THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW. KEEPING AN EYE ON DRIVING CONDITIONS AFTER OVERNIGHT STORMS AND RAIN THIS MORNING A LIVE LOOK. NOW YOU CAN SEE SOME OF THE SIDE STREETS HAVE HAD A LITTLE BIT OF PAWNEE. IT’S JUST WET OUT THERE. SLOW DOWN, GIVE YOURSELF EXTRA TIME AND SPACE. KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI POLICE ARE INVESTIGATING A HOMICIDE. POLICE RESPONDED TO 107TH AND MARSH ABOUT 145 THIS MORNING. WHEN THEY GOT THERE, THEY FOUND A MAN WHO’D BEEN INJURED, SHOT ON THE SIDEWALK. HE DIED AT THE SCENE. DETECTIVES DON’T HAVE ANY INFORMATION RIGHT NOW ON THE SUSPECT. ANYONE WHO SAW ANYTHING, CALL THE CRIME STOPPERS TIPS HOTLINE. THAT’S 816474 TIPS. NAVY IS GONE. THEIR AIR FORCE IS GONE. THEIR MISSILES ARE JUST ABOUT USED UP OR BEATEN. PRESIDENT TRUMP ADDRESSED THE NATION LAST NIGHT DISCUSSING THE IRAN WAR. HE CLAIMS U.S. OPERATIONS ARE ALMOST OVER, SAYING THE U.S. WILL HIT IRAN HARD OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS. BUT HE ALSO FURTHER THREATENED THE COUNTRY AND DIDN’T ADDRESS NEGOTIATIONS OR HIS MONDAY DEADLINE ABOUT OPENING THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ. WE’LL KEEP AN EYE ON IT. MEANWHILE, WE KNOW THE WAR IS SURGING GAS PRICES HERE AT HOME. THE AVERAGE FOR REGULAR IN KANSAS IS NOW UP TO 3.31 GALLON, UP $0.76 FROM A MONTH AGO, 3.46 IN MISSOURI, WHICH IS UP $0.80 A MONTH. WELL, THE SUPREME COURT DOES NOT APPEAR LIKELY TO SIDE WITH THE PRESIDENT ON THE ISSUE OF BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP. JUSTICES LISTEN TO ARGUMENTS FOR TWO HOURS YESTERDAY, TRUMP WAS THERE FOR PART OF THE SESSION. THE PART OF THE SESSION. THE ADMINISTRATION ARGUED THE 14TH AMENDMENT, WHICH PROTECTS BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP, WAS ONLY MEANT TO BENEFIT THE CHILDREN OF FORMER SLAVES. THE PLAINTIFFS ARGUE THAT AXING BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP WOULD CREATE PROBLEMS FOR MILLIONS. THE JUSTICES EXPRESSED SOME SKEPTICISM OVER THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION’S ARGUMENTS IN THIS DECISION IS NOT EXPECTED UNTIL THIS SUMMER. ORACLE IS CUTTING SOME 539 JOBS IN KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI, IN ITS LATEST ROUND OF LAYOFFS NEARLY FOUR YEARS AGO, ORACLE BOUGHT CERNER, WHICH USED TO EMPLOY A 15,000 PEOPLE IN THE METRO. THAT NUMBER HAS NOW BEEN CUT MORE THAN HALF SINCE THEN, TO AROUND 6500 WORKERS. AND THEN YOU HAVE THIS. JOBS LOST IN THESE LAYOFFS ARE MAINLY IN SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT, CUSTOMER SERVICE AND MANAGEMENT. CHECK YOUR FREEZER. REGULATORS ARE ISSUING HEALTH ALERTS ABOUT THESE DINO NUGGETS. THEY WERE SOLD AT WALMART STORES NATIONWIDE. THEY SAY SOME CONTAINED UNSAFE LEVELS OF LEAD. NOW THEY ARE NOT BEING RECALLED BECAUSE WALMART DOESN’T SELL THEM ANYMORE. BUT IF YOU DO HAVE THESE, MAYBE THEY’RE IN YOUR FREEZER SHOULD A BEST BY DATE OF FEBRUARY 10TH, 2027. THROW THEM AWAY.
