Across the US, high school graduations are serving dual roles as rites of passage for teenagers entering adulthood and memorials for those who were killed – often with guns – before they could don their caps and gowns. Amid rows of optimistic graduates are empty seats adorned with regalia or grieving parents who are there to walk the stage and accept diplomas on their children’s behalf. Some of the youths were killed before they reached their senior year, others in the days, weeks or months leading to their graduation.

Mike Pence appears to have had a sudden change of heart over his thoughts on Donald Trump’s handling of classified documents. After arguing that bringing federal criminal charges against the former president would send a “terrible message to the world” last week, the former vice president has now said that he “can’t defend” his ex-boss’s alleged actions laid out in the indictment. “Having read the indictment, these are very serious allegations,” Mr Pence told The Wall Street Journal’s Editorial Board on Tuesday.

House Republicans are mounting an all-out campaign to attack the special counsel’s investigation into former President Donald Trump and looking to use every tool at their disposal to undermine its findings – from subpoenas to the power of the purse strings. House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan is exploring ways to force Jack Smith to testify or provide information about the special counsel probe of Trump’s handling of classified documents, according to multiple GOP sources familiar with his thinking. Jordan has already demanded the Department of Justice turn over a slew of documents related to the scope of the probe, which Jordan said he wants first, and the execution of the search warrant for Mar-a-Lago.

A Chinese airline is facing backlash over a new policy that will see flight attendants suspended if they exceed weight limits. News of Hainan Airlines’s “weight reference standard” went viral on Chinese social media after it was announced earlier this month, while the carrier has doubled-down and defended its plans. The weight requirement will be calculated by an individual’s height, reports CNN. For example, a flight attendant who is 1.58 metres (5ft 2in) tall – the average height of a Chinese adult woman – would be required to weigh around 48kg (7st 6lbs).

Greene took offense to the LGBTQ flag outside the Gaylord Texas Resort & Convention Center in Grapevine, Texas, during her talk there at a conference hosted by the right-wing college group Turning Point USA. “Shame on them. Shame on them. Shame on them for hanging that flag out there. Shame on them,” ranted Greene, who has a history of homophobic rants. “The only flags that should ever be hung are our United States flag and a state flag, so shame on the Gaylord,” Greene continued. She told the audience: “I’m surprised one of y’all hasn’t shimmied up that flag pole yet and taken it down.” READ MORE https://news.yahoo.com/rep-marjorie-taylor-greenes-rainbow-093117694.html
