Iran launched missile and drone strikes targeting U.S. military facilities in multiple Middle Eastern countries Friday, retaliating after coordinated U.S.–Israeli strikes on Iranian military and nuclear-linked sites. Explosions were reported in or near areas hosting American forces in Bahrain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Jordan, according to regional officials and state media accounts.

TSA workers brace for missed paychecks as Democrats hold firm on DHS funding

Transportation Security Administration (TSA) workers are on the cusp of working without pay, and there is no backup plan in place to ensure they don’t miss a check. During the longest government shutdown in history last year, the White House was able to shift around funding from the GOP’s ‘big, beautiful bill’ to ensure that military service members were paid. But TSA workers won’t get the same treatment. Over 60,000 TSA workers are set to...

If Khamenei falls, who takes Iran? Strikes will expose power vacuum — and the IRGC’s grip

As U.S. and Israeli forces strike deep inside Iran — reportedly targeting senior regime officials including Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and President Masoud Pezeshkian — the question of who would lead Iran if the Islamic Republic collapses is no longer theoretical. Iran has retaliated with missile barrages against U.S. positions across the Middle East, and while Iranian state media says top leaders remain alive and have been moved to secure locations, the direct targeting...

Fetterman praises Operation Epic Fury: Trump is ‘willing to do what’s right’

As one of Israel’s staunchest defenders from the left, Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., full-throatedly endorsed President Donald Trump’s attacks on Iran as lawmakers on both sides of the aisle reacted Saturday morning. ‘President Trump has been willing to do what’s right and necessary to produce real peace in the region,’ Fetterman wrote on X. ‘God bless the United States, our great military, and Israel.’ Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., one of Congress’ biggest backers of bold...

The 7 Best Trading VPS for Backtesting: Speed, Reliability & Accuracy Ranked

In the world of automated and quantitative trading, a trading strategy is only as good as its testing. A brilliant algorithm can fail spectacularly if it’s validated against flawed data or an unstable environment. For serious traders, particularly in the fast-paced forex market, relying on a standard desktop computer for backtesting is like preparing for a Formula 1 race in a go-kart. It simply lacks the power, stability, and precision required for meaningful results. This...

The phrase “side hustle” once suggested something temporary, squeezed in after work for a little extra cash. In 2026, that picture has changed. Across the UK and beyond, Gen Z women are turning unconventional online platforms into structured micro-businesses, thinking in terms of audience, margins, repeat customers, and brand positioning rather than quick wins. What looks casual from the outside is often run with the mindset of a founder. From quick cash to business strategy...

How UK Online Casinos Are Redefining Digital Entertainment

Not long ago, online casinos sat on the edges of the UK’s digital economy, treated more like a side channel than a core business. That has changed. As entertainment has moved onto phones and platforms, gambling businesses have followed the same path as streaming and gaming. The result is an industry that now looks less like a collection of websites and more like a set of competing digital platforms. The scale of that shift is...
