[0:39] This is what you need to know. [0:41] We'll show you the principle credited with stopping a potential school shooting [0:44] and the Artemis astronauts ascribe their fiery re-entry to Earth. [0:48] But first, the big story. [0:50] President Trump is defending his criticism of Pope Leo [0:52] after a public back and forth over the war with Iran. [0:56] President Trump says the Pope is very liberal [0:58] and pushes back on his warnings about the conflict, [1:01] adding he has no intention of apologizing. [1:03] The comments come after Pope Leo repeated his calls for restraint and peace, [1:07] warning against escalation in the Middle East. [1:10] Melissa Don is traveling with the Pope during his 10-day tour of Africa. [1:14] Rachel, an unprecedented feud between President Donald Trump and Pope Leo, [1:19] escalating earlier this week when President Trump criticized the Pope [1:23] and called him weak on crime and terrible on foreign policy. [1:27] Well, hours after, I was on the papal plane for Pope Leo's planned trip to Africa. [1:33] That's when a group of journalists got to meet the pontiff [1:36] and ask him directly what he thought of his reaction to Trump's comments. [1:42] And that's when the world heard that Pope Leo said he, quote, [1:44] does not fear President Trump and he will continue to preach the gospel. [1:49] Since then, Trump has repeatedly spoken out against Pope Leo, [1:52] saying he doesn't owe him an apology. [1:54] Well, the Vatican has made it clear that their focus here [1:57] is on the pontiff's visit to Algeria, Cameroon, Angola, and Equatorial Guinea. [2:03] Well, coming up, Pope Leo continues his papal trip through Africa and Angola. [2:08] The war with Iran is now driving up a looming jet fuel crisis, [2:12] raising fears of higher airfares and potential flight disruptions. [2:16] European officials and energy experts warning the region [2:19] could face significant supply pressure as early as May. [2:22] They say the situation could force airline cuts and possible cancellations [2:26] if global fuel flows don't stabilize anytime soon. [2:29] Trader Joe's has agreed to pay more than $7 million [2:33] settling a class-action lawsuit that accused them [2:36] of putting customers at risk of potential identity theft. [2:39] Sophie Flay has more. [2:41] If you used a credit or debit card at Trader Joe's [2:43] from March to July of 2019, the grocery store chain may owe you money. [2:48] The lawsuit claims that during that period, [2:50] certain locations printed receipts that displayed [2:52] sensitive financial information putting customers at risk. [2:56] Trader Joe's denies the allegations and any wrongdoing [2:59] and says no one has reported identity theft. [3:01] But you don't need to be a victim of identity theft to submit a claim. [3:05] Some eligible customers were sent emails or postcards [3:07] alerting them of the settlement. [3:09] But if you weren't, you may still be eligible. [3:12] Here's how. [3:12] If you made a credit or debit purchase between March 5th and July 19th of 2019 [3:16] and you got a receipt displaying the first six and last four digits of your card, [3:21] you may be eligible. [3:23] Businesses are barred by law from printing more than the last five digits. [3:27] The parties estimate 757,000 unique card numbers are affected. [3:32] The estimated payment is $102.45. [3:35] The actual payout could be less than that with fees and expenses. [3:39] Attorney's fees alone are estimated at nearly $2.5 million. [3:43] Eligible customers can submit a claim online or print out a PDF claim to be sent by mail. [3:48] The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department is investigating sexual assault allegations [3:52] against disgraced former Congressman Eric Swalwell. [3:55] Lana Drews, one of at least six women who have made the allegations, [3:59] accuses Swalwell of assaulting her in a hotel room in 2018, [4:02] claiming that she believes he drugged her drink. [4:05] Swalwell's attorney says he categorically and unequivocally denies those claims, [4:09] calling them false and fabricated. [4:11] Swalwell suspended his campaign for California governor earlier this week. [4:14] Also now leaving Congress, Republican Tony Gonzalez of Texas, who also resigned this week. [4:20] Gonzalez has acknowledged having an affair with a former staffer who later died by suicide in [4:24] September of 2025. He had distanced himself from her death, saying he had not spoken with her [4:29] since June of 2024. Gonzalez announced earlier this year he would not run for re-election, [4:34] but some of his colleagues demanded that he step aside now. [4:37] We turn now to the mystery in the Bahamas. The family of a missing Michigan woman, [4:40] Lynette Hooker, has joined the search for her. [4:43] Nearly two weeks after she disappeared, her daughter and her boyfriend say they were surprised [4:47] to learn that her husband, Brian Hooker, left the islands just days after being released [4:52] from police custody. They questioned that decision after he previously said that he would stay [4:56] until his wife was found. [4:58] We were also wondering and asking why Brian left