Global power, from AI to the Epstein case
Christa Case Bryant
Oil-rich Norway鈥檚 hunt for energy solutions underscores the power demands of the AI age. In a global saga about another kind of power and how elites wield it, Congress looks to glean new information in a closed-door deposition today about the circumstances of Jeffrey Epstein鈥檚 death. And American voters are being asked to choose between Republicans who have stood up to President Donald Trump and challengers who vow to clear the way for his America First agenda.
After Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy鈥檚 defeat on Saturday, the next test comes in Kentucky鈥檚 primary on Tuesday, which features Trump-backed Navy SEAL Ed Gallrein and Thomas Massie 鈥� a consistent critic of his own party, from its handling of the Epstein case to its failure to rein in national debt.
