Ive recently decided linen clothing is not for me and not because I dont like the lightweight, relaxed look or feel of linen fabric.

Paula Kerger, President and CEO at PBS, speaks at the executive session during the PBS Winter 2020 TCA Press Tour at The Langham Huntington, Pasadena, Jan. 10, 2020, in Pasadena, Calif. (Photo by Willy Sanjuan/Invision/AP, File)2025-05-02T15:08:56Z The head of PBS said Friday that President Donald Trumps executive order aiming to slash public subsidies to PBS and NPR was blatantly unlawful. Public Broadcasting Service CEO Paula Kerger said the Republican presidents order threatens our ability to serve the American public with educational programming, as we have for the past 50-plus years.We are currently exploring all options to allow PBS to continue to serve our member stations and all Americans, Kerger said.Trump signed the order late Thursday, alleging bias in the broadcasters reporting.The order instructs the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and other federal agencies to cease Federal funding for PBS and National Public Radio and further requires that they work to root out indirect sources of public financing for the news organizations. The White House, in a social media posting announcing the signing, said the outlets receive millions from taxpayers to spread radical, woke propaganda disguised as news. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which funnels public funding to the two services, said that it is not a federal executive agency subject to Trumps orders. The president earlier this week said he was firing three of the five remaining CPB board members threatening its ability to do any work and was immediately sued by the CPB to stop it. The vast majority of public money for the services goes directly to its hundreds of local stations, which operate on a combination of government funding, donations and philanthropic grants. Stations in smaller markets are particularly dependent on the public money and most threatened by the cuts of the sort Trump is proposing. Public broadcasting has been threatened frequently by Republican leaders in the past, but the local ties have largely enabled them to escape cutbacks legislators dont want to be seen as responsible for shutting down stations in their districts. But the current threat is seen as the most serious in the systems history. Its also the latest move by Trump and his administration to utilize federal powers to control or hamstring institutions whose actions or viewpoints he disagrees with.Since taking office in January for a second term, Trump has ousted leaders, placed staff on administrative leave and cut off hundreds of millions of dollars in funding to artists, libraries, museums, theaters and others, through takeovers of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and the National Endowment for the Humanities. Trump has also pushed to withhold federal research and education funds from universities and punish law firms unless they agree to eliminate diversity programs and other measures he has found objectionable.Just two weeks ago, the White House said it would be asking Congress to rescind funding for the CPB as part of a $9.1 billion package of cuts. That package, however, which budget director Russell Vought said would likely be the first of several, has not yet been sent to Capitol Hill.The move against PBS and NPR comes as Trumps administration has been working to dismantle the U.S. Agency for Global Media, including Voice of America and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, which were designed to model independent news gathering globally in societies that restrict the press. Those efforts have faced pushback from federal courts, which have ruled in some cases that the Trump administration may have overstepped its authority in holding back funds appropriated to the outlets by Congress.___AP Congressional Correspondent Lisa Mascaro contributed to this report.

