AP News NEW YORK (AP) — Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Monday announced that his department will devote $100 million toward a pilot program addressing homelessness and substance abuse in eight cities, building on an executive order President Donald Trump signed last week related to addiction.

NASA hit by a fuel leak during a practice countdown of the moon rocket that will fly with astronauts

AP News CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — NASA ran into a leak while fueling its new moon rocket Monday in one final make-or-break test that will determine when astronauts can launch on a lunar fly-around.

The launch team began loading the 322-foot (98-meter) rocket with super-cold hydrogen and oxygen at Kennedy Space Center at midday. More than 700,000 gallons (2.6 million liters) had to flow into the tanks and remain on board for several hours, mimicking the final stages of an actual countdown.

Coach Sean McVay and GM Les Snead agree to multiyear contract extensions with the Rams

AP News LOS ANGELES (AP) — Coach Sean McVay and general manager Les Snead agreed to multiyear contract extensions to stay with the Los Angeles Rams on Monday, extending their successful nine-year partnership.

The Rams are 92–57 in the regular season and 10–6 in the playoffs since Snead and owner Stan Kroenke hired a then-30-year-old McVay in 2017, one year after the franchise returned home from St. Louis. The Rams...

AP News LOS ANGELES (AP) — The record that won album of the year at the 2026 Grammy Awards Sunday night — Bad Bunny’s “Debí Tirar Más Fotos” — is the one many industry experts labeled the most deserving, and therefore an unlikely candidate for victory.

In the same breath, the Grammys — not a place historically known for fervent political messaging — was filled with celebrities taking anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement stances. Of the nine televised awards handed out to seven different artists, nearly half addressed immigration in their acceptance speeches.

Trump administration to create a strategic reserve for rare earth elements

AP News WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration plans to deploy nearly $12 billion to create a strategic reserve of rare earth elements, a stockpile that could counter China's ability to use its dominance of these hard to process metals as leverage in trade talks.

The White House confirmed on Monday the start of “Project Vault,” which would initially be funded by a $10 billion loan from the U.S. Export-Import Bank and nearly $1.67 billion in private capital. The minerals kept in the reserve would help to shield the manufacturers of autos, electronics and other goods from any...
