There are new questions on Wednesday about the war with Iran and whether the country would consider attacking the United States and California in particular. Gov. Gavin Newsom addressed those reports on Wednesday. “As it relates to drone strikes, we have been aware of that information,” he said. “We have been working collaboratively through the (SOC), which we established right after the war began -- the State Operations Center. Working with the Office of Emergency Services, but also working locally to make sure we transmit any information that we have received.”  Kai Trump, the 18-year-old granddaughter of President Donald Trump, brought her Secret Service detail and all her YouTube followers along on a run to luxury grocery store Erewhon, sparking widespread criticism on social media.  Fresno and the Central Valley could see temperatures rise as high as 90 degrees by early next week — unseasonably warm weather that may signal a hotter spring and summer this year. JP Kalb, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service’s Hanford office, said the warmer weather is the result of a large pressure system off the California coast and is thwarting rainy weather.  A Texas spaceflight company is planning a rocket launch today for the first time in nearly a year from California. And despite the vehicle's smaller stature just shy of 100 feet tall, Firefly Aerospace's Alpha rocket is projected to be widely visible across the West Coast.  A faulty 12‑volt battery caused a Cadillac Lyriq EV in Antioch to shut down completely, trapping a 1‑year‑old baby inside while all electronic locks, key fobs, the mobile app, and even OnStar stopped working. After nearly 30 minutes, the family freed the child by using a hidden mechanical key a solution they found through ChatGPT.  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---  Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ  | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon | - Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram 

The governing board for the state’s third-largest school district will discuss eliminating more positions at Wednesday’s meeting, according to the meeting agenda. The 49 positions on the list are retirements or vacancies from classified positions, including 15 custodians, 14 nutrition services assistants and two bus drivers.  Investigators contacted the Albuquerque homeowners to gather the home camera footage and information in an effort to track down William Neil McCasland, 68, who vanished without a trace from his home on Feb. 28, according to the Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office.  The attorney general relocated from a Washington apartment to a base in the area within the past month, according to people familiar with the situation.  A new study shows that AI can identify the real people behind burner or pseudonymous accounts with surprising accuracy, posing a major threat to online anonymity. Large language models were able to deanonymize 68% of users in the test dataset — and when they did, the identifications were 90% accurate. Researchers from ETH Zurich, MATS, and Anthropic say AI can pull subtle “identity signals” from writing style, behavior patterns, and data matching, essentially breaking the long‑held assumption that burner accounts are safe.

Joe Rogan ripped President Donald Trump for his “insane” war against Iran on Tuesday and argued he let down his Make America Great Again supporters by launching it. Rogan also questioned whether Israel prodded Trump into striking Iran.  The Defense Department burned through $93 billion that month alone, signing checks left and right in order to dry up its congressionally allocated budget, according to a recent analysis by the government watchdog Open the Books.

Assemblymember Joaquin Arambula was scheduled to speak at a Sacramento press conference on expanding Medi‑Cal for undocumented immigrants — but bailed minutes before it began, just days after news broke that he spent a month in rehab for alcohol and marijuana addiction.   Republican Christine Bish is switching races, announcing she will now run for California’s 3rd Congressional District after Rep. Kevin Kiley decided to leave the GOP and seek reelection in the newly redrawn District 6 instead. Bish said Kiley’s move “changed the dynamics” and left District 3 without a strong Republican contender—even as Democrats hold an 8‑point voter edge there. She will once again face Democrat Ami Bera, who is also jumping districts after redistricting.  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---  Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ  | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon | - Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram

The FBI warned California police that Iran had considered launching a drone attack on the state from an offshore vessel if the U.S. struck Iran, though the intelligence had no confirmed targets, timing, or details. State officials, including Gov. Gavin Newsom, say they’re aware of the alert and coordinating with federal partners, but emphasize there is no credible or imminent threat.  A new report shows Gov. Gavin Newsom’s wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, has taken in over $3.7 million through her gender‑advocacy nonprofit, The Representation Project, and her for‑profit company Girls Club LLC — at times collecting nearly 30% of the nonprofit’s entire annual revenue. Her compensation is higher than 95% of CEOs running nonprofits of similar size, raising fresh scrutiny over the eyebrow‑raising payouts.  State Republicans are pushing Governor Gavin Newsom to replace commissioners of the California Board of Parole Hearings after the board approved the release of two sex offenders, including a man described as a serial child predator.  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---  Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ  | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon | - Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram 

Uber has officially expanded its women-only matching feature across the United States, allowing both women riders and drivers to pair exclusively with other women for added comfort and safety. The rollout builds on a successful pilot and offers options such as requesting a woman driver, setting women‑only preferences, and even enabling teens to do the same. Despite facing a California class‑action lawsuit alleging discrimination against men, Uber says the feature answers longstanding safety concerns raised by women using the platform.

