Schumer unveils Democrats’ Obamacare fix plan, likely dead in the water

Senate Democrats now have their plan to extend expiring Obamacare subsidies, but it’s unlikely that Senate Republicans will give it the green light. 

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., unveiled Democrats’ plan to prevent the subsidies from expiring by the end of this year on Thursday. Senate Democrats’ strategy, which mirrors the option on the table put forth by House Democrats, would extend the subsidies for three years with no tweaks or reforms. 

‘I’m announcing that Senate Democrats will introduce legislation for a clean, three-year extension of the current [Obamacare] tax credits,’ Schumer said on the Senate floor. ‘This is the bill, a clean, three-year extension of [Obamacare] tax credits that Democrats will bring to the floor of the Senate for a vote next Thursday. And every single Democrat will support it.’

Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., guaranteed Senate Democrats a proposal of their choosing, but the hope in the upper chamber is that a bipartisan compromise would emerge in time for the vote next week, which is expected to come by Dec. 11. 

However, no such plan has materialized given a litany of issues both sides have with moving forward. Senate Republicans want reforms, like income caps and the inclusion of language that would prevent the enhanced subsidies from using taxpayer dollars to fund abortions, while Democrats, who are open to some reforms, largely want a clean extension of the subsidies as illustrated by Schumer’s plan. 

Whether Senate Republicans put forth their own plan remains in the air, too. 

Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee Chair Bill Cassidy, R-La., and Senate Finance Committee Chair Mike Crapo, R-Idaho, have been working on a Republican proposal, which likely largely centers on funneling the subsidy money into Healthcare Savings Accounts (HSAs) rather than directly to insurance companies. 

The duo pitched ideas and proposals to Republicans during their weekly closed-door meeting on Tuesday, but no unified strategy emerged. 

Schumer argued that Democrats’ proposal would be the last shot the Republicans and Congress would have to prevent the subsidies from lapsing and stopping healthcare premiums from skyrocketing. 

‘If Republicans block our bill, there’s no going back,’ he said. ‘We won’t get another chance to halt these premium spikes before they kick in at the start of the New Year. Those insurance premiums in January will land like a hammer blow on the American people.’

Hegseth ‘acted within authority’ by using Signal for Houthi strikes, top Armed Services Republican says

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth ‘acted within his authority’ by sharing sensitive details about Houthi strikes over Signal, Armed Services Chairman Roger Wicker said after viewing a report from the Pentagon Inspector General (IG). 

‘It is clear from the reports that the Secretary acted within his authority to communicate the information in question to other cabinet level officials,’ the Mississippi Republican said in a statement. 

‘It is also clear to me that our senior leaders need more tools available to them to communicate classified information in real time and a variety of environments. I think we have some work to do in providing those tools to our national security leaders.’

U.S. officials often use Signal, an encrypted private messaging app, to communicate, even for sensitive information when they or the recipients of their messages are not near a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF).

Sources familiar with the report told Fox News that it had also determined Hegseth ‘created risks to operational security’ by sharing details of the March Houthi strikes with Cabinet officials over Signal. His actions ‘could have resulted in failed US mission objectives and potential harm to US pilots,’ one source familiar with the report said it determined. 

Pentagon chief spokesperson Sean Parnell said of the report: ‘This Inspector General review is a TOTAL exoneration of Secretary Hegseth and proves what we knew all along – no classified information was shared. This matter is resolved and the case is closed.’

A classified version of the report has been handed over to the Senate Armed Services Committee and is available for members of the committee to view. An unclassified, redacted version will be made public on Thursday. 

Trump administration officials used Signal to discuss sensitive military strikes against the Houthis in Yemen in March. Then-national security advisor Mike Waltz had created the chat, which included many of Trump’s top Cabinet members, and inadvertently added Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of the Atlantic.

The IG launched a probe in April following requests from top lawmakers on Capitol Hill. It was intended to examine whether Secretary Pete Hegseth improperly discussed operational plans for a U.S. offensive against the Houthis in Yemen and will also review ‘compliance with classification and records retention requirements,’ according to a memo from Inspector General Steven Stebbins.

Hegseth’s Signal messages revealed F-18, Navy fighter aircraft, MQ-9s, drones and Tomahawks cruise missiles would be used in the strike on the Houthis.

‘1215et: F-18s LAUNCH (1st strike package),’ Hegseth said in one message notifying the chat of high-level administration officials that the attack was about to kick off.

