In a discussion regarding the ongoing "war" with Iran, a former high-ranking U.S. military officer made a point which left me momentarily speechless. That point being: "The UAE and our other allies in the Middle East are better protected via U.S. air defense systems from Iran’s Shahed Drones than the state of Florida."

The reason Florida was brought up was because of Cuba. Much in the news lately as the Trump administration seeks to free the people of that communist nation from decades of totalitarian rule.

As those negotiations go on, the logical question regarding Cuba – which is less than 90 miles off the coast of Florida – becomes: "Has Iran – or any other terrorist organization or U.S. adversary – successfully placed any of its Shahed attack drones within that Communist Island nation?"

As was recently reported on this site in a piece headlined: "Pentagon jumps from $225M to $55B on drones as cheap attacks overwhelm US defenses," the United States and our Department of War might be on the wrong end of the "World War Drone" spectrum.

PENTAGON JUMPS FROM $225M TO $55B ON DRONES AS CHEAP ATTACKS OVERWHELM US DEFENSES

As the lead paragraph of the article rightfully – and shockingly – pointed out: "The Pentagon is seeking roughly $55 billion for drone and autonomous warfare programs in its fiscal year 2027 budget, as battlefield conflicts from the Middle East to Ukraine expose a growing problem: cheap drones are increasingly able to overwhelm costly U.S. defenses."

A "growing problem" indeed. One that is no doubt on the minds of the commanders of the over 20 military bases in Florida potentially in striking distance from Cuba. Most especially those in the Tampa area which is home to U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) and U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM).

Is the U.S. truly behind the curve in this exponentially evolving theater of battlefield operations? And, if so, by how much?

AI ARMS RACE: US AND CHINA WEAPONIZE DRONES, CODE AND BIOTECH FOR THE NEXT GREAT WAR

More importantly, where does the People’s Republic of China – arguably our No. 1 adversary – stand with its own military drone technology? A China that has already infiltrated operatives – and operations – throughout Central and South America and … Cuba. Countries which could house enemy drones well within striking distance of the United States.

It has been reported that both China and Russia are making massive advances with their autonomous warfighting capabilities. Of major concern is that both adversaries are developing larger "carrier" drones capable of launching smaller attack drones mid-flight.

Carrier drones which would greatly extend the range of such attack drones. Should such carrier drones be infiltrated into the Western Hemisphere, the direct line flight path math to the continental United States is not complicated. It is chilling.

US COULD BURN THROUGH KEY MISSILES IN 'A WEEK' IF WAR WITH CHINA ERUPTS, TOP SECURITY EXPERT WARNS

The good news is that if our military and the Pentagon are behind the drone-warfare curve, they won’t be for very long. Not only has the budget for this cutting-edge technology dramatically increased, the Trump administration seems to be adopting a "Manhattan Project" strategy to catch and then greatly surpass our adversaries.

As they do this, a logical conclusion to be made is that the evolving threat from China is the driving force behind much of the U.S. strategy. With China specifically in mind, critically important questions quickly emerge.

As the just completed talks between President Donald Trump and China’s President Xi Jinping highlighted, the subject of Taiwan and its potential defense, is a very contentious subject between our two nations. If a conflict breaks out in that area, do we currently have the heavy-lift drone capability to deal with China and its powerful Navy?

UKRAINE CRUSHES PUTIN’S BOMBERS, BUT CAN CHINA AND RUSSIA DO THE SAME TO THE US?

What deterrents are we developing to give China pause from initiating future actions harmful to U.S. interests? Our Navy has already demonstrated that its warships can shoot down Shahed-class drones, but it’s not cost-effective. But drones from Iran or a small terrorist organization are one thing. How will the United States deploy a cutting-edge deterrent to China’s rapidly advancing Navy? Is the Pentagon focusing on the development of its own fleet of UAS (unmanned aircraft system) Carrier drones that can deliver long-range ship-killing missiles capable of getting the attention of the leadership of China?

