Tuesday, August 5, 2025.
Good Morning! On this day in 1957, Dick Clark’s American Bandstand made its national debut on ABC-TV as a showcase for teens dancing to Top 40 songs. The show would run for 32 more years, but only one episode from the 1950s still exists.
Today, we bring you the story of a 92-year-old Ohio man who quietly logged every book he read—3,599 in all—over six decades. Do you keep a record of what you read? Or do the books disappear behind you like footprints in the sand?
We hope you enjoyed reading today’s Flyover. Let us know how we’re doing by replying to Russell Sherrard at russellsherrard@reagan.com.

TAKEOFF.
Netanyahu Orders Full Takeover of Gaza.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu approved a full military occupation of the Gaza Strip on Monday, aiming to force Hamas to release roughly 50 remaining hostages.
The move follows the release of disturbing Hamas videos showing emaciated hostages, including 24-year-old Evyatar David, sparking national outrage and fear for their lives.
Netanyahu bypassed top military leadership to push the plan forward, despite warnings it could endanger hostages and worsen Gaza’s humanitarian crisis.
Former Israeli security chiefs denounced the move as a political gamble and called for a negotiated end to the 21-month war.
DOJ Launches Russiagate Grand Jury Probe.
Attorney General Pam Bondi has greenlit a grand jury investigation into allegations that top Obama-era intelligence officials conspired to falsely link President Trump to Russia in the 2016 presidential election.
The probe follows a criminal referral from Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, who recently declassified intelligence documents she says were suppressed by deep state actors.
The investigation could target former officials like James Comey, John Brennan, and James Clapper, though no charges have been filed.
Actress Loni Anderson Dies at 79.
Loni Anderson, the blonde bombshell best known for playing Jennifer Marlowe on WKRP in Cincinnati, died Sunday in Los Angeles at age 79 after a prolonged illness, her family confirmed.
A Minnesota native, Anderson earned Emmy and Golden Globe nods for her sharp, savvy take on the iconic role, which helped redefine TV’s portrayal of women in the workplace.
She later became a fixture in made-for-TV movies and remained a pop culture icon well into her later years.
Anderson is survived by her husband, Bob Flick, two children, and four grandchildren.
POLITICS.
Rep. Nancy Mace officially joined the race for South Carolina governor, entering a competitive Republican primary to replace term-limited GOP Gov. Henry McMaster.
The State Department is proposing requiring visa applicants from certain nations to post bonds of up to $15,000 to enter the country.
The Senate began its August recess this weekend, leaving more than 100 nominations to federal positions still pending on its calendar.
A federal judge ruled against a coalition of gun owners, saying that Rhode Island’s gun permit system, which requires residents to show a “need” to carry a firearm openly, doesn’t violate the 2nd Amendment.

And Now, a word from our sponsor, Interactive Romans Road – King James Version.
Go to https:// payhip.com/ Christian NonFiction eBookStore then scroll down and click on Interactive Romans Road – King James 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.
