'He should apologize to women and LGBTQ people, who are entitled to be treated with dignity and respect.' The White House asked Mike Pence to apologize for what it called a 'homophobic joke' he made over the weekend geared at Pete Buttigieg.

Americans lost $10.3 billion to a wide variety of internet scams last year, according to an FBI report released this month. The losses were the highest in five years, according to the annual report from the FBI. The bureau's Internet Crime Complaint Center lodged more than 2,000 complaints per day.

The missile test took place about 24 hours before the U.S. and South Korea’s joint forces started their annual 11-day military exercises, planned to be the biggest war games in five years. The launches also come alongside a historic security pact partnership to strengthen military capabilities to counter China’s attempts to dominate in the Pacific, a pact allowing allies to share defense technologies and equip Australian forces with nuclear-powered submarines.
