1 person is Dead after Fatal Multi-Vehicle Crash on I-270 Southwest in Columbus

1 person has died following a multi-vehicle crash in southwest Columbus early Monday morning.

According to authorities, the crash occurred at approximately 2:41 a.m. along Interstate 270 South near Georgesville Road. Officers responding to the scene confirmed that one individual was pronounced dead, while another was transported to a nearby hospital in critical condition.

Investigators with the Columbus Division of Police reported that the incident began as two adults were attempting to change a tire on a minivan parked on the left shoulder of the interstate. A separate sedan was positioned about 50 feet behind the minivan, with a woman seated inside.

At the same time, a driver operating an Audi A4 reportedly lost control of the vehicle. The car veered off the roadway, collided with the rear of the sedan, and forced it into the minivan.

The driver of the sedan, identified as 45-year-old Jodi Tackett, was pronounced dead at the scene. One of the individuals assisting with the tire change was also struck during the crash and remains in critical condition.

Police say the Audi had been traveling in the wrong direction on the interstate before the driver corrected course shortly before the crash. Following the collision, the driver allegedly attempted to flee but was apprehended a short distance away on Georgesville Square Drive.

Interstate 270 South was shut down for several hours during the investigation and reopened around 7:15 a.m.

Authorities have not yet released the name of the suspect as the investigation remains ongoing.

US and Iran Fail to Reach Peace Agreement After 21 Hours of Talks in Pakistan

U.S. Vice President JD Vance announced on Sunday that 21 hours of peace negotiations held in Pakistan between the United States and Iran ended without a deal to stop the ongoing conflict. The outcome leaves uncertainty over what will happen once the current two-week ceasefire expires.

Speaking at a brief press conference in Islamabad, Vance stated that Iran had declined to agree to the proposed terms, though he noted that discussions could still continue.

“They have chosen not to accept our terms,” Vance said, emphasizing that the U.S. has presented what he described as its “final and best offer.” He added that the next move now depends on whether Iran decides to accept the proposal.

I-71 Shut Down following Fiery Crash in Delaware County

Both northbound and southbound lanes of Interstate 71 were closed Saturday evening after a severe multi-vehicle accident at the US-36/SR-37 interchange.

The crash occurred around 6:27 p.m. and involved a total of 12 vehicles, including a semi-truck, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol. Authorities reported that the collision led to a fire at the scene, intensifying the situation and prompting a full closure of the interstate.

Emergency responders transported three individuals to nearby hospitals. Their conditions have not yet been released.

A witness, Carissa Shaw, described the incident as shocking and chaotic. She recalled seeing a semi-truck traveling northbound collide with multiple vehicles before veering toward the median.

“I watched the semi crashing into cars and heading toward the median beside me. Flames suddenly erupted into the air,” Shaw said. “It felt surreal, like everything was happening in slow motion. People rushed to help a red car near me, but the driver’s side was completely crushed.”

The Ohio Department of Transportation is advising motorists to avoid the area and use alternate routes as crews continue to manage the aftermath of the crash.

Ohio Parents raise concern as Trump Budget Proposal Targets School Funding Cuts

Ohio Parents raise concern as Trump Budget Proposal Targets School Funding Cuts

Parents across Ohio are raising concerns after President Donald Trump unveiled a proposed federal budget that includes significant cuts to education funding, potentially impacting schools throughout the state.

The proposed 2027 budget outlines increased spending on defense while reducing funding for several education programs. Although the plan is expected to undergo major revisions before final approval by Congress, many Ohio families say the initial proposal is alarming.

For the second consecutive year, Trump’s budget suggests scaling back federal support for public schools. The proposal includes an estimated $8.5 million reduction in education funding, affecting areas such as teacher professional development, programs for English learners, rural school support, and student services. According to the proposal, the cuts are aimed at eliminating funding tied to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives and undocumented immigration-related programs.

In response, advocacy group Parents United for Public Schools has launched a petition urging Ohio’s congressional delegation to oppose the cuts and protect school funding. The petition has already gathered hundreds of signatures.

“At a time when many districts are already navigating financial uncertainty, federal support is more critical than ever,” the group said in a statement, warning that schools could be forced to reduce staff, cut programs, or seek additional local funding if the proposed cuts move forward.

The budget also introduces a new $2 billion initiative known as the Make Education Great Again (MEGA) grants. This program would consolidate multiple K-12 funding streams under the U.S. Department of Education into a single block grant, part of a broader effort to reduce the department’s role at the federal level.

Trump argues the changes would streamline funding and reduce bureaucracy, allowing states greater flexibility in how education dollars are spent. However, some Ohio parents worry that less federal oversight could create inconsistencies in education quality and access.

Eric Swalwell Faces Sexual Assault Allegations

Eric Swalwell faces sexual assault allegations as top Democrats withdraw endorsements, staff resign, and pressure mounts in California governor race.

Eric Swalwell Faces Sexual Assault Allegations

California Congressman Eric Swalwell is under intense political pressure as he faces sexual assault allegations that have shaken his campaign for governor and triggered a wave of resignations and withdrawn endorsements.

