Heathrow Airport Shuttered; Musk and China War Plans

Heathrow Airport Shuttered; Musk and China War Plans

1) London's Heathrow airport will be closed all day Friday due to a major power outage caused by a nearby fire at an electrical substation. The airport advises passengers not to travel to the airport, and disruptions are expected to continue over the coming days, with hundreds of flights already canceled.


2) President Trump denied a report that Elon Musk would be briefed on the American military's contingency planning for a potential war with China. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth confirmed that Musk would visit the Pentagon, but characterized the meeting as an informal discussion about innovation, efficiencies, and smarter production.


3) President Trump signed an executive order to largely dismantle the Education Department, directing Education Secretary Linda McMahon to "take all necessary steps to facilitate the closure" of the department. The move is part of Trump's vision to overhaul the US government, with the goal of transferring the department's functions to states and reducing its workforce of over 4,000 employees by nearly half.
