just now (1770+ words) INDIANAPOLIS " As the redistricting battle began to pick up steam in Indiana last month, state Sen. Jean Leising's grandchildren were receiving odd text messages. Ads from little-known outside groups had spliced the longtime Republican lawmaker's image next to prominent Democrats like New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker and California Gov. Gavin Newsom. Some of the messaging was sloppy, referring to Leising as "him." "The negative campaigning just put me over the top," she said in an interview with 13WTHR in Indianapolis, an NBC News affiliate, at the time. "He may wonder why Indiana is struggling to get on board. Well, it's probably the antics they used." The result was one of the biggest rejections that Trump, who has otherwise largely ruled over the GOP with an iron fist, has faced since returning to office, and it could cost the…...

just now (490+ words) Schwartz said broader crypto ecosystems improve utility while the XRP Ledger continues to serve as the core settlement layer. His response came after announcements linking XRP to Solana and Ethereum through regulated custodial structures.

just now (437+ words) Duffy puts pressure on Hochul to revoke illegally issued licenses from foreign drivers. On Friday morning, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy revealed that an audit from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration found that over half of New York state's non-domiciled CDLs were issued illegally. The audit sampled 200 records and discovered that 107, or 53%, were issued in violation of federal law. 'What we uncovered in New York is not an administrative oversight.' There are reportedly 32,000 active non-domiciled CDLs that were issued by New York. According to the DOT, the New York Department of Motor Vehicles defaulted to issuing eight-year licenses to foreign drivers who applied for non-REAL ID licenses, regardless of when their legal status expired. "This systemic failure allows the state to blindly grant long-term commercial driving privileges to foreigners that expire long after the expiration of their lawful presence in…...
