Fresh chatter suggests Meghan Markle could be facing a deeply uncomfortable memoir — this time from former best friend Jessica Mulroney.According to claims attributed to gossip writer Rob Shuter and unnamed publishing insiders, Mulroney has allegedly been approached about a book deal worth up to $1 million. One source claims, “Jessica has absolutely nothing left to lose,” adding, “She saw everything. And she remembers all of it.” Mulroney was once firmly inside Meghan's Toronto inner circle and closely involved in the 2018 royal wedding before their friendship collapsed after Mulroney's 2020 public controversy.Meanwhile, a chocolate promo video featuring Prince Harry has sparked online fascination after eagle-eyed viewers spotted military patches, a “Love You Papa” card believed to be from Archie and Lilibet, and a photo of Princess Diana inside Harry's home office.There are also renewed whispers about Harry's emotional pull toward Britain, with sources claiming he sees the UK as “unfinished business,” even as his family life remains rooted in California. Add in resurfaced claims about Meghan's long-term ambitions, friction with Queen Camilla, and fresh criticism of her As Ever brand — and it's another week of relentless Sussex speculation.As royal turbulence continues, questions are also swirling around a potential U.S. visit by King Charles and whether Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's legal cloud could complicate diplomatic plans.Palace Intrigue is your daily royal family podcast, diving deep into the modern-day drama, power struggles, and scandals shaping the future of the monarchy."Crown and Controversy: Norway" is covering the trial of Marius Borg Høiby as the Norwegian Royal Family is faced with multiple scandals of their own.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

On Cincinnati Edition's weekly news review, local journalists join us to talk about the big stories from recent days.

Imagine this: I'm sitting in my Washington D.C. studio, coffee in hand, watching the Supreme Court building gleam under a crisp winter sun, and I can't shake the feeling that the highest court in the land is about to drop some seismic rulings on President Donald Trump. Over the past few days, the buzz has been electric, especially with SCOTUSblog reporting on January 28 that the justices are set to huddle in their private conference on February 20 to decide whether to dive into that infamous five-million-dollar verdict from Trump's clash with E. Jean Carroll.Let me take you back. Carroll, the veteran journalist who penned Elle magazine's advice column for 27 years, sued Trump in 2022 under a special New York state law that reopened the window for adult sexual abuse victims to file claims. She accused him of assaulting her in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room in Manhattan back in 1996, and then defaming her in a 2022 Truth Social post where he branded her story a hoax and a con job. A federal jury in May 2023 sided with her, hitting Trump with liability for sexual abuse and defamation, awarding her that five-million-dollar payout. Trump appealed to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, which upheld it in December 2024 and shot down his rehearing bid in June 2025. Now, his team from the James Otis Law Group—led by his solicitor general D. John Sauer—is begging the Supreme Court to step in, calling the suit facially implausible and politically timed to hurt him after he became the 45th president. They want out key evidence: testimonies from Jessica Leeds, who claims Trump groped her on a plane in 1979, and Natasha Stoynoff, alleging assault at his Mar-a-Lago home in 2005, plus that infamous Access Hollywood tape where Trump boasted about grabbing women. Carroll's lawyer, Roberta Kaplan, fires back that even without those, her case stands strong, so the Supremes should pass.But that's just one front. The court's January argument calendar, released late last year, packs a punch with Trump cases testing his executive muscle. On January 21, they heard Trump v. Cook, where President Trump tried firing Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook over mortgage fraud allegations from before her tenure. U.S. District Judge Jia Cobb in D.C. blocked it with a preliminary injunction in September 2025, citing the Federal Reserve Act's for-cause protection. The D.C. Circuit and Supreme Court denied emergency bids to oust her fast, but now it's full showdown—Cook's rep, ex-Solicitor General Paul Clement, versus Sauer. Wikipedia details how this sparked a historic brawl over Fed independence, with Cook's team calling it a political smear.Then there's the shadow docket drama from 2025, as News4JAX outlined this week: Trump's admin won over 80 percent of emergency pleas, greenlighting moves like slashing foreign aid, axing agency heads, and tying immigration probes to looks or language. But they drew the line at deploying National Guard to Chicago. Chief Justice John Roberts' year-end report subtly defended judicial independence, dubbing courts a counter-majoritarian check amid Trump's judge-bashing.Looking ahead, per News4JAX and KIMA Action News clips from early January, 2026 looms huge: birthright citizenship challenges under the 14th Amendment, sweeping tariffs from Trump's 2025 executive orders—argued November 5, decision pending—and more Fed firing fights. Illinois alone filed 51 suits against his policies by January, per WTTW. Lawfare's tracker logs the national security lawsuits piling up. With Trump's approval dipping to 42 percent, experts whisper the conservative court might now clip his wings, echoing rebukes to Truman, Nixon, and others late in term.These battles aren't just legal—they're reshaping power between White House, Congress, and the robes. As SCOTUSblog notes, decisions could land soon after February 20 conferences, maybe by March.Thanks for tuning in, listeners.

