The IGFA currently recognizes Cal Johnson’s 67-pound, 8-ounce muskie as the world record. September 1957 had been, Art Lawton recalled, a “miracle” month of muskie fishing. The muskies in New York’s St. Lawrence River had been on a feeding ramp age, and Lawton along with his wife, Ruth, had been there to intercept them. The couple had taken 30 muskies weighing from 18 to 49 pounds in one week of fishing. And…
United States Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene has said that voters declared they wanted an end to foreign wars when they voted for Donald Trump. She added that to continue to fund Ukraine is a “betrayal to the majority of Americans.” Greene made the comments recently after a group of U.S. senators introduced a bill to allocate $54.6 billion in aid to Ukraine over the 2026 and 2027 fiscal years. President Donald Trump has repeatedly opposed more US aid to Kiev, arguing that European nations should cover those costs. “Funding, fueling, and ultimately fighting Russia in Ukraine would be a complete…

In a statement accompanying the proposal, department officials said the move is designed “to ensure that VA provides only needed medical services to our nation’s heroes and…
