Fox News reported that video captured the SS United States tilting and sinking into the Gulf of America as divers near Destin, Florida, prepared to explore the massive wreck. The headline described the ship as legendary and said divers were preparing for a first look.

The Fox News item did not list an author in the material provided. The summary does not say when the video was recorded, how far the ship sank, or what divers expect to find. It also does not give a timeline for the planned exploration.

In a separate item, The Hill published an opinion piece by Don Scott, an opinion contributor, titled Want to be president? Look to the states. The piece's summary frames the argument around presidential ambitions and the role of the states. According to that summary, whatever a president has and whatever a president wants "goes through the states."

Because the piece is an opinion contribution, its views belong to its author rather than to the outlet's reporting. The summary does not describe the examples or evidence the author uses to support the argument.

The two items cover unrelated subjects, and the material provided does not link the sinking of the ship to the opinion piece. Both items carry a publication timestamp of November 12, 2026, in the source material.