In her first full year leading the Fresno Police Department, Chief Mindy Casto delivered unprecedented results—bringing the city’s homicide count down to just 22 in 2025, the lowest in over 50 years. Through targeted gang enforcement, rapid investigations, and expanded use of technology like ShotSpotter and license-plate readers, Fresno achieved a 70% drop in murders since 2020 while maintaining a 100% clearance rate.

  Lavish Pentagon purchases—ranging from $6.9 million in lobster tail and $2 million in Alaskan king crab to a $98,329 Steinway grand piano and a $21,750 handmade Japanese flute—have ignited public outrage. These extravagant “use‑it‑or‑lose‑it” end‑of‑year splurges reached a record $93.4 billion in September 2025 alone, underscoring systemic budget‑burning practices. Similar last‑minute spending habits plague other government departments as well, revealing a broader culture of fiscal waste that watchdog groups say urgently needs reform.

The Army is granting more direct commissions to civilians in high-tech fields like cyber, artificial intelligence, and space. The plan to put these new soldiers in uniform is an expansion of a program that directly commissioned four Silicon Valley executives into the Army Reserve as lieutenant colonels last June.  Based on 2024 U.S. Census data, the most recent available, the analysis shows that full-time workers ages 22 to 27 who majored in theology, performing arts, social services and education report some of the lowest median earnings early in their careers.  Authorities responded to a reported hazmat situation at Disneyland on Tuesday after an unknown odor was detected near the backstage area of Tomorrowland’s Star Tours attraction.  Trump has been gifting footwear to agency heads, lawmakers, White House advisers and VIPs. “Did you get the shoes?” he asks at cabinet meetings. Some people have laced up in the Oval Office. During a lunch meeting in January, Trump suddenly pivoted to his “incredible” new shoes and gave Tucker Carlson a pair of brown wingtips.  The Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine narrowed the 10 most dangerous cities for drunk driving, looking at the percentage of fatal crashes involving alcohol-impaired drivers.

Kiley said he didn’t view his move as a falling out with the Republican Party, but as a show of “frustration with partisanship itself.”  Iran sent out a possible “operational trigger” to activate “sleeper assets” abroad after the war with America and Israel began, according to an encrypted message intercepted by the US. The coded signal was sent out following the death of Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei on Feb. 28, with the message appearing to hold instructions for “covert operatives or sleeper assets.”  The aircraft spent nearly two hours making mock landings at the Fresno Yosemite International Airport, according to observers. The plane was identified as a Boeing E-6B Mercury, often referred to as a “Doomsday Plane.”  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---  Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ  | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon | - Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram 

A newly-surfaced document published in the DOJ's Epstein database reveals that an inmate once told the FBI that he overheard prison guards talking about covering up Epstein's death on the morning the sex offender died.  Kiley said he didn’t view his move as a falling out with the Republican Party, but as a show of “frustration with partisanship itself.” He said that if he wanted to forge an easier political path he would have run in a safe Republican district.

Oil prices continue to soar as "major combat operations" continue in Iran. The national and local economy is feeling the hit, especially at the gas pump. To erode public support for the joint U.S.-Israel military operation, Iranian state media has sought to portray those countries’ leaders as part of a corrupt and depraved “Epstein class” or “Epstein regime.” Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---  Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ  | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon | - Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram

A proposed California voter ID initiative has submitted over 1.3 million signatures, putting it on track for the November 2026 ballot pending certification.

From the offices of Lerandeau & Lerandeau Family Law, Lacey Sanchez joins the program to help us untangle some of the questions regarding Elizabeth Arambula’s divorce filing from the five-term State Assemblyman, Joaquin Arambula. Philip Teresi also takes a look at a report from The San Joaquin Valley Sun that says Fresnoland, a nonprofit media outlet, has been notably silent on two major Fresno stories, Assemblymember Joaquin Arambula’s rehab‑and‑divorce scandal and the illegal human‑compost controversy at Sumner Peck Ranch, even as the stories dominated other local news coverage. The article points to Fresnoland’s financial and organizational ties to the Arambula family, including Joaquin Arambula’s brother serving on its board, arguing that these connections may explain why the outlet has avoided reporting on scandals that directly involve the family.  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---  Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ  | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon | - Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram

California’s top‑two primary system means only the two highest vote‑getters advance to November, regardless of party. With 10 candidates on the ballot — 8 Democrats and 2 Republicans — the Democratic vote could split into small fragments, creating a real chance that both Republicans finish ahead of any single Democrat. Democratic leaders have publicly warned that the crowded field could “carve up” the vote and allow an all‑GOP general election, a scenario they tried unsuccessfully to prevent before the filing deadline closed.

