The NBA hit Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant with a $75,000 fine on Friday after the point guard repeatedly made a gun gesture with his hands following a three-point score. The Guardian reported that the league warned Morant that the “inappropriate” gesture “could be interpreted in a negative light.” The warnings went unheeded as Morant continued to make the gesture in a Tuesday game against the Golden State Warriors and a Thursday game against the Miami Heat. In 2023, Morant was also suspended for 33 games, costing him around $8.3 million, for brandishing firearms while live streaming on social media. Addressing the incidents, the league accused Morant of thumbing his nose at the rules “despite having made commitments to the NBA and public statements that he would not repeat the conduct for which he was previously disciplined.” In a post-game interview on Thursday, Morant said he is “well aware” of the criticism surrounding his antics on and off the court. “I was pretty much a villain for two years now,” he said, adding, “I don’t care no more.”

In a post made to Truth Social on Friday, Donald Trump celebrated what was allegedly a successful attack on Yemen’s Houthis. The president posted drone footage of what appears to be a U.S. airstrike along with the caption, “These Houthis gathered for instructions on an attack. Oops, there will be no attack by these Houthis! They will never sink our ships again!” The black-and-white video shows an aerial strike and its immediate aftermath, but provides no further details as to where or when it was shot. The Yemeni government announced on Friday that a U.S. airstrike conducted earlier this week killed 70 Houthis, including field commanders, following weeks of U.S. airstrikes resulting in hundreds of Houthi casualties. It is unclear whether the footage Trump posted is from the April 2 airstrike referenced by the Yemeni government, although approximately 70 figures can be seen in the video. The Daily Beast reached out to the White House for comment.

Every adult knows that cleaning the toilet bowl is a necessary chore, but that doesn’t make the task any less unpleasant. Instead of easing the burden, most common toilet bowl cleaners tend to make the process feel even more hasslesome, repugnant, and potentially unsafe thanks to a surge of chemicals. Luckily, Krazy Klean has an eco-friendly cleaning solution to help make toilet cleaning suck so much less.

Krazy Klean’s chemical-free water treatment works like a standard toilet cleaner on autopilot. All you have to do is drop it into your toilet tank, and it will keep your bowl clean—no scrubbing needed. Here’s how it works: Water is full of sticky minerals which tend to latch onto toilet bowls, leading to a buildup of rust, limescale, and hard water stains. Krazy Klean uses magnetic fields to alter the structure of minerals in the water to prevent them from sticking. In other words, instead of removing stains, Krazy Klean helps ensure they don’t even develop in the first place.

Beyond making your bathroom upkeep easier, Krazy Klean also helps make your home safer, which is a plus for anyone looking to reduce chemicals and air pollutants in their homes. The brand’s mission is to reduce the amount of unsafe chemicals in our water. Traditional toilet cleaners can be unsafe for pets, kids, and adults, and they may have adverse effects on the water supply, making Krazy Klean’s chemical-free, non-toxic solution a much better option for anyone concerned about the planet. Grab yours today; you can help make an impact, one flush at a time.

After losing the sight in his right eye last year as the result of an infection and being forced to delay the release of his new album, legendary singer Elton John has shared his feelings with British newspaper The Times, revealing that he can’t read, watch TV, or see his children playing rugby and soccer. John told The Times, “It has been a very stressful time because I’m used to soaking it all up. It’s distressing.“ He continued, “You get emotional, but you have to get used to it because I’m lucky to have the life I have. I still have my wonderful family.” He added, while pointing to his left eye, “I can still see something out of here. So you say to yourself, just get on with it.” Despite this setback, he told the paper, “Here I am at 78, feeling better than I have ever been. This [eye] is a bastard, but we’ll get over it. There is a lot more to do.”

Sean “Diddy” Combs hit out at the Department of Justice on Friday, following a fresh batch of criminal indictments, arguing that prosecutors are invading his “private sex life.” Combs has been charged with sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage a woman in prostitution as well as fraud and using force or coercion to compel a woman to engage in sex acts. A spokesperson for Combs said of the latest indictments, “These are not new allegations or new accusers. These are the same individuals, former long-term girlfriends, who were involved in consensual relationships. This was their private sex life, defined by consent, not coercion.” Combs’ trial is set to begin on May 12, and he is currently being held in Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center after being denied bail multiple times, with a judge citing “very serious concerns” at the prospect of granting him bail. Combs, who faces life in prison if convicted on all counts, has pleaded not guilty to all charges.

Do you remember how old your underwear is? If not, it might be time for an upgrade. The problem is that the best designs are expensive, and the best bundles include pairs you’d never wear. That’s where the PSD Bundle Builder excels. The easy-to-use tool lets you choose a variety of designs, from cool to casual, for less than a single designer pair.

PSD was created by two college students who “could only afford one pair of Calvin Klein underwear to wear out on Friday nights.” To flip that script, they created a company that makes unique, comfortable, and affordable underwear.

The brand built notoriety after Stevie Johnson (Buffalo Bills) scored a touchdown, lifted his shirt, and showed off the PSD logo.

The Bundle Builder is simple. You can choose any four to eight items and get 20 to 35 percent off each pair. That means you can combine men’s and women’s pairs, cotton and cool mesh, and any patterns that speak to you. It combines flexibility with PSD’s premium quality. The result is a shockingly novel shopping experience that makes buying new underwear easy and (dare we say) a little fun.

