Yemen War Plans Leaked in Chat | 23andMe
(March 25, 2025)
Trump Administration accidentally included reporter in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling. With the release of its fourth and final round of color-coded hazard maps this morning, California’s firefighting agency is showing just how much of the state is prone to wildfire — and how much that computationally-modeled danger zone has grown since the state issued its last round of local hazard maps more than a decade ago. A federal judge refused Monday to withdraw his block on President Donald Trump’s deportation flights of alleged members of Venezuela’s crime gang Tren de Araragua under the Alien Enemies Act. If you’re one of the 15 million people who shared your DNA with 23andMe, it’s time to delete your data.

Los Angeles Fires Fallout | Tesla’s All-Night Diner
(March 24, 2025)
Chris Merrill fills in for Bill this week. As some Eaton residents are running out of money to stay in temporary housing, they are returning to their unsafe living conditions The Internal Revenue Service is nearing an agreement to allow immigration officials to use tax data to confirm the names and addresses of people suspected of being in the country illegally, according to four people familiar with the matter, culminating weeks of negotiations over using the tax system to support President Donald Trump’s mass deportation campaign. An opening date has not been announced, but Tesla’s all-night diner, theater and charging station is clearly on its way. Which means that the company’s leader, Elon Musk, is about to enter the hospitality business. American women have never been this resigned to staying single. They are responding to major demographic shifts, including huge and growing gender gaps in economic and educational attainment, political affiliation and beliefs about what a family should look like.

Texas Measles Victim's Parents Stand By Decision | Door Dash Layaway
(March 25, 2025)
Chris Merrill fills in for Bill this week. The parents of the one person in Texas who has died during the current measles outbreak are standing by their decision not to vaccinate their late daughter or her four siblings. In an interview posted on the website of the Children’s Health Defense, the un-named mother and father insisted that measles is “good for the body” by reinforcing its defenses. President Donald Trump kicked off the process of dismantling the Department of Education by signing an executive order on Thursday. Under the proposal, initiated by council President Marqueece Harris-Dawson, audience members could be removed from meetings — or banned from attending future ones — for repeatedly uttering the racial slur known as the N-word or the sexist vulgarity known as the C-word. Buy-now-pay-later loans are often used to spread out interest-free payments for expensive purchases such as smartphones, furniture or appliances. Now hungry consumers can add another option to that list: food.