Next, as this drone warfare technology advances, we must develop drone fleets capable of protecting Air Force bombers – and their human crews -- which will be at increased risk from the drones being developed by China and Russia. But as we do this, we must not lose sight of any threats to the United States right off our coast or emanating from within the Western Hemisphere.

For that threat, the Pentagon needs to be asking itself what critical lessons can be learned from the ongoing "Drone War" between Ukraine and Russia? Both nations – like Iran – have built millions of relatively cheap, but increasingly more lethal, attack drones. Drones which are not only being acquired by terrorist organizations, but drones which could be launched from Cuba, Mexico or a Central American country into the United States. Or from ships offshore.

By jumping the budget from $225 million to $55 billion, Trump and the Pentagon have demonstrated that they are all over this challenge. But with China and Russia both developing – and potentially placing -- "carrier drones" capable of airlifting long-range missiles off our coast or within our hemisphere, time is clearly of the essence.

Effective drone countermeasures, along with our own fleet of modernized UAS capable of carrying large JASSM missiles, can’t be created fast enough. "Science fiction" has now become a war-fighting fact.

The United States military must become the preeminent drone-fighting force in the world. Our safety depends upon it.

There have been growing rumors in the U.K. that Prince William is preparing for a trip to the U.S. tied to both the FIFA World Cup and America’s 250th anniversary celebrations — but now the Prince of Wales may be planning a calculated charm offensive on the world stage.

Christopher Andersen, author of "Kate!," told Fox News Digital that William may be considering a family trip involving the royal children, with a Middleton family friend telling him they are "over the moon with excitement," especially with Prince George being "a passionate soccer fan."

"This would mark the first known visit to the U.S. by two future kings traveling together," Andersen said. "This would also mark the first time the Wales children have ever set foot on American soil."

KING CHARLES HEADS TO TRUMP WHITE HOUSE AS AMERICA MARKS 250 YEARS SINCE BREAKING FROM THE CROWN

If the 43-year-old were to travel across the pond this summer, it would come shortly after King Charles III and Queen Camilla won praise for their historic state visit to the U.S. In April, the couple embarked on a four-day trip to Washington, New York and Virginia at the request of the U.K. government, timed to help mark America’s 250th birthday.

"Prince William is president of England’s Football Association," Andersen pointed out. "As such, he is expected to cheer on England’s team in the World Cup. Charles and Camilla’s state visit was also an unqualified triumph. Along with Kate Middleton’s equally successful trip to Italy, palace officials were prompted to green-light one more high-profile visit, this time by the brightest stars in the royal firmament."

In response to Andersen’s comments, a Kensington Palace spokesperson told Fox News Digital, "There are currently no public plans for a trip to the U.S. Hoping for a great performance from England, though!"

WATCH: KATE MIDDLETON IS THE MONARCHY'S SECRET WEAPON: AUTHOR

While William isn’t currently expected to make an official public visit to the U.S. on behalf of the royal family, that doesn’t rule out a private trip. Members of the royal family often travel privately for personal events, vacations or family time outside their formal royal duties.

"Even seasoned royal watchers were taken by surprise when Kate Middleton embarked on her two-day visit to Reggio Emilia in northern Italy," Andersen said. "It was her first trip abroad since she shocked the world by announcing she had been diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer more than two years ago."

In December 2025, The Times U.K. reported that the king and the Prince of Wales were expected to make separate trips to America in 2026. At the time, a source told the outlet it was "highly likely" the king would make the trip in April. Later in the year, William was expected to travel to North America when the U.S. hosts the FIFA World Cup alongside Canada and Mexico.

In late March, Buckingham Palace announced the king and queen would visit the United States in April.

According to the outlet, William would attend as patron of the Football Association if plans were finalized. England’s match is scheduled to be played in New Jersey on June 27.

British royals expert Hilary Fordwich told Fox News Digital she wouldn’t be surprised if William and his family considered a quick summer getaway to America.

