Steelers showcase depth but clean up penalties in win over Packers

NJ penalties shadow Trump-backed Freedom Fuel outlets

New Jersey regulators have levied about 196 violations totaling $429,900 against stations linked to Shamikh Kazmi and Blue Owl that later joined the Freedom Fuel discount network, largely for underground storage tank/registration and air-permit issues, including delivery bans that briefly blocked fuel and a $50,000 penalty for one Atlantic County station’s unregistered/unfinished tank. Some penalties predate Freedom Fuel’s existence, and a second Atlantic County station faced a similar ban; as of now one major penalty remains unpaid. The state AG is also reviewing compliance with a law prohibiting selling gas below cost. The White House had praised Freedom Fuel for lowering pump prices, while saying it wasn’t aware of the regulators’ dealings—the same network Trump promoted in posts and press releases.

International travel warning: cannabis import can cost you a decade in Thai prison

DHS Chief Pushes States to Vet Voter Rolls, Threatens Penalties for Noncompliance

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin told state election officials they must run voter rolls through a DHS database to identify noncitizens, warning of penalties including prison time if they don’t comply. DHS says about 250,000 noncitizens may be on rolls in California, New Jersey, Nevada, and Pennsylvania. The tool, originally for immigration checks, has been blocked by a federal judge for voter use and is criticized as error-prone, potentially flagging naturalized citizens and risking eligible voters’ removal. Experts say the effort could undermine trust in elections; Mullin pledged ongoing record scrubbing and an updated election-security plan to be released within 30 days.
