Michelle Obama says she’s back in therapy as she begins her “transition” to the “next phase” of her life.
I’m not kidding; that’s exactly what People magazine is reporting.
According to the article, during a recent appearance on Jay Shetty’s "On Purpose" podcast, Obama opened up about her current focus on mental health. She revealed that after years in the spotlight — including eight in the White House as first lady — she’s now turning to therapy to help guide her through this personal transition.
“At this phase of my life, I’m in therapy right now because I’m transitioning, you know?” Michelle said, according to the magazine. “I’m 60 years old,

Former first lady Jill Biden landed a new gig at a California-based think tank following her departure from public life.
The Milken Institute announced late last month that it launched a new women’s health network and Biden would serve as its chair.
“A renowned champion for women’s health, Dr. Biden will play an important role in galvanizing participation, collaboration, and shared action in the Women’s Health Network to improve women’s health and wellbeing,” the statement announcing the initiative said. “This appointment follows Dr. Biden’s leadership on the White House Initiative on Women’s Health Research, a first-of-its-kind effort that fundamentally changed how our nation approaches and funds research on women’s health.”

Habemus papam — we have a pope, and progressive Catholics will likely be pleased. And for the first time ever, the pope is an American.
Cardinal Robert Prevost, now Leo XIV, is an American who also has Peruvian citizenship. He was a favorite of the late Pope Francis but has often kept a fairly low public profile, meaning that while his tendencies indicate a less traditional and strictly doctrinal perspective, his likely actions as pope have yet to be clearly predicted. But his first speech ominously seemed much in line with progressive rhetoric.
It is unfortunate that the new pope was a favorite of the late Pope Francis, who prioritized leftist politics

New York City previously tore down a historic Thomas Jefferson statue only to now erect a 12-foot bronze statue of an "overweight black woman," which many blasted as “tasteless” and more.[Snip] Times Square called the “pose of the woman’s body and ease of her stance” in the statue a “subtle nod to Michelangelo’s David” and that it “confronts preconceived notions of identity and representation.” It was comments like how the statue provides a “stark contrast" to the two current Times Square statues of “white men” on pedestals that got social media users upset.

Governor Tim Walz (D-MN) said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “The Briefing” that President Donald Trump will wear a military uniform soon because he was taking the United States toward authoritarianism.
Host Jen Psaki said, “Let me ask you, you said something in the New Yorker in March I thought was really interesting. I mean, you said we should prepare for the worst case scenario. I think many of us feel that way. We’re just over 100 days in, and I guess, are we in the worst case scenario right now or what are you exactly preparing for as governor?”
Walz said, “No I think it gets worse.

The pharmaceutical industry estimates President Donald Trump’s new drug pricing proposal could cost drug companies as much as $1 trillion over a decade, its largest trade group is telling members of Congress.
The idea, first floated last week by the White House as a way to help pay for the president’s tax cut plan, blindsided the pharmaceutical industry and has prompted a furious lobbying campaign. Specifically, the White House asked House Republicans to tie prices for medicines in the Medicaid program to lower prices foreign countries pay,

The Jeffrey Epstein saga may be years in the unfolding. There are hundreds of people involved, perps and victims; some very fancy folks have been implicated, and there is the matter of protecting the victims' privacy to take into account. But the public also has a right to know what happened, and the Epstein files should be released as soon as the victims' considerations are taken into account.
In a press briefing published on C-SPAN, Attorney General Pam Bondi stated that the FBI is reviewing those files now.

Three GOP members of Congress are demanding answers as to why Judge James Boasberg, Chief Justice of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, keeps getting assigned to cases having to do with President Donald Trump.

Wild viral footage has captured Frontier Airlines gate agents getting into a bust-up with a passenger who had sniped, “I’m never flying this sh—y airline again” after being hit with an unexpected $25 fee just to check in.
The caught-on-camera saga erupted when the male passenger — a 45-year-old married father of three — was trying to check in for his Frontier flight from Raleigh, NC, to Boston last Friday after a week-long business trip.
The passenger, who didn’t want to be identified, told The Post he’d arrived at the airport with roughly 50 minutes to spare but wasn’t able to check in on the electronic kiosk because,

White smoke billowed from the chimney of the Sistine Chapel and the great bells of St. Peter's Basilica rang out on Thursday, signaling that a new pope—the 267th leader of the Catholic Church—had been chosen on just the second day of the conclave. At precisely 6:07 p.m., local time, the smoke rose into the late afternoon sky, sparking an emotional eruption from the tens of thousands gathered in St. Peter's Square. Cheers rang out as priests made the sign of the cross, nuns wept, and the crowd shouted in unison, "Viva il papa!" Flags from across the globe waved above the masses as they anxiously awaited the identity
Comments:
Yet another outrage. Why should a murderer be rewarded for his crimes? The best thing that could happen in such cases is for the family of the victim to file a lawsuit for wrongful death and attach these funds to pay the eventual damages awarded. That way, the perpetrator would not benefit from his crime and the victim's family would receive some compensation for their loss.
