Pete Hegseth faces scrutiny at his confirmation hearing

Hegseth would oversee more than 2 million troops who could […]

Supporters of a […]

LONDON (AP) — U.K. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak faces rebellion from senior lawmakers in his Conservative Party over his stalled plan to send asylum-seekers on a one-way trip to Rwanda, a controversial and expensive policy that the British leader has made central to his attempt to win an election this year.
