Allies of Keir Starmer warned Labour plotters last night they could trigger a general election if they oust him. As rumours of a leadership challenge swirled at Westminster, friends of the beleaguered Prime Minister claimed any new leader would 'need their own mandate' from the voters. The warning followed a chaotic day in which a Downing Street bid to 'kneecap' potential rival Wes Streeting backfired disastrously. With Labour currently averaging less than 20 per cent in the polls, an election now could see hundreds of MPs lose their seats. Although there is no legal requirement for a new PM to...

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) is reportedly considering a run for California governor — a possible foil to frontrunner Katie Porter. Two anonymous sources close to the congressman told MSNBC that he has been considering a play for the Golden State governor’s mansion with a possible announcement as early as next week. “Swalwell declined to comment when reached by MSNBC, but a source close to the congressman, who asked to remain anonymous to discuss the private discussions, said Swalwell allies had asked him to run ‘to fill a “fighter/protector” role’ in the mold of Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom,” reported MSNBC. Should...

The New North Carolina plant is aimed at selling more hybrid cars and trucks to AmericansLIBERTY, N.C.—Toyota, a longtime hybrid car and truck promoter, is making one of the industry’s biggest bets on green transportation and opening a $14 billion battery plant here. For years, Toyota held out against electric vehicles while rivals retrofitted factories and launched models in preparation for an all-electric future. Now that the EV market in the U.S. is vanishing as tax credits expire and sales disappoint, Toyota is doubling down on its hybrid strategy. The Japanese automaker’s gamble: that American consumers—many of whom won’t touch...

WASHINGTON (AP) — On any day during her eight years as first lady of the United States, Michelle Obama said she could go from giving a speech to meeting with a counterpart from another country to digging in her vegetable garden with groups of schoolchildren. And her clothes had to be ready for that. There was too much else to do, including raising daughters Sasha and Malia, and she said she did not have time to obsess over what she was wearing. “I was concerned about, ‘Can I hug somebody in it? Will it get dirty?’” she said Wednesday night...

NICHOLAS COUNTY, W.Va. (WOWK) – A mine worker has died after being trapped in a Nicholas County mine. West Virginia Governor Patrick Morrisey released a statement on twitter saying that around 6:00 a.m. this morning, water levels inside the Rolling Thunder Mine receded enough for crews to safely enter.

Officials have said Lipscomb had 20 years of mining experience, and the company said he had been employed with them since 2006. West Virginia Delegate Dean Jeffries (R-Kanawha) also confirmed that Lipscomb...

WASHINGTON (AP) — Jessica Sweet spent the federal government shutdown cutting back. To make ends meet, the Social Security claims specialist drank only one coffee a day, skipped meals, cut down on groceries and deferred paying some household bills. She racked up spending on her credit card buying gas to get to work. With the longest shutdown ever coming to a close, Sweet and hundreds of thousands of other federal workers who missed paychecks will soon get some relief. But many are left feeling that their livelihoods served as political pawns in the fight between recalcitrant lawmakers in Washington and...

In her Soviet-era apartment block on the outskirts of eastern Kyiv, Oksana Zinkovska-Boyarska lives with daily power cuts. The lift to her eighth-floor apartment often stops, the lights go out and sometimes the pumps maintaining pressure in the gas central heating fail. She has a big rechargeable battery pack to keep appliances going, but it costs €2,000 (£1,770) and it only lasts so long. Her husband Ievgen, a lawyer, often has to work by torchlight. Their two-year-old daughter Katia plays by candlelight too. Amid air raids and cold darkness, Oksana says she and Ievgen worry constantly for Katia. "I can't...

Thank you all for your prayers and condolences. My dad's graveside service was simply beautiful! They played two of his favorite songs: "Blue Bayou" by Linda Ronstadt and "Zion" by Aaron Shust. Yvonne took several short videos of the service - as well as from the viewing the night before, and I'm posting mostly image captures from those videos. I'll continue working on this over the coming days.

Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., gave his thoughts on what he considers to be a divide in the Democratic Party amid fallout from the longest government shutdown in U.S. history in an interview Thursday on "Will Cain Country." One impact of the shutdown, according to the senator from Louisiana, is the potential political shakeup within the Democratic Party that will land at the feet of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. "Senator Schumer gambled, and he lost," Kennedy said. "He’s kind of walking around now looking like a guy who just lost his luggage." "I think his testicles are on back order...

More than 2.8 million Brits have signed a petition as of Wednesday, calling on the U.K. government to reverse its mandatory Digital ID system over concerns it will lead to "mass surveillance and digital control." The ID program, dubbed "Brit Card" and announced last week by U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer, is set to be rolled out by August 2029 in an attempt by the Labour government to crack down on illegal immigration as it would bar anyone who doesn’t have a digital ID from working in the U.K. But critics of the plan argue its effects on illegal immigration...

The government alleges McIver intervened as federal agents attempted to arrest Newark Mayor Ras Baraka. U.S. District Judge Jamel Semper turned down...

Who are the five doctors — one of them dead — under the scanner for allegedly being terrorists? At least four of them were allegedly part of the White-Collar Terror Module. Terror seems to have a new face in India: White-collar professionals respected worldwide for their reputation for saving lives — doctors. In less than a week, four doctors, apparently radicalised by Pakistan-based terror groups, have been arrested across northern and western India, while a fifth one has been accused of being the “suicide bomber” who was allegedly responsible for 11 other deaths caused by the car explosion near Delhi’s...
