Michigan church attacker's military background

Plus, top congressional leaders will meet with Trump as a government shutdown nears.

Today's Top Stories from NBC News MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 2025 In today's newsletter: At least four people were killed after a man drove a vehicle into a Michigan church and opened fire. Top congressional leaders will meet with Trump as a government shutdown looms. And Oregon's governor sues the government after National Guard troops are mobilized to enter Portland.  Here's what to know today. ▼ The Lead At least four killed in Michigan church attack; suspect also dead (Julie J, @Malkowski6April via X / AP) At least four people were killed and several others wounded when authorities say a man opened fire at a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, and set it ablaze in what a federal official called "an act of targeted violence." The gunman drove a vehicle into the church, got out and opened fire with an assault rifle, township Police Chief Bill Renye said. The first officers arrived within 30 seconds of initial reports, and law enforcement killed the shooter in the church's rear parking lot, he said. It's not clear what motivated the shooting, and officials did not disclose whether there was any known connection between the suspect and the church. First responders are in "recovery mode," sifting through debris from the blaze for additional bodies and evidence. Renye said the church is a "total loss" as a result of the fire, and there are some people still unaccounted for. One witness recalled seeing "bodies lying on the sidewalk" in the church parking lot. The suspect was identified as Thomas Jacob Sanford, a 40-year-old former Marine local to the area. His service included a deployment from August 2007 to March 2008 under Operation Iraqi Freedom, according to the Marine Corps. Here's what else we know. Follow the latest on this story on our liveblog. ▼ Top Stories Government shutdown looms ahead of a high-stakes White House meeting President Donald Trump is scheduled to meet with the top four congressional leaders today in a high-stakes sit-down at the White House that could determine whether the federal government shuts down at 12:01 a.m. Wednesday. The Democratic leaders of the House and the Senate, Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer, as well as their Republican counterparts, House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, are expected to attend. Republicans are determined to flex their muscle after they won full control of the government last year, but they still require Democratic support to reach the 60 votes needed to pass their funding bill in the Senate.  Six months ago, Democrats caved in to a GOP-written bill, but they insist that won't happen again unless they have a say in the final legislation. Namely, the party wants to advance health care policy goals, like extending key Obamacare subsidies set to expire in December.  However, Thune vowed the GOP won't negotiate at this time, meaning that unless one party backs down or softens its demands, the U.S. government is on track for a shutdown in less than 48 hours.  Read the full story here.  More politics news: On "Meet the Press," Thune said it's "totally up to the Democrats" whether a shutdown will be avoided and likened the party to hostage-takers who are "hijacking" the process to pursue ideological demands. Meanwhile, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said Congress can still avert a shutdown, but only if Republicans engage in a "serious negotiation" and called the White House meeting "only a first step." New York Mayor Eric Adams announced that he is dropping his third-party bid for re-election, narrowing the field for November's election. Trump will meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House to try and turn rising hopes into a deal to end to Israel's offensive in Gaza and free hostages still held in the devastated Palestinian enclave. Trump sounded optimistic in an exclusive interview with NBC News ahead of the talks. Oregon sues Trump administration to stop deployment of National Guard troops to Portland The state of Oregon and the city of Portland sued the Trump administration to stop it from deploying National Guard troops to Portland. The suit names Trump, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and the Defense Department, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and the Department of Homeland Security as defendants. It asks a federal court in Portland to declare the deployment unlawful. Oregon's Democratic Gov. Tina Kotek said she spoke with the president and told him "there is no insurrection or threat to public safety that necessitates military intervention." In the complaint, the plaintiffs claim Hegseth issued a memorandum Sunday calling 200 members of the Oregon National Guard into federal service. Read the full story here.  Trump speaks with NBC News about gathering with top generals and potential DOJ investigations  Trump confirmed in an interview with NBC News that he plans to attend an unusual meeting organized by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth that will gather hundreds of senior military officers near Washington on Tuesday. "It's really just a very nice meeting talking about how well we're doing militarily," the president said.  Also in the exclusive interview, Trump accused former FBI Director Christopher Wray of "inappropriate" behavior during his tenure and said he "would think" the Justice Department is investigating him.  Wray is the second former FBI director to be recently targeted by the president, after James Comey was indicted last week. Intense showdown between Packers and Cowboys ends in tie Who won the Micah Parsons trade? The answer is still unclear after the Cowboys and Packers ended their "Sunday Night Football" showdown in a 40-40 tie, the second-highest-scoring tied game ever. To start the night, the Dallas offense was so unspectacular that the Cowboys' first points didn't come until the second quarter. But the course of the game changed in seconds when Packers quarterback Jordan Love fumbled, letting Dallas recover and eventually force overtime. In overtime, Green Bay's Brandon McManus kicked a field goal as time expired to tie the game at 40. Dallas still has not beaten the Packers since 2016.  More NFL news:  Puerto Rican artist Bad Bunny will headline the Super Bowl 60 halftime show. In rookie Jaxson Dart's first career start, the New York Giants took out a Super Bowl contender. But the victory came with a cost. Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers was ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game with a knee injury and may miss the rest of this season as well. ▼ Read All About It The trial of a Texas woman with a grim relationship history is set to begin this week in a courtroom near Houston in connection with allegations that she killed her most recent husband with a fatal dose of insulin. Hurricane Humberto continues to churn in the western Atlantic as a major Category 4 storm, while Tropical Depression Nine has strengthened into Tropical Storm Imelda, threatening the Bahamas and potentially parts of the Southeastern U.S. Europe retained the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black, reasserting its dominance over the Americans despite a thrilling final-day comeback by Team USA. ▼ Staff Pick The South Texas town trying to avert a drinking water crisis Cedric Davis has a big job ahead of him. As City Manager of Mathis, Texas, Davis is working to ensure that drinking water continues to flow to the more than 4,300 people who live there. Worsening drought conditions in South Texas are expected to plunge water levels too low to safely extract usable water from Lake Corpus Christi, the primary source of drinking water for Mathis. Current projections suggest that could happen by late December, leaving city officials scrambling to find alternate sources of water. Their proposed solution is to dig two emergency wells to supply drinking water to Mathis when water levels dip too low in Lake Corpus Christi. The struggle in South Texas highlights a growing problem in drought-prone parts of the country — and the world — as climate change alters precipitation patterns, intensifies drought and saps the availability of safe drinking water. The unfortunate reality is that what's happening on the ground in Mathis could play out in other cities and towns in the U.S. in the coming years, making this race against time all too relevant even beyond the Lone Star State. — Denise Chow, science reporter  ▼ NBC Select: Online Shopping, Simplified Prime Big Deal Days is officially happening October 7–8.

