Trump Rolls Back Fuel Economy Rules
President Trump announced on Wednesday that he is rolling back fuel economy standards set under the Biden administration, lowering the federal regulatory goal from 50.4 miles per gallon by 2031 to roughly 34 mpg.
The administration claims the move will save American families $109 billion over five years and is pitched as a cost-saving reset that could shave $900 to $1,200 off the sticker price of new gas-powered vehicles.
Trump called the Biden-era rules unrealistic and said Americans should have more affordable vehicle options that match how people actually drive.
Under Biden, the government required car companies to increase the fuel efficiency of passenger cars and light trucks partly in order to stimulate the production and sale of electric vehicles in the U.S., and move away from gas-fueled cars.

Charlie Kirk Tops Wikipedia’s 2025 List
Wikipedia released its 11th annual list of most-read articles, revealing conservative Christian activist Charlie Kirk’s page topped 2025 with nearly 45 million views, largely driven by his assassination at a university campus debate in September.
Approximately 15 million views came the day after his death, when the page was being viewed by around 170 people every second, with over 40% of traffic originating from outside the United States.
The annual “Deaths in 2025″ page came in second with 42.5 million views, which has never ranked lower than third since the Wikimedia Foundation began tracking most-read articles 11 years ago. People spent an estimated 2.4 billion hours reading English Wikipedia articles in 2025.
Serial killer Ed Gein took third place with 31.2 million views, driven by Netflix’s latest season of Monster, while President Trump ranked fourth with 25.1 million views, marking his eighth appearance on the list since 2015.
Other top 10 entries included Elon Musk, New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani, and Ozzy Osbourne, who died in July.

Veteran Raises $1.3 Million After Pension Loss
Ed Bambas, an 88-year-old Army veteran in Brighton, Michigan, has raised $1.4 million online after revealing he works fulltime at a Meijer grocery store because he lost his pension.
Influencer Samuel Weidenhofer met Bambas while filming random acts of kindness at the store. After hearing his story, he posted a video that quickly went viral. Watch the video here.

Bitcoin is Down 30%. Meanwhile, These Tokens You’ve Never Heard of Went Up 1,000%+
While your portfolio has bled these past few months, a handful of digital assets have quietly gone parabolic.
You may not have heard of them. Few know how to access them.
By the time most assets hit Coinbase, the gains are over.
Hedge funds and institutions access tokens in Native Markets. These are decentralized exchanges where coins trade for pennies before retail investors even know they exist.
They buy low. Then they list on Coinbase. You buy high. They exit. You hold the bag.
Solana traded at $0.95 in Native Markets. By the time it hit Coinbase, it was $44.45. That’s a 4,679% markup retail investors paid.
Most people think bear markets mean there are no opportunities. That’s what they want you to think.
In the past three weeks alone, while Bitcoin crashed, Native Markets produced:
- FOLKS: 300% gains
- TRADOOR: 303% gains
- YOOLDO: 220% gains
These aren’t lucky picks. This is a system.
Tan Gera, a former Wall Street CFA, built a system that identifies these opportunities every single week.
His system has achieved an 86% win rate over the past two years. Not because he’s predicting the future, but because he’s accessing the same markets institutions do before retail can pile in.
Over 3,500 investors are now using his system to access the Native Markets.
Do you want to keep paying the 4,000%+ markup? Or get in where the real money is made?
