Specifically, it was about two songs written by R. Kelly that were performed by the Isley Brothers. Monday, people on social media were debating: Can you separate the art from the artist, especially in this instance when the art in question was created for another artist? It’s the latest chapter in the cancel culture debate. R. Kelly has been incarcerated since 2019 while he awaits trial—currently delayed until later this year—on multiple state and federal charges....

Individuals should tap into their support systems and seek the necessary services to decrease the impact these mental health symptoms have on their function. There is no suggested time frame to do so, however, it is important to seek this help if there is any point you feel there is no resolution to your symptoms....

“We will do whatever it takes to make America a better country, to give our kids a better future,” says Mike Huckabee, winner of the Republican Iowa caucuses. “We will deliver for our children, our grandchildren and our great-grandchildren,” claims Sen. Barack Obama, the Democratic winner in Iowa. “We’re going to reclaim the future for our children,” says Democratic Sen. Hillary Clinton. Actually, these are throwaway lines, completely disconnected from reality....

When the rematch between unified middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin and Canelo Alvarez was rescheduled for Sept. 15 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, the expectations were it would sell out as quickly as the first bout. The first fight sold 17,318 tickets in less than two weeks with ringside seats going for $5,000. Pricing for the best view in the house didn’t change this time around, but just 11 days from the rematch, and tickets are still available....

Now, a viral tweet is calling for people to show their preferences: homemade or canned cranberry sauce, to take a stand once and for all. Needless to say, the outcome was…entertaining! Many people said they would happily enjoy both, but soon all diplomacy was gone as preferences began to assert themselves. Allegiances were sworn, with people speaking about the bog berry dish with the zeal of true believers. People on Twitter quickly jumped to defend the jellied, or as it is more crassly referred to, “canned” cranberry sauce....

Bottoms, who served as mayor from 2018 to 2022, tweeted about the incident at the Perimeter Mall Friday afternoon. “Odd that a restaurant in a mall parking lot turns away customers in ‘mall’ attire,” she tweeted. “Asked if I could sit in the bar area and was told, ‘No.’. Rules are the rules, just wonder if the woman who came in immediately after me, who I did not see come back out, was also denied service....

Back in May, the 26-year-old tested positive for cocaine, leading to a four-year ban from the International Ice Hockey Federation. While it’s unclear whether or not he’ll face any punishment from the NHL or his team. One thing is certain: his teammates are ready to support him. Speculation on the topic started in late May when a video went viral on social media featuring Kuznetsov sitting in a hotel room next to lines of white powder....

Never fond of the media, Freeh has refused to get drawn into the ongoing controversy over the FBI’s performance in the period before September 11. As a private citizen, he is free to turn down requests from reporters for interviews. The surprising part is that he has also managed to avoid being hauled before Congress. Two separate and powerful committees are looking into the attacks and whether agencies like the FBI could have prevented them....

Carson’s district is the fifth-poorest in the country. Only 10 percent of his constituents have a college degree, and their alma maters are mostly schools the Northeastern elites have never heard of. There have been five Wrangler plant closures in the state, including two in his district and 121 mass layoffs (those of 50 people or more) statewide in the past year. While he remains a free-trader, Carson is beginning to question some of the basic tenets of trade, that it is an economic good and that the social disruption it causes is temporary....

Nader’s rants about the political “duopoly” that shuts out third-party candidates are old news, and his critique of Corporate America is getting shopworn, despite its searing accuracy. So Nader at age 70 is re-inventing himself as an antiwar candidate. It’s a smart political move, and it comes at a time when many analysts had written him off. Instead, the wily consumer activist has found an opening that could doom John Kerry’s chances in November....

Speaking on CNN Friday evening, Khanna said the officers worked hard to keep lawmakers safe when an attacker rammed a car into the barricade outside the Capitol building earlier that afternoon. The vehicle fatally struck officer William “Billy” Evans. “My heart goes out to the family of the officer who lost his life in the duty of this country,” Khanna said Friday. “They kept us safe. I was coming back to my office, it was locked up, and I had an officer say ‘go into your car quickly....

A senior official on Biden’s inauguration committee told Newsweek security discussions are ongoing. “We are confident in our security partners who have spent months planning and preparing for the inauguration, and we are continuing to work with them to ensure the utmost safety and security of the president-elect, vice president-elect, participants and the public during this historic event,” the official said. “We are looking forward to the inaugural ceremonies, in which the American people and the world will witness a peaceful transition of power....

Griswold was arrested on Friday for breaching the Capitol on that day as Congress met to certify President Joe Biden’s Electoral College victory—one of more than a hundred people charged for their alleged role in the insurrection. A recently unsealed complaint alleges Griswold was photographed on the Senate floor after it was evacuated. In a video posted on Twitter about an hour after footage depicted him entering the Capitol, Griswold brags that rioters were able to overrun security forces....

Abual-Ragheb pleaded guilty to one count of parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building, a charge that could come with up to six months of jail time. Prosecutors are only pushing for a 30-day incarceration, but consider jail time appropriate because of her “violent rhetoric” before, during and after the January 6 riot. Abual-Ragheb, a believer that President Joe Biden didn’t properly win the election, encouraged people ahead of the Capitol riot to “rise up” and said it would be “1776 again” when people took to the streets....

According to court documents, Bancroft was one of the participants of the Capitol riots that involved supporters of former President Donald Trump protesting the results of the 2020 presidential election. The documents state Bancroft told FBI agents she was inside the building for approximately 30 seconds to one minute. While attempting to exit the Capitol, Bancroft allegedly filmed herself saying she and Diana Santos-Smith, another woman charged in the riot, “broke into the Capitol” and “did our part....

The familiar surroundings of the city that had been her home for 53 years were now where she could be killed at any moment by an invading force. War makes the surreal suddenly real. “We had to rethink everything very quickly.” Iryna did not want her surname used for her and her family’s safety. For the same reason, two other women from the city in the Zaporizhzhia oblast who spoke to Newsweek wanted to use aliases....

Kohana was the daughter of Tilikum, the subject of the documentary Blackfish and responsible for the deaths of three trainers. Kohana’s death marks the third killer whale to die at the Loro Parque marine park in Tenerife, Spain in the past 18 months. Previously in August 2021, a three-year-old orca named Ula died, and shortly before that in March 2021, 17-year-old Skyla died. In the wild, female killer whales can live for up to 80 years....
