Woman Killed by Police After She Stabs Young Boy at Walmart
Omaha police shot and killed a woman on Tuesday after they say she seized a 3-year-old kid at a Walmart and slashed him with a knife. The police named her Noemi Guzman and said she was 31 years old. According to WOWT, police say she stole a big knife from a store, accosted the boy and his guardian, and then had the guardian go ahead as she pushed the cart into the parking lot. Deputy Chief Scott Gray says she "took the child, which is basically kidnapping the child." Police claim the two ladies "talked back and forth" for a few minutes before officers got to the scene after getting a 911 call. Police said that officers told Guzman to drop the knife many times. According to the AP, Gray then … |

Permission To Enter America Can Vanish Mid Flight
The story, at first glance, is almost too ordinary to provoke alarm. A passenger boards a commercial flight, a child in tow, tickets purchased, itinerary confirmed, the quiet contract of modern travel intact. There is an implicit promise embedded in that exchange—not written in the fine print, but understood by millions who step onto aircraft each day—that movement, once begun, will be completed. Not without delay, perhaps, not without inconvenience, but with continuity. What occurred instead was rupture. Somewhere between departure and destination, the passenger ceased to be a traveler and became a problem. Delta Air Lines, in its response, did what corporations have trained themselves to d… |

Danger Lurks In The Bedroom
Danger lingers as a senior couple lie together in an overly warm bedroom. The air does not feel oppressive, only still, the kind of warmth that settles into fabric and skin without protest. He sleeps lightly now, age having thinned the distance between rest and vigilance. She sleeps deeper — until she does not. Her seizures arrive only at night. Grand mal, sudden, violent, disorienting in their aftermath. Daytime offers no clues. Medication remains stable. Diet unchanged. Tests return the quiet ambiguity medicine often delivers: nothing obvious, nothing solved. What remains is pattern. Always sleep. Always night. He has begun noticing the temperature. Seventy-eight degrees. Comfortable, peop… |

Gilgo Beach serial killer Rex Heuermann sentenced to life in prison without parole for killing 8 women over 2 decades
Rex Heuermann, the Gilgo Beach serial murderer, was sentenced to life in prison without parole, bringing an emotional finish to a decades-long murder case that tormented Long Island. Families clapped and applauded in the courtroom Wednesday when Judge Timothy Mazzei imposed the sentence. “You are disgusting — a despicable man if you are a man at all,” the judge told Heuermann. “And you are a coward.” At sentence, Heuermann was allowed to speak and declared, “I am guilty of everything that was said in this room. What I would say is meaningless.” “Are you even a little bit sorry?” “Yes,” Mazzei inquired, and Heuermann nodded and seemed to say. Heuermann’s ex-wife Asa Ellerup and their two grow… |

They Married When He Was Supposed to Die
Human Interest He was dying, and it was the saddest thing for their relatives, friends, and even the hospital staff. Most of all, Arlaine, his longtime girlfriend, was with him in the hospital. They'd been together for decades before the illness. Now, the room smelled of antiseptic and overripe flowers—the kind people buy when they’re afraid they’ve waited too long. The lights were too bright, and the machines emitted steady, monotonous noises. Bendigo Davies lay flat on his back, staring at a ceiling he hadn’t chosen, while Arlaine stood beside him, holding his hand like it was the last solid thing in the room. But they looked and admired each other, the smiles hiding dreadful worry. They h… |

US judge blocks Trumps 2bn anti weaponization fund
A United States federal judge has temporarily blocked President Donald Trump’s nearly $1.8bn “anti-weaponisation fund” to compensate victims of alleged government “lawfare”. On Friday, US District Judge Leonie Brinkema of the Eastern District of Virginia blocked the Trump administration from “taking any further action” to set up or operate the fund while she hears legal arguments. The judge, who was nominated to the bench by President Bill Clinton, scheduled a June 12 hearing about whether to extend the order blocking payouts. The Department of Justice announced the fund last week as part of an agreement to settle a lawsuit brought on behalf of Donald Trump, in his personal capacity, against… |

