Today is Saturday, Jan. 24, the 24th day of 2026. There are 341 days left in the year.

Today in history:

On Jan. 24, 2011, a suicide bomber attacked Moscow’s busiest airport, killing 37 people; Chechen separatists claimed responsibility.

Also on this date:

In 1835, a major slave rebellion began in Bahia, Brazil, leading to the deaths of dozens of enslaved people in clashes with troops, police and armed civilians in the provincial capital of Salvador. The uprising was seen as influential in helping to bring about an end to slavery in the country decades later.

In 1848, James W. Marshall found a gold nugget at Sutter’s Mill in northern California, a discovery that sparked the California gold rush.

In 1945, Associated Press war correspondent Joseph Morton was among a group of captives executed by German soldiers at the Mauthausen-Gusen concentration camp in Austria.

In 1965, Winston Churchill died in London at age 90.

In 1978, a nuclear-powered Soviet satellite, Kosmos 954, plunged through Earth’s atmosphere and disintegrated, scattering radioactive debris over parts of northern Canada.

In 1984, Apple Computer began selling its first Macintosh model, which boasted a built-in 9-inch monochrome display, a clock rate of 8 megahertz and 128k of RAM.

In 1989, confessed serial killer Ted Bundy was executed in Florida’s electric chair.

In 2003, former Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Ridge was sworn as the first secretary of the new Department of Homeland Security.

In 2013, President Barack Obama’s Defense Secretary Leon Panetta announced the lifting of a ban on women serving in direct ground combat roles.

In 2018, former sports doctor Larry Nassar, who had admitted to molesting some of the United States’ top gymnasts for years under the guise of medical treatment, was sentenced to 40 to 175 years in prison.

In 2023, a farmworker killed seven people in back-to-back shootings in a case of “workplace violence” at two Northern California mushroom farms. It marked the state’s third mass killing in just over a week.

LAKE ORION – The Lake Orion Dragons came from behind in the fourth quarter to defeat the Pontiac Notre Dame Prep Fighting Irish 50-44 Friday night.

The game was one of runs, and the Dragons had the last big run of the game, closing the game on a 13-3 spurt to pick up the victory. Notre Dame Prep had entered the fourth quarter with a 37-34 lead, but the Fighting Irish were whistled for five fouls in the first 1:09 of the fourth period, and Lake Orion spent almost the entire period in the bonus.

For a while, it didn’t look like it would help the Dragons, who started the game 3-for-13 from the free-throw line, including five straight misses to start the fourth quarter. But Lake Orion finally made their free throws down the stretch, sinking 10 of their last 11 from the charity stripe to hold off Notre Dame Prep.

“It was a tough game. They (Notre Dame) played us really tough,” Dragons head coach Jose Andrades said. “We had to weather a storm, and we just stuck together, did what we were supposed to do, and ended up winning the game.”

Maxwell Neering led the Dragons with 13 points and was instrumental in keeping Lake Orion close during the second quarter as Notre Dame unleashed a 15-0 run that overlapped the end of the first period and the beginning of the second period. But then Neering ran off six quick points on his own, including two steals that he took all the way for transition layups, Max Hinderer hit a couple of shots after that, and the Dragons regained the lead, heading into halftime up 20-19.

Lucas Kattula was dominant for Notre Dame through the first three quarters, racking up 14 points and 13 rebounds before the Dragons finally adjusted and held him off the stat sheet in the fourth quarter.

Drake Roa also had a double-double for Notre Dame, finishing with 13 points and 10 rebounds, while teammates Sam Stowe and Ben Liparoto added 10 and seven points, respectively. But that was it for Notre Dame as no other player scored for the Fighting Irish.

“This is probably the first game where those top-four have honed in and played a consistent, steady game” Fighting Irish head coach Andy Durkin said. “We’re still working on our depth, but we’ll get there. We had some guys step up tonight that got extended run.”

Lake Orion spread things around a bit more as seven different players scored for the Dragons. Neering’s 13 points led the hosts, but the Dragons also got 11 points from Jackson Shoskey, including five crucial free throws down the stretch. William Farmer finished with just six points – but all six came in a crucial fourth quarter run that gave Lake Orion the lead for good.

