White House faith adviser Paula White-Cain is being roasted online after a head-scratching attempt to burnish President Donald Trump’s religious credentials. Appearing on Fox News to speak with the president’s daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, White-Cain claimed the president attended church, Saturday school, and Sunday school “sometimes… three times a week” as a child. It was an assertion that immediately collapsed under its own arithmetic, and social media pounced. “That’s because he couldn’t f---ing count,” wrote Keith Olbermann, while others questioned whether the story made any sense at all. One user summed up the confusion more bluntly: “I’m sorry, what?” The eyebrow-raising claim landed just days after the White House quietly pulled an Easter video in which White-Cain compared Trump to Jesus Christ. The footage quickly spread online anyway. The moment drew backlash from religious leaders and commentators, who accused Trump’s inner circle of turning faith into a political prop, and badly misjudging the optics. Even Alex Jones broke ranks, calling the Easter spectacle “a manipulation of American Christians” and warning Trump’s team may be overplaying its hand.

Tori Spelling was hospitalized earlier this week, along with four of her children, after a car crash just outside Los Angeles. The Beverly Hills, 90210 alum was driving four of her children and three of their friends in Temecula, California, on Thursday when another driver allegedly ran a red light and slammed into their vehicle. The Riverside County Sheriff’s Office told People that deputies responded to the scene around 5:45 p.m., where they found two cars with collision damage. Everyone involved in the incident was evaluated at the scene, and no arrests were made. Spelling and the seven children were taken to the hospital in three ambulances and treated for injuries, including cuts, bruises, contusions, and concussions. The incident marks another frightening brush with danger for the actress, who previously said she crashed her car in 2011 while trying to evade paparazzi. The actress shares five children—Liam, Stella, Hattie, Finn, and Beau—with ex-husband Dean McDermott.

Lyma makes a strong case for laser technology as the next evolution in at-home skin care. Unlike many beauty devices, which use surface-level treatments or controlled skin injury to kickstart collagen and elastin production, the brand’s handheld laser stimulates cellular activity without disrupting the skin barrier, causing inflammation, or triggering scar tissue formation.
Rather than forcing the skin into repair mode, Lyma’s low-level laser technology aims to optimize how skin functions in the first place. According to research cited by the brand, the device may activate a significantly greater number of genes associated with skin health and longevity versus traditional LED devices, suggesting a more comprehensive cellular response. While independent data on at-home devices remains limited, the ongoing laser-versus-LED discourse is gaining traction throughout the beauty and wellness worlds. Lyma’s FDA-cleared “cold” laser has also attracted attention from celebrities such as Sienna Miller, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Martha Stewart, as well as renowned plastic surgeon Dr. Jason Diamond.
Now, the coveted laser devices are earning praise from those outside the aesthetic space. In a recent conversation for Lyma’s Science of Youths series, biohacker and longevity expert Dave Asprey drew a clear distinction between the two technologies. “Lasers have always been more effective than LEDs, but they’re much more expensive. So a lot of companies will use LEDs because they’re cheap,” he said, noting that Lyma’s ability to control depth and delivery makes it a more advanced option. He also raised concerns about popular in-office treatments that rely on controlled injury (e.g., microneedling). “Most of these treatments are going in, creating scar tissue underneath the skin or sometimes in the skin,” Asprey said. “It does make you look better because it can help reduce wrinkles, but it’s not healthy tissue volume.” In other words, while some treatments may deliver short-term results, they can come with trade-offs over time.
Lyma’s approach, by contrast, is designed to support skin health without that same level of trauma. While the device is undoubtedly an investment, it may appeal to those hoping to streamline their routine and lessen dependence on more aggressive (and often more expensive) in-office treatments. In fact, many reviewers say it’s actually saved them money in the long run by cutting back on in-office aesthetic treatments. If you’re ready to move beyond LED, the Lyma Laser Pro delivers a more advanced, non-invasive alternative that’s worth the upgrade.

