Vance and Rubio's differing postures on Iran war highlight their challenges ahead of 2028 election

AP News WASHINGTON (AP) — As President Donald Trump assembled his Cabinet last week, he asked Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Vice President JD Vance to give an update on the Iran war.

Rubio, known for his hawkish views, gave an impassioned defense of the war, calling it “a favor” to the United States and the world.

Vance, who has long pushed for restraint in U.S. military intervention overseas, was more sedate. He said that the U.S. now has “options” it didn’t have a year ago and that it is important Iran does not get a nuclear weapon — before redirecting his...

From TMZ to Trump, pressure grows to bring Congress back during partial shutdown

AP News WASHINGTON (AP) — TMZ built its brand tracking celebrities. Now it’s turning its attention to Congress, chasing down paparazzi-style shots of lawmakers on break from Washington during a record-long partial government shutdown.

Videos and photos posted by the tabloid website showing lawmakers in airports, Las Vegas and even Disney World have racked up millions of views and fueled a growing backlash.

Missed call in Brewers' victory over Rays puts additional spotlight on Bucknor

AP News MILWAUKEE (AP) — Umpire C.B. Bucknor's tough start to the season continues.

Bucknor was working as the first-base umpire for the Milwaukee Brewers' 6-2 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday when he made a call that was so obviously incorrect from the replay that it had both managers smiling afterward.

Milwaukee was leading 4-2 in the sixth inning when Jake Bauers hit an infield single. Bauers initially was called out because Bucknor determined he hadn't touched first base. The replay showed Bauers clearly touching the top of the bag, right across the middle. Read More