"Prince William loves football," Fordwich said. "He’s spoken about loving the atmosphere and camaraderie among football fans. Given the camaraderie surrounding World Cup matches, his role as heir to the throne, along with his 20 years serving as president and patron of the Football Association, makes it possible he’ll come to the U.S. to cheer England on. He’s also said he believes England can win the World Cup again, after last doing so in 1966."

"I don’t think we can rule out a potential trip to the U.S. this summer, particularly after King Charles’ highly praised visit and amid a broader sense that Princess Kate is gradually returning to a more ‘normal’ public rhythm following the disruptions of the past few years," royal commentator Amanda Matta told Fox News Digital.

"It would make sense for the Wales family to become more visible internationally again," Matta said. "There have already been rumors circulating that William and Princess Kate could make an appearance in the States connected to America’s 250th birthday commemorations. Given William’s well-known love of football, I could absolutely see a World Cup appearance being folded into a broader ‘soft diplomacy’ trip."

Still, Matta pointed out there’s no public indication from the palace that any plans are in the works.

"Symbolically, a Wales family appearance here would reinforce the monarchy’s continued investment in its relationship with America," said Matta. "For William and Catherine, it would also be a moment to showcase the next generation of the royal family on the international stage."

If the family moves forward with plans, Andersen said, they would face a unique travel arrangement.

"My sources tell me that the Princess of Wales is along for the ride, and for one inescapable reason," Andersen said. "Following royal protocol and to protect the line of succession, direct heirs to the throne are barred from traveling together, a rule that took effect when George turned 12 last year.

"The same was true for William, who began flying separately from Charles after turning 12. William could ask the king for special permission to fly together as a family, but that seems unlikely. Enter Princess Kate, a famously doting mother, who is not about to let her eldest son, who turns 13 in July, fly across the Atlantic without being accompanied by a parent."

A stateside appearance from Kate would be a significant PR win for the monarchy, given her popularity among American fans.

"We heard a lot about the ‘soft power’ King Charles wielded during this recent trip to the U.S.," said Andersen. "But frankly, he is a piker compared to Kate. Even more than William, Kate is shaping the image of Britain abroad. "She is really the monarchy’s biggest asset, its key to the future. … A visit would be history in the making."

Royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams isn’t entirely convinced. He told Fox News Digital that despite the persistent rumors, he doesn’t believe the chances are strong that the royal children would be included in a lengthy trip. After the king’s recent visit, William may also want to press pause.

"This is likely to be saved for another occasion, although given the closeness of the U.K. and the U.S. over the last 250 years, it would align with the king’s sentiments expressed during those speeches on his state visit," he said. "They could be followed by a gesture of affection on such a special occasion."

"Prince William is immensely popular on both sides of the Atlantic, according to polls," Fordwich said. "Seeing him as an ‘everyman’ football fan would no doubt further boost his popularity."

Athletics pitcher J.T. Ginn was on the brink of making history on Monday night, but the moment fell out of his grasp in the final inning of the game against the Los Angeles Angels.

Ginn took a no-hitter into the ninth inning, hoping to become the first pitcher to throw one by himself since Blake Snell did it for the San Francisco Giants on Aug. 2, 2024, and the first to complete one since three Chicago Cubs pitchers combined for one on Sept. 4, 2024.

The Angels were able to break up the no-no in the bottom of the ninth when Adam Frazier singled. Then, Zach Neto came to the plate and hit a walk-off home run, giving the Angels a 2-1 lead in dramatic fashion.

In almost an instant, Ginn’s shot was ruined.

"Obviously a tough game," Ginn said after the game. "Just keep your head up and keep moving forward. It’s just the nature of the game that we play. I attack the zone and I live with that."

Frazier lined a pitch over the shortstop facing an 0-2 count. Neto was up 2-0 in the count when he hit the game-winning home run.

"Just a crazy game to play," Ginn said. "I fell behind 2-0, threw a good sinker, and he was waiting on it and put a good swing on it. So, tip your cap to him."