U.S. Central Command, the part of the Pentagon that oversees its wars in the Middle East, denies that the United States military bombed a target in Yemen based on posts on X from an anonymous open source intelligence account which identified it as a Houthi base before the bombing and apologized for their posts after local news reports said civilians died in the bombing.A defense official declined to say whether it was the U.S. that bombed the target, but said that the military does not use information posted by open-source intelligence accounts on social media to select targets. The defense official said CENTCOM uses detailed and comprehensive intelligence to conduct strikes against the Houthis. Its common for the U.S. to kill civilians in airstrikes, and it has done so several times in Yemen. On Monday, for example, Reuters reported it killed dozens of people when it combed a detention center for African migrants.The gathering and posting of open source intelligence about war zones on X and other social media platforms has become a popular, and lucrative, pastime. In the oceans of OSINT accounts on X there are people who know what they are doing, and then there are countless frauds and hundreds of amateurs.Last week, a small OSINT account on X apologized for incorrectly identifying a quarry in Yemen as an underground base after a U.S. airstrike blew it up and killed eight people.The account VleckieHond retweeted another OSINT account in early April with pictures of what both suggested was an underground Houthi base. Vleckie noted the area's exact coordinates. Last one Northwest of Sanaa, it said.On April 28, a U.S. strike hit the region VleckieHond posted. According to local news reports, the U.S. attack hit houses near a quarry. Vleckie and reporters on the ground in Yemen said there had never been an underground base there, and Vleckie apologized on X after the strike.Allright, time for me to go through the mud.Based on satellite imagery I'd marked this quarry as an underground base, and tweeted is out as such. I'm fairly certain Centcom doesn't take their targeting data from Twitter, but this still is a very severe mistake. https://t.co/Ze9hFNj4ko pic.twitter.com/cRgnXDx2KK Vleckie (@VleckieHond) April 28, 2025Allright, time for me to go through the mud, the person running the Vleckie account wrote. I should have never posted it. The fact that I took in from someone else who had posted it is not an excuse.Vleckie then shared receipts of two donations they madeone to Doctors Without Borders and the other to the Yemen Data Projectfor 500 euros. No more posting about 'possible' bases. Look for more concrete signs of these bases, most notably spoil heaps, present at even smaller bases, but not really here.Vleckie posting this started a news cycle, or at least a lot of discussion on X, about whether the Pentagon was using information from random OSINT accounts on social media to help identify targets. There was no evidence that this was the case, besides the coincidence of the area Vleckie tweeted about having been bombed, and their apology, which of course does not mean that they had anything to do with the strike. Its also worth noting that Vleckies apology had the effect of raising their profile in the OSINT world even though there is absolutely no evidence that the military bombed this target because of their tweet and its somewhat ludicrous to imagine that the Pentagon is picking targets based on the tweets of small anonymous Twitter accounts.VleckieHonds analysis has appeared in CTC Sentinel, a West Point published magazine. Journalist Michael Knights cited VleckieHonds work in an April 2024 issue of CTC Sentinel that used OSINT to detail the Houthi war effort.The work of one Pentagon affiliated analyst isnt confirmation that Americas military machine is scanning social media for targets. I'm fairly certain Centcom doesn't take their targeting data from Twitter, but this still is a very severe mistake, VleckieHond said in its apology post on X. The account didnt respond to 404 Medias request for a comment.Critics online and in the the media pointed to Knights citation of Vleckies work in a CTC Sentinel as possible proof that the Pentagon used the accounts work to pick targets, which is largely just idle speculation.The VleckieHond situation points to the problems in the OSINT community broadly and on X specifically. Its been something of a steady decline, really, Eliot Higgins, the founder of the investigative journalism firm Bellingcat, which helped popularize the use of OSINT on Twitter and more broadly for journalism, told 404 Media. Bellingcats success in using open source intelligence, video footage, social media posts, satellite imagery, and maps to do groundbreaking journalistic work has spawned an endless number of copycats and OSINT accounts, many of which do good work but many of which do not.The early days in the era of the Arab Spring and on through Syria and MH17 were very community minded and cautious, Higgins said. It felt like something new and yet also important being constructed. Then the Trump years ushered in this flood of chaos and conspiracism filling the roomnow suddenly everyone with a Telegram screenshot was in the analysts seat.There is a lot of AI-generated slop and outright lies on X right now, especially in the OSINT space. Musk coming in and taking over X exacerbated it, Higgins said. We've focused on moving our community onto other spaces, so there's at least some healthy spaces for collaborative work.Calibre Obscura, a well-known open source account that focuses on weapons, told 404 Media that the legitimate OSINT field itself is still healthy, even if X has become a cesspool. It has gotten worse, but not