  1. Congress is close to a bipartisan deal that could reverse the Trump administration’s renaming of several southern Army bases back to Confederate leaders. The House-passed defense bill would block Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s move and restore the 2020 changes that honored a more diverse set of figures. The Senate’s bill would cover three Virginia bases, but Georgia senators want their two bases included. With the Senate vote pending, final negotiations may soon decide if the renamings stick or are rolled back. Will Congress override Hegseth’s move?

    Soon nine U.S. Army bases will no longer have to bear the disgraced names of Confederate rebel generals.
    Instead those Army bases will be given names more representative of American values & the look of today's U.S. Armed Forces.