China with its axis of authoritarians is only growing stronger under Trump
As Donald Trump prepares to depart for China to meet Xi Jinping, it is a moment for America’s traditional allies to reflect on a sobering fact: the balance of power is rapidly shifting against the United States. Since becoming president, Trump’s actions have fractured America’s alliance system just as Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin have consolidated theirs. As if to underscore this, the Russian president will likely arrive in Beijing days after Trump. His will be a red carpet welcome. Donald Trump’s will be far more exposing – and we all know why. Instead of a mighty demonstration of American firepower, his Iran war has exposed huge vulnerabilities. And less discussed but no less consequentia… |

Iran Prepares for US Attack as It Rejects Negotiations
Iran is not dancing toward the negotiating table out of fear; it is bracing for war while refusing to yield. Reports that Tehran is preparing for a possible U.S.–Israeli missile assault, even as it dismisses offers to talk, underscore a new kind of tension: fear without capitulation. That is not weakness, and it is not readiness in the traditional sense. It is a regime calculating its own survival amid an increasingly hostile international environment. This moment looks nothing like the hope-tinged diplomacy of past nuclear talks. Then, there were back channels, envoys meeting in hotel suites, whispered negotiations and, at times, fragile progress. Now the language is public posturing, threa… |

Trump and US officials targeted by accused shooter
WASHINGTON — Federal authorities are investigating what they describe as a targeted attack near the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner after a man opened fire Saturday evening outside the secured perimeter of the event, prompting a rapid response from Secret Service agents and other law enforcement. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said Sunday that investigators believe the suspect intended to target President Donald Trump and members of his administration who were attending the annual dinner, one of Washington’s highest-profile political gatherings. According to Blanche, the suspect traveled from California to Washington, D.C., by train, passing through Chicago along the way… |

MSN Deteriorates Into A Pool Of Garbage
Editorial / Consumer Investigative Let’s be honest: MSN isn’t a news site anymore. It’s a digital dumpster fire where the "editors" have been replaced by a script that has the IQ of a doorstop and the ethics of a looter. It used to be a gateway to the world; now, it’s just a gateway to a 40-slide gallery about what some C-list reality star’s knees look like today. Microsoft decided that human editors—people who actually know how to spot a lie or a hack—were too expensive. So, they pushed them out the window of the Empire State Building and replaced them with an algorithm that would sell its own mother for a $0.02 ad impression. The result? A "click-and-fuck" ecosystem where the reader is the… |

The Iran strikes could become a midterm reckoning for Trump and Israel
It is clear that the latest United States-Israel-Iran war stands to fundamentally reshape the politics of the Middle East. Less obvious is its immediate impact on US politics, especially the 2026 midterm elections and the durability of US support for Israel. While the core of US President Donald Trump’s base has come out in support of the joint US-Israel strikes, some influential figures on the American right have denounced them. These condemnations have heightened tensions already at play within the MAGA (Make America Great Again) base, and dovetail with conservative concerns about Israel’s influence over US foreign policy. With the midterm elections approaching, this is not a good time for… |

The alleged bat encounter now makes it difficult for the pilot to sleep in hotels, his attorney says Removed from bookmarks A commercial pilot is suing a downtown Denver hotel after a bat allegedly sunk its teeth into his foot, leaving him with a bite he claims cost him more than $100,000 in medical bills. The alleged August 2025 incident happened while the pilot was staying on the 22nd floor of the Sheraton Denver Hotel Downtown. The pilot, who has not been publicly identified because he fears professional repercussions, alleges he was awakened in the middle of the night by bats flying through his room, CBS Colorado reports. “[He] was sleeping and he woke up to a commotion, and he woke up a… |

