An Assassination In Broad Daylight. And What Happened Next.

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.)
