- WASHINGTON (TNND) — President Donald Trump has been telling donors to get behind Vice President JD Vance for 2028, according to reports.
“At the end of the day, we need to elect JD,” Trump reportedly told donors two weeks ago, according to The Washington Post.

- A Senate committee voted to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress, referring him to the Justice Department for potential prosecution, in the wake of his hearing last week, where he pleaded the Fifth over a hundred times.
On Thursday, the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs voted 8-5 to hold Fauci in contempt, despite Democrats' repeated attempts to delay.
Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., who chairs the committee, called for the contempt vote last week, telling Fauci, "It’s against the law to obstruct an investigation of Congress. There will be repercussions for your refusal to testify today."

- Description
- Concerns about American military readiness have intensified following multiple reports of dwindling munitions stockpiles after five months of war with Iran.
Reuters was first to report the U.S. Army has gone through "virtually all" of its surface-to-surface Army Tactical Missile Systems and Precision Strike Missiles, citing people familiar with inventory data. These weapons allow personnel to launch accurate strikes while keeping a safe distance from the target. A shortage of these could necessitate the use of more dangerous methods of attacking the enemy, experts warned.
A Pentagon spokesperson who responded to the report said the military has everything it needs to execute orders from the president. Last week, responding to earlier reports of strained stockpiles, President Donald Trump said, "We have plenty."
“We have a lot of the mid-level stuff, too. I mean, more than we could ever use, no matter what. But we have a lot. I’d like to have more, to be h...

- PENSACOLA, Fla. -- We now know the pilot of the small plane that made an emergency landing Monday morning on I-10 east in Pensacola.
The flight instructor is 21-year-old Emily Shelton.
The student she was flying with was on his first ever lesson. Thankfully, the two walked away without injuries.
Dramatic video captured by truck driver Eric Jordan shows Shelton fly the plane under overhead sign structure on I-10 before landing on the highway.
Air Traffic Control audio reveals Shelton -- who has logged approximately 1,300 hours of total flight time -- reported the smell of burning oil in the cockpit, which led to the emergency landing.
WEAR News talked to George Sigler on Tuesday. He's a retired Navy and commercial pilot, as well as a flight instructor.

- Vice President JD Vance on Wednesday called on Congress to help codify a broader federal anti-fraud effort, arguing that stronger data-sharing rules, steeper penalties and more resources are needed to stop waste, fraud and abuse in government programs.
Speaking at a roundtable event with lawmakers focused on fraud prevention, Vance said the Trump administration’s fraud task force had identified $230 billion in fraud and stopped $56 billion in fraudulent payments since it was created.
He said the effort, which has involved agencies across the federal government, should now be backed by legislation to make the changes permanent.

- What does children’s research actually do for Arkansas families?
In this episode of Science 501, KATV Executive Producer Michael Thompson talks with Dr. Tamara Perry, President of the Arkansas Children’s Research Institute and Senior Vice President and Chief Research Officer for Arkansas Children’s.
Dr. Perry is a physician, researcher, asthma and allergy specialist — and someone who understands Arkansas families because she grew up here, too.
This conversation looks at how research moves from the lab into real life: the late-night asthma worry, the parent trying to make the right call, the child who needs better answers, and the work happening at Arkansas Children’s to make care better for kids across the state.
Science can sound far away. This episode is about what happens when it reaches the people who need it.

- Gas is expensive and American drivers are exhausted. President Donald Trump is frustrated, too, but his beef is with major oil companies that just reported blockbuster second-quarter earnings.
"They're making too much money, OK, based on a shortage, they're making too much money. I don't like it and I should be the last one to say it because I'm a big free enterprise guy, nobody bigger," Trump said Monday.
The oil shortage Trump referred to is a product of the Iran war. The Iranian regime has essentially closed the Strait of Hormuz, which, before the war, was used to transport one-fifth of the world's crude oil. The longest stretch of elevated fuel prices tied to this supply shock overlapped with the same period covered in second-quarter earnings reports: April, May and June.
Chevron reported adjusted earnings of $12 billion, compared to $3.1 billion in the second quarter of 2025. ExxonMobil also more than doubled earnings, raking in $14.7 billion compared to $7.1 ...

- Description
- A Little Rock city board member is proposing an 18-month moratorium on hyperscale data centers in city limits that would halt the permitting process for Google's planned billion-dollar data center at the Port of Little Rock. Board Member Kathy Webb says the city needs more time to develop additional regulations before any hyperscale data centers come to town. She says the city has thus far rushed the approval process for Google's planned data center.
