CatholicVote, America’s leading Catholic Advocacy organization, has released voter guides for seven states: Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. The key message for Catholics: vote early. “These midterms are crucial for the values Catholics hold dear: the sanctity of life and marriage, immigration and border security, keeping boys out of girls’ sports, the appointment of judges and justices on the state and federal levels, and religious liberty, all of which are being assaulted by the Democratic Socialists of America,” said CatholicVote President and CEO Kelsey Reinhardt. “Our voter guides explain the pros and cons of candidates in…

Sign up to see the future, today Can’t-miss innovations from the bleeding edge of science and tech Ever since ChatGPT blew up the tech industry, the so-called godfathers of AI have remained been pretty dour about their creations — well, except for one of them — and they’re certainly not sounding any more optimistic about its consequences now. In an open letter published Tuesday, some 400 scientists, including Geoffrey Hinton and Yoshua Bengio, two pioneers of the tech whose work on deep learning was foundational to modern LLMs, called for the creation of an international body to set containment measures…
Screencap of Twitter/X video. Does everyone remember Don Lemon? He is the failed CNN host who somehow thinks he remains relevant today even though he has been reduced to nothing more than a podcast host. Lemon has a severe case of ‘Main Character Syndrome’ and has been teasing for months now that he is going to run for president in 2028. It’s unclear who he thinks is going to vote for him in this endeavor. Also, does he really think that the twenty or more Democrats who are also planning to run are just going to step aside and let…

First, House Democrats have to actually have the problem. Playing musical chairs three weeks before a midterm election could be seen as rational preparation, or perhaps just a wee bit of hubris in what still looks like a close election. Advertisement Odds are that the GOP will lose the House majority, at least if historical trends and the current D+8.3 in the RealClearPolling aggregate average in the generic ballot hold up. That means House Democrats get all the gavels in the next session of Congress, and that has already created a big worry for Hakeem Jeffries & Co., according to…
The State of Arkansas has awarded more than $1.7 million in grants to pro-life pregnancy help organizations since July 1 of this year. The funding was possible thanks to a budget measure lawmakers passed last spring. Since 2022, Arkansas law has generally prohibited abortion except to save the life of the mother, and public health data shows that thousands of children are alive today thanks to the state’s pro-life laws. But women with unplanned pregnancies still need help. That’s why Arkansas has appropriated millions of dollars to charities that support women and families with unplanned pregnancies every year.

A foreign national could face years in prison for allegedly threatening America’s security via industrial espionage of “cutting-edge intellectual property.” While it remains to be seen whether or not the rebranding of artificial intelligence as super intelligence will stick, preferred nomenclature doesn’t change the perception that dominance of the rapidly developing technology is akin to the importance of the space race. To that end, a Saudi national working for OpenAI was arrested Friday for allegedly spying on an executive conference room.

Congressional Democrats promise that stepping down is only the beginning for Kimberly Guilfoyle as they aim to use her to “hold the admin accountable.” Leading up to the midterm elections, leftist lawmakers have been open about their intended aims to grind President Donald Trump’s agenda to a halt with taxpayer-funded investigations and hearings should they gain control of the House.

Europe depends on U.S. intelligence because it lacks comparable satellite, surveillance, and collection capabilities, while European replacements remain years away. Europe depends on the United States for intelligence because it never built the systems the U.S. operates. It has no missile early-warning satellites, few reconnaissance satellites, and no EU-level intelligence service capable of collecting intelligence. It relies on U.S.-built AWACS aircraft and surveillance drones, along with a U.S.-sponsored NATO fusion centre. Funded European replacements are not expected to become operational until 2029 or the early 2030s. On the evening of October 12, Russia fired five Iskander-M ballistic missiles at Kyiv…
