Tropical Storm Imelda formed Sunday, joining the monster Hurricane Humberto in the Atlantic, and forecasters warned it'll likely bring heavy rains to the Carolinas.The big picture: Imelda is expected to strengthen over the Bahamas on Monday and become a major hurricane that night or early Tuesday. Forecasters expect the U.S. East Coast to be spared the worst of it — though there's a chance of heavy rainfall in the Southeast, and the Carolinas could see several inches of rain that may trigger flooding.National Hurricane Center deputy director Jamie Rhome said in a Sunday evening video post that while the impacts [...]

At least 10 people were shot, and four killed, after a shooting and fire at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc, Michigan, authorities confirmed Sunday.The big picture: Grand Blanc Township Police Chief William Renye said at a midday news conference that he expects more victims to be found at the scene, but couldn't say if they expected their injuries to be from the shooting, the fire, or both.The latest: The death toll rose to four after "a couple additional bodies" were found in the chapel, Police Chief William Renye said during a briefing that began [...]

President Trump suggested Sunday evening that the Department of Justice may be investigating former FBI Director Christopher Wray.The big picture: Three days after another Trump foe and former FBI director, James Comey, was indicted, the president during an interview with NBC accused Wray of "inappropriate" behavior and said he "would think" that the DOJ is investigating him.Why it matters: The indictment of Comey on charges that he denies of making false statements to Congress and obstructing its investigation into the Russia probe delivered the president and the MAGA movement their first real taste of legal retribution, per Axios Tal Axelrod [...]

Bad Bunny is the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show headline performer, per social media posts from the singer, the NFL, Apple Music and Roc Nation on Sunday night.What he's saying: "What I'm feeling goes beyond myself. It's for those who came before me and ran countless yards so I could come in and score a touchdown," the 31-year-old Puerto Rican singer said in a media statement."This is for my people, my culture and our history. Ve y dile a tu abuela, que seremos el Halftime Show Del Super Bowl," he added. The big picture: Speculation had been building before the [...]

Oregon and Portland are suing President Trump in an effort to block his move to deploy National Guard troops to the state's largest city.The big picture: The lawsuit that was filed on Sunday noted that following Trump's directive, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had signed a memorandum "calling 200 members of the Oregon National Guard into federal service for a period of 60 days" — which the suit called "patently unlawful."Driving the news: Trump authorized troops in Portland on Saturday in an effort to quash protests at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in the Democrat-led city that began in [...]

Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) said that the White House's threatened firings if a government shutdown proceeds don't "have to happen" if Democrats sign onto a GOP plan to keep the government open.The big picture: Still, Democrats, including Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), don't seem to be budging and are largely dismissing the Trump administration's warning to prepare for mass shakeups to an already unrecognizable federal workforce.Driving the news: "They're playing with fire, and they know it," the Republican leader said on NBC News' "Meet the Press." He did not directly answer whether he supported mass firings of federal [...]

Farmers will need government relief this year after the trade war choked off access to key markets, Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) said Sunday.Why it matters: Thune's comment, following a promise from President Trump earlier in the week, sets up a potential battle over what would likely be a multibillion-dollar package — and a separate fight over why it was needed in the first place. Catch up quick: China has stopped buying U.S. soybeans, depriving American farmers of their largest export market.That happened months ago, but the issue came back to the fore this week when the U.S. government [...]

President Trump told Axios in an interview Sunday that negotiations over his plan to end the war in Gaza are "at their final stages" and contended a deal could open the way for wider peace in the Middle East.Why it matters: This is the most significant effort to date to end the war.More than 66,000 Palestinians have been killed since the Oct. 7, 2023, attacks on Israel, according to the Hamas-controlled Gaza health ministry.What he's saying: "Everybody has come together to get a deal, but we still have to get it done," Trump told Axios."The Arab countries were fantastic to [...]

With a deadline to fund the government just around the corner, lawmakers appeared locked in a battle of blame on Sunday.The big picture: After President Trump canceled a prior meeting with Democratic leadership, he's now set to sit down with the top four congressional leaders on Monday, but finding common ground to craft a deal seems a far-fetched feat. Republican leadership says it's up to Democrats to keep the lights on despite intense grassroots pressure they face, while Democrats say the GOP is jeopardizing Americans' health care by not addressing the Affordable Care Act tax credits due to expire at [...]

