New data shows public interest in the “Epstein Files” has plummeted in the United States just as the U.S.–Israel conflict with Iran began dominating headlines. According to Google Trends, searches related to the Epstein documents — which include millions of pages of court records and interview summaries released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act — have fallen sharply as attention shifts to the war and its global implications.

The drop doesn’t mean the files are no longer available — they remain searchable online — but it does reflect how quickly major geopolitical events can eclipse other news stories in the public’s attention.

A Missouri grandmother is fighting to pass “Bentley’s Law,” a bill that would require drunk drivers who kill a parent to pay child support to the victim’s surviving children. The measure is named after her grandsons, Bentley and Mason, whose parents and baby sibling died in a drunk driving crash in 2021.

If approved, payments would begin roughly one year after the offender is released from prison and continue until the child turns 18, or up to 21 if they are still enrolled in school. Similar laws already exist in Tennessee, Kentucky, Texas, and Maine.

Supporters say the law would hold offenders more fully accountable while helping children left behind cover housing, education, and other basic needs — ensuring the loss of a parent doesn’t also mean financial hardship.

Former President Jimmy Carter, who served from 1977 to 1981, is widely noted as the last U.S. president who did not authorize a bombing campaign against another country during his time in office.

Carter’s presidency focused heavily on diplomacy, including brokering the historic Camp David Accords between Egypt and Israel and emphasizing human rights in U.S. foreign policy.

Since then, every U.S. administration has authorized some form of military strike or bombing operation abroad.
