The most important healthcare document released this year wasn’t another regulation, another inspector general report, or another congressional hearing. It was a list of more than 500 hospitals spread across 45 states and the District of Columbia, which the Trump administration identified as failing to comply with the hospital price transparency rule.

Over three consecutive days this month, Romanian F-16s shot down three drones that had entered the country’s airspace — the first such engagements over Romanian territory. One appears to have been an Iranian-designed Shahed of the kind Russia uses against Ukraine. Bucharest summoned Moscow’s ambassador and acted under NATO’s air-policing command. The episode answered the […]
The stream that coursed over Maily Kocinski’s Wisconsin family farm for 47 years dried up after construction began on Meta’s AI data center in nearby Beaver Dam. When it returned, it ran murky white.

HARGEISA, Somalia — The desire to embrace cause-and-effect rationality to blame President Donald Trump for Iran’s ongoing aggression gets two things wrong. First, the notion that the Islamic Republic would remain cautious and restrained had the United States and Israel not killed supreme leader Ali Khamenei on the first day of Operation Epic Fury ignores […]
The Senate Judiciary Committee is taking up Todd Blanche‘s nomination to be attorney general of the United States. Having served as lawyers on that committee as well as for two different attorneys general appointed by President Donald Trump, we agree that he is exceptionally well-qualified to lead the Department of Justice. Blanche should be voted […]
Senate Judiciary Committee members will deliberate and vote on Thursday on acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, President Donald Trump’s nominee for the permanent position.

President Donald Trump and a who’s who of political leaders returned Tuesday to the Cathedral Church of St. Peter and St. Paul, better known as the National Cathedral, for the funeral of the late Sen.