With the win, Lake Orion evens its record at 7-7 overall. The Dragons resume OAA White play -- they're 1-3 in the league -- on Tuesday when they travel to Stoney Creek to face the Cougars.

“The kids are starting to trust the process, and they know things aren’t going well right now – shots aren’t falling. Free throws aren’t falling,” Andrades said. “(But) we keep doing what we’re supposed to do and eventually we should end up on top. We did that today. We just stuck to the game plan and got out with a win.”

Notre Dame Prep is now 3-8. The Fighting Irish have three games next week, starting with a Monday road trip to Swartz Creek as they continue to try to put things together after losing four starters from last year’s team that reached the Division 3 quarterfinals.

“We’re a good team. We’re just still finding our footing, still working out the kinks, but we’ll keep building, keep building. We’ll be alright,” Durkin said. “We’ve been put in this position a couple times before. We’re just still trying to work out the kinks and continue to play together and make those gotta have it shots,” he added.

The Lake Orion Dragons defeated the Notre Dame Prep Fighting Irish 50-44 in the game played on Friday, Jan. 23, 2026 at Lake Orion.

Troy took out two birds with one stone when the Colts traveled to Royal Oak and beat the Ravens on Thursday evening.

The Colts held on and won 63-47, busting a six-game losing streak. But in the process, longtime head coach Gary Fralick finally hit his milestone 500th career win.

“We just played so hard, and every guy who got minutes played hard,” Fralick said after his team triumphed. “The bench was really into it. You could tell they came to play. We had a good week of practice overall. We’re getting a little better and competing better, and that’s what it’s all about it. Doggone it, we don’t have a superstar, but we’ve got guys that play hard and the right way most of the time.”

After the clock hit zeroes, Gary shared an embrace with his wife (and career scorekeeper) Sharon, and had multiple family members in attendance with signs to cheer him on and commemorate the victory.

In addition, Ravens head coach Aaron Smith, who played at and graduated from Troy High just around the time of Fralick’s arrival there in 1994, delivered a tribute prior to the game.

“(Aaron) was my JV coach for 15 years and is just a wonderful man,” Fralick said. “There’s just so many people that have been in my corner for so many years. It’s not all about 500 and me, me, me. It’s about them, and it’s about the team, and it’s about getting better.”

The ink had probably been dry on those signs after the Colts started 5-1, but after beating Fraser on Dec. 18, they fell into a funk, though it seemed like an end to that skid that would coincide with the 500th win was bound to come sooner than later.

Troy lost by three to Brighton at the North Farmington Holiday Extravaganza, then the slump reached four games when the Colts dropped a home game in overtime to their rivals, Troy Athens, on Jan. 9.

“I’m just hoping it comes one of these days,” Fralick said after that defeat. “It seems like it’s been two months, but I’ve got to practice what I preach, let it go and move on.”

It took overcoming six 3-pointers and a 30-point effort by Royal Oak’s CJ Hairston, but Troy got double-digit scoring out of four players (Grant Wilkens, Will DeArmit, Hayden Oriol, Blake Kuiper) to get over the hump.

“Coach Fralick is one of the best coaches in the state,” said Oriol, who led the Colts with 21 points in the win. “I’m just happy to play for him because he always makes practice fun and is always bringing that energy every day in practice and in games.”

Kuiper added, “It feels good, because we started the season off 5-1, then we were just caught on a downhill, so it’s nice that we can get back on track, and also get him his 500th. We’ve known it was his 500th for these past games and just couldn’t get it … Coach Fralick’s like a mentor to me. Not only on the court, but he takes the time out of his day to talk with us and be a friend.”

Speaking about why the wait was growing to get the coveted win, Fralick said, “You win together, you lose together, and we were not concentrating … We were just concentrating on the process of being ready to have success. The process means practice hard to play hard, and you do the little things right. I hardly said anything about 500 or anything (tonight), but I’m glad it’s done and now we can really get back to business. This was a league win for us, so we move on.

