If doctors can catch breast cancer early enough, the chances of survival are about 90%. In order to catch it early enough, women over the age of 40 usually get annual mammograms, paid for by their health insurance. Roughly half of those women have dense breast tissue that requires additional screenings, however, which aren’t always covered by insurance. Also: a record-high stock market and the state of the economy surrounding the Strait of Hormuz.
The Daily Signal - High Stakes for High Tech: Virginia’s Data Center Controversy
Once again, the issue of Data Centers are coming up in Virginia as many the local boards of supervisors are making plans to at least set up “commissions” to study more regulations on this industry.
The nay-sayers point to the energy load required by these centers as they pump up to 70% of internet traffic through Virginia. However, as we laid out in our June 10th column, it’s the politicians that put us in this pickle and they are the ones we will need to get us out of it.
We sat down with Caleb Taylor, policy director of the Virginia Institute for Public Policy, to find out what the solutions should really look like and how long they could take to implement.

Civil organisations in Mozambique say at least 120 children have been kidnapped by insurgents in the north of the country. The Human Rights Watch group warn of a rise in abductions in the country's troubled nothern province of Cabo Delgado.

Native America Calling - Friday, June 27, 2025 – Tulsa takes new tack on tribal jurisdiction
The Muscogee Nation will assume some law enforcement duties in the city of Tulsa, Okla., when it comes to tribal citizens. The development over jurisdiction ends a federal lawsuit filed by the Muscogee Nation in the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court’s landmark McGirt decision in 2020. The Cherokee and Osage Nations also potentially have jurisdiction claims in Tulsa and other cities. Local law enforcement officials and Gov. Kevin Stitt (R-OK) oppose the agreement, saying it creates a two-tiered system of justice. We’ll find out what the new agreement solves and what it leaves unanswered.
Also, tribes connected to Florida are speaking out against the Trump administration’s fast track plans to establish a detention center for immigration actions near the Florida Everglades. Miccosukee and Seminole tribal officials and citizens say the center, dubbed the “Alligator Alcatraz,” infringes on land that is their “cultural, spiritual, and historical identity.”
