      Paul Ryan’s GOP opponent unloads as primary day looms

      The Wisconsin businessman challenging House Speaker Paul Ryan for his congressional seat unleashed a litany of insults against his competition Monday, calling Ryan a “soulless globalist” who sold out to hedge fund managers and betrayed American workers. Paul Nehlen, senior vice president of operations for Neptune-Benson, a water filtration company, is gunning for Ryan’s position as representative from Wisconsin’s First Congressional District in the Tuesday primary. Nehlen spoke to Yahoo News Guest Anchor Stephanie Sy on Monday to discuss his steadfast support for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, and his disillusionment with Ryan, the highest-ranking elected official in the GOP.

      Boy, 14, killed by L.A. police may have fired on officers: police

      Witnesses saw a 14-year-old boy, suspected of spraying gang graffiti, fire at officers before he was shot to death, a Los Angeles Police Department official said on Wednesday. Deputy Chief Robert Arcos told reporters a loaded handgun was recovered from the scene where Jesse James Romero, 14, was gunned down by an LAPD officer during a foot pursuit at about 6 p.m. on Tuesday (0100 GMT Wednesday). Police departments nationwide are under increased scrutiny over fatal shootings, especially of young men, which have re-ignited a debate over the use of lethal force by officers and the role of racial bias in the U.S. criminal justice system.

      Baby in Texas dies from Zika

      A baby born with brain defects caused by the mosquito-borne Zika virus has died in Texas, marking the southern state's first Zika-related death, officials said Tuesday. Meanwhile, the number of locally transmitted cases of Zika in the Miami area jumped to 21, prompting both Florida's Republican governor and Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton to urge the nation's lawmakers to re-convene from their summer break and agree on a funding bill for the outbreak. The mother had become infected with Zika while traveling in Latin America, and gave birth to the baby in Harris County near Houston, according to the state health department.

      Boy’s Water Slide Death Prompts Calls to Action for Amusement Park Safety

      The death of a 10-year-old Kansas boy, who was decapitated on the world’s tallest water slide over the weekend, has revived calls for change in the amusement park industry, which advocates say lacks federal oversight and data tracking. Caleb Schwab was killed Sunday while zooming down the 168-ft.-tall Verruckt water slide at the Schlitterbahn water park in Kansas City, police said. There is no single federal agency responsible for enforcing rules and regulations at Schlitterbahn, which is monitored by the state’s Department of Labor.

      Delta shutdown strands 1,000-plus at Narita airport in Japan

      More than 1,000 people spent the night at Narita airport outside Tokyo because of the computer shutdown that halted Delta Air Lines flights worldwide. Flights were resuming Tuesday morning at Narita, but Delta spokeswoman Hiroko Okada said some more delays were expected. Narita is the Asia-Pacific hub for Delta and several other U.S. airlines, so multiple flights arrive from the U.S. and then fan out to destinations in much of Asia.

      Turkey says to halt EU migrant deal if no date given for visa-free travel

      Turkey will stop implementing an agreement with the European Union to stem the flow of migrants into the bloc if the EU does not provide a clear date to grant visa-free travel to Turks, EU Affairs Minister Omer Celik said on Tuesday. In an interview with Turkey's Haberturk television, Celik said asking Turkey to change its terrorism laws, a key demand from the EU to finalize visa-free travel, would mean endangering Europe's own security.

      U.S. Combat Troops Move Closer to the Frontlines in Libya

      American special operations forces are helping to call in airstrikes on Islamic State positions in and around Sirte, Libya, leaving U.S. troops closer to the frontlines of that war — and in more danger of being killed or wounded — just as they face increased risks in Iraq and Afghanistan as well. The growing role of the elite U.S. forces in Libya, first reported by the Washington Post, comes as American military personnel in Iraq help Iraqi forces push toward Mosul while battling ISIS in eastern Afghanistan.
