Epstein’s Victims Wanted Info on David Copperfield
Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty ImagesFamed magician David Copperfield is accused of grooming teenagers and assaulting young women he met at his shows over a decades-long period, The Guardian revealed.On Wednesday, the outlet reported 16 women shared allegations of sexual misconduct and inappropriate behavior by Copperfield, spanning from the 1980s to 2014, and that more than half of the women were under age 18 at the time.

George Miller’s ‘Furiosa’ Is a Blast of Relentless, Often Brutal Mayhem
Jasin BolandYou don't go to a George Miller movie for the expected. The Australian director is a master of the bizarre, and has spent his career making images that seem to come out of the deepest recesses of the human consciousness.In 2015, Miller did what many thought was unimaginable. He released Mad Max: Fury Road, his long-awaited, long-troubled continuation of the Mad Max series which he began in 1979. Fury Road defied all expectations with its wondrous symphony of action. But it also diverted attention away from the hero of the title, road warrior Max Rockatansky (Tom Hardy), and introduced this audience to a captivating new fighter: Imperator Furiosa, a bald woman with one arm played with ferociousness and a well of pain by Charlize Theron.Now comes Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, the story of that woman, now played as an adult by Anya Taylor-Joy, that premiered Wednesday at the Cannes Film Festival. Of course, Miller has chosen not to play the same hits of Fury Road over again—though, make no mistake, there are astounding sequences of vehicular action. Instead of the streamlined story of Fury Road, essentially a race back and forth to freedom, he has made a picaresque story of Furiosa's rise with a Dickensian flare. It harkens back to the more sprawling nature of the original Mad Max films, but it’s also a spiritual work that grapples with how humanity reacts to grief and loss— whether sorrow perverts you or makes you stronger—all while delivering on the visual spectacle you could hope for from Miller.Read more at The Daily Beast.

Trump Hints to Byron Donalds He’d Support Him in Run For Florida Governor
AMANDA ANDRADE-RHOADESRep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) has been rumored to be on Donald Trump’s vice president short list, but it appears the former president may have different political plans for one of his top young allies. At a fundraising event in New York City, which Donalds trekked north to attend Tuesday, NBC News reported that Trump asked Daniels if he’s weighed running to be Florida’s governor in 2026 at the end of Ron DeSantis’ second term. Donalds reportedly responded that people have urged him to make a run at Tallahassee. Trump then hinted at a potential endorsement should he opt to put his name forward, reportedly telling Donalds “he will have many friends in the race” if he does. Read more at The Daily Beast.
