A 68-year-old Bay Area retiree was allegedly stabbed to death on his own front lawn by an illegal Venezuelan immigrant who had been released from custody just 24 hours earlier, and the Trump administration says California's sanctuary policies are to blame. Tom Homan, President Trump's border czar, went on Fox & Friends Thursday and laid the killing of Todd Stewart squarely at Governor Gavin Newsom's feet. Stewart, a retiree in Martinez, California, was attacked last week in broad daylight by a man he had no known connection to, a man ICE had flagged for deportation months earlier and asked local authorities to hold. They didn't hold him. A Newsom-appointed judge, Contra Costa Superior Court Judge Nichelle Holmes, released 36-year-old…Open
An overloaded ferry capsized on Zimbabwe's Lake Kariba, the world's largest man-made lake by volume, killing dozens of passengers while rescue teams continue searching for 27 people still unaccounted for. The vessel was carrying far more passengers than its 90-person capacity when it went down on the vast lake shared by Zimbabwe and Zambia.

An overloaded ferry capsized on Zimbabwe's Lake Kariba, the world's largest man-made lake by volume, killing dozens of passengers while rescue teams continue searching for 27 people still unaccounted for. The vessel was carrying far more passengers than its 90-person capacity when it went down on the vast lake shared by Zimbabwe and Zambia. Zimbabwe's Civil Protection Unit confirmed through ticket sales that at least 114 adults and five crew members were aboard. An unknown number of children, too young to require tickets, may have been on the ferry as well, meaning the true passenger count could be significantly higher than official records show. Seventy-seven survivors were pulled from the water or reached a small island in the lake on…Open

Former late-night host Jay Leno appeared at the California Capitol to push a bipartisan bill that would exempt pre-1981 classic cars from the state's emissions tests, a measure environmental regulators warn could open a loophole. Leno stood alongside state Sen. Shannon Grove on Wednesday to rally support for Senate Bill 1392, dubbed "Leno's Law." The legislation would free qualifying classic and collector cars built before the 1981 model year from California's smog-check requirement and gradually expand the cutoff through the 1986 model year by 2032. The bill now awaits a key vote in the California Assembly, and lawmakers face an end-of-August deadline to send it to the governor. The pitch is straightforward: owners of decades-old cars…Open

Nicole Kidman broke her public silence on the end of her 19-year marriage to Keith Urban in a new British Vogue interview, describing a period of deep vulnerability and a deliberate choice to keep moving forward. The 59-year-old actress, whose divorce was finalized on January 6 after she filed on September 30 citing irreconcilable differences, told the magazine she had to abandon the life she had mapped out and accept a future she called "completely unknown to me right now." The interview appears in British Vogue's September issue, available on newsstands and digitally starting Thursday, August 20. Kidman did not sugarcoat the emotional toll. She described a stretch of fear and exposure before arriving at a conscious decision about how…Open

Former CBS analyst Boomer Esiason says Tony Romo's time in the network's NFL broadcast booth is "over", a blunt verdict that lands with $72 million still on Romo's contract and a court date weeks away. Esiason, who spent 22 years on CBS's pregame show "The NFL Today," delivered his assessment Wednesday on his WFAN radio program. He did not hedge. The network had already moved J.J. Watt into the top booth alongside Jim Nantz, and CBS Sports president David Berson had publicly framed the situation as a brand-protection exercise the day before. The New York Post reported that Romo remains on indefinite leave and has not publicly addressed either the arrest or his contract status. Romo was arrested July 23 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, while…Open

Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels has cut ties with LSU over the school's decision to give his iconic No. 5 jersey to a current player, a move his family calls a betrayal of promises made. Daniels' attorney, Adam Kenner, sent a cease-and-desist letter to LSU Athletic Director Verge Ausberry demanding the school stop using the 2023 Heisman Trophy winner's name, image, and likeness in any form, NBC News reported . The letter came after LSU allowed sophomore cornerback D.J. Pickett to switch from jersey No. 3 to No. 5, the number Daniels wore during both of his seasons in Baton Rouge. Daniels had made his wishes plain. He did not want another player wearing his number, and he believed LSU would honor that request. The school…Open
