I know that crypto is a big thing and they like it. A lot of people like it, the people behind me like it. My sons are handling that. My family is handling it. And I guess they get investments from different people, but I'm notI have all I can handle right now with Iran and with Russia and Ukraine and with all the things we're doing. So I don't know.

W hen does a separatist movement become a threat to Canada's national security? This is a question hanging in the air in Alberta. People are asking how it can possibly be that the very same individuals who are leading the separatist movement can also be three meetings deep into a relationship with senior officials of the Donald Trump administration in Washington, with a fourth scheduled for this month.

Entrants will be required to write three- to five-page white papers that explain their idea and how they would shape markets and strengthen the space economy or national security. Papers are due by June 30, and judging will be complete by August 15. As an additional incentive, the best ideas will be briefed to relevant policymakers, including key members of Congress, NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman, and Saltzman, of the Space Force.

People across the UK could benefit from faster, safer and more reliable public services as leading British AI specialists join government to modernise critical systems used every day from public safety to transport maintenance.

CNN's chief data analyst Harry Enten warned that President Donald Trump's push to acquire Greenland is hurting his polling numbers even more than the controversy surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein files last year, calling the push for the Arctic territory the most unpopular thing the president can do. New figures from a Reuters/IPSOS poll, however, show that domestically, the approval of the idea of buying Greenland with federal money sits at 40 points in the negative.

As we enter 2026, we mark this anniversary by bringing together three leaders navigating the most complex intersection of technology, geopolitics, and organizational change we have ever witnessed. André Pienaar, Dr. David Bray, and Ken Banta joined us to discuss what boards and CEOs must understand to remain competitive in an era defined by cascading disruptions and incomplete information. The conversation focused on the critical questions every board should be asking this year.

Mexico has sent another 37 alleged members of Mexican criminal organisations to the United States, the country's security minister said, amid US President Donald Trump's threat of ground attacks against drug cartels in the region. The handover of alleged drug cartel members on Tuesday is the third major transfer to the US in the past year and brings the total number of suspects transferred to 92.

The global attack on nature is threatening the UK's national security, government intelligence chiefs have warned, as the increasingly likely collapse of vitally important natural systems would bring mass migration, food shortages and price rises, and global disorder. Food supplies are particularly at risk, as without significant increases, the UK would be unable to compete with other nations for scarce resources, a report to ministers warns.

U.S. President Donald Trump suggested Friday that he may punish countries with tariffs if they don't back the U.S. controlling Greenland, a message that came as a bipartisan Congressional delegation sought to lower tensions in the Danish capital. Trump for months has insisted that the U.S. should control Greenland, a semiautonomous territory of NATO ally Denmark, and said earlier this week that anything less than the Arctic island being in U.S. hands would be "unacceptable."

The Trump administration is directing employees at the U.S. Department of Agriculture to investigate foreign scientists who collaborate with the agency on research papers for evidence of "subversive or criminal activity." The new directive, part of a broader effort to increase scrutiny of research done with foreign partners, asks workers in the agency's research arm to use Google to check the backgrounds of all foreign nationals collaborating with its scientists.

The US government has introduced new import tariffs on advanced AI chips from Nvidia and AMD, with the aim of channelling part of the proceeds from sales to China directly into the US treasury. According to the Financial Times, the measure is part of President Donald Trump's broader trade and industrial policy, which explicitly intertwines economic transactions and national security.

I can confirm what the attorney general stated and the president as well, which is that the individual, unfortunately, a contractor at the Pentagon, chose to unlawfully leak classified and very serious information to this Washington Post reporter. She continued: Hence, why the reporter's home was looked into by the FBI, and rightfully so. And the administration is not going to tolerate leaks, especially from within the national security apparatus of the United States government that put our nation's integrity national security at risk.

The Trump administration placed new security requirements on Nividia's semiconductor sales to China, but essentially greenlighted the export of its powerful H200 artificial intelligence chips to Chinese buyers. Nvidia must ensure that there is an adequate supply in the U.S., and the H200 chips must undergo a third-party review before being exported to China, according to new rules set by the Commerce Department's Bureau of Industry and Security. But the new rules lower the bar for exports. China won't be allowed to use the chips for military purposes and is not allowed to import more than 50% of the chips sold to U.S. customers.

This bipartisan legislation makes clear that US taxpayer dollars cannot be used for actions that would fracture NATO and violate our own commitments to NATO, said Shaheen, who represents the state of New Hampshire, in a statement. This bill sends a clear message that recent rhetoric around Greenland deeply undermines America's own national security interests and faces bipartisan opposition in Congress, the Democratic senator said.

The government has insisted no decision has been made on a Chinese mega-embassy in London, after MPs on all sides warned of a potential threat to national security. The Conservatives claimed the controversial scheme would give China a "launch-pad for economic warfare". Labour, Tory, Liberal Democrat, DUP and SNP MPs all urged the government to reject the embassy plans to prevent espionage and guard against the "transnational repression" of Hong Kongers in the UK, in an urgent Commons debate.

Revolution Wind has "demonstrated likelihood of success on the merits of its underlying claims" and is is "likely to suffer irreparable harm in the absence of an injunction," Judge Royce Lamberth of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia said in a Monday order. Catch up quick: It's one of five under-construction wind projects off the Atlantic Coast that Trump administration officials halted last month, citing classified national security risks.