The growing controversy escalated Friday when key Democratic allies, including Adam Schiff and Ruben Gallego, publicly withdrew their support. Within the campaign, Jimmy Gomez stepped down from his role as campaign chair, citing the seriousness of the accusations.

Senior adviser Courtni Pugh also resigned, stating she left immediately after learning more details about the allegations. She noted uncertainty about how many additional staff members may have also exited the campaign.

An independent group supporting Swalwell, Californians for a Fighter, announced it was suspending all campaign operations. At the same time, the Democratic fundraising platform ActBlue halted donations tied to his campaign.

Prominent Democratic leaders have responded cautiously but firmly. Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi reportedly urged Swalwell to withdraw from the race. California Governor Gavin Newsom described the allegations as “deeply troubling,” while House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries emphasized the need for a full and thorough investigation.

The situation stems from accounts by four women who accuse Swalwell of misconduct, including inappropriate messages, unsolicited explicit content, unwanted physical contact, and in one case, rape. A former staffer alleges she was sexually assaulted while intoxicated—claims Swalwell has strongly denied.

Another woman said she had minimal recollection of events after becoming intoxicated during a night out with the congressman, adding that he allegedly kissed her and touched her without consent. Social media creator Ally Sammarco also accused Swalwell of sending unsolicited explicit messages after an initial online interaction.

Swalwell has denied all allegations, calling them false and politically motivated. He stated that he intends to defend himself and, if necessary, pursue legal action.

“As I have for nearly two decades in public service, I will stand by the truth and defend my record,” Swalwell said, adding that his immediate focus is on his family.

The controversy comes at a critical moment in California’s gubernatorial race, just weeks before voters begin casting ballots in the nonpartisan primary. The race includes several high-profile Democrats and leading Republican candidates, with only the top two advancing to the general election.

Opponents have increasingly called for Swalwell to step aside. Among them, businessman and activist Tom Steyer said the congressman should resign from both the race and his congressional position.

As Eric Swalwell faces sexual assault allegations, the political fallout continues to intensify, raising broader questions about leadership, accountability, and the future of his campaign.

US and Iran set for Ceasefire Talks

US and Iran set for Ceasefire Talks

Negotiations between Iran and the US (United States) are preparing for high-level talks as a fragile ceasefire holds. Israel and Hezbollah continued exchanging fire on Friday, and Iran maintained control over the critical Strait of Hormuz.

Ohio Bill to Ban Marriage for Under 18

Several unresolved issues threaten both the current truce and broader efforts to secure a lasting peace agreement.

Iran’s semiofficial Tasnim news agency, which has close ties to the Revolutionary Guard, stated that planned talks on Saturday could be canceled unless Israel halts its military operations in Lebanon. Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump criticized Iran for restricting maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a key route that once was used to transport 20% of global oil trade.

Kuwait also reported a drone attack on Thursday night, attributing it to Iran and allied militias. Although Iran’s Revolutionary Guard denied involvement, it has previously conducted similar operations without claiming responsibility.

Despite these tensions, diplomatic efforts appear to be progressing. U.S. Vice President JD Vance is traveling to Pakistan ahead of the talks, expressing cautious optimism about the negotiations. He emphasized that the U.S. remains open to dialogue if Iran engages in good faith, while warning against attempts to undermine the process.

At the same time, separate negotiations between Israel and Lebanon are expected to begin next week in Washington. Israel has clarified that its ceasefire with Iran does not extend to Hezbollah, which has continued its involvement in the conflict.

Recent Israeli airstrikes in Beirut resulted in significant casualties, marking one of the deadliest days in Lebanon since the conflict began. In response, Trump urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to scale back military operations.

Iranian officials have warned that continued Israeli attacks on Hezbollah could trigger strong retaliation. Netanyahu, however, has indicated readiness to begin talks with Lebanon aimed at disarming Hezbollah and normalizing relations.

On the ground, Lebanese civilians are grappling with the aftermath of the violence, salvaging belongings from destroyed homes while mourning widespread losses.

Meanwhile, Iran’s control of the Strait of Hormuz continues to disrupt global markets. Oil prices have surged sharply, with Brent crude rising more than 30% since the conflict began. Ship traffic through the strait has dropped dramatically, exacerbating economic uncertainty.

Energy officials warn that hundreds of oil tankers remain stalled, awaiting safe passage through the waterway. Trump has publicly criticized Iran for limiting access, accusing it of violating prior understandings.

Uncertainty also surrounds Iran’s nuclear program, a central issue in the conflict. The United States and Israel aim to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons, while Iran maintains that its nuclear activities are for peaceful purposes.

Iranian officials insist that preserving their right to enrich uranium is essential in any negotiations. Meanwhile, the human toll continues to rise, with thousands reported dead across Iran, Lebanon, Israel, and neighboring regions.

Ohio Bill to Ban Marriage for Under 18

An Ohio bill aims to ban marriage for anyone under 18, removing existing exceptions and drawing support from advocacy groups and survivors.

