At least 13 people were killed in southern California on Tuesday when a vehicle packed with passengers collided with a large truck in a "chaotic scene" close to the Mexico border, officials said.
The accident occurred when the SUV carrying more than two dozen people -- including minors -- and a semi-truck full of gravel crashed near El Centro, California, Judy Cruz, an official from El Centro Regional Medical Center said.
White supremacist live-streamer arrested by FBI in Florida — his followers are scared they're next
On Tuesday, The Daily Beast reported that the FBI arrested a prominent white supremacist live-streamer in a dawn raid in Florida.
"FBI agents, working with Fort Lauderdale police and the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force, arrested Paul N. Miller, 32, on one charge of being a 'convicted felon in possession of a firearm,'" reported Will Sommer. "Miller's neighbors in Fort Lauderdale's Riverside neighborhood reported hearing flashbangs during the raid, which took place around 5 a.m. ET, local TV station NBC 6 reported. One neighbor described seeing law enforcement officers carrying out a box that appeared to have 'a shotgun on the front or an AK.'"
On Tuesday, The Washington Post reported that the White House plans to withdraw Center for American Progress head Neera Tanden as the nominee for director of the Office of Management and Budget later this evening.
Tanden, whose nomination has been in limbo for days due to complaints from senators in both parties about her critical tweets about them on social media, is the first Biden Cabinet nominee to fail to be confirmed.
