In recent days, Netanyahu has held consultations with senior Likud officials and assigned tasks to ministers and political partners. The effort has focused on the haredi leadership, attempts to persuade MKs from the anti-Netanyahu bloc not to support the government, and exploring ways to bring Avigd...

This marks the automaker’s fourth assembly facility in the Buckeye State and its first major new U.S. assembly plant since 2008.

Representative Thomas Massie has introduced eight articles of impeachment against Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, calling for a House vote on the measure this week. On Monday, Massie (R-Ky.) accused Hegseth of high crimes and misdemeanors stemming from unauthorized military actions in Iran, Yemen and Venezuela. The 34-page impeachment resolution  maintained that Hegseth “directed and caused” U.S. armed forces “to be introduced into hostilities against the Islamic Republic of Iran” without congressional authorization, a declaration of war, or a qualifying national emergency. “Secretary Hegseth knowingly executed and implemented unlawful orders to initiate war against a foreign nation notwithstanding the absence of congressional authorization, an attack upon the United States giving rise to the national emergency contemplated by law, or an imminent threat requiring immediate defensive action,” the resolution states.   “Wherefore, Secretary of Defense Peter Hegseth, by such conduc...

During a hearing in a Provo, Utah courtroom on Monday, Judge Tony Graf scheduled jury selection to begin on June 21, 2028. Robinson is alleged to have fatally shot Kirk in the neck during a speaking event at Utah Valley University (UVU) in September 2025. Kirk is survived by his two young children and his widow, Erika Kirk, who became CEO of the TPUSA following her husband’s assassination. Robinson’s attorneys argued for delaying a trial until 2029, citing the extensive time needed to prepare a capital defense. However prosecutors — who estimated that the trial would last 17 weeks — indicated they would be prepared to go to trial as early as October of next year, though they suggested a January 2028 start date to avoid holiday interruptions. Jeffrey Neiman, an attorney representing Erika, ...
