**The 101 shutting down! (where??) 

(CNN or theSkimm Mon 4-15-24) A major Los Angeles highway will undergo weeks of closures to construct “the world’s largest wildlife crossing.” Officials said traffic detours will begin today while crews work to create an overpass for mountain lions, coyotes, deer, snakes, and even ants.

 — overnight on weekdays for several weeks starting Monday. 

 The crossing will span 10 lanes of highway and aim to provide safe passage for wildlife – especially mountain lions (aka cougars — and it’s named after an old lady 84yo Wallis Annenberg) – from the Santa Monica Mountains into the Simi Hills of the Santa Susana mountain range.

 The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) began constructing the crossing in April 2022, CNN previously reported. As the project nears completion in 2025, the bridge will be covered in soil and native plants to blend in with the natural surroundings. THAT’S WONDERFUL! 

 Officials say major highways are barriers to wildlife, affecting animals’ movement and gene pools. … the project’s official website (101wildlifecrossing.org/about-the-project/)  says it will be the largest in the world and “will serve as a global model for urban wildlife conservation.”

Starting Monday, all southbound lanes of the highway in the Agoura Hills area will be closed from Cheseboro Road to Liberty Canyon Road for about five hours beginning at 11:59 p.m. PT on weekdays, according to Caltrans.

Closures will shift to northbound lanes as work on the crossing progresses, the department said.

“These closures are for the safety of the public while crews place girders over the freeway to construct the Wallis Annenberg Wildlife Crossing, a vegetated bridge across Highway 101 to reconnect wildlife habitat,” Caltrans said.


*Iran scare 

(CNN & theSkimm Mon 4-15-24) Iran unleashed a barrage of missiles and drones on Israel over the weekend that escalated regional tensions stoked by the war in Gaza. Israel’s war cabinet is determined to respond — but has yet to decide on the timing and scope. More than 99% of the 300 projectiles were intercepted by Israel and its partners, according to Israeli forces. President Joe Biden and members of his national security team told their counterparts the US would not participate in any offensive action against Iran. Meanwhile, reactions to Iran’s strikes have poured in from world leaders, some openly condemning Tehran, others calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and almost all urging restraint during a moment of huge tension in the Middle East.

Iran’s attack on Israel is raising fears of a broader regional war.

 Iran made its first direct military attack on Israel over the weekend, launching over 300 missiles and drones. The move, which injured a young girl, was in retaliation for a deadly airstrike — widely blamed on Israel — that targeted Iran's consulate in Syria earlier this month. With support from the US and other allies, Israel's air defense system shot down 99% of the drones and missiles launched by Iran. Now, world leaders are trying to de-escalate tensions in the region as many worry about how Israel might respond.

 US officials said President Biden urged Israel to use caution in its response to Iran. It comes as Biden also reaffirmed the US’s “ironclad” commitment to Israel’s security, but said the US would not participate in any counter-strike against Iran. For its part, Tehran said it would have a “much larger” response if Israel retaliates. Meanwhile, Israel’s war cabinet ended a meeting yesterday without a clear decision on how to move forward. The UN Security Council also held an emergency meeting over the weekend, urging all parties to pull back.

 Iran’s attack comes at a time when the region is already in the midst of a major humanitarian crisis. After more than six months of war, the cease-fire negotiations between Israel and Hamas remain deadlocked. Now, many fear that an escalation of violence between Iran and Israel risks triggering a wider conflict.


*Trump on trial by the criminal govt! 

(CNN & theSkimm Mon 4-15-24) Former President Donald Trump will make history today when he arrives at a New York City courthouse as the first ex-president to go on trial for criminal charges. Despite a blitz of last-minute attempts to derail the trial, jury selection is expected to get underway and will continue for at least a week until a panel of 12 New Yorkers and alternates are seated. The historic trial centers around a potential sex scandal cover-up that took place just days before the 2016 presidential election. Trump, who has denied having an affair with adult film star Stormy Daniels, is expected to be in court four days a week for the next two months. Depending on the jury’s verdict, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee in the 2024 election could be a convicted felon.

theSkimm: Former President Trump. This morning, jury selection begins in Trump’s hush money case, marking the first time in US history that a former president will face criminal prosecution. He faces 34 felony counts for falsifying business records tied to a $130,000 payment made to adult film star Stormy Daniels. Finding 12 jurors that are impartial to No. 45 could prove to be a challenge. The trial comes after several failed attempts by Trump to delay it until after Election Day. The trial will not be televised and could last until June.

…Oh and speaking of Trump, a new poll from the New York Times and Siena College shows President Biden is catching up, trailing Trump by one percentage point.


Tax Day 

(CNN or theSkimm Mon 4-15-24) Today is Tax Day — the day the IRS expects you to file your 2023 return and pay whatever you owe. If you can’t file your return by today, you should apply for an automatic six-month extension. Some people, however, get an extra day or two to file if they live in Maine, Massachusetts or Washington, DC, due to observed holidays. Most filers have until 11:59 pm today before being possibly penalized for failing to do so. Specifically, the penalty will be 5% of your unpaid taxes for each month — or part of a month — that your return is late. The IRS notes, however, that this penalty will not exceed 25% of your unpaid taxes. If you are owed a refund (like the majority of tax filers), the IRS typically issues them within 21 days of accepting your return.

