Capital Factory founder and Austin tech leader Joshua Baer has been identified as the person killed in a business jet crash along a highway in Laredo, Texas, on Tuesday night. The plane was carrying six people when it crashed on Loop 20 in Laredo, Texas, shortly after 10 p.m., according to Jose Baeza, an investigator with the Laredo Police Department. The Cessna Citation Latitude twin jet departed Tuesday evening from the Mexican resort city of San José del Cabo and was bound for Austin, Texas, the Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement.

Reliable electricity is always important, but especially on the hottest days of summer. That’s why the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is still relying on natural gas and coal to secure electricity grids. On June 11, the DOE issued an order under Federal Power Act Section 202(c) related to Duke Energy Carolinas, LLC (“DEC”) and Duke Energy Progress, LLC (“DEP”), which together are known as Duke Energy. The order instructs the energy company to operate certain units at maximum capacity, even if that would violate rules about air quality or other standards established at the federal, state, or local levels.

Watching Greg Gutfeld and Jesse Watters take turns dismantling Jessica Tarlov's talking points on The Five is one of my not-so-guilty pleasures. But Tuesday delivered something even better: Vice President JD Vance stepped into the ring himself, and within seconds, he exposed a glaring blind spot in how the left thinks about loving your own country. Tarlov tried to explain away a brutal new NBC News poll on American patriotism by chalking it up to simple political math. "Some of it is obviously partisan," she said, arguing that pride in the country naturally dips "when your party's out of power." "I don't think that's right," Vance said.

As I write this only 57% of the vote has been tallied in the Georgia GOP Senate runoff between Mike Collins and Derek Dooley. As Ed pointed out earlier, Collins was endorsed by Trump while Dooley was endorsed by Gov. Kemp. At the moment, Collins has a decent lead which seems to be growing as more rural votes come in. In any case, Decision Desk has seen enough. They called the race for Collins shortly after 8 pm. There are once again a bunch of stories about whether or not Trump's endorsements have any impact on these races, but so far the answer seems to be yes.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) claimed Monday that President Donald Trump directed the Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate him and his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, but multiple reporters say the federal probe predates Trump’s return to office. In a video posted on X, the Democrat governor said federal investigators have contacted individuals connected to his family, including former staff members and longtime acquaintances. Newsom argued that investigators were searching for evidence of wrongdoing rather than pursuing an established case.

Democrats think they're going to cruise to victory in the 2026 midterms in the race for the House of Representatives. But they're not going to be happy with the data that CNN senior data analyst Harry Enten had to offer up on Monday as we get closer to the midterms. It's historically common for the party out of power - in this case, the Democrats - to be leading in the polling numbers, and they are. But the numbers may not be enough for them, and the warning signs are clear, as Enten explained.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom made the world's craziest possible presidential campaign announcement Monday when he dropped a five-minute video saying he's under investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice, claiming that the investigation is politically motivated because he's considering running for president. Newsom doesn't say exactly what the investigation is allegedly about, but says that it's directed at his wife and references a grand jury: "In recent days, federal agents have knocked on the doors of family friends and former employees, not because they found a crime, because they're simply trying to find one. They're demanding records. They're abusing the grand jury

California Republican gubernatorial candidate Steve Hilton is releasing one shot after another at the disastrous Democrat administration in the state, exposing just how terrible woke policies are for ordinary Californians. Hilton shocked many people when he came out of the primary election leading all the Democrats, and even after a week of counting finally and allegedly edged Democrat Xavier Becerra ahead, it was still clear that Hilton had outperformed what many Democrats expected in the solidly blue state. Hilton is wasting no time celebrating, however, hitting the campaign trail every day to talk about issues that will appeal to Californians across

Democrat George Conway is threatening to put President Donald Trump “away for good” if he wins his bid for the U.S. House of Representatives in New York’s 12th Congressional District. The Never Trumper lawyer in a video Monday said his fight against the president has only begun, Fox News reported. “Hi Donald, it’s me. George Conway. I cost you $88 * million dollars and I’ve only just gotten started. I know you like putting your name on everything from your plane, to the Kennedy Center… sorry about that,” he said. “But the only thing your name is going to be left on when I’m done with you is the orange

The Chinese Foreign Ministry announced on Monday that it “welcomed” the announcement the day prior that Iran and America had come to an agreement to end active hostilities with a memorandum of understanding expected to be signed in Switzerland on Friday. President Donald Trump announced on Sunday that, after weeks of negotiations, Iran and America had agreed to terms that would result in the end of the current ceasefire and the situation in the Strait of Hormuz, where Iran is engaging in violent piracy

The White House said Monday that the United States has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Iran that provides for reopening the Strait of Hormuz, lifting the United States naval blockade, and beginning a new phase of negotiations over Tehran’s nuclear program, sanctions relief, frozen assets, and regional security. A senior American official said, “We have now signed a memorandum of understanding with Iran,” adding that President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf signed the document. The official said the agreement creates “a structure

Iranian military leaders celebrated the news on Monday that the country had agreed to the terms of a memorandum of understanding with the United States to end the current conflict, suggesting that the agreement represented “defeat and surrender” for America. The message from the Iranian armed forces command center, the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, was markedly more belligerent and undiplomatic than the confirmation statements from Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and other leaders in the civilian wing
