China reportedly threatened Panama with “serious consequences” after a majority of the country’s lawmakers backed the creation of a parliamentary exchange group with Taiwan.
The newly-created Panamanian parliamentary exchange group with Taiwan has opened a diplomatic rift between Beijing and Panamanian lawmakers less than a decade after Panama abandoned diplomatic relations with Taiwan in favor of China, the South China Morning Post (SCMP) reported Monday, citing Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun. Panamanian President José Raúl Mulino has publicly distanced his government from the lawmakers’ initiative as Beijing pressures the country to reaffirm its commitment to the one-China principle, the outlet reported.
“We congratulate Panama for taking steps to assert its sovereignty and align with President Trump’s vision for the Panama Canal,” a senior U.S. official told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “The President has made clear that Chinese control of the Panama Canal is unacceptable, violates the U.S.-Panama Treaty, and jeopardizes our national and economic security.”
In the event of global war, such as World War III, the Panama Canal would be an irreplaceable asset for the U.S. Navy if it needed to rapidly deploy surface vessels for combat in the Pacific Ocean.
The dispute puts Beijing’s pressure campaign squarely in a region Washington considers strategically vital. The Trump administration’s 2026 defense strategy specifically warned that growing adversary influence around the Panama Canal could threaten U.S. access to key terrain in the Western Hemisphere and undermine American security interests, according to the Department of War.

If President Trump Can Take on Washington, He Can Take on Entitlements

At the Republican Party’s first-ever midterm convention last week, President Trump promised every adult American a $5,000 “dividend” if Republicans retain Congress in November. The pledge drew immediate backlash from Republicans concerned about inflation, debt, and the prospect of adding roughly $1.2 trillion, before interest, to a federal balance sheet already groaning under its own weight.

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz urged the European Union to strengthen its trade defenses against China, saying European companies are facing growing pressure from Chinese competition.
Speaking at a business and trade conference on Tuesday, Merz said Europe needs effective instruments to reduce its dependence on Beijing and protect businesses from “unfair competition.”
“Today, the People’s Republic of China deliberately combines its market-economy dynamism with state intervention, overcapacity, aggressive pricing, an undervalued currency, and heavily subsidized exports,” he said. “As a result, our companies are being put under enormous pressure both in the European Union internal market and in third-country markets.”

The nationalist first ministers of Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland met on Sept. 14 to call for referendums on leaving the UK, saying that “Westminster’s time is coming to an end.”
For the first time since modern devolution began in 1999, the three countries all have first ministers who favor leaving the four-nation union and breaking away from the Westminster government currently led by British Prime Minister Andy Burnham.
The leaders from Wales’s Plaid Cymru, the Scottish Nationalist Party (SNP), and Northern Ireland’s Sinn Fein signed a memorandum of understanding on Sept. 14 that said no Westminster government had the right to “block democracy.”
The meeting followed U.S. President Donald Trump’s comments over the weekend about the possibility of a unified Ireland.

Consumers Open Wallets Again as Retail Sales Top Market Estimates
‘Don’t underestimate the consumer,’ says Money Management International’s Ted Rossman.

Consumers opened their wallets again in August after an unexpected decline in the previous month, new government data show.
U.S. retail sales surged 1.2 percent last month, from a 0.5 percent drop in July, according to a report released by the U.S. Census Bureau on Wednesday. This represented the highest increase since March.
A rebound was widely expected—economists had projected a 0.8 percent gain—as July’s decline was fueled mainly by seasonal factors, including Amazon moving Prime Day a month earlier and FIFA World Cup festivities concluding.
On a 12-month basis, retail sales edged up 6 percent.
Sales at gasoline stations led the way, with receipts surging more than 3 percent. But even excluding commerce for automobiles and gasoline stations, transactions were broad-based and rose more than 1 percent.

Ex-Secret Service Agent to Newsmax: Butler Shooting 'a Big Mystery'
By Jim Mishler | Tuesday, 15 September 2026 05:49 PM EDT
Former Secret Service Special Agent Tim Miller told Newsmax that the attempt on President Donald Trump's life in Butler, Pennsylvania, remains unexplained more than two years later, and that insider security breaches at the agency are a threat to the agents working protection details.
Miller told "The Record With Greta Van Susteren" on Tuesday that basic questions about the shooting have never been answered.
"Two years later, after one of the most iconic events in our lifetime, we still don't have the details as to how and why this happened," Miller said.
"We get dribs and drabs every now and then," he said.
"So, yeah, this is a big mystery still as we get more information," Miller said.
He tied the question to the removal of the agency's communications director and two staff members, who he said were walked out of the building less than two weeks ago over allegedly compromising insider information.
"As a Marine, that's horrifying to me to think that folks on the inside are creating a problem for these agents," Miller said.

Six individuals in three states were charged last week for various election-related crimes, including illegal voting and identity fraud.
Charges against three people were filed in California.
James Brass, 47, of California; Courtney Price, 49, of Florida; and Jateisha Herron, 33, of California, allegedly paid people to sign certain ballot petitions using stolen identities of registered voters, the Department of Justice (DOJ) said in a Sept. 14 statement.
The petitions aimed to collect voters’ signatures so that certain proposed measures could qualify for a place on the California ballot.
California’s ballot initiative process allows citizens to enact laws or constitutional amendments without legislative support.

On Monday, Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) endorsed Rep. Mike Collins (GA-10) in his U.S. Senate run against incumbent Democrat Sen. Jon Ossoff.
As opposed to the mess in Texas, where primaried Sen. John Cornyn (R) is doing everything he can to tear down the candidacy of the Republican Senate nominee, TX Attorney General Ken Paxton, Kemp has made the conscious choice to unite behind and support the party's nominee.

James Comer wants to see immigration fraud evidence on Ilhan Omar so Congress can decide on her expulsion
By Mia Cathell
Published September 15, 2026 1:38pm ET
Rep. James Comer (R-KY), chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, is calling for the release of the Trump administration’s alleged evidence against Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), showing whether she violated U.S. immigration law by allegedly marrying her own brother, so that Congress can decide if she should be expelled from office.
“I think they should make it public,” Comer said during an interview Monday night on Just the News, No Noise. “Absolutely, make it public. The evidence that I’ve seen would show that they would be privy to a lot more evidence than I would have.”