Fralick, who earned his 300th win in 2011 and hit 400 in Dec. 2018, was also recently enshrined in the BCAM Hall of Fame as part of its Class of 2025.

A judge has ordered two suspects to stand trial on upgraded charges in the murder of 17-year-old London Thomas, who went missing in April 2025 and was found dead weeks later.

Jalen Pendergrass, 24, and his mother Charla Pendergrass, 49, now face first-degree murder charges after originally being charged with second-degree murder in October. Judge Sabrina Johnson also approved the prosecution's request to add charges of unlawful imprisonment and evidence tampering following more than four hours of testimony during Thursday's preliminary hearing in Inkster.

Thomas went missing on April 5, 2024, and her body was discovered on April 26. Jalen Pendergrass was Thomas' former boyfriend.

Key testimony reveals alleged confession

During the hearing, Lanyja Wilkerson, another former girlfriend of Jalen Pendergrass, testified that he sent her specific song lyrics from a song by rapper NBA Youngboy after Thomas went missing.

"Put the b**** up in the trunk, her family will never see her again," Wilkerson said, recounting the lyrics she alleges Jalen Pendergrass wanted her to hear.

Wilkerson also testified that Jalen Pendergrass later confessed to her about the night of April 5. She said he told her two different stories, and in the first story he said Thomas and his mother got into a physical fight at his home, after which he beat Thomas and tied her up.

Wilkerson then says that Jalen Pendergrass said he was told by his mother to "get angry."

"Did he tell you she (Charla Pendergrass) told him to do anything else?" the prosecuting attorney asked Wilkerson.

"To kill her," Wilkerson replied, then added "He told me that he pulled her out the bed, he stood her up, grabbed a belt and choked her until she fell."

Wilkerson didn't come forward with the alleged confessions until October, which is when both Charla and Jalen Pendergrass were charged with second-degree murder.

Body found in plastic tote

Another witness, a friend of Charla Pendergrass, testified that Charla gave him a large plastic tote containing Thomas' body and asked him to hold it for him, before later asking him to dispose of it.

He says he never asked what was in the bin and he never opened it.

"She told me to get rid of it, to burn it," the witness said.

Suspecting it may be evidence in the case, he contacted police through a lawyer about the tote's location, which was in the trunk of his SUV that he left parked outside a friend's house in Southfield. When police arrived, they found Thomas' body inside the bin tied up and bruised. It had been several weeks since she was reported missing. Prosecutors said evidence shows Jalen Pendergrass' DNA was likely on the handles.

Defense questions witness credibility

Defense attorney Terry L. Johnson challenged Wilkerson's credibility, noting she testified that both she and Jalen Pendergrass were under the influence during the alleged confession.

Johnson also argued the autopsy did not support her story.

"What he (prosecutor) is asking you to do, your honor, is go off what this young lady said, who again was high when she did this," Johnson argued.

The prosecution defended Wilkerson's testimony, arguing the specific details she alleged Jalen Pendergrass told her could only come from someone present during the incident.

Family seeks justice

Thomas' family members attended the hearing, including her mother Jasma Bennett, who called the upgraded charges "one small step toward justice for London and our family."

For just justice to be served peacefully, and I want that to be noted, peacefully its done, Bennett said.

Thomas' sister Jaila Hatcher also testified that she dropped Thomas off at Jalen Pendergrass' home in the early morning hours on April 5. The last time she heard from Thomas, she was at Jalen Pendergrass' house. Hatcher became concerned when she couldn't reach Thomas on the phone.

This isn't like her, why isn't she answering her phone, she doesn't let her phone go dead, Hatcher said on the stand.

"Everything shocked me how the story unfolded, what they did to her," said Darnell Johnson, Thomas' stepfather. "It's crazy how can you do that to a child when youre a mother yourself... Its sickening to believe somebodys parent can be that evil.

Thomas' grandmother Jestina Martin expressed satisfaction with the upgraded charges.

"First-degree murder, that's good enough for me," Martin said.

ANN ARBOR (AP) — Yaxel Lendeborg had 18 points and nine rebounds, Morez Johnson scored 12 points and No. 3 Michigan beat Ohio State 74-62 on Friday night.

