A highway in Alabama was temporarily shut down after a runaway kangaroo interrupted traffic and caused multiple vehicles to crash. Sheila the kangaroo was spotted hopping down Interstate 85 in Macon County after escaping from an enclosure at a nearby petting zoo on Tuesday. Her daring escape proved to be so jarring that it caused two rubbernecking drivers to crash into each other, shutting down the lane. Sheila was unharmed by the crash, but her adventure soon came to an end after she was tranquilized by state troopers and returned to her owners. “She’s back home safe. She’s up. She’s not sedated anymore. She’s eating. She’s drinking. She’s not injured,” said owner Patrick Starr, who runs a pumpkin patch and petting zoo but keeps Sheila as a pet. “She’s a sweet pet. I’m glad she’s back home, and I’m glad everybody slowed down a little bit,” he added. “When somebody said there was a kangaroo of course I didn’t believe it, and nobody believed it. But I’m looking at him,” said Macon County Sheriff Andre Brunson following the animal’s capture. “We see a little bit of everything here.”

Actress Priscilla Pointer, who had roles in the television show Dallas, the film Carrie, and portrayed mother figures in several other films in the 1970s and 1980s, died Monday, her daughter announced. She was 100. Amy Irving wrote in an Instagram post that her mother died “peacefully in her sleep at the age of 100, hopefully to run off with her 2 adoring husbands and her many dogs. She most definitely will be missed.” Pointer had roles alongside her daughter in six films besides 1976’s Carrie, including Looking for Mr. Goodbar the following year, The Falcon and the Snowman (1985), and Blue Velvet (1986). Pointer was on the CBS show Dallas for six seasons, ending in 1983. For 32 years, Pointer was married to Jules Irving, the artistic director of Lincoln Center, with whom she had three children: Amy, David, and Katie. After Irving’s death in 1979, Pointer married actor Robert Symonds, the associate director of Lincoln Center’s Repertory Theater. Pointer was Steven Spielberg’s mother-in-law for four years in the 1980s due to her daughter Amy’s marriage to the director.

President Donald Trump knows who he wants to see elected pope by the upcoming conclave: himself. “Who do you see as pope?” a reporter asked the president Tuesday. “As pope? I’d like to be pope,” Trump replied without hesitation. “That would be my number one choice.” Ignoring Trump’s divine delusion, the reporter asked again who he’d like to see succeed Pope Francis, who died at 88 on Easter Monday. “No, I don’t know, I have no preference,” he said, before praising Cardinal Timothy Dolan, the Archbishop of New York. Trump, who’s said he considers himself a non-denominational Christian, is ineligible for the job as a non-Catholic, despite his papal fantasy. Popes have traditionally been elected from among cardinals under the age of 80, by a conclave of 135 voting cardinals. Dolan, considered a conservative within the church, will be among the cardinals gathering in the Vatican’s Sistine Chapel when the conclave begins on May 7. Their choice will likely determine whether the church continues along the relatively progressive path charted by Pope Francis—or if it will shift course back toward a more traditional doctrine.

Amazon’s stock declined more than 2% Tuesday morning after White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt took a jab at the major retailer, according to Forbes. Amazon is worth a whopping $1.97 trillion in total, which made the drop worth roughly $3.9 billion in market capitalization. The stock recovered and finished down only a fraction, however, after tensions between the Trump administration and Jeff Bezos’ empire smoothed over. In her Tuesday press briefing, Leavitt addressed a Punchbowl News report that claimed Amazon would soon start showing a breakdown of how much of a product’s price comes from the president’s tariffs. Leavitt slammed the move as a “hostile and political act by Amazon,” and President Donald Trump swiftly called Bezos to discuss the matter. The president later claimed that Amazon “did the right thing” and “solved the problem very quickly.” A spokesperson for the online retail giant told The Washington Post (also owned by Bezos) that the plan was “considered” for its discount site Amazon Haul, not its main site. They added the tariff price listing plan was “never approved and not going to happen.”

In her new memoir, Uptown Girl, supermodel Christie Brinkley reveals exactly how she uncovered her fourth husband’s affair. Brinkley doesn’t shy away from detailing her messy split with architect Peter Cook in her memoir after discovering he had been having an affair with a high schooler. The student’s dad approached Brinkley while she was giving a speech at a high school in the Hamptons in 2006, informing her that her “arrogant husband” was having an affair with his teenage daughter. “I was so stunned that I froze,” she wrote, adding: “When your whole world falls apart and you realize in a heartbeat you’ve suddenly become the cliche middle-aged woman whose husband is having an affair with a much (much) younger woman, what do you do?” She and her friends decided to look through the family computer Charlie’s Angels style, according to Brinkley, and found a “labyrinth” of X-rated photos and porn accounts. “It was so insane that it was almost funny and soon enough, the three of us were doubled over in laughter,” she recounted. What ensued was a very public six-year divorce battle, which included the matter of who would get custody of their children, Sailor and Jack. Brinkley ultimately won custody of them both in 2008.

