- Description
- At least 8 people in the U.S. have survived an execution attempt since 1946. Christa Pike is the latest. Tennessee gave her two doses of pentobarbital. Her lawyers say she kept breathing for nearly an hour. Gov. Lee has ordered a third-party review, and her future is unclear.
The cases since 1946 have gone three ways: some people were executed later, some were never retried, and some are still undecided.

- Description
- Trump is weighing a ban on American diesel exports to bring down record prices.
The catch: refineries can't just make diesel; every barrel splits into gas, diesel, and jet fuel at once, so cutting off one cuts into all three.
The Iran war and Ukrainian strikes on Russian refineries have already left the world short on diesel, and the U.S. stepping in to fill that gap is part of why prices are high here too.
Energy Secretary Chris Wright says a ban would mean pricier gas and jet fuel right away, even though a ban is expected to make diesel itself cheaper at first.
Are you comfortable paying more at the pump to bring diesel prices down?

- Much of the Northeast and mid-Atlantic are seeing powerful storms this weekend, with The Weather Channel warning of major coastal flooding, high surf, strong winds, rain and rip currents spanning North Carolina to New England.
Coastal flooding from the storm, called a “nor’easter” because the winds are usually from the northeast, will likely be exacerbated by the full moon, The Weather Channel wrote.

- Tuberville warns of "furry" pilots in commercial aviation

- Description
- Sen. Tommy Tuberville is drawing attention to claims about furries in the airline industry.
In recent remarks, the Alabama Republican said there is an “alarming number” of people in the airline industry who are furries, including pilots, flight attendants and air traffic controllers. He did not provide data to support the claim.
Tuberville cited an audio recording of two pilots meowing and barking over an airport radio frequency and later questioned whether people would be comfortable with a furry person as their pilot.
He also described furries as “mentally ill.” Major medical organizations do not classify being a furry as a mental illness.
The comments came during a broader discussion about gender identity, furry culture and the criminal case involving the man accused of killing Charlie Kirk.

- Should you bring an iced coffee into a job interview?
A recruiter's TikTok said it makes the interview look like a stop on your list of errands, and the internet split down generational lines.
Meanwhile, surveys of hiring managers show the complaints about Gen Z were already there: unprepared, on their phones, bringing a parent into the room.
A career strategist points out that millennials and Gen X got labeled the same way.
So how do you feel about it, and does your answer change if it's a hot coffee?
