Two dead by woman driving truck onto soccer field--one victim was a child

Two people, including a child, were killed Saturday afternoon when a 34-year-old woman drove a truck onto a soccer field in Wichita, Kansas.

Authorities said emergency dispatchers began receiving calls around 3:25 p.m. Central time reporting that a vehicle had driven through a soccer game at Stryker Sports Complex. Police, firefighters, and emergency medical personnel responded to the scene, where two people were pronounced dead—a child and an adult.

“The vehicle involved in this incident remained at the scene and the driver of that vehicle is currently in our custody. There is no additional ongoing threat to the public from that driver,” said Wichita Police Captain Aaron Moses at a press conference. “Our officers along with law enforcement from the area, Wichita fire department, and Sedgwick County EMS responded to the scene,” he added.

Eleven other people were taken to area hospitals. Ten suffered traumatic injuries ranging from bruises to severe injuries, though authorities said none were believed to be life-threatening. The injured included two 5-year-olds, two 8-year-olds, and a 9-year-old girl. Authorities believe the driver had a child playing soccer elsewhere at the complex. “We believe that she had a child who was playing soccer here today, but not on that field,” Moses added. Moses said the woman was “cooperative” with investigators as they worked to determine a motive.

“We have a really good idea of what happened. What we’re working to do now is do the investigation to determine how it happened and why,” Moses said. “We know people want the answers to those questions. We also need to determine the answer to those questions.”

Bystanders pulled the woman from the truck. Two children were reportedly in the backseat.

Wichita police urged anyone with video from the incident to submit tips through its website. “We are seeking any video related to the tragic incident that occurred at the Stryker Sports Complex on October 17, 2026.” the police department said. “Even if you think it might be insignificant, please upload it at the link provided or scan the QR code.”

Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly said she was closely monitoring the situation and offered condolences to the victims and their families. “I am very grateful to the first responders on the scene today,” she added.

Obama stepped on the old proverbial rake

Behold, the sheer, unadulterated tragedy of former President Barack Obama discovering that the federal government can be used for political targeting. One can only imagine the sheer emotional toll it takes to clutch one's pearls this hard.

Former divisive President Barack Obama is lashing out against President Donald Trump for the decision to criminally investigate Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar over her immigration status.

"It is a basic principle of American democracy that the government can’t selectively target individuals simply because of their political beliefs or what they say," Obama wailed into the digital ether, completely forgetting that his own administration treated political weaponization like an intramural sport.

After all, why dwell on minor historical footnotes like the IRS aggressively auditing conservative non-profits, or the totally organic creation of the Russia collusion hoax and the Steele Dossier? Those were just whimsical little pranks, unlike today's horrors.

“The fact that any president, or any administration, is willing to engage in such transparent efforts to intimidate someone should outrage all Americans,” Obama continued, apparently having checked his own reflection in the mirror and found it entirely invisible.

Naturally, contemporary Democrats are simply trying to save everyone the trouble by openly warning young conservatives that working for the opposition might ruin their lives with legal threats. But do not worry, because the commentariat has already assured us that this is completely different.

Feds Discover Ilhan Omar’s Immigration File Does Not Match Her Public Biography After Reading Sister’s Texts

Ilhan Omar when she isn't angry

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) had her D.C. home raided this week as part of an ongoing immigration fraud investigation. The rumors have circulated for years. The Justice Department has now decided to treat them as something other than background noise. Federal agents searched her home and seized her phone, computer, and passport. Omar’s personal life contains a series of dates and relationships that refuse to line up in the same order twice.

She has misfiled campaign finance reports and her taxes. Staff members may have adjusted her date of birth in 2018 so the naturalization timeline would remain internally consistent. The probe began under President Joe Biden, which removes the usual option of labeling the entire matter a coordinated political attack. A significant development arrived through text messages recovered from the phone of Omar’s sister, Sahra Noor, which officials seized earlier this year. 

