Four in 10 Americans have no retirement savings — a slow-moving crisis that spans every generation. 57% of young workers aged 18 to 34 have no retirement plan, 42% of mid-career workers aged 34 to 54 have no retirement account, and 40% of older workers aged 55 to 65 still have nothing saved. 29% of current retirees report having no savings. Americans believe they need approximately $2.1 million to retire comfortably, but 62% have less than $150,000 saved and the average retirement account holds approximately $288,700.

The U.S. Navy’s F/A-18 Super Hornet Service Life Extension Program has extended the aircraft from 6,000 flight hours all the way to 10,000 — buying years of additional service life for a 1970s McDonnell Douglas-Northrop design while the Navy waits for the F/A-XX sixth-generation fighter. The Super Hornet has been retrofitted with conformal fuel tanks designed to reduce radar signature, rounded external weapons pods, Magic Carpet glide-slope landing software, the Joint Helmet-Mounted Cueing System, and an enhanced AESA radar.

The U.S. Navy’s most advanced warships — the USS Gerald R. Ford and USS Zumwalt, among them — are paradoxically more vulnerable to fire than older ships. The USS Zumwalt operates a Total Ship Computing Environment with more than 6 million lines of code, with wiring that runs through compartments exposed to ocean salt and high humidity. The USS Gerald R. Ford uses electromagnetic aircraft launch systems running at extremely high voltages and currents — generating significant heat. Both ships use integrated power systems that distribute electricity for propulsion and weapons together.
The only pass that Maurice Britt caught during his brief NFL career went for a 45-yard touchdown.
Britt played nine games for the Detroit Lions in 1941 before the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, prompting the United States’ entry into World War II. While Britt did not particularly distinguish himself on the professional football field, his exploits on the battlefield were extraordinary.
On paper, Vladimir Putin is a modestly compensated public servant. The Kremlin’s official disclosures list his annual salary at roughly $140,000. His declared personal assets — a small apartment in St. Petersburg, three Russian cars, a Soviet-era trailer — would not be out of place in the financial filings of a mid-career American mayor. The official record describes a Russian president living, more or less, like a retired schoolteacher. The off-paper estimates tell a fundamentally different story.
Putin Is a Thief, and Russia Is the Victim

The large scale withdrawal of U.S. Army MIM-104 Patriot and THAAD long range air defence systems from South Korea have drawn significant attention to the extent of the East Asian country’s reliance on the United States for the security of its air space, while raising calls in Seoul, including from President Lee Jae Myung, to reduce this dependance.

Footage released by Russian sources has for the first time shown Su-34M strike fighters with Algerian Air Force markings, providing the first confirmation that the aircraft have been delivered to the service as its export client. Although images of the aircraft in desert colours first surfaced in August 2025, it was not confirmed which client they were produced for, with Iran and Sudan considered possible future operators to replace their Su-24M fighters.
Japanese Defence Minister Shinjiro Koizumi has warned of growing challenges to the country’s air defences, making remarks during a visit to Chitose Air Base on the northern island of Hokkaido on May 23 where he watched fighter pilots rehearse one of the most demanding routine missions in the armed forces. Fighters were launched on emergency intercept against Russian military aircraft approaching the country’s airspace, which they have conducted approximately four times a year during Fiscal Year 2025.
