Massacre in Oregon. 10 died and another 7 injured in horrible attack on a community college in a rural area of Oregon. The suspect is dead. He was shot by police who were responding to reports of shots fired on the campus in Roseburg. The suspect was mentally unstable and had, according to reports, a love of guns. According to witnesses, the shooter demanded to know victims’ religions. If they said they were Christian, they were killed.

The Bahamas are getting slammed right now by Hurricane Joaquin.. now an extremely dangerous category 4 hurricane. There is some good news. The latest computer modeling suggest the storm will move away from the East coast of the United States instead of hitting the coast. There will still be massive flooding rain for areas from the Carolinas to Maine. An east coast rainstorm is already causing flooding in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeastern U.S. That’s before any hurricane impact. Governors in five states have already declared states of emergency. We’ve got Fox team coverage from the Extreme Weather Center.

Philip Rucker and Robert Costa are writing about Hillary Clinton in today’s Washington Post. They say a big political blunder by the likely new House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy could help her overcome the email controversy, “Hillary Rodham Clinton's upcoming appearance before the U.S. House Select Committee on Benghazi was supposed to be a crucible: a chance for Republicans to prosecute the former secretary of state for her handling of the 2012 terrorist attacks that killed four Americans as well as for her use of a private e-mail server. Instead, it may have turned into a political gift for Clinton following this week's suggestion by the likely next House speaker, Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), that the taxpayer-funded Benghazi investigation was politically motivated. Clinton's allies say his comments will help recast Clinton's scheduled Oct. 22 hearing as a partisan inquisition rather than a fact-finding mission about the attacks in Libya.”
