Maryland Bus Smashes Into Cars And Building, Leaving Over 30 Injured [WATCH]

/

More than 30 people were injured Wednesday after a Maryland Transit Administration bus crashed into multiple vehicles before striking a building in Pikesville, Maryland, triggering a large emergency response and prompting officials to close nearby roads as rescue crews worked at the scene, as reported by The New York Post.

The crash occurred along Reisterstown Road, just outside Baltimore. According to Baltimore County officials, the collision involved numerous civilian vehicles, including one that overturned during the incident.

Emergency responders were dispatched quickly as reports indicated multiple injuries and people trapped inside damaged vehicles.

Authorities said one person became trapped inside the bus while another individual was trapped inside a passenger vehicle.

Firefighters and rescue crews worked to free both victims. Officials also said one critically injured patient was extricated from the scene and transported to a nearby hospital for treatment.

Because of the number of injured people, the Baltimore County Fire Department issued a second mass casualty incident alarm to bring additional emergency personnel and resources to the scene.

First responders continued treating victims while securing the crash area.

A building engineer was also dispatched after the bus struck a structure, allowing officials to evaluate the building for any potential damage and determine whether it remained safe.

Investigators had not announced what caused the crash as emergency operations continued.

Officials have not released additional information about the conditions of the other injured victims or whether anyone inside the building was hurt.

Maryland Gov. Wes Moore said state officials were monitoring the situation and coordinating with local authorities as the response unfolded.

In a statement posted on X, Moore said, “Dawn and I are keeping everyone impacted in our hearts and prayers. We are deeply grateful for our first responders who acted with speed and skill to ensure the safety of our neighbors.”

He added, “We’ve been in close coordination with local officials to provide any support needed on the ground.”

The Maryland State Highway Administration announced that roads surrounding the crash site were closed while emergency personnel remained at the scene.

Motorists were urged to avoid the area and use alternate routes until investigators completed their work and the roadway could be safely reopened.

The investigation remains ongoing as authorities work to determine what led to the collision.

Officials have not released additional details regarding the sequence of events or whether any charges or citations are expected as part of the investigation.

Emergency crews remained on scene for several hours on Wednesday, assisting victims, documenting the crash, and clearing damaged vehicles from the roadway while investigators continued gathering evidence.

Boeing 737 Cargo Jet Disappears, Massive Search Underway for Five Crew [WATCH]

Pakistani authorities launched a search operation after a K2 Airways Boeing 737 cargo aircraft carrying five crew members disappeared over the Arabian Sea while flying from Sharjah, United Arab Emirates, to Karachi, Pakistan, as reported by Trending Politics News.

According to officials, K2 Airways Flight 1732 departed Sharjah on Tuesday and was en route to Karachi when the crew reported a “navigation system problem.”

Radar and radio contact with the aircraft were lost at approximately 9:21 p.m. local time, about 155 nautical miles west of Karachi.

Radar data reportedly indicated the aircraft entered a rapid descent shortly before contact was lost.

On Wednesday, officials announced that wreckage had been located 53 nautical miles south of Ormara, but no crew members had been found.

The aircraft was identified as a 27-year-old Boeing 737-400 freighter, registration AP-BOI, according to aviation databases Airfleets.net and Planespotters.net. The plane was the only aircraft operated by K2 Airways.

Following the disappearance, Pakistani military and civilian agencies initiated a large search-and-rescue effort across the Arabian Sea.

The Pakistan Navy diverted the frigate PNS Zulfiqar to the search area, while the Pakistan Air Force deployed aircraft to assist.

A Pakistan Navy ATR aircraft also departed from Turbat, about 270 miles west of Karachi, to support the operation.

Aviation analyst Imran Aslam told ARY News that the aircraft’s reported rapid descent was unusual.

He said:

“I still cannot understand how the plane went down so abruptly instead of gliding.”

According to the report, Aslam noted that even if an aircraft experiences an engine failure, it would normally continue gliding rather than descend so quickly.

Authorities have not determined the cause of the crash.

According to K2 Airways’ website, the airline was established in 2018, and its first Boeing 737-400SF arrived in Karachi on July 1, 2024.

The company states that its mission is to “connect businesses by providing safe, efficient, and innovative air cargo,” and adds:

“We aim to expand our fleet and operations, further solidifying our position as a leader in Pakistan’s aviation.”

Investigators continue working to determine what caused the aircraft to disappear, while search crews continue looking for the five missing crew members.

