Bobby Allen：TikTok内部文件显示，该应用具有高度成瘾性，其宣称的青少年保护措施无效。文件揭示了TikTok算法的成瘾性，以及公司对用户吸引力、屏幕时间的操纵。这些信息对正在进行的诉讼具有重大影响，可能证明TikTok误导公众并隐瞒其研究结果。
Greg Allen：飓风米尔顿的破坏程度小于预期，因为其路径和强度变化导致风暴潮减弱。虽然部分地区遭受严重破坏，但总体损失小于预期。佛罗里达州部分地区暴雨导致洪涝，一些房屋被淹。
Jeff Brumfield：SpaceX的星舰火箭发射台位于野生动物保护区，发射过程中的大量水污染了周边湿地。SpaceX未获得排放许可证，违反了《清洁水法》，并被处以罚款。发射过程中使用的水与火箭废气接触后不再是饮用水，含有对环境有害的物质。