The New York Times reported:

Federal investigators have been reviewing family text messages as they aim to build a case implicating Representative Ilhan Omar, a Minnesota Democrat, of conspiring to commit immigration fraud, three [anonymous] people familiar with the matter said this week.

The messages were obtained from a phone that officials seized earlier this year from one of Ms. Omar’s sisters, Sahra Noor, a health care executive and author, according to the three people.

The messages contained information that investigators had used to get a federal judge to authorize homeland security agents to search Ms. Omar’s Washington-area residence on Monday, the three [anonymous] people said. Agents spent hours searching the home of the congresswoman and were seen walking away with several boxes of seized items.

The people familiar with the seizure of Ms. Noor’s phone spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss an open criminal investigation that is before a federal grand jury in Minnesota. Federal officials have issued subpoenas in recent days to Ms. Noor and several other people in Ms. Omar’s orbit.

The investigation seeks to determine whether Ms. Omar and her relatives lied or omitted crucial information in immigration paperwork they filed since moving to the United States in the 1990s. They were admitted as refugees after fleeing Somalia’s civil war.

Markwayne Mullin, the homeland security secretary, suggested last month that the investigation could ultimately result in Ms. Omar’s deportation.

The Justice Department on Friday did not immediately respond to a request for comment about Ms. Noor’s phone. It was not clear when or where her phone was seized.

Ms. Noor, who recently published a memoir about her upbringing and the family’s journey to the United States, did not respond this week to several requests for comment. In recent years she has split her time between the United States and Kenya, and she spoke at events in the Minneapolis area this month to promote her book.

A Democrat judge approved the warrant. Judges generally prefer not to attach their signatures to searches of sitting members of Congress unless the supporting material is difficult to ignore. Federal agents also sorted through Omar’s trash in search of DNA evidence, which indicates the inquiry has moved past paperwork discrepancies into questions of biological relatedness.

Ilhan Omar demands her passport be released for some reason, as computers seized in home search by authorities

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) wants federal authorities to return the passport, computers, cellphone, and other personal belongings seized from her home during a criminal investigation. Her attorneys are also demanding recordings of the search, apparently hoping to establish that the government’s investigation is as improper as they insist it is.

On Monday, agents from the Department of Homeland Security searched Omar’s residence after obtaining a warrant approved by a federal judge. According to The Wall Street Journal, agents seized several items, including her cellphone, notebooks, personal computers, and passport.

Omar’s legal team responded Friday with a letter to the Justice Department demanding the immediate return of the property and declaring that the investigation has no legitimate foundation.

“There is no legitimate basis for any suggestion that she has violated any law concerning her citizenship status,” her attorneys wrote.

They then accused the administration of conducting a politically motivated campaign against one of President Donald Trump’s most prominent congressional critics.

“This vindictive, retributive, and politically motivated criminal investigation into one of the President’s chief congressional critics violates Representative Omar’s constitutional rights and threatens the separation of powers,” they added.

Her lawyers also objected to the timing of the search, arguing that investigators deliberately acted during the final weeks before the midterm elections, when voters will decide whether Omar deserves another term in Congress. Justice Department practice has traditionally discouraged overt investigative steps involving political candidates during the roughly 60 days before an election, a guideline Omar’s attorneys contend the department violated.

In other words, Omar’s legal team would prefer that investigators exercise restraint during election season, particularly when their investigation happens to involve Omar.

The Justice Department, meanwhile, offered a less dramatic assessment of its conduct.

“Our attorneys and law enforcement partners complied with all court orders and legal obligations, as they always do,” department spokesperson Emily Covington told ABC News.

Omar’s attorneys also requested copies of any audio and video recordings made inside her home during the search. Whether those recordings will be released remains unclear.

The precise scope of the investigation has not been made public. However, The Daily Wire outlined five possible areas of criminal scrutiny on Wednesday, including questions involving immigration status, citizenship, financial disclosures, and potential conflicts of interest.

One possibility concerns whether Omar’s father committed immigration fraud while seeking refugee status, an allegation that could raise additional questions about her own citizenship, depending on the facts and applicable law. Another involves questions about when her father became a citizen and whether Omar was under 18 at the time.