‘1345: ‘Trigger Based’ F-18 1st Strike Window Starts (Target Terrorist is @ his Known Location so SHOULD BE ON TIME – also, Strike Drones Launch (MQ-9s),’ he added, according to the report.

‘1410: More F-18s LAUNCH (2nd strike package)’

‘1415: Strike Drones on Target (THIS IS WHEN THE FIRST BOMBS WILL DEFINITELY DROP, pending earlier ‘Trigger Based’ targets)’

‘1536 F-18 2nd Strike Starts – also, first sea-based Tomahawks launched.’

‘MORE TO FOLLOW (per timeline)’

‘We are currently clean on OPSEC’ — that is, operational security.

Waltz later wrote that the mission had been successful. ‘The first target — their top missile guy — was positively ID’d walking into his girlfriend’s building. It’s now collapsed.’

Trump administration officials have insisted that nothing classified was shared over the chat. The report should offer clarity on that claim.

Thursday will be a contentious day for the Pentagon — Adm. Frank M. Bradley, commander of Special Operations Command, will also be on Capitol Hill to offer his account of the Sept. 2 ‘double tap’ strike on alleged narco-traffickers. 

After one strike on a boat carrying 11 people and allegedly carting drugs toward the U.S. left two survivors clinging to the wreckage, Bradley ordered another to take out the remaining smugglers.

Lawmakers and legal analysts have claimed that killing shipwrecked survivors is a war crime. Bradley is briefing leaders on the House and Senate Armed Services Committees. 

Original reporting by the Washington Post claimed that direction came from the top: Hegseth had directed the commander to ‘kill them all.’ But Hegseth claimed he issued no such directive and did not witness the second strike. He said Bradley made the decision on his own, but he stands by it. U.S. officials who spoke with the New York Times said Hegseth did not order the second strike.

Melania Trump says 7 more Ukrainian children reunited with families as part of initiative with Russia

First lady Melania Trump announced Thursday that an additional seven Ukrainian children have returned to their families in the war-torn country as part of a Russia-Ukraine youth reunification initiative.

‘My dedication to guaranteeing the safe return of children to their families in this region is unwavering,’ Melania Trump said in a statement shared by the White House, which noted that six boys and one girl were involved.

‘I commend the leadership and persistent diplomacy of Russia and Ukraine in the pursuit of the reunification of children and families. Their bridge-building has created a tangible collaborative environment — an anchor for optimism. This cooperation will continue to drive the process forward through the next phase,’ she added.

‘In close partnership, my representative and I have provided humanitarian support from the United States to enhance the reunification initiative’s outcome. My hope is that, ultimately, our collective efforts will lead to broader regional stability,’ Melania Trump also said.

The first lady previously wrote a ‘peace letter’ to Russian President Vladimir Putin telling him ‘it is time’ to protect children and future generations around the globe, Fox News Digital reported in August.

President Donald Trump then hand-delivered the message to the Russian leader before their summit in Alaska that month.

In October, Melania Trump said eight Ukrainian children displaced during the ongoing war with Russia had been reunited with their families.

‘Each child has lived in turmoil because of the war in Ukraine. Three were separated from their parents and displaced to the Russian Federation because of frontline fighting. The other five were separated from family members across borders because of the conflict, including one young girl who has now been reunited from Ukraine to Russia,’ Melania Trump said at the time.

‘My ongoing mission is twofold: to prioritize and optimize a transparent, free flow of health-related information surrounding all children who have [fallen] victim to this war, and to facilitate the reunification of children with their families until each individual returns home,’ Melania Trump said. 

Fox News Digital’s Brooke Singman and Rachel Wolf contributed to this report.

Former world leader thanks Trump for pardon: ‘You changed my life’

Former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández thanked President Donald Trump for pardoning him, writing on social media that he was ‘wrongfully convicted.’

‘My profound gratitude goes to President @realDonaldTrump for having the courage to defend justice at a moment when a weaponized system refused to acknowledge the truth. You reviewed the facts, recognized the injustice, and acted with conviction. You changed my life, sir, and I will never forget it,’ Hernández wrote on X in his first remarks since he was released by the Bureau of Prisons.

‘I was set up by the Biden Harris administration and the deep state through a rigged trial. There was no real evidence, only the accusations of criminals who sought revenge. Yet the truth of my innocence prevailed,’ he said in part.

Hernández was sentenced to 45 years in prison in June 2024 for conspiring to distribute more than 400 tons of cocaine and for related firearms offenses.

Former Attorney General Merrick Garland said the ex-two-term president used his power to support one of the largest and most violent drug trafficking conspiracies in the world.

