Traitor Trump proudly does a deal with Putin that will kill Ukrainians—and his sycophantic FBI director heads to Russia. You do the math.

This is a sitting member of Congress who called for immigrants to be executed by throwing them to their deaths out of helicopters. Mike Collins personally amplified neo-Nazi propaganda online. It's disqualifying for a member of Congress and for a candidate for the U.S. Senate.

back in the olden days DOJ would investigate a particular crime it believed had been committed, rather than just poking around to see if anything was wrong
The investigation is seeking information to see where it leads, the source said. For example, if records, representations related to age and immigration status contain false information, that would provide material for investigators to scrutinize further. They could also examine communications related to such matters.

“A new report echoes a chorus of scientific research saying that permanent Standard Time is the best solution for eliminating twice-yearly clock change.”
USA Today

A clock change dilemma pits science vs. politics

Some politicians want permanent daylight saving time, but a chorus of scientists say that's the wrong way to fix the seasonal time change problem.

Doyle Rice & Jeanine Santucci

Updated Oct. 10, 2026, 11:35 a.m. ET

Daylight is already fading, and soon Americans will set back the clocks too. But this year political support is building for doing away with seasonal time changes by switching to permanent daylight saving time.

That would be a mistake, scientists say.

A new report echoes a chorus of scientific research saying that permanent standard time is the best solution for eliminating the dreaded twice-yearly clock change.

You might enjoy daylight saving time for its later sunsets throughout the year. But standard time's earlier sunrises are more in line with our body clocks, leading to better sleep and mood, authors of the report say.

For now, most of the nation is scheduled to set the clocks back Nov. 1, ending…
