To see if I was the only oddball with no microwave, I conducted an informal survey of friends on Facebook. The lack of convenience foods means I had to learn to cook differently (or maybe I just had to learn to cook), by buying ingredients and preparing meals. “Food tastes better when it is not heated in the microwave,” said Deborah Schwartz Cunningham, whose microwave broke a few years ago and wasn’t replaced.

Gavin Newsom calls Trump's anti-DEI agendas anti-Black Getty ImagesCalifornia governor Gavin Newsom ripped into US president Donald Trump’s administration on Saturday, saying the MAGA agenda is “literally putting America in reverse.”“I can’t take what’s going on. Every single day, every single hour, and it’s not even about Dems versus Republicans, it’s about this country and what we stand for,” Newsom said on All the Smoke podcast. The president has called such initiatives “dangerous, demeaning and immoral,” going so far as to blame DEI for airline crashes. It’s about who we are.”“I feel like, anytime you want to make it harder to vote, that means you can’t stand and win with your policy,” Barnes argued. I can write an op-ed and express concern about our country, or we can step up,” Newsom said.

Adam Brody as Noah and Kristen Bell as Joanne in season two of Nobody Wants This ERIN SIMKIN/NETFLIXNobody Wants This, one of Netflix’s biggest new shows of 2024, recently returned for its much-hyped second season. Well, here’s what we know right now about the future of the Emmy-nominated series…Will there be a season 3 of Nobody Wants This on Netflix? So far, Netflix has remained tight-lipped about whether there are more episodes of Nobody Wants This on the cards for the time being. In fact, Kristen even told Parade magazine that the show’s “writer’s room is working right now”, even though Netflix is yet to commission Nobody Wants This for another season. But in some ways, I’m more interested in the less obvious and the creativity of the writers’ room.

The charges against James were brought after the president first publicly demanded U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi pursue James as well as other longtime Trump critics, including former FBI Director James Comey and Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.). AdvertisementNew York Attorney General Letitia James (D) speaks outside the Walter E.

This money was appropriated by Congress for one purpose and is now, at Trump’s unilateral direction, being used for another. “This is his most illegal budgetary action by a mile — by a parsec.”AdvertisementThese actions, many of which are illegal and unconstitutionally usurp Congress’ power of the purse, show why it’s near impossible for Democrats to make a deal. What’s the point of making a deal when Trump will either refuse to spend money that Democrats want spent or decide to spend that money on something else entirely? The president can neither spend money that hasn’t been appropriated by Congress, nor refuse to spend money that Congress has appropriated except in very limited circumstances. says that House Republicans would consider cutting appropriated funds through a rescission package, further undermining any trust Democrats may have in striking a budget deal.

LOADING ERROR LOADINGThe Department of Justice announced on Friday that it will monitor polls in six heavily Latino counties in New Jersey and California during elections held on Nov. 4. The announcement comes as concerns mount about how the Trump administration may seek to interfere with and undermine U.S. elections. Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon will oversee the federal monitoring of elections in six counties in New Jersey and California on Nov. 4. “We welcome transparency in our elections, but U.S. DOJ’s presence is completely unnecessary,” the press office for California Attorney General Rob Bonta said in an email. The Trump administration, however, is openly opposed to the Voting Rights Act and the Civil Rights Division has inverted the original intent of civil rights law to make supposed anti-white discrimination its priority.

Declared brain-dead at just nine weeks pregnant, Adriana was kept on life support for months against her family’s wishes. Her body became the site of a state-mandated experiment in control — one that forced treatment on a woman who could no longer consent. I’m a plaintiff in Koskenoja v. Whitmer, a case challenging Michigan’s pregnancy exclusion — a statute that nullifies a person’s end-of-life medical decisions if they are pregnant. I’m someone who could become pregnant, and that means the rights I’ve carefully outlined for myself could disappear the moment a pregnancy is detected. If a government can override a pregnant person’s decisions when they’re incapacitated, it can override anyone’s.
