The Pentagon is creating a new four-star command to oversee the military’s push into autonomous warfare, as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says the technology is advancing faster than the military’s acquisition system can keep up.The Autonomous Warfare Command, or AutoWarCom, will have service-like authorities and is intended to scale autonomous and robotic capabilities across the military, Hegseth said during his State of the Force address at Marine Corps Base Quantico, Virginia, on Wednesday.Hegseth said the new command is intended to address an acquisition system that cannot keep pace with the speed of technological change on the battlefield.“The pace of war is changing faster than the process to support it,” Hegseth said.The announcement comes three months after Hegseth consolidated the Defense Department’s unmanned and autonomous systems under a new Direct Reporting Portfolio Manager for Unmanned Systems, or DRPM-UxS. The office reports directly to Deputy Secretary of Defense Steven Feinberg and was established to oversee the development, procurement, fielding and sustainment of unmanned and autonomous systems across the department.The DRPM-UxS also assumed oversight of existing efforts, including Joint Interagency Task Force 401, the Defense Innovation Unit and the Defense Autonomous Warfare Group.During his Wednesday address, Hegseth also announced Project Agincourt, an interim…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Talk show host Jon Stewart suggested that even if Democrats win a massive victory in the midterms, a future Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and a future Speaker of the House Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., will turn out to be massive disappointments.Democrats were initially in disarray after President Donald Trump’s victory against then-Vice President Kamala Harris in November. However, as Trump’s base fractured amid the Iran war and the affordability crisis that followed, Democrats are expected to win a historic victory in this November’s midterms.On Wednesday, Stewart was asked a humorous question on his podcast about whether the downside of a Democratic midterm victory will be Schumer and Jeffries getting more “airtime.””Look, I think what’s going to happen is they’re going to have to f—ing do something, they’re going to have to deliver,” he said. “They’re not going to be able — it will not be sufficient to make their entire personalities opposition to whatever Trump politics are; they’re going to have to have a prescription for rebalancing this economy in a smart and urgent way.”JOHNSON DOWNPLAYS GOP’S MIDTERM WOES AS DEMOCRATS EYE HOUSE TAKEOVER: ‘I AM VERY BULLISH’ “I am not…

This report contains discussion of suicide. Troops, veterans and family members experiencing suicidal thoughts can call the 24-hour Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988 and dial 1, text 838255 or visit VeteransCrisisLine.net.The news of eight attempted suicides across the USS Abraham Lincoln strike group generated fresh heartache and outrage for U.S. Navy families of sailors assigned to Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma City, including Alicia Kelsey.Kelsey’s son, Thatcher Rupert, a 20-year-old sailor assigned to Fleet Air Reconnaissance Squadron 3 — the “Ironmen” — struggled with depression and was hospitalized twice in the months leading to his death in December. On Dec. 9, 2025, Rupert sought emergency mental health care at the 72nd Medical Group clinic. There, he was told he would be sent to an off-base inpatient facility where he previously received suboptimal care, his mother said.Left alone while he waited for further instructions on the transfer, Rupert bolted from the clinic, headed toward Interstate 35 and jumped off an overpass. The suicide was the seventh in the Navy’s Strategic Communications Wing 1 and its subordinate squadrons since March 2025. Rupert’s death drew a massive response from Navy leadership and the attention of Democrat Richard Blumenthal, the senior senator…

While it shares a name with a shapeshifting alien race from Doctor Who, the incoming Civivi Zygon seems much more benign – especially if you like fidget folders. This knife comes in some cool material configs and wears its crossbar lock on the spine. A flick of a thumbstud (or wrist in conjunction with the crossbar lock; more below) will send the Zygon’s handsome drop point blade into the open position. It’s broad and flat ground, measuring 3.24 inches and thus fills the all-purpose EDC role with aplomb, including, perhaps, more demanding “EDC+” work. The blade steel is Nitro-V, a steel that has proven itself over the years to be a rock-solid formula – well, maybe not as solid as an actual rock, but hardy, resilient to rust and other kinds of catastrophic damage, and responsive to sharpening. The blue glow-in-the-dark model is a standout too The handle is comprised of straight lines, with a large trapezoidal cutout beneath the guard to catch the first two fingers and help users locate their grip. We mentioned the material options, and indeed there are interesting ones offered here: the natural G-10 variant is blue glow-in-the-dark, the black G-10 model sports a stylish…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Louisiana Republican Attorney General Liz Murrill is escalating her fight against abortion pills entering states that ban abortions through two lawsuits — one targeting the providers accused of distributing the drugs and another challenging the blue-state laws shielding them from prosecution.Murrill, along with Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall and Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin, sued New York, California and Massachusetts at the Supreme Court on Wednesday, alleging their shield laws block cooperation with investigations into abortion-pill providers. The attorneys general also filed a separate lawsuit in Louisiana against more than 30 people and organizations accused of advertising, prescribing, dispensing or shipping abortion pills into their states.”This is drug dealing and it’s illegal,” Murrill told Fox News Digital. “And we’re going to continue to do everything that we can to enforce the laws in our states.”The two lawsuits, filed Wednesday, are the latest move in a widening state-by-state fight over abortion. That conflict has grown since the Supreme Court’s 2022 ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which struck down Roe v. Wade and gave elected officials the power to set abortion policy in their states.HAWLEY SENDS CRIMINAL REFERRAL OF ‘LEFT-WING DARK-MONEY’…

The first ship in Carrier Strike Group 3 returned to Hawaii on Monday after a 301-day deployment marred by mental health concerns and declining morale aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln, the strike group’s flagship. The destroyer USS Frank E. Petersen Jr. left Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam on Dec. 1, spending over 106 days without a scheduled port call as it operated in the South China Sea in January before sailing to the Arabian Sea in support of U.S. Navy operations during Operation Epic Fury. “This deployment challenged us in many ways and required every sailor to perform at their very best,” said Capt. Casey Mahon, commanding officer of the Frank E. Petersen Jr. “Despite the pressures and complexities of our missions, the crew rose to the occasion every time, ensuring the safety, security, and strategic interests of our nation. Most importantly, the crew never gave up on the ship and never gave up on their shipmates.”Under Mahon, the Integrated Air and Missile Defense commander for the Abraham Lincoln strike group, the Frank E.