Neither possibility has been established as a finding of wrongdoing, and the investigation’s actual focus remains unknown.

Other questions involve Omar’s husband, Tim Mynett, and allegations that he used his wife’s congressional position to benefit his firm’s African clients through legislation. Questions have also been raised about the couple’s business interests and financial disclosures.

The couple’s reported finances have attracted attention in their own right. A 2025 filing valued their assets at as much as $30 million, largely attributable to Mynett’s business interests. An amended filing earlier this year, however, reported a net worth of approximately $18,000 to $95,000 and listed Mynett’s businesses as having no value after liabilities.

Those sharply different figures raise questions that may warrant explanation. They do not, by themselves, establish criminal conduct.

Omar, for her part, has framed the investigation as another chapter in her long-running battle with Trump and his administration.

On Thursday, she thanked supporters and constituents who have continued to stand by her.

“Thank you to everyone who stood with me over the years,” she said. “It’s been a scary journey but I have always been grounded in my work and ability to provide exemplary service to my constituents. Trump and his administration have been after me since I arrived in Congress. I have always stood up to him and that will never change. The pedophile protector will never silence me.”

The Justice Department did not immediately respond to The Daily Wire’s request for comment.

For now, Omar wants her belongings back, her attorneys want the search recordings, and the congresswoman insists the investigation is politically motivated. Federal authorities, meanwhile, have yet to publicly explain what they are investigating or what evidence prompted the search.

That leaves a straightforward question hanging over the controversy: What, exactly, are investigators looking for, and what will the evidence ultimately show?

Trump’s New Press Secretary Lasted Days Before Her Credentials Became the Story

The White House press secretary’s job is to defend the president, handle hostile questions from the press, and explain the administration’s policies without accidentally creating a political firestorm. Katie Zacharia managed to run into trouble with all three before she had much time to learn where the briefing room was.

As of October 17, 2026, Zacharia’s abrupt departure appears to have resulted from a spectacularly ill-timed combination of questionable professional credentials, a disastrous debut before reporters, and President Trump’s apparent loss of confidence in his newest spokesperson.

The White House press operation had barely gotten started before the story became less about the administration’s agenda and more about whether its press secretary had been describing herself with a professional title she had never quite legally earned.

To be clear, Zacharia has not been convicted of a crime, and the allegations against her remain allegations. Trump has denied firing her, although he reportedly urged her to reconsider the position before the White House confirmed her departure. Still, the episode has provided a useful demonstration of how quickly a political appointment can turn into a public-relations emergency.

The Lawyer Who Never Passed the Bar

The most damaging controversy concerned Zacharia’s repeated descriptions of herself as a lawyer and attorney.

Zacharia graduated from Pepperdine University’s law school in 2011. She subsequently took the California bar exam, failed, and never retook it, according to her own statements. That means she isn't a licensed attorney, although she played one at the lecturn. 

Public-record searches by news organizations reportedly found no evidence that she was licensed to practice law in any U.S. state or Washington, D.C. Nevertheless, she had repeatedly described herself as a lawyer or attorney. Trump actually used the title when announcing her appointment.

There is, of course, a difference between graduating from law school and being admitted to practice law. One earns a degree. The other requires satisfying the applicable licensing requirements. Apparently, the distinction became considerably more important once Zacharia was expected to explain things to the national press.

Zacharia defended herself by saying she had received advice that she could describe herself as a lawyer because she possessed a law degree and had international legal experience. She also said she worked on international transactions while employed by a law firm in Beijing. However, that is pure bull pucks.

That explanation did little to extinguish the controversy. CNN, the media outlet that only seems to do a deep dive when it's against someone one the right, reportedly identified at least 15 social media posts in which she referred to herself as an attorney.

On October 14, the watchdog organization Campaign for Accountability filed a complaint asking the California State Bar to investigate whether Zacharia had unlawfully represented herself as qualified to practice law.

