Not sure if this was posted anywhere, but this is wild. Two kids 7 and 9 had a loaded gun and were in a standoff with police in Feburary.

Probably have to wait until they release the EO to see what it is ordering and how anything is implemented.

He probably can't do it with an EO, although they might voluntarily make concessions since this seems like something Trump could actually get bipartisan support for from Congress.

A woman who tossed her boyfriend’s belongings from a balcony during an argument was killed after he allegedly threw her over a third-floor railing, police said.
According to the San Diego Police Department, 61-year-old Irene Williams and 57-year-old Albert Turner had been dating for some time, but got into an argument Monday evening.
Williams, police said, started throwing Turner’s belongings off the balcony of a third-floor apartment in the 500 block of West San Ysidro Boulevard. Turner then allegedly grabbed Williams and threw her onto the concrete below, according to authorities.
Witnesses near the apartment called police at 7:21 p.m., and reported they had seen someone throw the woman off the balcony.
When officers arrived, they found Williams in the building’s courtyard with severe head trauma and a broken leg. She was taken to a nearby hospital, but was later pronounced dead.
Turner was taken into custody and booked on suspicion of murder, being a felon in possession of a firearm and violating probation.
He is currently being held without bail in the San Diego Central Jail, according to custody records.

ST. LOUIS (KMOV/Gray News) – An 18-year-old woman was killed Saturday night in St. Louis when she fell from the roof of an SUV and was then struck by a fire truck, police said.
The woman was identified as 18-year-old Nyla Simmons.
Police said a Cadillac Escalade stopped at a red light around 11:20 p.m. Saturday. Simmons was reportedly dancing on top of the vehicle.
Once the vehicle began moving again, Simmons fell off. Moments later, she was hit by a fire truck that was responding to a call. Officials said the truck had its lights and sirens on.
Her parents remember their daughter as a social butterfly who loved a good time. They were at a loss for words trying to describe what happened to her.
“We aren’t ever going to be the same after this,” her dad Everett Simmons said.
Nyla Simmons’ parents said she was attending a friend’s prom send-off before the accident.
“We just wanted the best for Nyla, the incident is just tragic the way she died but, that’s what hurts the most, the way she died. Nyla was out having fun, that’s what she liked: having fun, hanging out with her friends,” her mom Letrice Simmons said.
Now, her parents are asking people to learn from her mistakes and be safe while having fun.
They say they don’t blame the friends that Nyla Simmons was with in the vehicle; they were just teens being teens, and that no one could have guessed the night would end with the 18-year-old losing her life.
“We’ve all been young before, we all have done some type of thing where it could have ended up bad for us,” her dad said. “We want all her people and her friends to take this and learn from it.”
Her mom added, “Don’t get on top of a car, ya’ll, just don’t get on top. Just be safe.”
Nyla Simmons was the youngest of five children. She graduated from Parkway North High School last year and was set to start cosmetology school at Grabber School of Hair Design on Monday.
“I’m highly distraught that I don’t get to see what she was going to become,” her dad said.
Police said the investigation is ongoing, but everyone involved stayed at the scene and cooperated with police.

Police find naked man in Lowe’s display shed with Vaseline and phone
WVUE (archive.ph)By FOX 8 Staff
2025-05-13 12:50 PM EDT
SLIDELL, La. (WVUE) - Slidell police responding to a call at a Lowe’s parking lot on Sunday evening reportedly found a naked man inside a display shed engaged in lewd behavior.
According to police, the call came in around 5 p.m. on May 11, 2025. A witness reported a naked male inside one of the store’s outdoor tool sheds, which are typically used to show customers various storage options for purchase.
Officers arrived at the scene and began searching the line of sheds on display. It wasn’t until the fourth or fifth shed that they located the suspect, lying on his back, pants around his ankles, using an open container of Vaseline and an electronic device while allegedly masturbating.
With taser drawn, police say the officer ordered the man to pull up his pants and roll onto his stomach to be handcuffed. Police say the man complied without resistance.
The man reportedly admitted to his actions, telling officers he was watching “YouTube” at the time. He was arrested on one count of obscenity and booked into jail.
The man is not from Slidell, according to police, who did not release his name.

Patient-Specific In Vivo Gene Editing to Treat a Rare Genetic Disease
If anyone can bypass this paywall for me I’d be very grateful!
Base editors can correct disease-causing genetic variants. After a neonate had received a diagnosis of severe carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase 1 deficiency, a disease with an estimated 50% mortality in early infancy, we immediately began to develop a customized lipid nanoparticle–delivered base-editing therapy. After regulatory approval had been obtained for the therapy, the patient received two infusions at approximately 7 and 8 months of age. In the 7 weeks after the initial infusion, the patient was able to receive an increased amount of dietary protein and a reduced dose of a nitrogen-scavenger medication to half the starting dose, without unacceptable adverse events and despite viral illnesses. No serious adverse events occurred. Longer follow-up is warranted to assess safety and efficacy. (Funded by the National Institutes of Health and others.)
This is absolutely incredible and what we have been wanting for a long time; the ability to fix genetic defects at source. This is a single gene disorder, autosomal recessive. And the treatment is N=1. That means it’s personalised.
Why is that so bloody exciting? Well there are about ten thousand known ‘rare genetic diseases’ and so few people suffer from each that big pharma won’t research treatment or cures. Because it’s never make money and also how do you do a clinical trial with so few patients? It’s too hard. So the holy grail for rare disease genetics is a platform like this, where you can use a standard method to fix ANYTHING. Whatever disease you have? You just identify the defect, and you edit it out.
A lot of these diseases are autosomal recessive and they’re a cause of awful disorders that kill babies and kids.
I not involved in this paper, but I have been watching this group and others like them and I am delighted that this little lad is doing well.

Several of the big pharma CEOs were at the White House a few weeks back. Lots of photo ops and internal articles after talking about investment in the future blah blah.
I wonder if he told them he wanted to do something and was told no and this is him spanking them into line

Former NFL Wide Receiver and lolcow Antonio Brown was apparently involved in some kind of fight while attending a Boxing event hosted by Adin Ross. Shots were fired and Antonio might have been arrested but not before getting cheered on by Adin and the crowd. Adin Ross was the one who did a livestream with Donald Trump and fake gave him a CyberTruck.
Yep definitely released after talking to the police

So Universal Music decided to milk another dead artists even more: Avicii
How? Well, by releasing a cheap compilation album with an "unreleased" track (which is NOT made by him, it's a remix by BUNT, allegedly). On top of that... selling rocks that costs $110! All this for "mental health" and a rock monument.
Even if it's just about a dead trust fund DJ, it's pretty tasteless.
