Student activists at a small college in Wisconsin can now run their Turning Point USA-affiliated club without obstacles.

The Patriots of Faith group at Lawrence University is now approved after fighting for months for official status.

Zach Currier and his club faced a battle after a campuswide referendum on the club was scrapped due to low turnout. In the meantime, Currier had to wait for the student government to approve his organization, as The College Fix reported in April. Around 1,500 students attend the liberal arts college in Appleton.

EXCERPT:

The court has granted Fulton County’s request to unseal their case against the Department of Justice, who issued a subpoena seeking the identity information of everyone associated with the 2020 election.

That’s according to a statement released Sunday from Robb Pits, chairman of the Board of Commissioners of Fulton County.

The county filed a motion to quash to keep the DOJ from enforcing the subpoena.

“The recent decision to unseal means that you will be able to follow future developments because the public and media now have access to the docket and the documents filed in the case,” Pitts said.

The subpoena comes after the FBI in January went to a Fulton County elections warehouse and seized ballots and other documents from the 2020 election, which Georgia’s certified totals showed Trump lost in the state to Biden by 11,779 votes out of nearly 5 million cast…

Scientists discover inherited traits that break Mendel’s Laws of genetics– www.sciencedaily.com

For more than a century, biology has been guided by the principles of inheritance first described by Gregor Mendel through his famous pea plant experiments. While those rules explain how many genetic traits are passed from parents to offspring, scientists have also known that DNA sequences are not the whole story.

In addition to genes themselves, parents can pass along epigenetic changes. These are chemical modifications that affect how genes function without altering the underlying DNA code.

Now, a new federally funded study in mice suggests that some of these inherited epigenetic marks do not follow Mendel’s classic laws. Researchers found that about 7% of the epigenetic inheritance patterns they examined behaved in unexpected ways. The study also uncovered rare forms of inheritance previously seen in plants and flies but not in mammals.

WASHINGTON — The world is getting more uptight about lending money to President Donald Trump’s government — causing interest rates to climb in ways that are worsening affordability pressures, hampering economic growth and creating a new risk for Republicans in November’s midterm elections.

The energy price spike triggered by the Iran war has seeped into the price of bonds that help fund the U.S. government. Interest rates on a 10-year U.S. Treasury note are topping 4.44%, up from 3.95% before the war started at the end of February. Average mortgage rates have climbed to their highest levels in nine months, while auto sales are slumping.

LONDON — British authorities said Monday they blocked Hasan Piker, a Turkish American online streamer, and another political commentator from entering the U.K. to speak at public events.

Piker, a liberal political commentator who is frequently critical of U.S. President Donald Trump, Israel and the war in Gaza, has 2.8 million followers on Twitch.

The Home Office said that the electronic travel authorization, or ETA, for Piker and Cenk Uygur, who hosts the “Young Turks” online political talk show and is reportedly Piker’s uncle, were canceled “on the grounds that their presence in the U.K. may not be conducive to the public good.”

Australia’s economy minister said Monday that “legitimate” concerns were driving a rise in support for the far right after a bombshell opinion poll showed the populist One Nation is now the country’s most popular party.

The United Nations has issued an urgent plea for calm and respect for the agreed ceasefire after Israel pushed its offensive into Lebanon, a move that puts fragile US-Iran peace talks on the brink of collapse.

The UN call came amid Israeli government ordered strikes on the southern suburbs of Beirut on Monday, a day after its ground forces reached their furthest point in Lebanon in 26 years and as Hezbollah fired rockets at northern Israel, including the outskirts of the coastal city of Haifa.

Anthropic is sharing access to its most advanced AI model Mythos with the EU after the region sought access over months due to cybersecurity concerns.

The European Commission confirmed to CNBC on Monday that it had “several productive meetings” with the American AI firm.

“We welcome the latest developments on potential future access,” EU tech sovereignty spokesperson Thomas Regnier said in emailed statements, adding that the bloc aims to get a clearer idea of the potential risks that the technology poses.

Anthropic initially rolled out Mythos to a limited number of companies in April as part of Anthropic’s cybersecurity venture Project Glasswing, with the model excelling at identifying security flaws and weaknesses in software. The launch prompted a wave of concern over cybersecurity threats from bad actors.

“Let’s not forget that Mythos is not one off, a new wave of powerful models are coming to the market,” Regnier said. “This is a shared challenge, and we are intensifying our discussions with like-minded partners, including the United States.”

Nepal’s Prime Minister Balendra Shah has reignited a border dispute with India after claiming in parliament that Nepal has also encroached on Indian territory – a departure from Nepal’s usual stance, which has largely focused on accusing its bigger neighbour of occupying its land.

Speaking on Sunday in his first formal address to the Federal Parliament of Nepal since becoming the country’s youngest prime minister earlier this year, Shah, 35, sparked anger among Nepali lawmakers with his comments.

The long-running dispute between Nepal and India over border territories including Limpiyadhura, Lipulekh and Kalapani has periodically bubbled up over the years. The conflict is a mix of contested history, geography, politics and mapping.

Despite the challenges posed for Israel’s defense industries at home and abroad by the war that began on October 7, 2023, exports continue to break records: $19.2 billion in 2025, the Ministry of Defense reports. This is a jump of about 30% from 2024, as well as a doubling in five years and a quadrupling in a decade.

A record number of GTG (government-to-government) deals were reported totaling about $10 billion – over 50% of the transactions. This reflects a growing trend in the industry, in which defense ministries act as an umbrella for major deals. This stems from the requirement to transfer knowledge and production lines abroad from the transactions, in amounts that may reach about 30% in many cases.
