DHS Directs ICE To Deport Illegal Aliens Who Vote In American Elections Authored by Bryan Hyde via American Greatness, The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) General Counsel James Percival has directed Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to impose strict penalties , including deportation, on illegal aliens who vote in American elections. According to a DHS press release, the Immigration and Nationality Act directs the removal of aliens who illegally vote or make a false claim to US citizenship. 🇺🇸 DHS told ICE to deport any undocumented immigrant who votes in a U.S. election. The directive, signed Monday, ties directly to Trump's executive order on election integrity. Illegal voting and false citizenship claims are now being treated as deportable offenses under the… pic.twitter.com/HGSGkmewQR — Mario Nawfal (@MarioNawfal) June 9, 2026 DHS states that these provisions allow for the removal of illegal aliens if they illegally participate in our elections. No criminal conviction is required for their removal. Percival said , “ The importance of free, fair, and honest elections is without question. Echoing the words of President Trump, ‘the right of American citizens to have their votes properly counted and tabulated, without illegal dilution, is vital to determining the rightful winner of an election.” Percival added, “Illegal voting by aliens dilutes the votes of American citizens and undermines our democracy. It must have consequences.” DHS says the directive will help further implement policies similar to those from President Donald Trump’s March 2025 executive order , “Preserving and Protecting the Integrity of American Elections.” Trump’s order directs actions across the federal government, including the verification of voter eligibility, grant administration, information-sharing, enforcement of federal integrity laws, improving voting systems, and criminal prosecution of unlawful voting by aliens. The latest directive follows an August 2025 announcement ...

Ratchapon Supprasert/iStock via Getty Images South Bow ( SOBO ) up 4.2% in Wednesday's trading as Raymond James initiates coverage with an Outperform rating and C$60 price target, believing the Prairie Connector project is poised to receive a positive final investment decision, which would be "a game changer" for the company. South Bow ( SOBO ) was lacking any material, obvious organic growth until the Prairie Connector concept came to fruition, but Raymond James analyst Michael Barth estimates that Prairie Connector by itself can drive a mid-single-digit DCF/share compound annual growth rate through ~2030. Plenty of unknowns remain around the project and downstream connectivity, but the open season suggests plenty of commercial support exists, and Barth believes Prairie Connector has a very high probability of proceeding, while estimating Phase 1 is worth ~C$5/share to South Bow ( SOBO ) today, while the NPV of Phase 2 could be worth another ~C$4/share. Barth also sees South Bow ( SOBO ) as uniquely positioned to pursue M&A as one of the few strategic consolidators of oil assets in Western Canada, noting that management made it abundantly clear at the last Investor Day that M&A would be a key growth pillar, with plenty of potential targets that would make strategic sense and likely deliver solid DCF/share accretion.

Love Employee/iStock via Getty Images Investors Should Know: The GLP-1 and broader metabolic disease drug space is advancing rapidly, with next-generation oral formulations, triple-acting compounds, and combination therapies moving through clinical pipelines. This article highlights tools investors can use as they are looking for the next stage of innovation in biotech. Background GLP-1 receptor agonists have reshaped the treatment landscape for obesity and type 2 diabetes. The class, originally developed for blood sugar control, gained widespread attention after clinical trials showed significant weight loss benefits. That shift drove massive commercial interest and a wave of pipeline investment across the pharmaceutical industry. The next phase of competition centers on differentiation. Companies are pursuing oral small-molecule GLP-1 drugs, multi-target agonists that combine GLP-1 with glucagon or amylin signaling, and RNA-based approaches. The goal is to improve efficacy, tolerability, and patient convenience beyond what current injectable therapies offer. Meanwhile, investors are looking for the next wave of innovation. Using various data streams, Seeking Alpha has identified tickers and ETFs closely associated with innovation in the sector. Key Takeaways Next-generation GLP-1 development is moving beyond injectables, with oral formulations and multi-target agonists advancing in clinical and preclinical stages across multiple companies. U.S. pricing and access conditions — including a $50 out-of-pocket level discussed in the Medicare Part D context — remain a key variable for the commercial trajectory of obesity drugs. Early-stage companies, including Innovent and MetaVia, are presenting new clinical and preclinical data, reflecting the breadth of pipeline activity in the metabolic disease space. A wide variety of companies are associated with innovation in biotech and healthcare. News Roundup Recent conference presentations and pipeline disclosures illustrate ...

Petrovich9/iStock via Getty Images President Donald Trump is expected to meet with senior defense industry executives at the White House this week as his administration grapples with concerns about declining U.S. missile inventories and the pace of weapons production, NBC News reported Wednesday, citing people familiar with the plans. Executives from several major defense contractors are expected to attend the meeting, along with Deputy Defense Secretary Stephen Feinberg. The discussions are likely to focus on accelerating production of missiles and other munitions needed by the Pentagon amid rising global military demands. The meeting comes as U.S. military operations in the Middle East continue to consume large quantities of precision-guided weapons and air-defense interceptors. At the same time, the Pentagon remains committed to supporting allies and maintaining readiness in Europe and the Indo-Pacific. For investors, the discussions could signal increased pressure on defense contractors to expand manufacturing capacity and may eventually lead to new procurement contracts. Missile makers and suppliers across the defense industrial base could benefit if the Pentagon moves forward with larger multiyear purchasing programs aimed at rebuilding depleted inventories. Growing worries about supplies Concerns about munitions stockpiles have grown steadily since the United States began supplying weapons to Ukraine following Russia's invasion in 2022. More recently, military operations involving Iran have intensified demands on inventories of cruise missiles, air-defense interceptors and other precision weapons. While administration officials have publicly maintained that U.S. stockpiles remain sufficient to meet national security needs, lawmakers, military analysts and former defense officials have raised questions about whether current inventories are adequate for a prolonged conflict involving a major adversary. Industry executives and defense officials have also noted t...

chaofann While the Federal Open Market Committee remains on hold amid stubbornly elevated inflation, Oppenheimer analysts Mitchel Penn and Andrew Denkler analyzed the impact of falling and rising rates on business development company, or BDC, earnings. For the group, a 100 basis-point rate increase would boost earnings by 7.8% on average, while a 200-bp increase would improve earnings by 16.3% on average, they said. Their analysis also indicates that ROE would increase by 0.7% with a 100-bp hike and by 1.6% for a 200-bp increase. For a 100-bp decline, BDCs, on average, would see earnings drop 1.7% (0.7% ROE). For the 200-bp cut, they estimate earnings would fall 13.9% (1.3% ROE). Their analysis yielded a handful of stocks that they expect would benefit in either a rising or falling interest rate environment. "We believe the following BDCs are attractive in a rising or falling interest rate scenario as the market has already priced in 100 bps of easing," Penn and Denkler said. Those are Trinity Capital ( TRIN ), Ares Capital ( ARCC ), Fidus Investment ( FDUS ), Blue Owl Capital Corp. ( OBDC ), and Sixth Street Specialty Lending ( TSLX ). In late Wednesday trading, TRIN rose 0.6%, ARCC increased 0.5%, FDUS climbed 1.3%, OBDC slipped 0.3%, and TSLX added 0.6%.
