I’m absolutely heartbroken to hear this news, and I’m thinking of Bernadette and her loved ones during this incredibly difficult time.
We cannot tolerate political or sexual violence in any form. Those responsible must be held accountable.
Thank you for speaking out, Bernadette. We're with you. phoenixnewtimes.com/news/con…

Comedian and former late-night bandleader Reggie Watts is a proud ketamine enthusiast.
Loved ones of his ex-girlfriend Katherine McCollough claim she became addicted to the drug through Watts’ encouragement to take a heavy array of psychedelics in the name of enlightenment. McCollough died by suicide in March.

Thousands of Americans are getting sick from a foodborne parasite, and federal regulators have still not publicly identified the source.
So what's been happening in the federal government over the past year that might be a factor in this outbreak?

Look, I'm not an oncologist but I am frustrated by the way this dog cancer story is being interpreted from a bunch of different angles and I think basically all of this can be cleared up if people understood like...six things.
You should know these 6 things about cancer:

Reminder: More than a dozen of Epstein's underage victims from Palm Beach got into trouble with the law after they were raped by him. Some fell into drug abuse, and a few even served time in prison. That doesn't mean they were not sexually molested or raped as teenagers. Many abused children fall into this category of having troubled lives after being sexually assaulted.
REMINDER: The woman at the center of these FBI interviews claims she met Epstein at a place he never lived.
Her allegation against President Trump dates back to a year he and Epstein didn't even know each other yet.
And she's been arrested multiple times for theft and fraud-- most recently in 2023 for stealing money from a terminally ill man.

Last week I went to Arizona to take in the media circus surrounding Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance. It left me feeling pretty gross about the true crime ecosystem.

EXCLUSIVE: We uncovered a secret corporate scheme to raise grocery prices.
We found that Instacart is using AI algorithms to charge customers different prices for the same items.
The scary part? It's not just online. It's in physical grocery stores too.
Our months-long investigation with @ConsumerReports and @Groundwork found it could cost families $1200/year.