**A couple of stabbings around Sydney, Australia! 

(CNN or theSkimm Mon 4-15-24) QUOTE: “In the darkest of times comes sometimes the brightest of lights.” — Ryan Park, New South Wales’ Minister for Health, commending the life-saving efforts of hospital staff following a tragic stabbing incident Saturday at an Australian mall. A nine-month-old baby was injured in the deadly attack in Sydney’s suburb of Bondi but has since shown “significant improvements” thanks to the help of medical professionals, the family said in a statement. (I think the baby’s mother died!)

Boston Marathon (WATCH OUT FOR BAD GUYS!) 

(CNN or theSkimm Mon 4-15-24) The Boston Marathon takes place today with around 30,000 runners from over 100 countries expected to participate. 

BLAH BLAH BLAH: The race, covering 26.2 miles and almost 814 feet of elevation gain, is considered one of the more challenging of the world’s six major marathons. The course starts in Hopkinton and finishes in Copley Square, with various groups starting at scattered times this morning. In the elite men’s race, Kenyan Evans Chebet is aiming to become the first person in 16 years to win the Boston Marathon three years in a row. However, Chebet will be up against Ethiopian Sisay Lemma — the fourth-fastest marathon runner of all time — and 2023 runner-up Gabriel Geay of Tanzania. As for the weather, runners are in luck this year: Forecasts in Boston show a low chance of rain and moderate winds throughout the day.


The 2024 WNBA draft will be held today

(CNN or theSkimm Mon 4-15-24) After a historic college basketball season, Iowa star Caitlin Clark is expected to be drafted with the first overall pick in the 2024 WNBA draft today. Outside of Clark, this year’s draft class is loaded with talent, with some potential franchise cornerstones up for grabs. Here’s how to watch.


*WNBA “star” Brittney Griner and “wife” Cherelle expecting first child

(CNN or theSkimm Mon 4-15-24) The “couple” shared the exciting news on Instagram along with a picture of them holding hands over an ultrasound of the child.


*Nike outfits, too immodest even for some of the ladies! 

(CNN or theSkimm Mon 4-15-24) Who’s facing backlash… Nike. US track and field athletes are criticizing the company’s Olympic uniform as sexist and revealing. It comes after images made public last week shared a first look at the track and field kits for Team USA, with female athletes calling them skimpy. Nike said it’s providing Olympians with multiple uniform options. It’s not the first time uniforms have raised red flags in women’s sports.


**Passengers can be removed from a flight for what they wear

(CNN or theSkimm Mon 4-15-24) Sandals are fine but bare feet won’t fly. Read about the turbulent issue of airline dress code policies. WOMEN COMPLAINING! … WHAT’S NEW?!

One sister of a model complained on Social media after her American Airlines passenger sister had to cover up her black sports bra and biking shorts with a hoodie before boarding an American Airlines flight to Cabo San Lucas in 2022.

Tisha Rowe, a Houston-based physician, also publicly criticized the Fort Worth-based carrier over a July 2019 incident in which she was asked to cover up her “too revealing” floral outfit with a blanket on a flight from Jamaica to Miami.

Alaska Airlines in August 2021, when police escorted a passenger wearing black shorts and, initially, a crop top off a flight upon landing. The passenger, Ray Lin Howard, a self-described hairstylist and rapper who goes by Fat Trophy Wife online, posted a video on TikTok of herself being questioned by authorities after the flight… views millions of times, shared 10K times(?) 

Some gal retaining high-profile civil rights attorney Gloria Allred after an incident on Delta Air Lines in January 2024. On a flight from Salt Lake City to San Francisco, Lisa Archbold said she was “treated like a criminal” for not wearing a bra under her top. She says she was escorted off the plane by the gate agent and allowed to fly only after she put a shirt over her “revealing” outfit. … INTERESTING quotes about “subjective” rules (DUH!) 

Before the Airline Deregulation Act in 1978, passengers in the United States paid top dollar for airline tickets – and dressed the part, too, donning three-piece suits, dresses and high heels.

Nowadays, comfort is king, and along with shifting cultural norms and trends such as athleisure, most modern-day economy cabins are populated with passengers wearing jeans, T-shirts, hoodies, flip-flops and sometimes even pajamas.


**Older folks workin’! Shoutout! 

(CNN or theSkimm Mon 4-15-24) 75+ — the fastest-growing age group in the US workforce, according to the Pew Research Center. Data shows more Americans are working well past retirement age for several reasons, including high costs and low savings. Forecasters expect the cohort of workers age 75+ to double over the next decade as retirement plans evolve away from pensions that encourage workers to retire by 65.


NOT READ: 


*Severe storms! 

(CNN or theSkimm Mon 4-15-24) More than 40 million people across parts of the Central and Eastern US are at risk of severe storms today. The largest at-risk area stretches from central Texas to southern South Dakota, including Oklahoma City and Kansas City. Some of the most severe thunderstorms are forecast across central Kansas to South Dakota, where damaging winds are likely. Even before the storms begin, winds will be gusting up to 55 mph from western Nebraska through the panhandle of Texas. The winds, combined with dry air and hot temperatures, will create critical fire weather in the region. Further east, the remnants of a separate weekend storm could pelt parts of North Carolina and Virginia with large hail and powerful winds.
