Frequently, wise-sounding aphorisms get misattributed to Albert Einstein. Our favorite genius was genuinely wise in important ways; his later reflections on ethics, pacifism, and the danger of “compromising with the Devil” show real moral depth. But when we think of Einstein, we don’t think, “so wise.” We think, “he was brilliant,” intelligent, supergenius. Over and over, quoters upgrade any clever observation by slapping “Einstein” on it because, in today’s world, intelligence carries far more prestige than wisdom.

Anytime there's a list of anything, there are going to be people who want to view that list for whatever reason. As we are firmly in the 21st century, that list is going to be digital more often than not, and that means the number of people who want to get that data increases exponentially. Especially when it's something like a gun registry. Luckily, federal law bars the federal government from creating a gun registry, though let's be real here. If they change their minds, they'll repeal the law in a heartbeat. It won't stop them.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio helped to act as a mediator in talks between Israel and Lebanon in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday. If they get Lebanon more on board with holding Hezbollah in check, that could incapacitate another avenue of Iranian terror and an organization involved in killing at least hundreds of Americans. As Rubio said, it was about putting a "permanent end to 20 or 30 years of Hezbollah's influence," and the damage they've caused. He helped to get them to meet for the first time in decades. If they can pull that off—neutralizing Iran as a threat or even turning it from an adversary into a partner—

On Monday, the White House released the 2026 Economic Report of the President prepared by the Council of Economic Advisers. It reviews Trump administration policies, including a key chapter on Protecting and Rebuilding the American Dream of Homeownership, which proposed innovative and creative solutions to past issues that led to the current housing crisis. “We’ve got a 10 million home shortfall, and we’re operating like it's 1946 instead of 2026,” Paolo Tiramani, CEO of BOXABL, told Just The News. The Housing Crisis and Its Root Causes The White House report addressed one of the root causes of the crisis,

The new chief watchdog for U.S. spy agencies has opened a review of several "urgent concern" whistle-blower complaints fielded by his predecessor after bombshell documents revealed that intelligence officials kept exculpatory evidence from President Donald Trump's 2019 impeachment proceedings and may have suppressed concerns about Chinese meddling in the 2020 election. Officials told Just the News that Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG) Christopher Fox, who took over the job in October,

United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby suggested a potential merger with American Airlines during a meeting with Trump administration officials, two sources familiar with the discussion said. The conversation, which took place on February 25 at the White House during a scheduled session on the future of Dulles International Airport, has drawn new attention after Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy signaled openness to more airline industry consolidation. Duffy cautioned, however, that any deal would face tough scrutiny to ensure it would not harm competition or raise passenger fares. A combination of the two carriers would create the world’s largest airline by capacity and control nearly half the U.S. domestic market, according to industry data.
