Are Swifties ... ready for it?

Swifties, rejoice for a new album! Trump teases a change in federal drug policy. And a new parents' right issue on education is emerging. 👋 Hi! Rebecca Morin here. It's time for Tuesday's news! But first: A bird? A plane? A fireball! ☄️ A meteorite "crash landed" on a home in Georgia, and experts say it's older than Earth itself. The start of a new era The color is orange. The era is: "The Life of a Showgirl." Taylor Swift confirmed her new album at 12:12 a.m. ET on Tuesday on a teaser for the "New Heights" podcast, a podcast hosted by Travis and Jason Kelce. The singer pulled out a blurred-out album cover for her new project, which would be her 12th album. Fans can preorder the album on but no release date has been shared yet. The announcement was teased on Monday by Taylor Nation, the pop superstar's in-house marketing team. In an Instagram post, the account posted: "Thinking about when she said 'See you next era…' ❤️‍🔥" with a carousel of 12 photos. 🎵 The easter eggs hinting at TS12. A storm in the Atlantic Tropical Storm Erin is expected to pick up strength over the next couple of days, becoming a full-fledged hurricane, the National Hurricane Center said. In a Tuesday morning advisory, the hurricane center said Erin was located about 690 miles west of the Cabo Verde Islands with maximum sustained winds near 45 mph. Forecasters said Erin is moving west at 22 mph, and this motion is expected to continue for the next several days. But where will it hit? Truth is, it's too early to know what impact Erin could have on the Caribbean or the eastern United States. 🌧️ See the likely path the storm could take. Real quick Buying or selling a car? Check out USA TODAY's new Cars hub for buyer guides, vehicle reviews, tips and more. Is a marijuana policy shift on the schedule? In the coming weeks, marijuana could be considered a less dangerous drug, at least as far as the federal government is concerned. President Donald Trump on Monday said the government is considering reclassifying marijuana, which would remove it from the list of the most dangerous and addictive substances. Moves to reschedule the drug − which would not make it legal under federal law − began during the Biden administration. Experts say the change could be good for research and medicine, but could also be perceived as a 'safety endorsement" at a time when rates of heavy cannabis use are climbing. 👉 What to know about the proposed change. The next education issue Summer is coming to an end, and it's back-to-school time for many families. But for Jennifer Lilintahl, who decided to delay her daughter's entry into kindergarten last year, it's been a challenge. When Lilintahl tried to enroll her 6-year-old daughter in kindergarten, DC Public Schools officials said she'd have to enter first grade due to her age. Delaying kindergarten for one year, a process known as 'redshirting,' is one of the latest issues for the growing parents' rights movement, which has been dominated by public school parents who want more control over what their children learn and where they go to school. Some argue their kids need an additional year in prekindergarten. But others say it creates an unfair advantage over those who don't have the resources to delay schooling. 👉 See where 'redshirting' is allowed.

Lisa Kudrow's Impersonation Of A Far-Right MAGA Spokesperson Is Going Viral Because People Say It's Like "Literally Every Republican"

A resurfaced clip of Lisa Kudrow doing a satirical impersonation of a far-right Republican spokesperson failing to debunk claims against the party is going viral thanks to a new tweet insisting she "nailed" the character. The impersonation comes from Kudrow's role in the Netflix mockumentary Death to 2020. And though the film released in that same year, people online can't help but feel striking similarities between Kudrow's character and the Trump administration today. To start, in the video, Kudrow, aka "Un-Official Spokesperson" Jeanetta Grace Susan, tells cameramen, "The whole impeachment thing was baseless, OK? So, the Democrats claim that Trump pressured Ukraine into digging up dirt on the Biden family. And their only real evidence of that is a transcript of him doing it." Related: Someone offscreen asks Jeanetta what was said on the transcript, to which the character replies, "What transcript?" She's then pressed about the transcript she just mentioned, but Jeanetta doubles down by insisting, "Check your tape, I said no such thing." "You said the only real evidence is a transcript of Trump pressurizing Ukraine," the person off-camera responds. To which Jeanetta says, "There's no such place as Ukraine." Later, she's asked, "In March, the president said the pandemic would simply get out of the way, didn't he?" Jeanetta responds, "OK, see, this is what the media does. You lie, fabricate, fantasize. The president never said that." She's then played a clip of the president saying exactly that. "OK, I know this doesn't fit with your agenda," Jeanetta snaps back. "But this never happened." Related: By the end of the video, which has been viewed nearly one million times since it was shared on X, Kudrow claims she has "never supported Trump." The questioner behind the camera reminds Jeanetta that she was, in fact, a part of Trump's campaign. Cleverly, Jeanetta, aka Kudrow, shoots back, "Who's Trump?" Related: In light of recent flip-flopping on the 'Epstein files' — you know, when Attorney General Pam Bondi claimed to have a "client list" of Jeffrey Epstein's on her desk, ready for review, only for the Department of Justice to release a memo stating there is no evidence of a client list — internet users latched on to the clip. The original tweeter said the clip reminded them of "literally every Republican." Others thought the clip reminded them of a very specific Republican: White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt. Mostly, people thought the similarities between the satire and real life were "hysterical and depressing at the same time." Related: On person wrote, "Oh my God! This is my experience of trying to reason with a MAGA, fact-check with a MAGA, and even trying to do some critical thinking with a MAGA. I have given up. I don't know what is up in their heads, but it is not brains or the gift of reason. I am beginning to believe that they are not just stupid and ignorant, but they just do not take in any information that is going to challenge their current mindset." "We literally listen to this everyday. MAGA believe and stake their lives on memes, but call any reporting or data into question and often see document records as a compelling reason to believe the opposite of what they indicate," another agreed. Overall, life felt better when this was all just a parody. What are your thoughts? Let us know in the comments. Also in In the News: Also in In the News: Also in In the News:
