South LA candidate was charged with stabbing a woman in 1993. She says they're friends
This is expected to be a high-turnout election. It’s better to vote early and avoid the crowds. The period is nearly two weeks long, so it should be easy to find a convenient time to vote. It’s better to wait until Election Day, just in case any last-minute information comes out. It’s more exciting to vote on Election Day, and it’s also more traditional.

Safety first: delivering trans-inclusive care is everyone’s responsibility
Furthermore, the lack of transgender status monitoring can limit the accuracy of our interpretations and calculations regarding medication safety11. To ease this burden, more high-quality education for healthcare professionals oriented to patient safety is needed. This concept can be applied to the use or desired use of hormone therapies in transgender patients. This demonstrates the importance of building an open dialogue in healthcare in the interests of patient-centred safety and care. Ultimately, it is time to recognise that trans-inclusive care is person-centred care, and therefore the outcomes and safety of this population are everyone’s responsibility.

Los Angeles’ $22-billion homelessness problem gives leaders a choice: Double down or change strategies
The city should shift its focus, he said, from supportive housing construction to giving homeless and at-risk Angelenos money to help pay their rent on the private market. She plans to discuss the report next month in the housing and homelessness committee she chairs. That means episodes of homelessness would be rare and brief and anyone who needed a shelter bed could access one. His research indicates that supportive housing projects funded with construction union labor and other mandates cost about $100,000 more per unit than what the housing department is estimating. City officials are recommending a continuation of an apartment construction ban in areas zoned for single-family homes, nearly three-quarters of L.A.’s residential land.

Inside Elon Musk’s plan to trigger a ‘red wave’ for Trump
The billionaire’s super PAC is using an old-school strategy heavy on door-knocking and mail shots — but Musk’s erratic management style has caused problems. It was part of the uniform issued by America PAC, a super PAC formed by billionaire Elon Musk to campaign for former president Donald Trump. Determined Trump supporters like McMillan, who are paid about $20 to $40 an hour, are the backbone of Musk’s plan to elect Trump. This month, America PAC absorbed the staff of another pro-Trump committee in Wisconsin, Turning Point, with the goal of maximizing turnout in the state. She was fired as a result, she said, but shortly after was hired by another America PAC vendor to canvass in Wisconsin and Georgia.

Bob Woodward argues that Trump is ‘far worse than Richard Nixon’
Over the past two weeks, headlines have trumpeted choice bits from Bob Woodward’s new book, “War”: How then-President Donald Trump secretly sent coronavirus test machines to Russian President Vladimir Putin. In Ukraine, Woodward describes a team at peak tactical performance. The Biden team views its subsequent management of the conflict as no less impressive. The keystone of that containment was a crisis in autumn 2022 over the potential use of a Russian nuclear weapon. This book’s prologue is based on a hitherto “lost” tape of a 1989 interview with Trump by Woodward and his Watergate partner, Carl Bernstein.

As solo aging becomes more common, here’s how to thrive on your own
As the population continues to get older, more adults are becoming solo agers during their golden years. “Solo agers have been shown to be as healthy and happy as other older adults and live just as long,” Sara Zeff Geber, PhD., an aging expert and author of “Essential Retirement Planning for Solo Agers,” told Fox News Digital. What is solo aging? Among adults aged 50 or older, approximately 12% of them are considered “solo agers,” according to a 2021 AARP report. Approximately half of solo agers have an advance directive — and only 44% have shared it with their primary care doctor, according to AARP.

NFL’s top brass agree finger-gun celebrations send ‘the wrong messages’
Two examples included Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London performing the move during the team’s win over the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers drawing flags and fines for the move against the Cleveland Browns. We don’t think it’s appropriate in those circumstances and sends the wrong messages. While New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton alleged a discrepancy about what was called and what was not, former NFL star J.J. Watt told Fox News Digital he believed the NFL’s crackdown on the finger-gun celebrations was rightful. CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP“Now, the gun celebrations, that’s clear-cut,” he said.

Trump's Economic Plans Would Actually Worsen Inflation, Experts Warn
While in office, Trump started a trade war with China, imposing high tariffs on most Chinese goods. Peterson’s analysis concluded that inflation, which would otherwise register 1.9% in 2026, would instead jump to between 6% and 9.3% if Trump’s economic proposals were adopted. While in office, Trump started a trade war with China, imposing high tariffs on most Chinese goods. “The Trump tariffs in 2018-19 didn’t have as large an impact as the tariffs were only just over $300 billion in mostly Chinese imports,’’ he said. It attacks high inflation by raising interest rates to restrain borrowing and spending, slow the economy and cool the rate of price increases.