‘Hernández received millions of dollars of drug money from some of the largest and most violent drug-trafficking organizations in Honduras, Mexico, and elsewhere, and used those bribes to fuel his rise in Honduran politics,’ the Department of Justice said.

Hernández’s brother, Juan Antonio Hernández Alvarado, was also convicted in October 2019 and sentenced to life in prison.

Trump said he pardoned the former Honduran leader because ‘a lot of people in Honduras’ asked him to, adding he feels ‘very good about it.’

‘Well, he was the president, and they had some drugs being sold in their country, and because he was the president, they went after him – that was a Biden horrible witch hunt,’ Trump told reporters Tuesday.

Several GOP lawmakers criticized the pardon amid the White House’s targeting of alleged drug boats off the coast of Venezuela.

Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-La., criticized the decision to pardon Hernández, saying it made little sense to free him while the U.S. continues to pursue Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro on federal narco-terrorism charges.

Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., also criticized the move in an interview on CNN, saying he couldn’t understand how the U.S. could ‘threaten a potential land war against a thug and a narco-terrorist who plays like he’s the president of Venezuela, and then go easy on someone whose investigation that led to an indictment started in the Trump administration.’

Who is Brian Cole Jr, the DC pipe bomb suspect?

The suspect who allegedly planted pipe bombs blocks from the U.S. Capitol on January 5, 2021, has been identified as Brian Cole Jr. of Woodbridge, Va., according to two sources briefed on the arrest.

The sources say Cole, 30, is in FBI custody as of Thursday following roughly five years of investigation.

The FBI arrested Cole in northern Virginia. 

Authorities have not released further details about the man, but one federal law enforcement source told Fox that the FBI is carrying out ‘court-enforced activity’ at Cole’s residence.

Authorities discovered the two pipe bombs near the Republican and Democratic National Committees’ headquarters around the same time that thousands of protesters a few blocks away began to storm the Capitol over the 2020 election results.

Neither bomb detonated, but authorities say both were viable and dangerous.

Video footage released by the FBI showed the suspect placing the pipe bombs near the two headquarters more than 16 hours before law enforcement found them.

The suspect was seen wearing a gray hoodie, Nike Air Max Speed Turf sneakers, a mask, glasses and gloves, but Cole’s identity had long been unknown.

Sranan Gold Continues to Extend the Mineralized Zone at the Randy’s Pit Target, Tapanahony Project, Suriname

Sranan Gold Corp. (CSE: SRAN,OTC:SRANF) (‘Sranan Gold’ or the ‘Company’) reports additional assay results from diamond drilling at the Randy’s Pit target on its Tapanahony Project, Suriname.

Highlights include 22.4m at 2.44 g/t Au in hole 25RADD-006 and 19m at 1.68 g/t Au in hole 25RADD-009. These new results (Table 1) continue to extend the mineralized structure along strike and with depth. The results build on the previously released (NR 04 November 2025) intercept of 64.0 metres grading 3.0 g/t Au (including 33.5 g/t Au over 5 m) in drill hole 25RADD-004. Sranan has now completed over 3,000 metres of drilling at Randy’s pit target and continues to demonstrate the continuity, and potential of the 4.5-km-long Randy–Poeketi gold Trend.

*Intercepts above 0.3 g/t Au with internal dilution up to 5m tolerated.

Widths shown are sampled intervals within the drill hole and may not represent true widths or thickness.

These new drill results continue to intersect multiple mineralized intervals within a wider shear corridor with zones of higher-grade mineralization. There is consistent mineralization within the upper and mid-levels of this west dipping shear system that support continuity between earlier holes and the holes reported in this release. A strong, broad interval is recognized in a central mineralized corridor that is trending along strike from the initial high-grade intercept in 25RADD-004 (see NR dated 04 November 2025).

The higher-grade intercepts reported in this release indicate that there is vertical and lateral continuity of the gold mineralization. The drilling completed to date supports the Company’s developing structural model of high-grade shoots within the north-north-west trending Poeketi shear corridor. The 19-metre interval in drill hole 25RADD-009 (see Figure1) is especially important as it represents an additional wide zone of continuous mineralization that is north of Randy’s pit.

Dr. Dennis LaPoint, EVP Exploration and Business Development states that ‘We are very pleased with the continued expansion of the mineralized trend at Randy’s pit along strike and at depth. The high grades are positive for future development as we continue to expand the mineralization at the Randy’s pit further to the north.’

