Police Respond To Shooting Outside CIA Headquarters

Security guards opened fire on a woman who drove toward the gates of the CIA's headquarters near Washington, D.C. on Thursday, ignoring orders to stop, and she was then taken into custody, according to a person familiar with the matter. The source, speaking on condition of anonymity, said a check of public records showed the suspect, identified as a young U.S. citizen, had a history of driving under the influence. A CIA spokesperson said earlier that security staff "engaged a person" outside the main gates and then arrested the suspect. The spokesperson declined to say whether gunfire struck the suspect. The source familiar with the matter also did not say whether the woman was hit but that she was in stable condition after the incident, which occurred at around 4 a.m. (0800 GMT). NBC News reported earlier that the suspect was shot, citing a person with knowledge of the matter. The woman drove into the main entrance through the outbound lane, and when security guards tried to stop her she evaded them and continued toward the gate, drawing their fire, the source told Reuters. The vehicle never entered the CIA compound, and no security officers were hurt, according to the source. The FBI was investigating the incident, the source said. The CIA closed the main gate at its Langley compound and directed employees to seek alternate routes. The shooting incident came after two Israeli Embassy staffers were killed by a lone gunman in downtown Washington on Wednesday night. The source said there was no sign of a connection between the two incidents. There have been other shootings over the years at or near the CIA compound. In May 2021, a man was shot by the FBI outside CIA headquarters when he got out of his car with a weapon after an hours-long standoff. He later died in hospital and was subsequently identified as Roy Gordon Cole. News reports said he was shot after getting out of his car brandishing a sword and that he had a history of apparent mental illness. In 1993 a Pakistani man angered by CIA involvement in Muslim countries killed two CIA employees outside the agency's headquarters. Mir Aimal Kasi was eventually executed in Virginia in 2002 after being captured by the FBI in Pakistan in 1997.

House Republicans Pass Trump's Big Bill of Tax Breaks and Program Cuts After All-night Session

House Republicans stayed up all night to pass their multitrillion-dollar tax breaks package. Speaker Mike Johnson defied the skeptics within his ranks and muscled President Donald Trump’s priority bill to approval Thursday. Last-minute concessions and a stern warning from Trump appeared to win over the hold outs to salvage what he calls the “big, beautiful bill.” The outcome caps an intense time on Capitol Hill, with days of private negotiations and public committee hearings. Democrats, without the votes to stop Trump’s package, tried to stall it. The Congressional Budget Office says the tax provisions would add $3.8 trillion to federal deficits.

FDA Panel Debates Covid Vaccine Recipe as Questions Swirl About Fall Shots

Government vaccine advisers are meeting to decide if the recipe for COVID-19 vaccines needs updating for this fall and winter. The meeting comes even as a new Trump administration policy has thrown into question whether healthy people younger than 65 will still qualify for a shot — or if vaccines will be limited to seniors and people at high risk from infection. Advisers to the Food and Drug Administration will debate if the virus has mutated enough since last winter to require a tweak to the formula. Thursday’s meeting is the group’s first since President Donald Trump took office in January.

Iran Says it May Take 'Special Measures' to Defend Nuclear Sites from Israel

Iran’s top diplomat has warned that his country would take “special measures” to defend its nuclear facilities if Israel continues to threaten them, raising the stakes further ahead of a new round of talks with the United States. The comments Thursday by Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi offered no specifics on what Tehran would do, but already, international inspectors have seen their access limited to Iran’s program. That’s even as Tehran enriches uranium to 60% purity, a short, technical step away from weapons-grade levels of 90%. The U.S. and Iran are due to meet Friday in Rome.
