Chinese Military Drills Send ‘Stern Warning’ After U.S. Arms Sales to Taiwan. China launched major military exercises in the waters and airspace around Taiwan Monday in what it called a “stern warning” against outside interference in Chinese affairs, as tensions grow with the U.S. and Japan over the security of the island. Pete Hegseth Thinks Boot Camp Got Too Soft. If the trainees expected to be chewed out as they formed lines and awaited orders, they were disappointed. There were no Hollywood theatrics. No screaming, red-faced drill instructors. No unprintable insults. The mood was calm, professional, business-like. Now, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth wants to turn back the clock.  Guest: Nick Richardson  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms:   ---    Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.

Democrats and some Republicans question how the information will be used.  Neal Kurk fought for privacy rights for three decades as a Republican state lawmaker in New Hampshire. Now he is joining a fight in the famously libertarian haven to keep the federal government from obtaining a list of the state’s voters.  “This is an attempt to exercise federal interference in what is really a state issue,” said Kurk, who is part of a bipartisan group trying to intervene in a lawsuit brought by the Justice Department to get that list. “In New Hampshire, we’re always trying to make sure that our voter lists are accurate.”  The Trump administration wants to control how data centers connect to the power grid  At a conference of state utility regulators in Seattle, a group of Trump administration officials got an earful of complaints about a plan the White House is pushing for the federal government to take control of part of the country’s power grid in the ser
