☆ Congressmen demand answers after CNN report contradicts Pentagon investigations into deadly Kabul airport attack
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-08 | by ( Nick Paton Walsh | Mick Krever | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +10 min

The reporting included a video obtained by CNN captured by a Marine’s GoPro camera that had not been seen publicly in full before. Much of the controversy about the Pentagon’s two investigations into the attack has focused on gunfire in the aftermath of the blast. “Lastly, why do journalists have this video footage and the Department does not? The recent discovery of new video released by CNN directly contradicts and exposes outright lies from our recent briefing last month from CENTCOM officials,” the Gold Star families said in a statement they sent to CNN. Haroon Sabawoon/Anadolu Agency/Getty Images/FileThe evidence also suggests the Pentagon may have more video footage than it has acknowledged in public.

Tim Cook might have helped Apple avert a wider crisis in China. iPhone sales rose 12% in China in March after months of decline. AdvertisementIt looks like Tim Cook can breathe a small sigh of relief about Apple's prospects in China — for now. After months of freefallling iPhone sales there, signs are emerging of a rebound in what is arguably Apple's most important international market. Official government data, first reported by Bloomberg, suggests iPhone sales rose 12% in China in March, with overall shipments of non-Chinese smartphones jumping to 3.75 million units.

Surveying Monday's late-day rally on the floor, Anderson looked up at the NYSE boards and said, "the pain trade is up." The S & P 500 is now within 1.4% of its old closing high of 5,254 from March 28th. The STOXX Europe 600, essentially the S & P 500 of Europe, is also less than 1% below an historic high.

There's mounting evidence of how serious Apple is about artificial intelligence, Jim Cramer said Tuesday, pointing to a Wall Street Journal report about the tech giant developing AI data center chips. "This is the beginning of what I regard as the Apple offense on AI." He also reiterated his Apple stock mantra: "Own it, don't trade it." Following a 48% gain last year and an all-time just under $200 per share back in December, Apple shares fell on hard times. Jim suggested Tuesday that Apple investors will be rewarded for their patience once management fully unveils their forthcoming AI strategy.

I don’t change on that,” the former president said in a recent interview with The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. “If it’s not, you have to fight for the right of the country.” We know, from the 2020 election, that anything short of a Trump victory is, for Trump, tantamount to fraud. “At the end of the day, the 47th president of the United States will be President Donald Trump.”(Watching Scott’s performance, one half-expects him to also tell his interlocutor, “Donald Trump is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I’ve ever known in my life.”)

CNN —President Joe Biden is facing more critical moments this week that will test his fraught relationship with his base over Israel’s war in Gaza and potentially widen the partisan split about the Jewish state that has been building for years. Against this backdrop, partisan polarization about Israel among American voters was already widening years before the brutal Hamas attack last October and the devastating Israeli response it triggered. An array of polls this spring show how the war in Gaza has hardened this partisan split. Nearly half of Democrats, but only a little over one-fifth of Republicans in the CBS poll, said the US should pressure Israel to stop the fighting. “Biden has a Democratic caucus that is putting a lot of faith in this process,” she said.
