Quick test: without looking at a statement, how much does your credit card debt cost you per month in interest alone? Not the payment — just the interest. Most people guess low. Way low. At today’s average rates north of 20% APR, a $5,000 balance quietly drains around $90 a month. An $11,000 balance? Roughly $200 a month — every month, before a single dollar touches what you actually owe. That’s the trick of credit card interest: it doesn’t arrive as one big painful bill. It leaks out of your budget a few dollars a day, which is exactly why balances feel frozen even when you never miss a payment. This free monthly interest check shows you your number on the very first tap — just pick your balance range and it estimates what you may be paying in interest each month. Two more taps and you’ll see what a 0% intro APR window could do about it. Under 30 seconds, no credit check, no SSN. Fair warning: most people don’t love the number they see — but it beats not knowing. See what your balance may be costing you here. (Note: Thank you for supporting WLTReport!

Bob Seger has one of those voices that can rock the house and soothe the soul at the same time. He began his career as a solo artist in Detroit, Michigan, in the 1960s, but got his big break with the Silver Bullet Band in the 1970s. His first major hit, Night Moves, off the album of the same name, changed the trajectory of Bob’s career. He continued releasing music well into the 2000s, but his most famous songs came from the 1970s and 1980s. In honor of those hits, Bob Seger made a big announcement on social media in June 2026.

'It's familiar fault lines'

Early warning signs of breast cancer could have been spotted years in advance using AI, suggests a new study that analyzed 88,963 mammograms performed during a 10-year period on over 31,000 patients. The researchers showed that the latest artificial intelligence technology can provide an “early alert” for the disease up to six years before a […] The post Signs of Breast Cancer Could Be Spotted 3-6 Years Before Diagnosis Using AI Screening, Shows Massive Study appeared first on Good News Network.

The Ohio Organizing Collaborative, a group focused on voter registration, criminal, and economic justice was raided by the FBI Thursday in connection with a voter fraud investigation. On Friday morning, Statehouse News Bureau’s Jo Ingles posted on X that she spoke with OCC board member Prentiss Haney, who indicated that FBI agents came to their Northeast Ohio office on Thursday. Agents reportedly searched and took laptops and other electronic devices and interviewed those with the organization. NEW – A leader of the Ohio Organizing Collaborative tells me FBI agents came to the group's Cleveland office yesterday. Prentiss Haney says members of the group have been questioned and, in some cases, laptops have been seized in a possible voter fraud case.— Jo Ingles (@joingles) June 12, 2026 In speaking with Ingles, Haney said the raid was “politically motivated” and compared it to one of the most brutal moments of the civil rights movement. “This is not normal business. I mean there’s no reason for over 100 agents to be knocking on the doors of everyday Ohioans,” he said. “Demanding and accusing people of voter fraud as if it was a witch hunt and, and scaring them with the children, following them in their cars to school and to work. I mean this was a full-out assault. I mean, we haven’t seen anything like this since Selma.” This refers to the March 7, 1965 “Bloody Sunday” incident in Selma, Alabama where state troopers attacked civil rights marchers with clubs and tear gas. “When have we ever seen federal forces used to come after civil rights leaders, community organizers, volunteers who are doing voting rights at this scale? So that is very concerning where we are at,” he added. CBS News later reported on Friday that the FBI presented a search warrant, citing “multiple sources familiar with the matter,” and noting that it was ” part of an ongoing fraud-related investigation.” The Ohio Organizing Collective describes itself as having a vision “to organize everyday Ohioans, building transformative power organizations for racial, social, and economic justice” as well as “build a democratic multi-racial populist governing coalition in Ohio.” The group has posted on social media against HB 472, a bill that just passed the state legislature and is awaiting Gov. Mike DeWine’s signature. The bill requires photo ID for mail-in ballots and is meant to “complement” a resolution the state legislature also passed that would enshrine voter ID into the constitution. Ohioans will vote on the ballot initiative in November. The group also has spoken out against Louisiana v. Callais, decided by the U.S. Supreme Court in April against racially drawn congressional districts. The Ohio Organizing Collective also took a stance against Secretary of State Frank LaRose sharing voter data with the Department of Justice to verify voter eligibility as well. Thursday’s raid has drawn the outrage of Ohio Democrats, including Reps. Shontell Brown and Joyce Beatty, as well as Democrat nominee for governor Amy Acton and former Sen. Sherrod Brown, who is running against Republican Sen. Jon Husted in the 2026 special election. Ohio Democratic Party Chairwoman Kathleen Clyde also spoke out, as did Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb. Five alarm over at @OHDems. Do they always react this way when there’s “nothing to find?” Asking for a friend. pic.twitter.com/8JTTm5ZpXC— Frank LaRose (@FrankLaRose) June 12, 2026 Marcell Strbich, who ran for secretary of state as a Republican but lost to Treasurer Robert Sprague, commented on the raid multiple times on X, claiming that “Ohio has a problem with third-party voter engagement organizations, defrauding elections,” and calling for new laws. Strbich has been vocal about the need for voter ID for mail-in ballots. I’ve been saying for a long time that Ohio has a problem with third-party voter engagement organizations, defrauding elections. This FBI raid should result in laws prohibiting non-election official activities. We already have online voter registration. https://t.co/znZF2TcHjx— Marcell Strbich (@marcellstrbich) June 12, 2026 CBS News’ reporting noted that in 2017, “a paid canvasser for Ohio Organizing Collaborative pleaded guilty for involvement in a fraudulent voter registration scheme.” The Daily Signal reached out to the organization and the FBI but did not hear back in time. A DOJ official told CBS News that the affidavit is under seal. “Search warrants are authorized by a judge and anything said by any organization or others in the media is unfounded speculation, as the target of any investigation is not privy to the search warrant affidavit until after the indictment,” the official said.