SCOTUS is giving Trump the go-ahead to cancel $65 million worth of education grants linked to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts. MAGA won the 5-4 ruling that allowed them to terminate the grants.

The high court’s decision upended the efforts of a federal judge in Boston who temporarily blocked the administration for canceling the grants, which go toward teacher-training programs in eight Democratic-led states and aim to support people from historically marginalized communities.

Chief Justice John Roberts and the court’s three liberal justices dissented from the ruling. The case only involved the 104 grants in question but in total, the Department of Education has canceled about $600 million in teacher training grants since Trump took office.

SCOTUS’ move comes as Trump aims to slash university grants and use the Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to ax federal agencies. Although several judges have thwarted the president’s advances, the recent SCOTUS ruling marks a significant and first-time win in Trump’s second term and furthers his efforts to dismantle the Education Department.

Ex-NFL linebacker Dean Wells has died at age 54, after living with cancer for two years. The Carolina Panthers, his team for three seasons, announced in a statement Friday that Wells had died Thursday morning. He was diagnosed with leukemia in 2023 and received a bone marrow transplant last May. Wells began his NFL career in 1993, when he was drafted in the fourth round by the Seattle Seahawks, where he started primarily as a middle linebacker. Wells, who started in 49 games, led his team with 107 tackles in 1996, and 92 in 1997, according to The Seattle Times. He was a free agent when he signed with the Panthers in 1999, and briefly joined the New England Patriots in 2002, retiring before playing a single game for the team. Wells still holds a University of Kentucky record for most sacks in a single game—five against Indiana in 1992, according to The Seattle Times. Last year, he went public about his cancer in order to raise awareness about acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), a fast-moving cancer of the blood and bone marrow. He encouraged people to donate blood, join the bone marrow registry, and give to cancer research initiatives.

Eminem is officially a grandpa. The Grammy award-winning “Slim Shady” rapper’s daughter Hailie Jade Scott, 29, welcomed her first child with husband Evan McClintock on March 14, according to a celebratory Instagram post on Friday. Scott shared a photo of her baby boy dressed in a light blue hooded sweater and revealed his name to be “Elliot Marshall McClintock,” an ode to her father’s real name, Marshall Bruce Mathers III. “Happy due date//3 weeks earthside little e 🤍,” Scott added in her caption. The 52-year-old rapper shares three daughters with his ex-wife, Kim Scott: Hailie, Alaina Mathers, 31, and Stevie Mathers, 22. Hailie Jade Scott is the couple’s sole biological child, with Eminem adopting Alaina from Kim’s sister in the 2000s and Stevie in 2005 from Kim’s prior relationship. Eminem announced that his daughter was expecting her first child with McClintock back in October in his music video for Temporary (feat. Skylar Grey). The video includes the moment Scott told him of her pregnancy, and he is seen sobbing before walking her down the aisle for her wedding.

Netflix’s Manuel Masalva, 43, is in a induced coma following a bacterial infection. The Narcos: Mexico actor “was the victim of a very aggressive bacterium” after contracting the illness on vacation, according to his friend, Mario Morán. “My brother is fighting for his life away from home,” he said in his TikTok. “I want to ask for your support in this difficult moment.” A GoFundMe has been made for the actor who is in serious condition, raising more than $50,000 so far from over 800 donors to support his recovery and expenses. An update on Thursday thanked donors during this “difficult time” for Masalva and his family. The post also said that the star is on antibiotics as his family and friends wait for him to improve. Just two weeks ago, Masalva posted photos of himself on vacation in the Philippines, although it is unclear if that was the location he contracted the infection.

Olivia Munn is not impressed with Lauren Sánchez’s “gluttonous” all-female space flight, she said during a Thursday appearance on Today. “I know this is not the cool thing to say, but there are so many other things that are so important in the world right now. What are you guys going to do up in space?” she said. “And by the way, why do you need to tell us about it? You know? Just go up there, have a good time, come on down.” She also guffawed at the money the highly publicized event will cost. “It’s so much money to go to space. There’s a lot of people who can’t even afford eggs.” When Jenna Bush-Hager told her they were “going in glam‚” Munn was even more taken aback. “They said this out loud?” She added, “What’s the point? I think it’s a bit gluttonous.” The point of space exploration is to “further our knowledge and to help mankind,” Munn argued, asking “What are they gonna do up there that has made it better for us down here?” Sánchez will be accompanied by Katy Perry, Gayle King, former NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, movie producer Kerianne Flynn, and activist Amanda Nguyen on April 14 for the 11-minute space expedition on her husband Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin rocket.

Donald Trump fired off a furious response to the news that China is retaliating to his trade war by slapping 34 percent tariffs on all goods imported from the U.S. “CHINA PLAYED IT WRONG, THEY PANICKED - THE ONE THING THEY CANNOT AFFORD TO DO!” the president posted on his Truth Social platform Friday morning. China’s Ministry of Commerce said its tariffs would go into effect on April 10—the day after Trump’s 34 percent tariffs on Chinese imports to the U.S. will take hold. Beijing denounced Trump’s measures as “a typical unilateral bullying move” by the U.S. government and said the move “does not comply with the rules of international trade and seriously damages the legitimate rights and interest of China.” The chaos in global markets continued Friday as Trump’s trade war spiraled, with the S&P 500 plunging 2.5 percent in early trading. The slide comes after the benchmark U.S. index on Thursday saw its worst single-day loss since the COVID pandemic in 2020.