100 year old fighter pilot from Escondido receives Medal of Honor
This is read by an automated voice. Please report any issues or inconsistencies here. President Trump honored two storied military veterans during his State of the Union address, including 100-year-old veteran Royce Williams of Escondido, who survived what is believed to be the longest dog fight in military history. The former Navy fighter pilot, who was seated next to First Lady Melania Trump in the Capitol during the president’s address Tuesday night, flew more than 220 missions in World War II as well as the wars in Korea and Vietnam. Trump called Williams “a living legend” before describing his war-time heroics. “In the skies over Korea in 1952, Royce was in the dogfight of a lifetime, a… |

Philippine politician wanted by the International Court
Philippine Senate President claims that a lawmaker wanted by the International Court (ICC) is no longer in the Senate building, where he had been taking sanctuary, fearing his arrest. Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa, former national police commander and main enforcer of the murderous “war on drugs” under former President Rodrigo Duterte, has been ?shielded by the Senate, he is wanted for crimes against humanity, the same allegations that Duterte faces. Senate President Alan Peter Cayetano informed reporters on Thursday that the sergeant-at-arms verified he is not in the building anymore. The declaration came a day after shots rang out in the Senate, where Dela Rosa remained locked up. Confusion and … |

US says Taiwan needs to become a hornet nest of drones
Taiwan needs a “hornet’s nest” of drones to help deter conflict and provide security, says the top United States ?diplomat to the self-governing island that China claims as part of its territory. Speaking at a forum on drones in the central city of Taichung, Raymond Greene, director of the American Institute in ?Taiwan and the de facto US ambassador, said on Thursday that drones represented a “game-changing opportunity” to enhance Taiwan’s security and reinforce peace in the broader region. The US, Taiwan’s most important international backer and arms supplier despite their lack of formal diplomatic ties, has strongly supported the government’s military ?modernisation plan and increased defe… |

How to Write and Publish Science Fiction
Science fiction has always been a genre of defiance. From Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein to Octavia Butler’s Parable of the Sower, the best sci?fi stories refuse to accept the world as it is. They imagine what could be, what should be, and sometimes what must never be. Yet for the modern writer, the act of creating and publishing science fiction is itself a rebellion—against shrinking attention spans, against publishing monopolies, against the quiet pressure to write something “safe.” This is not a neutral craft. To write and publish science fiction today is to step into a contested space where art, commerce, and politics collide. 1. The Spark: Writing Against Gravity Every sci?fi story begins … |

Trump and JD Vance vilify lawless Supreme Court justices over tariff ruling
United States President Donald Trump and his vice president, JD Vance, have launched personal attacks on the justices of the US Supreme Court and their families, after the country’s top court struck down trade tariffs imposed by the White House. In a 45-minute address to reporters at the White House, the US president heaped criticism on the six justices who ruled against his signature tariff policy in the 6-3 decision by the court on Friday, including Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett, whom Trump appointed to the court during his first term. “I think it’s an embarrassment to their families, you wanna know the truth, the two of them,” Trump said, referring to Justices Gorsuch and Barrett. “I… |

Father Guns Down Mother In Front Of Daughter
A man used his vehicle to trap his former girlfriend before shooting her twice with a twelve gauge shotgun as their ten year old daughter watched, turning what began as a confrontation between former partners into a killing that has stunned the local community and left a child at the center of an unthinkable trauma. The woman had no clear path to escape once the suspect positioned his vehicle to block her movement. Witness accounts and charging documents indicate the shooting unfolded in front of the couple’s daughter, who saw her mother killed in broad daylight before emergency responders arrived at the scene. Authorities arrested the suspect shortly afterward. Prosecutors are expected to p… |

A Child Can Be Saved Now If Her Parents Can Afford the Cure
The number came before the explanation. It sat there, stark and unblinking, a figure so large it did not feel like money anymore but something abstract, like distance or time—millions, arranged neatly in digits, as if that made it reasonable. The doctor spoke afterward, carefully, almost gently, about breakthroughs, about possibility, about a future that would not have existed even a decade ago. There was no cruelty in his voice. That was the worst part. It meant the system no longer needed cruelty to do its work. The child sat in the corner, small and restless, tapping the edge of a chair, unaware that the conversation had already begun to close around her like a narrowing corridor. A cure … |
