During President Donald Trump’s visit to Beijing, China staged a very elaborate, formal welcome ceremony outside the Great Hall of the People—this is standard for high-level state visits, but this one leaned especially grand. Hundreds of Chinese schoolchildren were brought in as part of the ceremony. The kids were cheering, jumping, waving flags, flowers, and in some cases what looked like pom‑pom-style props as Trump and Xi walked past. Would something like this ever happen in America?

POM-POMS AND PAGEANTRY: China’s Grand Trump Welcome

BREAKING NEWS: A Fresno County judge has ruled that the teenage girl accused of being the getaway driver in the Caleb Quick murder will not be tried as an adult and will instead remain in the juvenile justice system. The 17-year-old is accused of driving the shooter—her boyfriend—away after Quick was shot and killed outside a Clovis McDonald’s in April 2025. Prosecutors argued the seriousness of the crime justified adult charges, but the judge determined they did not prove she couldn’t be rehabilitated as a minor. As a result, if convicted, she would face a much shorter sentence with an emphasis on rehabilitation, rather than the much harsher penalties possible in adult court.

BREAKING NEWS: Alleged Getaway Driver in Caleb Quick Killing Will Be Tried as a Minor

The Los Angeles mayor’s race is heating up, with incumbent Karen Bass still leading but facing an unexpected challenge from former reality TV star Spencer Pratt, who has surged into second place. Pratt is running as an outsider candidate, largely fueled by anger over the 2025 Palisades wildfire that destroyed his home. His campaign is now tangled in controversy after ads showed him living in an Airstream trailer on his burned property—only for reports to reveal he’s actually been staying at the upscale Hotel Bel-Air. Pratt insists he hasn’t misled voters, saying he “doesn’t live anywhere” right now because his home is gone and that both the trailer and hotel are temporary solutions.
