By Greg Wehner  and Jacqui Heinrich | Fox News The Trump administration is offering buyouts for nearly all federal employees, including those who work remotely, as part of President Donald Trump’s efforts to get employees back into the office, but they only have until Feb. 6 to opt-in.

"After four years of incompetence and failure, President Donald Trump is committed to making our government efficient and productive again," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement on Tuesday. "American taxpayers pay for the salaries of federal government employees and therefore deserve employees wo...

The DeepSeek AI chatbot burst onto the scene: are fears about it overblown?

By Eric Revell | Fox Business Marc Andreessen, co-founder and general partner of venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, wrote in a post on X that "Deepseek R1 is AI's Sputnik moment," in reference to the Soviet Union's early lead over the U.S. in the Cold War era Space Race. Anthropic co-founder Jack Clark wrote in his "Import AI" newsletter, "R1 is significant because it broadly matches OpenAI's o1 model on a range of reasoning tasks and challenges the notion that Western AI companies hold a significant lead over Chinese ones." While some tech sector figures and investors in the AI space see DeepSeek's advancements as signaling the arrival of a new phase of AI competition, others are less convinced that it poses a broad challenge to the U.S. tech industry.

Google Maps will soon be changing ‘Gulf of Mexico’ to ‘Gulf of America’

By Leah Barkoukis | Townhall After an executive order signed last week by President Trump, the Interior Department announced the Gulf of Mexico would “officially” be renamed as the Gulf of America. Additionally, North America’s highest mountain will once again be called Mount McKinley. Both name changes “honor the legacy of American greatness,” the statement said.   “The U.S. Board on Geographic Names, under the purview of the Department of the Interior, is working expeditiously to update the official federal nomenclature in the Geographic Names Information System to reflect these changes, effective immediately for federal use,” the statement added.  Once that takes place, the Gulf of America will be reflected on Google Maps, the company said.

Trump administration orders pause on all federal grants and loans

By Scripps News Staff | Denver 7 The White House is taking drastic measures to control trillions of federal dollars by ordering a freeze on all federal grants and loans so President Donald Trump's administration can review government spending.
