Disturbing New Allegations Against Graham Platner

President Donald Trump is planning another addition to the White House grounds, this time with a new presidential helipad. The project would create a designated landing area for Marine One on the White House campus, adding to a series of renovations and upgrades Trump has pursued in Washington. Officials have not yet released full details on the timeline or cost of the project.

The United States has been knocked out of the FIFA World Cup after a 4-1 loss to Belgium in the Round of 16. U.S. forward Folarin Balogun returned to the lineup after FIFA lifted his one-match suspension following a controversial red card, but the Americans were unable to overcome Belgium's attack. The loss ends the U.S. tournament run and falls short of the team's goal of reaching the World Cup quarterfinals for the first time since 2002.

An Idaho woman who publicly claimed her toddler twins died after receiving routine vaccinations is now facing two counts of first-degree murder in connection with their deaths. Authorities allege Andrea Shaw suffocated her 18-month-old twins in May 2025. The charges come more than a year after Shaw appeared on an online program claiming the children died days after receiving recommended childhood vaccines. Shaw has pleaded not guilty through her attorney, who says she denies all allegations. If convicted, she could face life in prison or the death penalty.

Prosecutors presented new evidence Monday in the murder case of conservative activist Charlie Kirk as a five-day preliminary hearing got underway in Utah. A former campus police officer testified that he found what appeared to be a “sniper pad” on a gravel rooftop near where Kirk was shot at Utah Valley University. The hearing will determine whether prosecutors have enough evidence to put Tyler Robinson on trial for murder. Robinson has not yet entered a plea.

A Democratic U.S. Senate candidate in Maine is losing support after a woman accused him of sexual assault, prompting several political allies to withdraw their endorsements. Graham Platner has denied the allegation, calling any claim of non-consensual behavior "categorically untrue." He said he is considering the next steps for his campaign. The accusation stems from an alleged 2021 incident involving a woman who says Platner entered her home while intoxicated and assaulted her. The allegation was first reported by Politico. Platner has not been charged with a crime.

A tanker caught fire after being struck by a projectile while transiting the Strait of Hormuz off the coast of Oman, raising new concerns about security in one of the world's busiest shipping lanes. The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations center said the vessel was hit on its port side while departing the strait toward the Gulf of Oman. Officials said the fire was brought under control and there was no reported environmental damage. Iranian state media said the liquefied natural gas tanker had ignored navigation warnings before the incident but stopped short of claiming responsibility for the attack. Authorities are continuing to investigate what caused the strike.

The death toll from Venezuela's devastating twin earthquakes has climbed past 3,500 as search-and-rescue operations continue nearly two weeks after the disaster.

Thousands have been displaced by the powerful quakes, with widespread destruction leaving many communities without homes, power and basic services as recovery efforts continue.