The Wolverines (18-1, 8-1 Big Ten) took control with a 21-6 run in the second half after the Buckeyes (13-6, 5-3) tied it for a ninth time midway through the second half.

Ohio State’s John Mobley Jr. scored 14 of his 22 points in the first half when Michigan led 33-30.

Mobley made a 3-pointer and assisted on Christoph Tilly’s 3-pointer to put the Buckeyes ahead by six early in the second half, compelling coach Dusty May to call a timeout.

It seemed to work because the Wolverines went on an 11-0 run during the pivotal part of the game and turned a previously closely contested game with 12 lead changes into a double-digit victory.

Michigan freshman Trey McKenney scored 12 points and Aday Mara had 11 points and four blocks.

Tilly finished with 17 points and Bruce Thornton had 10 points before limping off the court in the final minute with an ankle injury.

Puff Johnson made his Ohio State debut, a week after joining the team and becoming eligible after he was granted a temporary restraining order. He started his career in 2020 at North Carolina and later transferred to Penn State.

Michigan honored Trey Burke, the AP Player of the Year in 2013, by putting his No. 3 jersey in the Crisler Center rafters along with five former greats such as 1989 national champion Glen Rice.

DETROIT (AP) — Kevin Durant scored 32 points as the Houston Rockets ended the Detroit Pistons’ four-game winning streak with a 111-104 victory Friday night.

Durant averages 30.6 points in 32 career games against the Pistons – his highest average against any other team. He added seven rebounds and three assists in 40 minutes without a turnover.

Alperen Sengun scored 19 points and Reed Shepherd added 18 points for the Rockets, who have won four of five. Amen Thompson had 15 points, nine rebounds and seven assists for Houston, which had lost five straight on the road.

Jalen Duren led Detroit with 18 points and seven rebounds, but Detroit’s other four starters combined for 37 points on 13-of-35 shooting (37.1%).

Houston outscored Detroit 34-20 in the third quarter to turn a tie game into an 86-72 lead. Durant and Sheppard combined for 18 points in the quarter on 7-for-8 shooting.

Detroit got within 87-80 with a four-point possession early in the fourth. Cade Cunningham missed, but Jae’Sean Tate was called for a flagrant foul when he undercut Ron Holland II as he went for the rebound. Holland made both free throws and Duren dunked off a Cunningham lob.

After a Rockets turnover, Isaiah Stewart’s three-point play made it 87-83, but the Pistons couldn’t get even.

Josh Okogie’s 3-pointer made it 101-93 with 5:19, and Houston moved the lead back to double figures on Shepherd’s layup with 2:04 left.

Durant had 18 points in the first half, but the Pistons had a 36-24 edge in points in the paint to keep the game tied at 52 going into the third quarter.

Houston’s defense stepped up early in the third quarter, holding Cunningham and Duncan Robinson to two shot attempts in the first eight minutes. The Rockets outshot Detroit 68.4% (13-19) to 36.4% (8—22) in the period.

A Macomb County family is demanding answers after 53-year-old Moneque Cook was found dead behind a building in freezing temperatures, with her daughters questioning the circumstances surrounding her death.

Watch Randy Wimbley's video report: Family has unanswered questions after woman found dead

Cook's body was discovered by a Priority Waste driver behind a building early Tuesday morning. According to her family, Cook had left her sister's Eastpointe home in the middle of the night Monday to visit a friend in Mt. Clemens.

"No shoes, no coat, laying on her back. She would never lay down and die in the freezing cold; that is not my mother, that is not of her character," Cook's daughter Antonia Cook said.

Antonia Cook says the circumstances surrounding her mother's death don't add up. She noted that her mother's face was swollen and her lip was split when she was found.

"She didn't leave her sister's house like that," Antonia Cook said.

The family went to the scene after Cook was discovered and say some of her belongings were still there, including what they described as pants with blood and drag marks on the knees.

"They need to come get this evidence that my niece and them went up there and got what they left on the scene. My niece had to jump in the dumpster and got my sister's stuff," Cook's Uncle, Darryl Cook said.

