A bizarre “Jim Carrey clone” conspiracy erupted online after his César Awards appearance, fueled by a decades‑old decoy clip and a drag artist’s joking Instagram post claiming to impersonate him.  In reality, Carrey was genuinely at the ceremony with family, and rumors spiraled only because some fans thought he looked “different” in footage from the event.  A California flying‑EV startup has become the latest casualty of the state’s tech downturn, laying off 80% of its workforce as funding dries up and production stalls.  The company’s collapse adds to a growing wave of job cuts hitting futuristic transportation firms struggling to turn bold concepts into sustainable businesses.  Reese’s founder’s grandson says some newer Reese’s products no longer contain real milk chocolate or peanut butter, calling them “gross and waxy” and made mostly of vegetable oils.  Hershey denies changing the classic Peanut Butter

The Wall Street Journal reports that the U.S. is racing to cripple Iran’s missile and drone capabilities before American forces run out of key interceptor munitions — a concern top Pentagon officials warned President Trump about before the operation began. The U.S. has been burning through air‑defense missiles at an accelerated pace, with repeated Iranian retaliatory barrages threatening to exhaust regional stockpiles. Replenishment is slow, production is limited, and officials say the U.S. could face a dangerous shortage within days if the tempo continues.  Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the U.S. currently has no troops on the ground in Iran, but pointedly refused to rule out deploying them, declaring the U.S. will go “as far as we need to go” to neutralize Iran’s military and nuclear capabilities.  Three polls conducted on the initial U.S. attack on Iran find the American public largely unsupportive of the strikes in the Middle East.

Jurors in Georgia have begun deliberating the case of Colin Gray, the father of the 14‑year‑old accused of killing two students and two teachers in the 2024 Apalachee High School shooting. Gray is charged with second‑degree murder, involuntary manslaughter, and multiple cruelty‑to‑children counts, with prosecutors arguing he gave his son the rifle used in the attack despite clear warnings about the teen’s deteriorating mental state.  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---  Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ  | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon | - Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem faced bipartisan heat in the Senate as lawmakers blasted her handling of the DHS shutdown and the fatal shootings of two U.S. citizens by immigration officers. Senators pressed her on calling the victims “domestic terrorists” — a claim contradicted by video — and questioned her management of Trump’s mass‑deportation agenda.  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---  Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ  | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon | - Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Texas’ Senate primary is razor‑thin. GOP Sen. John Cornyn is battling Ken Paxton and Wesley Hunt as he tries to avoid a historic primary loss, while Democrats Jasmine Crockett and James Talarico fight for a rare shot at flipping a statewide seat. Both parties see high stakes and both races could head to runoffs.  A new photo of President Donald Trump sparked online buzz after he appeared at a Medal of Honor ceremony with a bright red rash stretching down his neck. The White House doctor says it’s just irritation from a “common preventative skin cream,” with redness expected to last weeks but offered no explanation of what the treatment is for. The moment adds to ongoing attention over Trump’s hand bruising and leg swelling, previously blamed on daily aspirin use and chronic venous insufficiency.

Rene Campos, a registered sex offender running for Fresno’s District 7 council seat, says he won’t drop out despite a push by councilmembers to craft legislation blocking candidates like him from serving.

A Dutch museum has confirmed a newly rediscovered Rembrandt, thanks to a microscopic study that uncovered the artist’s signature touch a single, tiny brushstroke hidden like a “needle in a haystack.” The 17th‑century portrait had been misattributed for years, but experts now say it is unquestionably the work of the Dutch master.  New research suggests popular GLP‑1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy may slightly increase the risk of osteoporosis and gout, according to an analysis of more than 146,000 adults with obesity and Type 2 diabetes. About 4% of GLP‑1 users developed osteoporosis vs. just over 3% of non‑users a 30% higher risk and gout rates were also modestly higher. Researchers say rapid weight loss and reduced nutrient intake may play a role, though the findings are not yet peer‑reviewed.

Tourettes Action CEO Emma McNally was unambiguous in her thoughts on SNL, turning on capslock in her email to Deadline: “THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.” She continued: “Mocking a disability is never acceptable.

Fresno Assemblymember Joaquin Arambula is back from a six‑week absence and pushing SB 1422, a bill to restore Medi‑Cal for undocumented adults after California froze the program amid a $10 billion deficit.

The alert was issued on Saturday, a day before a gunman opened fire in Austin, Texas, and authorities are investigating whether or not the suspect was inspired by the situation overseas.  The US military has not confirmed how or where the soldiers were killed. It comes after Trump warned “American heroes may be lost” as the US and Israel unleashed mass strikes on Iran – sparking retaliation from Tehran. He said: “The lives of courageous American heroes may be lost and we may have casualties, that often happens in war.  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---  Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ  | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon | - Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram  See omnystudi

Federal prosecutors in New York signaled in a letter to the court Friday that they would not appeal a judge's decision that removed the death penalty from consideration in the case against Luigi Mangione. This means the federal trial is expected to begin this fall with jury selection in September.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Israeli and U.S. military intelligence had long watched and waited for a rare opportunity: senior political and military leaders in Iran holding a meeting—where they could all be killed at once.  Fresno’s Iranian-American community said the past 48 hours signal positive change to Iran’s future. Demonstrators brought signs, flags and a speaker to listen and dance to music in River Park on Sunday. Local Iranians were out in full force demonstrating along Blackstone and Nees avenues. It was all in support of regime change in Iran, and the United States’ involvement in taking out Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

Georgia police are urging parents to double‑check their kids’ lunch boxes after a student accidentally showed up to school with a canned lemon martini instead of a juice pouch. South Fulton Police shared a photo of the Cutwater cocktail, 11% alcohol, joking, “That is NOT Apple Juice,” while reminding families that morning mix‑ups can happen but alcohol doesn’t belong next to a Lunchable. Animal advocates took to the podium at Tuesday's Board of Supervisors meeting to oppose the proposed ordinance banning feeding stray animals in public parks and county buildings.  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---  Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ  | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon | - Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Fac

The FCC is targeting soaring NFL and sports streaming costs, warning that fans are being forced to juggle multiple paid platforms just to watch their teams. The agency has launched a public inquiry into whether exclusive streaming deals are hurting consumers and undermining free, over‑the‑air access with some fans now paying thousands a year amid a fragmented sports media landscape.  Parents will receive notifications if a child has used the platform repeatedly to search for terms related to suicide or self-harm, but users must opt in to get them.

Fresno Councilmember Annalisa Perea says she’ll introduce legislation to block registered sex offenders from running for city office, after Fresno resident Rene Campos, who is on the sex offender registry, announced plans to run for the District 7 council seat. State law currently allows registered offenders to run, but Perea and several colleagues say the rules must change.  Two crashes in one week at Fresno’s infamous Friant & Shepherd intersection, where red‑light running is a chronic problem, have renewed calls for safety improvements. Neighbors say they’ve long avoided the intersection, and the city now plans $2.5 million in upgrades, including moving back a visibility‑blocking wall and redesigning the right‑turn lane to reduce confusion.  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---  Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi

The Department of Defense accidentally shot down a Customs and Border Protection drone near El Paso after mistaking it for a threat, triggering an FAA airspace restriction over Fort Hancock through June. In a joint statement, the Pentagon, CBP, and FAA said the drone was “seemingly threatening,” while congressional Democrats blasted the incident as proof of poor coordination between federal agencies.  The Supreme Court is taking up a major Second Amendment case that challenges the federal ban on gun ownership for marijuana users, a 60‑year‑old law that affects millions of legal medical cannabis patients. Critics, including former Pennsylvania DA Rob Greene, argue the ban is outdated and unconstitutional, while the Trump administration defends it as a key public‑safety measure. The justices will now decide whether cannabis users deserve a carve‑out in federal firearms law.

Fresno Unified trustees tabled a resolution that would have formally opposed the city’s SEDA (Southeast Development Area) plan, voting 4–3 to set it aside after a tense, hours‑long meeting. Board President Veva Islas blasted the plan as harmful to Fresno Unified and even warned Mayor Jerry Dyer that “threats from the mayor do not deter me,” while other trustees argued the issue falls outside the school board’s jurisdiction.  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---  Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ  | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon | - Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
