New Jersey is always the center of the world, but especially for the next month as the World Cup comes to town. For everyone traveling to New Jersey for the first time, here are some things you should know ➡️

UFC Freedom 250 is facing a chaotic weather setup on the White House South Lawn, with a 60% chance of thunderstorms, heavy downpours, and wind gusts up to 34 mph threatening to delay the outdoor fights. On top of the storm risk, brutal D.C. humidity is driving a triple-digit heat index alongside massive swarms of mosquitos and gnats that fighters will have to battle inside the cage. While the venue’s massive 92-foot overhang will keep the octagon dry, a single lightning strike within eight miles will trigger an automatic 30-minute freeze on the entire event.

EXCLUSIVE: Noncitizens in New Jersey were on the voter rolls for years — and some even cast ballots before asking to be removed, according to documents obtained through public records requests. Records reviewed by the NJGOP and RNC show multiple noncitizens seeking citizenship told election officials they were unknowingly registered to vote, with several pointing to the DMV as the source. Most had no voting history, but county records show at least some voted in elections before being removed from the rolls.

This bill was just dropped by Democrat lawmakers. A 100% tax rate tells you everything you need to know about how some politicians think. They know you earned the money. They just think it’s theirs. Today it's a group they dislike. Tomorrow it could be anyone. Once government claims the power to take 100% of your income, the debate is over. They've decided your property rights exist only at their discretion. The precedent is terrifying.