Ginn threw a career-high 105 pitches and struck out 10 batters. He became the sixth major leaguer since 1974 to allow no hits or runs in the first eight innings of the game and take the loss. Rich Hill last made the mark for the Los Angeles Dodgers in August 2017.

"J.T. dominated all night. For him to walk off the mound with a loss there, it hurts, obviously," Athletics manager Mark Kotsay said. "He pitched probably the best game he’s pitched in his big league career, and to have an opportunity to get a no-hitter, and two hits later you walk off with a loss, it’s tough. I had full confidence in him going out there in that inning at 100 pitches and trying to get it done. It just didn’t work out."

The A’s scored their lone run in the top of the ninth when Lawrence Butler drove in Zack Gelof. The A’s were able to record seven hits off the Angels.

Los Angeles hasn’t been no-hit since Sept. 11, 1999.

New York Magazine columnist Ross Barkan has been accused of plagiarism, launching an internal investigation into his past work.

The accusation began on Thursday after Washington Post reporter Drew Harwell accused Barkan of lifting material from his May 9 piece on The Daily Wire co-founder Ben Shapiro for a similar piece on Shapiro's business. After Harwell highlighted the similarities between the two articles, New York Magazine updated its piece with an editor's note offering credit to the Washington Post, though Harwell explained he wasn't "entirely sure what happened."

After Harwell's comments, NPR correspondent Bobby Allyn found additional examples of what appeared to be Barkan lifting similar phrases and descriptions from The Intercept and Compact Magazine on other reports.

"The paragraphs in question are summarizing the historical background or context of the stories, with some instances containing the same 30 words in a row, or near identical passages with a word or phrase slightly tweaked," Allyn wrote.

In a comment to Fox News Digital, New York Magazine issued a statement that it would be "conducting a review of the writer's prior work" in light of this report.

Barkan defended his work in his own comment to Fox News Digital, saying that he "did not plagiarize anyone" and "[a]ll of this is ridiculous."

Barkan repeatedly pushed back against the report and criticized Allyn's reporting on his X account during the weekend.

TRUMP TELLS NEW YORK MAGAZINE HE'LL SUE ITS 'A-- OFF' IF REPORTER WRITES 'BAD STORY' ON HIS HEALTH

"Here's a lesson for reporters out there. When you are writing a story, don't email at 11:24 p.m. and threaten someone for comment about a story you publishing 'tonight.' It's deeply unserious. @BobbyAllyn's been doing this a long time, and it sure doesn't show," Barkan wrote on Saturday.

In another post, he wrote, "Between Crain's and New York Magazine in the last calendar year, I have published something like 150 columns. A story is currently being written about 3. One was updated with proper citation, and the other two had proper citations already."

"I get it - media reporters get bored. We all hunt for ideas. We all get obsessed with Twitter. But this is one of the dumber controversies imaginable," Barkan wrote.

NY MAG COVER ACCUSED OF CROPPING OUT BLACK ATTENDEES OF TRUMP INAUGURATION EVENT

Meanwhile, Harwell has shared NPR's report and stood by his accusation.

"@RossBarkan copied my lede almost word for word. @BobbyAllyn found other questionable passages, and @NYMag is reviewing his work. Now Ross says it's 'one of the dumber controversies imaginable' and 'you become a target after a while when you do this,'" Harwell wrote.

Compact Magazine editor Matthew Schmitz, who agreed that Barkan "heavily plagiarized" Compact writer Juan David Rojas' work, also called out Barkan's comments.

"So @RossBarkan heavily plagiarized a @rojasrjuand article in Compact. He claims that this is a-ok because he linked to Juan’s article. No. That isn’t how it works," Schmitz wrote.

It’s no secret that China is willing to influence and undermine U.S. interests and national security by any means possible. On May 11, Eileen Wang, the mayor of Arcadia, Calif., resigned after pleading guilty to acting as a foreign agent for China, marking the latest high-profile example of the extent of our foreign adversaries’ intelligence operations.

