Well, Good Morning!
Let's take a look at what the day has in store for us.
So, let's dig in, shall we?
Here's What You Need To Know... FBI releases new footage of bomb-planting Jan. 6 suspect The FBI on Wednesday released a new video of the suspect who placed pipe bombs in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Washington, D.C. on the eve of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, with the hope of identifying the still unknown suspect.
The bombs, which police have said were viable explosives, were discovered during the riot and may have been intended to explode while blocks away, supporters of then-President Donald Trump attacked the Capitol. The mob had traveled to the Capitol that day in hopes of derailing the Electoral College vote tally and overturning Trump's electoral defeat.
The news comes as intel shows that extremists will attend a Capitol rally later this month. The rally is designed to demand "justice" for the hundreds of people who have been charged in connection with January's insurrection, according to three people familiar with intelligence gathered by federal officials.
"Exploitation of the dead:" three people arrested so far for stealing the identities of Surfside condo victims A trio of identity thieves wasted no time after the tragic collapse of the Surfside condo building that killed 98 people. Within days of the devastation, the criminals started claiming to be victims, seeking new credit cards, and making a minimum of $45,000 in purchases, according to authorities. One woman was recorded telling a bank representative "I was a victim of the towers that just collapsed… All my personal belongings were in there."
That woman was apparently pretending to be 46-year-old Ana Ortiz who, along with her husband and son, died that night. The imposter purchased Christian Louboutin shoes, a Versace bag, and spent $1,700 at Target, officials said. It wasn't until the night before her funeral that Ortiz's sister became aware of the scheme and contacted authorities. Apparently, Ortiz's iPad was getting strange notifications that clued her in.
"I was home writing the eulogy," she said. "I don't know why, but I looked down. I saw notifications from Wells Fargo. I saw emails with money transfers. I didn't even know she had a Wells Fargo account. It was crazy. These people are professional. Who would do something like this?"
The mayor of Miami-Dade county called the crime an "exploitation of the dead."
In a shocking turn of events, the Taliban doesn't make good on this promise After being scattered to the winds for four decades, hunted down relentlessly by U.S. and allied forces, the Taliban is back at the top in Afghanistan. Addressing the global concern that they would reimpose their reign of terror on the Afghan people, the Taliban promised they would uphold the rights of women and give them roles in their new government.
To no one's surprise, that's not what happened. All male, the new caretaker Cabinet is made up entirely of long-standing hard-line members of the militant group, including a U.S.-designated terrorist. You can read a short profile of each member here.
The interim government was announced shortly after the Taliban claimed victory over Panjshir, the last pocket of resistance in the country, held by the National Resistance Front. Although the Taliban said the region is "completely captured," resistance leaders have vowed to never surrender. The National Resistance Front says it still holds strategic positions. Two of its senior leaders died in the battle for the region's largest district, though the vice president of Afghanistan and the son of the original resistance leader still live.