The family also questions why Cook's friend hasn't contacted them.

"He hasn't shown his face, reached out to anybody, nothing," Antonia Cook said.

"I believe they were maybe having a drink or something, that's what they did, and something happened in between that time," she said.

The Macomb County Medical Examiner's Office says Cook's autopsy results are still pending, and a toxicology analysis is underway.

Cook's death has raised concerns about the plight of the unhoused as temperatures drop to the coldest of the season. However, her family says she was not homeless but rather a woman who fell on hard times and would stay with different family members as they helped her get back on her feet.

"She was just-they put her off as a homeless woman, died behind a dumpster, and that is not Moneque's story," Antonia Cook said.

As the family waits for answers, they hold on to memories of Cook. They have also set up a GoFundMe page to help pay funeral costs.

"My mother is love, love. So sweet. So sweet she would give anybody anything," Antonia Cook said.

The Macomb County Sheriff's Office says this remains an active investigation. Cook's family says until they get answers, they're left waiting for the closure they desperately need.

A person was taken into custody after a car crashed through Detroit Metro Airport Friday evening.

The crash happened around 7:30 p.m., airport officials said.

Witnesses say they heard a loud noise as the car slammed through the entrance and into the Delta Air Lines desk as employees were working. A witness says the driver got out of the vehicle with his hands raised and talking, though it's unclear what the driver was saying.

Travelers say police and TSA responded quickly. Officials confirmed the driver was taken into custody.

"The response was so quick thank God with the cops and TSA and everybody," said Ali Khalifa, who was traveling. "That all happened in seconds."

Six people were treated at the scene, officials say.

What caused the crash is unknown at this time.

It appeared travel continued as normal inside of the terminal Friday night.

The U.S. military said Friday that it has carried out a deadly strike on a vessel accused of trafficking drugs in the eastern Pacific Ocean, the first known attack since the raid that captured Venezuelan President Nicols Maduro earlier this month.

U.S. Southern Command said on social media that the boat was engaged in narco-trafficking operations and that the strike killed two people and left one survivor. It said it notified the Coast Guard to launch search and rescue operations for that person.

A video accompanying the post announcing the latest strike shows a boat moving through the water before exploding in flames. The U.S. military has focused lately on seizing sanctioned oil tankers with connections to Venezuela since the Trump administration launched an audacious raid to capture Maduro and bring him to New York to face drug trafficking charges.

With the latest military action, there have been 36 known strikes against alleged drug smuggling boats in South American waters since early September that killed at least 117 people, according to announcements from the U.S. military and Trump. The majority of those of strikes have occurred in the Caribbean Sea.

The last reported boat strikes occurred in late December, when the military said it struck five alleged drug-smuggling boats over two days, killing a total of eight people while others jumped overboard. Days later, the Coast Guard suspended its search.

The U.S. conducted a large-scale operation in Caracas, the capital of Venezuela, on Jan. 3 that led to the capture of Maduro and his wife, who were then flown to New York to face federal drug trafficking charges.

Maduro, before his capture, said the U.S. military operations were a thinly veiled effort to oust him from power.

President Donald Trump has repeatedly said that the U.S. strikes targeting alleged smugglers are having an enormous impact on slowing drug trafficking routes in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific.

Weve stopped virtually stopped almost 100% of all drugs coming in by water, Trump said in remarks on Thursday at the World Economic Forum at Davos.

ATLANTA (AP) — A federal judge in Georgia on Friday dismissed a U.S. Justice Department lawsuit seeking voter information from the state, ruling the federal government had sued in the wrong city.

U.S. District Judge Ashley Royal found the government should have sued Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger in Atlanta, and not in a separate federal judicial district in Macon, where the secretary of state also has an office.

Royal dismissed the lawsuit without prejudice, meaning the Justice Department can refile it. The department declined to comment Friday.

The Justice Department has now filed lawsuits against 24 states and the District of Columbia seeking voter information as part of its effort to collect detailed voting data, including dates of birth and driver’s license and Social Security numbers. A federal judge in California rejected the lawsuit against that state on privacy grounds, while a judge in Oregon has suggested he may dismiss the case there.

