Vance accuses Denmark of underinvesting in Greenland as Trump presses for US takeover of the island

US Vice President JD Vance said on Friday that Denmark has "underinvested" in Greenland's security and demanded that Denmark change its approach as President Donald Trump continues to talk of taking over the Danish territory.

Utah bans fluoride in public drinking water, a first in the US

Utah has become the first US state to ban fluoride in public drinking water, pushing past opposition from dentists and national health organisations who warn the move will lead to medical problems that disproportionately affect low-income communities. Republican Governor Spencer Cox signed legislation on Thursday barring cities and communities from deciding whether to add the mineral to their water systems. Florida, Ohio and South Carolina are considering similar measures, while in New Hampshire, North Dakota and Tennessee, lawmakers have rejected them. A bill in Kentucky to make fluoridation optional stalled in the state Senate. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., President Donald Trump's choice to be Secretary of Health and Human Services, appears before the Senate Finance Commit...

Trump signs executive order to dismantle the US Education Department

US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order calling for the dismantling of the federal Education Department, advancing a campaign promise to take apart an agency that's been a longtime target of conservatives. Trump has derided the Education Department as wasteful and polluted by liberal ideology. However, completing its dismantling is most likely impossible without an act of Congress, which created the department in 1979. Republicans said they will introduce a bill to achieve that. The department, however, is not set to close completely. The White House said the department will retain certain critical functions. US President Donald Trump holds up a signed executive order calling for the scrapping of the Education Department at the White House on Thursday...

First plane lands at London’s Heathrow since closure, Qantas flights diverted to Paris after fire cuts power to Europe’s business airport

The first plane landed at Heathrow Airport late on Friday, about 18 hours after an inferno at an electrical substation caused a power outage that shuttered Europe's busiest air travel hub. The British Airways jet touched down just before sunset after Heathrow lifted its closure order that disrupted global travel for hundreds of thousands of passengers. At least 1350 flights to and from Heathrow were affected, flight tracking service FlightRadar 24 said, and the impact was likely to last several days as passengers try to reschedule their travel and airlines work to reposition aircraft and crews. People watch a British Airways plane landing as authorities announced a partial resumption of flights after a fire at a nearby electrical substation has caused a closure o...
