Erica also revealed a photo of her husband in his casket. Now, following her 30 minute address on X and YouTube, a crowd of hundreds welcomed Erica with shouts of Charlie. So over the last several days, right, this memorial has really quadrupled in size. It's maybe 60 yards long, right? And we've seen thousands of supporters, men, women, young and old. They lay candles, flags, flowers, personal notes.

There'll be a celebration of Kirk's Life on Sunday, September 21, at a State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. The Taliban says they've reached a deal with US envoys about an exchange of prisoners, but the White House isn't commenting yet.
Joel Naito
The Taliban's released photos of what they say are talks between their foreign minister and President Trump's special envoy for hostage response, Adam Boller. They say it's part of an effort to normalize relations between the two countries. But the White House did not comment on the meeting. The Afghani government released a statement saying Bullard confirmed the two sides would undertake an exchange of detainees. And the Taliban also said talks were held on investment opportunities in Afghanistan. The negotiations came after the Taliban criticized Trump's travel ban that bars Afghans from entering the U.S. joel Naito, Fox News.

This was supposed to be a routine traffic stop. ICE officers were aiming to arrest 37 year old Silverio Villegas Gonzalez in Franklin Park, Illinois. Per DHS, Villegas Gonzalez is in the country illegally and has a history of reckless driving, but they say instead of cooperating, he tried to escape, driving two officers, hitting one of them and dragging him a significant distance. The officer shot the suspect, killing him. DHS launched Operation Midway Blitz in the Chicago area this week, which they say targets those who are in the country illegally and have criminal records. The city had also been bracing for a deployment of the National Guard after President Trump threatened to send them in response to the city's crime rates.
