Let's get to this morning to be the headlines everyone. Florida congressman Matt Gates has taken a step to potential potentially oust Kevin mccarthy as house majority speaker. Yesterday, Gates introduced a motion to vacate hoping to force a vote on whether to remove mccarthy, that vote would need a majority to now if it does come to a vote, at least five House Republicans have said they will no longer support mccarthy, meaning he will likely need democratic support to remain speaker. However, there are several ways for mccarthy to stop or delay that vote. He is expected to use one of those procedural options today and some good news that nine year old girl who was missing for two days has been found safe, Charlotte Sina disappeared while riding her bike on a camping trip at a New York state park with her parents. Over the weekend early yesterday morning, the suspect dropped off a ransom note at their home and police used a fingerprint found on the note to identify a suspect based on d records. Authorities then identified where the suspect lived and here's New York, Governor Kay Hole on how the rescue unfolded. They have what they call a dynamic entry, a tactical maneuver and within the camp where they located the suspect. After some resistance, the suspect was taken into custody and immediately the little girl was found in a cabinet cupboard, she was rescued and she knew she was being rescued. She knew that she was in safe hands. Well, Hoel say charges have not been brought against the suspect yet but are fully expected. And we'll have more on this story coming up a little bit later in the show. I'm so glad there's a happy ending here. We will talk about it momentarily and the civil fraud trial against Donald Trump will enter its second day today with the former president showing up in court yesterday to defend himself against charges. The lawsuit brought by New York, Attorney General, Letitia James accuses Trump and his company of deceiving banks and insurers to gain profitable business deals. Trump has denied any wrongdoing and spoke to media outside of the court yesterday. I wanna watch this witch hunt myself. I've been going through a witch hunt for years, but this is really now getting dirty between Jack Smith and between all of these doj people helping them along. This is a pure witch hunt for purposes of interfering with the elections of the United States of America. It's totally illegal. Trump's long time accountant Donald Bender was the first person to testify in court yesterday. Bender discussed Trump's tax practices saying he reported large losses on his tax returns for nearly a decade. Trump is expected in court for the second day of trial today and Hunter Biden is set to appear in federal court today for an arraignment in Wilmington, Delaware. The president's son has been charged with lying about possessing a firearm while using drugs. During the hearing. Hunter Biden will be presented with the charges against him and will be able to enter a formal plea. The hearing comes amid a newly launched impeachment inquiry into his father which accuses the president of allegedly profiting from his son's foreign business deals. Republicans haven't yet provided any evidence leaking to the president any financial benefit. But the federal gun charge against Hunter Biden was part of a plea deal with prosecutors. A North Dakota State Senator, his wife and two Children have died in a plane crash. A Senate leader confirmed it yesterday. State Senator Doug Larson was piloting the small plane in Grand County Utah when it crashed on Sunday. The sheriff's office confirmed that about 8:30 p.m. Officials received notification of the incident. It was about 15 miles outside the airport. The National Transportation Safety Board is now investigating in a statement honoring Larson North Dakota. Governor Joe Bergum said this as a legislator. He was a tenacious advocate for individual rights and the freedoms he defended through his military service while the US Army is changing its recruitment strategies in hopes of encouraging more people to enlist the armed forces will be putting more focus on finding recruits with some college education and work experience as they attempt to compete with a strong jobs market and higher wages. That's according to army secretary, Christine Warmuth, she spoke to the associated press while the army has failed to meet their recruitment annual target since 2014 and last year, they fell 15,000 new recruits short of their enlistment goals. In addition to the economy, the pandemic interrupted recruitment at high schools and a Pentagon study. I did show a smaller portion of us youth would be deemed fit to serve due to health issues or past criminal records. Three scientists won the Nobel Prize in Physics earlier today for their studies into how electrons travel and move around an atom. The award went to scientist Pierre a Agostini for Kraus and Anne, their work looked at a tiny part of each atom that races around the center in one quintillionth of a second. I don't think I've ever read quintillionth before or an A second. This is key within the fields of chemistry, physics, the human body and even our tech and gadgets.