The Trump administration characterizes the lawsuits as an effort to ensure election security, and the Justice Department says the states are violating federal law by refusing to provide voter lists and information.

Raffensperger has been the rare Republican to decline the demand, saying Georgia law prohibits the release of voters’ confidential personal unless certain qualifications are met. Raffensperger argues the federal government hasn’t met those conditions. He says he shared the public part of the voter roll and information about how Georgia removes ineligible or outdated registrations in December.

“I will always follow the law and follow the Constitution,” Raffensperger said in a statement Friday. “I won’t violate the oath I took to stand up for the people of this state, regardless of who or what compels me to do otherwise.”

The refusal to hand over the records has become an issue in Raffensperger’s 2026 run for governor. Raffensperger in January 2021 famously refused a demand from President Donald Trump in a phone call to “find” enough votes to overturn Democrat Joe Biden’s win in Georgia’s 2020 presidential election. Many Trump-loving Republicans still hold a grudge against Raffensperger.

The issue flared just Thursday in a hearing by a state Senate committee where multiple Republican state senators slammed Raffensperger for failing to comply, saying he legally could do so. The committee voted along party lines to advance a resolution calling on Raffensperger to hand over the data and calling it the “latest example of a pattern of behavior by the secretary and his office to refuse oversight of his administration of Georgia’s elections.”

State Sen. Randy Robertson, a Republican from Cataula who filed the resolution, said the dismissal is “frustrating” because even if the Justice Department refiles the lawsuit, the problem will take longer to resolve.

“As public officials we all should participate in any investigation done by a law enforcement agency,” Robertson told The Associated Press Friday.

Robertson is one of many Republican lawmakers backing Lt. Gov. Burt Jones over Raffensperger for the GOP governor nomination. Jones, who already has Trump’s endorsement for governor, was one of 16 state Republicans who signed a certificate that Trump had won Georgia and declaring themselves the state’s “duly elected and qualified” electors.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California sued the federal government Friday for approving a Texas-based company’s plans to restart two oil pipelines along the state’s coast, escalating a fight over the Trump administration’s removal of regulatory barriers to offshore oil drilling for the first time in decades.

The administration has hailed the project by Houston-based Sable Offshore Corp. to restart production in waters off Santa Barbara damaged by a 2015 oil spill as the kind of project President Donald Trump wants to increase U.S. energy production.

The state oversees the pipelines that run through Santa Barbara and Kern counties, said Democratic Attorney General Rob Bonta.

“The federal administration has no right to usurp California’s regulatory authority,” he said at a news conference. “We’re taking them to court to draw a line in the sand and to protect our coast, beaches and communities from potentially hazardous pipelines.”

But the U.S. Transportation Department agency that approved Sable’s plan pushed back on the lawsuit.

“Restarting the Las Flores Pipeline will bring much needed American energy to a state with the highest gas prices in the country,” said a spokesperson with the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration.

Sable did not respond for comment on the lawsuit.

Trump signed an executive order on the first day of his second term to reverse former President Joe Biden’s ban on future offshore oil drilling on the East and West coasts. A federal court later struck down Biden’s order to withdraw 625 million acres of federal waters from oil development.

The federal administration in November announced plans for new offshore oil drilling off the California and Florida coasts, which the oil industry has backed for years.

But critics say the plans could harm coastal communities and ecosystems.

Bonta said one of the pipelines Sable wants to restart burst in 2015, spilling oil along the Southern California coast. The event was the state’s worst oil spill in decades. More than 140,000 gallons (3,300 barrels) of oil gushed out, blackening beaches for 150 miles from Santa Barbara to Los Angeles. It polluted a biologically rich habitat for endangered whales and sea turtles, killing scores of pelicans, seals and dolphins, and decimating the fishing industry.

The drilling platforms were subsequently shuttered.

Sable has faced a slew of legal challenges but has said it is determined to restart production, even if that means confining it to federal waters, where state regulators have virtually no say. California controls the 3 miles nearest to shore. The platforms are 5 to 9 miles offshore.

