Michael Shellenberger report: Russia wanted Hillary Clinton for president in 2016, not Donald Trump as Intelligence Community described

The CIA knew Putin favored Clinton for president, but told the opposite story.

Nine firefighters injured in explosion of a CNG-powered semi-truck in the Wilmington neighborhood in the South Bay and Harbor region of Los Angeles

Nine LAFD Firefighters were injured during an explosion, while responding to a vehicle fire in Wilmington. Two of the nine remain in critical condition.
