ExxonMobil has confirmed its Joliet, IL refinery is fully back online after a successful restart: “11 million gallons per day of diesel and gasoline production capacity are back online.”

Israel has emerged as a major arms supplier to Morocco, accounting for 24% of the nation's defense imports and ranking second behind the United States. Military ties between the two nations have expanded significantly following the 2020 Abraham Accords.

I am calling for the release of Marwan Bhargouti from Israeli prison.

SCOTUS gets one right holding, “the Federal Government has an obligation to respond to requests from state and local election officials seeking to verify the citizenship of voters.” Only the Feds have the citizenship information states need to conduct lawful list maintenance. Florida has led the charge on this issue through years of litigation. The 20 arrests announced yesterday prove that with this information we can catch and punish those who try to cheat in our elections. thehill.com/regulation/court…

From Last to First: Florida’s Rise and the Heritage Election Integrity Scorecard @FLSecofState @CordByrd dailysignal.com/2026/09/22/f…

We have prioritized election integrity in Florida. I was proud to enact major reforms to ensure the security of our elections. The results are in: For three cycles in a row now, Florida has been the national model for conducting efficient, responsible, and transparent elections. We have zero tolerance for voter fraud. Today, @AGJamesUthmeier announced the arrests of 12 individuals, most of whom are non-citizens, for voting illegally in Florida. We will not tolerate attempts to undermine the integrity of our electoral process, and we will hold accountable those who violate our laws. I was proud to announce that the newly formed Association of State and Local Election Officials will bring together election officials from across the country to improve election administration and restore public trust in our electoral systems. Under the leadership of Cord Byrd, Florida’s own Secretary of State, we are committed to helping other states replicate the successes we have seen in Florida.

The crew of the USS Abraham Lincoln touched American soil for the first time in nine months, when the strike group pulled into Apra Harbor, Guam, for a brief logistics stop and on-base liberty. The supercarrier, alongside guided-missile destroyer USS Frank E. Petersen Jr., arrived on September 19 and left the next day. Lincoln is 307 days into her deployment, 19 short of the record set earlier this year by the USS Gerald R. Ford, and is now just weeks away from San Diego. Meanwhile, two flattops are on station in the Middle East supporting blockade operations, and the USS Ronald Reagan has rejoined the fleet after an extended maintenance availability.

My opening statement at Harvard last night where I argued that DEI policies have done great harm to the people who supposedly benefit from them, to the social cohesion of the academic community, and to those who deserve to participate in higher education.

What’s the case for ranked-choice voting? Delayed results? Longer lines? Eliminated ballots? Less transparency? Technical issues? Expensive machine upgrades? timescall.com/2026/09/20/lon…
