MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) -- Each day, PBS programming fills the airwaves of Alabama Public Television with shows such as "Sesame Street," "Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood," "Antiques Roadshow" and "PBS Newshour." Alabamians could lose access to those programs on state airwaves if the Alabama Educational Television Commission opts to become the first state network to sever ties with PBS.

Nick Fuentes claimed on X that "MAGA is dead," a cryptic tweet that followed a long day of bad news for Trump and the MAGA base. Earlier in the day, Democrats released a series of damaging emails between disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein and his accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, that implicated Trump.

Fuentes is a well-known white supremacist whom right-wing provocateur Tucker Carlson recently interviewed on his eponymous podcast. The episode generated a lot of backlash from conservatives and appeared to cause a rift in the GOP.
Despite President Trump's waves of pardons for allies and supporters who sought to overturn his 2020 election loss and his clemency for all Capitol riot defendants, at least one federal case with tethers to the 2020 election still lingered.

The threat was made hours after Chutkan was assigned to oversee Mr. Trump's criminal case for allegedly conspiring to overturn his 2020 loss, of which Jan. 6 was a component. In court Wednesday before Judge Keith Ellison, Shry apologized to anyone who was subjected to hearing her "abhorrent" voicemail, saying that it "was not and is not reflective of my character or beliefs."
