Five people were killed and 44 others were injured when a non-English speaking bus driver from Staten Island smashed into stopped traffic along I-95 in Virginia on Friday morning, according to Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy.

If you cannot read, write, comprehend or speak English what the hell are you doing here? A bike, roller skates or perhaps a skateboard are the only items you should be allowed to ride on. For God's sake not driving a bus full of people. Bodies need to be dragged through the court system letting everyone know that if you are involved at any level of giving these people a license you are responsible for some degree of the mayhem. Five dead, 44 injured because some idiot stamped approved on his license application. And we still have those who don't see this as a problem.

Seeing as this affects interstate commerce it would be simple for Trump to deal with using an executive order. All CDL licenses issued by blue states are subject to verification with regard to citizenship and the ability to speak and understand English

Yeah, first thing I thought of when I eard about this on the news yesterday was foreign non-English speaking driver, although I expected the driver to be named Singh. Now charge Katy Hochul with being an accessory to the crime.

In normal times, when the highway is buzzing along and the Dingdong Brigade is causing chaos i trust 3 drivers: big rigs, busses, and tattooed Harley riders (the grubbier the better). These folks are professional safe drivers. I could trust them in the lane next to me. Now I have to fear those 1st 2 vehicles? Please fix this Mr. President.

America’s political and cultural divisions are increasingly finding their way into the nation’s courtrooms. From bitter jury-room disputes to unusually public clashes among Supreme Court justices, the judiciary – long considered the most restrained and deliberate of America’s institutions – is beginning to reflect the same polarization reshaping much of American public life. Courts were once the federal branch of government least likely to generate headlines for hot tempers or personal attacks. Increasingly, they are starting to look like everything else. A Warning Sign From the Jury Box A recent Wall Street Journal report by Corinne Ramey offers a striking introduction to the problem.

A bill that would ban ingredients used in many of New Jersey’s pizzas, along with other food additives, is making its way through the Legislature and drawing pushback from the food industry. The measure, S3785, would prohibit the use of certain ingredients based on their classification as potential carcinogens. Among them is potassium bromate, a dough-strengthening agent used in some commercial bread and pizza doughs, though not all pizzerias rely on it. The bill also takes aim at a range of additives and food dyes, and includes restrictions on what can be served in school lunches in an effort to improve children’s health.

Independent investigator Muckraker has blown the lid off a sophisticated, long-running Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) and charity fraud operation in Lawrence, Massachusetts. Dominican immigrants have been openly buying groceries with food stamps (EBT/SNAP cards) or taking free food from charities and food banks, loading it into shipping barrels, and sending it straight to the Dominican Republic — where it gets resold for profit in local bodegas. The pipeline runs from Massachusetts corner stores, through shipping hubs in New York, all the way to Santo Domingo.

The United States has secured long-term access to one of the world's largest untapped rare earth deposits, a move that could reduce its future dependence on mineral-rich African nations as Washington races to build a critical minerals supply chain independent of China. REalloys, a Florida-based rare earth materials company, has signed a 15-year offtake agreement with Critical Metals Corp. covering 15% of Phase 1 production from the Tanbreez project in southern Greenland. The deposit is among the world's largest known sources of heavy rare earth elements, including dysprosium and terbium, two minerals essential for fighter jets, missile systems, radar platforms, drones and other advanced defence technologies.

Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner often touts his role as harbormaster of Sullivan, Maine, as proof of his "working class" bona fides, saying on his campaign website that he "serves the town of Sullivan as Harbormaster" and claiming during a February podcast interview that he's "been the harbormaster for the last two years." He actually held the role for roughly 18 months before quitting to launch his Senate campaign—and it was largely a "clerical" one, according to local records and people familiar with the position. Platner's predecessor as Sullivan harbormaster resigned in February 2022, the records show, and the town got by without one for more than a year.
