  • The Disturbing New Way AI Is Being Used to Target Kids - 11-12-2026

    The Disturbing New Way AI Is Being Used to Target Kids - 11-12-2026
    2026/11/12
    A 13-year-old in northern Michigan got a message on TikTok from someone who said, “I think I know you.” The stranger asked for a couple of face photos to figure out the connection. Not long after, those same selfies came back as AI-generated explicit images, along with a threat: send gift cards, or everyone you know sees these.UpNorthLive’s Marc Schollett walks through the case and how the teen got help through OK2SAY, Michigan’s anonymous student tip line. OK2SAY has logged more than 10,000 tips in the first 10 months of this year, and sextortion cases have climbed into its top five. Marc explains why investigators think the scammer is probably overseas and unlikely to be caught. He also shares the advice he’d give every parent: keep the walls up with strangers, and take them down with the people your kids trust.Then digital forensics expert Hany Farid, who helped build PhotoDNA, the tool platforms use to block known child abuse images, explains how nudify apps let anyone turn one photo into explicit material in seconds. He covers where US law stands: images built from a real, identifiable child are illegal, while fully synthetic ones remain a gray zone. He explains why he thinks the Supreme Court is “still living in the Photoshop era,” why he’d rather see tech companies sued than regulated, and why Apple and Google deserve scrutiny for keeping these apps in their stores.The National Press is a daily show hosted by Lyndsay Keith, featuring local reporters on the stories shaping the country.

  • 18 Veterans Die by Suicide Every Day. One General Is Fighting to Save Lives. - 11-11-2026

    18 Veterans Die by Suicide Every Day. One General Is Fighting to Save Lives. - 11-11-2026
    2026/11/11

    Retired Army Maj. Gen. Bob Dees runs a farm in Virginia for the veterans most at risk of suicide. On this Veterans Day episode of The National Press, he talks with Lyndsay Keith about how it works.


    Dees served 31 years in the Army and commanded the 2nd Infantry Division in Korea. He now leads the National Center for Healthy Veterans at Valor Farm in Altavista, a nine-month residential program. Veterans live in tiny homes, work with horses and in a carpentry shop, and take courses in resilience and trauma recovery. Dees says 82% of the veterans they accept arrive in the “red zone,” and 60% leave in the green. He tells the story of a Vietnam widow whose husband “came home with an expiration date.” He also remembers a 13-year-old girl who told him at the end of her family’s stay, “I’ve got my daddy back.”

  • How an Alabama City Was Tricked Into Sending Scammers $14.7 Million - 11-10-2026

    How an Alabama City Was Tricked Into Sending Scammers $14.7 Million - 11-10-2026
    2026/11/10
    Someone emailed the city of Mobile, Alabama, in May pretending to work for the contractor building its new downtown arena. By October, city staff had sent $14.7 million to a bank account the scammers controlled.Andrea Ramey of NBC 15 in Mobile walks through how they pulled it off. The fake email address had a few extra characters. The impersonator asked for copies of old invoices, saying the company was about to be audited. When city staff called to check, they dialed the number the fraudsters had given them. The money went out October 2. The real contractor flagged a missing payment five days later, and the news took nine more days to reach the mayor. Ramey also covers a separate fraud attempt in August that the city stopped in time, the employee who was fired and the two on leave, and why residents at council meetings want more people held accountable.Then cybersecurity expert Jon DiMaggio explains business email compromise, the scam behind Mobile’s loss. He says FBI-reported losses passed $3 billion last year. He explains why mid-size cities make good targets and what would have stopped this one: call the bank yourself, and never trust a phone number that comes from the person asking for money.The National Press is a daily show hosted by Lyndsay Keith, featuring local reporters on the stories shaping the country.

  • Washington Is Building a 500-Mile Floating Border Wall. What Could Go Wrong? - 11-9-2026

    Washington Is Building a 500-Mile Floating Border Wall. What Could Go Wrong? - 11-9-2026
    2026/11/09

    The federal government is chaining one-ton buoys across the Rio Grande. In Utah, one washed-out bridge has turned a 30-minute trip to the doctor into two hours.