after he said, [5:03] hey, I'm going to stay here until I find my wife. We're not going to say that he doesn't [5:07] deserve to see his mother before she dies, but we're just saying Carly didn't get that option. [5:12] Carly didn't get the option to see her mother before she died. [5:15] According to Brian Hooker's attorney and family, he left the Bahamas to care for his mother in [5:20] Sacramento. No charges have been filed in this case. New details in the search for Nancy Guthrie, [5:26] 75 days after she was taken. Sources now say the FBI is using new technology to analyze potentially [5:33] critical DNA recovered from Guthrie's home in Tucson. The FBI confirms it received a sample of [5:39] hair from a lab in Florida, which has been working with the sheriff's department. The sheriff has said [5:43] it could take six more months to untangle the sample and isolate what they need. About two dozen [5:49] investigators are still working on this case. Over in sports, the NFL is gearing up for draft night [5:54] on ESPN on Thursday and Michelle Smallman has a preview. Thanks Rachel. As always a ton going on [6:00] in the sports world, but the headliner is the NFL draft. We are less than a week away and there are [6:05] so many storylines that we're paying attention to. Everyone knows that Fernando Mendoza will be the [6:09] number one overall pick by the Las Vegas Raiders. But for me, the two players I'm paying close attention [6:14] to are Notre Dame running back Jeremiah Love and where he ends up possibly in Tennessee with Cam Ward [6:19] and of course, Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson. He's expected to be the second quarterback drafted, [6:24] but no one really knows exactly where he's going to land and how long he'll be sitting [6:28] in the green room on draft night. Coverage of the 2026 NFL draft gets going Thursday, [6:33] 8 p.m. Eastern on ABC ESPN and the ESPN app, as well as ESPN radio. And we have much more of what [6:39] you need to know. Stay with us now to take three, the stories that you'll be talking about this weekend [6:55] and number three need to get some wild boars out of the way. Well, call a robot. [7:00] This viral video shows the robot in Portland's capital city, Warsaw, running after the animals, [7:06] herding them toward a nearby wooden area. Before leaving, the robot even waves goodbye to the [7:11] animals. Wild boars are a common sight in Polish cities where they are often wandering into urban [7:16] areas looking for food. And number two, just about everybody is jumping on the AI bandwagging. [7:22] The sustainable sneaker brand Allbirds is now rebranding as New Bird AI. The company is partnering [7:27] with an unnamed investor for $50 million, pivoting from shoes to AI infrastructure. Critics say the [7:34] move undercuts Allbirds' original mission of environmental protection, pointing to the heavy [7:38] environmental impact of data centers. And number one, federal prosecutors say Santa [7:43] Khan's founder may have landed himself on the naughty list. Prosecutors say that Stefan Piladez [7:49] stole hundreds of thousands of dollars that should have gone to charity. Santa Khan has raised nearly [7:54] three million dollars since the tradition began. Thousands taking over cities around the world each [7:59] year. Prosecutors say he misappropriated ticket sales using the money for lakefront home renovations, [8:05] concert tickets, and vacations. He has pleaded not guilty. Now to some quick hits, other stories that [8:11] we are following this weekend. Video shows a high school principal in Oklahoma taking down a former [8:16] student armed with two guns. Kirk Moore tackled the 20-year-old moments after he entered the school [8:22] last week. Moore was wounded in the leg. He is now recovering. Victor Hawkins was allegedly inspired [8:27] by Columbine and intended to carry out a mass shooting. He has pleaded not guilty. Roblox has [8:34] agreed to a 12 million dollar settlement with the state of Nevada over online safety. The gaming [8:39] platform will add enhanced protections for minors, including new age verification requirements [8:43] and restrictions on nighttime notifications as well as adult content. Roblox says the agreement [8:48] builds on the company's work establishing digital safety standards. And one more thing before you go, [8:53] the Artemis 2 crew is giving us some new insight into what they saw during their voyage to the far [8:59] side of the moon. Mission specialist Christina Koch described to our David Muir their plunge back into [9:04] Earth's atmosphere when their capsule would set temperatures up to 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit. [9:10] And the fireball that we were in got so bright that it was like an arc welder. You almost couldn't even [9:16] look at it. And that rumbling was not something we could have ever practiced on Earth. [9:20] The next mission, Artemis 3, is scheduled for next year with a moon landing in 2028. [9:26] And that is what you need to know. For breaking news and live updates throughout the day, [9:29] check out ABC News streaming on Disney+. A new episode streaming every day on Disney+.