Dentistry isn't just about shiny teeth. It's about your airway, your inflammation, and the biology driving how you feel every day. Miss that, and you miss one of the clearest windows into whole-body health. In this episode of Medical Disruptors, I sit down with Dr. Ariana Ebrahimian, DDS, and we widen the lens: the mouth is not a standalone body part. It's a living ecosystem with a direct line to your airway, your sleep, your inflammation, and your long-term risk profile. We talk about why breathing problems can start in the structure of the jaw and palate in childhood, why mouth breathing is a red flag that deserves more than a shrug, and how oral posture and tongue function can shape the airway over time. But we don't stop at breathing. We get into oral dysbiosis, bleeding gums, and the uncomfortable truth that what's happening in your mouth doesn't stay in your mouth… bacteria can travel, inflammation can spread, and “routine” dental choices can ripple into the rest of your biology. We also challenge common habits people assume are harmless: constant snacking, soda, alcohol-based mouthwash, and the oversimplified fluoride conversation, then bring it back to practical, grounded alternatives. If you've ever felt like your healthcare is fragmented, one specialist per body part, this episode is your reminder that the body doesn't work that way. Your mouth is a gateway. And when you understand that, you start seeing your health differently. Want more practical health tips?

The remains of the last hostage, Ran Gvili returned to Israel. Analysis: Amir Hamidi & Chuck Holton on carnage in Iran & NE Syria. Holocaust survivor Walter Bingham's inspiring story. Simon Barrett on the modern exodus of Jewish people from the UK.

For decades, the U.S. food pyramid shaped how Americans ate, emphasizing carbs, avoiding fats, and largely ignoring food quality and texture. Today, that model has been replaced with a more balanced approach, but there's still an important piece of the nutrition conversation missing. In this episode, we explore the shift from the old food pyramid to the modern plate model... and then dive into a lesser-known consequence of modern diets: the loss of chewing and how it is leading to more orthodontic interventions. As ultra-processed, soft foods have become the norm, children are chewing less than ever during critical growth years. Emerging research in orthodontics, dentistry, and anthropology suggests this may contribute to underdeveloped jaws, narrow dental arches, crowded teeth, poor tongue posture, and even smaller airways, with potential impacts on breathing and sleep. This episode connects nutrition, development, and airway health, and asks a bigger question:Are modern diets feeding growth or limiting it?

We also look at new threats facing Israel, including IDF  preparations for extreme scenarios such as a possible Houthi infiltration through the Jordanian border and coordinated terror attacks in Judea & Samaria. We also cover major developments in Gaza, where the IDF has launched a sensitive and dangerous operation to recover the body of Israel's last remaining hostage, Staff Sgt. Maj. Ran Gvili — a mission that reflects Israel's commitment to bring every soldier home. *UPDATE* The IDF has confirmed that they have successfully recovered the body of Staff Sgt. Maj. Ran Gvili. Ran Gvili was the final hostage from Oct 7 who remained in Gaza. Finally, we discuss Israel's controversial decision to partially reopen the Rafah Crossing in accordance with President Trump's 20-point peace plan, and why many Israelis fear this could strengthen Hamas once again.

