      AP FACT CHECK: Trump wrongly calls Obama 'founder' of IS

      Donald Trump says President Barack Obama is the "founder" of the Islamic State group. According to the GOP presidential nominee, Obama's decision to pull U.S. forces from Iraq in 2011 destabilized the Middle East and created a situation in which Islamic State militants could thrive. In fact, the United States is leading a coalition of some three dozen Western and Arab countries on a mission to destroy IS.

      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 โ€œKing of Bollywoodโ€ 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 Indiaโ€™s independence day.

      French City Outlaws โ€˜Burkinisโ€™ on Beaches

      The mayor of the French city of Cannes has banned the wearing of burkinis โ€“ full-body swimsuits worn by some Muslim women โ€“ on its beaches. Mayor David Lisnard issued an ordinance forbidding beachwear that doesnโ€™t respect โ€œgood morals and secularism,โ€ noting that swimwear โ€œmanifesting religious affiliation in an ostentatious wayโ€ could impact public order while France is the target of terrorist attacks, the BBC reported. A spokeswoman confirmed to NBC that the ordinance applies to burkinis but the mayor told local media that other religious symbols, including the kippah (Jewish skullcap) and the cross, would still be permitted.

      Exclusive: Congressional leaders were briefed a year ago on hacking of Democrats - sources

      U.S. intelligence officials told top congressional leaders a year ago that Russian hackers were attacking the Democratic Party, three sources familiar with the matter said on Thursday, but the lawmakers were unable to tell the targets about the hacking because the information was so secret. The disclosure of the Top Secret information would have revealed that U.S. intelligence agencies were continuing to monitor the hacking, as well as the sensitive intelligence sources and the methods they were using to do it. The material was marked with additional restrictions and assigned a unique codeword, limiting access to a small number of officials who needed to know that U.S. spy agencies had concluded that two Russian intelligence agencies or their proxies were targeting the Democratic National Committee, the central organizing body of the Democratic Party.

      The iPhone 7 is going to be so much more exciting than you think

      If you believe everything you read, Apple's new iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus are going to be "boring." Dozens of tech blogs have been harping on the idea that Apple's new iPhone models are going to be boring ever since details first began leaking months ago.ย Are they crazy? Or are they correctย that Apple's new iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus will be the most boring new iPhones the company has ever made? Look, there's littleย doubt that the design of Apple's upcoming refreshed iPhones is going to be strikingly similar to the current iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus design (you can see a leaked video of the new iPhone 7 in action right here).