The mineralized shear zone is hosted in basalt/mafic volcanic rock (see Figure 2) with strong sericite-silica alteration. Oriented core measurements confirm NNW striking shear zone, with slight crenulations and local brecciation. The presence of both pyrite and pyrrhotite is strongly associated with the mineralized shear corridor.

Samples were prepared and assayed by Filab in Paramaribo, Suriname. All samples >2 g/t were re-assayed with 50 gm re-assay and gravimetric assay. Standard QA/QC procedures were followed and showed a satisfactory level of reproducibility. The Company notes that the drill intercepts may not represent true underlying mineralization. Core logging and photography and sampling are completed under strict industry standard QA/QC protocols (Oreas certified reference materials, assayed coarse blanks, duplicates of core).

Nevada Sunrise Metals

Investor Insight

Nevada Sunrise Metals offers investors exposure to gold exploration and critical metals in one of Nevada’s most active and highly prospective gold belts, supported by advanced AI-driven target generation and a proven technical team guiding multiple discovery-stage projects.

Overview

Nevada Sunrise Metals (TSXV:NEV,OTCP:NVSGF) is a Nevada-focused mineral exploration company with a portfolio of gold, copper and lithium projects. Nevada was ranked the second most attractive exploration district in the world in 2024, providing a strong foundation for the Company’s growth strategy.

At the center of its portfolio is the Griffon Gold Mine project, a past-producing gold asset located within the prolific Battle Mountain–Eureka Trend. Griffon hosts Carlin-type mineralization, produced 62,661 ounces of oxide gold from 1998 to 1999, and benefits from extensive historical drilling, favorable host stratigraphy and new target zones identified by VRIFY’s DORA A.I. predictive modeling. Ongoing geophysics and geochemical programs in 2025 will refine drill targets ahead of a drilling program planned for 2026.

Nevada Sunrise is also advancing the Coronado Copper Project, where it holds the right to earn a 100 percent interest. Coronado is positioned for a planned geophysical program supported by good access and favorable terrain. In addition, the Company owns three lithium exploration projects – Gemini West, Jackson Wash and Badlands – all located in the Lida Valley in Esmeralda County.

To drive discovery across this portfolio, Nevada Sunrise integrates historical data with advanced geophysics, modern geochemical methods, and AI-driven exploration tools. This technology-enhanced approach, combined with experienced leadership and a strong technical team, is central to the Company’s strategy for building shareholder value.

Key Projects

Griffon Gold Mine Project

Discovery Ridge Pit, Griffon Gold Mine Project, White Pine County, Nevada

Located approximately 50 km southwest of Ely, Nevada, the Griffon Gold Mine project consists of 89 unpatented mineral claims totaling ~1,780 acres. The project is positioned within a 60 km segment of the Battle Mountain–Eureka Gold Belt, one of Nevada’s most productive precious metals trends.

Project Highlights:

  • Past Production: Griffon was previously mined by Alta Gold (1998–1999) and produced 62,661 oz of oxide gold via heap leaching before its premature closure impacted by low gold prices (US$278/oz in 1999).
  • Geological Setting: Stratigraphy includes Pilot Shale, Chainman Shale and Joana Limestone – formations typical of Carlin-type gold systems in the region. Historical drilling and multi-element geochemical soil sampling show multiple gold-bearing horizons and Carlin-type pathfinder elements (antimony, arsenic, mercury, thallium).
  • AI-supported Target Generation: In March 2025, VRIFY was engaged to apply predictive modeling to the project. Results have identified new target zones, including those southwest of Hammer Ridge and the unmined Anvil Zone.
  • Path to Drilling: Biological surveys are planned for late winter to spring 2026, after which successful drill permitting is expected. The Company anticipates drilling could commence in late Q2 or early Q3 2026, pending receipt of approvals.

Coronado Copper Project

The Coronado copper project is a VMS-style copper exploration property located in the Tobin–Sonoma Range of Pershing County, Nevada, approximately 48 km southeast of Winnemucca and adjacent to the historic Big Mike open-pit copper mine, which produced high-grade copper in the early 1970s. The project comprises 133 unpatented claims covering about 2,660 acres, and Nevada Sunrise holds the right to earn a 100 percent interest. Exploration to date includes airborne VTEM surveying, ground gravity surveying, soil gas hydrocarbon soil sampling, and historical drilling data, and the Company is now advancing new geophysical modeling to refine drill targets in this underexplored district.

