- A national policy organization is raising concerns about what it describes as a growing "Red-Green Alliance," an ideological partnership between some far-left and Islamist movements united by opposition to Western political institutions despite having significantly different long-term goals.
The Center for Renewing America argues the phenomenon deserves greater attention as debates over socialism, capitalism and American institutions increasingly play out in politics, on college campuses and among younger generations.
Speaking with The National News Desk, Wade Miller, executive director of the Center for Renewing America, described the term as referring broadly to cooperation between Marxist and Islamist movements.

- A growing number of American teenagers are turning to artificial intelligence for help with depression, anxiety and other mental health concerns, raising new questions about what happens when a chatbot begins taking the place of human connection.
New research shows roughly 1 in 5 teens has used AI for mental health advice, a trend that concerns some mental health professionals because those conversations can happen privately, without parents or other trusted adults knowing.
Speaking with The National News Desk, Dr. Josef Witt-Doerring, senior fellow of psychiatry at the Independent Medical Alliance, said his biggest concern is that teenagers may begin treating AI as more than an occasional source of information.

- OKALOOSA COUNTY, Fla. -- A new attraction for anglers, deep sea divers and historians is in its final stages. The SS United States is fully remediated and ready to go underwater.
The ship is still on track to become the world’s largest artificial reef.
Spokesperson for Okaloosa County, Nick Tomecek, says we are "very close" to the day the ship will sink into the Gulf, and the whole project is coming in under budget.
Soon it’ll be all aboard on the SS United States, but you’ll have to be underwater to get a closer look.
"We're just super stoked to see her go down," Tomecek said. "And we're going to continue the legacy and the history of this ship while she's down there."
The smokestacks are off, 100 fuel tanks removed and remediation is complete. The ship has been undergoing months of cleaning to become environmentally safe.
Tomecek says all that’s left is approval on a permit for future artificial ree...

- FLOMATON, Ala. -- Two Flomaton parents are charged with attempted murder, torture and willful abuse of their 15-year-old child.
41-year-old Eric McClure and 36-year-old Cynthia Tedder were arrested Tuesday in Pensacola.
The Flomaton Police Department say the investigation started after a child was brought to Pensacola's Ascension Sacred Heart Hospital in critical condition.
On Sep. 1, according to police, they were contacted by authorities in Florida around 5:13 a.m. about the child.
Police said information obtained led to an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the child's condition.
As part of that investigation, members of the Flomaton Police Department obtained and executed a search warrant at the residence where the child lived on Titi Street.

- U.S. forces are carrying out a new round of strikes against Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as fighting continues around the Strait of Hormuz, with President Donald Trump warning Tehran that an even larger response could follow continued attacks on American forces and commercial shipping.
The latest U.S. operations have targeted Iranian air defenses, radar systems, maritime assets, mine-laying capabilities and communications infrastructure as American forces work to keep the Strait of Hormuz open to international shipping.
Speaking with The National News Desk, former active-duty U.S. Army intelligence Capt.

- The man accused orchestrating the murder of rapper Tupac Shakur was convicted Monday of first-degree murder with use of a deadly weapon, nearly 30 years after the deadly drive-by shooting near the Las Vegas Strip.
Jurors reached the verdict after less than three hours of deliberations. It ended a roughly two-week trial featuring testimony from more than 20 witnesses and focusing heavily on statements Duane “Keffe D” Davis made about the killing over several decades.
Davis, 63, stood next to his defense attorney, Michael Sanft, as the verdict was read inside Clark County District Court. Davis’ son appeared to cover his face with his hand after hearing the decision. Members of Shakur’s family embraced in the courtroom, with one person raising an arm and fist into the air before leaving the courtroom.

- PENSACOLA, Fla. -- The 7th Circuit Court ruled possession of AI-generated child porn is legal as long as it remains in the home.
Previous rulings from the Supreme Court were cited in the decision. That decision from the 7th Circuit impacts Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin.
Since this is a federal ruling, there is potential this could be cited in Northwest Florida cases.
This ruling can be used in a motion to dismiss any possession charges attached to AI-generated child sexual abuse material (CSAM).
The 7th Circuit cites the Supreme Court in its explanation that it's a First Amendment right to possess obscene materials in the home.
But that circuit also calls on the Supreme Court to address some of the pitfalls in legal verbiage surrounding AI-generated CSAM.
And so does Pensacola Police Chief Eric Winstrom.

