Media witnesses were eventually led into the witness chamber outside the death chamber at 6:41 p.m.

At 7:26 p.m. the blinds into the death chamber opened for witnesses to see Pike strapped to the gurney.

Media witnesses reported hearing Christa Pike speak multiple full sentences throughout the process.

“My arm feels like it’s about to bust. One spot is really throbbing," said Tori Gessner, a WKRN reporter and media witness.

The blinds closed at 7:46 p.m. Witnesses said they could still hear her breathing when the blinds were closed.

Just 3 minutes later, the blinds were opened again. Pike was still breathing and began snoring, witnesses said.

The blinds closed again at 8:05 p.m. Witnesses said the breathing continued while the microphone was still on. Prison officials removed the witnesses from the room at 8:53 p.m. When the microphone cut off, witnesses could still hear her breathing.

I genuinely think nathaniel rakich should be publicly shamed for this behavior. You shouldn't act this way
A series of tweets from nathaniel rakich that say A pox on both your houses. This entire subculture on ET of finding polls early needs to stop. It’s unhealthy and you’re operating without a net if the data is bad.
If you are going to cover polls, you need to accept responsibility for your role in public trust in elections. This is not a game.


This in response to an account saying they didn't hack the website of the Marist poll. Rakich had claimed that they had hacked the website to get the poll early

the aforementioned reporting apnews.com/article/redi...
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — Opponents of redistricting in Missouri appealed to U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday after an appeals court let stand a new map backed by President Donald Trump.

It's is the latest turn in the legal battle over the 2025 redistricting. The changes are aimed at helping Republicans gain an extra seat in their effort to maintain control of the U.S. House.

More appeals are expected, however, with the midterm elections fast approaching.

It comes shortly before ballots begin going out in the pivotal midterm elections

THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. AP's earlier story follows below.

from the order and here's a link: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
 Accordingly, the Court grants Plaintiffs' motion for a temporary restraining order and enjoins, on federal law grounds, Secretary of State Hoskins—as well as his officers, agents, employees, and attorneys—from implementing, using, publishing, distributing, or mandating the use of any congressional district map other than the HE I map for the November 3, 2026 general election. The Court finds that a hearing is not necessary because all parties have participated fully through their briefing, and because all parties agree on the material facts. The Court also denies Plaintiffs' Motion to Expedite as moot.

Children flying kites might be terrorists www.bbc.com/news/article...
Four kites were found in Kibbutz Nahal Oz, which is about 800m (2,620ft) from the Gaza border, on Friday and Saturday. Several more were found elsewhere in southern Israel last week, according to local media.

The Israeli reports cited military sources as saying they believed Hamas was behind the kites and that they might have been intended to test Israel's response.

No suspicious materials were attached to the kites and they did not pose a threat, the military said.

But Katz warned there would be "zero tolerance" and said: "A balloon is treated like a kite, and a kite is treated like a drone, with or without explosives."

actual comment someone posted on the devlog for streets of fortuna. the devlog entry wasn't overly celebratory in any way
Please don't take this the wrong way, but I don't usually meet the chef before the dishes impress me. I mean, my feeling toward the creators, will depend entire on my feeling toward the creation itself, your game. There is no point, in my humble opinion, to celebrate anything before it is worth celebrating, no? It always look very self absorbed to me, talking too much about the creation process of a game before people really wanted to know about it because they like the game. Anyway good luck to you guys!

ya know, I don't think that's how you're supposed to disassemble a firearm.... www.postandcourier.com/news/crime/s...
CHARLESTON — A security guard accidentally fired his handgun within the Charleston County courthouse complex on Aug. 5, officials said.

The firearm went off around 10 a.m., inside the county offices portion of the building at the entrance adjacent to Meeting Street.

A Walden Security officer contracted by the county to provide protection within the building accidentally fired the gun near a security entry point, according to county spokesperson Chloe Field.

The entrance provides access to the Charleston County Auditor office at 101 Meeting St.

The officer had removed his duty-issued handgun from his hip holster and was showing a coworker how to disassemble it when the weapon fired. A bullet struck a standing metal detector at the security checkpoint, Field told The Post and Courier.

The officer reportedly cut his finger during the incident. No one else was injured.

Who could have imagined that the rush to complete the reflecting pool work before the America 250 celebration would have caused a flawed installation by the contractor????
The Associated Press page for the article about the Justice Department dropping the criminal case against the Olympian charged with damaging the reflecting pool.The Justice Department moved Friday to dismiss a criminal case charging a former Olympian with deliberately damaging the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.

Government lawyers said in a 20-page court filing the information provided since the indictment of David Hearn shows that the damage was the result of a flawed installation by the contractor as well as the rush to complete the project prior to events associated with the America 250 celebration in the week surrounding Independence Day, 2026.
