Music festivals like Coachella have been around for decades, but it wasn't until the 2010s that festival fashion as we know it today really took off. Amy Harris/Invision/APIn a 2021 deep dive on the history of festival fashion, Refinery29 fashion editor Georgia Murray catalogued how styles had changed from Woodstock and Glastonbury in the 1960s and '70s to Coachella and Afropunk in the present day.

CNN —The House select committee investigating the Capitol riot is dropping several of its pursuits for January 6-related phone records, according to court filings this week, as the panel winds down before it expires at the end of this year. While these witnesses and some others successfully blocked the committee from obtaining their phone records, the panel was able to access unprecedented amounts of information in their investigation, including through other phone records subpoenas, other document requests and witness interviews.

Another subpoena target, Stop the Steal organizer Ali Alexander, said in a statement the committee had informed his lawyer it is withdrawing a subpoena for his phone records.
