New story: American bobsledder Jadin O’Brien had a traumatic childhood illness that defied explanation for years — to the point that her parents sought help from an exorcist. They found a treatment, and she became a track star turned Winter Olympian. bit.ly/40jWd52

A Mystery Illness Terrorized Her Youth. Now, Olympic Bobsledder Jadin O’Brien Is Shining a Light
Recruited on Instagram by Elana Meyers Taylor, the Notre Dame track champion only took up bobsled last year. It’s far from the biggest challenge she’s overcome.

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti. "Please get the truth out about our son."
Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti
Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti

“We are heartbroken but also very angry.

Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact.

I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. 

Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

No, you're not dreaming. Trump has gone and paid the better part of $100,000 for a car he's not yet driven, and which during the course of its production has been the subject of dozens of recalls for issues like seat-belt warning system malfunctions and unexpected speeding and lane changes.

Elon, I hate to break it to you but you aren’t my boss. I answer to the people of Minnesota. But since you bring it up, I spent last week fighting to stop tax breaks for billionaires like you, paid for by defunding health care for moms and babies
Senator Tina Smith said: This is the ultimate dick boss move from Musk - except he isn’t even the boss, he’s just a dick.

That was in response to Musk saying “Consistent with President @realDonaldTrump's instructions, all federal employees will shortly receive an email requesting to understand what they got done last week. Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation.”

Musk responded @SenTinaSmith “What did you get done last week?”
