  1. Retired Navy Capt. Royce Williams, 100, received the Medal of Honor on Feb. 24 for his heroic actions in 1952 when he shot down four Soviet MiGs during a 35-minute dogfight, an aerial feat never achieved previously or since. In November 2017, an American Legion Magazine story first reported Williams’ achievement after he was sworn to secrecy for more than a half century. Williams, a member of American Legion Post 416 in Encinitas, Calif., is the oldest recipient to ever wear the medal. He was a special guest of President Trump during the State of the Union address, sitting next to first lady Melania Trump, who placed the medal around his neck. “Heroic American aviator, Navy fighter pilot Royce Williams served in World War II, Korea and Vietnam, flying more than 220 missions,” Trump said. “In 1952, Royce was in the dogfight of a lifetime. His squadron was ambushed by seven Soviet fighter planes. And despite being massively outnumbered and outgunned, Royce led the takedown of four enemy jets and almost destroyed the others. Vanquishing his adversaries while taking 263 bullets to his own plane. His story was secret for over 50 years. He didn't even tell his wife. But tonight, at 100 years old, this brave Navy captain is finally getting the recognition he deserves.” more at https://www.legion.org/information-center/news/honor/2026/february/legionnaire-royce-williams-receives-medal-of-honor

The Secret Service said the incident occurred around 1:30 a.m. when the suspect made an "unauthorized entry" at the property. The individual was observed near the north gate carrying what appeared to be a shotgun and a fuel can. more at https://www.foxnews.com/politics/armed-man-shot-killed-after-unauthorized-entry-mar-a-lago-secret-service
  9. A software engineer’s earnest effort to steer his new DJI robot vacuum with a video game controller inadvertently granted him a sneak peak into thousands of people’s homes. While building his own remote-control app, Sammy Azdoufal reportedly used an AI coding assistant to help reverse-engineer how the robot communicated with DJI’s remote cloud servers. But he soon discovered that the same credentials that allowed him to see and control his own device also provided access to live camera feeds, microphone audio, maps, and status data from nearly 7,000 other vacuums across 24 countries. The backend security bug effectively exposed an army of internet-connected robots that, in the wrong hands, could have turned into surveillance tools, all without their owners ever knowing. more at https://www.popsci.com/technology/robot-vacuum-army/
  10. OpenAI, the maker of ChatGPT, said Friday it considered alerting Canadian police in 2025 about the online activities of the suspect in one of the worst school shootings in the country’s history. The San Francisco tech company said it identified the account of Jesse Van Rootselaar in June via abuse detection efforts for “furtherance of violent activities.” It considered whether to refer the teenager’s account to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, but ruled that it did not meet the threshold for referal to law enforcement. Instead, it banned the account for violating its usage policy. OpenAI said the threshold for referring a user to law enforcement is whether the case involves an imminent and credible risk of serious physical harm to others. The company said it did not identify credible or imminent planning. more at https://ca.news.yahoo.com/openai-employees-raised-alarm-mass-141710377.html

  12. Serial Immigration Fraudster Working as a Minnesota Corrections Officer Arrested MINNEAPOLIS — U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services’ Operation Twin Shield is yielding yet more results with the arrest of a Minnesota correctional officer and AWOL National Guard member masquerading as a U.S. citizen despite having no legal status in the United States. The serial fraudster was identified as part of the major enforcement operation that targeted suspected immigration fraud in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area last fall. Through the joint efforts of Department of Homeland Security agencies USCIS and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Morris Brown, a 45-year-old illegal alien from Liberia, was arrested Jan. 15 in Minneapolis by ICE for multiple violations of U.S. immigration law, including overstaying his student visa and making false claims to U.S. citizenship. Brown last entered the U.S. in 2014 on a non-immigrant student visa that was terminated in 2015 because he failed to enroll in a full course of study. Despite not having legal status, he joined the Pennsylvania Army National Guard in 2014 but went AWOL the next year. He was ultimately apprehended and discharged from the military under other than honorable conditions in 2022. more at https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/news-releases/serial-immigration-fraudster-working-as-a-minnesota-corrections-officer-arrested