Christian Parents Jailed For Homeschooling Spark Outrage Over State Control [WATCH]

A Brazilian couple, Audato and Ieda Denardi, has been sentenced to 50 days in prison after homeschooling their two daughters, a case that has drawn attention to parental rights and homeschooling laws in Brazil, as reported by Trending Politics News.

The couple was convicted by a criminal court in São Paulo of “intellectual neglect” after educating their daughters, ages 15 and 11, at home without following a state-approved curriculum.

According to Alliance Defending Freedom International (ADF International), which is providing legal support, the court found fault with the family’s educational program because it did not include subjects such as “gender and sex education” and “tolerance and diversity.”

ADF International also said the court criticized the family’s approach to cultural education, citing the daughters’ preference for religious and classical music instead of popular genres such as trap or sertanejo.

Defense attorney Isabel Monteiro argued that the conviction was based on ideology rather than evidence, stating the judge made an “ideological decision to convict them.”

She said the ruling relied in part on the older daughter’s preference for sacred music over mainstream music.

The family began homeschooling in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic after concluding that their daughters’ schools were not providing an adequate education.

After formally withdrawing the girls from school in 2022, state officials began visiting the family’s home and encouraging them to reenroll the children.

The parents told Fox News Digital they were shocked by the prison sentence and never expected to face jail for homeschooling. According to the family, both daughters are accomplished pianists and speak multiple languages.

Even state prosecutors recommended acquittal after an independent educational psychologist evaluated the girls and concluded they showed no signs of neglect and were thriving both academically and socially.

Monteiro said the family submitted more than 3,000 pages of evidence supporting its case, but the judge rejected the prosecution’s recommendation.

According to ADF International, the judge wrote that the parents were “using their daughters as pawns in an ideological struggle, subjecting them to a form of unregulated education, the effectiveness and quality of which lack adequate metrics within the Brazilian legal system, while completely excluding the State’s involvement.”

Audato Denardi said the sentence has placed significant emotional strain on the family.

“It has affected a lot… Now we have to sleep and wake up every day, thinking about that we can go to prison.”

He also expressed concern about who would care for the children if both parents are incarcerated.

“That is our biggest problem in all this stuff, because we’re going to have to stay 50 days without them, and who’s going to stay with them?”

The case highlights the unsettled legal status of homeschooling in Brazil. In 2019, Brazil’s Supreme Court ruled that homeschooling is not unconstitutional but said lawmakers must establish regulations.

Although the House of Representatives passed a regulatory framework in 2022, the measure stalled in the Senate, leaving no comprehensive legal framework in place.

The Denardis remain free while appealing what ADF International says is believed to be Brazil’s first criminal prosecution over homeschooling.

Their appeal will be heard by the 7th Criminal Chamber of the Court of Justice of the State of São Paulo.

Audato Denardi said he hopes the appeals court overturns the conviction, stating:

“We are waiting for real justice and the court to give us this acquittal that we think we deserve because the state can’t change law based on ideology.”

President Trump Pounds Iran With 90 Strikes And Warns It Could Get ‘Much Worse’ [WATCH]

President Trump Pounds Iran With 90 Strikes And Warns It Could Get ‘Much Worse’ [WATCH]

The United States launched a new round of military strikes against Iran on Wednesday after President Donald Trump said Tehran would face additional consequences following attacks on commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, as reported by Townhall.

According to the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), American forces struck approximately 90 Iranian military targets during the operation.

The targets included air defense systems, coastal surveillance assets, missile and drone storage sites, naval capabilities, and military logistics infrastructure positioned along Iran’s coastline.

CENTCOM said the operation was intended to reduce Iran’s ability to threaten international maritime traffic through one of the world’s most important shipping lanes.

In a statement released Wednesday night, CENTCOM said, “U.S. forces struck approximately 90 Iranian military targets, including air defense systems, coastal surveillance assets, missile and drone storage sites, naval capabilities, and military logistics infrastructure along Iran’s coastline.”

The military command added that the objective of the operation was “to further degrade Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping and innocent civilian mariners in the Strait of Hormuz.”

Earlier in the evening, Trump announced on Truth Social that the military response was tied directly to recent Iranian attacks on ships.

“This is in retribution for yesterday’s bombing of ships by Iran,” Trump wrote.

He also warned Tehran against any additional attacks.

“If it happens again, it will get much worse!” he wrote.

The United States has maintained that Iran repeatedly violated the memorandum of understanding by targeting cargo vessels operating in the Strait of Hormuz.

American officials have accused Iran of carrying out attacks against commercial shipping in the strategic waterway, prompting the latest military response.

