A new California law mandates that employers provide a minimum of five sick days per year starting in 2024.

President Joe Biden had an off-schedule lunch with unnamed scholars and historians Wednesday as the third anniversary of Jan. 6 comes into view. A Biden administration official resigned over the administration's stance on the war in Gaza.  The United States's response to the ongoing series of Houthi attacks against commercial vessels in the Red Sea has been "very insufficient," according to former Defense Secretary Mark Esper.

An American couple has been stranded in Turkey and could soon be “homeless” if they do not receive an $80,000 refund for the three-year cruise they booked that has since fallen through.

“Friends” alumnus David Schwimmer took to Instagram on Friday to call out people who continued to deny increasing reports and evidence that the terror group Hamas used sexual violence as a weapon against Israeli women — both during the October 7th attacks and on hostages in Gaza. Israel and Hamas began their bloodiest war yet, while Sudan collapsed into civil war, and Azerbaijan conquered Nagorno-Karabakh in a lightning campaign. The wars in Ukraine and Myanmar raged on, while those in Syria, Somalia, and Nigeria simmered. California is ushering in 2024 with free healthcare for more than 700,000 migrants living illegally in the Golden State as the state is faced with a looming $68 billion deficit.

The ex-president unleashed an online torrent of fury and bitterness, largely over his legal plights, spanning Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, previewing the discord and personal obsessions he will inflict on the nation in a pivotal election year in 2024.  Hunger, poverty and homelessness affect every nation — even the richest and most powerful. In 2022, 11.5% of the U.S. population lived in poverty. As we continue to deal with the economic fallout of inflation, it’s important to help our existing impoverished population and ensure we minimize the number of new people who fall into poverty. Another dubious distinction for Fresno. The personal finance company Wallet Hub says Fresno has the highest homeless rate in the nation.
