Senate votes to end COVID-19 emergency in the US
By Ali Zaslav, Phil Mattingly and Manu Raju | CNNThe Senate on Wednesday passed a bill that would end the national Covid-19 emergency declared by then-President Donald Trump on March 13, 2020. The joint resolution, which cleared the House earlier this year, now heads to President Joe Biden’s desk. The vote comes on the heels of two other successful efforts led by Republicans in approving legislation rescinding Biden administration policies. House Democrats largely voted against the bill when it was brought to the floor in February except for 11 Democrats who joined Republicans in support. A separate White House official noted that the Senate vote comes after several weeks when the Biden administration has had time to accelerate its wind-down efforts — and just a little over a month before they’d announced the emergency would end.

Group of swimmers in Hawaii cited for ‘aggressively’ chasing, harassing dolphin pod
KONA, Hawaii (KITV) — A group of over 30 swimmers was cited on the Big Island after being caught chasing after a pod of dolphins at Honaunau Bay over the weekend. Officers with the Department of Land and Natural Resources’ (DLNR) Division of Conservation and Resources Enforcement (DOCARE) issued citations to 33 swimmers for the incident that took place on Sunday. Using a drone, DLNR captured images and video of the swimmers “aggressively pursuing, corralling, and harassing the pod,” officials said. DLNR did not say how much the swimmers were cited or what other possible punishment the group could be facing. This is the second incident in the month of March involving swimmers harassing marine animals on the Big Island.

By Elizabeth Wolfe and Paradise Afshar | CNNHuman remains discovered in Lake Mead in October have been identified as a 39-year-old man who is believed to have drowned in the reservoir nearly five decades ago, officials announced Tuesday. Smith’s remains were uncovered after a diver came across a human bone in Lake Mead’s National Recreation Area’s Callville Bay on October 17, prompting a search by a park dive team that uncovered more skeletal remains. Medical examiners have been working to determine the identities and causes of death of the other remains discovered at the reservoir so far. Erndt’s family said he drowned while going for a late-night swim as the family was boating on the lake with friends. Investigators say the body belongs to a homicide victim who was likely killed and put in the lake in the mid-70’s to early 80’s.

Here's what Fox News was trying to hide in its Dominion lawsuit redactions
The foundational right to a free press is at stake and we will continue to fiercely advocate for the First Amendment in protecting the role of news organizations to cover the news," a Fox spokesperson said in a statement. "Trump insisting on the election being stolen and convincing 25% of Americans was a huge disservice to the country. Bad for business.”The email was originally redacted by Fox News but released publicly Wednesday. A Fox News spokesperson said Wednesday that Scott was not opposing fact-checking itself. “This is not about fact checking — the issue at hand is one host calling out another," the spokesperson said.

Judge to Fox News: Don't make me 'look like an idiot' over Rupert Murdoch testifying
The exchange was the first of several in which the normally impassive Davis warned Fox attorneys to "be careful." Dominion intends to call not just Murdoch but a long list of Fox executives and stars to the stand. Yet Fox attorneys also specifically push back against Dominion's assertion that culpability could extend to the executives and board members of Fox Corp. Fox attorneys confirmed they had, to which Davis later said, "this isn't a game." Fox attorneys had objected to everything because they did not want to waive their right to object in the future.

US home prices fell in January for the 7-straight month
U.S. home prices fell for the seventh month in a row in January, as the Case-Shiller US National Home Price Index is now 3% off its 2022 peak. “2023 began as 2022 had ended, with US home prices falling for the seventh consecutive month,” said Craig Lazzara, managing director at S&P Dow Jones Indices. On a seasonally adjusted basis, U.S. prices fell 0.2% for month and are now only up 3.8% for the year. That battle has caused mortgage rates to spike over the past year, resulting in many home buyers being priced out of purchasing a home. Mortgage rates are expected to be volatile for as long as the Fed has to work to pull back runaway inflation.
