First lady’s office calls out T.I. for ‘disgusting’ video depicting Melania Trump:
“Like it or not, she is the first lady and this is the White House,” Stephanie Grisham, Trump’s communications director, told CNN in a statement. “It’s disrespectful and disgusting to portray her this way simply because of politics. These kinds of vulgar attacks only further the divisiveness and bias in our country — it needs to stop.”

Friday’s Mega Millions along with Wednesday’s Powerball jackpot, which stands at $345 million, are worth
more than a cool billion dollars.

In that split second, the officer showed restraint in the encounter, which was captured on a body camera video released Monday by Columbus police. He didn’t fire his weapon.

Duck boat survivor Tia Coleman stunned by legal maneuver invoking 1851 law:
The companies said the legal maneuver, filed in Missouri, will consolidate the civil actions against them and they plan to mediate settlements with survivors and families of the victims.
But one woman who survived the sinking as nine of her family members perished said the court filing finding her relatives “worthless is incredibly hurtful and insensitive.”
Ripley Entertainment, which operates Branson Duck Vehicles, says in its court complaint filed Monday that
an 1851 law limits its liability because the amphibious vessel was properly maintained and prepared for the voyage and after the sinking it is a total loss
