Here's this happening today in America. President fired tornadoes in Tennessee, reinstated to X and Cosmix, new locations. That's all coming up.
Starting point is 00:00:22 Then Bill's going to be here with your message of the day. But first, the president of the University of Pennsylvania and Ivy League School has resigned in shame. This comes after her congressional testimony where she could not say that students calling for the genocide of Jews would fall under Penn's harassment policy. One donor pulled back a $100 million donation until she got fired. That'll do it. During the hearing, Congresswoman Stephanie asked the president of Penn, does saying the genocide of Jews violate Penn's code of conduct? And she said, if the speech turns into conduct, it can be harassment. Yes. If they commit genocide, then that's a violation of the rules.
Starting point is 00:01:05 Severe storms and tornadoes ripping through Middle Tennessee on Saturday sent 60 to the hospital and six people confirmed dead. One of the deaths was a two-year-old child. She lived in a mobile home park and the storm rolled another mobile home on top of the one she lived in. That mobile home and a seven- and a 10-year-old living inside. They have non-life-threatening injuries. This storm was two years to the day When a record 41 tornadoes Went through Tennessee and Kentucky

Starting point is 00:02:19 and they sell over-the-top customized coffee drinks, like Starbucks, but even more over-the-top, popping pear slush, churro, Frape, s'mores cold brew, sour cherry energy burst, tropical spice aid, stuff like that. Why can't they just do this in their regular McDonald's? It's too complicated. A triple shot, chai, frape burst, just slow down every other order. The name comes from a McDonald's character from the 80s who's like half alien, half robot.
