Boise, who was filming their run, recognized the question as an ominous sign – the veteran surfers are familiar enough with dolphins that Takeda should have recognized one immediately.

Fox News host Jesse Watters on Thursday revealed the "questionable quip" that got him pulled away from Queen Camilla during the recent state visit, according to a new report. Watters, who co-hosts "The Five," said during Thursday's broadcast that he chatted up the Queen about her visit to Washington, D.C., and made a joke that the royal staff found distasteful enough to pull him away from the Queen, HuffPost reported. Watters is known for making outlandish statements, but the "questionable quip" that he uttered in front of the Queen also seemed to embarrass him, according to the report. "So we're sitting down, and there's the Queen, and I go, 'How was the beehive?'" Watters recounted the conversation. "And she says, 'I'm glad nobody was stung.' And I said, 'You know what they say here in D.C., if the beestings won't get you, then the guns will." "You said that?" other co-hosts chimed in simultaneously. "And then this woman just starts pulling me away from the Queen," Watters continued, laughing.

Political analysts and observers were aghast on Thursday after a new report suggested President Donald Trump's family had engaged in a dubious deal. The Financial Times reported that Trump's sons, Don Jr. and Eric, had taken a stake in a Kazakh mining company that had recently been awarded a $1.6 billion loan from the U.S. government. The brothers reportedly bought into the company last August for an undisclosed amount. The report added that there is "no indication" that the Trumps knew the company was in talks with their father's administration, or that they influenced the decision to grant the loan. Even so, analysts and observers expressed their outrage on social media. "Not surprising. This family is beyond anything in the history of the U.S. Outright shameful," Martin Pelletier, portfolio manager at TriVest Wealth, posted on X. "Trump Cartel’s corruption is so vast and grotesque and shamelessly out in the open that it has an almost paralyzing effect on the senses, made worse by the fact that there’s no systemic pushback, no 'opposition party' or elite resistance or even the hint of accountability," Marm Ames, a radio host, posted on X. "A serious country would put these scoundrels in prison for life," podcaster Kyle Kulinski posted on X. "Just a coincidence," Martina Navratilova, a former professional tennis champion, posted on X.