Gov. Josh Stein has declared a state of emergency as the region braces for a major winter weather event. Also raising concern, the flu has been more deadly than last year, with 67 deaths so far in South Carolina and 181 deaths in North Carolina. Meanwhile, for the second year in a row, a person was found dead during a count to assess homelessness.

On today's podcast:1) President Trump expressed confidence that the European Union would continue to invest in the US even if he imposed new tariffs related to his quest to take control of Greenland, a proposal that has angered leaders on the continent. The president’s rare appearance in the White House briefing room came ahead of his departure Tuesday night from Washington for the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, where he will confront European leaders who are furious over his bid to take over the territory of a fellow NATO ally, Denmark. Earlier Tuesday, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said that Trump’s threats were a “mistake” that would violate the deal he forged last year with the bloc. Officials in Europe have begun drafting plans to retaliate, which could set off a tit-for-tat that may scuttle the accord.2) Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent cautioned European nations against ramping up their military presence on Greenland and assailed France over calls to conduct a NATO exercise as European leaders brace for President Trump’s arrival at Davos. Bessent questioned the message European allies were sending following the recent decision by Denmark and seven other NATO countries to deploy a handful of officers to the island, which Trump has said he wants to make a part of the US.3) Months after President Trump attempted to fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook over unproven mortgage fraud allegations, the case will get a hearing before the Supreme Court. The justices are scheduled to consider whether Trump can oust Cook while the legal fight over the allegations proceeds. The case is one element in an effort by Trump to exert more control over the Fed and pressure officials to significantly cut interest rates. Trump has repeatedly attacked Fed Chair Jerome Powell, who has resisted the president’s demands to resign.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a textThe forecast finally points at Richmond—and not with a gentle nudge. We're staring down a potential foot of snow followed by single-digit cold that turns slush into black ice and routine errands into risk. So we slow things down and map what actually keeps a household safe: fuel, heat, water, food, and the discipline to stay off the roads while the city catches up.We start with the hard realities of central Virginia winter: limited snow removal, contractor-heavy plowing, and a driving culture that speeds up when traction goes down. From there, we dig into what changing models really tell us, why local meteorologists hedge, and how to read the National Weather Service guidance without getting spun by hype. Then we get practical. Fill every tank and stage at least 10 gallons per vehicle at home, top off propane, and grab those small cylinders before shelves empty. Build water reserves that support at least 72 hours, and stock pantry staples—beans, rice, soups, pasta, freeze-dried meals—so you're not competing for the last loaf and carton.Heat is the centerpiece. We walk through zoning rooms with doors and heavy quilts, using south-facing windows for daytime warmth, and making backup heat safe with proper ventilation and detectors. Cooking stays simple with butane stoves, grills, and a Blackstone, all fueled up and used safely. We cover battery banks, flashlights, weather radios, and the balance between solar generators and gasoline units, including testing and exercising your generator before the storm. Outside, we flag the small details that matter: clearing around HVAC units, staging shovels, knowing when salt won't melt, and laying down kitty litter for traction. If you keep backyard chickens, we talk windbreaks and when to bring them into the garage as temps plunge.The theme is calm readiness, not panic. Forecasts will tighten; preparation doesn't need to wait.

Explosive new claims reopen the darkest chapter of the House of York. Fresh reporting alleges Sarah Ferguson carried on an affair inside Prince Andrew's private study — while he slept upstairs. The accusations, drawn from multiple books and former household staff, revive memories of the York marriage's spectacular collapse and the Palace's fury at Ferguson's behaviour.Meanwhile, biographer Andrew Lownie says the dam has finally burst. Former protection officers, diplomats, naval figures, and palace insiders are now coming forward daily with new allegations about Andrew, prompting plans for a sequel rather than a simple book update. Sources warn there is now enough material to haunt the monarchy for years, with fears Andrew could ultimately flee abroad if pressure escalates further.We also look at why Lownie's newly announced Prince Philip project has triggered quiet alarm inside royal circles, as well as the contrast on display elsewhere in the family: Catherine releases a deeply personal cancer recovery film marking her birthday, while Queen Camilla promotes the growing reach of her Reading Room charity. As the York scandals resurface yet again, the Palace faces an uncomfortable truth — some ghosts simply refuse to stay buried.Palace Intrigue is your daily royal family podcast, diving deep into the modern-day drama, power struggles, and scandals shaping the future of the monarchy.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

