Ashley Madison was a website where men could sign up anonymously to cheat on their wives. It was also a scam. The site was unscrupulous at its core, which makes this CNN report that Ashley Madison customer service reps essentially blackmailed its customers surprising only for its baldfaced audacity.

Hours after the Dallas Police Department sparked a manhunt for Mark Hughes, a protester who was carrying a licensed and unloaded rifle at yesterday’s march through downtown where five officers were killed, a tweet urging followers to “help us find him!” is still online. Hughes was not in fact involved with the shooting, and his attorney said that he’s received “thousands” of death threats after being misidentified.

George Washington, who died 217 years ago of acute laryngitis, will be the first speaker at this year’s Republican National Convention. And as of right now, dead former President George Washington is also the only speaker, according to the official RNC app.

This week The Politico published what was either an extremely dumb mistake or a Donald Trump-authored piece of slash fiction—a story identifying Ivanka Trump as Donald Trump’s wife.

The Supreme Court may have struck down abortion regulations that would have shut down all but five clinics providing termination of pregnancy services in Texas, but there’s always going to be new abortion regulations in Texas. The latest requires the fetal tissue to be buried or cremated, regardless of the period of gestation, the AP reports.

On Thursday afternoon, Atlanta mayor Kasim Reed said that Atlanta police have referred the case of a black man found hanging from a tree in a city park to the FBI for further investigation.

Over the last six years, according to a new audit from the city comptroller, New York City has missed out on $59.2 million in tax revenue because it forgot to stop giving tax breaks, intended for senior citizen homeowners, to recipients who had died. From the Associated Press:

During a press conference Friday, Dallas Police Chief David O. Brown revealed that the fourth suspect in the Dallas attack died not by a self-inflicted gunshot wound, as had previously been reported, but by a bomb detonated by police officers. It appears to be the first time law enforcement has used such a tactic on U.S. soil.

The local NBC affiliate KARE has a recording of what seems to be police scanner audio from the moments before St. Anthony police officers stopped Philando Castile on Wednesday. “The two occupants just look like people who have been involved in a robbery,” a man can be heard saying on the tape. “The driver looked more like one of our suspects, just ‘cause of the wide-set nose.”

This morning, Donald Trump released a statement addressing last night’s shooting of police officers in Dallas, as well as the deaths of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile. Contrary to Trump’s general campaign strategy, the statement attempts to position him as “presidential,” which makes it all the more appropriate that there is one giant screw up.

At a press conference on Friday morning, Dallas police chief David Brown described statements one of Thursday’s attackers made to negotiators before he was killed. Update (11:15 am): CBS News has identified the suspect as 25-year-old Micah Xavier Johnson, of Mesquite, Texas, a Dallas suburb.

Mark Hughes, the brother of protest organizer Cory Hughes, has been released from police custody after being identified as a suspect in Thursday night’s shootout in Dallas. “I just got out of the interrogation room for about 30 minutes with police officers lyin’, saying they had video of me shooting,” he told CBS DFW, “which is a lie.”

Authorities say they believe the attack in Dallas that killed five police officers and injured six more was carried out by at least four snipers who positioned themselves in “triangulated locations” on rooftops near the end of a Black Lives Matter parade route Thursday.

An unedited, extremely graphic bystander video provided to KDFW and played on air appeared to show a deadly shootout between a suspect in Thursday’s shooting in Dallas and a police officer.

According to Dallas Police, at least five officers are dead and six more have been injured after a shooting at a Black Lives Matter protest in Dallas Thursday night. Authorities say two suspects are in custody.

While demonstrators marched across the country to protest the latest slayings of black men by police, President Obama spoke from a NATO summit in Warsaw on Thursday to address the reality of bias in the criminal justice system, the urgency for reform and the common interest all Americans have in demanding change.

At a press conference Thursday afternoon, Minnesota Governor Mark Dayton came to the same conclusion many have after watching the brutal aftermath of last night’s deadly police shooting in his state: If Philando Castile’s skin had been a different color, he’d still be alive.

This week, white America learned the names of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile, for the same reason it learned the names of so many black men it would otherwise be content with avoiding, ignoring, or beating down upon: because Sterling and Castile met some police officers, and the police officers treated them without mercy.

Ted Cruz announced Thursday that he will speak at the Republican National Convention later this month, despite the fact that Donald Trump has called him a liar, insinuated that his father murdered JFK and straight-out called his wife unattractive.

ProPublica and the NYT Magazine have the story of a woman who was jailed and lost her home over a bad drug conviction, and the cheap field tests and pressure to plead guilty that leave others in similar situations. A speck in the woman’s car that tested positive for cocaine was actually something like a crumb of food.
