How many military strikes has the US launched in Trump's second term? We compiled every strike acknowledged by the Pentagon. The total: 14,415 worldwide.
The data shows Trump's preference to use military force to pursue goals, and more strikes may already be on the horizon (1/5)

Last year, President Donald Trump dispatched a chainsaw-wielding billionaire to loudly eliminate more than 300,000 federal jobs in an unsparing attempt to shrink the government.

Our father, Derk Sauer, has passed away. It’s an immeasurable loss, and no words can truly capture what a remarkable father and husband he was. He dedicated his life to defending independent Russian media. In his final days, he asked that people continue to support the free press

Trump's richest backer meets Trump's favorite word. Musk & Tesla are fighting to stave off massive tariffs on the Chinese graphite they need for EV batteries, an early test of Musk's influence versus Trump's economic ideas.

Smart reporting here by my colleague @TheAmaraReport for @economics. Harris is making an economic pitch to Black voters. But the context is tough because the racial wealth gap in America has only been growing…
Kamala Harris says she won't shy away from " the history and the disparities that exist for specific communities."
