A federal official calling out Princess Cruise Lines employees for dumping waste into the ocean. Because it's not better to throw it out down where it's wetter.

mistrial  in the case of the former South Carolina officer who shot and killed Walter Scott.
REMIND ME.
Back in 2015, officer Michael Slager shot and killed Scott, an unarmed black man, after a traffic stop. Slager says he shot Scott because he was in

";total fear";  for his life after he says Scott grabbed his Taser. But a witness video shows Slager shooting Scott in the back multiple times as Scott runs away. The video gotthe nation's attention at a time when people were already questioning whether excessive force was used in

a series of police shootings  of black men. Slager was fired and charged with murder.
WHAT NOW?
Yesterday, the trial officially ended with a hung jury -meaning they couldn't decide whether Slager was guilty or not. Prosecutors say they're eyeing a retrial. Either way, Slager's days in court aren't over yet.He faces another trial for the same case, since

met with former VP Al Gore . Ivanka's the one who apparently invited Gore to themeeting, and President-elect DonaldTrumpwasn't supposed to be there&#8230;until he was. The topic was - yup - climate change. In the past, Trumphas said climate change is a ";hoax"; invented by the Chinese, but

softened his stance  a bit post-election. It's unclear what they talked about, but many are wondering why Ivanka was there in the first place. Her dad has said he plans on passing the reins of his company to Ivanka and her brothers in order to avoid conflicts of interest while in office. But Ivanka keeps showing up on political meeting invites. There was that time she

president of Argentina . And now this. All of which is making a lot of people wonder how serious Trump is about keeping his business and his administration separate. Meanwhile, yesterday Trump nominated former GOP rival Ben Carson to head up the Dept. of Housing and Urban Development. This comes a few weeks after Carson - a retired neurosurgeon - reportedly turned down a Health and Human Services job because

print six new notes and coins . That's because inflation has gotten so bad there that the highest bill is only worth a few literal pennies. Psst&#8230;Venezuela has the world's largest oil reserves, and the country relies on high oil profits to keep its economy afloat. Problem, since the price of oil has been dropping like a stone for years now. Fast forward to now, and Venezuela's in the middle of a major economic crisis that's put kind-of important basics like food and medicine in short supply. And the currency is worth so little that Venezuelans have to carry around backpacks full of cash in order to buy something...anything. The new highest bill is apparently worth about $5. The move isn't expected to help solve the financial crisis, but it might make it a little easier to do business. Baby steps.

plans to take a trip to Pearl Harbor  later this month with President Obama. This means he'll be the first Japanese leader to visit since Japan attacked the US Navy base in 1941. This year is the 75th anniversary of the attack, which killed thousands of Americans and led the US to joinWWII. Abe's trip comes after Obama visited the Japanese city of Hiroshima earlier this year. He was the first US president to go to the city, where the US dropped one of two atomic bombs in 1945 at the end of WWII. Full circle. Consider this Pearl Harbor trip a diplomatic pat on the back.
