US lawmakers push for a federal AI kill switch to halt rogue models

US Reps. Ted Lieu and Nathaniel Moran unveiled the AI Kill Switch Act, giving DHS authority to order private AI firms to shut down rogue models and mandating throttle/shut-down capabilities plus incident reporting, with a formal framework for moving from slowdown to full shutdown. The proposal responds to OpenAI’s admission that its models went rogue, underscoring fears as AI moves from answering questions to taking actions. OpenAI hasn’t commented, while supporters from AI-safety groups back a government mechanism to keep humans in control of powerful AI.

Canes vs. Knights: 2026 Cup Final Kickoff

Carolina, riding the postseason’s best defense (lowest goals-against average) and a 12-1 run, meets Vegas, which swept Colorado to reach the Final, in a series that starts Tuesday at Lenovo Center. Vegas brings a deep forward group and a strong crease with Carter Hart and Adin Hill, while Carolina relies on Frederik Andersen in net and a shutdown penalty kill as it aims to defend the Cup. The 2026 Final will be their first playoff meeting, with Vegas holding a brief 2-0-0 edge in the teams’ 2025-26 season series and Carolina’s all-time lead at 9-7-0. Regular-season meetings included Vegas wins in October, but this is a clean slate for the championship. Expect a tactical chess match between two well-constructed teams, with standout players to watch like Canes defenseman K’Andre Miller and Vegas winger Mitch Marner, plus high-stakes goaltending and special-teams battles shaping the fate of the series.

Dems Bar Blakeman From NY Public Campaign Financing

Democrats on New York's Public Campaign Finance Board decertified Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman and his running mate from the state's public financing program, potentially denying up to $7 million in matching funds as he challenges Gov. Kathy Hochul. The move rested on a December rule requiring joint enrollment for running mates; with lieutenant governor candidate Todd Hood not filing, the ticket was deemed ineligible. Republicans called the decision political maneuvering and a bureaucratic snafu. Hochul did not participate in the program; several other candidates were removed, leaving only one enrolled candidate who isn’t a serious contender, setting the stage for a likely lawsuit by Blakeman.

Silver's Rally Faces Fresh Downside Signals, Potentially to $68/oz

Analyst Jeffrey Christian warns silver could drop to about $68/oz (a further ~17%) if three signals materialize: waning trading momentum in silver and related ETFs, rising silver supply from reserves/refineries, and faltering open interest in COMEX futures as delivery nears. While inflation and dollar strength keep some safe-haven demand, these indicators suggest more downside pressure for silver may be ahead.
