A U.S. District Judge has officially dropped key federal charges against former Louisville Police Detective Joshua Jaynes and Former Sgt. Kyle Meany regarding their alleged ‘involvement’ in Breonna Taylor’s death, which occurred back in 2020.

Aner Shapiro, 22, died in the brutal October 7 Hamas music festival massacre, as he protected partygoers and caught seven deadly explosives with his bare hands. His mother told Kan News that Shapiro stood by the entrance of a bomb shelter where around 30 festival goers were hiding from the attack - tossing the grenades back outside. “He stood at the entrance, and threw the grenades out and he managed to save so many people,” she said. Chilling video shows Hamas gunmen swarming the shelter and tossing explosives in repeatedly for several minutes.

Former President Donald Trump’s political organization shared a statement Wednesday from the mother of one of the Marines who died in last month’s ISIS terror attack in Afghanistan — in which the woman implored Trump to seek the presidency again in 2024. “President Trump has to run,” said Kathy McCollum, whose son Rylee was one of 13 US service members killed Aug. 26 by a suicide bomber outside the Abbey Gate at Hamid Karzai International Airport, in a message disseminated by Trump’s Save America PAC.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A judge on Thursday refused prosecutors’ request to issue a new arrest warrant for an 18-year-old from Illinois who is accused of killing two people during a police brutality protest in Wisconsin last summer. Kenosha County Circuit Judge Bruce Schroeder also rejected prosecutors’ request for a $200,000 bail increase for Kyle Rittenhouse, who came to Kenosha in August as hundreds were protesting the police shooting of Jacob Blake, a Black man. Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger said in court filings that prosecutors realized Rittenhouse was no longer living at his apartment in Antioch, Illinois, when a...
