As the World Cup kicks off today, the Trump administration says blame Europe if Ebola spreads further.

**SPEAKER_8** (1:39)
The number one priority of our foreign policy is to protect the American people. We cannot and will not allow any cases of Ebola to enter the United States.

The problem with the SPLC is that it's trying to shut down debate in the public square. And there are numerous examples of the SPLC, including not just with law enforcement, but also major corporate actors, to do exactly that.

A brutal stabbing attack by an asylum seeker has sparked protests and riots in Northern Ireland leading to a lockdown in Belfast and schools and shops shuttering.

Joining us now with the details of this disturbing attack and the growing backlash to it is Bev Turner, host of The Late Show Live on GB News. Bev, welcome back to the show.

**Bev Turner** (3:10)
Thanks, John. It's the same. It's a shame, isn't it, that the story is just so depressing, so dark, so horrifying actually.

**John Bickley** (3:18)
Yeah, the video footage of this really alarming, kind of hard to believe it's real. What happened and who was involved?

**Bev Turner** (3:26)
So, the island of Ireland, of course, composes of Northern Ireland, which belongs to the British. It's the British government. It's part of the United Kingdom. We got the Republic of Ireland in the South. And we understand that the perpetrator of this, a Sudanese man, came from Sudan in 2023 as an asylum seeker. Now, the Republic of Ireland remains in the EU. So he came from France, he came to the Republic, and then he just walked on through to Northern Ireland. And we know that about 10.3 in the evening in Belfast, he attacked this guy, Stephen Ogilvie, we know his name is, we think he's in his 30s.
Very badly hurt.
He's lost an eye. We understand terrible stabbings to his face and neck. And there are reports that he's a vulnerable man, that he maybe has some learning needs himself, and that he was living in the same apartment block as the guy that carried out the atrocity. And as we've said, there were locals who came and got the guy off and hit him and hit him and hit him with this hurling stick, which is a piece of sports equipment, until the police arrived. They really are heroic.

**John Bickley** (4:35)
Now, one of the most alarming things about this case is it appears that the attacker was trying to behead his victim. Is that correct?
