Another day, another press conference in which the U.S. president insults a female reporter. Recommend deals for you..."We are now at the 'women should smile more' stage of his presidency," says Kimmel.

Rep. Joaquín Castro (D-Texas) and other Democrats have pressed the administration for answers after visiting the facility and learning of the measles cases. They also said detainees have since resumed using shared indoor spaces, with limited time outdoors amid cold weather in South Texas. More than 580 cases — including 17 hospitalizations — have been tallied so far this year, according to CDC data. “I can’t think of a better incubation environment for transmission of measles than a detention facility,” Marrazzo said. Citing privacy laws, the Pinal health department declined to name any federal facility where the measles cases might have originated, and it characterized the risk to the public health as low.
The Washington Post is laying off a third of its workers across all departments, scaling back foreign news coverage and shutting down some sections of the paper. Amid media reports about the planned layoffs, some Washington Post reporters last month sent letters to owner Jeff Bezos pleading with the billionaire and Amazon founder not to cut any jobs. "Don't eliminate our jobs," reporters from the Post's local desk said in their missive to Bezos. "Keep the Washington Post a place that covers Washington." Bezos bought The Washington Post in 2013 for $250 million amid a declining readership and other budgetary challenges.
The Washington Post eliminated its sports department on Wednesday, a process that will include laying off dozens of journalists and bringing to an end a storied section, which for decades boasted a devoted readership around the Washington, D.C. metropolitan region and beyond. The move is part of a much larger swath of cuts across the newsroom and wider Post organization, impacting hundreds of employees. Advertisement“First, we will be closing the Sports department in its current form,” The Post’s executive editor, Matt Murray, told the staff, according to Post columnist Barry Svrluga. Midway through 2025, the Post offered buyouts to the newsroom staff, which resulted in an exodus of talent. With Wednesday’s announcement, there would be no additional buyout offers — only the sudden elimination of a longtime institution for Washington, D.C., sports fans.

Iran has tentatively agreed to resume nuclear talks with the United States as it tries to avert the threat of further military strikes, in what would be the first such negotiations since the Trump administration bombed three of Iran’s nuclear sites last summer. The discussions are expected to be held in Oman, a source familiar with the matter told CNN Tuesday night. Press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters Tuesday that Trump is keeping open the option of military strikes if diplomacy fails.

He recommended starting off slowly, using a separator or spacer only for short periods of time to begin with.

Brands and influencers claim vibration plates promote lymphatic drainage, help with weight loss, improve muscle tone and strength, and reduce bloating. Here’s what to know:Simply standing on a vibration plate isn’t going to do much of anything for your health. According to Welch, most vibration plate studies have been conducted when the plates were used as an exercise accompaniment, such as when someone does push-ups or squats on a vibration plate. When standing on a vibration plate, your muscles do activate and contract to keep you from falling over, Chatman said. Exercising on a vibration plate is fine, but research doesn’t show it’s any more effective than exercising without one.
