😆 American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten, a longtime powerhouse member of the Democratic National Committee, is leaving the DNC, according to a letter obtained by POLITICO.

Weingarten, who has been a member of the DNC for 23 years, wrote to DNC Chair Ken Martin that she had fundamental disagreements with him.

Weingarten’s departure is the latest sign that the party is still embroiled in factional disputes, and it is likely to only further finger-pointing and intensify criticism among Democrats. Weingarten has defended former DNC vice chair David Hogg, who was ousted last week from his post on the committee, as he has come under fire over his decision to fund primary challenges against Democrats that he sees as ineffective in safe-blue districts.

Weingarten also supported another candidate to lead the DNC, Wisconsin Democratic Party chair Ben Wikler, during the party’s election earlier this year. When Martin took over, he removed Weingarten from her position on the influential DNC’s rules and bylaws committee, which she had sat on since 2009.

Police recovered a list containing approximately 70 names from suspected assassin Vance Boelter, which included prominent Democratic lawmakers and abortion providers. The list featured U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar and Representative Ilhan Omar among the most high-profile political figures, according to reports from The Minnesota Star Tribune and Alpha News.

The document also contained names of Planned Parenthood physicians and abortion clinics, including a facility scheduled to open in Omaha, Nebraska. Boelter, who previously served as a public employee under Governor Tim Walz, was arrested Sunday night following a two-day manhunt.

On last night’s Real AF Talk, The Kate Awakening and I touched on the importance of good mental and physical health, and some of the ways in which we can achieve both.

Without our mental and physical health, life will always be an uphill battle until our last breath.

Nutrition, Fitness, and overall Health is an area that I have knowledge in, but I don’t post about.

It dawned on me last night that maybe that needs to change.

Would you be interested in me mixing in health related posts along with my regular daily content?

President Trump on Monday said kicking Russia out of the forum of the world’s largest economies contributed to Russia invading Ukraine.

He also said it is too late to bring Russian President Vladimir Putin back to the forum.

Mr. Trump is attending the gathering of leaders from the world’s seven largest economies, known as the Group of Seven, which began Sunday in Canada. The gathering used to be known as the Group of Eight before Mr. Putin was expelled.

“They threw Russia out, which I claimed was a very big mistake, even though I wasn’t in politics,” Mr. Trump said. “Putin is no longer at the table, so it makes life more complicated, but you wouldn’t have the war.”

Russia was removed from the forum as a penalty for annexing Crimea from Ukraine in 2014. President Obama and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau pushed to remove Russia, saying the move was in direct response to its actions.

🤭Och, what a bletherin’ stramash! Huma Abedin, Hillary Clinton’s ever-loyal “second lassie,” an’ Alex Soros, the laddie jinglin’ with his da’s £25 billion progressive purse, tied the knot on Saturday in a Water Mill, N.Y., bash so swanky it’d make a laird’s castle look like a damp bothy. The Soros estate was loupin’ wi’ Democratic bigwigs, provin’ that naebody says “I do” like a fleet o’ private jets an’ black SUVs turnin’ the Hamptons into a fortress fit for a Bond villain.

But the real kicker? The juicy details o’ this high-falutin’ hoolie were spilled by Pepe the Frog, the internet’s slipperiest meme, who was forced to ditch his Scottish holiday to play reporter. Aye, Pepe was kickin’ back with a whisky by Loch Ness when the 17th letter o’ the alphabet—ye ken who—pinged him with the same cryptic order he’s been hearin’ for years: “Follow Huma.” “I was plannin’ to chase haggis an’ bagpipes,” he griped on X, “but that letter’s been bangin’ on forever, so I fired off the weddin’ scoop to Vogue, kilt an’ all.”

Someone like you, not to organize it, but who knows the history of these institutions and, quite frankly, where the bodies are buried, have to come in as a special government employee.

We have to go to war against the Deep State now.

🔥 Kraft Heinz said Tuesday that it will eliminate artificial colors from its U.S. products.

The food industry has been under pressure from HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to ditch artificial dyes.

Kraft Heinz — one of the largest food and beverage companies in North America — said it will remove food, drug and cosmetic (FD&C) colors from its products before the end of 2027. (Not good enough - NOW)

It also committed to not launch any new products with FD&C colors effective immediately.

The company said nearly 90% of its U.S. products are already free of the synthetic dyes, when measured by sales.

The company already removed artificial colors from Kraft Mac & Cheese in 2016, while it said its Heinz Tomato Ketchup "has never had artificial dyes."

Kraft Heinz said it plans on "replacing FD&C colors with natural colors" or "reinventing new colors and shades where matching natural replacements are not available."

BREAKING👀: Disgraced rapper R Kelly was rushed to hospital after overdosing on medication in prison.

The R&B star suffered the overdose after being given medications by prison staff, his attorney said in a filing. Federal prosecutors denied this.

He is serving a 30-year prison sentence for racketeering and sex trafficking, after being exposed as a serial sex abuser in the #MeToo movement.

According to an attorney for the rapper, real name Robert Sylvester Kelly, he was put into solitary confinement on June 10 and was locked up with anxiety medication.

On the same day, he was given more medications and was directed to take them, the filing said.

Three days later, Kelly reported feeling 'faint' and 'dizzy', and 'started to see black spots in his vision', before he passed out and was rushed to nearby Duke University Hospital.

According to the filing, the rapper was heard telling a prison staffer that 'this is going to open a new can of worms.'

Kelly spent two days recovering in hospital, and his attorneys allege that the prison staffers 'gave him an amount of medicine that could have killed him.'
