The Trump administration agreed to stop pursuing a breakup of Live Nation and Ticketmaster as part of a settlement that blindsided state attorneys general in the middle of a trial. Attorneys general from 27 states and the District of Columbia are continuing to pursue the case without the US government, at least for now.

Iran has "no navy, no communications, they've got no air force. Their missiles are down to a scatter. Their drones are being blown up all over the place, including their manufacturing of drones," Trump said, describing Iran's military degradation following US military strikes.

Not that long ago, restaurant chains like Cava, Chipotle and Sweetgreen had lines streaming out of their doors at lunchtime. But last year, traffic and sales at many of them softened considerably, and their stock prices plunged. Still, don't look for this restaurant segment to slash menu prices any time soon. It's simply not part of its DNA, some restaurant analysts say.

Video footage that began to circulate online Sunday shows what appears to be a U.S. Tomahawk missile striking in the vicinity of an elementary school next to an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) naval complex, according to eight munitions experts. The video, which was verified by The Washington Post, is the latest indication of likely U.S. involvement in the attack on Feb. 28 that killed dozens of children in the southern Iranian city of Minab.

More than 4,000 people have been arrested in Minneapolis since the start of Operation Metro Surge in December, and federal judges and civil rights lawyers say many of those detentions broke the law. The Washington Post reviewed nearly 70 cases in which U.S. District Judge Patrick J. Schiltz ruled that the Trump administration had violated court orders.

The Air Accident Investigation Bureau said in a statement that a seabed search conducted by marine robotics company Ocean Infinity between March 2025 and January 2026 surveyed thousands of square kilometers of ocean floor but has not produced any confirmed findings of the aircraft wreckage.

Sunday's attack brought the death toll to at least 157 people since the Trump administration began targeting those it calls "narcoterrorists" in small vessels in early September. As with most of the military's statements on the more than 40 known strikes in the Eastern Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea, U.S. Southern Command said it targeted alleged drug traffickers along known smuggling routes.

The ruling came from the NCAA Division I Committee on Infractions following a lengthy enforcement review triggered by irregular betting patterns linked to several Aggies games during the 2024-25 season. Because investigators were unable to obtain key records or interviews, the committee said it could not determine whether actual wagering violations occurred. Even so, the refusal to participate in the investigation itself was treated as a major rules violation.

A dedicated NYPD officer and decorated Army veteran, he spent his career protecting others. Major Davius was a devoted husband and father. I personally conveyed my deepest condolences to his wife and will keep his family, colleagues, and all who knew him in my thoughts.

During the search, investigators discovered assault rifles hidden behind a false wall inside a basement closet, police said. First Squad detectives responded to the scene and recovered eight assault rifles, 10 semi-automatic handguns, and four revolvers, along with multiple ammunition feeding devices, police said.

Major Davius dedicated his life to serving others - as a member of the U.S. Army National Guard, an NYPD officer, and previously as an FDNY paramedic. His commitment to protecting and helping others, both here at home and while serving our nation overseas, is a true testament to his character and courage.

Petrol and diesel prices have hit their highest in nearly 20 months this week, latest data shows, increasing by between 4.68p and 8.59p per litre since Saturday 28 February, when the US launched strikes on Iran. On average, drivers can now expect 137.51p per litre of unleaded petrol, and 150.97p per litre of diesel, at the pump.

Tunsil's production was nothing short of elite. His pass-blocking was as advertised, providing exceptional protection in front of either Jayden Daniels or Marcus Mariota. The Ole Miss product's run-blocking was dominant, a supposed weakness in his game. While the penalty numbers were a little too high, the edge force brought All-Pro-caliber consistency to the table in a lost season.

They're frozen in their grief. They have a real sense of helplessness. There's no clear resolution from it. We know from research that ambiguous loss is the most psychologically painful kind of loss because of that.

With time, as his research led to police intervention, he caught the attention of the city's gangs. In November 2024, during a period of escalating violence in the Haitian capital, gang members entered the compound where Gensley lived. They burned the radio station, my home and many other things in the area. They even killed his dog.

Severe weather struck Major County last night and tragically claimed the lives of a mother and daughter. Our thoughts are with those who have lost family, friends, and property during this incident.

Sommers was arrested Thursday in Pittsfield, where authorities say he had been living under the victim's identity at Soldier On, a facility that provides transitional housing for military veterans. According to charging documents, Sommers allegedly began impersonating a real U.S. Army veteran as early as 1994. That veteran served honorably in the Army from 1979 to 1982.

At that point, I hadn't heard the term "reverse culture shock" - a sense of disorientation you feel when returning to your country after a long stay abroad - but I now know this is what I experienced when I got back to India. Busy work mornings in New York were replaced by dull ones in India for the first few weeks while I waited to start my new job.