Fellow American, You've taken a very important step towards protecting your wealth during the 2024 presidential election. Click this link to claim your 5 Stocks to Survive the Election Chaos. With the help of my proprietary stock-picking system I've isolated the top stocks that could not only survive… but potentially generate huge returns no matter what happens in November. And I have another FREE bonus message in store for you today. By now you're aware some of my largest gains came from finding the very best tech stocks — with the help of my proprietary system. Like when I recommended IBM at just $8 for 25X gain… Apple when it was just $1.49 for a 31,000% gain... and Dell for less than $1 rose upwards of 50,000%. Over one 15-year period my investment fund turned every dollar invested into $41 — an astounding $4,000% return. When my proprietary algorithms went head-to-head with the performance of Warren Buffet and Peter Lynch… It won. Now recently I've been ahead of the AI market… In 2019 I isolated Nvidia and it's up as much as 2,011% since along with gains as high as 1,810% with Super Micro Computer in just a year and half. I'm officially throwing in all my chips because a second boom in AI is about to begin. And it will be a direct result of my shocking Presidential prediction.. I want to make sure you're locked and loaded for earnings. That's why I've put together an additional six AI stocks that could soar come November. The time to prepare is now.

الترحيب بالإفراج عن أمير أميري في أفغانستان

ترجمة مقدمة من وزارة الخارجية الأمريكية الترحيب بالإفراج عن أمير أميري في أفغانستان وزارة الخارجية الأمريكية بيان صحفي وزير الخارجية ماركو روبيو 28 أيلول/سبتمبر 2025 اليوم وبفضل القيادة التي يتولاها الرئيس ترامب والتزامه تجاه الشعب الأمريكي، ترحب الولايات المتحدة بعودة المواطن الأمريكي "أمير أميري" إلى حضن الوطن بعد أن كان محتجزا بشكل تعسفي في أفغانستان. ونعرب عن خالص الامتنان لدولة قطر التي كانت شراكتها القوية وجهودها الدبلوماسية حيوية لضمان الإفراج عن "أميري". وتعكس عودة "أميري" إلى دياره عزم الإدارة الأمريكية التي عززها الأمر التنفيذي الصادر عن الرئيس مؤخرا، والقاضي بحماية المواطنين الأمريكيين من الاعتقال التعسفي في الخارج. وبينما تشكل عملية الإفراج هذه خطوة مهمة إلى الأمام، ما زال ثمة أمريكيين محتجزين بشكل تعسفي في أفغانستان، ولن يهدأ بال الرئيس ترامب قبل أن يعود كافة مواطنينا المعتقلين إلى كنف الوطن. وتمثل عملية الإفراج عن "أميري" اليوم خطوة بارزة تتخذها الإدارة في كابل باتجاه تحقيق هذا الهدف. للاطلاع على النص الأصلي: https://www.state.gov/releases/2025/09/welcoming-the-release-of-amir-amiry-in-afghanistan/ هذه الترجمة هي خدمة مجانية، مع الأخذ بالاعتبار أن النص الانجليزي الأصلي هو النص الرسمي.
