2:41Spain defeating Argentina 1-0 yesterday in a dramatic extra-time victory to win the World Cup. The final played at MetLife Stadium in the Meadowlands in New Jersey, just outside of New York City. The game remaining scoreless through regulation despite Spain taking 15 shots, while Argentina failed to record a single attempt on goal. Argentina losing one of its top players in the 93rd minute, the resulting red card leaving the team a man down for all of extra time. Argentina's goalkeeper, Emiliano Martinez, almost single-handedly keeping his team in the game, making a World Cup final record, 10 saves in regulation, playing with a broken finger no less.

3:24Early in the second half of overtime, Spain finally breaking through. Left winger Nico Williams heading the ball backward from near the goal line, sending it into the box to forward Ferran Torres, who charged in and fired the game winner into the top of the net. Argentina not recording its first shot of the game until the 116th minute, then playing with intense urgency, launching attack after attack but never finding the net. The victory gives Spain its second men's World Cup title ever, while ending 39-year-old Lionel Messi's bid to win consecutive championships. Spain also becoming the first country to hold the men's and women's World Cup titles at the same time.

4:06President Trump among the many high-profile individuals in attendance to watch the conclusion of a successful North American World Cup. Social media influencers Andrew and Tristan Tate arrested Saturday in Miami on a British extradition request tied to dozens of rape, trafficking, and other charges. U.S. Marshals taking the dual American-British citizens into custody on a sealed warrant, according to the AP. TMZ publishing videos showing agents handcuffing the brothers outside a convention center in downtown Miami, where Andrew Tate had been scheduled to co-host a bare-knuckle boxing event. The brothers already facing a combined 21 charges in Britain involving three alleged victims, including rape, human trafficking, assault, and controlling prostitution for financial gain.

4:57Yesterday, Assistant Chief Constable Karina Thomas announcing the scope of the expanded case. Following the initial charges being authorized, we have continued to investigate further offenses reported to both Bedfordshire Police and Hertfordshire Constabulary. As a result, 38 new charges in total have now been authorized against Andrew and Tristan Tate, bringing the total number of charges faced to 59. The charges relate to seven victims spanning a period from 2010 to 2017. The Crown Prosecution Service charging Andrew with seven additional counts of rape, three counts of arranging or facilitating trafficking for sexual exploitation, three counts of assault causing bodily harm, and 19 charges involving indecent images of a child and extreme pornography.

5:46Tristan now facing one additional count of sexual assault, two counts of rape, and three counts of arranging or facilitating trafficking for sexual exploitation. The brothers gaining millions of followers on social media by promoting and aggressively misogynistic vision of masculinity. The British case only won part of the brothers' years-long legal battle. The Tates also facing criminal proceedings in Romania since their arrest there in December 2022. Romanian prosecutors accusing the brothers of using the so-called lover-boy method, allegedly luring women with promises of romantic relationships before coercing them into producing pornographic content.

6:27Journalist Matt Shea, who investigated the Tate brothers in documentaries for the BBC, explaining on the network why the Miami arrests come as a surprise. Well, it's surprising because we have to remember, right, that throughout the litany of accusations against the Tate brothers, perhaps the biggest ongoing right now is the Romanian investigation into them. So there are two indictments in Romania. There's one from 2023, which alleges both Andrew and Tristan Tate formed an organized criminal group and did human trafficking and were guilty of rape as well. And a newer investigation involving additional allegations, including trafficking of a minor, sex with a minor, money laundering, witness tampering, and the list goes on.

7:13And the agreement that the UK had with the Romanian authorities was that they would wait for that investigation to complete and any sentencing to complete before the Tates were then extradited to the UK from Romania. So this has been a bit of a shock because it's changed that. And presumably that's because of this new evidence. A Romanian court approving Britain's original extradition request in March 2024, but postponing the brothers' transfer until the criminal proceedings against them in Romania were completed, according to Reuters. Romanian authorities lifting the brothers' travel restrictions in February 2025, allowing them to return to Florida while the cases in Romania remained unresolved.

7:59The brothers denying all allegations against them, their attorney Joseph McBride accusing British officials of trying to bypass the Romanian proceedings and arguing America should reject the extradition request. Andrew and Tristan Tate set to appear in federal court in Miami sometime this week, according to the Wall Street Journal. Two U.S. Forest Service employees safely released after allegedly being kidnapped, zip-tied, and held at gunpoint for nearly 15 hours in a remote part of Northern California in a terrifying and bizarre incident. Authorities identifying the suspects as 49-year-old Joseph Charles Henrickson and his 23-year-old son, Phoenix Henrickson.

8:43The crisis beginning around 10.55 a.m. Thursday. Two federal employees were reportedly performing routine seasonal fieldwork near Gumboot Lake in the Shasta Trinity National Forest in California. Authorities say Joseph Henriksen confronted the workers with a gun, forcing them into a privately owned trailer deep inside the forest. It is unclear to whom the trailer belongs. The trailer sits roughly 6 ,000 feet above sea level in heavily wooded, mountainous terrain, accessible only by a single-lane road, according to the New York Times. Federal prosecutors say Henriksen used one of the victim's phones to contact authorities, warning that he had live ammunition.