The Chinese Communist Party is targeting U.S. lawmakers and officials, from the state and local levels to our nation’s capital. But not every target of foreign subversion efforts is as easy to compromise as, for instance, failed presidential and California gubernatorial candidate and former representative for California’s 14th Congressional District – Democrat Eric Swalwell. Foreign intelligence assets are equally determined to gain access to principals' aides and staff, a reality that rarely makes national headlines.  

In 2022, a compromised staffer for a Northern Virginia congressman was fired after the employee made repeated attempts to schedule meetings with other congressional offices at the behest of the Chinese Embassy, in order to lobby for the CCP’s priorities.

The U.S. Capitol campus, despite all the visible public security measures, belies the truth that it is still relatively open access for the American people and foreigners alike. Lawmakers and staff, on a regular basis, also often have engagements with foreign diplomats, who each have their own agendas that go beyond small talk at receptions.

CHINESE SPY INFILTRATION: MAYOR’S BUST ADDS TO GROWING TIMELINE OF FOREIGN INFLUENCE CREEPING INTO US

Even foreign entities that may not appear threatening at face value are oftentimes soft power and intelligence conduits for adversarial state actors. Russia-aligned entities, posing as religious or non-political organizations, sought meetings with congressional offices last year, to disseminate Kremlin propaganda and sway U.S. policy.

In a similar manner, individuals with academic credentials with strong ties to the Iranian regime have tried to influence congressional offices to advocate for sanctions relief. These individuals, well known in Beltway foreign policy circles, strive to gain access to lawmakers and their staff and successfully exploit loopholes under the Foreign Agent Registration Act.

The point here is not that members and their staff are totally oblivious to the threat posed by foreign agents. In fact, on May 9, it was reported that a would-be CCP spy had offered $10,000 to a staffer on the Select Committee on China in return for insider information. The staffer promptly reported the incident, and the committee referred it to the FBI for further investigation. Still, this shows that foreign agents can be subtle as well as bold in their attempts to gain access to classified information or compromise a target.

BIPARTISAN SENATORS PUSH TOUGHER PENALTIES FOR FOREIGN-BACKED CRIMES ON US SOIL

What’s clearly needed is a far more serious focus on deterring the threat posed by foreign intelligence operations. For this reason, I, along with House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman Rick Crawford, R-Ark., have introduced the Stop Talking to Other People (STOP) Resolution.

This resolution would require the House of Representatives to establish a training program for both members of Congress and staff with access to classified information to undergo counterintelligence training and information protection best practices. Many would be surprised that such a program does not already exist for Congress.

In the interest of U.S. national security, we cannot afford to neglect giving our public servants the know-how and resources to combat foreign intelligence threats here in the workplace. After all, in recent years the FBI has given a ballpark estimate of 10,000 for the number of foreign agents in the DC area.

Because a savvy operator can easily develop the pretense to physically access congressional offices and lawmakers, it’s no secret that foreign intelligence agencies view Washington, D.C., as the ultimate soft target for espionage.

The South Carolina Supreme Court wiped away Alex Murdaugh’s double-murder conviction on May 13, ruling unanimously that the trial was irredeemably tainted by the conduct of Colleton County Clerk of Court Rebecca "Becky" Hill.

Last week, the South Carolina Supreme Court delivered an account of how Hill’s conduct during the 2023 double-murder trial crossed ethical and constitutional lines, ultimately unraveling the state’s conviction of Murdaugh.

"Both the State and Murdaugh's defense skillfully presented their cases to the jury as the trial court deftly presided over this complicated and high-profile matter," the court wrote. "However, their efforts were in vain because Colleton County Clerk of Court Rebecca Hill placed her fingers on the scales of justice, thereby denying Murdaugh his right to a fair trial by an impartial jury."

