1 “KKK 'neighborhood watch' leaflets left at homes”

2 Residents of a Potter County borough have found "Neighborhood Watch" leaflets allegedly left in their yards by the Ku Klux Klan. The notifications arrived in Coudersport, Pa., a community of 2,500 in the northwestern part of the state, over the weekend. "Are there troubles in your neighborhood? Contact the Traditionalist American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan today," a flier inside baggies along with rocks and lollipops read. "You can sleep tonight knowing the Klan is awake," it stated. There was a photo of a hood-covered figure and an American flag. “Our goal is to turn Pennsylvania into a stronghold of white supremacy,” National Socialist Movement of Pennsylvania leader Steve Bowers told The Era at the time. Police said they were aware of the incident in Coudersport and they have an idea who may be responsible. Beyond a possible littering charge, there is little the police can do since the act is covered under the First Amendment, PennLive reported. A Facebook page to "combat the advancement of white supremacist groups in our communities" has been set up.

3 In Other News Former President George H.W. Bush said Monday that he will vote for Hillary Clinton in November, according to sources close to the 41st President -- an extraordinary rebuke of his own party's nominee. The sources said this was not the first time Bush had disclosed his intention to vote for Clinton. There's another new messaging app out today, but this one's worth a download. While Facebook has been working to integrate bots with Messenger, Google went ahead and built a messaging app around the most useful bot there is: Google search. Allo, which was announced in May but is now available for download, marries Google search with many of the fun features people have grown accustomed to using in other apps. There's group chatting, stickers and the option to let messages expire. The big thing that's missing is the ability to make video and audio calls, which was intentional. One pilot died and another was injured Tuesday when an Air Force U-2 Dragon Lady crashed shortly after takeoff in northern California. The U-2 Dragon Lady provides high-altitude, all-weather surveillance and reconnaissance, day or night, in direct support of U.S. and allied forces. The crash occurred about 9:05 a.m. north of Sacramento in Sutter County. The aircraft had been on a training mission.