A growing number of Democratic officials are embracing tough-on-crime strategies in ways not seen since the 1990s, seeking to counter President Trump's focus on high violent crime rates in Democrat-led cities.Why it matters: Homicides are declining nationally. But shootings in Chicago and other cities — along with high-profile slayings, especially the fatal stabbing of a Ukrainian refugee on a light-rail train in Charlotte, N.C. — have inspired moderate Democrats to push stepped-up anti-crime plans.The big picture: From New Jersey to New Mexico, Democrats are calling for more police officers, tougher bail guidelines for repeat offenders, fewer early releases from jails [...]

Adapted from CSIS; Chart: Axios VisualsHalfway through 2025, attacks by far-left extremists outpaced far-right violence for the first time in more than three decades, according to new research from the Center for Strategic & International Studies.Why it matters: America's domestic terrorism landscape has undergone a remarkable inversion since President Trump took office, as his policies have eased grievances on the far right while intensifying anger on the far left.Far-right violence has historically been more frequent and more lethal, but plunged dramatically over the first six months of 2025.Despite the uptick in high-profile attacks like the assassination of Charlie Kirk, political [...]

Instead of putting "tariff" on the tag, some retailers are slipping costs into shipping, fees or relabels.Why it matters: Trade duties and new import rules are driving up retailer costs, especially in apparel, furniture, holiday décor and toys. Those costs are starting to be passed to consumers.The big picture: Retailers are reshaping how prices show up, including raising shipping fees on items that face duties after the late-August end of the "de minimis" exemption on postal shipments to the U.S. worth less than $800.Vague charges like "processing" or "import fees" are appearing more often at checkout. Such shifting of tariff [...]

Colombian President Gustavo Petro accused President Trump on Saturday of violating "founding principles" of the United Nations after the U.S. State Department announced it will revoke the Colombian president's visa.The big picture: The Trump administration believes Petro, a left-leaning leader who's an ally of Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro, wants to pick a fight with the U.S. president ahead of the Colombia's presidential elections next year.Petro is barred from reelection but and the U.S. does not want one of his allies to succeed. The U.S. position: it opposes Petro and supports the Colombian people.Context: The State Department said, on Friday, it [...]

President Trump authorized military troops in Portland, Oregon, on Saturday, giving them authority to use "full force." The big picture: After sending the National Guard to Washington, D.C. and Los Angeles, this summer, the president has made public his consideration of deploying troops to Democrat-led cities including Portland, New Orleans and Chicago.State of play: "At the request of Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, I am directing Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to provide all necessary Troops to protect War ravaged Portland, and any of our ICE Facilities under siege from attack by Antifa, and other domestic terrorists," Trump said [...]

Starting with our interview last spring with Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, where he foresaw a white-collar bloodbath, we've been warning of a jobs crisis unfolding in plain sight across America.Last week, Mike Allen and I talked privately with 20 different CEOs of a wide range of companies. Every single one of them said they're reducing their hiring ambitions at the dawn of AI.Why it matters: Don't trust us. Listen to Amodei, who's building AI technology, and top CEOs as they freeze or reduce hiring because of AI.Amodei, in two interviews with us — one over the phone and the other [...]

President Trump and his administration frequently boast that he's "been right about everything" and that his policies have ushered in the "Golden Age" of America.The big picture: However, some of the president's sweeping claims, including slashing drug costs, combating fentanyl deaths and supercharging the American economy through tariffs, fall flat when compared to the actual data. Driving the news: Last week, the president said that his administration will be "reducing drug costs over the next year ... by not 50 or 60%, by a 1,000%."In response to Axios' request for clarification on the president's remarks, the White House said that [...]

The indictment of former FBI Director James Comey has delivered President Trump and the MAGA movement their first real taste of legal retribution — and likely not their last. Why it matters: To Democrats and the legal establishment, the charges against Comey for obstruction of justice and lying to Congress represent one of the most brazen collapses of prosecutorial independence in U.S. history.To Trump's base, the indictment is vindication — a long-awaited strike against a "Deep State" villain they've obsessed over for nearly a decade.Now, MAGA's biggest question is how much further Trump will go in enforcing the political "accountability" [...]

