President Donald Trump is set to make a significant announcement regarding the Department of Defense on Tuesday, focusing on the future location of Space Command’s headquarters. This command has been operating out of Peterson Space Force Base in Colorado Springs, Colorado. However, Trump has long advocated for relocating it to Huntsville, Alabama.

Lisa Cook’s integrity is under intense scrutiny following serious allegations of mortgage fraud. Federal housing regulator Bill Pulte has presented evidence suggesting that Cook misrepresented her primary residence in Ann Arbor, Michigan, which she has been renting out to tenants.

House and Senate lawmakers are back in Washington after their annual August recess, facing crucial challenges ahead. With the deadline for government funding looming, they have just 14 days to find common ground before the September 30 cutoff. The absence of an agreement on fiscal year 2026 spending priorities raises concerns about a potential partial government shutdown.

For years, the Gateway Pundit has focused on Michigan politics, offering sharp criticism of the administration led by Governor Gretchen Whitmer and other Democratic leaders like Attorney General Dana Nessel and Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson.
