Bend teacher says she was shot before she could act, then feigned death
Becky Drury, an educator who suffered severe injuries during a violent incident at a primary school in Bend, Oregon, revealed that she was shot before she could take action. In remarks shared on Wednesday, Drury explained that she spotted the attacker, rushed back into her classroom, and was fired upon at close range while attempting to block the door. She described how her left hand was nearly severed and her other arm badly damaged. Unable to move or shield others, she feigned death in the hope that the shooter would stop firing.
Authorities report that Griffin J. John II, a 16-year-old former student who was in possession of a shotgun, entered Silver Rail Elementary and fired shots at six individuals. The incident resulted in the death of teacher Megan Lambert, 25, as well as three students, among them a five-year-old named Rhoam Summer. Drury and another child, seven years old, named Saylor Graham, were also injured. A teacher attempted to stop John by hurling a phone at him and then physically subdued him; a parent then shot and killed the teenager. Drury clarified that her version of events did not match some accounts suggesting she had thrown herself over a student for protection, emphasizing the need for an accurate portrayal of her actions. Schools in Bend are starting to resume operations, and the investigation into the shooting is ongoing. Officials confirmed the shotgun involved was acquired through legal means.

Sacha Baron Cohen brings Ali G back in a hoax-driven satire
Sacha Baron Cohen revives Ali G in “Ali G: Who Iz I?”, a follow-up that functions more as a collection of extravagant hoaxes than a continuing narrative. The movie depicts Ali as faded, broke and out of favor. When an old fax machine delivers a proposal from HBO for a new series, he and his pregnant girlfriend, Julie, travel to the United States to pull off pranks. The review notes that the film mocks anti-woke free-speech proponents and cultural appropriation, employing crude, frequently gross-out comedy. Among its targets are well-known individuals, whose names the review keeps confidential.
Two additional figures appear in the film: Erran Morad, a menacing Mossad and IDF officer who has become a U.S. security consultant, and Dr. Nira Cain-N’Degrocello, a self-proclaimed adversary of cultural appropriation. The review notes that the movie’s fictionalized climax employs body doubles and seemingly hidden reshoots, yet it constantly feels the need to clarify which characters are aware of the deception. It finds certain scenes amusing, though contends that the satire doesn’t deliver a significant blow to a high-profile figure like the *Borat* sequel achieved. “Ali G: Who Iz I?” is set for release on October 22 in Australia and October 23 in the U.K. and U.S.

Ilhan Omar says home raid was meant to intimidate her
Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar denied allegations of immigration fraud during an interview with MS Now, her first interview since federal agents searched her home on October 12. Omar said the claims include allegations that she was part of a sham marriage with her brother and fudged details on immigration paperwork. She told host Chris Hayes that rumors about her brother first surfaced on a Somali blog before spreading among right-wing conspiracy theorists in Minneapolis. Omar said she believes the raid was carried out to appease supporters of President Donald Trump.
Omar said about 10 to 15 Homeland Security Investigations agents arrived at 6 a.m. and executed a search warrant. After searching room by room for nearly five hours, they took 17 items, including several phones, she said. Omar said she believes the early arrival was intended to intimidate her. Trump has repeatedly criticized her, and on Tuesday called her “a sick, very dishonest person who hates our country.” Asked whether she could face deportation over alleged misstatements in her paperwork, he said she could be deported or go to jail. Omar said she has a legal right to serve in Congress.