U.S. Army soldiers who took part in the 1890 slaughter of Lakota men, women and children at Wounded Knee will keep their medals posthumously, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced on social media Thursday.Why it matters: The move halts some lawmakers' push to revoke medals tied to the massacre on South Dakota's present-day Oglala Sioux tribal lands — an event Native Americans see as a painful climax of Indigenous removal. The big picture: The decision follows the Trump administration's re-interpretation of civil rights laws and history to focus on "anti-white racism".The administration has been purging and rewriting federal web pages' stories [...]

Several official congressional trips that were scheduled for next week have been canceled due to the possibility of a government shutdown, Axios has learned.Why it matters: It's one of the starkest indicators yet that lawmakers on Capitol Hill are hunkering down for a shutdown as Republican and Democratic leadership appear far from a deal.Federal funding is set to run out at midnight on Sept. 30 unless Senate Democrats agree to a deal with Republicans to pass a short-term spending measure.Senior Democratic and Republican sources stressed that these trips are government-funded — making it a financial and logistical nightmare to try [...]

"Jimmy Kimmel Live!" will return to Nexstar and Sinclair's ABC affiliates Friday evening, the companies said. Why it matters: The move will bring the show back to the markets where it was blacked out for more than a week.What they're saying: Both Sinclair and Nexstar emphasized their original decision to stop airing the show was made independently and not due to government pressure."Our decision to preempt this program was independent of any government interaction or influence. Free speech provides broadcasters with the right to exercise judgment as to the content on their local stations," Sinclair said in a statement."While we [...]

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and his staff are closely coordinating their government shutdown strategy with outside liberal groups, Axios has learned.Why it matters: The same groups slammed Schumer earlier this year for caving on government funding. This time, the Democratic leader is playing to his base.Multiple progressive groups told Axios that they've had weekly meetings and conversations with Schumer and his team over the last two months.In the private talks, grassroots leaders have stressed the need for Schumer and Democrats to fight harder against President Trump and Republicans. Backing down and helping fund the government, like Schumer did [...]

Elon Musk, Peter Thiel and Steve Bannon are all named in copies of Jeffrey Epstein's daily schedules released Friday by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee.Why it matters: The schedules make reference to Musk possibly flying to an "island" in 2014, and Thiel and Bannon apparently dining with Epstein as recently as 2017 and 2019, respectively."It should be clear to every American that Jeffrey Epstein was friends with some of the most powerful and wealthiest men in the world," Oversight Committee Democrats spokesperson Sara Guerrero said in a statement."Every new document produced provides new information as we work to bring [...]

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky asked President Trump during their meeting on Tuesday to provide Ukraine with Tomahawk missiles, which could give Ukraine the ability to strike as far into Russia as Moscow.The intrigue: Zelensky told "The Axios Show" on Wednesday that he'd asked Trump for an additional weapons system that could force Russian President Vladimir Putin to enter peace talks — perhaps without Ukraine even having to use it.Between the lines: Zelensky did not name that weapons system during his interview with Axios' Barak Ravid, but he said that if Russia knew Ukraine had it, the pressure to talk would [...]

Data: Bureau of Economic Analysis; Chart: Axios VisualsFor all the sense of angst about the U.S. economy of late, the American consumer continues powering growth forward. New data out this morning confirms that trajectory continued through late summer.Why it matters: All those recession warnings from earlier in the year are looking flat wrong. When consumers keep spending (which they are) and businesses keep investing (which they also are), the economy can't — almost as a matter of arithmetic — fall into a contraction.Driving the news: Personal consumption expenditures rose 0.6% in August, the Commerce Department said this morning, or 0.4% [...]

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told "The Axios Show" that in the opening hours of Russia's invasion, he could not have imagined still being alive and in office 3.5 years later.The big picture: The fact that the war is ongoing is both deeply tragic and quite remarkable, given initial expectations among many Western officials and military experts that Russia would steamroll through the Ukrainian lines.What he's saying: Axios' Barak Ravid asked Zelensky if, at the beginning of the war, he thought he would still be "sitting here" in 2025."Of course not. 100%, no," Zelensky responded.Flashback: Ravid's question referenced a plea for [...]