The 30 years will be added to the 10 years LaCoste received in his first case last year.
LaCoste, 34, was found guilty Thursday of racketeering and contractor fraud charges. He received 30 years for each of the two charges, although those sentences run concurrently.
The judge also ordered that LaCoste pay more than $2 million in restitution to the victims. However, LaCoste says he has no funds or assets to sell, claiming that money he received from clients was put back into his company for other projects.
LaCoste and his company is accused of starting construction jobs, getting paid, and then never finishing the work.
He took to the stand Monday morning for nearly half an hour, asking for mercy from the judge before learning his fate.

Members of the House Intelligence Committee met Monday in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, where the 40 passengers and crew members aboard United Airlines Flight 93 lost their lives on Sept. 11, 2001.
Passengers and crew fought back against the hijackers, forcing the plane down in a field before it could reach its intended target, believed to have been either the U.S. Capitol or the White House.
“The story of those on Flight 93 is one of unimaginable courage and sacrifice,” House Intelligence Committee ranking member Jim Himes said.

Both were released from jail Saturday afternoon -- Dellinger on $10,000 bond and Neely on $5,000 bond. WEAR News is working to obtain the arrest report.
"Based off the video, she was beating and kicking two different dogs, trying to push them back underneath a hole in the fence on the ground by the fence," Santa Rosa County Chief Deputy Randy Tift said. "So she would have abused two dogs, and he had only kicked one dog."
On Thursday, neighbor Annabel Morris' security camera captured the alleged animal abuse. Video of the incident has since gained traction on social media.
"I could hear some commotion on the other side of the fen...

- Lindsay Clancy murder trial jury returns to deliberations after two days without verdict

- Description
- Jurors in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial are returning to deliberations after two days without a verdict, as they wrestle with the central question in a case that has drawn national attention: whether Clancy should be held criminally responsible for killing her three young children.
There is no dispute that Clancy killed her children in the family's Massachusetts home in January 2023. Her defense argues she was suffering from postpartum psychosis and severe mental illness at the time and was unable to appreciate the wrongfulness of her actions.
Prosecutors contend the killings were deliberate and have pointed to evidence they say demonstrates Clancy understood right from wrong and planned her actions.

- Trump’s 'Lake America' order meets pushback along Lake Ontario
- Runtime

- Date posted

- Description
- President Donald Trump signed an executive order Thursday directing federal agencies to refer to Lake Ontario as “Lake America,” giving one of Central New York’s most recognizable landmarks a new federal name.
The order applies to the federal government, but it does not require New York communities, Canada or the public to adopt the new name.
That distinction is especially notable in Oswego County, which voted for Trump in the 2016, 2020 and 2024 presidential elections.
Along the Lake Ontario shoreline, CNY Central found opposition to the name change from both Trump supporters and critics of the president.
Robert Code, an Oswego County resident who said he has supported Trump from the beginning, said the lake should keep its longtime name.
“I’ve been on his side all the way, right from day one, but I think he’s losing it here,” Code said. “I just assumed that remained Lake Ontario.”

- Description
- PENSACOLA, Fla. -- Former Pensacola contractor Jesse LaCoste will be sentenced on Monday for the second time in less than a year.
LaCoste -- who's already serving a 10-year prison sentence from a late 2025 conviction -- was found guilty Thursday of racketeering and fraud charges.
The 34-year-old was convicted of starting construction jobs, getting paid, then never finishing the work.
Executive pastor Justin Oswald of Transformation Church is one of the dozens of people who trusted LaCoste to fix their property, but ended up getting swindled.
"At the end of the day, even if I wanted him to continue the work, he couldn't because he lost his license," Oswald told WEAR News on Friday. "So where's our money? Because no work was ever done."
Oswald was relieved to hear the jury found LaCoste guilty this week.
"My instant reaction, good. I think the law held up," he said. "So many people had the same stories. How cou...

- Tennessee lawmakers want to give Dolly Parton fans a special day each year to celebrate one of her biggest hits.
Earlier this year, Gov. Bill Lee announced Jan. 19 as Dolly Parton Day to mark her 80th birthday.
Now, State Sen. Jessie Seal of New Tazewell said he is pushing a bill to make Sept. 25 “9 to 5 Day” as a tribute to Dolly Parton’s musical legacy and the famous song.
Seal said, “Dolly will go down as one of the most legendary Tennesseans of all time. Not only will her music stand the test of time but so will her legacy of faith and kindness. She embodied the true Volunteer State spirit like no other. While every day is a fitting day to honor Dolly ‘9 to 5 Day’ will give Tennesseans an opportunity each year to set aside a little extra time to listen to one of her most iconic songs and reflect on the once-in-a-century legend.”