    Jordan Elder of News 4 San Antonio and FOX San Antonio rode the river with Border Patrol near Eagle Pass as crews worked sunup to sundown, six days a week, installing a waterborne barrier. It is planned for more than 500 miles of the Rio Grande, about 40% of the Texas-Mexico border. In 2023 the Justice Department sued Texas over Governor Greg Abbott’s buoys. The federal version uses linked cylinders with no gaps, sitting about three-quarters above the water and built to spin if anyone climbs on them. This summer’s flood swept hundreds of them downstream, which shut Eagle Pass’s international bridges and piled buoys against Laredo’s land port. Jordan found about $3 billion in federal contracts tied to the barrier, but buoy spending is mixed in with border wall work, so the real price is hard to pin down. Laredo is worried about its drinking water, scientists are watching silt build up into islands, and a drone no-fly zone makes it hard to check whether contractors are keeping up with maintenance.


    Samantha Hoffman of KUTV 2News traveled to Bluff, Utah, a town of a couple hundred people that flooded twice in about a week. Water stood a foot deep in the post office and fire station. The Highway 163 bridge to Monument Valley is gone, and the detour through Kayenta, Arizona adds an hour or more. A tilting power line threatened to cut electricity across 30 miles and take out cell service during evacuations. Just outside town, families on Navajo Nation land can’t get back into their homes because of E. coli, and federal aid may never reach towns this small.

  • What Voters Were Angry About - 11-6-2026

    What Voters Were Angry About - 11-6-2026
    2026/11/06
    Twenty-seven votes. That’s how close one Georgia statehouse race came on Tuesday, a fitting snapshot of a midterm night that moved more power in state capitals than any election since 2008. Lyndsay Keith opens with the statehouse map. Democrats flipped 12 legislative chambers, took full control in Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin, and broke Republican supermajorities in states like Indiana, Kansas, Ohio and Missouri, so new governors there have vetoes the legislature can’t easily override.In Texas, Andrew Lamparski of CBS Austin explains how a state Donald Trump won by 14 points in 2024 sent James Talarico to the Senate by 12. Texas also elected Gina Hinojosa, its first Democratic governor since Ann Richards, and handed Democrats the state House for the first time since 2002. Andrew walks through Webb County, a border county that went for Trump two years ago and gave Talarico more than 70% this week. He also explains how Hinojosa’s ads on data centers pushed Gov. Greg Abbott to soften his position.Then Remington Hernandez in Lansing and Gregg Lagerquist of WGME CBS 13 in Portland break down two Senate races that ended with wide margins. Abdul El-Sayed won Michigan’s open seat on a pitch of Medicare for All and money out of politics, with college students still lined up to vote in Ann Arbor after the polls closed. In Maine, Troy Jackson entered the race 101 days before Election Day, after Graham Platner dropped out, and beat five-term Sen. Susan Collins 53% to 46%. Gregg explains why Mainers 45 and older moved toward Collins while younger voters turned hard against Republicans. He also explains why heating oil near $6.50 a gallon mattered so much in Maine.The National Press is a daily show hosted by Lyndsay Keith, bringing in local reporters from across the country to talk about the stories shaping America.

  • Your Generic Drugs Are Likely Made Overseas. What Standards Are They Held To? - 11-5-2026

