TAKEOFF.

Secret Service Shoots Armed Man.

Secret Service agents shot and wounded an “armed man” a block from the White House shortly after midnight Sunday while President Trump was away for the weekend.

The suspect, identified as 27-year-old Andrew Dawson of Indiana, drove from his home state to Washington D.C. on Saturday, according to a tip from local police who called him a “suicidal individual.”

Secret Service found Dawson near his parked vehicle, and an “armed confrontation” took place after he “brandished a firearm,” according to a Secret Service statement.

Dawson, who was also armed with a knife, was rushed to the hospital, and his condition is currently unknown.

Syria Battles Leave 1,000 Dead.

More than 1,000 people have been killed in Syria in the past few days in clashes between the newly installed government forces and loyalists of ousted President Bashar al-Assad.

The violence began Thursday near Jableh, a longtime stronghold of Assad’s Alawite community, when loyalists ambushed government forces, triggering retaliatory attacks on Alawite neighborhoods.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio condemned the killings, urging the interim Syrian government to protect civilians and hold the “radical Islamist terrorists, including foreign jihadis” accountable for the massacres.

States Push for Permanent Daylight Saving.

At least 20 U.S. states have passed legislation to permanently adopt Daylight Saving Time (DST), but federal law prevents them from making the switch without congressional approval.

Arizona and Hawaii are the only states that stay on standard time year-round.

Although “The Sunshine Protection Act” has been introduced multiple times in Congress since 2018 to allow permanent DST, it has yet to pass.

POLITICS.

House Republicans proposed a stopgap funding measure, aiming to avoid a government shutdown this Friday with a plan for funding through September. Democrats oppose the plan.

The Trump administration is demanding climate nonprofits that received funds as part of a $20 billion Biden-era initiative turn records over to the FBI and appear in federal court later this month.

Kamala Harris will decide whether to run for California governor by the end of the summer, according to a source close to her.

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