THE FLYOVER,
Tuesday, September 24, 2024,
Good Morning! On this day in 1789, the Judiciary Act, signed by President Washington, established the six-justice Supreme Court, with John Jay nominated as chief justice and five others as associate justices, all confirmed by the Senate on Sept. 26.
How would you like to walk outside your home and see a bull wandering nearby? That happened in Massachusetts when eight bulls turned fugitive after escaping from a local rodeo. Now we’re curious: Have you ever been to a rodeo?

TAKEOFF,
Israel Steps Up Attacks on Hezbollah,
Israel launched massive airstrikes on Lebanon Monday, hitting more than 1,300 alleged Hezbollah targets, killing nearly 500 and wounding over 1,600, potentially signaling a broader military campaign.
Monday’s bombing was the deadliest day of fighting between the two groups since the 2006 Israel-Hezbollah war.
Before the airstrikes, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu released a recorded message, urging Lebanese civilians to evacuate and to take the warning seriously. He also said they could return safely after the operation was completed.
Pentagon officials revealed Monday that the U.S. will deploy a limited number of troops to the Middle East in response to recent events, though they withheld specific operational details.
Suspect’s Note Details Plan to Shoot Trump,
Ryan Wesley Routh, accused of an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, left a note detailing his plan and offering $150,000 for someone else to complete the act if he failed, according to the Justice Department.
“This was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump but I failed you,” the note read. “I tried my best and gave it all the gumption I could muster.”
Prosecutors also found a list of Trump’s appearances and searches on how to travel from West Palm Beach to Mexico in Routh’s car.
Trump’s campaign called the charges against Routh a “slap on the wrist” and blamed the “Kamala Harris/Joe Biden Department of Justice and FBI” for mishandling the case.
New Mozart Work Discovered,
A previously unknown composition by a teenage Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart has been discovered in a German library.
The piece, titled Ganz kleine Nachtmusik, consists of seven miniature movements for a string trio and lasts about 12 minutes.
Experts believe Mozart composed the work in his early teens, around the mid-to-late 1760s.
The newly discovered piece had its world premiere in Salzburg, Austria, on Monday, coinciding with the 40th anniversary of the release of the Mozart biopic Amadeus.
POLITICS,
Former President Trump threatened John Deere with a 200% tariff if it moves production to Mexico, citing the company’s recent announcement during a policy roundtable discussion in Pennsylvania.
The Secret Service’s approval rating has dropped 23 points, with only 32% of Americans giving the agency an excellent or good rating, according to a new poll.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky visited a Pennsylvania ammunition factory Sunday, thanking workers for their support and emphasizing Ukraine’s need for more munitions.

And Now, A word From one of Our Sponsors,
Before we go let me tell you about one of the books found on my Bookstore,
Go to https:// payhip.com/ Christian NonFiction eBookStore then scroll down and click on Interactive Romans Road World English Version
Long Ago, when the Roman Empire was at the height of its glory, a common saying was “All Roads Lead to Rome.” I want to tell you about a very special road — a road that existed then and still exists now. This road, now almost 2,000 years old, has never led to Rome. Yet, strangely enough, it is called the Romans Road.
This takes the reader to selected passages in the Book of Romans in the Bible to explain the plan of Salvation. This is the ideal way to share the gospel using your Kindle. The reader can also read the entire book of Romans un-interrupted.
