This upgrade for Appleton would have cut energy costs for years to come. Wisconsin families deserve to have their hard-earned dollars invested back in their communities, but President Trump is playing politics.

Hard to overstate how much Hegseth's execution stream mirrors the U.S. military's traditional description of ISIS propaganda: broadcast killings designed to send a message, strike fear and create a social media spectacle. Will almost certainly be repurposed by online terror cells

NEW: The Trump administration sanctioned the International Criminal Court hours after a former ICC judge won the Nobel Peace Prize. The Trump administration’s continued attempts to dismantle the ICC undercut its ability to investigate and prosecute atrocities like war crimes and genocide.
