Abdul El-Sayed has won the Michigan Democratic Senate Primary — beating back $30 million in AIPAC spending and endorsements from top Democrats. So the next question is: Can El-Sayed beat Republican former Rep. Mike Rogers?

Warnings from allied/foreign intelligence services reached German authorities. Thumann is under increased protection; the investigation is classified. Sources also mention a possible threat to another senior German defense-industry executive.

In the first half of 2026, Ukraine received three times fewer air defense missiles compared to the previous year, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said following a meeting with military leaders. Supplies of anti-ballistic missiles decreased, even though Ukraine’s partners have them available, he said

Worse yet, amplifying what is “new” when civilian casualties occur, or are alleged to have occurred, in russia often comes at the cost of obscuring the reality of who invaded whom

The word “news” is rooted in what is new Terrorussia murders Ukrainian children every other night; each new atrocity struggles to command sustained attention But the genocidal consistency of russian aggression cannot be allowed to disappear from the headlines, whether through omission or fatigue.
