FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) — A late spring snowstorm has started to taper off in Colorado after closing schools, delaying flights and creating slushy conditions for commuters. The storm swept over the Rocky Mountains and into the High Plains on Tuesday. A winter storm warning is in effect through Wednesday afternoon. Some mountain communities received about 2 feet of snow and Boulder got about a foot. Denver International Airport experienced delays and cancellations. Warmer temperatures are expected to return Thursday. Many welcomed the storm, which comes amid a drought.

A U.S. fighter jet on Wednesday fired on an Iranian oil tanker in the Gulf of Oman as it tried to breach the U.S. blockade of Iran’s ports, the U.S. military said. The attack occurred as Iran and the U.S. are officially in a ceasefire and as the two countries seemed to be approaching an agreement to end the war. U.S. President Donald Trump threatened Iran with a new wave of bombing if a deal is not reached that includes opening the critical Strait of Hormuz.

Dr. Sebastian Gorka Discusses The New U.S. Counterterrorism Strategy

Read More...

WASHINGTON, May 6 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump has signed a new national counterterrorism strategy that focuses in part on the "neutralization" of hemispheric threats and incapacitating cartel operations, top White House adviser Sebastian Gorka said on Wednesday. Gorka, the White House counterterrorism director, told reporters Trump signed the document on Tuesday "driven by the principle that America is our homeland and must be protected." The United States has destroyed dozens of boats as part of what Washington has called a counternarcotics campaign linked to an operation that included the ouster of Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro this year. "Our new counterterrorism strategy first prioritizes the neutralization of hemispheric terror threats by incapacitating cartel operations until these groups are incapable of bringing their drugs, their members and their trafficked victims into the United States," Gorka said. Within the U.S., Gorka said the strategy will also focus on identifying and neutralizing what he called "violent, secular political groups whose ideology is anti-American, radically pro gender or anarchist, such as Antifa." "We will use all the tools constitutionally available to us to map them at home, identify their membership, map their ties to international organizations like Antifa, and use law enforcement tools to cripple them operationally before they can maim or kill the innocent," he said. Gorka said U.S. counterterrorism officials will meet with international partners on Friday to ask how allies can increase efforts to combat terrorist threats, especially from Iran and in the Strait of Hormuz. After the assassination in September of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, White House aides called for a coordinated effort against unnamed left-wing groups accused of promoting violence. Gorka said the strategy would also focus on right-wing groups that foment violence. He said the strategy also focuses on maintaining pressure on what he called the global jihadi movement, including the "targeting and destruction" of groups like al Qaeda.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A man accused of firing a gun at law enforcement officers near the Washington Monument this week was following the path of Vice President JD Vance’s motorcade before the shooting. That's according to a court filing Wednesday. A sworn statement from a Secret Service also says the suspect made a vulgar remark about the White House after the confrontation. The affidavit doesn't specify whether investigators believe the suspect, Michael Marx, had a particular target. He's charged with assaulting officers with a dangerous weapon, discharging a firearm during a violent crime and being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition. Court records didn't immediately list the name of a lawyer representing Marx.

The FBI served a search warrant at the office of the Virginia Senate leader's office as part of a corruption investigation. That's according to a person familiar with the matter who was not authorized to discuss an ongoing investigation by name and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity. The search Wednesday at Virginia Sen. L. Louise Lucas’s district office in Portsmouth comes after the Democrat helped lead the state's recent redistricting. The FBI said only that it was conducting a court-authorized search warrant in Portsmouth.

President Donald Trump posted on social media Wednesday that the war with Iran could soon end and oil and natural gas shipments could restart, if Iran accepts the latest White House proposal. And if they don't agree, he says, “the bombing starts.” Axios reported that the one-page memorandum to end the war includes a moratorium on Iranian uranium enrichment, a lifting of U.S. sanctions and the distribution of frozen Iranian funds along with the opening of the Strait of Hormuz for shipping. Trump's post says it's “perhaps a big assumption” that Iran would agree to such terms.
