Suns’ Grayson Allen ejected after shoving Thunder’s Chet Holmgren, as the veteran guard sent the center to the floor and himself to the locker room during Phoenix’s loss to Oklahoma City—an exclamation point that did nothing for the scoreboard except underline a bad night.
UK Government Blames Hereditary Peers for Workers’ Rights Vote Defeat in the House of Lords
UK Government Blames Hereditary Peers for Workers’ Rights Vote Defeat in the House of Lords, after Conservative peers—complete with their birthright lanyards—pushed through a 244–220 amendment forcing a review of unfair dismissal compensation limits that ministers want scrapped. The Employment Rights Bill now bounces back to the Commons for a fourth bout of ping-pong, stalled by the Government’s last-minute move to abolish the current cap (the lower of 52 weeks’ pay or £118,223) after already conceding a six-month qualifying period instead of day-one protection. Business Secretary Chris Bryant blamed Tory hereditary peers while advancing a separate plan to remove them from the chamber; 34 of the 202 Conservatives who backed the amendment were hereditary. Meanwhile, shadow business secretary Andrew Griffith accused the Liberal Democrats of backing Labour in exchange for five new life peerages and warned of “unlimited tribunal payouts”—claims Bryant dismissed as having “lost the plot.” With Christmas looming, aristocrats are still helping decide how much workers can get when they’re unfairly sacked—modern Britain’s idea of tradition.
Erika Kirk Delivers Forceful Critique on Fox News
Erika Kirk Delivers Forceful Critique on Fox News as the widow of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk pleads for space to mourn and condemns what she calls a “mind virus” of monetized conspiracy theories following what she describes as her husband’s assassination. She says her family and staff are facing doxxing, stalking, and death and kidnapping threats, and emphasizes that her team forwards every lead to authorities while refusing to scapegoat innocents for clicks. Many viewers took her rebuke as aimed at Candace Owens; Owens later posted a smiling response, effectively acknowledging it was about her. Kirk’s ask was stark and simple: let her grieve, leave her team alone, and let the investigation proceed with dignity.
House Democrat Files Articles of Impeachment Against RFK Jr.
House Democrat Files Articles of Impeachment Against RFK Jr.—because nothing says “public health” like a campaign Hail Mary. Michigan Rep. Haley Stevens has moved to impeach Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., alleging an “assault” on the public health system that she claims rises to high crimes and misdemeanors. Stevens is trailing in a Senate primary and, shockingly, Democratic leadership isn’t lining up behind her; Hakeem Jeffries isn’t backing the move, and colleagues are reportedly rolling their eyes at the blatant bid for attention. Kennedy, now serving in President Trump’s cabinet, is defended by allies who say he’s cut waste, updated vaccine recommendations based on newer science, and teamed with other departments to streamline food and travel policy. HHS calls the impeachment push a partisan stunt, and the odds of it going anywhere are roughly the same as a TSA line moving on time. Translation: Stevens may get headlines, but the impeachment—like her Senate mailers—looks destined for the recycling bin.