Bondi Blocked From Fox News Interviews Over Epstein Files Outrage
Pam Bondi was temporarily forbidden by the White House from doing Fox News interviews at the height of the public’s outrage over the Epstein files, CNN reports. Todd Blanche, her deputy who has now taken over her job after her firing this week, was tasked with handling public messaging while her own performance was under scrutiny. Her tenure as attorney general never fully recovered from a “primetime flub” in her first month on the job, in which she told Fox News that a client list of Jeffrey Epstein was “sitting on my desk right now,” according to the report. That statement, hugely popular among Trump’s base at the time, aged like milk. The Justice Department and the FBI wrote in a joint memo in July that no client list existed, that there was no evidence Epstein blackmailed high-profile associates, and that evidence pointed to Epstein taking his own life. The memo contradicted Bondi’s promise to deliver answers about Epstein’s clients, which she told Fox months earlier, “Americans have a right to know.” The issue of the Epstein files would explode shortly after, fracturing the MAGA base and leading to immense pressure on lawmakers to pass legislation that ordered the files released. Others in the Trump administration immediately spotted an issue with Bondi’s doomed Fox appearance on Feb. 21, 2025, and that misstep only spiraled out of control after Congress passed the law mandating the release of the files.

Kim Zolciak has been temporarily stripped of custody of the four children she shares with ex-husband Kroy Biermann, according to court documents obtained by TMZ. A Georgia judge ordered that the children remain with Biermann from April 3 until the former Real Housewives of Atlanta star completes four parent therapy sessions, with the earliest possible reunion date given as April 13. The ruling comes after Biermann sought sole custody last week, alleging that Zolciak missed court-ordered therapy, spent two weeks out of the country, and saw the children only once during that whole period. He also claimed one of the children was bitten by a dog while in her care. Zolciak denied the allegations to TMZ, calling them “completely false” and accusing Biermann of trying to defame her. “I spent five weeks away working on two TV shows to support my family and make sure my children are cared for—something I will never apologize for," she said. The couple were married in 2011, called it quits in 2023, and have been fighting over custody ever since.

When I think of powder foundations, my mind immediately defaults to cakey, chalky, and textured finishes—the exact opposite of what most women over 35 are looking for in a complexion product. While they offer unparalleled staying power, traditional powder foundations have a reputation for emphasizing fine lines, clinging to dry patches, and making crepey skin look even more pronounced. But powder formulas have come a long way, and Laura Geller’s bestselling Balance-n-Brighten Baked Color-Correcting Foundation is living proof.
Founded by theatrical makeup artist Laura Geller in 1997, the brand has long been known for its focus on offering inclusive, skincare-infused makeup for mature skin (40+), though it’s developed a loyal following across all age groups. Its baked complexion products are among its most beloved thanks to their silky, cream-like finish. Unlike traditional pressed powders, Laura Geller’s baked formulas start as creams before being transformed into a velvety, demi-matte powder. The result is a lightweight, buildable formula that blurs the appearance of fine lines, texture, and pores without looking flat or overly matte. Instead, the self-adjusting pigments melt into the skin for a natural, second-skin finish and a subtle soft-focus effect.
Laura Geller.
Each formula in the baked collection (including the Baked Balance-n-Brighten Powder Foundation) is handcrafted in Italy using the brand’s proprietary baking technique, in which pigments are baked on terracotta tiles for 24 hours. The process helps ensure the powder feels more like a cream when it hits the skin, minimizing the risk of creasing, caking, or settling into fine lines. Reviewers frequently note how silky it feels on the skin, with buildable coverage that helps conceal dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and redness while softening the look of lines. “Absolutely love this product, nice coverage feels really light on your skin. I’m always getting lovely compliments about my skin when I have used this product,” one 52-year-old reviewer said.

Many also admit they were hesitant to switch from liquid to powder—until they tried it. “I have been using Baked Balance-n-Brighten Correcting Foundation now for almost 3 years, and I will never go back to liquid foundation,” says another five-star reviewer. “I am continually being told how youthful my skin looks, which is fabulous at 65.” If you’re looking for a complexion enhancer that’s compact, mess-free, and capable of delivering natural-looking coverage with a touch of radiance (without caking, creasing, or settling), Laura Geller’s bestseller is well worth adding to your routine.

Top MAGA Rep Busted at Spring Break Hotspot as War Rages

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise was spotted enjoying a beach vacation on Friday as D.C. remains embroiled in a Homeland Security budget shutdown and the U.S.-led war with Iran continues to escalate. Photos published by TMZ show the Louisiana Republican leaving a seafood market in Orange Beach, Alabama, with a bag of food, flanked by security and a driver. A spokesperson for Scalise told TMZ that Democrats were to blame for the shutdown and said House Republicans had voted four times to fully fund DHS, and would do so again once Congress returns from recess. President Trump has tried to patch over the fallout by ordering pay restored for TSA workers and, more recently, all DHS employees. But the shutdown has dragged on for weeks with Congress still away and no full funding fix in place. Meanwhile, a number of Trump allies have been seen enjoying their time off, including warmongering Sen. Lindsey Graham, who was seen riding Space Mountain at Walt Disney World, and GOP Rep. John James, who was caught pretending he was at a Tigers game in Detroit not long after he was seen in Turks and Caicos.