The complaint does not establish that she broke the law, and it is not a criminal conviction. But it does mean that a press secretary who was supposed to defend the administration suddenly found herself needing a defense of her own professional biography.

A Press Briefing That Briefly Became a Career-Ending Event

If the credentials controversy was the first problem, Zacharia’s debut behind the White House podium did little to improve matters. And speaking of matters, it turned out to be a clusterfrack debut. 

Her first briefing on October 13 lasted about 14 minutes. She answered questions from only three reporters and appeared nervous and hesitant while reading prepared remarks. At one point, she mistakenly referred to her husband as "my president" before correcting herself.

The White House press secretary is expected to handle aggressive questioning, defend presidential policies, and respond to unexpected developments without making the administration wish someone else had been sent into the room.

Zacharia’s performance reportedly failed to inspire confidence. According to Axios, a White House official said Trump was unimpressed.

There was, however, a mitigating circumstance. Zacharia said she had been given less than eight hours on the job before receiving her briefing book that morning.

That is hardly an ideal preparation schedule for one of the most demanding communications positions in Washington. Even so, the White House had apparently discovered that appointing someone to a high-profile job and preparing that person to perform it are two separate administrative functions.

The briefing was short. The fallout was considerably longer.

Television Interviews Made Matters Worse

After questions about her credentials intensified, Zacharia turned to conservative media outlets to explain herself.

During an interview with Sean Hannity, she acknowledged that she had failed the California bar exam and never retaken it. She explained that she had been preparing to move to China with her husband (not the President) and considered the result inconsequential at the time.

Hannity pressed her on why she had not simply explained that she attended law school, took the bar exam, and failed, rather than relying on distinctions between the words lawyer and attorney.

It was a reasonable question, and one that highlighted the problem facing Zacharia. The more she explained her terminology, the more attention the terminology received.

A press secretary’s first responsibility is to keep the spotlight on the president’s agenda. Zacharia’s interviews instead encouraged the press to examine her résumé, her public statements, and the precise meaning of the titles she had used.

The administration had hired a spokesperson. It had inadvertently acquired another story for the spokesperson to explain.

Trump Was Reportedly Blindsided

According to Axios, Trump was blindsided when he learned that Zacharia was not licensed to practice law in the United States, despite having announced her appointment by describing her as an attorney.

Reports also indicated that he was dissatisfied with her initial briefing and her subsequent explanations.

By October 16, the president was publicly suggesting that she reconsider the position.

“Honestly, if I were you, I’d reconsider.”

Trump also defended Zacharia against media criticism and said he wanted her to have a good life. He denied firing her, even as reports indicated that she was leaving the position.

That distinction may matter to the official account of her departure, but it does little to change the political reality. When a president publicly suggests that his press secretary should reconsider her job after only a few days, the appointment is unlikely to be enjoying a period of renewed confidence. 

Three Problems, One Very Short Tenure

Zacharia’s departure appears to have been driven by three overlapping failures.

First, the credentials controversy. Her repeated use of the titles lawyer and attorney became a serious credibility problem after she acknowledged failing the bar exam and never retaking it. The resulting complaint remains an allegation, not a proven finding of misconduct. She was actually sounding like Abdul El Sayed with his claim of being a physician.

Second, the disastrous debut. Her first briefing raised questions about her readiness to serve as the administration’s principal spokesperson. The limited preparation time she described provides relevant context, but it did not prevent the performance from becoming another source of criticism.

Third, the loss of presidential confidence. Trump reportedly disliked her performance and was unhappy about the controversy surrounding her background. Once the president himself became dissatisfied, her prospects of surviving the episode grew considerably dimmer.

There were also reports that her appointment had been rushed and that she lacked strong institutional support inside the White House. Those factors may have contributed to the outcome. The available reporting does not establish that Zacharia alone was responsible for every failure surrounding her brief tenure.

The Bottom Line

Katie Zacharia’s brief time as White House press secretary appears to have collapsed under the weight of two problems that proved difficult to separate: questions about her professional credentials and doubts about her ability to handle the job.