CENTCOM also released a statement on X describing the mission and its purpose.

“At the direction of the Commander in Chief, U.S. Central Command forces have started conducting additional strikes against Iran to further degrade their ability to threaten freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz,” the statement said.

“The United States is holding Iran accountable for recent unjustified aggression against commercial shipping and civilian crews freely navigating a vital international waterway,” it continued.

The latest operation follows comments Trump made earlier Wednesday while discussing the status of the ceasefire with Iran.

The president indicated he believed the ceasefire had effectively ended and suggested he was no longer interested in pursuing negotiations with Iranian leaders.

Speaking before departing Turkey after attending the NATO summit, Trump expressed frustration with Iran’s leadership and questioned whether additional negotiations would be productive.

“They’re not doing a service to the people. And I’m not sure I want to make a deal with them […] Let’s just finish the job,” Trump said.

Earlier in the day, Trump also referred to Iranian negotiators as “scum” and suggested he no longer wanted to negotiate with them, although he said he would continue consulting with U.S. negotiators.

The military action marks another escalation in tensions between Washington and Tehran as the United States seeks to deter further attacks on international shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.

The latest strikes focused on degrading Iran’s military capabilities connected to maritime operations, including missile, drone, naval, and logistics assets located along the country’s coastline.

Trump was returning to the United States from Turkey following the NATO summit as the strikes were carried out.

Dhillon Cracks Down On Illegal Voting As DOJ Sends Election Monitors To Six States [WATCH]

/

Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon announced that the Department of Justice will deploy election monitors to primary elections in six states: Arizona, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, and Virginia, as reported by Red State.

The announcement was highlighted by conservative activist Scott Presler, who noted that the Biden administration also used DOJ election monitors during the 2022 and 2024 election cycles.

Separately, the Justice Department sent letters to election officials in all 50 states warning that officials who knowingly allow non-U.S. citizens to vote or remain on voter rolls could face criminal liability under federal law.

The letters ask states to explain within five days how they will comply with federal election laws designed to prevent noncitizens from voting.

According to reporting cited in the article, Dhillon’s letters state that election officials who knowingly retain noncitizens on voter registration rolls or facilitate their voting could be subject to criminal prosecution.

The letters also note that conspiracies to deprive citizens of their constitutional rights may violate federal criminal law and encourage state officials to work with the Justice Department on maintaining accurate voter rolls.

The article references reporting from CBS News and discusses broader debates over election integrity and voter identification requirements. It also notes public polling cited by the author, indicating broad support for voter ID laws.

The piece contrasts the Trump administration’s election monitoring efforts with similar DOJ monitoring conducted during the Biden administration, arguing that election monitors have been used by both administrations.

The article concludes by urging Congress to pass the SAVE Act, legislation that would require proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in federal elections, and argues that doing so would address many election integrity concerns.

Left-Wing Host Corners El Sayed Over ‘Physician’ Label, Dem Senate Hopeful Struggles To Explain [WATCH]

Left-Wing Host Corners El Sayed Over ‘Physician’ Label, Dem Senate Hopeful Struggles To Explain [WATCH]

/

Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed faced pointed questions from left-wing host Mehdi Hasan during a Zeteo interview on Wednesday as the closely watched Democratic primary continues to draw scrutiny over El-Sayed’s use of the title “physician” and the timing of his personal financial disclosures, as reported by Fox News.

Hasan opened the discussion by referencing criticism from El-Sayed’s Democratic rivals regarding his repeated description of himself as a physician despite not holding a valid state medical license in either Michigan or New York.

“You got attacked by your rivals for calling yourself a physician, not just a doctor, even though you don’t have a valid state medical license in New York or Michigan, which apparently is what you need legally to call yourself a physician,” Hasan said during the interview.

“Do you wish you’d just stuck to calling yourself a doctor, which you are, to avoid all of this controversy and attacks on your physician status?”

El-Sayed responded by shifting the discussion away from his credentials and toward policy issues.

“You know, at the end of the day, it’s not about whether or not I’m a physician or a doctor,” El-Sayed said. “It’s not about my education. It’s about whether or not your kid gets a good education.”

Hasan then followed up by questioning whether the issue involved honesty rather than education.

“That’s a good line, but people would say it’s also about did you tell the truth?” Hasan said.

The exchange centered on criticism that El-Sayed has referred to himself as a physician throughout his Senate campaign and in public biographies, even though records indicate he has never held a medical license in Michigan or New York.

El-Sayed defended his background by pointing to his work in public health rather than clinical medicine.

