After almost three weeks, and much mockery, there's finally a new Speaker of the House. Today, Louisiana state representative Mike Johnson got enough votes to be sworn in, but things were ugly right up to the end. During a press conference, a reporter asked Johnson about his role in seeking to overturn the 2020 election and got quite a reaction. And it was just a few days ago the head of the FBI warned of the possibility of criminal activity in this country linked to the unrest in the Middle East, and it appears to have happened. A family in California says they were forced to hide in a locked room after an intruder broke in threatening to 'kill the Israelis.' As Jim Moret reports, police were called and arrested the suspect, leaving the family terribly shaken. Plus, troubling questions about that pilot who has pleaded not guilty to grabbing the controls on a commercial jet mid-flight. He reportedly told investigators he's been depressed for years and had consumed magic mushrooms two days before the episode. Was he trying to treat his depression? Many others have... including these moms who say mushrooms have done wonders for their mood. And it's a security vault containing millions of dollars' worth of diamonds, so you'd hope it would be super safe.
