- President Donald Trump’s attorney tried to justify his bid to block Democratic-led congressional committees. According to Reuters, they are trying to prevent them from getting access to Trump’s financial records. Yet the U.S. Supreme Court justices did not go easy on the attorney, asking several tough questions. Trump’s lawyers argued congressional panels had no authority to issue subpoenas and no valid legislative reason for seeking the records. Unlike other presidents, Trump does not want to release his tax returns and other financial records.

- Allowing your kids to make decisions about food can lead to improved nutrition and healthier lifelong eating habits.
Experts say that educating children about healthy choices through example makes an impact on life long choices.
According to experts, "authoritarian" approaches to dietary decisions have been linked to kids eating unhealthy food.
Researchers said strict rules also lead to kids eating when not hungry and eating less healthy food.
Kids that are held to stringent eating rules are at an increased risk for obesity and eating disorders.
According to UPI, an overly indulgent approach is also considered unhealthy and does not provide enough boundaries.
Ideally, caregivers will find a healthy balance that will allow for the development of healthy eating habits.

- WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Former President Barack Obama described President Donald Trump’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic as “chaotic” in a conference call with former members of his administration, a source said on Saturday. But in his call on Friday with 3,000 members of the Obama Alumni Association, people who served in his administration, Obama urged his supporters to get behind Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, who is trying to unseat Trump in the Nov. 3 election. “What we’re fighting against is these long-term trends in which being selfish, being tribal, being divided, and seeing others as an enemy — that has become a stronger impulse in American life,” he said.

- The Justice Department filed a motion to drop its case against former national security adviser Michael Flynn. The FBI accused Flynn of lying to investigators about his communications with Russian officials in a January 2017 interview. According to Business Insider, Flynn pleaded guilty in December 2017 to making false statements. But then Flynn moved to withdraw his plea and his attorney asked for the case to be dismissed because of prosecutorial misconduct and entrapment. The DOJ moving to drop the case would demonstrate the FBI acted improperly and violated protocol.

- A new study says a mutation in the novel coronavirus could possibly make it even more contagious.
According to HuffPost, the paper warns of a mutation affecting the “spikes” on the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
This new strain has become more prevalent, which means it could theoretically make the disease spread faster and sicken more people.
However, the novel coronavirus' mutation into a new strain isn’t something extraordinary.
Any virus can replicate very quickly and in massive amounts, so finding new genetic sequences isn't unusual.

According to Business Insider, that hasn't stopped 32 states from easing lockdown restrictions.
Most guidelines suggest keeping social-distancing restrictions in place until there's a downward trend in new infection rates.
For instance, Indiana reported its second-highest number of new cases — 837 — the day that its stay-at-home order lifted.
When New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut are separated out, new positive cases are still growing on the whole throughout the country.

- Between coronavirus lockdowns and trying to save money due to job losses, DIY skin care is becoming increasingly popular.
According to dermatologists, making your own skin-care products can be a great idea. However, there are a few ingredients that should be avoided.
For example, lemons are very acidic and can leave the skin raw and discolored. Other ingredients, such as berries and spices, can stain.
Using toothpaste or baking soda to treat acne is a bad idea, because it can irritate and inflame the skin.
And applying raw egg to the skin can give you salmonella!
