Charlie Kirk bullet analysis finds no conclusive link to rifle found near scene | Charlie Kirk shooting

An analysis from the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosive (ATF) could not conclusively connect a bullet fragment recovered during Charlie Kirk’s autopsy to the rifle found near the scene of the rightwing political activist’s killing – and the FBI is running additional tests, lawyers for Kirk’s accused murderer said in recent court filings.

The oil island that could break Iran

One of President Donald Trump’s most potent moves for crippling the Iranian regime may involve seizing a tiny island where gazelles run free near oil infrastructure. The 5-mile strip of land known as Kharg Island is home to Iran’s most important oil facility, an export terminal in the Persian Gulf that handles up to 90 percent of the nation’s crude. It’s a cornerstone of Iran’s economy and a major source of revenue for the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, a pillar of the regime that experts say could put down the kind of public uprising that Trump has called for. If Trump

A Bill Is Being Drafted in the U.S. That Would Allow Miners to Sell Bitcoin to the Government – Major Development

US Senator Cynthia Lummis is preparing to introduce a bipartisan “Mined in America Act” bill that would incentivize Bitcoin mining; under the plan, miners would be able to sell Bitcoin to the government in exchange for tax benefits (CGT exemption).

The plan also envisions a model where miners can benefit from capital gains tax (CGT) advantages if they sell their Bitcoin directly to the government. This approach aims to both incentivize mining and increase the government’s strategic Bitcoin

John Fetterman faces backlash from Democrats for Senate votes

March 28, 2026, 4:59 a.m. ET Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman has faced criticism from his Democratic constituents for breaking with the party on several key issues. Fetterman, who once campaigned against centrist Democrats, has seen his favorability rise among Republicans while falling with Democrats.

Throughout his 2022 campaign for U.S. Senate, John Fetterman often took to social media to needle the few centrist Senate Democrats with histories of breaking party ranks. Then Pennsylvania’s lieutenant
