Ogden man dies in fiery crash with semi-truck near Bliss Idaho
BLISS, Idaho (ABC4) — A 69-year-old Ogden man died in a fiery crash Wednesday after colliding with a semi-truck on I-84 near Bliss, Idaho.
According to Idaho State Police, just after 12:30 p.m. the Ogden man was driving a 2019 Nissan Frontier when he crossed over the highway median. The Nissan then crashed into a semi-truck that was pulling a utility trailer. Both vehicles caught fire following the collision.

The occupants of the semi-truck included a 43-year-old man (driver) from Ozone Park, New York and a 23-year-old man (passenger) from Indianapolis, Indiana. Both occupants of the semi-truck were wearing seatbelts, police say, and were not transported to the hospital. It is unclear if the Ogden man was wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash.
Multiple lanes of I-84 were blocked off for about six hours before reopening as crews cleared the scene. Idaho State Police is currently investigating the cause of the crash.

FDA approves Moderna's new lower-dose COVID-19 vaccine
The U.S. approved a new COVID-19 vaccine made by Moderna late Friday but with limits on who can use it — not a replacement for the company's existing shot, but a second option. The new vaccine, mNexspike, is a step toward next-generation coronavirus vaccines. It's made in a way that allows for a lower dose — a fifth of the dose of its current COVID-19 vaccine, Spikevax — by refining its immune target. The approval 'adds an important new tool to help protect people at high risk of severe disease from COVID-19,' Stephane Bancel, Moderna's CEO, said in a statement Saturday. The Food and Drug Administration approved the new vaccine for use in all adults 65 and older, and for people age 12 to 64 who have a least one health condition that puts them at increased risk from the coronavirus. That's the same limit that the FDA set in licensing another COVID-19 vaccine option from competitor Novavax. Those restrictions are a departure from how the U.S. has handled COVID-19 vaccines until now, reflecting skepticism about vaccines from Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and other Trump officials. Moderna's existing vaccine doesn't face those limits and has long been used for anyone ages 6 months and older. The company said it expected to offer both options this fall. The FDA's approval was based on a study of 11,400 people age 12 and older that compared the new low-dose vaccine with Moderna's existing vaccine. It found the new vaccine was safe and was at least as effective — and more by some measures — than the original shot, the company said. The news came just days after the Trump administration canceled funding for Moderna to develop a vaccine against potential pandemic flu viruses, including the H5N1 bird flu, despite promising early study results. ___ The Associated Press Health and Science Department receives support from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute's Science and Educational Media Group and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.

"If you feel sorry for him, don't feel so sorry, cause he's vicious," Trump continued. "What he did with his political opponent and all of the people that he hurt."

US didn't do enough to stop war in 2014, says former US secretary of state Mike Pompeo
Mike Pompeo, former US secretary of state, believes that the United States did not do enough to stop the war unleashed by Russia and restore peace in Ukraine in 2014. Source: Pompeo during the second Black Sea Security Forum in Odesa, as reported by a correspondent for European Pravda Details: Pompeo said that despite all efforts, US representatives failed to thwart the plans of Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin and prevent a full-scale Russian invasion in 2022. "I regret that there was not more done in 2014, that there was not more done in 2022, and that deterrence was lost," he said. "And now the challenge is putting it back to a place. I was adjacent to the Minsk conversations (...) We've been at the negotiating table an awful lot, and there was no hammer." Pompeo acknowledged that it was "a different time" then and Russia's aggression was not as intense, but he pointed out: "If you went and looked at the debate issue papers from the Minsk conversations, they would look almost identical to the same conversations that are taking place today." "So that must remind us all: when Vladimir Putin lays down his weapons for a moment, you can't go back to Russian gas," Pompeo emphasised. "When Vladimir Putin lays down his weapons for a moment, there can't be life as it once was." He also pointed out that the US cannot afford to abandon Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression. "As for the deeper question about whether [Ukraine] is viewed as a pawn, I don't think that anyone believes that. I don't think anybody thinks, 'Oh my goodness, we can sacrifice that and get peace','' he said. He pointed out that many members of the Republican Party have expressed views on this issue that are contrary to America's deep national interests. "But I think they all also know that, in the end, there is no walking away from this for the United States. It is not the case where you can say, 'Godspeed, you're on your own'. This will continue to chase all of us who believe in basic human dignity, property rights, all the indicia of sovereign nationhood that we will ultimately come to prevail," Pompeo stressed. Background: While Pompeo was serving as US secretary of state, the Crimea Declaration was adopted and released on 25 July 2018, 10 days after the official meeting between Trump (during his first presidential term) and Putin in Helsinki. That document stated that "Russia, through its 2014 invasion of Ukraine and its attempted annexation of Crimea, sought to undermine a bedrock international principle shared by democratic states: that no country can change the borders of another by force". Meanwhile, when Trump returned to power in 2025, his administration repeatedly made controversial remarks about Crimea. In April, media reports indicated that the Trump administration had handed Ukraine a one-page document in Paris, which was presented as a "final proposal" for a peaceful settlement. Among other things, it supposedly stated that the United States was ready to recognise Russia's control over Ukrainian Crimea. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that Kyiv does not recognise the Russian occupation of Crimea, and Trump criticised the statement, claiming that "Crimea was lost years ago" and that Zelenskyy's words are "very harmful to the peace negotiations".
