A Delta flight attendant slashed a co-worker and hotel security guard after a late night and early morning of heavy, “blacked out” drinking, officials said Wednesday. Smith and “several other coworkers were returning to their” riverfront hotel when he started bickering with the victim, New Orleans police said in a statement. While Smith was booked for attempted murder, defense lawyer Thomas Calogero said his client shouldn’t be charged with that alleged crime once the case reaches prosecutors. Calogero said he highly doubts his client will ever be able to work as a flight attendant again. I mean I’m sure he’s going to lose his job at Delta,” the lawyer said.

The storm, already dropping snow over the Rockies Wednesday morning, is forecast to race east throughout today to the Midwest and Northeast through Thanksgiving. For road travelers, I-80, I-64, I-75 will be impacted by rain Wednesday, and I-25 and I-70 with snow in the Rockies. Thanksgiving Day will bring a mess of rain for the I-95 corridor from Florida to Maine, and accumulating snow for the interior Northeast and northern New England. The iconic Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade will go on rain or shine, as the Big Apple is forecast to see soaking rain with temperatures in the 40s.

☆ The TSA-approved hack that allows travelers to bring a bottle of water through airport security

“Frozen liquid items are allowed through the checkpoint as long as they are frozen solid when presented for screening,” a TSA spokesperson confirmed to CNN by email. What to do if your frozen bottle starts to melt? Ultimately, the best advice is to not pack any foods or frozen liquid items into your carry-on luggage that you would be upset to throw away. Some travelers question why someone would bother to freeze a bottle of water before their flight given most airports now have free refilling stations. “While I’ve never personally brought a frozen water bottle through security, there are times when this travel hack makes sense,” he told CNN.

The planned law would force social media platforms to take reasonable steps to ensure age-verification protections are in place. The ban was first announced during an emotionally charged parliamentary inquiry into social media, which included testimony from parents of children who had self-harmed due to cyberbullying. “I understand that using social media a lot is not a good thing and I’m working on it,” said Sydney high school student Enie Lam, 16.

He was awarded $13 million — though state regulations cap rewards at $1 million for wrongful convictions. The jury also found a state police chemist falsely testified at the trial though his testimony isn’t what guaranteed Sullivan’s conviction. Another suspect in the murder, Gary Grace, implicated Sullivan and had his murder charges dropped. He was sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole but he died in prison. “I couldn’t believe I was convicted of murder,” Sullivan said, recalling prosecutors mentioned the purple jacket five times in their closing argument.

Several current federal employees told CNN they’re afraid their lives will be forever changed – including physically threatened – as Musk makes behind-the-scenes bureaucrats into personal targets. “These tactics are aimed at sowing terror and fear at federal employees,” said Everett Kelley, president of the American Federation of Government Employees, which represents more than 800,000 of the 2.3 million civilian federal employees. CNN reached out to all four federal employees who either declined comment or were unable to be reached. Cummings said she already knows of federal employees who “have dedicated their lives to civil service,” already quitting their jobs in anticipation of what’s to come.

But if she had to pick between sweet potato and pumpkin — the two autumnal pies that have come to define the Thanksgiving season — the choice is a simple one: Sweet potato. But in many homes, particularly African American ones, sweet potato pie remains supreme. This abundance of sweet potatoes, both in pastry and other forms, led to sweet potato pie entering the soul food canon. Illustration by Leah Abucayan/CNNThe importance of sweet potato pie to African Americans has continued through generations. A few decades later, Georgia Gilmore sold sweet potato pies, and other food, to help fund the Montgomery Bus Boycott.
