Millions of new files relating to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein have been released by the US Department of Justice, the largest number of documents shared by the government since a law mandated their release last year. Three million pages, 180,000 images and 2,000 videos were posted publicly on Friday. The release came six weeks after the department missed a legal deadline signed into law by President Donald Trump that mandated all Epstein-related documents be shared with the public. "Today's release marks the end of a very comprehensive document identification and review process to ensure transparency to the American people and compliance," Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said.

Just after takeoff at 10:06 a.m., the report says a rear passenger commented that the left engine was producing more power than the right and indicated there may have been a faulty gauge. The pilot continued, however. About 10:11, airplane control was transferred to the right-seat passenger, at an altitude of about 4,500 feet msl. At 10:14, the rear passenger made a query to the pilot regarding power to the "alternator." The pilot made a comment indicating that was the "problem;" however, did not specify what the "problem" was or what actions were taken to correct it. Audio indicated the right-seat passenger visually acquired the runway and provided directions to the pilot as to where the runway was. About 10:15, the pilot made comments which indicated he had acquired the runway. After the plane aligned with the runway, the airplane continued to descend to 942 feet msl until the CVR audio and GPS data ended at 10:15:23. Read more

"Democrats seem to be having this debate about whether or not Mayor Mamdani is a socialist or a democratic socialist. Let me settle it. He's a straight-up communist. How do I know this? Well, I'm reading between the lines when one of his major advisers says, 'Elect more communists.'" Read more

A strange thing has happened to U.S. fertility patterns in recent decades. In the 1970s, there was little to no partisan difference in birthrates. This was an era when the total fertility rate was still hovering around the magic replacement level of 2.1"that is, the average woman could be expected to have 2.1 children across her lifetime, keeping the size of the population stable. The U.S. total fertility rate plummeted to a new low of 1.63 in 2024. A partisan fertility gap has emerged and seems to be growing. Conservatives have more children than liberals. They also are more likely to marry and marry younger. While Democrats are increasingly the party of the childless, Republicans are increasingly the party of parents.

At a time when the country's political parties are moving ever further to the extremes, and hysteria marks much of our discourse, Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman is a breath of fresh air. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know. He's a Democrat. But in the past few years, Fetterman has defied current political trends and prioritized what he thinks is best for the country ahead of partisan tribalism. Take, for instance, his nuanced stance on what's going on in Minneapolis and the Trump administration's efforts to deport illegal aliens. After two American citizens were killed this month by federal immigration officers, the U.S. senator has demanded consequences.


President Donald Trump, his two eldest sons and his family business sued the Internal Revenue Service and the U.S. Treasury Department over alleged leaks of their confidential tax information.


"Today, we remember and honor the lives of Ibrahima Barry, Mamadou Tanou Barry, Khaled Belkacemi, Abdelkrim Hassane, Azzeddine Soufiane, and Aboubaker Thabti, who were brutally murdered in the Islamophobic attack at the Centre culturel islamique de Quebec in Sainte-Foy, which also left 19 people injured. The horror of that day remains a solemn reminder of the pervasiveness of Islamophobia and the devastating consequences of hatred. Our government stands with the Muslim community against hate and remains steadfast in our commitment to build a country where Canadians of all faiths can thrive."