Ohio Bill to Ban Marriage for Under 18

Ohio lawmakers are considering new legislation that would prohibit marriage for anyone under the age of 18, removing current exceptions that allow some 17-year-olds to marry.

The proposal, Senate Bill 341, was introduced by Bill DeMora and Louis Blessing III. If passed, the bill would establish 18 as the minimum legal age for marriage in all cases across the state.

Under current Ohio law, 17-year-olds may marry if they complete premarital counseling, receive approval from a juvenile court, and meet specific legal conditions. The proposed legislation would eliminate these provisions entirely.

During a recent hearing at the Statehouse, dozens of supporters testified in favor of the bill. Advocacy groups, including Unchained at Last, argued that allowing minors to marry can expose them to significant risks.

Executive Director Fraidy Reiss told lawmakers that minors in marriages often face legal and financial barriers, particularly when trying to leave abusive situations. She noted that individuals under 18 may struggle to access legal representation, file for divorce, or seek shelter services.

Supporters also included individuals who said they experienced child marriage firsthand. Testimony highlighted challenges such as financial dependency, limited access to support systems, and long-term personal impacts.

According to data presented during the hearing, thousands of minors have entered into marriage in Ohio over the past two decades, with some cases occurring under current legal provisions.

Michele Hanash of the AHA Foundation said minors may be particularly vulnerable to coercion or pressure, making it difficult to refuse or exit a marriage.

If approved, Ohio would join a growing number of states that have set 18 as the minimum marriage age without exceptions.

The bill is expected to undergo additional hearings, where opponents will have the opportunity to present their views.

Democrats Push to Limit Trump’s War Powers on Iran

House Democrats plan to push a resolution limiting President Trump’s war powers on Iran during a pro forma session, despite expected Republican opposition.

Democrats Push to Limit Trump’s War Powers on Iran

House Democrats are preparing to push a resolution aimed at limiting President Donald Trump’s authority to conduct military operations in Iran.

Hakeem Jeffries announced the plan in a letter to colleagues, stating that Democrats will attempt to pass the measure by unanimous consent during a pro forma House session scheduled for Thursday.

Jeffries criticized the administration’s handling of the conflict and a recently announced ceasefire, arguing that a short-term pause is not sufficient to address broader concerns.

The resolution, introduced by Greg Meeks, seeks to require congressional approval before further military action is taken against Iran.

Republican leadership is expected to block the unanimous consent request, making passage during the session unlikely.

2 Killed in Head-On Crash in Ross County, Ohio

2 people were killed in a head-on crash Wednesday afternoon on U.S. Route 23 in southern Ohio, according to authorities.

The Ohio State Highway Patrol reported that the crash occurred around 12:27 p.m. in the area covered by its Chillicothe post.

Investigators say a 2010 Chevrolet Silverado, driven by Dave Boggs, 76, of Waverly, was traveling in the wrong direction in the southbound lanes when it collided head-on with a 2008 Chevrolet Uplander.

The second vehicle was driven by Jason Day, 39, of Chillicothe.

Both drivers were pronounced dead at the scene. Authorities confirmed that no passengers were involved in the crash.

Officials have not yet determined why the Silverado was traveling the wrong way at the time of the collision.

The crash remains under investigation.

Trump Warns of 50% Tariffs on Countries Supplying Military Weapons to Iran

President Donald Trump warns countries supplying weapons to Iran will face 50% tariffs, as a fragile ceasefire deal raises questions about long-term peace.

Trump Warns of 50% Tariffs on Countries Supplying Military Weapons to Iran

President Donald Trump on Wednesday warned that any country providing military weapons to Iran could face steep economic consequences, including a 50% tariff on goods exported to the United States.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump stated that the tariffs would apply immediately and without exceptions to any nation supporting Iran militarily.

The warning comes shortly after a tentative ceasefire agreement was reached between the United States and Iran. The deal, which includes a two-week window for finalization, is expected to take effect if Iran agrees to fully reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

The ceasefire follows heightened tensions, including recent threats from Trump, who had warned of severe consequences if an agreement was not reached. The breakthrough reportedly came after discussions involving Shehbaz Sharif and Asim Munir.

Trump announced the agreement shortly before a self-imposed deadline, stating that U.S. military objectives had been met and that progress toward a broader peace deal in the Middle East was underway.

However, details surrounding those objectives remain unclear, and questions persist about what conditions must be fulfilled to ensure a lasting resolution.

From the outset, Trump has maintained that preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons is a top priority, though Iranian officials have not publicly confirmed alignment on that position.

According to Trump, Iran has submitted a 10-point proposal that he described as “workable.” The proposal reportedly includes reopening the Strait of Hormuz, security assurances against further attacks, lifting sanctions, and reducing regional conflict.

While Trump expressed optimism that most key issues have been resolved, he noted that the two-week period is intended to finalize the agreement.

The situation remains fluid as negotiations continue and both sides work toward a potential long-term settlement.
