Today's UPDATES

Before we start Today's Updates, I would very much like to express my feelings towards the two incidents in America last week. Starting with the "suspicious packages" addressed to CNN headquarters in New York and various Democratic Party politicians, investors and celebrities in the country; they were all sent to fourteen people in this exact order. George Soros, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Eric Holder, Maxine Waters, John O. Brennan, Joe Biden, Robert De Niro, James Clapper, Cory Booker, Kamala Harris, and Tom Steyer, they all had pipe bombs addressed to them in the mail and even though they were actual improvised explosive devices,none of them did any sort damage much less served their purpose in taking an innocent life away. The suspect was arrested in Florida and taken into custody of the FBI who treating the investigation as domestic terrorism. His actions were great enough to put him away in prison for the rest of his life, and as we learned more about this man's history, no one can believe what drove this man to make such an "act of terror" in America. He has a long criminal history which dates back to 1991, when he was apprehended by the authorities, they discovered that he has a white van with is widows covered with multiple stickers including flags, images of "liberal figures framed in crosshairs", and posters supporting the current US President .This man is a registered Republican and a supporter of the President that would often times post pro-Trump and anti-liberal messages and memes on social media, which is all more than enough to prove how dangerous the President since he wore into office. Just when it seemed like we were going to spend Saturday yesterday hearing about the #MAGABomber, the news breaks out about a mass shooting at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh, and in this story, people actually die. Authorities have reported that eleven fatalities were involved along with six wounded people, four of them were police officers, and  before opening fire, the gunman repeated shouted "All Jews Must Die". That makes it more than enough as a hate crime against the jewish community, but to look on the bright side, thank god they captured the "sorry excuse for a human being" and he was soon place into custody for his heinous attack. The thing that makes both of these incident so disgusting is how the president has responded, and while he may sound like he is completely saddened by them, it's not enough what people around the United States are feeling at this very moment. I don't usually get too critical with issues as big as this, but after many many mass shootings and with the Midterms coming in nine days, this seems like the right time to do so, and I would demanded that the President to take his D*CK out of the F*CKING CLOUDS and simply ACT LIKE HE ACTUALLY GIVES A DAMN! People are dying by guns and explosives over broken minds of those who would unleashed terror upon the country for almost no reason at all, and if he really knew how the country has gotten since he was sworn into office, he would know that American has enough and people he has criticized, including the mainstream media are not the ones to be blame for it. To all of America, I demand that we all band together on November 6th and go to the polls to put a crack in the armor of the Trump Presidency which could later turn into something more greater than we have ever seen in these United States of America.

It's not all easy to say these personal words out loud, but when need you to break character and get more serious with what's happening, timing it everything. So I as I try to pick myself up from this pit of despair, I am relieved that there's so much other stuff to talk about today other than only terrorism, like the World Series. It's time for another installment of the Max Sports rundown, the last two games of the 2018 World Series have been a real thriller, Game 3 lasted 18 innings, stretched about seven hours and twenty minutes, and ended about 3:30AM Eastern/12:30AM Pacific. The West Coast Dodgers scratched and clawed their way to win that excausting game on Friday Night/Saturday Morning 3-2 over the East Coast Red Sox. However, exhaustion took a heavy toll on one of these teams last night in Game 4, there would be no scoring until the sixth inning when the Dodgers had the bases loaded and broke out with Cody Bellinger's ground out into a fielder's choice which caused so much confusion it ended up as the first run of the game. But then, the Dodgers had two men on base and a 1-0 lead in the sixth, and Yasiel Puig hit a three run home run to left making it a 4-0 Dodgers lead. In the last three innings of the Game, the Red Sox mad one heck of a comeback, kicking off in the seventh as Mitch Moreland hut a three-run homer of his own to get the Sox with one run. It was 4-3 Dodgers in the eighth before Steve Pearce hit a solo homer to tie the game at 4, and in the ninth inning, Brock Holt got himself a double and was driven in by a single by Rafael Devers to give the Sox a 5-4 lead, a couple of moments later, they would have the bases loaded for themselves. Pearce hit a double to deep right center, clearing everyone off the bases and all the way home and out the Sox up 8-4, and not long after that Xander Bogaerts would drive in Pearce with a single. With the Dodgers down by five runs, the ymade to mount a very big comeback with so much on the line, Kiké Hernández hit a two-run homer in the bottom of ninth to cut the lead to three, but it wasn't enough for the Dodge and they would lose 9-6 in Game 4. So tonight, it's All or Nothing for the Dodge in Game 5, they will have Clayton Kershaw as the starting pitcher while the Red Sox will have David Price on the mound for them, and if these baseball games aren't entertaining enough for you, check out what's to come today in the NFL, NBA, NHL, and the first all-women's wrestling Pay-Per-View, WWE Evolution.

Moving on, it's always good to find a story that will at least make you happy in these difficult times in America, and last week I certainly found one. For today's #TwitterTrend, we are going to discuss what went down in a special Black Panther screening which was held in order for the critically acclaimed Marvel Studios to be nominated for the Oscars. Sirius XM reporter Erick Weber attended said special screening and was able to run into Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige who a gave a few updates on the status of several projects in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, including Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. He said that GOTG Vol. 3 is on hold as it looks for a new director after the firing of James Gunn by Disney, and production on the film has been delayed between 2020 and 2021. The first ever trailer for Avengers 4 trailer will be, as Fiege best put it, released "before the end of the year [2018]." So in my estimation, it could mean that what we might see the mysterious trailer during the winter holiday season and it would a make a great Christmas present for Marvel Fans everywhere. Plus, Fiege went on to say that a fan-favorite Marvel character could appear in the future of the MCU, and that would be Namor, however the rights to this character are currently being held by Universal Pictures just as the Hulk is, so it's going to be real interesting to what they have planned, we have been hearing plans for a Black Widow in production very soon, and after the leaks from Avengers 4 in the past few weeks, anything seems possible. I'll be sure to keep track of these stories later on in the last months of the year, but we wait for more updates, here's a group of tweets which give #KlicKNet viewers other people's thoughts on this piece of news from Kevin Feige.

Nine days remain until the 2018 Midterm Elections commence and early voting has already begun in some states in America. Starting tomorrow, The Daily Show with Trevor Noah is four shows at The Fillmore Miami Beach at the Jackie Gleason Theater in Miami Beach, Florida, the World's Fakest News Team will do their best in covering the Midterms one week before they start. Florida, by the way, is one of many battleground states in this year's elections and there's no telling where in the state that The Daily Show team will be, but if some viewers are looking for some political satire fun right now, then check out what Netflix has. The new variety talk show Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj is set for official release today on the global streaming service and Hasan promised a different take on news topics from the perspective of an Indian-American, who knows if we will talk about the Midterms. On the other hand, I know a few people who will, and they're in this new political Web Choice playlist featuring many news medias breaking down what is at stake in nine days on November 6th.