An Arizona police captain who tracked down Christina Marie Plante, discovered to be alive this week, 32 years after she was reported missing, said he was “dumbfounded” to learn the reason why she disappeared as a 13-year-old in 1994. “I guess she wasn’t happy with where she was living and who she was living with, and she ran away,” Gila County Sheriff’s Office Capt. Jamie Garrett explained to NewsNation. Her case was classified as suspicious, and officials warned she was endangered. Advances in DNA technology generated fresh leads, enabling investigators to locate her. Plante, now 44, confirmed that her own relatives helped facilitate her escape and that she has been living a full life elsewhere, dispelling the belief that she was kidnapped. “She said that was a long time ago, that was an old life,” Garrett said. “She’s in her adult life. She has her family now. That’s not something she even thinks about.” Plante has supposedly been using an assumed identity for years, which officials have not revealed out of respect for her privacy.
Tennessee Rep. Tim Burchett says he has received briefings on extraterrestrial life that would deeply unsettle the American public if word got out. The Republican told Newsmax that multiple federal agencies have shared chilling news about life outside of Earth. “I’ve been briefed by about every alphabet agency there is,” he said. “And, I’ll just say this, if they were to release the things that I’ve seen, you’d be up at night, worrying about, thinking about this stuff.” Burchett, 61, also claimed that he saw information just two weeks ago that “would have set the Earth” on fire and would have caused the country to come “unglued.” He also suggested there could be some truth to a conspiracy that connects the deaths and disappearances of scientists researching extraterrestrial life to the sensitive things they research. “The only thing that ties them together is that they worked on things that are dealing with outer space, whether it’s UFOs or nuclear secrets or what have you,” Burchett said. “But I think we need full disclosure.” The MAGA lawmaker has previously claimed that the U.S. government has recovered debris from alien craft and that underwater extraterrestrial bases may exist off the coast of the country.
Bed, Bath & Beyond is back. The homeware chain will soon return to shopping plazas across the country, its president, Amy Sullivan, tells Axios. The brand, which closed its physical stores after filing for bankruptcy in 2023, says it plans to acquire Elfa, Closet Works, and The Container Store, having already bought Kirkland’s on Thursday, paving a path to re-establish its physical footprint. The Container Store operates over 100 stores, which will become part of Bed Bath & Beyond as part of a $150 million deal closing in July. It comes as part of the brand’s ambition to become an “Everything Home” destination again, three years after it filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. “We really want to get into the home services business… It’s a way for us to get closer to the customer and something that is almost e-commerce proof,” Sullivan said. “If you put Container Store and Bed Bath together, it becomes the destination for moving or moving into a dorm.” Sullivan says the company will open brick-and-mortar locations as early as 2027.

Probe Launched into Mystery at Center of Fatal Airport Crash
Investigators are examining whether an air traffic controller stepped away from their console to answer an emergency phone line in the seconds before a deadly collision at New York City’s LaGuardia Airport. The National Transportation Safety Board is probing the late-night crash of an Air Canada flight into a fire truck on March 22, which killed pilots Antoine Forest and Mackenzie Gunther—the airport’s first fatal accident in more than 30 years. Sources told the New York Times that one line of inquiry is whether a controller left their workstation to reach a “crash phone,” a dedicated emergency line that, depending on tower layout, may not be within arm’s reach of active consoles. Two controllers were on duty at the time—standard overnight staffing—though investigators are also examining whether roles had been combined before midnight, a departure from standard procedure. The airport’s ground radar system failed to detect the fire truck because it lacked a transponder, meaning it was invisible to controllers. No conclusions have been reached.
A news host has suffered through a tough case of the hiccups while live on air. Jayne Secker, 53, struggled through her Sky News bulletin on Thursday, clearly fighting back hiccups. “The wait is over,” the U.K.-based journalist said at the top of the show. “After more than half a century, astronauts are finally on their way back [hiccup] to the moon!” On screen at the time was footage from the Artemis II mission, which is taking four astronauts around the Moon and back to Earth in 10 days. Secker was out of shot as a result, but the audio footage suggests there may have been efforts to suppress giggles in the studio. She paused, trying to maintain her composure, before continuing, “Artemis II are currently orbiting the Earth, tonight their rocket is due to change direction and head towards its destination.” Another pause followed. “Back down on the ground, the launch was watched by thousands, some of whom had traveled halfway across [hiccup] the world.”
