In the quiet afternoon of Monday, November 10, 2025, a tragic accident on eastbound Interstate 12 in Tangipahoa Parish, Louisiana, claimed the life of 76-year-old June Volkman of Texas, a vibrant woman known for her kindness, love of adventure and open-road spirit.

A proposal for a 50-year mortgage wasn’t fully vetted by top Trump administration officials and wasn’t ready to be made public, sources told CBS News. Over the weekend, top federal housing official Bill Pulte floated the idea with President Trump, who then approved a Truth Social post. Some Trump officials this week vented their frustration with Pulte over the move. One source said Mr. Trump was lukewarm about the suggestion but announced it “to get Pulte to shut up about it.” Another source disputed the characterization of the president as tepid about the mortgage proposal, however, and said 40-year and…
Wendy’s plans to close hundreds of U.S. restaurants in the coming months as revenue and profits decline, with the company citing cutbacks by lower-income consumers that it expects will persist through year’s end. On a Friday investor call, Ken Cook, Wendy’s interim CEO, didn’t disclose the exact number or locations of restaurants that it plans to shutter. But he said the Dublin, Ohio-based company is likely to close in the “mid-single digit percentage” of its 6,011 U.S locations, or roughly 300 store closures if it shuts 5% of its existing restaurants. Wendy’s said the closures will start in the fourth…
You’ve seen the videos in newscasts and social feeds: Federal agents employing chokeholds, firing pepper spray at close range, and even using vehicle maneuvers to control immigration protests. These videos have spurred debate over whether agents have violated federal policies on use of force, which is authorized “only when no reasonably effective, safe, and feasible alternative appears to exist,” according to Department of Homeland Security policies. A review of hundreds of videos, most recorded on cellphones by protesters and posted online, shows repeated instances that don’t appear to meet that standard. We asked Eric Balliet, a career federal agent who…
