Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley is endorsing Arizona Senate candidate Blake Masters, flexing his muscle in a high-profile Republican primary and cementing a new ideological alliance shaping the midterm election. Hawley — who is widely regarded as a prospective 2024 presidential contender — has now thrown his support to two of the most outspoken Republican populists running for Senate this year: Masters and Ohio Republican J.D. Vance. In both cases, Hawley is inserting himself into competitive primaries and backing candidates with notably anti-political establishment rhetoric and ideology. The Missouri Republican lavished praise on Masters in a statement to be released Monday,...

EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — Officers had glass bottles and canned food thrown at them when they attempted to break up a party that drew as many as 1,000 people to a neighborhood near the University of Oregon, police said. Eugene Police Chief Chris Skinner said the weekend party included underage drinkers, college-age individuals and their parents. Skinner called the party an embarrassment for those involved and said the attempted assault on officers was inexcusable.

If you don’t think Trump’s endorsements matter—think again!​ Over 2,000 GOP delegates and alternates gathered together today in Grand Rapids, MI, to cast critical votes for the next Republican Secretary of State and Attorney General candidates for the upcoming general election in November 2022. Both races were highly contentious, with two Trump-endorsed, grassroots election integrity candidates, Kristina Karamo for SOS and Constitutional Attorney Matt DePerno. Karamo and DePerno, two grassroots candidates with no political experience and limited campaign funds, ran against career politicians like Tom Leonard, who was showered with money and endorsements from establishment Republicans and anti-America First PAC...

However, there is a chance that the map will get overturned in court. Democrats, the American Civil Liberties Union of Kansas and the Campaign Legal Center have filed two lawsuits in state court alleging that the 3rd District’s new configuration is unfair and illegal. The Kansas Supreme Court may be sympathetic to the argument, since five of its seven members were appointed by Democratic governors.

Nkarta said Monday that two experimental, off-the-shelf treatments, both made from engineered natural killer cells, induced complete responses in patients with advanced forms of blood cancer. The results marked the first reveal of clinical data from its research programs. In one of the clinical trials, three of five patients with acute myeloid leukemia achieved complete remissions. Two of those patients showed no evidence of residual disease — the best response possible following treatment with the highest-tested dose of the Nkarta engineered natural killer, or NK, cells.

The National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) released two ads in Arizona, in both English and Spanish, targeting vulnerable Democrat Sen. Mark Kelly, who is up for reelection this November. Kelly has attempted to sound moderate to Arizona voters on border policies heading into the midterms to differentiate himself from President Joe Biden. Both NRSC ads, however, point out that the Arizona senator’s voting record on the border and illegal immigration is in lockstep with the Biden administration’s legislative agenda. Kelly has voted on Biden-backed legislation 97 percent of the time since entering the Senate in 2021, which is mentioned in...

FBI Director Christpher Wray addressed the skyrocketing rate of murders against police officers Sunday, saying the surge is far outpacing general violent crime. Wray made the comments during a "60 Minutes" interview on Sunday, saying murders of police officers rose 59% in 2021. The total murder rate rose 29% last year, and the U.S. lost 73 police officers to such attacks in 2021. "Violence against law enforcement in this country is one of the biggest phenomena that I think doesn't get enough attention," Wray said, adding that officers are being murdered at a rate of nearly "one every five days."

The University of Waterloo has an opening for a tenure track position in geography, earth science, environmental science, or sustainability - but white men need not apply. According to a listing posted by the Canadian University last month, the position is only available to women, or 'qualified individuals who self-identify as women, transgender, non-binary, or two-spirit' - a gender-variant derived from Native American culture. Men, meanwhile, will not be considered, the school says - especially if they are white.

WASHINGTON, April 25 (Reuters) - Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives welcomed reports that Twitter Inc (TWTR.N) is poised to agree to a sale to Elon Musk and called on the Tesla Inc (TSLA.O) chief executive to return former President Donald Trump to Twitter. "Hey, @elonmusk it's a great week to free @realDonaldTrump," tweeted the House Republican Conference, which currently represents 209 lawmakers. But a watchdog group, Media Matters for America, warned against exactly what some Republicans cheered. "There is still time for Twitter’s board to prevent some of the worst harms. Any negotiations to sell Twitter to Musk...

Joe Biden and other Green New Deal advocates continue to push for electric vehicles but without the necessary domestic supply of batteries. For now, the United States is dependent on the Chinese Communist Party for the necessary critical minerals and other elements needed to build them. The two most essential and expensive components of lithium-ion batteries, cathodes and anodes, are almost exclusively produced in China. According to Axios, the U.S. is behind Europe and China in its battery capabilities: Demand for batteries will skyrocket over the coming decades. If the U.S. wants to control its own energy destiny, it’ll need...

It should be $30 per hour," Parson tweeted.

ROME — The city of Bologna, Italy, has announced a pilot program to reward “virtuous” citizens for recycling, taking public transportation, and curbing energy usage. The program, which has been likened to China’s social credit system, is slated to go into effect in September, 2022, using a “smart citizen wallet” app for cell phones. “In September, we will start with a pilot project for the city: at the center is the virtuous citizen, the one who, for example, separates waste well or does not waste energy, or uses public transport and does not receive fines, or actively uses the Bologna...