Politicians promise they’ll “help” us. President Donald Trump says he’ll “create the jobs and future you deserve.” President Joe Biden liked to say, “Help is on the way.” I prefer President Ronald Reagan’s: “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are, ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’” An economy runs best when government gets out of the way and lets free market competition work. Economist Donald Boudreaux gets that, and it’s why “The Triumph of Economic Freedom” is the title of his new book. Boudreaux explains in my new video: “The more we move away from free markets, the worse things become.” Biden’s spending increased inflation, and his administration gave billions of dollars to politically connected companies like Intel. Now, Trump’s doing similar things. “Free markets are on the ropes now,” says Boudreaux. “It’s really important that people step back, look at economic history … they’ll see that we prosper more the more economically free we are.” Now, people blame greed and free markets for the high cost of housing and daycare. “Housing is rising in prices chiefly because of government!” says Boudreaux. “Land use restrictions reduce the supply and restrict building. Rent control reduces the supply of rental housing … Daycare is riddled with government regulations, which raises the cost of those things.” Houses and daycare would be cheaper and better if capitalists were allowed to freely serve their customers without government intrusion. Likewise, AI will lower costs, but it will also eliminate jobs, so ignorant politicians like Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., want laws to protect existing jobs. Bad idea, says Boudreaux. “Some jobs are destroyed, but others are created. The jobs created tend to be better … If we had today the same technology we had 40 years ago, the only web designers would have eight legs … Our living standards rise as a result of these innovations … People might not like change, but you can’t get economic growth without it.” Some politicians want to tell stores how many self-checkout lanes they’re allowed and how many employees must work at registers. “How does government know the ‘right’ number of workers in any business?! That’s up to those businesses,” says Boudreaux. “It’s in their interest to run their companies as efficiently as possible, which keeps down prices. When government does things like this, that’s going to raise the prices.” Seattle’s new socialist Mayor Katie Wilson says she’ll help people by making sure they have more leisure time. “You should have time to read a book and lay on the grass,” she says. “We need bread. But we need roses, too.” “Pretty words,” laughs Boudreaux, “but what business is it of government to decide how people should spend their time? That’s an individual decision. Why should government put its finger on the scale?” “To make life nicer,” I say. “If I want to work more, you’re making life worse for me, not nicer. I can smell the roses on my own time.” Wilson also says, “We cannot allow giant grocery chains to … close stores at will and leave behind food deserts.” “What she’s proposing,” replies Boudreaux, “is to prevent stores from closing or downsizing. Once she does that, she’ll find that fewer stores will move in. The long-run effect will be fewer grocery stores in Seattle.” Politicians’ belief that they know better how to help people sometimes leads to absurd ideas, like a Minnesota legislator’s plan to study the “benefits of shoplifting” because “perhaps people are relying on that … maybe it’s assisting them.” “Let’s then also study the benefits of pickpocketing, armed robbery and burglary,” replies Boudreaux. “After all, those people get income from that.” “These politicians just want to be kind,” I push back. “It’s not kind to people victimized by shoplifting. [It] raises the cost of operating grocery stores … which raises grocery prices that low-income families have to pay.” More often than not, government tries to help but makes things worse.