This Day in Legal History: Hattie Wyatt Caraway Elected to SenateOn January 12, 1932, Hattie Wyatt Caraway of Arkansas became the first woman elected to the United States Senate in her own right, marking a milestone in American legal and political history. Initially appointed to her late husband Thaddeus Caraway's Senate seat, she was widely expected to serve only as a placeholder until a male successor could be elected. Instead, Caraway defied expectations by entering the special election and winning, quietly but firmly asserting her independence. Her victory came just over a decade after the ratification of the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote and laid the groundwork for their broader participation in political life.Caraway's campaign was bolstered by the support of Louisiana Senator Huey Long, whose populist style and energetic barnstorming helped draw attention to her candidacy. Despite being soft-spoken and reserved on the Senate floor, Caraway developed a reputation for diligence and loyalty to her constituents. She went on to win a full term later that year, becoming the first woman to do so and serving in the Senate until 1945.Her election symbolized a shift in legal and cultural attitudes toward women in government roles. While women had begun entering state legislatures and the House of Representatives, the Senate had remained all-male until Caraway's election. Her success challenged deeply rooted assumptions about women's capacity for leadership and helped open the door for future female senators. She focused much of her legislative work on issues affecting veterans, farmers, and rural communities.U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani announced she would block the Trump administration's attempt to terminate temporary legal status for 10,000 to 12,000 migrants from seven Latin American countries. These individuals had entered the U.S. under family reunification parole programs that allowed them to live legally with relatives while waiting for visa approval. The Department of Homeland Security had moved to cancel the programs, which were launched or updated during the Biden administration, arguing they were being misused to bypass regular immigration protocols.Judge Talwani criticized the government for failing to provide proper legal notice to the affected migrants, many of whom are children, and emphasized that the U.S. must also follow the law. The plaintiffs' attorney called the government's move harmful and disruptive, especially to families and school-aged children. A Justice Department lawyer argued that the administration had the legal authority to revoke parole.The case is part of a broader legal battle over Trump's efforts to dismantle humanitarian parole programs initiated under President Biden, which had provided temporary protection to hundreds of thousands of migrants. Talwani had previously issued rulings blocking similar rollbacks, but higher courts overturned them. Her upcoming order is expected to offer temporary relief to thousands facing imminent deportation.US judge to block Trump move to end thousands of Latin American migrants' legal status | ReutersOn January 10, Indonesia became the first country to temporarily block access to Elon Musk's Grok chatbot, citing concerns over the platform's ability to generate AI-produced pornographic content, including disturbing depictions of minors. The country's Communications and Digital Minister condemned non-consensual sexual deepfakes as serious human rights violations and emphasized the need to protect dignity and digital safety. This action follows growing international criticism of Grok's content safeguards, with some governments in Europe and Asia launching investigations.xAI, the company behind Grok, responded by limiting image generation features to paying users while working to address security flaws that had allowed the creation of sexualized images. However, its public response to Reuters included a dismissive automatic message: “Legacy Media Lies.” Musk, posting on X, insisted users generating illegal content would be held accountable as if they had uploaded it directly.Indonesia's firm stance highlights the absence of similar decisive action from the United States, where Grok and xAI are based—raising questions about America's professed commitment to protecting victims of online abuse. The U.S.'s failure to lead on this issue stands in stark contrast to its claimed leadership in defending digital rights and vulnerable populations.Indonesia temporarily blocks access to Grok over sexualised images | ReutersU.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the government has more than enough funds—nearly $774 billion in cash on hand—to handle any tariff refunds that may result from a potential Supreme Court ruling against President Trump's emergency tariffs. However, Bessent noted that any repayments would be distributed gradually over weeks or even up to a year. He expressed skepticism that the Court would rule against the tariffs, and criticized potential refunds as corporate windfalls, questioning whether companies like Costco, which sued the government, would pass any refunded money back to consumers.While many importers argue that they should be reimbursed if the Court finds Trump's use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) unlawful, Bessent claimed the actual number of refundable tariffs is lower than the estimated $150 billion cited by some trade analysts. He declined to offer a precise figure. He also disputed the idea that Trump's tariffs significantly contributed to inflation, asserting that there was little evidence of cost pass-through to consumers.Bessent warned that if the Supreme Court does rule against the tariffs, the decision could be complex rather than a simple reversal, which might complicate refund logistics. He added that a delay in the ruling increases the odds of a decision favoring Trump. Treasury's projected end-of-quarter balance of $850 billion and an expected reduction in the 2025 calendar-year deficit are seen as bolstering its ability to manage any financial impact.Bessent says US Treasury can easily cover any tariff refunds | ReutersFederal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell revealed that the Fed had been served with grand jury subpoenas by the U.S. Department of Justice, escalating tensions between the central bank and the Trump administration. The subpoenas reportedly relate to Powell's June 2025 congressional testimony about renovations to the Fed's headquarters, but Powell described the move as part of a broader campaign of political intimidation aimed at undermining the Fed's independence. He stated unequivocally that the threat of criminal charges was tied to the Fed's refusal to set interest rates according to presidential preferences.President Trump denied involvement in the DOJ probe, but his administration has long clashed with Powell over interest rate policy and spending. Trump has publicly floated removing Powell and Fed Governor Lisa Cook, whose case is pending before the Supreme Court. Meanwhile, markets reacted to the news with falling stock futures and a surge in gold prices, reflecting investor unease over the attack on central bank autonomy.Republican Senator Thom Tillis condemned the subpoenas, pledging to block any future Fed nominee until the legal matter is resolved. The DOJ's inquiry is reportedly focused on whether Powell misled Congress about ballooning renovation costs, which reached $2.5 billion. Though the administration alleges possible misconduct, critics see the legal threat as part of a pressure campaign to force Powell out ahead of his term's expiration in May.Fed Served With DOJ Subpoenas, Powell Vows to Stand Firm (5) This is a public episode.