uniquely, it said. Its just more slop and propaganda like everything else.But the problem with Vleckie isnt that the account is posting slop or lying. Theyre an amateur sleuth in a field where the opinions of informed amateurs are taken seriously. At least seriously enough to end up in a Pentagon funded magazine. Vleckies X profile bio says Yemen things, learning as I post, Ceasefire now.And, indeed, Vleckie has spun the underground base mistake as a learning opportunity.So now to improve and learn from this: No more posting about 'possible' bases. Look for more concrete signs of these bases, most notably spoil heaps, present at even smaller bases, but not really here, it said in a long thread about how it will improve its processes.There should be rules, but theyre notreally universal, Higgins said. Thegood practitioners also tend to adhere to a pretty straightforward set of principles, verify before you share; be transparent about your methods; properly credit others; do no harm (particularly when it comes to people in conflict zones). You also deign not to speculate beyond the evidence. If its not confirmed, dont say it. In short, approach open source investigation as you would investigative journalism. If you wouldnt send it from an office where you have to sign your name to the work, maybe dont launch it into the world from an anonymoussecret account.Higgins began his career as an anonymous account posting under the name Brown Moses about the Syrian Civil War. As his profile rose, he dropped the pseudonym. Its adouble-edged sword, he said. Anonymity can matter a lot, particularlyfor those in hazardous locales or under repressive regimes. But it also provides cover forbad actors: people who game data, push propaganda, or chase clout with absolutely no accountability. If youre anonymous and responsible, well and goodbut if youre building a big security following, shaping narratives and making claims that affect the lay publicstechnical literacy, then you owe it. You cant say Im just some guy and amass views and attention. Where theres reach, theres responsibility, and a lot of that responsibility is being shirked right now.In Vleckies apology thread, they promised to raise its standard of proof. I want information on this page to be reliable, they said. I sincerely apologize for this error in my judgement, and it will never be my intention to spread false information here or elsewhere.All that said, the military has its own intelligence, and is not looking at Twitter to decide what to bomb.

Sign up for Dispatches, a newsletter that spotlights wrongdoing around the country, to receive our stories in your inbox every week. The director of Arizonas embattled Medicaid agency resigned this week, just as she was expected to face questions from lawmakers about her handling of a massive fraud scheme that largely targeted Native Americans.Gov. Katie Hobbs, a Democrat, announced Wednesday that she had accepted the resignation of Carmen Heredia, director of the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System. The governor lauded Heredias leadership of the agency while blaming Republican lawmakers for politicizing the confirmation process, saying it had become clear they would not confirm Heredias nomination.Sen. Jake Hoffman, a Republican and chair of the Senates Committee on Director Nominations, said in a statement that in responding to the fraud scheme, Heredia had poorly executed the suspensions of hundreds of behavioral health providers. Heredia had served as the head of AHCCCS without Senate confirmation since early 2023, several years after officials say the fraud likely began during the Republican administration of former Gov. Doug Ducey. In the year before Heredia became director, records show that officials were warned that the fraud was harming patients, but they struggled to respond and failed to alert the public, which Heredia did along with other state leaders in May 2023. (Earlier this year, a spokesperson for Ducey did not comment on missed opportunities to stop the fraud but said that the former governor went to great lengths to assist in Hobbs transition.)Under Heredias leadership, AHCCCS withheld payment to more than 300 businesses as the agency investigated allegations that they were fraudulently billing Medicaid for treatment services. Often, the services had not been provided, and business owners were accused of allowing patients to continue the substance use they had hoped to overcome through treatment.In a statement, Heredia said she submitted her resignation with a heavy heart and expressed concern that a partisan agenda had resulted in professionals being dragged through career damaging hearings. Two years ago, Senate Republicans derailed the nomination of one of Hobbs previous picks to lead the health department.Last September, more than a year after the crackdown began, the Arizona Center for Investigative Reporting and ProPublica reported that the suspensions had rendered patients homeless. Victims of the scheme, some from other states, were also left without access to the drug and alcohol treatment they were seeking. Over several years, businesses across much of Arizona, but mostly in Phoenix, reaped huge Medicaid reimbursements by enrolling Native Americans in their programs and billing the states American Indian Health Program at exorbitant rates for services, like counseling sessions. (The AIHP is a Medicaid insurance option that, until the fraud was discovered, had no set limit on the amount of money providers could bill for services.) At a news conference Thursday, Attorney General Kris Mayes, a Democrat, said there had been more than 100 indictments and 25 convictions so far related to the scheme. She also