The vast majority of officials and diplomats in the UN General Assembly Hall appeared to walk out as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took the stage for his address on Friday.Why it matters: Israel is deeply isolated internationally as it presses on with the war in Gaza. Outside of President Trump, Netanyahu — who faces war crime charges from the ICC — has very few allies on the global stage.Driving the news: Netanyahu said in his speech that Israel "will finish the job" in Gaza, and will do so as quickly as possibleAhead of the speech, he ordered Israel's military [...]

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky offered a warning to Vladimir Putin, new details about his meeting with President Trump, and a pledge about his own political future in an interview with "The Axios Show."Inside the room: The interview took place on Wednesday night in New York, immediately before Zelensky departed the UN General Assembly for Kyiv.Zelensky agreed to speak in English at the last moment. Despite his frequent self-effacing comments about his lack of fluency, his points came through loud and clear.Zelensky's voice quivered with emotion at multiple points during the interview, in particular when he was addressing Ukrainian children kidnapped [...]

The Trump administration is facing conflicting political pressures after Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said the Food and Drug Administration will "study" adding safety restrictions on abortion pills.Why it matters: New limits like requiring in-person prescribing of the widely used abortion drug mifepristone would severely limit access to abortion in states with bans.Between the lines: An FDA safety review sits well with many in the Republican base who are strongly anti-abortion and are pushing hard for new restrictions.On the other hand, President Trump repeatedly pledged during the campaign last year that he would leave abortion policy to the states, [...]

Map: Kavya Beheraj/AxiosWeeks of Russian incursions into NATO skies have pushed the U.S.-led alliance to the brink of an explosive choice: strike back or stand down.Why it matters: With peace talks frozen and nuclear threats flying, NATO and Russia are closer to a direct military confrontation than at any point since the Cold War.President Trump, long reluctant to confront Moscow, stunned allies this week by saying he supports shooting down Russian aircraft if the incursions continue.The Kremlin's response was a blunt one: shoot down a Russian jet, and war will follow.The big picture: NATO officials believe Russia is deliberately testing [...]

President Trump made historic gains for the GOP among Latino voters last year, but polls and other indicators suggest their support for him is falling amid growing anger over his handling of the economy and immigration.Why it matters: Latinos' rising discontent could mean trouble for the GOP heading into the 2026 midterms, and undermine Republican redistricting efforts — namely in Texas — partly aimed at exploiting the party's recent gains among such voters.The big picture: Trump's tariffs have South Texas farmers on edge as crop sales decline, while Latino small-business owners — from bootmakers to small retailers — say their [...]

I’m thinking about going to Sola Luna Festival in Thailand for New Year’s. Has anyone here been? How was the vibe, organization, and overall experience? For context, my benchmark is Fusion Festival in Germany, I really value the mix of music, art, workshops, and community feel. I’m wondering if Sola Luna offers anything close to that, or if it’s more of a raw beach party with psytrance. Would love to hear any firsthand reviews or advice before I book. 🙏 submitted by /u/Brilliant-Topic-4899 [link] [comments] [...]

I found Adam Pits like a year ago, it was a strange mix because it was clearly techno, but the structure had so much off goa and psy in it. Latest album is really interesting, like a progressive psy album but made in techno.

In the global agri-food system, most agricultural goods are produced in the Global South but value is captured by countries of the Global North through growth and control of the post-farmgate sectors. This is shown by a study from the Institute of Environmental Science and Technology at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (ICTA-UAB), which reveals that between 1995 and 2020, non-agricultural sectors absorbed much of the value added in global agri-food systems. These sectors are disproportionately dominated by countries of the Global North. [...]

Some species of termites are known to cultivate their own crops of fungus within their nests, similar to the way humans maintain farms to feed people. One such species is Odontotermes obesus, which cultivates the fungus Termitomyces. The relationship between these termites and the fungus can be thought of as a sort of symbiotic one. In this case, Termitomyces feeds the termites, and the termites protect the fungus from an invasive "weed-like" fungus called Pseudoxylaria. Pseudoxylaria can quickly overrun Termitomyces if left to its own devices. [...]
