“Left-wing radicals” killed conservative activist Charlie Kirk, and “they will be held accountable,” Attorney General Pam Bondi claimed to ABC News in an interview on Monday.”Who killed Charlie? Left-wing radicals, and they will be held accountable,” Bondi told ABC News Chief Justice Correspondent Pierre Thomas. “So will anyone in this country who commits a violent crime against anyone. And the death penalty, thanks to Donald Trump, is on the table again.”The attorney general, however, did not offer a motive as to why the alleged suspect, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, killed Kirk last Wednesday while he was speaking at an event on…
Democratic lawmakers are questioning whether a Boar’s Head deli meat plant at the center of last year’s deadly listeria outbreak will be fit to reopen. Rep. Rosa DeLauro, of Connecticut, sent a letter Monday asking company officials to appear before the Congressional Food Safety Caucus to discuss “a repeated pattern of food safety negligence that jeopardized Americans’ public health.” The letter, signed by nine other Democrats, cited Associated Press reporting that described sanitation problems in recent months at Boar’s Head plants in three states.

Soaked almonds are made by immersing raw almonds in water for several hours or overnight. This process makes them softer and easier to digest. Almonds are rich in healthy fats, plant-based protein, fiber, and antioxidants, and they can support heart health, blood sugar control, weight management, and digestive health. More research is needed to understand how exactly soaking almonds might impact these health benefits. However, there may be a few reasons why someone may want to soak their almonds before eating them. Many anecdotal claims suggest soaking or “activating” almonds increases the bioavailability of their nutrients by removing a plant…

NEW YORK — Wall Street is rising toward more records on Monday at the start of a week that could show whether the U.S. stock market’s big recent rally has been overdone or prescient. The S&P 500 climbed 0.4% and was on track to squeak past its latest all-time high, which was set last week.

Tesla helped lead the way and rose 2.8% after Elon Musk bought stock worth roughly $1 billion…
The most iconic symbol of fall is officially here. No, not sweater weather or Halloween decor—we’re talking about pumpkin spice lattes. Coffee chains across the country—namely Starbucks and Dunkin’—have reintroduced fall-inspired drinks on their menus. But while PSLs and other seasonal favorites are a defining part of autumn for many people, they’re not exactly the most nutritious choices (they’re often high in added sugar, saturated fat, and calories). But that doesn’t mean you have to swear off your favorite seasonal beverage. Here, seven registered dietitians (including myself) share our favorite fall coffee shop orders, which include some better-for-you alternatives to…

It’s very important to wear suncreen when you’re spending time in the sun. But is it really a big deal if you skip it in the fall and winter or when you plan to be inside most of the day? Dermatologists say that applying sunscreen only in the summer or when you plan to be at the beach or the pool is not only a mistake, but can have dire consequences, especially because UV damage is cumulative and can occur even when it’s overcast. Here’s what they say can happen if you skip applying sunscreen on a daily basis. Exposing…
Former Southern District of New York prosecutor Maurene Comey alleged in a lawsuit Monday that her ouster from the U.S. Attorney’s office was “unlawful and unconstitutional” and likely happened because of who her father is.Comey, who prosecuted high-profile defendants including Sean Combs, Robert Hadden, Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, was fired in July.

Processed meats include deli meats like ham, turkey, roast beef, pastrami, hot dogs, and bacon. Red meats and poultry are made into these products by salting, curing, fermenting, smoking, or adding chemical preservatives. Processed meats are often high in sodium and saturated fat and may increase the risk of cancer and heart disease. Less-processed, nitrate-free, low-fat, and low-sodium alternatives may be better options. Oven-roasted turkey breast is the leanest deli meat. About 2 slices or 57 grams (g) of low-salt turkey breast deli meat contains: Calories: 62 kcalProtein: 12.4 g Total fat: 0.5 gSaturated fat: 0.1 gCarbohydrates: 2 gTotal sugars: 2 gSodium:…