said she expected more indictments to come.AHCCCS said over the past two years that officials top priority was patient safety, and in May 2023, the agency set up a hotline for victims. It provided brief hotel stays for people displaced from shuttered facilities. However, AHCCCS said last year that it had no record of what happened to a majority of the hotlines then 11,400 callers, largely because after six months it had stopped tracking outcomes for people who did not stay in a hotel. According to available data, more than 575 people ended up without housing as of last September. AZCIR and ProPublica also found that at least 40 Indigenous residents of sober living homes and treatment facilities in the Phoenix area died as the state fumbled its response.A handful of the suspended providers, out of hundreds investigated, were allowed to resume billing Medicaid after clearing allegations with the state. But they said the suspensions still pushed them to the brink financially and upended their patients care, AZCIR and ProPublica found. As a result, Heredias swift and aggressive response to the crisis which authorities said was needed to root out fraud and save lives caused concerns that behavioral health care, especially for Native Americans, was increasingly difficult to access. Under Katie Hobbs leadership, Heredias response has been incredibly disturbing, to say the least, Hoffman said. We are left with a broken system due to Heredias mismanagement, and our vulnerable populations are caught up in this collapse.A spokesperson for Senate Republicans declined a request for an interview with Hoffman.While Hoffmans statement mostly focused on the fraud scheme that authorities say cost the state $2 billion, he said he also took issue with other matters within AHCCCS involving long-term care.In addition to Heredias resignation, Jennifer Cunico, the director of the Arizona Department of Health Services, also stepped down this week. Like Heredia, Cunico was set to appear before lawmakers for a confirmation hearing. Cunico said she was proud of her work at the department but made the difficult decision to withdraw her nomination after it became clear she wouldnt be confirmed either. Her resignation comes two years after Hobbs previous pick to lead the health department withdrew her nomination following a heated confirmation hearing. Hoffman said Cunico had defended public health officials pandemic response during meetings with lawmakers but did not provide details. Hoffman previously sponsored legislation that prohibited state and local agencies from enacting vaccine mandates.The governor defended Heredias response to the fraud crisis and said both Heredia and Cunico had worked on a range of initiatives, including improving access to maternal health care. Carmen Heredia helped root out a multi-billion dollar wave of Medicaid fraud and the related humanitarian fallout which the previous administration ignored, Hobbs said in a statement. Her work to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse in our healthcare system is a model for the nation, and she always ensured people who needed help continued to get it. She added, The Senates unprecedented politicization of the director confirmation process has ended the directorship of two healthcare professionals who have made our state government run more efficiently and more effectively. Christopher Lomahquahu, an investigative reporter and Roy W. Howard fellow for AZCIR, contributed reporting.

Elon Musk flashes his T-shirt that reads "DOGE" to the media as he walks on South Lawn of the White House, in Washington, March 9, 2025. (AP Photo/Jose Luis Magana, File)2025-05-02T20:29:17Z WASHINGTON (AP) The Trump administration asked the Supreme Court on Friday to clear the way for Elon Musk s Department of Government Efficiency to access Social Security systems containing personal data on millions of Americans.The emergency appeal comes after a judge in Maryland restricted the teams access under federal privacy laws. Social Security holds personal records on nearly everyone in the country, including school records, bank details, salary information and medical and mental health records for disability recipients, according to court documents.The government says the DOGE team needs access to target waste in the federal government, and asked the justices to put the lower court order on hold as the lawsuit over the issue plays out. Solicitor General John Sauer argued that the judges restrictions disrupt DOGEs urgent work and inappropriately interfere with executive-branch functions. Left undisturbed, this preliminary injunction will only invite further judicial incursions into internal agency decision-making, he wrote. Musk has been focused on Social Security as an alleged hotbed of fraud, describing it as a Ponzi scheme and insisting that reducing waste in the program is an important way to cut government spending. An appeals court refused to immediately to lift the block on DOGE access, though it split along ideological lines. Conservative judges in the minority said theres no evidence that the team has done any targeted snooping or exposed personal information. The lawsuit was originally filed by a group of labor unions and retirees represented by the group Democracy Forward.The ruling from U.S. District Judge Ellen Hollander in Maryland that blocked DOGE from Social Security systems did allow staffers to access data that has been redacted or stripped of anything personally identifiable.The appeal is the latest in a string of emergency applications to the nations highest court as the Trump administration faces about 200 lawsuits challenging various aspects of President Donald Trumps sweeping conservative agenda.

