King Charles III and Queen Camilla are visiting the US - the first British state visit to the country since Queen Elizabeth II's visit in 2007. The trip, which comes as the US approaches the 250th anniversary of its independence from Britain, is meant to celebrate the strong relationship between the two countries. State visits are taken when a head of state is invited for a formal stay by another country, in this case the US. As heads of government, British prime ministers conduct "official visits" or "working visits", but not state visits.

An American millionaire big-game hunter has died after being crushed by a group of elephants during a hunting expedition in Gabon. Ernie Dosio, a 75-year-old vineyard owner, was hunting yellow-backed duiker, an antelope species, in the central African country of Gabon when the incident occurred last Friday. While in the Lope-Okanda rainforest, he and his guide unexpectedly came across five female elephants accompanied by a calf. Originally from Lodi, California, Dosio had built an extensive collection of hunting trophies over the years, including animals such as elephants and lions. He was reportedly a familiar name within the Sacramento Safari Club. According to the Daily Mail, safari operator Collect Africa confirmed the death of its client. The company also reported that the professional hunter guiding Dosio sustained serious injuries during the encounter.

The USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) saw a 40% jump in food safety complaints in fiscal year 2025, according to a new report from the federal agency. The FSIS oversees meat, poultry, and egg products in the U.S. and received 2,016 complaints, the highest number since the USDA’s Consumer Complaint Monitoring System was established in 2001. Food safety complaints to FSIS for fiscal year 2025, which covers October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2025, were up 39.7% from fiscal year 2024, when 1,443 complaints were received. The U.S. government under President Trump has sought to weaken regulations intended to keep the U.S. food supply safe, most recently seeking to abolish what it calls “outdated processing requirements” for meat and poultry products. USDA under Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins has proposed speeding up the chicken slaughtering lines from 140 birds per minute to 175 and the turkey slaughtering lines from 55 birds per minute to 60. The agency has also proposed eliminating speed limits for pork slaughter lines entirely. Unions for workers at meatpacking facilities have opposed the changes over obvious health and safety concerns.

President Donald Trump is having the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool coated in a swimming pool surface hued in “American flag blue,” covering a decades-old granite surface that he said was “leaking like a sieve” and would take years to replace. The president announced the renovation at an Oval Office event Thursday, saying the coating had already begun. Trump said he was inspired to tackle the project after a friend visited from Germany and lamented that the water was filthy. The project is one more makeover refashioning the nation’s capital to Trump’s liking, following others such as the demolition of the White House East Wing to make room for a new ballroom. In Trump’s telling, the reflection pool project is a case study in business acumen. The president said he scrapped plans to have the granite replaced, which he said was estimated to cost $301 million and would take at least three years. Instead, Trump said he called a few pool contractors he knows from past real estate projects — “I have a guy who’s unbelievable at doing swimming pools up the road,” Trump said. Trump brought up the project unprompted and spoke about it for several minutes at a White House event on efforts to reduce drug prices. He said he initially wanted a turquoise-colored surface “like in the Bahamas” but was sold when a contractor suggested “American flag blue.”

Seven years after his explosive HBO doc, Dan Reed watches Hollywood cash in on a man he calls "worse than Jeffrey Epstein" with the biopic 'Michael' — and explains why nobody seems to mind. Jackson’s streaming numbers are up, MJ the Musical is a Broadway juggernaut, and Lionsgate’s Michael — a biopic helmed by Training Day director Antoine Fuqua and starring Jaafar Jackson, Jackson’s own nephew, as the pop superstar — is tracking to be one of the year’s biggest box-office hits. Leaving Neverland, meanwhile, has quietly vanished from HBO after a legal settlement with the Jackson estate. With Michael set to open on nearly 4,000 screens, Reed called The Hollywood Reporter from the U.K. to discuss the ethical ramifications behind the blockbuster machinery of music biopics.
