Following his January 20, 2025 inauguration, President Donald Trump delivered a second speech to supporters at the Capitol, expressing gratitude to those who supported him, especially First Lady Melania Trump. In a candid moment, he humorously mentioned Melania’s discomfort, saying, “I shouldn’t say this, but her feet are absolutely aching…those heels.” This lighthearted comment highlighted the personal challenges Melania faced during the day’s events. She wore a deep navy ensemble by Adam Lippes, paired with a matching wide-brimmed hat by Eric Javits and high heels, which likely contributed to her discomfort. The President’s acknowledgment of her pain added a humanizing touch to the formal proceedings, resonating with many who could relate to the physical demands of such events.

Boy, 14, Sent Text to Mom Before Dying in a Mass Shooting at Apalachee High School
A tragic event unfolded at Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia, when 14-year-old Mason Schermerhorn was among four students killed in a heartbreaking mass shooting. Before his death, Mason sent a text to his mother from a school restroom, expressing his fear during the chaos. It was a devastating final message filled with love and worry.
Mason’s family is now grappling with unimaginable grief. His sister, Alanna Wallace, shared the kind of person Mason was—full of life, energy, and kindness. Despite being diagnosed with autism, Mason never let it hold him back. He was learning to play the trumpet to be like his older sister, loved playing video games, and had a passion for visiting amusement parks. Alanna described her little brother as someone who embraced everyone, no matter their differences.
On the day of the shooting, youth minister Ronald Clark, a family friend, rushed to help Mason’s mother find her son. She believed he was safe, having received a text from him saying he was hiding in the restroom. Tragically, Clark later learned that Mason was among the victims.
The 14-year-old shooter, Colt Gray, will be charged as an adult. In the aftermath of this horrific incident, Alanna is finding strength through her friends and the memories of Mason’s bright, loving spirit.

In a cozy beauty parlor, three women find themselves deep in conversation, bonding over their shared experiences as wives. They chat about life, relationships, and, most notably, their husbands. The dialogue starts lighthearted but soon shifts into stories of suspicion and mistrust, setting the stage for a humorous and unexpected twist.
The first woman sighs and begins sharing her frustration. “Last night, my husband told me he was going to his office,” she confesses. “But when I called, they said he wasn’t there!” Her disappointment is evident, and the other two women listen with sympathetic nods. Her story is one that resonates—a tale of a husband whose words and actions don’t quite align, leaving her feeling doubtful about his whereabouts and honesty.
The second woman quickly chimes in, shaking her head. “That sounds all too familiar,” she says. “My husband told me he was heading over to his brother’s house, but when I called to check, guess what? He wasn’t there either!” This shared experience deepens the bond between the first two women, highlighting the challenges they face in trusting their partners. Their stories carry a relatable undercurrent of frustration that many married individuals might recognize: the uneasy feeling of not knowing whether to trust someone you deeply care about.
Then, the third woman, who has been quietly listening, surprises the group. With a confident smile, she declares, “I always know exactly where my husband is.” Her calm demeanor and bold statement leave the other two women stunned. They exchange incredulous looks, clearly skeptical. “That’s impossible!” they exclaim. “He must have you completely fooled!”
One of Samsung Galaxy’s best-kept secrets is the Secure Folder, a hidden space to store private photos, files, and apps. This feature adds an extra layer of security to sensitive information by requiring a PIN, password, or biometric login. “It’s like having a mini safe on your phone,” explains Galaxy user Sarah Lee.
Smartphones are packed with features that make life easier, but many of these remain hidden beneath the surface, often unnoticed by most users. Whether you own an iPhone, an Android, or a Samsung Galaxy device, your phone likely has some tricks up its sleeve that you haven’t discovered yet. Here are 10 hidden functions on your phone you didn’t know existed.
For iPhone users, one of the most overlooked features is the “Back Tap” functionality. With this, you can set up shortcuts to specific tasks simply by tapping the back of your phone. “It’s incredibly useful for things like activating the flashlight or taking a screenshot,” says iOS expert John Doe. To activate this feature, go to Settings > Accessibility > Touch > Back Tap and choose your preferred actions.
Android users often miss out on the hidden function, Split Screen feature, which is perfect for multitasking. This function allows you to run two apps simultaneously. Just swipe up to open the app drawer, select an app, and then choose the “Split Screen” option from the menu. “Not all apps support it, but for the ones that do, it’s a real game changer,” notes Android developer Jane Smith.
In his final hours in the White House, Joe Biden issued a series of high-profile pardons on Monday, shielding Dr. Anthony Fauci, retired Gen. Mark Milley, and other individuals who were speculated to face investigations under the incoming Trump administration.
The pardons were announced as Biden prepared to leave the White House, with President-elect Donald Trump set to be sworn in for his second term.
The sweeping order also extends to individuals connected to the January 6 select committee investigation.
According to the official announcement, the pardon covers “members of Congress and staff who served on the Select Committee, and the U.S. Capitol and D.C. Metropolitan police officers who testified before the Select Committee.”
However, the order notably excludes Special Counsel Jack Smith, FBI Director Christopher Wray, and Attorney General Merrick Garland.
These individuals, who have been the focus of speculation regarding potential accountability under the Trump administration, are not protected by Biden’s final executive action.

Tom Homan, President-elect Donald Trump’s incoming border czar, promised immediate mass deportations following his inauguration. In a Fox News interview, Homan stated that ICE would be empowered to enforce immigration laws without apology, starting with large-scale operations. He revealed that around 200 officers would be deployed to Chicago for a deportation effort, with ICE operating nationwide. Homan emphasized that ICE would target criminal aliens and arrest those with criminal convictions, including the 1.4 million people ordered to be deported by a judge. He noted that past enforcement was hindered in sanctuary cities, but now ICE would go after individuals in communities, potentially resulting in collateral arrests. Homan reiterated that ICE would be freed from restrictions to do its job effectively.
