RT 14 m 57 s .... ...Susan Kokinda links a third assassination attempt on Donald Trump at the Washington Hilton—where a 31-year-old Californian, Cole Tomas Allen, charged a Secret Service checkpoint with firearms and knives—to a broader political struggle she frames as the British imperial system versus Trump’s “American System.” She argues Trump’s own remarks about assassinations point to a pattern of targeting “impactful” leaders, comparing today’s climate to anarchist-era killings around 1900 and the 1901 assassination of William McKinley. Kokinda ties the attack’s timing to King Charles’ Washington visit, a new book, The Queen and Her Presidents, and a...

A hot air balloon slammed into a Sacramento-area casino building Monday afternoon and stayed in the air after the chaotic tumble. Sister station KCRA's LiveCopter 3 captured the moment the balloon slammed into a building as Sky River Casino was celebrating a groundbreaking for a new hotel. The video showed the basket of the balloon hit the side of the building, at one point reaching a 90-degree angle, while there was someone still inside the basket. The balloon kept going, attempting to descend for a landing, then aborting the effort and climbing back into the sky. LiveCopter 3 observed the...

From a "Day On The Green" concert promoted by Bill Graham, 2 July 1977. A brilliant live performance, they also played "Sweet Home Alabama". I was able to replace the audio as this performance was used in "Freebird - The Movie" of which a soundtrack album was issued. Unfortunately there is no track for "Sweet Home Alabama". MtnClimber: I saw the band on October 18, 1977 at the Lakeland (FL) civic center on the next to the last performance before the plane crash. It was the 5th time I had seen them.

This winter, the Upper Colorado Basin saw some of the lowest snow totals in recorded history. As a result, federal officials made a decision to limit water releases from Lake Powell downstream in the coming months. Officials say that will result in substantial drops in Lake Mead's elevation. "All we’re seeing are depletions,” Kyle Roerink, advocate with the Great Basin Water Network, said. “We are dealing with changing snowpacks, changing runoff patterns, increasing evaporation rates, drier soils, and other natural phenomena that are depleting our bank accounts and our savings accounts," he said. Water managers face an encroaching deadline for...

Explanation: Can you find the comet? Somewhere through this web of satellite trails is Comet C/2025 R3 (PanSTARRS), a bright visitor passing through the inner Solar System. Now, the orbiting satellites themselves only appear as streaks because of the long camera exposure, over 10 minutes in this case. On the contrary, to the eye, satellites appear as points that drift slowly across the night sky and shine by reflecting sunlight -- primarily just after sunset and before sunrise. The featured image was taken just before sunrise two weeks ago from Bavaria, Germany. Presently, Comet R3 PanSTARRS is hard to see...

On Sunday night’s The Weekend: Primetime, MS NOW reporter Josh Einiger professed uncertainty about the White House Correspondents’ Dinner attacker’s “motive” and “ideology”—despite his manifesto spelling both out in unmistakable terms. Reporting on the investigation into suspect Cole Allen, Einiger cited messages sent by the attacker to family members before the incident. He noted that the writings were “described as anti-Trump in nature,” but claimed they were “not aligned to one specific ideology.” He described himself as a "friendly federal assassin," but he was "not entirely sure what that means in terms of a motive." Did anyone on this show...

The world record for the longest tiramisu has been smashed by chefs in London. At 1,445ft, the gargantuan offering needed 50,000 ladyfinger biscuits for the base and more than 3,000 eggs to make the light fluffy filling. One hundred Italian cooks gathered at Cheslea Town Hall over the weekend to whip up one of their country's best known desserts and dedicate it to the royals. Mirko Ricci, the organiser, was delighted when his staff came in nearly 500ft longer than the previous record holders Milanese Galbani who are based in Milan. Mr Ricci said the pudding is 'the most incredible...
