Gov. Greg Abbott signed the measure into law and framed it as a safeguard against foreign influence. It is very simple. Hostile foreign adversaries like China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea, as well as foreign terrorist organizations like Tren de Aragua, must not be allowed to own land in Texas, Abbott said in a press release. They should not be allowed access to our critical infrastructure, and they may not be allowed to exploit our border.

I would wait to pass judgment on that; cinema history is full of dismissive takes on festival lineups that later turned out to be filled with bangers. Anticipation can be a double-edged sword; a movie you've been dying to see will sometimes disappoint you simply for being different.

He cannot hide the public outrage over maneuvers intended to evade the release of the full Epstein sex trafficking files, and over cutbacks to Medicaid and disaster relief.

President Trump's been very consistent, Zeldin said. He's not a fan of wind, the economics of it. He has also been outspoken on environmental impacts, impacts to fisheries.

Tesla Energy Ventures, a subsidiary of Tesla, made an application [PDF] in July to the Gas and Electricity Markets Authority for an electricity supply licence to serve domestic and non-domestic premises in the UK. Elon Musk's electric buggy-maker has been playing on the margins of the power business with residential solar panels and battery systems for home users (Powerwall) and utitilites (Megapack) for years.

Elon Musk's company, Tesla, should have its application to supply energy to UK homes blocked on national security grounds, Ed Davey has told ministers. The Liberal Democrat leader argued that giving the electric car manufacturer a foothold in the British energy market would be a gravely concerning move considering Elon Musk's repeated interference in UK politics. Tesla has a clean energy arm and applied in July for a licence to supply power to British homes.

In a written answer to a question from The Associated Press, the State Department said all U.S. visa holders, which can include tourists from many countries, are subject to "continuous vetting," with an eye toward any indication that they could be ineligible for permission to enter or stay in the United States.
