The last several years have been difficult for Celine Dion. The iconic singer lost her husband, René Angélil, after more than 20 years of marriage. In 2022, she disclosed she’d been diagnosed with stiff person syndrome, which ultimately led to the cancellation of her Courage World Tour. During this time, she was also raising her three sons, René-Charles, Nelson, and Eddy. But through all of her strife, Celine continued to look on the bright side of life. She made her triumphant return to perform at the opening ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. Celine’s also been a bit more active on social media, much to the delight of fans. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Céline Dion (@celinedion) Celine Dion Posted a Hilarious Instagram Post Celine Dion shared photos of her being pushed around backstage on a cart. She’s smiling and laughing and looks like she’s having the time of her life. “Just another day on the job… who says you can’t have fun backstage?!” She captioned the photo. Her fans loved seeing Celine happy and laughed right along with her. “Gosh she’s so hilarious! I love her so much!” One wrote. “Working with you, makes every job definitely fun,” another person shared. “They are so funny toghether And I will not Change my mind,” a comment reads. Of course, there are always the people in the comment section who want to criticize, like this person. “Why can’t team Celine post updates on Celine’s health and overall life? These old posts are ridiculous. Do better! “ They wrote. But a true Celine Dion fan clapped back and put them right back in their place. “What? What else do you want? Daily check ups? She already did and considering we saw her in several outings and Thanksgiving messages, she is fine. I love thes old pict, keep them coming!” We agree. Celine deserves all the good in the world, and if these pics make her happy, we love seeing them. This story’s featured image is by MEGA/GC Images.

WASHINGTON—Two California Democrats could run for president in 2028: Gov. Gavin Newsom and former Vice President Kamala Harris. Republican operatives must be thinking: Bring it on. Under Newsom, California’s image has become less golden than it used to be. The high cost of living has taken a toll. The IRS announced last month that California is the state experiencing the highest net loss of taxpayers, with one taxpayer leaving every 1 minute and 44 seconds. Nearly 39,000 Californians moved to Nevada last year. Hope that the Silver State newbies don’t bring their progressive politics with them. And good luck with that. The entertainment industry has been decamping from Hollywood for some time, but the decline of greater Los Angeles as an industry town accelerated after the Screen Actors Guild and Writers Guild of America strikes of 2023. On-location production in the area fell more than 22% from January through March 2025, according to FilmLA, which tracks filming in Southern California. California’s loss could be good for Nevada. Actor Mark Wahlberg and others have been working to turn the Las Vegas area into a more affordable home for the industry, a Hollywood 2.0. The Nevada Legislature, however, has rejected rich transferable tax credits as a carrot to create film studios in southern Nevada. Much of Silicon Valley’s Big Tech has decamped to the Lone Star State because of its lower taxes and less restrictive regulations. In 2021, Elon Musk moved Tesla’s headquarters to Texas. In 2024, Musk moved the headquarters for X (formerly Twitter) from San Francisco, and his personal home and other operations in Silicon Valley, to Texas. I’ll never forget interviewing former eBay CEO Meg Whitman when she was running for California governor in 2010. I worked for the San Francisco Chronicle at the time. Whitman told me how eBay executives had begun to talk about where they would rebuild if eBay had to start all over again. Whitman’s answer was not California. “Probably Texas,” she offered. Energy companies fled. Chevron left San Ramon, California, for Houston. California doesn’t look like a can-do state anymore. Consider the Southland’s inability to prevent fires from scorching Pacific Palisades and Altadena, as city, county and state governments seemed more interested in imposing their politics on the public than providing essential services and infrastructure. With all that failure, hypocrisy doesn’t look so bad. Republican rivals may not even bring up Governor Handsome’s infamous COVID-19 dinner with fellow big shots at the tony French Laundry in Napa, even as his team was lecturing Californians that they should not to have Thanksgiving dinners with members of more than three households. So run, Gavin, run. As for Harris, well, she will have to answer for her erstwhile boss, former President Joe Biden, who opened the border to millions of unvetted immigrants without any inkling of the likely consequences. Harris famously made a verbal blunder in October 2024, when the ladies of “The View” asked what she might have done differently than Biden and she answered, “There is not a thing that comes to mind.” California Democrat political consultant Darry Sragow wonders if, after losing the world’s biggest prize, Harris might turn out “to be a very different candidate than she’s been” if she does run for the White House again. Sragow warns against assuming Harris did not learn from 2024’s missteps. As for Newsom, Sragow offered that voters have been “waiting for someone to go toe to toe with Donald Trump,” and the slick-haired Democrat could be the man. Newsom has served as anti-Trumpers’ favorite troll. Sragow notes that while the rest of America may see California as cray-cray (not his words), events can change everything. Besides, Californians enjoy a balmy climate that New Yorkers and Washingtonians envy. The economic climate, I would counter, is another issue.

