FBI weighs jurisdiction in cruise ship homicide, attorney says
In the killing of 18-year-old Anna Kepner aboard a cruise ship, a lawyer told a Florida court the FBI is considering whether to pursue federal charges or refer the case to the state. No suspect has been publicly named and no charges have been filed. The judge found no imminent risk to another child and denied emergency relief, with a contempt hearing set for December 17. This is a tragic case, and speculation helps no one. Let the evidence and due process lead.
Family of newborn shot in the womb calls her a miracle
Days after the accused gunman’s court appearance, the family of the Florida infant who survived being shot in utero spoke publicly, calling her a miracle baby as the legal process begins. A rare beam of hope in an awful situation, with an investigation and court proceedings still ahead.
Hepatitis B at birth claim disputes current guidance
Some reports say a federal vaccine advisory panel scrapped universal hepatitis B shots at birth in favor of a tailored approach. That conflicts with current CDC and ACIP guidance, which supports administration within 24 hours of birth for most newborns. Until official updates are published by CDC or ACIP, treat this claim as unconfirmed and check primary sources before changing clinical practice.

Rumor mill says Netflix will buy Warner Bros Discovery for 82.7 billion dollars
Reports are circulating that Netflix secured financing to acquire Warner Bros Discovery, including HBO. There is no official confirmation from the companies or regulators. Until filings land and CEOs speak on the record, chalk this up as speculative synergy, also known as your watchlist held hostage by rumor.
Memo targeting left-leaning groups raises legal and factual questions
A memo described as offering prosecutors ways to charge entities labeled aligned with antifa is being attributed to Pam Bondi. Bondi is a former Florida attorney general, not a federal attorney general, which makes the description suspect. The broader idea, indict now and substantiate later, is a masterclass in how to turn the rule of law into a press release. If there is a real memo, let us see the provenance and the statutes, not the slogans.
