"The fact is, there was never an association with Russia" and Donald Trump, Crawford said Wednesday on the Just the News, No Noise TV show. "What this document shows is that, if anything, they had a preference for a President Hillary Clinton, because they had information on her that they could exploit after the fact.

Ukraine closed out its third round of direct talks with Russia on Wednesday with a proposal to hold a "leaders' summit" by the end of August with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Russian President Vladimir Putin, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and President Trump. The proposed summit would be held between Zelensky and Putin, and it would include the "participation" of the U.S. and Turkish presidents, according to a statement from Andriy Yermak,the head of Zelensky's office. Zelensky on Tuesday had again renewed his offer to meet with Putin to negotiate an end to the war, but Putin has rejected previous offers. Ukraine made the proposal in Turkey during the latest round of talks, which yielded few results and left delegations from both countries feeling far away from a deal on a cease-fire or end to the war. "It is clear that Russia is still not ready to end the war — but there is still time to reconsider and put an end to this madness," Yermak said in the statement....

A month after the Trump-declared ceasefire between Iran and Israel which ended the 12-day war, officials in Iran are increasingly concerned that Israeli intelligence may be engaged in covert sabotage operations on Iranian soil. Iran has for over two weeks been experiencing a wave of unexplained fires and explosions, occurring almost daily, and sometimes multiple times a day. While Iranian authorities have officially publicly blamed these incidents on outdated gas infrastructure, industrial accidents involving improper handling of gas containers, or faulty water heaters and electrical wiring, many within Iran's leadership privately suspect Israeli involvement, according to The New York Times. "For more than two weeks, mysterious explosions and fires have erupted across Iran, setting ablaze apartment complexes and oil refineries, a road outside a major airport and even a shoe factory," the Times report begins. refinery

Researchers in Japan say they have set a new world record for the fastest internet speed, transmitting over 125,000 gigabytes of data per second over 1,120 miles (1,802 kilometers). That's about 4 million times the average internet speed in the U.S. and would allow you to download the entire Internet Archive in less than four minutes, according to some rough estimates. This is also more than twice the previous world record of 50,250 GB/s, previously set by a different team of scientists in 2024. To achieve this new speed — which has not been independently verified — the team developed a new form of optical fiber to send information at groundbreaking speeds over roughly the distance between New York and Florida.

🤖 Earth may have at least 6 'minimoons' at any given time. Where do they come from?
Half a dozen fragments of the moon may briefly orbit Earth at any given time, before moving on to circle the sun, new research suggests — but the minimoons' small size and quick pace make them challenging to spot. When objects collide with the moon, they send up a shower of material, some of which manages to escape into space. Although there may be an occasional large chunk, most are fast-moving and smaller than 6.5 feet (2 meters) in diameter. The bulk of the lunar material falls into orbit around the more gravitationally attractive sun. But some of the debris may occasionally be pulled into an orbit around Earth before returning to circle the sun, researchers explained in a study published in the journal Icarus. It's "kind of like a square dance, where partners change regularly and sometimes leave the dance floor for a while," Robert Jedicke, a researcher at the University of Hawaii and lead author of the study, told Space.com by email.

As someone who has researched U.S. immigration policy for over three decades, I'm often asked why the Biden administration effectively opened America's borders, allowing in 9 or 10 million foreigners who had no legal right to enter.

💻 Best-ever map of the human genome yields new information on 'jumping genes,' 'junk DNA' and more
In a pair of papers, scientists greatly expanded our catalog of known genomic variation among humans. Twenty-two years after the completion of the Human Genome Project, scientists have unveiled the most expansive catalog of human genetic variation ever compiled. Across two new papers published Wednesday (July 23) in the journal Nature, scientists sequenced the DNA of 1,084 people around the world. They leveraged recent technological advancements to analyze long stretches of genetic material from each person, stitched those fragments together and compared the resulting genomes in fine detail. The results deepen our understanding of "structural variants" within the human genome. Rather than affecting a single "letter" in DNA's code, such variations affect large chunks of the code — they may be deleted from or added to the genome, or encompass places where the DNA has been flipped around or moved to a different location.

Parents, concerned about their children's education, found themselves recast not as civic participants but as potential threats to national security. According to a memo issued by AG Merrick Garland, the Justice Department would coordinate with the FBI and US Attorneys to address a supposed spike in threats against school board officials. But the underlying claim was a fiction. And now, thanks to newly released internal DOJ documents obtained by America First Legal (AFL), we can say conclusively what many suspected at the time: the Biden administration orchestrated this memo as part of a political operation, driven not by law or evidence, but by ideology and electoral calculus. Let us begin with a question. Why did the Department of Justice, whose jurisdiction is meant to guard against actual federal crimes, insert itself into a public...

Spanish TV channel Antena 3 reported that he was in the water when the shark attacked his board and bit him on the leg on Sunday. The media outlet published a video showing two bloody gashes just below the knee. The wounds were described as 'deep' and panicked witnesses. The man was seemingly able to fight off the shark and scramble back to the shore in the area of Los Molinos, a small hamlet to the west. Sharks have been spotted before off Fuerteventura, and beaches have had to be closed when jet ski patrols raised the alert over the sea creatures near the shore.

Multi-million-dollar properties were damaged and debris covered the roads in the affluent suburb of City Beach after the Wednesday-night storm the Bureau of Meteorology has now confirmed was a tornado. The storm, which came with little warning, was detected intensifying around 5:20pm. "[The storm] became significant as it immediately approached the coastline, so very limited scope for warning," meteorologist Jessica Lingard told ABC Radio Perth. "[There's] a lot of damage that we've seen overnight and it does look like it was a tornado that caused the damage in City Beach."
