EXCERPT:
The deceased gunman who opened fire at a White House checkpoint on Saturday evening has been identified as 21-year-old Nasire Best, a man with a history of mental illness who was known to local law enforcement and the Secret Service.
Prior to the incident, Best had prior encounters with security at White House checkpoints. According to a report from the New York Post, he had been issued an order to stay away from the White House following an incident in 2025.
Available information on Best’s background is limited in initial reporting, though a law enforcement source familiar with the case told the outlet that he had a documented history of mental illness and reportedly referred to himself as Jesus Christ.
Law enforcement is reviewing these details, along with his digital records and any previous interactions, as part of the motive investigation. Best is believed to have acted alone, with no evidence of accomplices reported at this time.
Specifics regarding Best’s employment, education, family background, or other personal history have not been publicly detailed in early updates. The FBI and Secret Service are examining his movements prior to the incident, how he obtained the firearm, and the full context of his earlier checkpoint contacts.

OTTAWA — A majority of the House of Commons voted against a non-binding motion on Monday that called on the federal government to protect private property from First Nations land claims — a political issue the Crown-Indigenous Relations minister has said is rife with partisan rhetoric.
The motion stems from a 2025 B.C. Supreme Court ruling that confirmed the Cowichan Tribes hold Aboriginal title over about 300 hectares of land in Richmond, B.C.
The ruling led to questions about how Aboriginal title and private property rights can coexist.
B.C. and the Cowichan Tribes have both said they do not want to invalidate any privately held fee simple titles on the lands covered by the court decision.
The Trump-Xi summit saw Chairman Xi claim the U.S. and China should be working together; while making it clear recognizing Taiwan was off the table. President Trump hinted at major business deals, and the progressive press largely covered the event as a victory for China over Trump.

China has been keeping its cards close to the vest as it has warily watched U.S. forces take out most of the senior Iranian leadership in the last 17 days with Operation Epic Fury. Trump, meanwhile, has worked since the beginning of his administration to rebalance the rules of trade between the two powerful countries, as he believes the deck has long been stacked in the People’s Republic’s favor:
The summit was meant to focus on trade, as both Trump and Xi seek to extend a delicate tariff truce between the world’s two biggest economies. But China showed little immediate sign that it was bothered by the likely delay, which analysts told NBC News may actually prove beneficial to efforts to further stabilize relations.
Trump said Monday that his China trip planned for later this month could be postponed because of the war, telling reporters in Washington, “I think it’s important that I be here.” But his administration has not confirmed that the trip is delayed or shared more specific dates for when it would be rescheduled.

Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ) stands accused of exposing top secret information on CBS News’ Face the Nation. He was reacting after having attended a Pentagon classified briefing on the Iran War’s impact on stockpiled weapons. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is seeking legal counsel on whether charges can be brought against Kelly or not.
He told Face the Nation, “… the numbers are, I think it’s fair to say it’s shocking how deep we have gone into these magazines, because this president got our country into this without a strategic goal, without a plan, without a timeline, and because of that, we’ve expended a lot of munitions, and that means the American people are less safe, whether it’s a conflict in the western Pacific with China or somewhere else in the world, the munitions are depleted. You may have seen me ask the Secretary of Defense this question about how long it’s going to take to replenish. We’re talking about years.”

Abortion pill rulings bring the issue back to the forefront in a midterm election year – 10TV

Excerpt:
Back-to-back court rulings on abortion pill access are thrusting a contentious political issue back into the spotlight ahead of this year’s midterm elections that will determine control of Congress for the second half of President Donald Trump’s term.
Friday’s ruling from a federal appeals court restricted mail access to mifepristone prescriptions, one of the most common abortion methods around the country, in the biggest shift to federal abortion policy since the Supreme Court’s 2022 decision allowing states to enforce abortion bans.
The Supreme Court then temporarily restored broad access to the drug on Monday while it further considers the case, setting the stage for a potential decision that could have wide-ranging consequences for patients and providers.
