Cuba’s failing power grid suffered a total collapse on the afternoon of Sept. 18, leaving the country of 10 million without power.
The grid experienced the collapse at 1:57 p.m. ET, according to the U.S. Embassy in Havana.
Cuba’s National Electrical Union (UNE) reported immediately after the failure that the cause was under investigation, with an unknown time until power restoration.
In a later update, authorities said the collapse was triggered by the failure of high-voltage transmission lines in central Cuba. According to independent Spanish-language news site cibercuba.com, which maintains a daily blackout dashboard, UNE also blamed unstable weather conditions as an aggravating factor.

Trump’s Greenland deal follows US firm’s purchase of rare-earth metals mine
By Geoff Earle
Published Sep. 19, 2026 Updated Sep. 19, 2026, 11:44 a.m. ET

President Trump’s new Greenland security deal comes just 17 days after a US-based company quietly closed a deal to purchase a Greenland mining company that would produce more than a third of the world’s rare earth magnet supply outside of China.
On Sept. 1, Greenland Mines, a NASDAQ listed US-aligned firm headquartered in North Carolina, closed a deal for the Sarfartoq Rare Earths Project in southwest Greenland.
The company announced that it planned to produce NdPr oxide – a compound of neodymium and praseodymium used in the manufacturing of magnets for EVs and wind turbines, as well as defense capabilities.
President Trump announced a new security deal Friday between the US, Greenland, and Denmark. The announcement comes just 17 days after a new rare earth mineral deal involving a US-based company.

It said it planned to produce about one-third of the amount refined globally outside of China, as the US and other world powers position for access to vital rare earth minerals.
The company says the project has an estimated value of $2.05 billion.
The preliminary acquisition of the Sarfartoq Rare Earths Project was first announced in May when it was valued at $35 million, and points to new potential economic ties between the US and Greenland.

Paxton’s office claims that the Houston-based birth tourism center focused its marketing on Chinese nationals, coaching them on how to evade American immigration law through opportunist visa applications to allow them to give birth to American citizens in Texas. The center, which spanned four properties across the Houston metro-area, has now ceased all operations.
“I will do everything in my power to stop foreign nationals from unlawfully exploiting our system through the same of ‘birth tourism,’” Paxton said in a press release. “This operation helped Chinese foreign nationals come to Texas to evade our laws. Now, we have shut it down.”

Morris to Newsmax: GOP Will Hold Senate, Gain Seats
By Solange Reyner | Saturday, 19 September 2026 03:04 PM EDT
Political strategist Dick Morris predicted Saturday that Republicans will keep control of the Senate in November and likely add one or two seats, even as Democrats target several GOP-held seats, including one in Texas.
Asked on Newsmax's "Saturday Report" whether the money flowing into Texas would make a difference in the midterms, Morris ran through the Senate map and said he expects Republicans to hold nearly every seat they are defending.
"I think we'll win Iowa, Ohio, Texas, Maine, and Alaska," Morris said.

Pass the Lindsey Graham Act
By Washington Examiner
Published August 2, 2026 5:00am ET
The late Sen. Lindsey Graham was a fierce opponent of Vladimir Putin’s Russia, the Islamic Republic of Iran, and other authoritarian regimes. A new law named in Graham’s honor would strengthen sanctions against Moscow and Tehran and could help bring an end to a long and devastating war.
Congress should pass it without delay.

Trump signs Russia sanctions bill named after Lindsey Graham
By David Zimmermann
Published September 19, 2026 9:09am ET
President Donald Trump signed a bill into law on Friday that imposes a new round of sanctions against Russia amid its war with Ukraine.
The new law, formally known as the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026, targets Russia’s energy sector by authorizing the president to impose up to 100% tariffs on countries purchasing Russian oil and natural gas. It sanctions Russian President Vladimir Putin and other Russian officials and entities as well, and also extends sanctions on Iran’s energy and weapons sectors.
The bill’s purpose is to apply economic pressure on Moscow by targeting resources that are needed to continue the war with Kyiv. The legislation was named after the late Sen. Lindsey Graham, who drafted the bill with help from Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) in the Senate.
An updated version was introduced by Sen. Darline Graham Nordone (R-SC), the younger sister of Graham who was appointed to his seat after he died of a heart condition in July. Graham had returned from a trip to Ukraine, where he met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, roughly 36 hours before he died unexpectedly.
Zelensky penned an X post after Trump signed the bill into law, recalling his last interaction with Graham while thanking the president for supporting it.

President Donald Trump will meet Venezuela’s interim president, Delcy Rodriguez, in New York on Tuesday, a senior U.S. official said Friday.
The meeting will mark the first time the two have stood in the same room since American forces pulled then-Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro out of Caracas in January and brought him to the United States to face federal drug trafficking and related charges.
The meeting will take place at a reception the U.S. president is hosting for leaders at the U.N. General Assembly.
Mike Waltz, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, laid out the details on a briefing call with reporters.
