Tuesday September 1, 2026 Officials Played Down Risks in Ohio Train Disaster

Today's Headlines: This weekend was a mixed bag of news so let's start with good news. Olivia Rodrigo raised $10 million at her Daisy Chain Fields festival for women's charities including Planned Parenthood and the Center for Reproductive Rights, then Melinda French Gates walked onstage and doubled it to $20 million. MapQuest made a surprise comeback to number two in the App Store as a result of Google Maps changing Lake Ontario to Lake America in compliance with US government sources. And back to regularly scheduled craziness, Trump threatened to report Kristen Welker to the FCC for covering his declining approval ratings, because that's how the First Amendment works. Trump is also skipping the 9/11 memorial because he wanted to give a speech and no one has given a speech there since 2012, making him the only living president not attending, and historic Japanese cherry trees gifted in 1912 were quietly bulldozed before official approval to make room for a DC golf course expansion. Sony and Warner Music sued Anthropic Friday night for what they called "one of the largest and most blatant ongoing thefts of intellectual property in history," alleging Claude was trained on tens of thousands of copyrighted musical compositions — legal experts say this is a landmark AI copyright case. A federal judge ruled that AI-generated child sexual abuse material is legal to possess privately as long as it doesn't depict a real person, and the FBI quietly dropped its hiring ban on people who have engaged in theft, prostitution, and animal cruelty because Kash Patel drove out enough qualified agents that standards had to go somewhere. IV saline bags were recalled for fiberglass contamination across 14 states, mangoes at select Walmarts were recalled for salmonella, and over 800 people were killed in catastrophic Nepal-Tibet floods with 90 Americans among the 2,500 still missing — the US sent $500,000 in aid, which is what a mid-size fundraiser raises in a weekend. And finally, Milo Yiannopoulos was deported back to the UK for an expired visa, which is the only functional thing ICE has done all year.

Moscow Police repeatedly warned that the flood of online sleuthing surrounding the University of Idaho murders was creating real problems for the investigation. As speculation exploded across Reddit, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube and other platforms, amateur investigators began naming supposed suspects, dissecting victims' relationships, scrutinizing friends and acquaintances, and circulating theories that often had little or no evidentiary foundation. Police stressed that rumors, misinformation and unsupported accusations could damage innocent people, overwhelm investigators with useless tips and make it harder to separate legitimate leads from internet noise. They also urged the public to stop contacting people connected to the case directly and to send credible information through official tip lines instead of trying to conduct their own parallel investigation.The department's frustration grew as online speculation increasingly targeted people whom investigators had already looked at and, in some cases, publicly ruled out. Moscow Police made clear that the public did not have access to the full body of evidence and therefore could not reliably reconstruct the case from scattered videos, social-media posts, photographs or partial timelines. Officials also warned that harassment and false accusations could have lasting consequences for people who were simply witnesses, friends, former partners or members of the community. Their message was essentially that crowdsourced attention could be useful when it produced genuine evidence, but internet vigilantism was something else entirely. In the end, Moscow Police treated the sleuth culture surrounding the murders as both a distraction and a potential threat to the integrity of the investigation, repeatedly asking people to let detectives follow the evidence rather than allowing rumor to dictate who should be considered suspicious.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

(The Center Square) – Following a U.S. Supreme Court decision Monday, Illinois elected officials are urging residents to send any mail-in ballots to be cast in the midterms ahead of election day. The highest court temporarily allowed the Trump administration to maintain an executive order placing restrictions on mail-in voting across the country, requiring the U.S. Postal Service to cross reference Homeland Security lists of legal citizen eligible voters. Ed Yohnka, spokesman for Illinois ACLU, said the ruling was disappointing but would allow the group's case to be ruled on to potentially block the executive order's rule based on its merits.

Bottom Line: The Bottom Line: Extremely low mishap rate (

The federal government claims more than 250,000 noncitizens are on voter rolls in four U.S. states. Officials in those states, though, expressed doubts about the accuracy of those claims and the federal government has not publicly explained how it came to those conclusions. We look into the claims, and why state election officials are worried about what the government alleges.This episode: senior political correspondent Tamara Keith, voting correspondent Miles Parks, and political correspondent Jude Joffe-Block.This podcast was produced and edited by Casey Morell and Bria Suggs.Our executive producer is Muthoni Muturi.Support public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.

DFW Airport is moving forward with Islamic foot-washing stations inside Terminal D bathrooms, and the details are out. The privately funded project registers at around $300,000 and puts dedicated Wudu ablution stations in both the men's and women's concourse restrooms. Officials say it's about keeping floors dry and sinks intact after travelers wash their feet in regular fixtures. Completion is targeted for the end of the year. Terminal D handles the bulk of international traffic. Similar stations already exist at places like Chicago O'Hare and Houston Bush, and DFW has had limited ablution facilities near its interfaith chapel for years. This expands the practice into the main restrooms. The filing calls it basic infrastructure for safety and sanitation. Plenty of Americans are asking a different question: why special plumbing for one ritual while every other traveler just uses the sinks? This isn't about private funding or wet floors alone. It's about what airports decide is worth accommodating in the middle of Texas. Watch the full conversation for the filing details, the practical defense, the cultural signal, and the commonsense pushback.

Why does Old Dominion continue to win at such a high level in college tennis?ODU Women's Tennis Head Coach Dom Manilla and ODU Men's Tennis Head Coach Dominik Mueller join Aaron and Mike for a wide-ranging conversation about the championship culture both programs have built — and what it takes to sustain that success as college athletics changes around them.The two Doms take us inside their different approaches to recruiting, roster construction, NIL and the transfer portal, including why Mueller believes the portal has actually opened doors for ODU to land better freshmen.They also tackle a much bigger issue facing college athletics: tennis programs around the country being eliminated as athletic departments face increasing financial pressure. Manilla explains why winning, fundraising, community support and running a first-class program have never been more important.Plus:

Dozens of new fires across the state over the weekend, closing canyons and highways, and resulting in several evacuations. Since Friday morning, 55 new fires have popped up. That brings our total fires for the year -- thus far -- to 948. Roughly half of those have been caused by people. In nearby Reno, Nevada, the Hawk Fire sparked over the weekend. Officials believe the fire was deliberately set, and it's resulted in the evacuation of close to 100,000 people. Utah Firewatch -- Greg and Holly get listeners caught up on the latest blazes.

Ok, some of you may be thinking, what’s an extra half mile when you already ran 26.2…. we’re here to tell you it’s HUGE. Even a few extra feet can feel soul crushing, but for the 10 thousand runners at the Edmonton marathon, that extra distance could be the difference between qualifying for the next race or not. After thousands of runners complained their GPS didn’t match with the official race distance, officials pushed back for days, but ultimately re-traced the route and admitted their mistake. The big question now, how will race organizers adjust run times to make it right?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
