On Thursday, USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins announced The Great American Cotton Plan, an effort to help revitalize the nation's cotton-producing industry to move Americans back toward wearing natural fibers as opposed to plastic materials and other pontially toxic fibers. Launched as a cornerstone of the plan to restore domestic textile manufacturing, the “Plant Not Plastic” initiative urges American consumers to choose products made with natural, U.S.-grown cotton over petroleum-based synthetics like polyester.

Spencer Pratt is now Karen Bass’ biggest headache. With a margin of error of plus or minus 4.9 percentage points, the race remains statistically tight. One of the more notable findings is Pratt’s strength among Hispanic voters, where he leads the field with 33% support, compared to 24% for Bass and 21% for Raman. But beneath the numbers lies a much bigger warning sign for City Hall. Voters appear deeply dissatisfied not only with the direction of Los Angeles but also with nearly every major candidate seeking to lead it. A bombshell California Post poll conducted with McLaughlin & Associates shows—

His grandfather ruled Cuba with an iron fist, but now top US officials have identified the shadowy Castro relative known as “The Crab” — for his six-fingered hand — as their go-to guy in critical negotiations. Raúl Guillermo Rodriguez Castro is the influential eldest grandson of ex-dictator and 94-year-old Raul Castro, who was indicted for murder in Miami on May 23 in connection with the 1996 shoot-down of two planes operated by Brothers to the Rescue.The younger Castro oversees his grandfather’s security, which grants him sway in a government where experts say Raul Castro still has considerable authority despite stepping back as president in 2018 and relinquishing official duties in 2021.

Mehek Cooke, senior national security and legal analyst for the Daily Signal, said that recent anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement protests in New Jersey are part of a broader pattern of organized agitation aimed at undermining law enforcement and President Donald Trump’s immigration agenda. Appearing Thursday on NewsNation’s “Katie Pavlich Tonight,” Cooke responded to video of protesters outside an immigrant detention facility who blocked a trucker’s exit route. She said the confrontation revealed the growing divide between political activists and hardworking Americans.

A convicted murderer and alleged gang member was being paid by Los Angeles taxpayers to patrol neighborhoods as a “peace ambassador” until federal authorities arrested him Friday morning. Now, city leaders are facing questions about how he got the job in the first place. Michael Angel Alvarez, 41, aka “Diablo,” was arrested on Friday during a traffic stop for possession of body armor by a violent felon, a crime punishable by up to five years in prison. Alvarez was being paid by Los Angeles city tax dollars to patrol as a “peace ambassador,” according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Central District of California.

A host of deep blue states are quietly pulling back from their generous programs of “free” healthcare to migrants as federal dollars dry up and their budgets continue to spiral into the red. With the Trump administration beginning to close the spigot of billions in federal aid that many states lavishly spent caring for illegal migrants, sates including California, Colorado, Illinois, New York, Oregon Washington, and the District of Columbia are finding that they cannot afford to replace the chocked off federal dollars with their own state budget dollars. This reality setting in has caused state officials to begin scaling back their freebies —

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) recently arrested Alina Rosales Aguirreurreta, daughter of General Ulises Rosales del Toro, a longtime key figure of the communist Castro regime. ICE sources confirmed to Martí Noticias on Tuesday that Rosales Aguirreurreta, who is a doctor according to past statements from her family, was arrested in Florida. Her 84-year-old father, General Rosales del Toro, is widely described as part of the Cuban regime’s “old guard.” While keeping a relatively low profile from the public,

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has reportedly launched a criminal investigation into E. Jean Carroll, who accused President Trump of sexual assault, according to multiple reports. CNN was the first to report Wednesday night that the DOJ’s probe focuses on whether Carroll committed perjury while speaking at a deposition as part of her two civil lawsuits against Trump. The Hill has reached out to the DOJ for comment. Prosecutors are reportedly focused on Carroll telling then-Trump attorney Alina Habba in a 2022 deposition that she received no outside funding for the lawsuit. Two weeks before the trial, though, Carroll’s attorneys informed the judge and Trump’s legal team that billionaire —

A Google software engineer was accused Wednesday of using confidential company information to make over $1.2 million on Polymarket in the second significant criminal case tied to trades on the prediction market platform. Michele Spagnulo, 36, an Italian citizen living in Switzerland, is charged with one count each of commodities fraud, wire fraud and money laundering, according to a federal complaint unsealed in New York City. Prosecutors accuse Spagnulo of placing a series of bets from October to December based on internal Google search data that tracked user searches.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday handed the Trump administration a win by reversing a lower court ruling against a requirement that immigration judges seek official approval before giving speeches in their official capacities. The 4th Circuit Court of Appeals last year intervened in light of President Donald Trump's firing of several agency heads responsible for hearing complaints, Reuters reported. The policy stems from the Executive Office for Immigration Review, which oversees roughly 750 immigration judges. The justices did not rule on the merits of the case, but merely reversed the lower court decision and sent it back for additional proceedings.

I’ve said it in pieces on my show for several weeks now: between Memorial Day and July 4. That is the window. That is the calendar stretch in 2026 when President Trump needs to land a clear and convincing win on Iran. Not a slogan. Not a “framework.” Not a diplomat’s sentence with nine clauses and no verbs. A win ordinary Americans can understand.Because November is coming. And politics, unlike cable news, does not wait around for experts to finish explaining why voters should ignore what they feel in their wallets.

After the Ukrainian attack targeting a college dorm that killed 21 students, mostly young women, the Russians vowed ‘strategic’ attacks against decision-making centers in the capital, Kiev. After Saturday (23), when Mosco unleashed 90 missiles and 600 drones against Kiev, we learned that the attack was just the beginning. After the Foreign Ministry made a general warning for diplomatic missions to leave the city, and for citizens to avoid Military, Industrial, and Government Sites, we learned today (26) that a more specific warning was transmitted personally to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
