THE FLYOVER,

Tuesday, September 17, 2024,

Good Morning! On this day in 1859, Joshua Abraham Norton, an immigrant living in San Francisco, declared himself “Norton I, Emperor of the United States.” Known as Emperor Norton, he later adopted the title “Protector of Mexico” in 1863 after Napoleon III’s invasion of Mexico.

A supermoon, Harvest Moon, and a partial lunar eclipse will be visible in the evening skies tonight, creating a celestial trifecta for stargazers.

TAKEOFF,

Man Charged in Trump Shooting Attempt,

Authorities formally charged Ryan Wesley Routh with federal gun crimes on Monday in connection with an alleged assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump on Sunday.

Appearing in a Florida courtroom, Routh was charged with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and possession of a firearm with an obliterated serial number. Routh has an extensive criminal background, including more than 100 criminal counts in North Carolina.

Routh is believed to have camped outside Trump’s Florida golf course with food and a rifle for nearly 12 hours, lying in wait.

The Secret Service became aware of Routh after an agent spotted what appeared to be a rifle poking out of a tree line during a perimeter sweep.

An arraignment for Routh is scheduled for Sept. 30.

TikTok Disputes U.S. Ban in Court,

TikTok appeared in a Washington D.C. appeals court on Monday to challenge a U.S. law that could lead to its ban unless sold by Chinese parent company ByteDance.

The company argued that the legislation, prompted by national security concerns over user data vulnerability to Chinese exploitation, would have a “staggering” impact on free speech for its 170 million U.S. users.

TikTok’s lawyers denied links to the Chinese government and questioned the law’s constitutionality, emphasizing it targets the app based on speculative future risks.

While the immediate hearing involved a panel of three judges, legal experts anticipate the case could extend for months and potentially reach the Supreme Court due to its implications for free speech and national security.

Supermoon Rises Tonight,

Tonight’s full Harvest Moon is a rare combination of a partial lunar eclipse and a supermoon and has the potential to create a stunning spectacle for observers worldwide.

The moon’s path has brought it closer to the Earth, making it appear bigger and brighter than normal.

Around 8:40 p.m. EST, it will enter the Earth’s shadow, resulting in a supermoon and partial lunar eclipse.

Numerous viewing options are available for those unable to view it outdoors.

POLITICS,

China released Chinese-American pastor David Lin on Sunday after nearly 20 years in prison for attempting to establish a Christian training center in Beijing.

Two retired New York City fire chiefs were indicted Monday for allegedly accepting $190,000 in bribes to fast-track inspections, marking the latest corruption case to hit New York City officials.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. acknowledged he is being investigated for “collecting a whale specimen 20 years ago,” claiming the probe is politically motivated due to his endorsement of former President Trump.

After a word from one of our sponsors Jennifer will be Narrating the last half of the news.

And Now, A word From one of Our Sponsors,

Before we go let me tell you about one of the books found on my Bookstore,

Go to https:// payhip.com/ Christian NonFiction eBookStore then scroll down and click on Interactive Romans Road King James Version

Long Ago, when the Roman Empire was at the height of its glory, a common saying was “All Roads Lead to Rome.” I want to tell you about a very special road — a road that existed then and still exists now. This road, now almost 2,000 years old, has never led to Rome. Yet, strangely enough, it is called the Romans Road.

This takes the reader to selected passages in the Book of Romans in the Bible to explain the plan of Salvation. This is the ideal way to share the gospel using your Kindle. The reader can also read the entire book of Romans un-interrupted.
