      German CDU top brass back Armin Laschet as chancellor candidate

      The executive committee of Germany's Christian Democrats (CDU) backed party chairman Armin Laschet on Monday as the conservative bloc's candidate for chancellor at federal elections in September, party sources said. Committee members attested to Mr Laschet's "ability to bring opinions together, to develop a stance and to represent it consistently", the sources said. The candidacy question came to a head on Sunday when Markus Soeder, leader of the CDU's Bavarian sister party, the CSU, put himself forward to run and said he would settle the question soon and amicably with Mr Laschet, his rival.

      Poll: 98% of CEOs say Biden's tax hike would have significant effect on competitiveness

      The Business Roundtable today will release a survey in which 98% of 178 CEOs polled said that increasing the corporate tax rate from 21% to 28%, as President Biden proposed, would have a "moderately" to "very" significant adverse effect on their company's competitiveness. 71% of CEOs said it would negatively affect their ability to hire. Nearly two-thirds said it would result in slower wage growth for U.S. workers.

The justices could consider his case when they meet privately on Friday. It's a corner of the larger forfeiture issue, when federal, state or local officials take someone's property, without ever having to prove that it has been used for illicit purposes.

      Why Prince Philip’s great-grandchildren shouldn't attend the Royal funeral

      Of all the images that stood out during the televised funeral of Diana, Princess of Wales, there was one that has endured in the collective consciousness longer than any other: that of two boys who had just lost their mother, walking in sombre procession behind her coffin, while the world looked in upon their most private moment. Almost a quarter of a century later, has there been a change of heart within the monarchy about the role of children at Royal funerals? It is understood that the Duke's 10 great-grandchildren, who include Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, will not be in attendance at his funeral this Saturday.

      A US Air Force war game shows what the service needs to hold off — or win against — China in 2030

      The U.S. Air Force repelled a Chinese invasion of Taiwan during a massive war game last fall by relying on drones acting as a sensing grid, an advanced sixth-generation fighter jet able to penetrate the most contested environments, cargo planes dropping pallets of guided munitions and other novel technologies yet unseen on the modern battlefield. After much loss of life and equipment, the U.S. military was able to prevent a total takeover of Taiwan by confining Chinese forces to a single area. Furthermore, the air force that fought in the simulated conflict isn't one that exists today, nor is it one the service is seemingly on a path to realize.

      'Huge' explosion rocks St. Vincent as volcano keeps erupting

      La Soufriere volcano fired an enormous amount of ash and hot gas early Monday in the biggest explosive eruption yet since volcanic activity began on the eastern Caribbean island of St. Vincent late last week, with officials worried about the lives of those who have refused to evacuate. Experts called it a “huge explosion” that generated pyroclastic flows down the volcano's south and southwest flanks. “It's destroying everything in its path,” Erouscilla Joseph, director of the University of the West Indies' Seismic Research Center, told The Associated Press.

      Palace reveals Prince Philip redesigned Balmoral Castle's notorious heating system

      Prince Philip devised a special heating system to protect the paintings at Balmoral Castle, it has emerged as the Royal family paid tribute to his conservation work on its estates. The Palace revealed on Sunday that the Duke of Edinburgh was behind an initiative to install a heating system that responded to humidity rather than the outside temperature to create a less damaging atmosphere for the castle's many antiques. The Duke's fervent passion for horticulture and agriculture also led him to re-landscape many the Queen's estates and even get behind the wheel of a bulldozer to realise his vision.

      White Evangelicals’ Un-Christian Attacks on Raphael Warnock Attacks Say It All

      It would be charitable to call the white religious right's continuous attacks on Rev. Raphael Warnock, beginning from the moment he launched his successful bid to become the first Black U.S. senator from Georgia, merely un-Christian. Most recently, Georgia Baptist minister and Donald Trump loyalist Doug Collins, who once claimed Warnock's stance as a “pro-choice pastor” is an oxymoronic “lie from the bed of hell,” blamed the senator's condemnation of Georgia's new voting restrictions—but not the racist law itself—for MLB's decision to relocate its All-Star Game from the state, crying that “woke” Warnock “spread lies” about the legislation. Whether you are Christian or not, through a commitment to helping others we are able to save ourselves”—so enraged very-online white evangelicals that they spent the holiest day in the Christian calendar casting judgment, labeling Warnock a “heretic,” a “narcissistic heretic,” and an “actual heretic.” Leading the charge was Jenna Ellis, an attorney for Trump's failed coup d'état and proponent of the racist Kamala Harris birther lie.

      On Thursday, an attorney representing an associate of Gaetz in a fraud and sex trafficking case hinted that the congressman could face serious legal troubles. "I'm sure Matt Gaetz is not feeling very comfortable today," Fritz Scheller said outside a federal courthouse in Orlando, Florida, shortly after he and federal prosecutors disclosed that they had agreed to negotiate a plea deal. Gaetz, a Republican firebrand and staunch defender of former President Donald Trump, has been the subject of controversy since The New York Times reported that the Justice Department is investigating whether he had a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old and paid for her to travel across state lines – a violat...

The dog-loving monarch surprised palace staff when she requested that they begin searching for a pair of pets to replace her beloved pooches.