Gemini West Lithium Project

The Gemini West lithium project represents the remaining western portion of Nevada Sunrise’s former Gemini lithium project land package in the Lida Valley, following the September 2025 sale of 223 core Gemini claims to Dome Rock Resources for US$800,000, with Nevada Sunrise retaining a 2.0 percent NSR royalty on future production and 26 unpatented claims immediately to the west of the Gemini lithium deposit. and. Positioned near the historic town of Gold Point in Esmeralda County, Gemini West continues to provide the Company exposure to lithium exploration upside in a highly prospective basin, complementing its fully-owned Jackson Wash and Badlands lithium projects.

Jackson Wash Lithium Project

The Jackson Wash lithium project is one of Nevada Sunrise’s 100-percent-owned lithium assets located in the Lida Valley of Esmeralda County, Nevada. The project, covering approximately 420 acres, has been advanced through earlier technical work, and is positioned within a highly prospective basin that also hosts the Company’s Gemini West and Badlands projects. Jackson Wash forms a core part of Nevada Sunrise’s long-term critical metals strategy.

Badlands Lithium Project

The Badlands lithium project, staked by Nevada Sunrise Metals in 2022, covers approximately 240 acres of unpatented claims in the Lida Valley, Esmeralda County, Nevada, situated about halfway between the company’s Gemini West and Jackson Wash lithium projects. Surface sampling in 2022 returned anomalous lithium values between 70 parts per million (ppm) and 165.8 ppm from outcrop, within flat-lying beds of volcanic ash, silt and gravel resembling playa-style sedimentary lithium systems.

Angkor Resources Confirms Mussel Basin Target on Block VIII Oil & Gas License, Cambodia

(TheNewswire)

GRANDE PRAIRIE, ALBERTA TheNewswire – (Dec. 4, 2025): Angkor Resources Corp. (TSXV: ANK,OTC:ANKOF) (‘ANGKOR’ OR ‘THE COMPANY’) announces Mussel Basin as a fourth target for exploratory drilling based on data processing of the seismic program.

After identifying three significant closed anticline structures in South Bokor, Central Bokor, and North Bokor on the west half of Block VIII, EnerCam’s team has received preliminary processed data on the northeast target of Mussel Basin.   The seismic data supports our expectation that Mussel Basin is a rift fault bounded basin, probably of Cenozoic age (within the last 66 million years).   As such, the basin is significantly different structurally than the South, Central and North Bokor basins, and so are the potential prospect types.

Keith Edwards, Geophysicist for EnerCam, comments on the Mussel Basin, ‘The advantage of the Mussel  Basin is two-fold:  First, the drilling targets will be shallower.   Second, the reservoir porosity may be higher owed to less compaction.  We are reviewing the data for stratigraphic traps, for example, reservoirs that pinches out against a sealing rock or porous channel sand encased in impermeable shale.’

The Company anticipates a full seismic interpretation in December with drill targets prioritized. In the meantime, reprocessing of specific areas of data for removal of ‘noise’ for better resolution continues.   Cleaner data helps verify what the seismic data tells the team regarding the unconformities they see and more clearly define targets for drilling.

The company undertook a 350-line kilometre 2D seismic program over Block VIII, completing the program at the end of September.   Processing and interpretation of the seismic data has been ongoing since then.   The initial data identified that clear, large four-way closures were evident on South Bokor and Central Bokor and all three sub-basins on the west side of Block VIII had anticline structures.

ABOUT Angkor Resources CORPORATION:

Angkor Resources Corp. is a public company, listed on the TSX-Venture Exchange, and is a leading resource optimizer in Cambodia working towards mineral and energy solutions across Canada and Cambodia.

Its Cambodian energy subsidiary, EnerCam Resources, was granted an onshore oil and gas license of 7300 square kilometres in the southwest quadrant of Cambodia called Block VIII.   The company then removed all parks and protected areas and added 220 square kilometres, making the license area just over 4095 square kilometres.  EnerCam is actively advancing oil and gas exploration activities onshore to meet its mission to prove Cambodia as an oil and gas producing Nation.

Since 2022, Angkor’s Canadian subsidiary, EnerCam Exploration Ltd., has been involved in oil and gas production in Saskatchewan, Canada with measures of gas capture to reduce emissions.  ANGKOR’s carbon capture and gas conservation project is part of its long-term commitment to Environmental and Social projects and cleaner energy solutions across jurisdictions.

The company’s mineral subsidiary, Angkor Gold Corp. in Cambodia holds two mineral exploration licenses in Cambodia with multiple prospects in copper and gold.
