‘Door kick challenge' goes viral—but cops say the TikTok trend could lead to serious injury
Ding dong ditching has resurfaced as the 'door kick challenge.' But this time it could lead to criminal charges and potentially deadly consequences. In Florida this week, five minors were caught on camera participating in the challenge. Instead of simply knocking and running, footage shows one individual approaching a front door, kicking it repeatedly, then firing an airsoft gun before fleeing the scene, according to Fox News. Earlier this month in DeBary, near Orlando, two teenagers faced felony burglary charges after taking part in the trend. Doorbell footage captured them sneaking up to a house, forcefully kicking the door until the wood splintered, then running away. When questioned by police, one teen reportedly said they were 'just being dumb,' per the Daily Mail. Similar incidents have been reported in Pennsylvania, Texas, Louisiana, Michigan, and Georgia. Police departments across these states are warning both teens and their parents about the risks involved in the challenge. Not only is it illegal, but it also raises the risk of violent confrontations between residents and those taking part. Last month, the Fleetwood Police Department in Pennsylvania issued a warning that 'While 'ding dong ditch' has been a hallmark for decades of kids who were looking to have a little mischievous fun, today's youth have taken things to a more serious level by kicking at doors and ultimately causing damage.' The Fort Worth Police Department in Texas released a similar statement in May. 'It is imperative that individuals partaking in this trend understand that even if no burglary or theft occur, this behavior is illegal and considered vandalism and can lead to criminal charges. More critically, it can be mistaken as an attempted break-in, potentially prompting dangerous or defensive responses from homeowners,' the department wrote. Hot off the heels of the recent #ChromebookChallenge, police are urging parents 'to speak with their children about the risks and consequences of participating in trends like this,' emphasizing that 'what may seem like a prank can result in very real trouble and/or danger.'

House Subpoenas Maxwell as WSJ Reports Trump in Epstein Files
A Republican-led House committee subpoenaed convicted sex offender and Jeffrey Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell to testify before Congress next month just minutes before the Wall Street Journal reported that Justice Department officials informed President Donald Trump that his name appears in documents related to the case. The Oversight committee's deposition is set in the subpoena to occur on Aug. 11 at the Federal Correctional Institution Tallahassee, where Maxwell is being held.

Attorney General Told Trump His Name Appeared in Epstein Files
Attorney General Pam Bondi informed President Trump in the spring that his name appeared in the Jeffrey Epstein files, according to people with knowledge of the exchange. The disclosure came as part of a broader briefing on the re-examination of the case by F.B.I. agents and prosecutors. It was made by Ms. Bondi during a meeting that also included the deputy attorney general, Todd Blanche, and covered a variety of topics. Ms. Bondi frequently meets with Mr. Trump to brief him on various matters, officials said. Ms. Bondi and Mr. Blanche informed the president that his name, as well as those of other high-profile figures, came up in their re-examination of documents connected to the case that had not previously been made public. Mr. Trump, a friend of the disgraced financier, has already appeared in documents related to the investigation. Appearing at the White House in February, Ms. Bondi distributed a series of binders about the Epstein files with the phone numbers of the president's former wife and his daughter in them. 'As part of our routine briefing, we made the president aware of the findings,' Ms. Bondi and Mr. Blanche wrote in a statement in response to questions about the briefing. 'Nothing in the files warranted further investigation or prosecution.' Steven Cheung, the White House communications director, would not address questions about the briefing, but called any suggestion that Mr. Trump was engaged in wrongdoing related to Mr. Epstein 'fake news' and said Mr. Trump ejected Mr. Epstein from his club, Mar-a-Lago, for 'being a creep.' Department officials have regularly informed some White House officials about developments in the inquiry. Such communications are permissible under the law. The conversation was reported earlier by The Wall St. Journal. One person close to Mr. Trump, who spoke only on the condition of anonymity, said that White House officials were not concerned about the latest disclosures given that Mr. Trump's name appeared in the first round of information that Ms. Bondi released.
