We have had more updates on Joe Biden’s health now that he’s out of office than we ever had while he was in the White House.

In an interview with the BBC, Hunter Biden gave an update on his father Joe Biden’s battle with cancer.

The former first son shared that his father’s cancer is “debilitating” and is “spreading.”

The Hill reported more on Hunter’s update on his father’s cancer:

Former President Joe Biden's cancer has spread to other parts of his body, his son Hunter Biden revealed in an interview, describing the disease as "very painful" and "very debilitating."

"The cancer has spread, metastasized into his bones and further," he told the BBC's "Newsnight" Friday. "It's really sad to watch."

Several months after leaving the White House, the former president announced in May 2025 that he had been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer. At the time, his office said the cancer appeared to be "hormone-sensitive," allowing for "effective management.

Hunter Biden became emotional during the interview while discussing his father's condition, saying that watching the former president's health

She was once the face of the party, but now even failed presidential nominee Hillary Clinton is acknowledging the potentially debilitating split that has emerged between typical leftist Democrats like her and the crop of socialist candidates rising to prominence this election cycle.

As Fox News reported:

Clinton noted that many Democrats now will have to learn to pivot and support the progressive Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed's campaign to defeat Republican Mike Rogers, while El-Sayed's supporters will have to learn how to re-integrate defeated Haley Stevens and her supporters who they were “vilifying” online and in person.

Clinton warned that the Democratic Party's coalition cannot afford to keep being a one-way street in terms of supporting candidates.

“One thing that we haven’t yet seen enough of is that when the progressives, the left — whatever we want to call, you know, candidates on that side of the Democratic Party — when they lose, they often don’t support the candidate that has been nominated,” she said. “You know, there

In the early morning hours on Saturday, Todd Blanche was confirmed — at long last — as Attorney General.

This was one of the Senate’s final moves before departing for their controversial 5-week August recess.

The White House announced:

CONFIRMED: Todd Blanche has been officially confirmed as the 88th Attorney General of the United States!

The Senate ended up staying late to get Blanche’s confirmation done before skipping town.

AG Todd Blanche thanked them in a post on X:

I am deeply honored by the trust and confidence President Trump has placed in me to lead the Department of Justice as our great nation’s 88th Attorney General.

I am grateful to the Senate for staying late to complete this process.

This is quite concerning.

A new report by Bloomberg has revealed there have been multiple reported cases of suicide among personnel working with the US military's cyberwarfare unit.

According to the report in a month-long span five personal of US Cyber Command have committed suicide.

US Cyber Command is reviewing an unusually high number of deaths by suicide among its personnel, as many as five people who worked in or with the command between early June and early July, Bloomberg reports, citing government officials and internal records.

Bloomberg was the first to break news of the unusual amount of suicides:

The US military's cyberwarfare unit is scrutinizing an unusually high number of deaths by suicide among personnel over a month-long period this summer, according to government officials and other people familiar with the matter.

The deaths have worried US lawmakers and military leaders within the secretive section of the armed forces, which defends American computer systems and hacks foreign adversaries, according to the people

Hey there,

Thin “crepey” skin is one of the most visible and frustrating signs of aging.

But after years of research, scientists from Kyung Hee University in Seoul have discovered something remarkable:

Women who tried this daily "tea ritual" experienced an 82% improvement in crepey skin with results in as little as 2 weeks…

And a 48% reduction in wrinkles!

High definition 3D skin scans show dramatic before-and-after differences.

It works by nourishing your fibroblasts, critical cells that produce 100% of your skin's collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic

The U.S. Army has suddenly removed another high-ranking general from command.

Lt. Gen. Charles Costanza, who was the top general overseeing forces in Europe, was recently relieved of command.

This comes roughly two months before he was scheduled to depart.

Here are the details:

President Trump is taking another run at removing Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook.

This time, the White House has put a deadline on it.

Cook has until August 26 to answer the mortgage allegations at the center of a fight that has already gone all the way to the Supreme Court.

The Associated Press reports that White House aide Dan Scavino sent Cook’s attorney a letter saying President Trump is considering removing her from the Fed’s Board of Governors. The notice gives Cook 21 days to challenge the allegations before the president makes another decision.

The 21-day window is the legal key to the White House’s second attempt. Without it, another removal decision would arrive with the same fatal flaw.

It is the White House’s answer to the procedural defect that stopped the first removal attempt.

The letter largely repeats the allegations raised last year, but the process is different. Cook now has a written explanation, a response deadline and an opportunity to put her evidence in front of the president before any final action is taken.

Her attorney says the renewed effort remains

Meta just got handed a $567 million bill in New Mexico.

But the money is not the part that should make Silicon Valley nervous.

A state judge also ordered changes aimed at the machinery behind Facebook and Instagram — the addictive design choices, weak protections and age-detection failures that New Mexico says helped turn childhood into a profit center.

The Associated Press reports that Judge Bryan Biedscheid directed Meta to pay $567 million over five years to address harms suffered by young people. Of that amount, $420 million is earmarked for treatment services.

The remaining money is assigned to prevention, public awareness, screening and related costs. The order also requires stronger responses to reports of child sexual abuse, limits on how chatbots interact with minors and caps on the hours young users can spend on Meta’s platforms.

The balance is slated for prevention, public awareness, screening and related costs. State lawmakers will determine how the money is ultimately distributed.

That comes on top of the $375 million civil verdict a New Mexico jury returned against Meta in March.

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito said he does not plan on retiring anytime soon, denying rumors that he is considering retirement this year.

"Obviously I'm here for another term," Alito said in an interview published on Friday.

POLITICO has more:

NPR accidentally published an article announcing the conservative justice's retirement in June, which it swiftly took down and apologized for. Journalist Nina Totenberg, a longtime legal affairs correspondent for NPR, later said the mistake happened because she incorrectly assumed that the court was announcing Alito's retirement during announcements of staff retirements.

And some conservatives, mindful of the possibility Republicans may lose the Senate in November, have also quietly rooted for Alito to step aside — which would give President Donald Trump an opportunity to appoint another Supreme Court justice.

Alito also brushed aside those calls, dismissing the notion that judges are interchangeable parts, even with ideological peers.

"It's not pleasant, in the sense that it's a
