Nine months into the fiscal year, the federal government is more than $1.3 trillion in the red.
Just paying interest on accumulated federal debt has cost more than $1 trillion in the last nine months — more than nearly any other single government program except Social Security.
The Treasury Department has paid more than $80 billion in refunds for tariffs that were collected illegally after the Supreme Court struck them down.
An ICE officer shot and killed a motorist in Biddeford, Maine — but the victim wasn't even the person named on the warrant. Sen. Angus King got that information directly from Homeland Security Secretary Mark Wayne Mullen, raising urgent questions about accountability.
Biddeford, Maine is a city of just over 20,000 people with deep immigrant roots — and within hours of the ICE shooting, hundreds of protesters took to the streets. A community that felt insulated from this kind of violence suddenly found itself at the center of a national crisis.
The Supreme Court struck down the president's sweeping import taxes, and now the government is footing an $80 billion refund bill. While the administration scrambles to impose new tariffs, the fiscal fallout from the old ones is still being tallied.
Nine months into the fiscal year, the U.S. is more than $1.3 trillion in the red — and the interest bill alone has already surpassed $1 trillion. That single line item now costs more than virtually every government program except Social Security.
Marco Rubio is going after the International Criminal Court — not just opposing it, but actively working to tear it down. He says the ICC wages war on the U.S. through law, not weapons, and that American service members could face prosecution. Critics note the court was built precisely for countries that refuse accountability.
Sam Neill, the beloved New Zealand actor who made paleontologist Alan Grant a household name in Jurassic Park, has died at 78. His career spanned five decades and crossed every genre — from art-house cinema to prestige TV, including Peaky Blinders.
After a third consecutive night of U.S. military strikes on Iran, Tehran is hitting back hard. Bahrain's missile alert system went off for a third time, and Iran targeted two UAE-linked tankers, killing one person and wounding eight others. The region is on edge.
