• Authorities hunting for the perpetrator of the deadly mass shooting at Brown University are sifting hundreds of tips and taking DNA swabs after releasing a new photo, “enhanced” videos and a video timeline of a person of interest in the hours before Saturday’s attack. The suspect is “approximately 5’8” with a stocky build,” said the FBI, which announced a $50,000 reward. • An early focus on a different person of interest, now cleared in the probe, may have delayed the investigation by up to a day. And limited school security camera footage around the building at the edge of campus where the attack unfolded has spurred questions, including from the White House. • The shooting left two students dead and nine injured at the Ivy League school in Providence, Rhode Island, where classes and exams are canceled. The campus remains on edge, and the governor ordered a sweeping review of its safety measures. At least 75 school shootings have happened this year in the United States. FBI investigators are again walking and examining the area around the Barus & Holley building on Brown University’s campus, where the deadly shooting occurred Saturday. The area being searched has a security camera mounted on a building just a few feet away. Investigators were seen visually scanning the ground and putting on what appeared to be black nitrile gloves to examine the area.

Trump orders ‘total and complete blockade’ of sanctioned oil tankers coming to and leaving Venezuela
President Donald Trump said Tuesday he was ordering a “total and complete blockade” of sanctioned oil tankers coming to and leaving from Venezuela, ratcheting up pressure against leader Nicolás Maduro’s regime and suggesting an economic motive to the US’ military campaign in the region.

President Donald Trump is expected to sign an executive order Thursday that would reschedule marijuana to a lower drug classification — a move that would ease federal restrictions, though it would not mean full legalization, according to a source familiar with the planning and a senior White House official.