    Your Generic Drugs Are Likely Made Overseas. What Standards Are They Held To? - 11-5-2026
    2026/11/05
    Ninety percent of the prescriptions Americans fill are generics, and almost half of those come from India. Most patients have no way to know which factory made their pills or what inspectors found there.FDA inspectors in India have described freshly painted “show facilities” prepared for their visits, while production happened somewhere else. One inspection turned up an unregistered testing lab with cats, birds and lizards inside, and staff tried to lock the inspectors out. Ohio State professor John Gray found drugs made in India were 54% more likely to be tied to severe adverse events, including hospitalization and death. When one Indian plant that made most of the country’s cisplatin and carboplatin shut down, children with cancer couldn’t get chemotherapy.Defenders of the current system point out that generics save Americans hundreds of billions of dollars a year and that many foreign factories are state of the art. Even the reporters say plenty of drugs from India are fine. Critics, including former FDA inspectors and Valisure, a testing lab in Connecticut, say buyers choose on price alone, inspections can’t keep up, and filing fees of about $360,000 per drug make it hard for U.S. companies to compete.Lyndsay Keith talks with Lisa Fletcher, National Investigative Correspondent, and Andrea Nejman, Investigative Producer, of Sinclair’s Spotlight on America. Their documentary is Tainted Trust: Inside the Global Medicine Pipeline.“We’re investigating manufacturers for destroying documents about their drug production, and they’re asking us to destroy our evidence.” – Lisa FletcherGet The National Press in your inbox every morning: https://thenationalpress.com/joinFollow Lyndsay Keith:X: https://x.com/LyndsayMKeithInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/lyndsaymkeithSubstack: https://substack.com/@lyndsaykeithFollow The National Press:X: https://x.com/NationalPressHQInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/NationalPressHQTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@NationalPressHQYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@NationalPressHQSubstack: https://thenationalpress.com/joinFollow Lisa Fletcher:X: https://x.com/lisa_fletchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/lisa_fletchFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/abc7-lisa-fletcher-196050544121891/Follow Andrea Nejman:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrea-nejman-08492112/Follow WJLA: X: https://x.com/7NewsDCInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/7newsdcFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/7NewsDCYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@7newsdcTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@7newsdc Hosted on Acast.

  • Inside the Blue Tsunami: A Closer Look at the Governor’s Races - 11-4-2026

    Inside the Blue Tsunami: A Closer Look at the Governor’s Races - 11-4-2026
    2026/11/04

    Election night brought upsets in governors races across the country, and The National Press talks to the people closest to them. In Texas, Democrat Gina Hinojosa unseated Gov. Greg Abbott to become the state’s first Democratic governor since 1990. Texas Republican Party chair D’rinda Randall explains why she thinks her party took the state for granted and fell short on messaging. Texas Democratic Party chair Kendall Scudder argues that Texas was never a red state, only a state where people didn’t vote.


    In Florida, Republican Byron Donalds held the governor’s mansion but beat David Jolly by a far smaller margin than Ron DeSantis won by in 2022, despite outspending Jolly more than six to one. Pollster Michael Cohen, author of Modern Political Campaigns, explains what drove such a close race. Florida Democratic Party chair Nikki Fried makes the case that her state is purple again.


    In Ohio, Axios senior political reporter Alex Isenstadt explains why Vivek Ramaswamy’s campaign put $4 million behind an ad featuring Amy Acton’s estranged mother. Acton went on to become the state’s first female governor. And with a record 45% of Americans now calling themselves independents, Open Primaries founder John Opdycke explains why Massachusetts and Alaska voted on opposite changes to how their primaries work.

  • The 145 Ballot Measures You’re Voting On Today - 11-3-2026

    The 145 Ballot Measures You’re Voting On Today - 11-3-2026
    2026/11/03
    It’s Election Day, and the races for Congress aren’t the only thing on the ballot. Voters in 39 states are deciding 145 statewide ballot measures, and many of them settle fights that couldn’t be resolved anywhere else. Lyndsay Keith walks through the biggest ones. Missouri could become the first state to repeal an abortion amendment its voters already passed. Florida is voting on a homestead exemption that local governments say would cost them more than $45 billion. Alaska is having a rematch over ranked choice voting, Massachusetts could become the first state to repeal legal marijuana, and D.C. voters are deciding whether to ban foie gras. Plus, the headlines: Nebraska votes on online sports betting, a ballot printing error in Fresno County, and Maryland’s ban on betting on elections as states take on Kalshi and Polymarket.Then Lyndsay talks with Liz Gonzalez of KMPH Fox 26 in Fresno about Proposition 40, California’s proposed one-time 5% tax on billionaires’ net worth. Supporters say it could raise about $100 billion to cover federal cuts to Medi-Cal. Opponents say it is already driving the ultra-wealthy and their companies out of the state. Liz explains why Gov. Gavin Newsom is fighting a tax his own state party endorsed, what the latest polling shows, and what the vote could mean for other states thinking about taxing the wealthy.The National Press is a daily show hosted by Lyndsay Keith that brings the country’s best local reporting to a national audience.