AP's Lisa Dwyer reports on protests as ICE arrests continue in Minnesota.

In the years leading up to Virginia Roberts (now Virginia Giuffre) filing her civil lawsuit against Prince Andrew in August 2021, a long history of allegations, legal filings, and public exposure set the stage. Giuffre first made allegations that she was trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein and forced into sexual encounters with Andrew when she was 17 in court documents as early as 2014 and 2015—but those were largely buried or struck from cases at the time. When previously sealed filings from her 2015 defamation lawsuit against Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell were unsealed in 2019, her detailed claims about being trafficked and having sexual contact with Andrew became widely publicized, sparking intense media scrutiny and criticism of the prince's relationship with Epstein. That public exposure came amid broader outrage over Epstein's crimes, Maxwell's arrest and eventual conviction in 2021, and ongoing civil suits by survivors that underscored systemic failures to hold powerful people accountable.Capitalizing on the new legal opportunity created by New York's Child Victims Act—designed to allow older claims that were previously time-barred to be filed—Giuffre's lawyers formally sued Prince Andrew in U.S. federal court, alleging sexual assault and intentional infliction of emotional distress tied to multiple encounters in the early 2000s when she was a minor trafficked by Epstein and Maxwell. The lawsuit cited a pattern of abuse, including travel to Epstein's properties and coercion into sex with Andrew, and came after years of mounting evidence, survivor advocacy, and public pressure to confront powerful figures linked to Epstein's network. The filing triggered a high-profile legal battle, including attempts by Andrew's team to dismiss the case and disputes over service of process, before ultimately leading to an out-of-court settlement in early 2022.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Iran is unraveling in real time. Protests are spreading from city to city, police are joining the crowds, and armed civilians are pushing regime forces out entirely. The ayatollahs are firing live rounds, issuing desperate threats, and now—reports suggest the U.S. may be positioning for action. At the same time, Israel is watching closely… and preparing. As this unfolds, Syria and Israel are holding talks in Paris at the behest of the Trump administration, laying the groundwork for a very interesting—if not concerning—deal. On Israel's northern border, Hezbollah refuses to give up its offensive weapons, and Israel delivers an ultimatum. On the home front, Palestinians are protesting en masse over the Palestinian Authority's proposed changes to its Pay-for-Slay program. Ben Hilton breaks it all down for you.

