,1,President Biden's son Hunter, who was convicted of felony gun charges and tax offenses, faced a max prison sentence of up to 25 years. His father, President Joe Biden repeatedly promised he would not pardon his son. But just weeks before Hunter Biden’s scheduled sentencing, the president changed his mind. On December 1, the president pardoned him for those crimes --- and any others he may have committed in the last decade. Now people are curious about how broad presidential pardons can be. Ariane Datil explains what our reporting found.

,1,VERIFY has been getting a lot of questions about the popular energy drink Celsius.
We previously confirmed a form of vitamin B12 used in Celsius is not made from sludge found at human sewage treatment plants. We also found the NCAA and the Olympics haven’t banned the drink because of its ingredients.
Several TikTok users have posted videos appearing to show the energy drink causing a positive drug test. Others posted videos questioning those claims. We put the drink to the test.
THE QUESTION
Does drinking Celsius cause a person to test positive for drugs?

,1,In this short documentary produced in association with The Guardian, Iraqi-born reporter Ghaith Abdul-Ahad went inside the 2016-17 battle against ISIS for control of the key city of Mosul, Iraq. (2017)

In “Battle for Iraq,” Ghaith Abdul-Ahad made a dangerous trip inside Mosul to examine the fight against ISIS and its toll. He spoke with civilians caught in the turmoil, members of Iraq’s elite special operations forces, known as the Golden Division, and captured ISIS fighters. During his reporting, he survived a suicide bombing and ISIS sniper and grenade attacks.
He found a complicated situation on the ground, including deep-seated mistrust of the Iraqi Army by the civilian population, who were suffering heavy casualties: “As we start driving in, you realize you’re not driving through a liberated neighborhood… you’re driving through a battle zone,” Abdul-Ahad said, adding that “this is a battle happening between two enemies on a land inhabited by civilians.”
“Battle for Iraq” was a FRONTLINE production with Mongoose Pictures in association with The Guardian. The reporter and correspondent was The Guardian’s Ghaith Abdul-Ahad. The producer and director was Joshua Baker. The senior producer was Dan Edge. The executive producer of FRONTLINE was Raney Aronson-Rath.

On CNN NewsNight with Abby Phillip, Bakari Sellers joins Hal Lambert, Peter Meijer, and Ana Navarro to debate the mounting consequences of Washington’s inaction.
With air traffic controllers calling out sick, health care costs skyrocketing, and millions at risk of losing Medicaid coverage, the panel digs into the real stakes for working Americans — and whether Trump’s threats to deny furloughed workers back pay are even legal.
Key Topics Discussed:
- Political blame over the government shutdown
- Trump’s threats to block back pay for furloughed workers
- The role of Russell Vought and unelected bureaucrats in budget cuts
- ACA subsidies and the rise in health care premiums
- Medicaid funding and rural hospital closures
- Marjorie Taylor Greene’s surprising criticism of GOP leadership