Her repeated descriptions of herself as a lawyer despite never passing a U.S. bar exam became a damaging distraction. Her first briefing did little to reassure the administration, and her subsequent media appearances failed to settle the controversy.

As detailed above, there is no established finding that she committed a crime, and the complaint filed against her has not been shown to have resulted in a substantiated finding of misconduct. Trump has also denied firing her, despite reports that he urged her to reconsider the position. With all that said, I suspect the President did, indeed, fire her or make it so clear that she needed to go that she had no choice.

What is clear is that the White House press secretary’s office is not an especially forgiving place to discover that a résumé, a professional title, and a presidential announcement can become three separate problems.

Zacharia’s tenure was supposed to help the administration communicate its message. Instead, it left the administration explaining why its own spokesperson had become the message.

Killer mother sentenced to only 10 years for murdering her infant

Former University of Kentucky cheerleader Laken Snelling was sentenced to a mere 10 years in prison on Friday after pleading guilty to first-degree manslaughter for killing her newborn son. 

Lexington police found the infant cold to the touch and wrapped in a trash bag inside her closet after roommates reported loud noises.

The baby was born alive. The Kentucky Medical Examiner's Office determined the cause of death was asphyxiation. When Judge Diane Minnifield asked Snelling how she ended the infant's life, she replied, "I deprived him of oxygen." [Translation: she likely put her hands around his neck and choked him to death.]

Snelling, a senior at the time of the incident, told the court, "I was under a lot of emotional stress and my baby came unexpectedly. And instead of helping him, I ended his life and afterward I cleaned up and didn’t tell anyone."

It sounds as if she planned to dump him into the trash, hoping he, a human being, would be mistaken for garbage.

She also pleaded guilty to abuse of a corpse, tampering with physical evidence, and concealing the birth of an infant. 

Investigators learned she deleted photos of her labor from her phone along with other evidence of the pregnancy. She claimed she remained awake for 30 minutes after the birth, then passed out on top of the baby. When she woke, she saw the infant "turning blue and purple."

Yeah, and if you believe that, you might believe the Brooklyn Bridge is a tunnel.

A living child outside the womb is not a medical complication or an emotional inconvenience. The infant required immediate care. Snelling provided a trash bag instead. The other charges reflect the deliberate effort to hide what happened after the fact. 

Ten years is the sentence that followed the guilty plea and this writer does not feel that it's long enough.

Zohran Mamdani's father said Hitler was inspired by Abraham Lincoln

NEW YORK – In yet another shocking discovery that completely baffles anyone who thinks American history textbooks should contain facts rather than anti-capitalist fan fiction, resurfaced footage reveals that Mahmoud Mamdani, the father of New York City's socialist mayor, Zohran Mamdani, once taught an audience that Adolf Hitler took his notes directly from Abraham Lincoln.

The elder Mamdani, a longtime Ivy League academic who surely bills his revolutionary lectures on a taxpayer-funded credit card, explained during a 2022 panel discussion hosted by the Asia Society that America is essentially the grand-daddy of global mischief.

“With the Civil War, Abraham Lincoln generalized the solution of reservations, they herded American Indians into separate territories,” Mamdani, Columbia’s Herbert Lehman professor of government, said. “For the Nazis, this was the inspiration – Hitler realized two things: one, that genocide is doable. It is possible to do genocide, that’s what Hitler realized. Second thing Hitler realized, is that you don’t have to have a common citizenship.”

Naturally, local socialists are thrilled to learn that their favorite historical villain was apparently inspired by the guy on the five-dollar bill.

According to a cozy profile by the New York Times, the younger Mamdani happily credits his parents for a "privileged upbringing" defined by frequent dinner table chats about how much they despise Western civilization. That elite, trust-fund-adjacent upbringing clearly paid off, as the proud democratic socialist has spent his career fighting bravely for the working class from the comfort of trendy coffee shops.

During the same 2022 academic-circle-jerk, the senior Mamdani doubled down on his unique creative writing exercise by claiming that the racist and antisemitic Nuremberg Laws of Nazi Germany “were patterned after American laws.” He also bravely informed the room that Allied forces during World War II had the exact same malicious game plan as the Third Reich.