“It’s crazy that we are even talking about restarting this pipeline,” said Alex Katz, executive director of the Environmental Defense Center, a Santa Barbara group formed in response to a catastrophic 1969 California oil spill.

The federal government’s approval to restart the pipelines ignores painful lessons the community learned from the 2015 oil spill, said California Assemblymember Gregg Hart, a Democrat representing Santa Barbara.

“California will not allow Trump and his Big Oil friends to bypass our essential environmental laws and threaten our coastline,” he said in a statement.

California has been reducing the state’s production of fossil fuels in favor of clean energy for years. The movement has been spearheaded partly by Santa Barbara County, where elected officials voted in May to begin taking steps to phase out onshore oil and gas operations.

Vice President JD Vance on Friday encouraged anti-abortion activists to “take heart in how far we’ve come” on the quest to limit the practice, listing the Trump administration’s accomplishments including an expansion of a ban on U.S. foreign aid for groups supporting abortion services.

“There is still much road ahead to travel together,” Vance told attendees at the annual March for Life demonstration, which draws tens of thousands of people annually to Washington. Attendees rallied on the National Mall before heading to the Supreme Court.

Vance, a Republican, has spent years passionately advocating for Americans to have more children. He repeatedly expressed alarm about declining birth rates as he launched his political career in 2021 with a successful bid for the U.S. Senate in Ohio, and as vice president he has continued on that mission.

“I want more babies in the United States of America,” Vance said in addressing last year’s March for Life.

Earlier this week, Vance and his wife, second lady Usha Vance, announced in a social media post they are expecting a son, their fourth child, in late July.

“Let the record show, you have a vice president who practices what he preaches,” Vance said Friday.

Vance cited the Supreme Court’s 2022 Dobbs decision, which overturned Roe v. Wade, calling it “the most important Supreme Court decision of my lifetime.” He said President Donald Trump’s leadership and appointment of conservative jurists “put a definitive end to the tyranny of judicial rule on the question of human life.”

He also lauded the “historic expansion of the Mexico City policy,” the broadening of a ban on U.S. foreign aid for groups supporting abortion services, to include assistance going to international and domestic organizations and agencies that promote gender identity as well as diversity, equity and inclusion programs.

“We believe that every country in the world has the duty to protect life,” Vance said, to a sea of supporters waving signs reading “Choose Life,” “Make More Babies” and “I am the Pro-Life Generation.”

“It’s not our job as the United States of America to promote radical gender ideology,” he said. “It’s our job to promote families and human flourishing.”

From the Vatican, Pope Leo XIV — the first U.S.-born pope — sent a message of support to participants in the march.

“I would encourage you, especially the young people, to continue striving to ensure that life is respected in all of its stages,” Leo wrote in a letter shown on a video at the march. “May Jesus, who promised to be with us always, accompany you today as you courageously and peacefully march on behalf of unborn children.”

On Thursday, an official said the Trump administration was implementing new rules, halting foreign assistance from going not only to groups that provide abortion as a method of family planning but also to those that advocate “gender ideology” and DEI. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity ahead of the rules’ publication in the Federal Register on Friday.

First established under President Ronald Reagan, a Republican, the policy was rescinded by subsequent Democratic administrations and was reinstated in Trump’s first term.

With its origins in the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that nationally enshrined federal protection for abortion rights, the March for Life developed an entrenched presence among conservatives arguing against abortion. In 2017, Trump addressed the march by video, becoming the first sitting U.S. president to make live remarks. Three years later, he attended the event in person, further cementing its role in conservative politics.

In a video address to this year’s crowd, Trump recounted his administration’s “unprecedented strides to protect innocent life and support the institution of the family like never before,” enumerating his appointment of “judges and justices who believed in interpreting the Constitution as written” and “reflecting on the Dobbs decision that overturned Roe v. Wade.

Since the June 2022 Supreme Court ruling that overturned Roe, the march has become more celebratory, with organizers relishing a state-by-state fight in legislatures around the country and urging a continued fight until abortion is eliminated.

