Trump has a Cosplay Cabinet.
In Donald Trump's administration, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem wears various costumes, including firefighting gear for drills with the United States Coast Guard, a cowboy hat and horse for a jaunt with Border Patrol agents in Texas, and a bulletproof ICE vest for a dawn raid in New York City The Defense Secretary posted photos of himself doing snowy push-ups with U.S. troops in Poland and pre-dawn Germany. FBI deputy director Dan Bongino spars with agents. Bongino had a run-in with his instructor that left him with a swollen elbow. The risks of Trump's Cosplay Cabinet are that his underlings perform near-daily tone poems to a certain type of masculinity, publicly pantomiming their professional responsibilities. Jonathan Chait asked Dan Bongino what he believed. Noem, who has earned herself several Barbie-inspired nicknames, is perhaps the most blatant offenders. She was photographed behind the controls of a Coast Guard boat and a Coast Guard plane, wore Border Patrol fatigues for an ATV tour along the southern border, and posed in cargo pants and an ICE vest....

Authors in a Supreme Court case detail their fight.
In 2008, Sarah S. Brannen published her first book, about a young girl's anxiety surrounding her favorite uncle's wedding. She wrote it for her niece, who told Brannen she thought the ending of every story should be wrapped in a bow, with two people in love living happily ever after. A Supreme Court case that could decide whether parents may opt their children out of elementary school lessons with LGBTQ storybooks is at the center of Uncle Bobby's Wedding. The justices heard oral arguments in the case this week and appear to be in agreement with a group of parents who argue that the school district's lack of an opt-out option burdens their First Amendment rights. The parents who fall on a spectrum of religious beliefs are not challenging their school district's curriculum or asking for books to be banned. Some free speech groups say a ruling siding with the parents could set a troubling precedent and affect more than just LGBTQ-related content. Brannen said in an interview following Tuesday's arguments that it was "surreal" when they first started talking about his book. I am a children's book author and illustrator....

The telescope may have revealed a secret.
There is a neon glow near the center of the Southern Pinwheel galaxy for the first time. This gas requires a lot of energy to shine. Based on data from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, the barred spiral galaxy M83 has an active black hole. The research published in The Astrophysical Journal upended prior thinking about the universe. It was assumed that if there was a hole in the heart, it wouldn't shoot out high-energy radiation. "We did not have the tools to detect such faint and highly ionized gas signatures in M83's nucleus before," said Svea Hernandez, an astronomer at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore. We are able to explore the hidden depths of the universe. Dust and gas obscure the view to extremely distant and inherently dim light sources, but infrared waves can pierce through the clouds....

The court ruling complicates the anti-DEI push.
A judge ruled against the Education Department's directives this week, throwing into chaos President Trump's plans to rid the country's education system of diversity, equity and inclusion. Before federal Judge Landya McCafferty issued her preliminary injunction on Trump's anti-DEI measures, states were already dealing with a delayed certification deadline and murky enforcement mechanisms. Liz King, senior director of education equity at the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights said, "Many schools and districts and colleges and universities have been waiting to see what would happen because they knew and understood that what they were being asked to do was blatantly unlawful and nonsensical." Hopefully this will give the assurance that schools should not be bending to the will of this administration. The Department of Education warned universities that they could lose federal funding if they don't get rid of DEI efforts. State education and K-12 district leaders were told they needed to certify their schools had no DEI programs or risk losing federal funding. The Education Department created a portal to allow parents to report programs they feel are in violation of Trump's executive orders. The efforts resulted in lawsuits and were blocked by three judges on Thursday....

The incoming CEO credits his mother and aunts with being his inspiration.
The first foreigner to head 7-Eleven is confident the convenience store chain will continue to attract thrifty customers even in an economic downturn. Stephen Dacus, an American with a Japanese mother, refused to comment on the specifics of the various investment plans being studied, including an acquisition proposal by Alimentation Couche-Tard of Canada. He said that a special company committee is charged with studying the options objectively. A group of reporters were told by Dacus at the Tokyo headquarters of Seven & i that the process was moving forward very nicely. His appointment as chief executive needs shareholder approval. Seven & i shares have gone up in the last year. Fluent in Japanese and English, Dacus said he was determined to build a culture of leadership that he had learned from his experience working at Walmart and other retailers.
