Another mass shooting in California leaves at least 7 people dead |
| Seven people were dead and a suspect was in custody Tuesday after two shootings at plant nurseries near the Northern California community of Half Moon Bay, just days after a rampage in Southern California killed 11. The San Mateo County Sheriff's Office said four victims were found dead at the first shooting scene and a fifth person was transported to the Stanford Medical Center with life-threatening injuries. Three victims were found at the second scene a short time later. The suspect was employed at Mountain Mushroom Farm, the location of the first shooting, and all evidence points to the attack being an "instance of workplace violence," Sheriff Christina Corpus said Tuesday.

More classified docs found – this time at Pence's house |
| Classified documents were found at Mike Pence's home, representatives for the former vice president wrote to the National Archives in letters this month. This is the latest in a series of discoveries involving classified documents at the homes of current and former elected officials. Pence's lawyer characterized the documents as "a small number of documents bearing classified markings that were inadvertently transported to the personal home of the former vice president at the end of the last administration." The Department of Justice "requested direct possession" of the documents on Jan. 19, and FBI agents went to Pence's home that night to collect the documents from a safe, according to letters from Pence's lawyer.

Doomsday Clock signals world is closest it's been to human-caused catastrophe |
| The world is closer to annihilation than it has ever been since the first nuclear bombs were released at the close of World War II, The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists said Tuesday. The time on the Doomsday Clock moved forward from 100 seconds to midnight to 90 seconds to midnight. Between Russia's nuclear brinkmanship in its war on Ukraine, the real threats of climate change becoming increasingly dire and ongoing concerns about more possible pandemics caused by humans encroaching on formerly wild areas, the Bulletin chose to set the clock to the closest midnight yet.