ALEX MURDAUGH: TIMELINE OF THE ONCE POWERFUL SOUTH CAROLINA LAWYER'S SPECTACULAR DOWNFALL

The opinion described Hill’s actions as a "breathtaking and disgraceful effort" to interfere with the jury process, conduct the justices called "unprecedented in South Carolina."

ALEX MURDAUGH'S DOUBLE MURDER CONVICTION UNANIMOUSLY OVERTURNED BY SOUTH CAROLINA SUPREME COURT

At the center of the case were repeated allegations that Hill improperly commented on Murdaugh’s testimony and credibility to jurors during the six-week murder trial.

Jurors testified Hill told them not to be "fooled" by Murdaugh’s defense and instructed them to "watch him closely," "look at his actions," and "look at his movements" while he testified.

One alternate juror recalled Hill warning jurors: "They’re going to say things that will try to confuse you. Don’t let them confuse you or convince you or throw you off."

ALEX MURDAUGH ATTORNEY ARGUES STATE SUPREME COURT SHOULD OVERTURN GUILTY VERDICT

The Supreme Court said the comments went beyond casual conversation between staff and jury members, writing that she "essentially implored the jurors to find him guilty."

"Hill became a character witness on behalf of the State, encouraging the jurors to question Murdaugh's credibility" the opinion said.

The opinion also painted a portrait of a public official consumed by the attention surrounding the nationally televised trial.

Hill co-authored a book about the proceedings, "Behind the Doors of Justice: The Murdaugh Murders," while also granting favors to media members and cultivating celebrity around the case, according to testimony cited by the court.

According to the book’s synopsis, Hill had known the Murdaugh family for decades and was aware of "the rumors of corruption and crime surrounding the Murdaugh family."

"These accusations came and went, nothing sticking long enough to bring clarity or a clear conviction. Becky had also known of good deeds done by the Murdaughs," the synopsis stated. "She was there when Randolph Murdaugh received the Order of the Palmetto, the highest honor bestowed on a civilian by the Governor of South Carolina."

MURDAUGH COURT CLERK BECKY HILL RELEASED ON BOND AFTER ARREST ON PERJURY, MISCONDUCT CHARGES

A fellow court official testified Hill said she hoped the book would earn enough money to buy a lake house and believed a guilty verdict would improve sales.

The justices concluded Hill "was attracted by the siren call of celebrity" and "allowed her desire for the public attention of the moment to overcome her duty to her oath of office."

Although Hill denied many of the allegations during a 2024 evidentiary hearing, the Supreme Court wrote that "Hill’s denial of making any inappropriate comments lacked credibility."

The opinion also referenced Hill’s later guilty plea to perjury related to her denial that she allowed members of the media to view sealed exhibits.

The unraveling began publicly in October 2023 when Murdaugh’s attorneys filed a motion for a new trial accusing Hill of jury tampering.

By January 2024, jurors were testifying under oath about Hill’s comments and behavior.

"As noted at the outset," the justices wrote, "Hill’s shocking jury interference" forced the court to reverse the conviction and order a new trial.

Prior to Wednesday's ruling, Hill had previously pleaded guilty to four charges -- obstruction of justice and perjury for showing a reporter photographs that were sealed court exhibits and then lying about it, plus two counts of misconduct in office for taking bonuses and promoting a book she wrote on the trial through her public office.

"There is no excuse for the mistakes I made. I’m ashamed of them and will carry that shame the rest of my life," Hill said in a statement read to the court.

Despite the legal win Wednesday, Murdaugh will not be walking free. He remains behind bars serving lengthy sentences for a string of financial crimes that cemented his fall from power.

For his financial crimes, Murdaugh was sentenced in state court to 27 years in prison after pleading guilty to 22 counts including money laundering and breach of trust. In federal court, he received a 40-year sentence for conspiracy to commit wire fraud and bank fraud, which he is serving concurrently with his state time.

Though his murder convictions and subsequent life sentences were overturned by the South Carolina Supreme Court on Wednesday, he remains in prison to serve the financial sentences.