“Well, I would say that I was the health director for the city of Detroit, and I’ve done more to provide more people healthcare or eliminate their medical debt than most doctors have done in their practice career,” El-Sayed said.

“So, I’m proud of the work that I did.”

He also addressed his medical education, explaining that he chose a different professional path after graduating from Columbia University.

“I took my medical education in a different direction,” El-Sayed said.

“And I did graduate from a school that’s literally called Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons. So, you know, you can go have that argument with Columbia University if you’d like.”

Fox News Digital reported that El-Sayed’s campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment regarding the issue.

Hasan also questioned El-Sayed about his decision to delay filing his personal financial disclosure, noting that Democratic Rep. Haley Stevens of Michigan had criticized both El-Sayed and Republican Mike Rogers over financial transparency during the campaign.

“You sought an extension through Aug. 13, I believe, which is after the primary,” Hasan said.

“Was this to avoid transparency with your voters? Why not release them before the election?”

El-Sayed attributed the extension to complications involving his family’s taxes and overseas property holdings.

“No, just taxes get complicated,” El-Sayed said. “My wife and her family own property abroad, and so, getting all those tax forms is a thing.”

According to Bridge Michigan, El-Sayed filed an extension that delays his 2026 personal financial disclosure until Aug. 13, which falls after Michigan’s Aug. 4 Democratic Senate primary.

Bridge Michigan also reported that Stevens requested 90-day extensions for her personal financial disclosures every year from 2019 through 2025, although she did not seek an extension this year.

Stevens’ campaign said El-Sayed had publicly committed during a WOOD-TV debate to release his financial disclosures before voters cast their ballots in the Aug. 4 primary.

Following that commitment, Haley Stevens, for Senate communications director Arik Wolk, called on El-Sayed to release the records immediately.

“Now, the clock is ticking. Abdul needs to make good on his promise to Michiganders and release his PFD immediately. What is he hiding?” Wolk said.

The Democratic primary between former Wayne County Health Department Director Abdul El-Sayed and Rep. Haley Stevens is scheduled for Aug. 4, 2026, with the winner advancing in the race for Michigan’s U.S. Senate seat.

ICE Issues Detainer for Haitian Illegal Alien Accused of Brutal Murder After Biden Release [WATCH]

/

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has lodged an immigration detainer against Valmir Djempsley, a 20-year-old Haitian national, who is charged with the death of a co-worker at a Michigan meat processing plant, as reported by The Post Millennial.

According to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Djempsley is accused of killing 21-year-old Brandon Eduardo Velasquez Chavez during an incident on June 30 at the Clemens Food Group pork processing plant in Coldwater, Michigan.

The two men worked together in the plant’s loin boning production area.

DHS said ICE has asked Michigan authorities not to release Djempsley from custody without first notifying the agency.

Acting DHS Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis said:

“This illegal alien barbarically stabbed his coworker to death.”

She also stated:

“This murderer was released into American communities by the Biden Administration. If it weren’t for the reckless open border policies of the Biden Administration, this criminal never would have been in our country in the first place, and his victim would still be alive. We have lodged a detainer asking Michigan to not release this dangerous criminal from jail without notifying ICE.”

According to court documents, an altercation occurred between Djempsley and Chavez shortly before the incident. Prosecutors allege Chavez had one of Djempsley’s assigned work knives, which reportedly angered him.

Witnesses told investigators they saw Djempsley chase Chavez through the processing plant before attacking him. Authorities said Chavez died at the scene.

Djempsley told investigators that Chavez had “head-butted” him during the confrontation. According to the report, witnesses were unable to corroborate that claim.

DHS said Djempsley unlawfully entered the United States through Texas in 2024. The department said he was apprehended and later released into the country by the Biden administration.

Djempsley pleaded not guilty to the murder charge on July 1. He remains in custody at the Branch County Jail and faces a possible sentence of life in prison if convicted.

Jasmine Crockett Suggests the Entire Country is Racist as She Endorses Five Black Men

/

Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, said race was a major factor in her Democratic primary loss to Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico, arguing that racism, not politics, determined the outcome, as reported by Breitbart.

Speaking after the primary, Crockett said:

“The reality is that there was a lot of races, not a lot, it was racist. It was a racist race. It is what it is, right? But we live in America as y’all are celebrating 250, okay? We know what this country is.”

Crockett rejected suggestions that she should have campaigned more closely with Talarico during the race.

Instead, she defended her decision to focus on supporting down-ballot candidates, noting that she endorsed five Black men in Texas runoff elections and that all five advanced to the November ballot.

