The Trump administration has quietly frozen approximately 165 onshore wind projects by withholding Pentagon approvals, while the Department of the Interior paused all offshore wind leases citing classified national security reports.

Trump launches ‘Project Freedom’ with 15,000 troops and guided-missile destroyers to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Iran claims it struck a US frigate with two missiles.

A federal judge blocked the $6.2 billion Nexstar-Tegna TV station merger on antitrust grounds, finding the deal would eliminate competition, gut local newsrooms, and jack up prices for consumers. The ruling defies both the FCC and DOJ, which had already approved the deal.

Georgia’s 14th Congressional District votes today in a special runoff between Democrat Shawn Harris and Republican Clay Fuller to replace Marjorie Taylor Greene. The outcome could tighten the House majority to its thinnest margin yet.
Iran has rejected a proposed 45-day ceasefire as Trump sets an 8 p.m. Tuesday deadline for Tehran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, threatening to reduce the country to rubble.
