The assassination of Charlie Kirk dominated the news all weekend. As the arguments rage online, we unpack the aftermath and what it means for political discourse moving forward. 

Then, a royal twist. Prince Harry’s return to the UK may have changed everything—and yes, it involves a specific cake with serious meaning.

Plus, Jessie’s trend of the week: the 'mayor walk'. It’s power, it’s pep, it’s posture—and apparently, one of us was born to do it. (Mia, please sit down.)
