(Photo by ANGELA WEISS / AFP via Getty Images) New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced that his new free child care programs will “not ask the immigration status” of the children involved, proclaiming that his administration is “proud” that New York City is an “immigrant city.” Mamdani explicitly stated that immigration status would not be checked, suggesting that undocumented children would be included. The initiative, known as the Universal Child Care Expansion, prioritizes adding seats in 3-K and pre-K programs for all families, regardless of income or immigration status, with a phased rollout starting in underserved neighborhoods. However, critics argue that extending benefits to non-citizens will strain the city’s resources and raise questions about taxpayer equity.   “We have policies in place, policies that hav...

The discovery is the latest of many breakthroughs by NASA’s Mars missions. “It took multiple spacecraft over several years to solve this mystery, and now we know there is liquid water on the surface of this cold, desert planet,” said Michael Meyer, lead scientist for NASA’s Mars Exploration Program at the agency’s headquarters in Washington. “It seems that the more we study Mars, the more we learn how life could be supported and where there are resources to support life in the future.”  This animation simulates a fly-around look at one of the places on Mars where dark streaks advance down slopes during warm seasons, possibly involving liquid water. This site is within Hale Crater. The streaks are roughly the length of a football field. There are eight co-authors of the Nature Geoscience paper, including Mary Beth Wilhelm at NASA’s Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, California and Georgia Tech; CRISM Principal Investigator Scott Murchie of the Johns Hopkins University Applied Ph...

Republicans and Minnesota residents have consistently questioned the rapid growth of Omar’s (D-Minn.) net worth, contrasting her current financial status with her background as they call for a deeper look into her business dealings and campaign expenditures. “I was told that Ilhan Omar is worth ...

The court found him guilty of rebellion for attempting to give the martial law decree legal cover via a Cabinet meeting, while also convicting him of perjury and the destruction of evidence. On the night of December 3, 2024, President Yoon abruptly declared martial law, labeling the opposition-controlled National Assembly a “den of criminals” and accusing lawmakers of being “anti-sta...

On Wednesday morning, the president addressed a room of nearly 3,000 high-level participants from business and government for the World Economic Forum (WEF)’s annual summit. “It’s the United States alone that can protect this giant mass of land, this giant piece of ice, develop it, and improve it and make it so that it’s good for Europe — and safe for Europe and good for us,” Trump said. “And that’s the reason I’m seeking immediate negotiations to once again discuss the acquisition of Greenland by the United States.
