A small local Kentucky paper is going viral after publishing serious direct threats to the lives of President Trump, members of his administration, and his supporters in what is either a lazy oversight or something more sinister. On Thursday, Libs of TikTok discovered that the The Mountain Eagle, a newspaper in Whitesburg, KY, had published two death threats in the paper’s “Speak Your Piece” section, which allows readers to anonymously sound off on what is on their minds. One recent comment calls for not only throwing Trump out of office but also executing him and all his fellow “cultists.” “Get…

The first illegal migrants were recorded crossing the English Channel under the new government of Prime Minister Andy Burnham, which was installed by the left-wing Labour Party on Monday. The migrant crisis appears set to continue, as several boats were seen crossing the English Channel from the beaches of France on Wednesday, according to a report from the Press Association. Although the Home Office will not publish official statistics on the number of migrants who reached British beaches until Thursday, Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party said that its sources indicated that around 100 illegals made the journey. In remarks provided…

A subcontractor who worked on former President Barack Obama’s (D) presidential center in Chicago, Illinois, has reportedly shut down operations and laid off workers in the latest drama linked to the property. Adamson Plumbing Contractors owner Mike Owen said his company closed down, laid off 25 union workers, and had to abandon multiple other construction jobs due to the business being owed nearly $4 million, Fox News reported Thursday. “Before the center opened, Owen said the project had left his company with $3.9 million in losses tied to delays, rework, labor overruns, and changing project demands. He said he spent months…

Senate Republicans are warning it won’t be easy to advance the $95 billion budget resolution the House approved Wednesday — and House Majority Leader Steve Scalise on Thursday delivered a blunt response: That’s too bad. “They can say all day long, ‘It’s going to be hard.’ Everything’s hard. Give me a lecture about how hard things are. That’s what I do every day,” Scalise told a small group of reporters. “They’ve got to figure out a way to get it done. They have to get that bill to the president’s desk.” Fresh off narrowly muscling the budget plan through his…

President Trump is delivering remarks this afternoon at the Environmental Protection Agency Headquarters this afternoon, where he will make an announcement on the pledge to protect Americans from paying higher utility bills from data centers. President Trump previously signed the Ratepayer Protection Pledge at a White House event with top administration officials and leading AI and technology companies. “Today, we follow through on an announcement I made in my State of the Union address last week as America’s largest tech companies officially sign the Ratepayer Protection Pledge,” Trump said before signing the pledge. “It’s a big deal; it’s going…

China’s state-run Global Times on Monday published a gloating editorial about “shifting global talent flows” that are leading a “growing number of Chinese scientific and technological talents opting to return home” after having emigrated to the United States. The marquee exhibit for this contention was Yang Zhilin, the 34-year-old CEO of Chinese startup company Moonshot AI, which just debuted its latest artificial intelligence product, Kimi K3. Kimi K3 has been touted as China’s closest approach to the power of top American AI systems, a surprising leap in technology from an upstart young company. Yang was born in Guangdong, China, and…

Multiple reports citing anonymous officials on Wednesday claimed that the administration of President Donald Trump is in varying stages of approving a deal to share nuclear technology with Saudi Arabia. The Saudi news agency Al-Arabiya reported on various of these claims in American establishment media, including a report by the Wall Street Journal that Trump had already formally approved a nuclear agreement with the country and one by Reuters stating that the Trump administration was planning to seeking congressional approval for the deal. The White House at press time has not commented on the reports, nor has the Saudi government. If…

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky spoke Wednesday with President Donald Trump’s envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner about how to resume diplomatic efforts to end Russia’s war against Ukraine, according to a report Wednesday. Axios correspondent Barak Ravid said the two sides talked through ways to get negotiations moving again. He cited a source who knew about the call. Zelensky himself confirmed it hours later on X and made a point of saying Ukraine wants peace. Zelensky framed the call as an effort to breathe life back into the peace process. “It was a good, important conversation on how to reinvigorate…

Senate Commerce Chair Ted Cruz said in an interview Thursday he is looking to take up legislation to address the “catastrophic risk” posed by artificial intelligence — increasingly top of mind after a major OpenAI security incident this week. It’s a first glimpse at the types of bills that could be on the agenda for a big markup of AI and kids’ online safety measures the Texas Republican plans to hold the first week of August, and about which he has been largely secretive. “Look, it’s deeply concerning, and there are undoubted risks and catastrophic risks that that AI potentially…
