NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Artificial intelligence is dramatically lowering the cost of political advertising, allowing campaigns to churn out attack ads, memes and other targeted messages at a pace that would have been prohibitively expensive just a few years ago.In the political ad wars, campaign operatives can now use generative AI to produce in minutes or hours what once required days by a team of writers, voice talent, video shoots and production teams.The shift is turning political creative from an expensive campaign asset into something much more affordable and closer to disposable content, potentially giving candidates and outside groups the ability to flood voters with more messages.While the exact number is difficult to identify, the ad-tracking firm AdImpact had identified 29 campaign ads in federal and gubernatorial contests that disclosed using AI content, as of two weeks ago. Meanwhile, the Wesleyan Media Project, which also counted ads that did not make AI disclosures, has identified at least 164 AI-influenced ads this cycle.HEAD HERE FOR THE LATEST FOX NEWS AI REPORTING AND ANALYSISBut the jury is still out on whether the use of AI for campaign messaging can help produce the ultimate objective: an election victory.”It certainly…

NEW YORK — The United States removed its B-1 bombers from a U.K. air base one week after several men were arrested there on suspicion of preparing terrorist acts, a Pentagon official said on Sunday. A dozen B-1 bombers were stationed at RAF Fairford air base, located northwest of London. The planes had been used for U.S. strikes on Iran. “While operational security precluded us from confirming the movement of our assets and forces in real-time, we can acknowledge now that all US bombers that were deployed to RAF Fairford have re-deployed to their home stations in the United States,” a Pentagon spokesman wrote in an email.Britain has “strong indications” that Iran was involved in a suspected plot targeting the base, Prime Minister Andy ​Burnham said on Wednesday. Iran said accusations linking Tehran to the alleged plan were baseless and summoned the British ambassador in Tehran over the issue. The Wall Street Journal first reported that the aircraft were removed from the base amid security concerns over suspected terror plots against the facility.The British government had allowed the U.S. to use bombers based at Fairford to strike Iranian missile sites that were attacking ships in the Strait of Hormuz.U.S. President…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Erick Erickson, the longtime, ultraconservative Atlanta radio host, just unloaded a screed that whacked both Democrats and Republicans. “Both sides serve up a crap sandwich of a candidate, point across the aisle at the other side’s crap sandwich, and insist you have to eat theirs because the other one is worse.”In keeping with the culinary metaphor, this struck me because I’ve long felt that national politics has increasingly become a stew of hypocrisy. To watch Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders endorse Graham Platner, the exceedingly weird Maine Senate candidate with a Nazi tattoo, was stomach-turning. You just know the liberal wing would have savaged him if he was a Republican. They and other Dems finally jumped off the bandwagon when news emerged that Platner’s former girlfriend alleged that he had raped her. TRUMP TO MEET WITH MAMDANI IN NEW YORK AMID HIGH-STAKES MIDTERM PUSH Republicans were behind North Carolina Rep. Chuck Edwards despite mounting allegations that he had fostered a hostile work environment and engaged in sexual harassment. But then the House ethics committee called for his censure for inappropriate actions toward two female staffers. The congressman showered them with gifts (jewelry totaling over $1,000, designer purses,…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! The U.S. military on Sunday announced a lethal strike on another vessel in the Caribbean carrying alleged narco-traffickers, killing four people on board.The U.S. Southern Command said the vessel was traveling along “established narco-trafficking routes” in the Caribbean. The military shared a video that showed what appeared to be an explosion destroying a moving boat it described as a go-fast vessel.”Under the direction of U.S. Southern Command, Joint Task Force Western Hemisphere executed a lethal, kinetic strike on a go-fast vessel operating along established narco-trafficking routes in the Caribbean,” the military said in a statement.US FORCES OBLITERATE SUSPECTED ‘NARCO-TERRORIST’ VESSEL IN LETHAL EASTERN PACIFIC STRIKE, KILLING 3 Southern Command claimed that intelligence revealed the vessel’s “active involvement in narco-trafficking.” The military did not provide evidence to back up this allegation.”The operation killed four narco-terrorists,” the statement added.This is the latest attack that the Trump administration has argued was launched in an attempt to eliminate alleged narco-terrorists, with the death toll in these strikes carried out since September 2025 sitting at more than 235. The Pentagon has refused to release the identities of those killed in the strikes since last year. It has…

I’ve always made a habit of keeping an eye on the news, and not just because I find it interesting. If some sort of disaster is about to strike, I want to be one of the first to know about it. A lot of people tell themselves that you never really know when a disaster is going to strike. This way, they give themselves permission to stop paying attention and bury their heads in the sand like most people. But the truth is, disasters rarely show up out of nowhere. There’s almost always a series of warning signs. That’s why staying informed is so important. The national news gives you the big picture, covering things like supply chain problems, conflicts overseas, oil refineries going down, major power outages, economic pressures building up, etc. But the local news can be just as important. What’s the state of your regional power grid? Are businesses in your town closing? Is your neighborhood the kind of place where people help each other out? Want to save this post for later?
