A Sunday morning service turned into chaos in Grand Blanc, Michigan. A gunman rammed a vehicle into a crowded church, opened fire, and then set it ablaze.

Newly released files from the Jeffrey Epstein estate are once again putting powerful names in an uncomfortable spotlight. This time, Elon Musk and Prince Andrew.

James Comey — the former FBI director who’s spent years in Donald Trump’s crosshairs — is now facing criminal charges himself.
