LOADING ERROR LOADINGFeb 20 (Reuters) - A federal judge rejected Tesla’s request to overturn a $243 million jury verdict over the 2019 crash of an Autopilot-equipped Model S, which killed a 22-year-old woman and severely injured her boyfriend.

Yesterday, Minnesota Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell received an appointment to one of the most important committees in the National Football League, and one that could allow him to have a significant influence on some of the league’s rules. O’Connell, along with Houston Texans’ head coach DeMeco Ryans, was named to the NFL’s Competition Committee on Thursday. The Competition Committee, per the NFL’s Communications website, “reviews all competitive aspects of the game, including (but not limited to) playing rules, roster regulations, technology, game-day operations and player protection.” They will meet before the NFL Combine gets underway to start determining any potential rules changes that could be presented to the league’s ownership for implementation for the 2026 season. Last year, the changes that the Competition Committee brought forth included making the “dynamic kickoff” a permanent feature of the game, along with changing the placement of a touchback from the 30 to the 35-yard line, as well as the virtual measurement and the overtime rules that guaranteed each team a possession in overtime in regular season games. They also proposed the banning of the controversial “Tush Push” play, a proposal that was ultimately struck down but could very well come up for a vote again this season.

The U.S. Constitution is clear that Congress, and Congress alone, has the authority to tax the American people, and tariffs are taxes. As Chief Justice John Roberts noted, a month after imposing a 10% additional tariff on Chinese goods, he increased the rate to 20%. Trump’s tariffs destabilized the global economy, while the wild instability made it impossible for U.S. companies to plan. The Tax Foundation estimated that Trump’s tariffs cost the average American household about $1,000 in 2025. Now the Supreme Court has said that the chaos and cost of Trump’s tariffs was for nothing.
WASHINGTON—President Trump is weighing an initial limited military strike on Iran to force it to meet his demands for a nuclear deal, a first step that would be designed to pressure Tehran into an agreement but fall short of a full-scale attack that could inspire a major retaliation. In 2018, during a period of heated nuclear rhetoric between Washington and Pyongyang, the first Trump administration weighed a limited, pre-emptive strike on North Korea . The strongest military force in the world may at times be struck so hard that it cannot get up again. Last year, the White House said it would give Iran two weeks to make a similar nuclear deal. But just days later, B-2 bombers and other platforms attacked three Iranian nuclear sites, setting back the country’s nuclear work.
When the Justice Department decided last year not to release its Epstein files, U.S. officials said there was nothing in the documents that warranted further prosecution. Trump appointees in charge of the Justice Department said that after an “exhaustive review” they had found no incriminating client list. The highest-profile example came Thursday, when U.K. authorities arrested the former Prince Andrew on suspicion of misconduct in public office. This was the metric I established for success of the Epstein Files Transparency Act,” he wrote on X . “The Brits are showing the DOJ the way to investigate the Epstein files,” said John Fishwick, a former U.S. attorney in Virginia.
