an e-bike was passing me on the sidewalk.

I said no, just as alarmed as she was.A little later, a woman was handing out SPD balloons between market stalls and a stage in the town center. I listed the cruelties her party in Berlin…
