Dept. of Education mass layoffs
SUMMARY: The Department of Education, one of the smallest cabinet agencies, announced mass layoffs as it begins to comply with President Trump’s plan to dismantle the agency, which requires Congressional approval. Over 1,300 employees received layoff notices via email, with Education Secretary Linda McMahon stating the goal is to reduce bureaucracy to allow more funding to flow to local schools. Reactions have been mixed: Democrats condemned the cuts as an unconstitutional government overhaul, while Republicans supported the initiative. Critics warn that abolishing the agency could disrupt programs like student loans and funding for special needs students. A rally was held in protest just before the cuts were announced.

The Department of Education underwent massive layoffs Tuesday as it works to comply with President Donald Trump’s plan to dismantle the agency.

Tiger Woods says he ruptured his Achilles tendon, an injury that will keep him out of the Masters
SUMMARY: Tiger Woods recently underwent minimally invasive surgery for a ruptured Achilles tendon, resulting in his withdrawal from the Masters and raising concerns about his participation in other major championships this year. He shared on social media that the surgery was successful but did not specify his recovery timeline. Woods experienced pain while training at home, leading to the diagnosis. While his recovery is expected to be quicker due to the nature of the surgery, it typically requires at least a month before he can bear weight. This adds to his medical history that includes multiple surgeries and prior Achilles issues.
