Roberto Velasco embodies two qualities valued by President Claudia Sheinbaum: technical expertise and generational renewal. At 38, he is the youngest to lead the department in nearly a century.

The White House is making it clear that it's putting AI education front and center, advocating for its use to teach impressionable young minds despite the tech's shortcomings.

As a little girl in Slovenia, I had the same dreams as any child: to immigrate to America on a bogus "genius visa," to model acrylic sweaters in a catalogue, and to meet a rich man almost twice my age and enter into a financially advantageous marriage with as little physical contact as possible. I'd have my Barbie doll flirt with a small boulder, asking the boulder, "So, you're separated?" People would warn me, "Dreams don't always come true," to which I'd reply,

Denise and I met at our new faculty orientation, which seems like a lifetime ago, and grew up together as academics. She chose administration early on, and I taught for decades before giving up faculty status to become a full-time fellowship director. As she advanced from dean to provost to president, my role as the administrative "trailing" spouse altered in both subtle and overt ways at each new institution, but the core was always rooted in our dedication to the universities we served and to each other.

"Wait a couple of years," she said, before adding: "You don't do anything that serious in an early part of a relationship."

Donald Trump Jr.'s fiancee, Bettina Anderson, has joined his daughter, Kai, in using locations in the White House as backdrops for selling pricey merchandize. The Palm Beach socialite shared a selfie on Instagram Story, showing her posing in front of a gilt-framed mirror in the controversially remodeled Lincoln Bathroom, the Daily Beast reported. She's wearing a blouse and a pair of taupe-colored pants.

The organization was highly impressive because, on Inauguration Day, we had something like twelve crews all around town. Once they were set in position, they could not move. I was the person in the White House. I was waiting for the President and Melania to come back at the end of the day. It was kind of interesting. How else do you have the occasion to see the center of power?

When Michelle Obama ceased to be the First Lady of the United States, the fashion press, which had been watching her closely for eight years, began to notice two new phenomena: she no longer straightened her hair and her dress style became increasingly relaxed. Although she continued to convey a message of aspirational power, she no longer shied away from daring fashion choices that she would never have dared to make before.

In 2019, Carroll alleged that Trump had sexually assaulted her in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room in the mid-1990s; Trump promptly denied the allegation while deriding Carroll at rallies and in TV interviews as "totally lying" and "not my type." Ask E. Jean follows Carroll as she prepares for the trial, revealing why she buried what had happened for so long; it captures, too, her profound discomfort while she's badgered during depositions by Trump's legal team, and her eventual victory.

In the wake of a slew of artist cancellations, Kennedy Center leadership says it wants to book "performers who aren't political." Apparently, that ethos doesn't extend to its film programming, as the Washington, DC venue is set to host the premiere of a new Melania Trump documentary on January 29th. The film, simply titled Melania, will be released in theaters worldwide by Amazon MGM on January 30th, 2026, reportedly as part of a $40 million licensing deal.
