As AM radio gradually fades into irrelevance, a bipartisan bill has been introduced by lawmakers requiring carmakers to keep including AM radio in vehicles.The question is why.Backers of the AM for Every Vehicle Act, including Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, say AM is crucial for emergency alerts, especially in rural areas."Each day, millions of Americans turn to AM radio to stay up to date on life in their community, engage on the issues they care about or to be simply entertained during rush hour," Cruz said in a statement."AM radio is a critical bulwark for democracy, providing a platform for alternative viewpoints and the ability for elected officials to share our efforts with our constituents," he said, tipping his hand about the broader agenda possibly at work here.AM radio has long taken a back seat to FM and, increasingly, satellite radio and streaming services.Ford told the Washington Post that less than 5% of listening by its drivers was to AM stations.Ford, Volkswagen, BMW, Tesla, V...Ravens 2023 undrafted free agent tracker: SMU offensive lineman Jaylon Thomas among additions

The Mustangs ranked seventh nationally in passing offense (316.7 yards per game) and 15th in total offense (472.8) last season.His addition marks the fifth rookie offensive lineman the Ravens have added over the last few weeks after Baltimore drafted Sala Aumavae-Laulu and Andrew Vorhees and signed Brandon Kipper and Tashawn Manning as undrafted free agents.

But in the case of the war in Yemen, the war really is over if we want. Everybody else directly or indirectly involved — Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, the Houthis, China, Oman, Qatar, Jordan, etc. — appears to want to put the war behind them. A ceasefire has held for more than a year, and peace talks are advancing with real momentum, including prisoner exchanges and other positive expressions of diplomacy. Yet the U.S. appears very much not to want the war to end; our proxies have been thumped on the battlefield and are in a poor negotiating position as a result. Reading between the lines, the U.S. seems...Police: Louisville man planned bank shootings, placed phone in pocket to livestream
