9/11/25 Daily News Brief

Here is the News Brief for September 11th, 2025:* Today marks 24 Years since 9/11. Commemorations and moments of silence happened across the United States for the almost 3,000 people who perished that day (and the many 1st responders since then.)* Seven HBCU’s were in lock down today after potential threats. Which…doesn’t really make sense.* Jerry Seinfeld found himself on the wrong side of history again after he suggested ignorantly that people who say “Free Palestine” are worst than the Klu Klux Klan. Interesting* The UK fired their US Ambassador over his connections with Jeffrey Epstein. So, that’s an option?And a recap of our breaking news of the day:* The student who shot two fellow students yesterday has died. * Charlie Kirk’s killer is still on the lose. The FBI released a photo of a person of interest and a 100k reward for helping find the shooter. GPL’s Weekly New NewsletterThose are your headlines for today.
