A magnitude 5.7 earthquake struck a rural part of Nevada east of the state's capital of Carson City on Monday. According to Associated Press the temblor hit just before 6:30 p.m. local time, the U.S. Geological Survey said. It was centered 12.9 miles east of the town of Silver Springs at a depth of 3.1 miles. Video shot in the town of Fallon showed shattered glass and food scattered on the floor in the aisles of a grocery store. It was a similar scene in Silver Springs, where soap spilled on a store floor. The USGS said some residents in nearby communities reported strong to very strong shaking and light to moderate damage. Silver Springs resident Tyra Fuller said she thought her house was going to come off the foundation. “It was like literally the house was bouncing up and down. It was, I’m from Southern Cal. We get rollers down there for the most part. This wasn’t a roller. This was a bounce,” she said.

A magnitude 5.7 earthquake struck a rural part of Nevada east of the state's capital of Carson City
on Monday. According to Associated Press the temblor hit just before 6.30 p.m. local time,
the U.S. Geological Survey said. It was centered 12.9 miles east of the town of Silver Springs at
a depth of 3.1 miles. Video shot in the town of Falun showed shattered glass and food scattered
on the floor in the aisles of a grocery store. It was a similar scene in Silver Springs where
soap spilled on a store floor. The USGS said some residents in nearby communities reported
strong to very strong shaking and light to moderate damage. Silver Springs resident Tyra
Fuller said she thought her house was going to come off the foundation. It was like literally
the house was bouncing up and down. It was, I'm from Southern Cal. We get rollers down there for
the most part. This wasn't a roller. This was a bounce, she said. It was pretty bad. I thought
the house was going to bounce off the foundation. I was actually on the toilet while it was going on.
The only thing I lost was I have some, they're like ceramic ravens. They fell off the grandfather's
clock. It was rocking pretty bad. All my teacups and my gargoyles didn't fall off because I had
it's museum wax. How long would you say it lasted for? Over 20 seconds. Have you guys ever had
earthquakes out here before? I think the biggest ones that we've ever really felt is like a two
and that was like five years ago. So this was a complete shock. It caught you off guard, huh? Oh
yeah, it did. It was literally the house was bouncing up and down. It was, I'm from originally
from Southern Cal and we get rollers down there for the most part. This wasn't a roller. This was
a bounce. Hungarian voters have ousted long-serving Prime Minister Viktor Orban after 16 years in
power, rejecting the authoritarian policies and global far-right movement that he embodied in
favor of a pro-European challenger in a bombshell election result with global repercussions.
According to Associated Press, it was a stunning blow for Orban, a close ally of both US President
Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, who quickly conceded defeat after what
he called a painful election result on Sunday night. Election victor Peter Magyar, a former
Orban loyalist who campaigned against corruption and on everyday issues like health care and public
transport, has pledged to rebuild Hungary's relationships with the European Union and NATO,
ties that frayed under Orban. European leaders quickly congratulated Magyar.
His victory was expected to transform political dynamics within the EU, where Orban had appended
the bloc by frequently vetoing key decisions, prompting concerns he sought to break it up from
the inside. It will also reverberate among far-right movements around the world, which
have viewed Orban as a beacon for how nationalist populism can be used to wage culture wars and
leverage state power to undermine opponents. There are scenes of jubilation in the streets
of Budapest, Hungary's capital tonight, after Prime Minister Viktor Orban's Fidesz party lost
a pivotal election that brings an end to his 16 years in power.
Orban's party lost to his opponent, the center-right PISA party and its leader Peter Magyar.
It brings an end to 16 years of rule by Orban, in which he has cozied up to far-right movements
around the world, has undermined EU unity on many important issues, including on support for
Ukraine and its war against Russia, and has become a darling of populist nationalist movements,
not only in Europe but also in the United States.
Adherence to President Donald Trump's Make America Great Again movement have looked to
Orban as a guiding light for how to use populist policies to wage culture wars and to use the
force of the state to undermine its opponents. But Orban's stunning loss in this election tonight
is sure to take the wind out of the sails of a lot of these nationalist populist movements
and will have great great implications not just here in Europe but around the world.
Tisza and Hungary won this election.
Not a little, but a lot.
In fact, a lot, a lot.
Together we changed Orban's system.
Together we liberated Hungary.
We took our country back.
Thank you, thank you.
Without you, this would not have been possible.
Our victory is not from the moon, but from every Hungarian window.
I serve, and I will serve until the nation benefits from it.
I will do what I can.
God bless Hungary.
God bless every Hungarian.