“The Nazi political project was shared by the Allies, and that political project was to turn Germany into a ‘pure’ nation. A ‘pure’ nation rid of its minorities,” Mamdani said at the Asia Society event. “When the Allies defeated the Nazis and went into Eastern Europe, they began to create ‘pure’ nations. To ethnically cleanse Eastern Europe of Germans – move them back into Germany. One crime doesn’t wipe out another.”

Critics digging into the family archive after the younger Mamdani's primary political upset were shocked to find that the apple does not fall far from the tree of campus radicalism. Footage from a 2021 Young Democratic Socialists of America conference features the candidate sternly instructing true believers never to compromise on mundane goals like “seizing the means of production.”

Meanwhile, in his literary classic, “Good Muslim, Bad Muslim: America, the Cold War, and the Roots of Terror,” the senior Mamdani brilliantly rebrands suicide bombers, arguing that the term is a total misnomer because they are fundamentally identical to any other “soldier[s] whose objective is to kill.”

At press time, the Mamdani family was busy drafting an academic paper proving that George Washington invented traffic jams entirely out of spite.

Bibi responds to false claims by former POTUS Bozo about Israel stealing Palestinian land

JERUSALEM — In a stunning development that shocked absolutely no one, local man Barack Obama took a brief pause from his busy schedule of giving multimillion-dollar lectures to fly to Belfast and explain to the Middle East how it has been doing history wrong for the past four millennia.

Speaking to journalist Susan McKay, the former American president bravely solved the complex geopolitical puzzle of the Levant by reducing it to a real estate dispute. According to Obama, the primary error of the Jewish state was failing to realize that living in your ancestral homeland is actually just a bad vibe for the neighbors.

"The fact is that the Jewish people, for millennia, were oppressed, discriminated against, killed," Obama said, laying the groundwork for a pivot. "Europe was responsible for much of it. They understandably sought a refuge."

However, Obama noted that once the refugees actually showed up, set down roots, and decided not to be exterminated, the local populations understandably responded by saying, "This is injustice, and I want my land back." He further warned that if Israel’s attitude is simply ensuring its own survival instead of surrendering to its neighbors, it has unfortunately ceded moral ground to people who chant "Death to America."

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wasted no time addressing the former president's geographical critique, taking to X/Twitter to remind the world where things actually stand.

"The Jewish people are not foreign occupiers in the land of our forefathers," Netanyahu said. "Our history is not a colonial enterprise. Our land is not stolen land. This is our homeland."

Netanyahu characterized the Belfast remarks as a regrettable statement, gently pointing out the fundamental difference between ancient indigenous populations and European expansionism.

AI generated and very believable

"We're not the Dutch in Indonesia... the Belgians in the Congo, we're Jews in Judea," he noted, presumably waiting for someone to check a map of the Roman Empire.

Addressing the actual mechanics of peace, Netanyahu pointed out a minor speed-bump in the negotiation process: the people currently screaming "Death to Israel" and "Death to America."

"Regarding the path to a peace agreement, Netanyahu said that the obstacle to peace is not Israel, but rather the enemies in the region shared by Israel and the United States," officials confirmed, highlighting an ongoing refusal by hostile regimes to recognize a Jewish state inside any boundary whatsoever.

"We are the 'Little Satan,' you are the 'Great Satan,'" Netanyahu added, summarizing the warm diplomatic overtures frequently received from Tehran while noting that both nations remain tasked with defending a common civilization.

"A peace built on illusions will crash against the rocks of Middle Eastern reality," Netanyahu concluded. "Israel will not gamble with its survival to accommodate those who refuse to accept the facts of history, to accept our right to exist, or who wish to appease terror."

"We certainly do not; we never will."

Meanwhile, Obama urged the citizens of Israel to completely rethink their future strategy by abandoning walls and finding a more moral way to defend themselves, such as politely asking hostile actors to please stop trying to wipe them out.