California gas prices are climbing sharply as the Iran war pushes crude oil above $100 and disrupts global supply routes, including the vital Strait of Hormuz. The state is hit even harder due to refinery closures, strict environmental fuel standards, and long‑standing energy policies that reduced in‑state production and increased reliance on imported oil. Prices have surged to around $4.81–$5.20 per gallon, with experts warning they could rise further as seasonal summer‑blend fuel requirements kick in.

Wendy’s U.S. president Pete Suerken jumped into the viral fast‑food “burger wars” by filming himself grilling and devouring a Baconator, taking big confident bites and praising it as “what a good hamburger should be.” His video playfully jabbed rivals — including a dig at McDonald’s famously broken ice‑cream machines — and followed viral clips of McDonald’s and Burger King executives awkwardly taste‑testing their own burgers.  Wendy’s has launched a nationwide search for a “Chief Tasting Officer”, offering a $100,000 salary to a fan willing to taste menu items and create content — a marketing stunt arriving right as fast‑food “burger wars” heat up online between major chains. The playful job posting requires no formal qualifications beyond “a mouth, a pulse, opinions, and creativity,” and applicants must submit a short video before March 30 to be considered.   A reminder that’s become a road-trip ritual for plenty of families is officially back on the road in New York.

Scientists have discovered a plant‑derived molecule called DHL‑11, isolated from Munronia henryi, that kills aggressive triple‑negative breast cancer cells by triggering a cascade of DNA damage, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. The compound works by disrupting the cancer‑critical enzyme IMPDH2 in an unusual way — destabilizing it rather than simply blocking it — and showed strong effectiveness in both lab tests and patient‑derived tumor organoids.  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---  Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ  | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon | - Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms:  ---   Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.   -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ   | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon |  - Everything KMJ  KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram

Puff Puff, Bang Bang, the Supreme Court appeared ready to curb the federal ban that blocks regular marijuana users from owning guns, with justices questioning whether occasional cannabis use makes someone too dangerous to exercise Second Amendment rights. Several justices pressed the government on the law’s overreach, noting weed is legal in most states even as Congress still classifies it as a controlled substance.  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---  Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ  | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon | - Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram 

The San Joaquin River Parkway Trust has halted its use of human‑derived compost at Sumner Peck Ranch after Fresno County officials and the San Joaquin River Conservancy said the practice may violate state law and was done without required approval. County leaders, including Supervisor Garry Bredefeld, blasted the decision and warned the trust may face legal action if the material isn’t removed.

Fresh court filings show Assemblymember Joaquin Arambula spent a month in an inpatient alcohol and marijuana rehab program during January 2026, stepping away from the Capitol while navigating a divorce and escalating personal pressures. In his declaration, Arambula stated: “Recognizing that I was having difficulty dealing with the stress of my occupation and the demands made on me, I voluntarily entered an inpatient rehabilitation program on Jan. 7, 2026.

 Does the US/Israel war with Iran need Congressional approval?  Democrats are freaking out over the over-crowded field of candidates for California Governor.

The San Joaquin River Parkway & Conservation Trust is hitting the brakes on using compost made from human remains at Sumner Peck Ranch after public outcry and warnings from county and state officials.

The U.S. Senate passed a bill authorizing President Trump to award the Medal of Honor to retired Marine Maj. James Capers Jr., who saved his reconnaissance team during a brutal 1967 Vietnam ambush despite severe gunshot and shrapnel wounds. Capers — a trailblazing Recon Marine and Silver Star recipient — has long been championed by veterans who say his valor was overlooked for decades, and the bill now awaits the president’s approval.  Supporters of a California ballot initiative to require voter ID say they’ve submitted 1.3 million signatures, enough to potentially place the measure before voters in November; the proposal would mandate government‑issued ID, verify citizenship of registered voters, and tighten voter‑roll accuracy. Opponents argue voter fraud is exceedingly rare and warn the measure would disproportionately disenfranchise low‑income residents, seniors, people with disabilities, and women whose IDs don’t match voter records.  Britney Spears was arrested in Ventura County on Wednesday night for DUI, after CHP officers pulled her over in Westlake Village, took her to a hospital for a blood draw, and then booked and released her early Thursday morning.
