Apparently, Ukrainian drones pushed through and started a chain reaction.

Explosions reportedly continued for hours, and authorities evacuated nearby settlements. Initial reports indicate that the site, previously protected by one of Russia’s densest air defense networks, suffered catastrophic damage.

Bill Maher has come in for tons of criticism since he opted to have dinner with Donald Trump, but none of it was as biting as a recent takedown by "Seinfeld" creator Larry David.

In an essay for the New York Times called "My Dinner With Adolf," David took Maher to task for attempting to soften the image of a fascist strongman. While David never mentions the "Real Time" host by name, the timing of the piece and its main character's need to hear out all sides past the point of ludicrousness make the target clear.

David's fictional meeting with Adolf Hitler echoes many of the points that Maher has made in the days since he dined with Trump. Maher, a crochety liberal-leaning comic who has grown more crochety and less liberal as societal norms have passed him by, marvelled at the fact that he could make the commander-in-chief laugh.

Summary

Teresa Borrenpohl filed a $5 million lawsuit after private security dragged her from a February Republican town hall in Post Falls, Idaho.

Video shows unidentified men, later tied to LEAR Asset Management, forcibly removing her after she loudly questioned officials.

The city revoked LEAR’s license, citing public safety risks. Coeur D’Alene’s city attorney charged six men with battery, false imprisonment, and violations of security conduct.

Borrenpohl also named Sheriff Bob Norris in her tort claim, alleging fear of kidnapping and constitutional rights violations. National coverage has spotlighted civil liberties concerns.