Shocker: Nobody Is Contributing to Build a Biden Library

Just over a year ago, the headlines were everywhere: Three Mile Island Unit 1 was coming back online as the Crane Clean Energy Center. A site that once defined an entire industry’s future has done it again, this time as a symbol of hope, optimism, and unity as we move toward a reliable and clean energy future.For us, young professionals in the nuclear industry, this moment showed what’s possible when communities come together. From union members and business leaders to viral social media posts and major media outlets, everyone celebrated the announcement of the restart. In a society often defined by polarization, this was a rare moment of shared pride and common purpose. We know that America’s ability to deliver reliable, emissions-free energy will define the nation that Gen Z will lead tomorrow — politically, economically, and environmentally.As 2025 draws to a close, nuclear energy sits at the center of a new national conversation — one driven by optimism, innovation, and a shared commitment to a cleaner future. Public support for nuclear energy is at historic highs, with six in 10 Americans in favor of its expansion. Companies that defined Gen Z’s childhood, like Meta, Google, and Amazon, are partnering with nuclear producers to power the data centers that keep our digital lives running. For Gen Z, this isn’t just about keeping the lights on: It’s about building a future where clean energy powers our ambitions, our communities, and our planet.Growing up, many of us felt politics was a binary choice — two parties, two options, and endless division. But today, nuclear energy stands out as something different: a safe haven for young people across the political spectrum. It’s one of the few issues drawing support from both sides, with the Biden and Trump administrations both advancing policies that strengthen nuclear energy’s role in America’s energy mix. For Gen Z, that bipartisanship represents progress, not politics. We know that America’s ability to deliver reliable, emissions-free energy will define the nation that Gen Z will lead tomorrow — politically, economically, and environmentally.Now it’s up to all of us to seize this unique opportunity and recognize nuclear power’s potential to redefine America’s energy conversation. Nuclear energy is more than a technology — it’s a catalyst for unity, resilience, and innovation. It can deliver on our generation’s hopes for a cleaner, fairer, and more sustainable world.Nuclear power doesn’t just create reliable, emissions-free energy: It offers countless societal benefits. Generating stations do more than generate electricity. They can also support system add-ons that produce clean water through desalination and help yield valuable medical materials for diagnosing heart disease and providing crucial cancer care. When we think back to history class, we learned about iconic generational causes like the space race and the wonders that could be unlocked in the internet age. Each generation had something tangible to rally around, something that brought people together to move the world forward. For Gen Z, that unifying cause can be nuclear energy: a reliable, emissions-free solution that defines progress for our time.RELATED: 5 truths the climate cult can’t bury any more Photo by Joe Sohm/Visions of America/Universal Images Group via Getty ImagesWe’ve seen it firsthand. We both took the leap to work in the nuclear industry, and more specifically, on a historic nuclear restart. Three Mile Island Unit 1 in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, closed for economic reasons in 2019, hurting hundreds of families whose livelihoods depended on it. Yet as energy demands surged, the world rediscovered nuclear energy’s critical role. This momentum led to the announcement of the unit’s restart exactly five years after being shut down.We are both at the beginning of our careers and hope the momentum we’re seeing now will carry forward for future generations. Being part of the nuclear renaissance, which is turning into a national movement, has filled our young careers with pride and purpose.Whether you are Gen Z or not, clean nuclear energy can be a uniting force in a divided world. The bipartisan support, private investment, and widespread public acceptance happening today didn’t happen by coincidence — it happened because people came together to focus on what works. We can’t afford to lose that momentum. Let’s build on it to create the next-generation cause: a nuclear energy-powered future.Editor’s note: This article was originally published at RealClearWire.

President Donald Trump promised "very serious retaliation" after an "ISIS attack" that killed two U.S. Army soldiers and one U.S. interpreter interpreter Saturday in Syria.Fox News reported that a lone Islamic State gunman carried out the ambush, which also left three others wounded. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said that "the savage who perpetrated this attack was killed by partner forces."'Let it be known, if you target Americans — anywhere in the world — you will spend the rest of your brief, anxious life knowing the United States will hunt you, find you, and ruthlessly kill you.'"We mourn the loss of three Great American Patriots in Syria, two soldiers, and one Civilian Interpreter," Trump wrote on Truth Social, according to the cable news network. "Likewise, we pray for the three injured soldiers who, it has just been confirmed, are doing well. This was an ISIS attack against the U.S., and Syria, in a very dangerous part of Syria, that is not fully controlled by them."Trump added that "the President of Syria, Ahmed al-Sharaa, is extremely angry and disturbed by this attack. There will be very serious retaliation," Fox News noted.Trump also said Saturday to reporters outside the White House that "this was an ISIS attack on us and Syria. And again, we mourn the loss, and we pray for them and their parents and their loved ones," the cable news network reported.Hegseth added on X: "Let it be known, if you target Americans — anywhere in the world — you will spend the rest of your brief, anxious life knowing the United States will hunt you, find you, and ruthlessly kill you."Chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell said on X that the attack in the town of Palmyra "occurred as the soldiers were conducting a key leader engagement. Their mission was in support of ongoing counter-ISIS/counter-terrorism operations in the region. The soldiers’ names, as well as identifying information about their units, are being withheld until 24 hours after the next of kin notification. This attack is currently under active investigation."RELATED: Trump warns Israel about interference in Syria after deadly raid, airstrikes The cable news network added that there are about 900 U.S. troops in Syria.More from Fox News:The U.S. had eight bases in Syria to keep an eye on ISIS since the U.S. military went in to prevent the terrorist group from setting up a caliphate in 2014, although three of those bases have since been closed down or turned over to the Syrian Democratic Forces.On Monday, tens of thousands of Syrians flooded the streets of Damascus to mark the first anniversary of the Assad regime’s collapse.Those celebrations came a year after former Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad fled the capital as rebel forces swept through the country in a lightning offensive that ended five decades of Assad family rule and opened a new chapter in Syrian history.The Associated Press reported that Saturday's attack on U.S. troops was the first to cause fatalities since Assad's fall.Like Blaze News?
