    RACOON RESCUE: Orphaned Baby Raccoons Getting Help

    Hurricane Polo briefly reached Category 5 strength and remains a dangerous major hurricane off Mexico's Pacific coast. While forecasters do not expect landfall, heavy rain, flooding, mudslides, and coastal impacts remain significant concerns. At the same time, Hawaii is monitoring another developing tropical system, and Hurricane Odalys has also strengthened in the Pacific. At Woodside Wildlife Rescue in Mississippi, orphaned baby raccoons get far more than food and shelter. They receive hands-on training in the skills needed to survive in the wild, helping them transition from abandoned kits into self-sufficient raccoons before they're released back into their natural habitat.

    MEASURE S: Supporters And Opponents Campaigning Ahead Of November Election

    Measure S has become one of the biggest local issues on the Fresno County ballot. Supporters say it's necessary to maintain roads, sidewalks, and public transit after Measure C expires, while opponents contend county leaders should return to the drawing board and craft a different proposal. Fresno County voters will decide the issue in November. A new group called No on Measure S Fresno County has formally organized opposition to Fresno County's proposed 30-year, half-cent transportation sales tax, arguing that the measure spends too much on public transit and nonprofit programs and not enough on repairing roads. MeasureSSucks.com is the website launched by the opposition campaign against Measure S, Fresno County's proposed 30-year, half-cent transportation sales tax.

    TUESDAYS WITH TERRY: Handgun Sales Ban, Carry Permits, Tom Brady & a Jackrabbit

    The U.S. Department of Justice announced on September 18 that a longstanding federal law prohibiting licensed firearms dealers from selling handguns to adults ages 18 to 20 violates the Second Amendment and should not be criminally enforced. The article discusses a major gun-rights case in which the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) is urging the U.S. Supreme Court to hear Johnson v. Jacobson and rule that states must honor concealed-carry permits issued by other states. The Daily Mail story focuses on a moment during the Washington Commanders vs. Dallas Cowboys game when Tom Brady, working as a Fox analyst, reacted live on air to a serious injury suffered by Jayden Daniels. According to reports, the entire football team and coaching staff at Victor Valley High School in Victorville, California were suspended for one game following unsportsmanlike conduct after a rivalry victory over Apple Valley High School.

    TUESDAYS WITH TERRY: Will Shatner, Woke & GLP-1 Lawsuits

    William Shatner, the 95-year-old Star Trek icon, performed his first-ever metal concert on September 19 at Park West in Chicago, backed by his band The uckers. The show served as a warm-up for his appearance at Riot Fest. In this National Review opinion piece, writer Becket Adams argues that so-called “woke” ideology has not disappeared, despite claims that a cultural backlash has largely defeated it. Instead, he contends that it has adapted, rebranded, and continues to influence institutions and public discourse. A report carried by KTLA and sourced from NewsNation says patients have filed lawsuits against Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly, alleging that GLP-1 weight-loss and diabetes drugs caused a rare eye condition that led to sudden vision loss.

    TRUMP: U.N. General Assembly Overshadowed by Middle East Conflicts

    The 2026 United Nations General Assembly is being heavily shaped by ongoing Middle East conflicts. Discussions involving Trump, Pezeshkian, Netanyahu, Gulf leaders, and other world officials are focused on the wars involving Iran, the Houthis, Hamas, and Hezbollah, as well as broader concerns about regional security, global trade routes, and energy markets. Braden Peters (Clavicular), a controversial "looksmaxxing" streamer, has reportedly been charged in Massachusetts with rape, drugging a person for sex, and providing alcohol to an underage person. The allegations appear related to claims previously raised in a civil lawsuit filed by influencer Aleksandra Vasilevna Mendoza. Peters denies wrongdoing, and an arraignment is scheduled for October 14.

    DATA CENTERS: A New Political Flashpoint

    According to a Fox News report, large-scale data center construction is becoming an increasingly prominent issue ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, with communities raising concerns about energy use, water consumption, land development, and quality-of-life impacts. At the same time, Republican lawmakers are arguing that decisions about data centers should remain primarily local rather than being directed from Washington. Clovis has completed improvements to a half-mile community trail and named it after Clinton J. Letterman, a volunteer firefighter who died in the line of duty in 1969. The project expands recreation opportunities while honoring a local public servant's legacy.

    NEWSOM: CA Gov. Signs Package Of Data Center Bills

    Do you agree or disagree with Pres. Trump banning CNN, MSNow and Politico from the White House press pool? The iconic Ripley’s Believe It or Not! attraction at San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Wharf is scheduled to close by the end of 2026. The company has not explained the decision, but the closure will end a roughly 60-year run in one of the city’s most recognizable tourist districts. Gov. Gavin Newsom signed seven data-center-related bills, including SB 886, which is intended to keep the costs of powering large data centers from being passed on to residential and other nonparticipating utility customers. The legislation reflects growing concern over the energy demands of AI and large-scale computing facilities in California.

    NO MOVEMENT OF GOODS DAY: Diesel Prices Are Squeezing Agriculture And Trucking

    According to Nisei Farmers League, rising diesel prices are becoming a major concern for California farmers and truckers, prompting the Fresno-based organization to propose an October 1 "No Movement of Goods Day" to highlight the growing cost of producing and transporting food. California is beginning the process of prohibiting insurers from considering a driver's marital status when setting auto insurance rates. Ricardo Lara argues that premiums should reflect driving behavior and risk, not personal circumstances such as being married, single, divorced, or widowed. If approved, the change could take effect by July 2027.
