Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the Secretary of Health and Human Services, faced over three hours of questioning at a House subcommittee hearing on Tuesday that covered everything from the shocking errors in his first major health report to his complete ignorance of federal lawsuits against major health insurance companies. But one of the standout moments during the hearing occurred when Kennedy suggested that a sitting member of Congress only opposed the health secretary’s actions because he was bought

Kraft Heinz promised Tuesday to purge certain artificial food dyes from its products by the end of 2027, a move that follows pressure from Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to excise color additives from the nation’s food supply because of potential health risks. The company said it will replace food, drug and cosmetic (FD&C) dyes with natural versions when possible; create new colors and shades, if necessary; or simply remove colors. Nearly 90 percent of Kraft Heinz prod

The Future of ‘Star Wars’ May Not Be as Connected as We Expect

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2026-03-16 07:30:04

One of the best, and worst, things about Star Wars in recent years is just how connected everything has been. It meant characters who may have at first seemed tangential, like Cassian Andor in Rogue One, could be greatly expanded in something like Andor. It also meant audiences who had never watched an animated show like Clone Wars or Rebels might be left confused with the stories in something like Ahsoka. In those cases and others, there always seemed to be some kind of guardrails on what was p

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2026-03-18 11:30:24

Fans can argue day and night about Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy but there’s no denying she pulled an awesome move earlier this week. As previously reported, the British Film Institute had been advertising that it would be screening a very rare print of George Lucas’ Star Wars from its original theatrical run.

Anti-vaccine advocate and current health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. took to social media Wednesday to announce the names of eight people he is appointing to a critical federal vaccine advisory committee—which is currently empty after Kennedy abruptly fired all 17 previous members Monday.
