Roger Stone has been a key advisor to several presidents. How did he get into such a vital position with leaders of the free world? The road was unorthodox and NOT what you might expect. Plus, he explains why he points directly at Lyndon Johnson in the assassination of JFK.
Pope Leo XIV has celebrated his first Mass, a day after his historic election as the first U.S.-born pope in the church’s 2,000-year history. The election of cardinal Robert Prevost as the new pontiff overcame the traditional prohibition against a pope from the United States. On Friday, wearing white vestments, Leo processed into the Sistine Chapel and blessed the cardinals as he approached the altar and Michelangelo’s “The Last Judgement” behind it. It was in the same frescoed chapel that the Chicago-born missionary was elected the 267th pope the previous day. Meanwhile, congratulations are pouring in from world leaders and statesmen as Leo begins his papacy.

Top U.S. officials are set to meet with a high-level Chinese delegation this weekend in Switzerland. The administration on Tuesday announced the first major talks between the two nations since President Donald Trump sparked a trade war with stiff tariffs on imports. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer will meet with their counterparts in Geneva in the most-senior known conversations between the two countries in months. The Chinese Commerce Ministry confirmed the meeting, saying they agreed to have contact “after fully considering global expectations, Chinese interests and calls from U.S. businesses and consumers.” It comes amid growing U.S. market worry over the impact of the tariffs.
Utah dentists say they’re bracing for an increase in tooth decay among the state’s most vulnerable people. Utah's first-in-the-nation fluoride ban took effect Wednesday. It could be followed closely by a ban in Florida. The bill’s sponsor, Republican Rep. Stephanie Gricius, said she does not dispute that fluoride can have some benefits but thinks people should not be given it by the government without their informed consent. Republican Utah Gov. Spencer Cox signed the law against the recommendation of many dentists and national health organizations. They warn removing fluoride will harm tooth development, especially in young patients without regular access to dental care. People can add fluoride supplements to their water at home, but the cost may be prohibitive for some.