She said:

“The best thing that I can do for James Talarico isn’t me standing on a stage with him. It is the fact that I endorsed five candidates in the runoff who all happen to be black men in the state of Texas and every single one of them won.”

Crockett also argued that encouraging turnout by giving voters multiple candidates to support is more effective than appearing alongside a single statewide candidate.

“People keep trying to say, ‘Well, Jasmine has to go and hold his hand.’ No, I don’t.”

She added:

“If you can give people more than one thing to vote for, then you have a better chance of getting them out to the polls.”

James Talarico defeated Crockett in the Texas Democratic primary for the U.S. Senate in March. The victory came after weeks of polling had shown Crockett holding a sizable lead.

Talarico will face Republican Sen. John Cornyn in the November general election.

Crockett also said she does not believe Black voters have fully united behind Talarico’s campaign and confirmed she will not attend the upcoming Texas Democratic Party convention.

Discussing the state of the race, she said:

“I’ve not heard a bunch of kumbaya.”

She added:

“People don’t seem to be convinced at this point, but there’s a lot of time between now and November.”

When asked whether she plans to campaign for Talarico before the general election, Crockett said she has not made a decision and remains focused on local races.

“I have no idea. I am more focused on down-ballot races in general.”

Mom Booted From Supermarket For Wearing Backless Top During Scorching Heat Wave

Mom Booted From Supermarket For Wearing Backless Top During Scorching Heat Wave

/

A mother of three in the United Kingdom says she was prevented from entering a Tesco supermarket after a security guard told her that the design of her backless top posed a concern because someone could untie it, as reported by The New York Post.

Alixe Galatis, 31, said the incident occurred on June 26 at a Tesco store in Essex, southeast England, during a period of unusually high temperatures across the country.

According to Galatis, temperatures reached approximately 99 degrees Fahrenheit that day as a heat wave affected much of the UK.

Galatis said she had just finished the school run and entered the store with her three children when a security guard approached her before she began shopping.

“It was just after the school run, I think it peaked around 36, 37 [degrees Celsius] or something crazy,” she said.

“The kids were picking up the [scan gun], and then the security was standing behind us. When I turned around, he said, ‘You’re not allowed in here.’”

According to Galatis, she asked the guard why she was not permitted to enter.

“I said, ‘Why not?’ He said, ‘You can’t come in here wearing that top because it’s got a tie-up at the back.’”

She said she was surprised by the explanation.

“I was just really confused, and the kids were a bit stunned. I don’t know why, but he wouldn’t give me any eye contact.”

Galatis said the security guard then explained his concern.

“Someone can untie your top.”

She said she had never considered that possibility.

“Again, I looked at him, so confused because that’s something that I’ve never even thought of,” she said.

Galatis said she then asked whether she could enter the store to purchase another shirt.

“I said, ‘OK, so can I go and buy a top then because I just want to get the shopping done?’ and he said, ‘No, you’re not allowed in at all.’”

According to Galatis, she returned to her vehicle, where the only additional clothing she had available was a gym sweatshirt.

“The only thing I had in my car was my gym jumper,” she said. “It was so hot, and I was thinking, ‘I can’t physically put this on,’ so I put it over my shoulders so it was covering my shoulders and my back.”

After covering her back, Galatis said she re-entered the supermarket and completed her shopping.

“We did our shop, I had the jumper around me, and then on the way out he was watching me walk out,” she said. “He was looking at me with such disdain and just shaking his head at me.”

She questioned why she had been prevented from entering the store.

“I was just completely shocked. Why should I not be allowed in the shop? If someone ever, God forbid, tried to undress me, why would that be my fault?”

Following the incident, Galatis filed a complaint with Tesco and said she does not intend to shop at the store again.

“Sometimes I pop in wearing gym gear, and no one’s ever stopped me,” she said. “It was just so bizarre that it was this top and that he said, ‘Someone can untie it and leave you exposed.’”

She added:

“Should you not be more worried about those who are untying people’s clothing rather than stopping the person who is dressed?”

Tesco later issued a statement apologizing for the incident.

“We are really sorry to hear about this experience. We want everyone to feel welcome in our stores, and this should not have happened.”

The encounter occurred during a period of extreme heat across much of Europe in late June. High temperatures affected multiple countries, and reports indicated that thousands of excess deaths were linked to the heat wave.

The unusually warm weather also led to increased demand for cooling equipment in France, where some shoppers reportedly competed for the remaining air conditioners and fans available in stores.
