MVP!” chants, pumping their fists.“You know that (I) told (you) that I don’t want to stay (for the) parade,” Jokic said, “but I (expletive) want to stay (for the) parade.”The crowd, which stretched all the way across Civic Center to the Colorado State Capitol, roared.“This is amazing,” the two-time NBA MVP continued. “We’re all gonna remember this our whole life.”The short speech from the famously modest basketball savant capped a delirious day in downtow...Denver medical examiner IDs two men fatally shot in I-25 road rage incident

Violet Evelyn Alberts was found dead in Montecito on May 27, 2022. Local outlets reported that the elderly woman was smothered to death in her own home, with her one-time lawyer saying she struggled and put up a fight.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott has claimed responsibility for a busload of migrants that arrived at Union Station in Los Angeles on Wednesday. In a statement, Abbott said small border towns in the Lone Star State “remain overwhelmed and overrun” with people crossing into the country illegally from Mexico and that many of them are hoping to make it to L.A. “Los Angeles is a major city that migrants seek to go to, particularly now that its city leaders approved its self-declared sanctuary city status. Our border communities are on the frontlines of President Biden’s border crisis, and Texas will continue providing this much-needed relief until he steps up to do his job and secure the border,” the governor’s statement read in part.
