U.S. Republican Rep. Derrick Van Orden sent out a series of posts earlier this week, suggesting he would volunteer to take part in the execution of Nidal Hasan, a former U.S. Army psychiatrist who killed 13 people in Fort Hood, Texas in 2009.
On Oct. 5, Van Orden posted to X, saying he would free up his schedule.
"These radial [sic]Islamist need to get the message: You kill Americans, someone else will be raising your children," he said in a 7:49 p.m. post.
At 10:18 p.m. the same night, he said "vollenteer" in response to a post from Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, which was "Justice."
Bill Christofferson opines at Wisconsin Examiner on the billionaries' preferred candidate:
Yet Tom Tiffany, Trump’s endorsed candidate for governor and a 100% supporter of his policies — which almost all poll even worse than Trump himself — is virtually tied with Dem David Crowley. A good chunk of the electorate has not yet made the Tiffany-Trump connection. That may be the deciding factor over the home stretch.
Trump’s Iran war and its impact on skyrocketing gasoline and diesel prices are widely unpopular, and Tiffany has repeatedly voted to support the war and to leave Trump unchecked. One new Crowley TV spot takes Tiffany’s voting record head-on, calling Tiffany “loyal to Trump, not Wisconsin.” Trump is toxic. Crowley is not just running against “three billionaires” who have bought Tiffany with over $45 million — the majority of the money raised by the Republican gubernatorial campaign. Diane Hendricks, along with Richard and Elizabeth Uihlein, are Trump’s billionaires. [emphasis added]
Luria, who has shepherded tens of thousands of clients over the years, was hopeful his business might get a boost in 2026 as Washington celebrated America’s 250th anniversary. Instead, it has mostly been a bust.
And it isn’t just Luria feeling the pain. Tour guides across the District say their business has cratered this year, in some cases as much as 70 percent as a number of Washington’s iconic sites are closed, under construction or awaiting repairs. Adding to the downturn, guides say, is that many tourists, particularly international visitors, are angered by President Donald Trump’s attacks on longtime allies, the imposition of hard-hitting tariffs, and the administration’s visa and immigration policies.

Stone House Development and Threshold Development, both of Madison, secured initial city approval in 2024 to redevelop the more than 60-acre farm along Milwaukee Street with roughly 1,000 units of housing and other neighborhood amenities.
Plans for the subdivision call for multiple new roads to be added and existing roads extended north of Milwaukee Street, while much of the land toward the back of the site will be set aside for stormwater management and public parkland.
The subdivision is called Tapestry, said Stone House president Helen Bradbury.
“It's going to be beautiful,” Bradbury said. “It's going to be a very walkable, bikeable, kid-friendly, dog-friendly subdivision. That's our dream.”
The first building going up along Milwaukee Street, just east of Starkweather Creek, will be four stories tall and contain about 156 apartments and 6,200 square feet of commercial space, according to plans Threshold submitted to the city last year. Threshold has begun the application process for a second building located behind the first, said Matt Mikolajewski, Madison’s economic development director.
The future of 65 acres of Voit Farm on Madison’s east side could include a pedestrian/bike path connecting nearby green spaces, streets that lay flush with the curb, a dog park, a community garden and some 1,500 to 1,700 units of housing.
At a neighborhood meeting on Thursday night, presenters representing Starkweather Creek, LLC — the team of Threshold Development and Stone House Development — bookended their Power Point with an emphasis on “re-wilded” natural space.
They also delineated a proposed street grid, which would extend Leon, Harding and Walter streets north and create a new street (Starkweather Street, east to west) between four- to six-story residential buildings, the highest on the plot.
A team of prominent developers is proposing to build up to 1,100 rental and owner-occupied housing units, commercial space and restored open spaces on a large former family farm on the city’s East Side.
Stone House Development and Threshold Development, both of Madison, have submitted land use and subdivision plat applications to move forward with the redevelopment of the roughly 67-acre farm with a pond held by the Voit family for some 165 years along Milwaukee Street just east of Starkweather Creek.
The development partners are proposing 13 new parcels on the property be zoned for residential development of up to 1,100 housing units, with the potential of 20% of them being lower cost.
Voit Farm has been one of the most recognizable East Side landmarks for over 160 years. As the rest of the neighborhood, the city, and the world in general continued the inexorable march of progress, Voit Farm stood pat. Last year the farm was finally torn down and a new development will take its place. The new Voit Farm will house 1,100 new units consisting of a mix of low income and market rate apartments as well as townhomes. With a projected influx of several thousand people, one thing is for sure: the area is in for some major changes. This article is an educated guess as to what those changes will be.
According to OSBI, the Duncan Police Department requested assistance from OSBI on March 4, 2026, with an investigation of allegations of child sexual abuse.
Andrew Benton, age 27, was identified as a suspect by OSBI special agents.
Benton was the youth president for the Assembly of our Lord Jesus Christ and a youth pastor for Grace Chapel Pentecostal Church.