South Koreas first ever lesbian dating show is hitting pause after backlash against one of its cast members and fans are not happy about it.ToGetHer premiered on Wavve last week, with international audiences immediately scrambling to find ways to watch it themselves. But it wasnt long before accusations came out that one of the cast members, Kim Ri Won, had previously created adult content and dated men. There was immediately backlash, with some people insisting she shouldnt be participating in the series with her past, as well as theorizing that she was secretly straight. Riwon took to social media to apologize to those who felt betrayed by the things that came to light. She also acknowledged having dated a man while trying to deny her sexuality, but says she has since accepted that she only loves women. (@) The production company, ThisPlay, issued a series of statements denying that they knew about adult content. They vaguely referenced something that was initially investigated during the casting process and disproven, but said that whatever subsequently surfaced was something else of which they had been uninformed.Things got even messier when a fellow cast member, Hangyeol, posted a statement accusing Riwon of making an "inappropriate proposal." Specifically, it seems as if Riwon made a comment about traveling together and Hangyeol later interpreted it to be something more nefarious something Riwon has outright denied. (@) "hangyeol saying that riwon was trying to call her to the sex industry js bc she asked her out a date, bro wdym" (@) (@) The controversies ultimately led to the decision to temporarily put the show which has already been filmed on pause as ThisPlay considers how to edit future episodes with everything thats happened in mind.Despite the backlash Riwon has been receiving on Korean sites, sapphic fans across the world have largely pointed the finger at homophobes and misogynists for driving the drama, and have rallied to show their support. (@) "With korean incels on her ass and the person she trusted with also attacking her i hope that riwon knows she has an army of people who still behind her. Please be safe :( " (@) "i cannot support a show that claims to be for queer women but prioritises male opinions, so i will stop watchingshame on you. riwon and the queer women of south korea deserve better." (@) "The rumor of riwon faking her sexuality to join #ToGetHer for cloutwas started by the MAN who assaulted and threatened her and some yll believing him before even she spoke?!!!" (@) "i only care about riwons wellness right now, hope she is okay and have people that are with her in this situation. its such a shame this is happening to her" (@) "if they edit riwon out im not watching" (@) "BRO NO ONE IS PUSHING YOU TO GET TOGETHER WITH RIWON, THIS CHILD IS PISSING ME OFF. IF U DONT LIKE GETTING ASKED OUT FOR DINENR DECLINE HER IN UR DMS NOT AIR OUT UR BUSINESS AHhhhhHhHhHhhHh" (@) "i feel so bad about riwon and the all #ToGetHer casts. they've been harrased by korean cishet hannams constantly and riwon got accused being camgirl then suddenly questioning her sexuality...? damn being women specifically LESBIAN are so hard in korea FREE MY WOMEN" (@) "This was supposed to be our cute little lesbian dating show but of course men ruined it for us all my heart breaks for Riwon and all the Korean women who have to live in such a misogynistic and homophobic society" (@) "what is the point of her story like its very immature to throw riwon under the bus like that, thats why they shouldnt cast people born after camp rock in dating shows" (@) "As a lesbian woman, it just hurts to see SK first Lesbian reality show be bought down by negative people and homophobic. Riwon deserves better, she's just a woman trying to start fresh and be a woman who loves women. I hate men and homophobic women."ToGetHer is expected to resume airing next week, but details beyond that remain up in the air.
