In avoidance of a long and expensive court fight with the U.S. Department of Justice, the city of Ferguson has agreed to a package of federally recommended reforms to the ways in which its police department operates. The agreement comes after the release of a DOJ report last year that laid out the racial unfairness and misconduct of the city’s cops in harsh detail.

In a statement, the FBI announced the arrest of three more men who had been occupying the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge. They, like Ammon Bundy and the others, have been charged with felony conspiracy to impede federal officers.

The FBI is negotiating with the those still holed up inside Malheur Wildlife Refuge, OPB reports, after Ammon Bundy, through his lawyer, encouraged the remaining militants to go home. Bundy’s wife Lisa, however, in a now-deleted post on the “Bundy Ranch” Facebook page, apparently questioned the authenticity of her husband’s statement.

Officers with a drug enforcement task force found 100 pounds of heroin, worth about $14 million on the street, hidden in the axle casings and drive shaft of a pickup truck in Queens this week.

Instead of participating in Thursday’s GOP debate, hosted by Fox News, Donald Trump has said he wants to hold a fundraiser for wounded veterans. He should tread carefully, though: According to new reports, the Wounded Warrior Project spends almost as much on itself as it does on veterans.

In the federal criminal complaint filed against Ammon Bundy and his crew, charging them with conspiracy to impede a federal officer by force, intimidation, or threats, anti-Muslim vlogger Jon Ritzheimer is accused of harassing an unnamed woman for wearing a Bureau of Land Management t-shirt.

Through his attorney, Ammon Bundy has asked those militants who remain at the Malheur Wildlife Refuge to “stand down” and go home.

If Laquan McDonald’s death at the hands of Chicago policeman Jason Van Dyke hadn’t been recorded on dashcam video, Van Dyke, like countless officers before him, might never have been arrested or charged with murder. A new DNAinfo report on the state of dashcams in Chicago squad cars illuminates just how close that was to happening.

Following a meeting organized by the Arizona school district where six high school girls wore T-shirts spelling out the n-word (more or less), Don Harris, head of the Maricopa County chapter of the NAACP—who also happens to be white, and Jewish—commented on a reporter’s appearance: “Nice tits!”

If you happened to think America’s soul-searching regarding the traditions of the Greek system had in any way curbed the drinking and hazing habits of the fine youngsters inhabiting our fraternities and sororities, well: It hasn’t.

The once-heralded blood-testing company Theranos received a letter from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services this week outlining key areas in which its laboratory fails to meet federal guidelines. The notice, which is dated Monday, requires the company to bring itself into compliance within 10 calendar days of its receipt.

Chris Hughes, the soon-to-be-former owner of The New Republic, recently purchased a West Village townhouse for $23.5 million (after unloading his old Soho loft for $8.5 million). According to the New York Post, Hughes’ new lair on West 12th Street boasts, among other amenities, a functional underground tunnel between its main building and a “carriage house” on the same property. But that’s not at all! Here’s what else we know about Hughes’ new tunnel:

Since Amazon.com released over 50 pages of Kristin Cavallari’s forthcoming book Balancing in Heels earlier this week, a few things have become clear. First and foremost, as the title page states, the book is “not a medical manual.” Second, it has a lot of pictures. One of the most revealing elements in Amazon’s release, however, is a declarative statement Kristin made in the introduction.

The fees you pay to invest in mutual funds are “tumbling toward zero” thanks to the growing popularity of low-cost index fund investing and, more broadly, the growing realization among average investors that well-paid Wall Street guys can’t pick winning investments any better than you can.

Jane Mayer, a staff writer at The New Yorker, has a new book out this month about the political power of America’s wealthiest citizens, including the billionaire libertarian activists Charles and David Koch. Among Dark Money’s myriad revelations—we haven’t finished it yet!—is that one or both of the Koch brothers apparently paid a P.I. firm run by Howard Safir, the police commissioner under New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani, to dig up dirt on Mayer to retaliate against her watershed New Yorker profile of the brothers from 2010:

The band of armed anti-government radicals still occupying the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge are still livestreaming, and they claim they’re prepared to die in a shootout with the FBI. Excited, even.

A new bill proposed by Philadelphia Councilman Mark Squilla would compel music venues in the city to provide lists of full names and addresses of their upcoming performers to local police upon request. Finally, Philly may be rid of the filthy rock and roll and hip-hop scourges forever! You’re The Man, Squilla.*

Last night’s Donald Trump rally was interrupted by a splattered tomato, a term which is, perhaps for the first time, not being used in reference to Trump’s appearance.

Well, boy, hoo... this is embarrassing, but the Orange County Sheriff’s Department just lost an AR-15 rifle. Have you seen it? It looks just like the one up there. Uh, if you find it, could you give it back? Listen, I know this looks bad, but do me a solid here. They put it on top of their car and then drove off. I guess it fell. Anyone?

Another week, another hoard of lost, encyclopedic souls deleted by Wikipedia’s editors in cold blood. But don’t worry; though these bizarre, terribly sourced articles may be gone, they will never be forgotten. We’ve made sure of it.
