Roughly half of U.S. states now have their own rules for driverless cars, creating a patchwork of regulations. Lawmakers say that uneven oversight, combined with several high-profile incidents, underscores the need for uniform federal guardrails that don't stifle innovation yet ensure public safety. Senators cite safety issues, demand more transparency "We need more honesty from the industry so that there is in fact transparency in everything that they know that the American public should know as well," said Sen. Ed Markey, D-MA.
How it works: The site features discounts that the Trump administration has negotiated with drug companies, including Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk. People can't buy drugs directly from the site. Instead, it's a landing page with links that take them to pharmaceutical companies' direct-to-consumer purchasing platforms, or coupons that can be presented at a pharmacy. People who have health insurance could still pay cash for a medication from the site.

Age has long been a point of debate in American politics, but it becomes especially controversial when lawmakers remain in office well beyond traditional retirement years. As the nation grapples with issues like healthcare, technology, and economic change, questions naturally arise about how age, generation status, and experience influence leadership at the highest levels of government. For some voters, longevity in office represents wisdom; for others, it raises concerns about representation and outdated reasoning.
While the authority is legally limited to foreign intelligence, it can sweep in Americans' texts, emails and phone calls when they communicate with overseas targets. Those incidental collections - which have sometimes been followed by unauthorized searches of Americans' communications - have been extensively documented by government oversight bodies in recent years. The findings fueled reforms adopted when Congress last renewed the authority in April 2024.
Lee's disclosure seems to indicate she's going to run for a full term. The mayor raised $31,863 in the second half of 2025, according to a report filed with the city on Monday. She spent just under $6,000, mostly on routine office and professional services. It's a small amount compared to her total haul in 2025 for the special election - $580,000 - but it's far more than any of the possible challengers already in the race have raised.
Marimar Martinez, a Chicago teacher's assistant who survived being shot five times in her car by a Border Patrol agent in October, only to be charged by federal prosecutors afterward with an attempt to "assault federal officers with a deadly weapon." That prosecution subsequently fell apart under examination, causing an embarrassed DHS to drop the case against Martinez, even as she went on the offensive, campaigning to get the court to allow body camera footage of the shooting to be released to the public.
To be absolutely clear, neither Donald Trump's nor Bannon's proposals are remotely legal (or predicated on fact). The law prohibits intimidating voters where they are casting ballots - and it's hard to see how the presence of armed, masked agents from a paramilitary outfit that has shown no compunction at kidnapping and killing people would have any other purpose. And the Constitution gives states control over their own elections' processes,