Metro Detroit residents are preparing to hunker down at home this weekend as extreme cold temperatures and another round of snow approach the area.

At Mike's Fresh Market on Detroit's east side, customers have been flooding in to stock up on essentials before the storm hits. Store employees say this surge in shoppers is typical ahead of severe weather events.

Barbara Sanders was among those preparing for the weekend weather while thinking about her grandchildren's needs.

"I forgot to get my baby milk for their cereal yesterday, so I had to come get some milk today," Sanders said. "I was thinking about it all night. I was hoping it didn't start this morning before I got up and got to the store."

Sanders plans to stay inside once Saturday arrives because she doesn't like winter weather.

Deandre Ruffin shared similar plans, stopping by the store for breakfast and dinner supplies.

"Because it's supposed to get real bad out, so I wanted to stop in before it gets too cold, too bad out and take care of all the little stuff I need to take care of," Ruffin said.

Donovan Sullivan Jr. had a specific strategy for dealing with icy windshields, purchasing glass cleaner along with fruit and sweet rolls.

"It helps. It has a coating on it. Once you spray it, it leaves a coating on your windshield and so you don't have to do a lot of scraping. Just basically take the brush and brush the snow off," Sullivan said.

Sue, a longtime employee at Mike's Fresh Market, explained that the store always prepares for increased business before bad weather strikes.

"We have the biggest market in the east side," Sue said. "We don't know tomorrow, the weather is going to be really bad, but we stock everything."

Similar scenes played out at a Kroger location in Oak Park, where shoppers like Teri were gathering supplies.

"Got a few munchies, make sure I got business covered if there's no ability to cook or anything like that," Teri said.

Eric Malisow described the current conditions while shopping for both himself and neighborhood cats he cares for.

"It is absolutely ridiculous out here. I'm wearing triple layers," Milosow said. "What I want to do is I want to make sure that I have some warm food for 'em. I'm gonna get a get a nice warm bowl for them as well."

Aaron Perry expressed a common opinion about winter driving conditions that's motivating many to stay home.

"I hate driving in the snow... because sometimes, my car will slip. Nah," Perry said.

A small cafe in Fowlerville is making a big difference by training adults with disabilities for real-world jobs, giving them the skills, confidence, and experience they need to enter the workforce.

Watch Meghan Daniels' video report: Fowlerville cafe trains adults with disabilities for workforce success

Inside Torch 180 Cafe and Coffee Bar, students are learning much more than how to make coffee or stock shelves. They're practicing customer service, time management, and the soft skills needed to succeed on the job.

"So far, it's just been very amazing. I'm truly blessed to be a part of this opportunity and serve this community," Mikayla Guy said.

Guy is one of several students training at Torch 180, a program designed to help adults with disabilities build confidence before entering the workforce. She's already dreaming big about starting her own retail business.

She's not alone in her entrepreneurial aspirations. Nathan Fessler, another student in the program, wants to start a crocheting business where he can learn to make different items and sell them.

The program was founded by Rhonda Callahan, who says the mission is about much more than job training.

"If they don't have some kind of help with their soft skills and even calming down and gaining self-confidence before they actually go into a real job, another job, then they're way less successful," Callahan said.

Instead of rushing students into the workforce, Torch 180 gives them time to practice, build skills, and believe in themselves.

"The adult world is so different, and it takes time to work through those things, and so that's the equity that we're giving them. We're giving them lots of time to practice and lots of time to develop," Callahan said.

Because the coffee shop is so successful, Callahan is expanding the program to include a retail space in the heart of Fowlerville called Torch 180 Corner Shoppes.

The goal is independence. Callahan hopes to expand their services even further by turning the space into a training area for independent living.

"We would like to turn that into a training area for independent living because when you start making money, and you start to realize, oh my gosh, could I move out sometimes, that's really scary," Callahan said.

Support from community members and partners like Lake Trust Credit Union is helping to make that expansion possible.

"It's inclusive and it also creates a world where everyone thrives, regardless of disadvantages or disabilities," said Rhonda Romsek from Lake Trust Credit Union.