9:25ABC 10 obtaining police scanner audio capturing the demand that helped set negotiations in motion. I have two biologists in my custody right now. I've tried to make contact with the FBI through the law enforcement agent that is in the ranger station here in Shasta. I'm requesting FBI investigators to speak to so that I can release these hostages. Siskiyou County Sheriff Jeremiah LaRue laying out the hours-long effort to establish contact and bring the workers home safely. We sent deputies and our special response team to the location around noon. at about 1.03 p.m. using our drones we were able to identify a trailer where Mr.

10:20Hendrickson was inside and we attempted every effort to begin communicating with him to resolve the potential conflict and it wasn't until about four o 'clock about 4 20 that we were able to begin negotiations with Mr. Hendrickson. At about 1.50 a.m., the survivors, the hostages, the two employees of the Forest Service were released. Authorities say drone footage showed the Elder Hendrickson carrying an AR-15-style rifle and repeatedly moving in and out of the trailer. Campers and other visitors reportedly evacuated from the surrounding area as hundreds of officers converged on the isolated campground.

11:05The response drawing local, state, and federal agencies, including tactical teams, hostage negotiators, bomb technicians, and members of the FBI's hostage rescue team, flown in from Quantico, Virginia. Acting FBI Sacramento Special Agent in Charge, Brian Tosh, at a Friday press conference, praising the coordinated response and its rare, peaceful conclusion. At approximately 2.30 a.m., Joseph Heinrichsen and his son, Phoenix Heinrichsen, surrendered. Joseph has been arrested on federal kidnapping charges. At the time, he had an AR-15 and knives and claimed to have grenades. Crisis situations like this don't often result in everyone leaving the scene safely.

11:48We are very proud of the work everyone did today. Both Forest Service employees evaluated after their release and allowed to return home with authorities reporting no serious injuries. Federal prosecutors charging both Henriksons on Friday with kidnapping federal employees. As a possible motive, Shasta County Sheriff Michael Johnson telling the New York Times the elder Henriksen had spent years expressing intense grievances against the federal government. Sheriff Johnson not providing more information about Henriksen's complaint, but saying the father and son specifically targeted the workers because of their connection to the federal government.

12:26If convicted, each man faces a maximum sentence of life in prison and a fine of up to$250 ,000.

14:16Several American service members killed in the Middle East over the weekend as fighting between the U.S. and Iran intensifies once again. CENTCOM announcing yesterday that one service member died in northern Iraq while troops were attempting to destroy unexploded material from an Iranian attack drone. The death comes one day after an Iranian missile and drone attack on American and allied forces in Jordan, with CENTCOM initially announcing two U.S. troops were killed and four others evacuated from the area for medical treatment. Those four have since been released from the hospital, while additional troops treated for less serious injuries have since returned to duty.

14:56Another service member remaining unaccounted for. According to CENTCOM yesterday, search teams did recover unidentified remains near the site in Jordan yesterday, with an examination underway to determine whether they belong to the missing American. President Trump talking with News Nation yesterday, describing the deaths as, quote, a very sad thing and saying the troops died serving their country. The latest confirmed deaths bring the American military toll since the war began to 17. If the remains are positively identified, that would make 18 with more than 400 troops injured. Former Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband officially charged with a hit-and-run after allegedly crashing into a parked car and leaving the scene in Napa Valley, California.

15:43Napa County prosecutors charging 86-year-old Paul Pelosi on Friday over the July 3 collision in Yontville. According to the Napa County Sheriff's Office, Pelosi, in his brown convertible, struck a legally parked unoccupied vehicle. He briefly stopped, then drove away without providing the information required under California law. No one was injured, and authorities say alcohol was not involved. A California Highway Patrol officer finding Mr. Pelosi about a quarter mile from the scene after he allegedly continued driving until his car stopped working. Mr. Pelosi facing one misdemeanor count of hit and run involving property damage, carrying up to six months in county jail, a$1 ,000 fine or both, according to the AP, along with a separate charge for allegedly making an unlawful turn.

16:32A Pelosi family spokesperson previously saying he personally apologized to the vehicle's owner and promised to cover the damage, which shouldn't be hard since his net worth is approximately$275 million per NewsNation. Mr. Pelosi set to appear in court on August 14th. Representative Pelosi approached by a Fox News reporter on Friday declining to address the case. How is Paul doing since the accident? The accident that happened? The reports were saying it was a hit and run. How's he doing? And do you think he'll avoid jail time? That's enough. This is not Mr. Pelosi's first driving-related criminal case in Napa County.

17:12In 2022, Mr. Pelosi pleading guilty to a DUI stemming from another crash, receiving a five-day jail sentence and three years of probation. Mr. Pelosi's driving record, a source of concern among those who know the Pelosi's, according to the New York Times, court records show he has had at least eight driving violations in the past 15 years, including driving down a one-way street, speeding, and running red lights.
