Published by Daniella Wilson

Mike White revealed during the Survivor 50 finale on Wednesday night that his fellow players, Charlie Davis and Kamilla Karthigesu, will be featured on the fourth season of The White Lotus. The Emmy Award winner called into the live finale episode as he’s currently in France shooting for the upcoming installment. While speaking with Jeff Probst, the host asked if season four would encompass any Survivor cameos and if he’d be able to reveal exactly which players were joining the scripted series. “Everybody’s invited, but there are gonna be two contestants that we’re flying out to be in the show, and they are Charlie and Kamilla,” White said. White has famously featured former Survivor players from his first season in every installment of the beloved HBO drama. He originally appeared on the show’s 37th season that aired in 2018, which was entitled David vs. Goliath (he was labeled a “Goliath” thanks to his profession as a filmmaker). Season one of The White Lotus featured Alec Merlino in not just a cameo role, but the recurring role …

“I’ll let you know about it later,” Trump told reporters in Florida earlier Saturday. “They’re going to give me the exact wording now,” he said before boarding Air Force One. Trump rejected a previous Iranian proposal, but conversations have continued, and the three-week ceasefire appears to be holding. Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi told diplomats in Tehran that “the ball is in the United States’ court to choose the path of diplomacy or the continuation of a confrontational approach,” according to media reports. Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi, meanwhile, briefed EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas on Tehran’s latest initiatives aimed at ending the war, Tasnim reported. During a telephone call on Friday, Araqchi and Kallas discussed regional and international developments, according to the report. Source link

The Trump Administration Casts Out the ‘Soul’ of MAHA

The Trump Administration Casts Out the ‘Soul’ of MAHA

Published by Sam Flores

As of today, it seems likely that the nation’s next surgeon general will, at least, have an active medical license. President Trump announced that he was pulling his nomination for Casey Means, a wellness influencer who dropped out of her surgical residency in 2018, in a Truth Social post this afternoon. The move is the latest setback for Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s Make America Healthy Again movement, which has embraced Means’s criticism of the medical establishment along with her fondness for raw milk and psychedelics. Her book, Good Energy, might as well be MAHA’s bible. Vani Hari, an activist and influencer better known as the Food Babe, told me recently that if Means wasn’t confirmed, it would “ruin the soul of MAHA.” Earlier this month, the White House seemed to still believe that Means could be confirmed. The president invited her to a roundtable for several MAHA influencers. (Among them was Kelly Ryerson, who told me that the group made clear to administration officials that Means’s troubled nomination was killing …
