      Trump discovers the media can’t take a joke when it comes to Obama and ISIS

      Ratings challenged @CNN reports so seriously that I call President Obama (and Clinton) “the founder” of ISIS, & MVP. The business mogul first used the line at a rally on Wednesday, saying Obama and Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton were “co-founders” of ISIS and that Obama deserved the “most valuable player award” for letting the terrorist group gain traction.

      Woman Almost Loses Hand After Alligator Attack in Florida

      The attack took place in the Florida Everglades, where the 49-year-old woman (who has not been identified), reached into the water after dropping a can. “Her right hand was almost totally amputated,” Mike Jachles, spokesman for the Broward Sheriff’s Fire Rescue said, CNN reports. It’s recommended that people don’t feed alligators, which is illegal in the state of Florida.

      UK teen girl who went to IS area of Syria reported killed

      One of three London schoolgirls who traveled to an area controlled by the Islamic State group in Syria to become "jihadi brides" is believed to have been killed in an air strike, a lawyer for her family says. Tasnime Akunjee told the BBC that Kadiza Sultana's family had been told that she died in the IS stronghold of Raqqa several weeks ago. Sultana was 16 when she and classmates Shamima Begum and Amira Abase — both 15 — traveled to Syria in February 2015 without telling their families.

      IS threat lingers in Afghanistan despite leader's death

      The killing of the Islamic State group's leader in Afghanistan and Pakistan has dealt a major blow to the jihadists, but despite a US-backed scorched earth offensive the regional franchise is far from over, observers said Saturday. Hafiz Saeed was killed in a US airstrike in eastern Nangarhar province last month, the Pentagon announced Friday, as Afghan forces mount an operation against the militants after they claimed the deadliest attack in Kabul for 15 years. The death of Saeed, the second prominent militant to be killed in a US regional strike in recent months, is a setback to the group's efforts to expand beyond its heartland of Syria and Iraq into Afghanistan and Pakistan.

      This Bollywood Star Keeps Getting Stopped at U.S. Airports

      For Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan, a third time trying to enter the United States has proven not to be a charm. Khan, known as the “King of Bollywood” and one of the most famous men in Asia and across the Indian diaspora, flew into Los Angeles on Thursday. In 2009, Khan was stopped by officials at the Newark airport en route to Chicago for a parade to mark India’s independence day.

      U.S. declares a public health emergency in Puerto Rico over Zika

      By Julie Steenhuysen CHICAGO (Reuters) - The Obama administration on Friday declared a public health emergency in Puerto Rico due to the rapid and widespread transmission of the Zika virus, saying it poses a "significant threat" to the health of pregnant women who may be infected and their children. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services last declared a public health emergency in the wake of Superstorm Sandy, which slammed into the New Jersey shore and flooded parts of New York City in 2012. The action gives the government access to additional funding to fight Zika as congressional efforts to allocate money remain stalled.

      Day 7 of Rio Olympics: Death, doping and disrespect

      The United States women's soccer team was eliminated by Sweden in a penalty shootout in the quarterfinals Friday, a startling loss for the four-time Olympic champions. The U.S. goalkeeper criticized the Swedes for the way they played in beating the Americans 4-3 in a penalty shootout following a 1-1 draw — a result that means the world's top-ranked team will miss out on an Olympic gold-medal match in women's soccer for the first time. Said Sweden coach Pia Sundhage: "It's OK to be a coward if you win." Sundhage once coached Solo when the Swede was in charge of the U.S. national team.

      Today Is World Elephant Day. Here’s Why That Matters

      Today is World Elephant Day, and while that means it’s a great time to catch up on cute elephant videos online, there are also serious problems facing the species. Elephant numbers have dropped by 62% over the last decade, according to the World Elephant Day website, and an estimated 100 African elephants are killed each day by poachers. Asian elephants are also in trouble: there are fewer than 40,000 Asian elephants left in the world, which is less than one-tenth of the African elephant population.
