The correspondence, spanning 2011 to 2014, was part of a cache of government records tied to the federal probe into Epstein and reviewed by Bloomberg…

Gavin Newsom is not a betting man. California’s governor on Friday issued an executive order banning insider profiteering by state officials, blocking political appointees from using confidential government information to place bets on prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi, the latter of which recently named Donald Trump Jr. as a strategic advisor. “Public service should not be a get-rich-quick scheme,” Newsom said in a statement that took direct aim at the president. The executive order immediately expands existing state ethics rules to cover the online platforms that allow users to wager on real-world events such as military actions, elections and…

Manspreader, or manchild? Some might say they’re one and the same — like this female airline passenger who posted a picture of herself squished in the middle seat between two gents who did not keep their legs to their assigned areas.

The overhaul began with the firing of Tigers football coach Brian Kelly, whose debacle of a three-year tenure ended with a $54 million buyout — and that doesn’t include the court fees from the lawsuit he filed over his termination. Kelly’s replacement, Lane Kiffin, came over from Ole Miss following a $3 million buyout, agreeing to a seven-year, $91 million deal that reportedly comes with additional…

Renewable energy promises a more secure, domestically sustainable and inexhaustible energy source — via wind, solar, geothermal and energy storage technology.It doesn’t lead to the further warming of our planet and the destabilization of our climate. And it doesn’t lead to us fighting dangerous, often misguided, wars in far-flung lands.This isn’t the first time a global event has placed a huge, shining light on the…
