White House budget director Russell Vought said on Wednesday he could not estimate the cost of the Iran war, as he defended President Donald Trump’s request for a massive $1.5 trillion annual military budget against bipartisan criticism from U.S. lawmakers who cited the Pentagon’s historic lack of financial accountability.“We’re not ready to come to you with a request. We’re still working on it. We’re working through to figure out what’s needed,” Vought told a hearing of the House of Representatives Budget Committee. “I don’t have a ballpark.”The cost of the war with Iran, which Trump began alongside Israel on February 28, has remained an open question on Capitol Hill. An initial $200 billion request for additional funding for the war met with stiff opposition in Congress last month. Vought appeared before the panel to discuss Trump’s proposed budget for fiscal year 2027, with its $500 billion increase in military spending and 10% reduction for non-defense programs. The request is intended to reflect Republican priorities heading into the November midterm elections, in which Trump’s Republicans hope to retain control over the House of Representatives and the Senate but face growing public concern about the cost of living, energy prices and the…

The U.S. Senate on Wednesday blocked two resolutions that would have stopped the sale of some $450 million in bombs and bulldozers to Israel, as President Donald Trump’s fellow Republicans rallied behind his support for the Jewish state.But support for the resolutions from a large majority of the 47-member Senate Democratic caucus underscored growing frustration within that party about the effect on civilians from Israeli strikes on Gaza, Lebanon and Iran.A decades-long tradition of strong bipartisan support for Israel in the U.S. Congress means resolutions to stop weapons sales are unlikely to pass, but backers hope raising the issue will encourage Israel’s government and U.S. administrations to do more to protect civilians.Supporters of the sales say Israel is an important ally to whom the United States should sell military equipment.Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, an independent who caucuses with Democrats, forced votes on the resolutions, saying the sales violate criteria for foreign assistance in the Foreign Assistance Act and the Arms Export Control Act.The first resolution would have prohibited the $295 million sale of D9R and D9T Caterpillar bulldozers, parts and other support. The vote was 59 to 40 against advancing the measure.Seven Democrats voted with every Republican against advancing…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill spoke about reports NJ Transit tickets from MetLife Stadium to New York Penn Station will cost over $100 on World Cup game days.In a video posted to social media, Sherrill, who took office in January, wanted to tell those attending “exactly where things stand” amid the “recent headlines about transportation costs for World Cup games in New Jersey.””Our administration inherited an agreement where FIFA is providing $0 for transportation to the World Cup — zero. That leaves New Jersey Transit with a $48 million bill to safely get 40,000 fans to and from every game,” Sherrill said in the video.”At the same time, FIFA is making $11 billion off of this World Cup and charging fans up to $10,000 for a single ticket for the final. “I won’t stick New Jersey’s commuters with that tab for years to come — that’s not fair. So here’s the bottom line: FIFA should pay for the rides, but if they don’t, I’m not going to let New Jersey commuters get taken for one.”MetLife Stadium will host eight matches, including the July 19 final. Penn Station will also have severe restrictions…

The U.S. Air Force for the first time utilized the service’s new artificial intelligence wargame system in an event late last month.The department premiered WarMatrix for its inaugural use at the March 27 GE 26 Benchmark Wargame, marking the system’s move from development into operational capacity, according to a Tuesday Air Force release.WarMatrix, described by the force as an “active wargaming environment,” is an AI-powered system that integrates existing models, data and workflows while expediting analysis.The Air Force at the end of 2025 said it was looking for technology capable of producing simulations 10,000 times faster than real time.WarMatrix is a “human-machine teaming system” meant to keep human judgment integral to planning and decision making, according to the release.The use of WarMatrix during the event served as the system’s initial operating concept evaluation, signaling a change in how the Air Force conducts operational analysis and wargaming.“Designed by wargamers for wargamers, WarMatrix provides transparency, auditability and speed, enabling decision-makers to better understand assumptions, outcomes and tradeoffs,” the statement reads.Air Force leaders portray WarMatrix as an evolution in wargaming rather than a replacement, and the release says that the use of WarMatrix provided a more “connected and traceable wargaming process.” It also…

This article was originally published by Willow Tohi at Natural News.  A peer-reviewed study details a rare case of dual blood cancers in a healthy woman following mRNA COVID-19 vaccination, proposing biological mechanisms for a potential link. The authors faced significant publication barriers, with the paper rejected 16 times by 15 journals over two years before final acceptance. Researchers argue the difficulty in publishing findings that challenge the mainstream narrative poses a grave threat to scientific integrity and public knowledge. The study suggests lipid nanoparticles could give vaccine components “unfettered access” to bone marrow, potentially disrupting blood cell formation and immune surveillance. The incident raises urgent questions about censorship in scientific publishing and the completeness of long-term vaccine safety data available to the public. A battle for publication In February 2026, a peer-reviewed journal finally published a case study exploring a potential link between mRNA COVID-19 vaccines and blood cancers. For the authors, however, the two-year struggle to get their research into print—alleging widespread rejection by journals unwilling to challenge the mainstream narrative—may be the more significant story. This episode casts a long shadow over scientific transparency, raising critical questions about what the public truly knows about the long-term effects…

FIRST LADY MELANIA TRUMP: AI COULD IMPROVE TEACHING AND HELP DELIVER A WORLD-CLASS EDUCATION TO OUR CHILDRENRather than relying on perpetual government assistance, Trump said her goal at the university level is to prepare those in foster care to secure entry-level jobs, become financially independent, create new businesses and generate employment opportunities.She also highlighted roadblocks within the current system, noting that only…
