US women’s water polo team edge Hungary to reclaim world title

US Women win Water Polo title

The United States held off Hungary 8-7 on Friday to capture the women’s water polo title for the fifth time in the last six championships and eighth time overall.

Rachel Fattal scored three goals and goalkeeper Ashleigh Johnson made 10 saves to lead the Americans, who are three-time reigning Olympic champions.

The US bounced back from a quarter-final loss at last year’s world championships in Fukuoka. Rallying from an 8-5 deficit in the final quarter, Hungary came up just short of their first women’s world title since 2005.

Spain defeated Greece 10-9 for the bronze medal.

With the win, Fattal, Maggie Steffens and Maddie Musselman all became five-time world champions.

Jeffrey Epstein victims sue FBI, allege coverup

Jeffrey EpsteinA dozen victims of Jeffrey Epstein filed a lawsuit on Wednesday accusing the FBI of covering up its failure to investigate the late financier, enabling his sex trafficking to continue for more than 20 years.

The victims, using Jane Doe pseudonyms, said the FBI received credible tips as early as 1996 that Epstein trafficked young women and girls, yet failed to interview victims or share what it knew with federal and local law enforcement.
Victims said the FBI finally began a probe in 2006, but ended it two years later after Epstein pleaded guilty to a Florida prostitution charge, and kept ignoring tips until his July 2019 arrest. Epstein committed suicide a month later.
"As a direct and proximate cause of the FBI's negligence, plaintiffs would not have been continued to be sex trafficked, abused, raped, tortured and threatened," the complaint said.
"Jane Does 1-12 bring this lawsuit to get to the bottom -- once and for all -- of the FBI's role in Epstein's criminal sex trafficking ring," it added.
The U.S. Department of Justice did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Warning of a 'serious national security threat' ahead of White House meeting with lawmakers

Jake SullivanThe Republican chairman of the House Intelligence Committee warned of a "serious national security threat" that will be the subject of a meeting between President Joe Biden's top national security adviser and congressional leaders Thursday.

Rep. Mike Turner, R-Ohio, in an ominously worded statement Wednesday ahead of the meeting, asked Biden to "declassify all information relating to this threat so that Congress, the administration and our allies can openly discuss the actions necessary to respond to this threat.”

Turner, who did not disclose any further details, said his committee has made available information related to the threat to all members of Congress.

Jake Sullivan, White House national security adviser, would not elaborate on the nature of the threat during a briefing with reporters but confirmed he took the "highly unusual" step of personally reaching out to the "Gang of Eight" members of Congress − including Turner − to invite them to a briefing Thursday.

Two people killed after small private jet plane crash-lands on Florida highway

Two people killed in Fl plane crash

Two people have died after a small private jet plane attempted to make an emergency landing on Interstate 75 in south-west Florida on Friday afternoon, colliding with two vehicles and bringing traffic to a halt as a plume of black smoke rose into the air.

The crash landing happened near the Pine Ridge Road exit in Collier county, just north of where the interstate heads east toward Fort Lauderdale along what is known as Alligator Alley.

It occurred moments after the crashed jet’s pilots told an airport traffic controller that the plane “was not going to make the runway” after losing both engines, the Associated Press reported, citing audio the news outlet obtained.

Brianna Walker saw the wing of the plane drag the car in front of hers and slam into a wall.

“It’s seconds that separated us from the car in front of us,” she said. “The wing pulverized this one car.”
