Today’s Rundown:
- U.S. MARKS 24 YEARS SINCE 9/11 WITH MEMORIALS NATIONWIDE: Across the country, Americans honored the nearly 3,000 people killed on September 11, 2001. Ceremonies at Ground Zero, the Pentagon, and the Flight 93 National Memorial included name-readings and moments of silence at the exact times of the attacks. Many communities also observed the National Day of Service with food drives and blood donations. Security was heightened, and federal and local officials attended events throughout the day. The 9/11 Memorial & Museum outlined the program and timing for the New York ceremony.
- CHARLIE KIRK SHOT AND KILLED AT UTAH VALLEY UNIVERSITY EVENT: Conservative commentator and Turning Point USA co-founder Charlie Kirk, 31, was shot and killed during an outdoor event at Utah Valley University in Orem on September 10. Officials called it a targeted “political assassination,” and the FBI is leading the investigation. Authorities say a single shot was fired from a distance; earlier detentions were later released, and the search for the shooter continued. The campus and nearby schools briefly locked down as law enforcement responded. Vigils and statements from leaders across the political spectrum condemned the attack.
- COLORADO SCHOOL SHOOTING: 2 STUDENTS INJURED, SUSPECT DEAD: Two students were hospitalized after a shooting at Evergreen High School, west of Denver, on September 10. The suspected shooter, a juvenile, died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, according to local authorities. Investigators processed multiple scenes in and around the school. Early reports varied, but officials later clarified the number of injured students. Counseling and reunification services were offered to families.
- ‘BLOCK EVERYTHING’ PROTESTS SPARK CLASHES WITH POLICE IN PARIS: Demonstrators in Paris and across France blocked roads, lit fires, and clashed with police during a nationwide “Block Everything” action. The protests targeted President Emmanuel Macron’s government and planned budget cuts as a new prime minister took office. Authorities deployed roughly 80,000 officers and reported hundreds of arrests, with the largest disruptions in the capital. While organizers called for a shutdown, officials said police quickly cleared many barricades. The unrest drew comparisons to the 2018 Yellow Vest movement.
- FOX NEWS ADDS SUNDAY SHOW WITH JACQUI HEINRICH AND PETER DOOCY: Fox News is revamping its weekend lineup by launching The Sunday Briefing, co-hosted by White House correspondents Jacqui Heinrich and Peter Doocy. The show debuts Sunday, Sept. 21 at 11 a.m. ET, replacing MediaBuzz, which airs its final episode Sept. 14. Howie Kurtz will remain with the network as a political media analyst. The weekend shuffle also adds other host changes across Saturdays and the Fox & Friends weekend team.
- NASA ROVER REPORTS STRONGEST HINTS YET OF ANCIENT LIFE ON MARS: NASA’s Perseverance rover found mudstones in an ancient river channel that contain minerals and organic matter often linked to microbial activity on Earth. Scientists stress the findings are potential biosignatures, not proof, because similar patterns can form without life. The most promising samples are cached for possible return to Earth, though Mars Sample Return timelines remain uncertain. The research, tied to outcrops in the Bright Angel formation, was detailed alongside new imagery and analysis.
- BAD BUNNY LEAVES U.S. OFF WORLD TOUR, CITING ICE RAID CONCERNS: Bad Bunny said he excluded U.S. dates from his upcoming Debí Tirar Más Fotos world tour because he feared ICE could target fans outside venues. He emphasized he still loves performing for U.S. audiences but did not want to risk attendees’ safety. The artist noted fans can see him in Puerto Rico or other international stops. The tour begins Nov. 21 in the Dominican Republic and runs into 2026.
- LARRY ELLISON BECOMES (AND BRIEFLY TRADES) NO. 1 AS ORACLE SOARS: Oracle’s stock spiked after a blockbuster guidance update tied to AI cloud demand, lifting Larry Ellison’s net worth by roughly $100 billion in a day. The surge pushed Ellison past Elon Musk to become the world’s richest person, with the two briefly swapping places as shares moved. Analysts credited massive, multi-year cloud contracts and a record jump in remaining performance obligations. Coverage varied on whether Ellison finished the day in first place, but he clearly joined the top spot during trading.
