• Bedminster approves 140 apartments with affordable housing (mycentraljersey.com) — Bedminster’s Land Use Board has approved a 140-unit apartment complex at Route 202-206 and Burnt Mills Road, including 28 affordable units and new retail space. The project will add a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments plus amenities, while keeping both existing bank branches on the site. 
• Fighter jets intercept plane over Ohio, where Trump attended event (newsnationnow.com) — Recent airspace violations over Bedminster prompted NORAD fighter jets to intercept small planes that strayed into temporary flight restrictions near Trump National Golf Club. Similar interceptions also occurred over East Rutherford during the World Cup Final, underscoring how high-profile events and locations in our area trigger tight federal airspace security and visible jet and flare activity residents may notice overhead.
• Eric Trump Raises Eyebrows With Bizarrely Edited Photo Of His Kids With Grandpa Trump (polinews.org) — Donald Trump’s Bedminster golf club was the backdrop for a weekend of widely mocked, heavily edited family photos shared online by Eric Trump and his father. The images, taken during the LIV Golf New York tournament at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster, sparked criticism and jokes about obvious AI-style alterations.