In this episode, we tackle a practical yet often debated question in basketball coaching circles: should you require or strongly encourage your players to wear ankle braces, and what does the research actually say about their effectiveness in preventing the most common basketball injury—ankle sprains? This isn't just a safety decision; it's a coaching philosophy question that involves balancing player preference, parental concerns, budget constraints, and your responsibility to minimize preventable injuries that can derail seasons and affect young athletes long-term. We explore the evidence supporting ankle brace use: research showing significant reduction in ankle sprain rates, particularly for players with previous ankle injuries who face dramatically higher re-injury risk, the biomechanical support braces provide during the constant cutting, jumping, and landing that basketball demands, and testimonials from programs that have implemented mandatory brace policies with measurable injury reduction. You'll hear counterarguments too—concerns about reduced ankle strength development, player complaints about comfort and restriction, the financial burden on families (quality braces cost $30-80 per pair), and questions about whether proper strength training and proprioception work might be equally or more effective for long-term ankle health. This episode provides practical guidance for implementing an ankle brace policy in your program: how to communicate the rationale to players and parents, whether to make braces mandatory or strongly recommended, how to help families afford quality braces through team orders or fundraising, what brands and models actually provide meaningful support versus cheap alternatives that offer false security, and how to integrate ankle strengthening exercises regardless of brace usage. We discuss the liability considerations coaches face, how to handle the player who refuses to wear braces, and whether different positions or player histories warrant different policies. Whether you've lost key players to ankle injuries and want to prevent future devastation, you're establishing safety protocols for a new program, or you're simply trying to make an informed decision about this common coaching question, you'll gain clarity on the role ankle braces should play in your injury prevention strategy. ankle braces basketball, basketball injury prevention, ankle sprain prevention, basketball player safety, ankle brace policy, preventing basketball injuries, ankle support basketball, ankle injury basketball, basketball ankle braces, injury prevention protocols, ankle brace requirements, basketball safety equipment, ankle strengthening basketball, preventing ankle sprains, basketball ankle protection, player safety basketball, ankle brace effectiveness, basketball injury reduction, ankle stability basketball, basketball anklecare, injury prevention coaching, ankle brace brands, basketball safety policy, ankle injury prevention, protective equipment basketball, ankle health basketball, basketball training safety, injury risk reduction, Wisconsin basketball safety, high school injury prevention SEO Keywords: Learn more about your ad choices.

https://teachhoops.com/⁠ The debate over ankle braces is one of the most persistent topics in basketball, with coaches, trainers, and parents often split on the best approach. In this episode, we dive into the pros and cons of prophylactic ankle bracing versus traditional taping. We break down the cost-benefit analysis, looking not just at the price of tape versus a one-time brace purchase, but also at the effectiveness of each method after 15 minutes of sweating and intense gameplay. We also tackle the biggest myth surrounding this topic: the idea that wearing braces will weaken a player's ankles over time. We look at what the actual research says about "dependency" and whether external support leads to muscle atrophy, or if that is just old-school coaching folklore. We discuss the importance of distinguishing between reliance on a brace and using it as a necessary insurance policy, especially for players with a history of recurrent sprains. Finally, we explore the balance between protection and performance. Does locking down an ankle limit a player's vertical jump or agility? We discuss the concept of the "kinetic chain"—the fear that bracing the ankle might transfer force to the knee—and how to mitigate that risk through proper strength and mobility training. Whether you are considering a team-wide mandate or just advising a player coming off an injury, this episode gives you the facts to make an informed decision. Learn more about your ad choices.