The Los Angeles Times lost roughly $50 million last year, according to AdWeek, as its right-leaning billionaire owner Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong takes a bludgeon to the paper’s operations. L.A. Times Studios President Anna Magzanyan’s disclosure to staff comes after Soon-Shiong has tried to remake the paper he purchased in 2018 into one less focused on politics—or critical of Donald Trump. Soon-Shiong blocked the paper’s endorsement of Kamala Harris last year, and he has since added a AI-powered “bias meter” that reveals opinion columns’ political tone. He has also explored partnering with conservative podcaster and conspiracy theorist Candace Owens for his upcoming “LAT Next” venture. Soon-Shiong’s actions, alongside L.A.’s devastating fires that upended subscriber-dense neighborhoods like the Pacific Palisades, have pushed away both paying customers and advertisers, according to AdWeek. “I don’t see the paper having a very long life if this continues,” one source familiar with the situation told the outlet.

Perhaps this should be said with cautious enthusiasm, but it seems Desperate Housewives fans might soon be returning back to Wisteria Lane. In a report published Tuesday, Variety confirmed that a new iteration of the beloved ABC series is currently in development at Onyx Collective, a content studio owned and operated by Disney Entertainment. The outlet reports that the reboot is currently titled Wisteria Lane, and has Stacey Sher, Pilar Savone, Natalie Chaidez, and actress Kerry Washington attached to executive produce. Chaidez, whose credits include television shows like The Flight Attendant and Heroes, is also slated to write the reboot. Desperate Housewives originally ran on ABC for eight seasons between 2004 and 2012. The show was created by Marc Cherry, and starred Marcia Cross, Eva Longoria, Felicity Huffman, Teri Hatcher, and Nicolette Sheridan. It followed the drama swirling behind the perfectly picturesque lives of the residents of Wisteria Lane, from murder, adultery and everything in between.

A woman says Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers and other federal agents raided her Oklahoma City home and forced her family to stand outside in the rain in their underwear. The woman, referred to as “Marisa” by KFOR, had moved with her three daughters from Maryland just two weeks earlier. On Thursday morning, around 20 armed men allegedly stormed their home, identifying themselves as federal immigration agents, and ordered family outside before they could get dressed. “They wanted me to change in front of all of them, in between all of them,” Marisa told KFOR. “You have her out there, a minor, in her underwear.” Marisa said the search warrant did not include her family’s names and appeared to be for the home’s previous residents. “We just moved here from Maryland. We’re citizens. That’s what I kept saying. We’re citizens,” she told KFOR. The agents reportedly seized their phones, laptops, and life savings as “evidence,” leaving Marisa with no idea how to get them back. She said that before leaving, an agent acknowledged that the family’s morning might have been “a little rough.” Marisa called the remark “denigrating”, adding: “You literally traumatized me and my daughters for life.” The Daily Beast has reached out to the Department of Homeland Security for comment.

A majority of Americans view President Donald Trump as a “dangerous dictator” who poses a threat to democracy, new polling data has revealed—including nearly a fifth of Republicans. A wide-ranging poll released on Tuesday to mark the president’s 100th day in office found 52 percent of voters agreed he was “a dangerous dictator whose power should be limited before he destroys American democracy.” But while the statement understandably garnered a lot of support from Democrats, 17 percent of Republicans and 56 percent of Independent voters also agreed with the question, suggesting the floating voters who helped put Trump in the White House have already begun to desert him in droves. “Most Americans view Trump in dictatorial terms, and I think most Americans are concerned that American democracy is on the line,” said PRRI CEO Melissa Deckman, whose company conducted the poll. “It’s only been 100 days into the Trump administration, yet we’ve really seen a pushback among most Americans to the Trump agenda,” she told Axios. However, despite the setback the president still enjoys overwhelming support from Republicans, with 81 percent agreeing with the statement “Trump is a strong leader who should be given the power he needs to restore America’s greatness.”

The clothes and phone of a missing New York Democratic activist have been found, according to his family. Petros Krommidas, 29, was last seen Wednesday in Baldwin, Long Island, as he went for a training swim in the ocean for an upcoming triathlon. His family said it was part of Krommidas’ usual routine, adding that he was “not a stranger to cold water training.” They reported him missing the next day, saying it was “completely out of character for him not to respond.” The Long Island native and Columbia graduate was also running for a seat on the Nassau County Legislature. Nassau County Democratic Committee Chairman Jay Jacobs expressed how “heartbroken” the committee was over the young Democrat’s disappearance. He said: “Petros is a bright, driven young man who has been a strong voice for Democratic values. He is well respected by the community and represents the very best of our next generation of leaders.” Krommidas, from Baldwin in the town of Hempstead, spoke with the Nassau County Young Democrats the night before he went missing, posting about it on Facebook. His family is now asking for people to help with the search efforts by walking between Lido Beach and Jacob Riis Park in Long Island at high tide.