For years, AI elites like Sam Altman, Jensen Huang, and even Elon Musk touted a future in which AI stole all the jobs and humanity simply accepted a life of meaningless unemployment while receiving a meager allowance of universal basic income until our dying days. Something changed recently, though, and several of those same elites are suddenly backpedaling on their promises of the past. What changed? There are a few possibilities.Seemingly all at once, the CEOs of the world’s leading AI platforms, particularly OpenAI and Anthropic, both reneged on their opinions on artificial intelligence in the workplace. Where AI was once prophetically decreed to replace everyone's jobs, now these bots are being positioned as tools to enhance human productivity instead.But why? For what reason would the AI CEOs, who once plotted workplace domination, suddenly turn back on their greedy aspirations? Did they suddenly remember that humanity must somehow live on after all the jobs dry up? That their companies will lose money if consumers don’t exist to buy products and services? That it’s actually evil to force people into unemployment amid a hostile takeover of the entire economy?Public sentiment around AI is at an all-time low, and it continues to bottom out.Maybe. Or perhaps something is forcing their hands.Four reasons the AI job apocalypse is finishedIt’s IPO timeBoth OpenAI and Anthropic are at pivotal points in their meteoric rise to ubiquity. Neither company is turning a profit, and as time drags on, venture capitalists, who will never get a return on investment with generative AI, are more likely to reduce or even pull their funding. That means AI companies looking to survive the impending bubble have to find funding elsewhere. The answer is to go public.The two AI giants plan to launch IPOs this year, and they need strong public support to drive value. If the companies are perceived as harmful or even complicit in obliterating the workforce and killing the economy, their IPOs will tank. As a result, they have pulled back on the dystopian warnings of mass unemployment as they tidy up their reputations to portray benevolent corporations bent on helping humanity instead of hindering it.Reality checkWhile the AI CEOs promised a workplace revolution on the backs of their LLMs, the real-world applications for these platforms have fallen short of expectations. In May, Starbucks retired its AI-powered inventory system, despite supposed “improved product availability in stores” ushered in by the service. Employees responded by praising the change, saying, in effect, thanks for discontinuing automatic counting! The thought behind it was great, but the execution was proving difficult.Also in May, a Gartner study revealed that 80% of companies that replaced employees with AI did not see better returns. Meanwhile, companies that added AI to their workforce to enhance the productivity of existing employees without eliminations saw the strongest gains, highlighting the need for skilled employees to coexist alongside AI platforms.RELATED: Google's new daily helper knows all about you. Just how creepy is it? Google's new daily helper knows all about you. Just how creepy is it? Marina113/Getty Images Lastly, some companies, like Meta, are learning the hard way that AI isn’t a replacement for human intellect. As we reported in early June, hackers tricked Meta’s AI customer support bot into changing the passwords on high-profile Instagram accounts with little security to stand in the way. This was a massive blunder for Meta — which recently laid off 8,000 employees in favor of AI — in what became the company’s largest account breach ever.Public protestsPublic sentiment around AI is at an all-time low, and it continues to bottom out as time goes on. Just last month, numerous videos surfaced of college graduates booing commencement speakers for merely bringing up AI. Young people looking to enter the workforce, where entry-level positions are among the first to dissolve in the AI race, seemingly appear to hate LLMs. Since this demographic is the future customer base for AI giants, OpenAI and Anthropic would be stupid to continue to ruin young people’s lives with more promises of job replacements.Another point of contention among the people focuses around data centers. Not only do these massive buildings devour local energy, there are also growing reports that they generate loud noises that have caused some unsettling health effects, including headaches, dizziness, nausea, sleep disturbances, and more.Hefty price tagsFinally, companies are learning that AI is expensive to run at scale. Microsoft, one of the leaders in the AI space, canceled its Claude Code licenses for employees just months after starting the program. Although no official reason was given, the high cost and volume of Claude tokens required for sophisticated projects is believed to be the culprit. At the same time, Uber’s chief operating officer cited concerns over the high cost of AI that made it difficult to justify. Even AI GPU maker NVIDIA admitted that human employees cost less than AI bots.During a recent event, Sam Altman was asked about the sizeable AI costs for businesses. He feigned ignorance, stating that "the issue never came up” in the past when setting the prices for companies. "People were totally happy with the amount they were spending.” That appears to no longer be the case.
