The WNBA has been on fire lately.

The league’s been building on hype over the past few years, and now the ladies are finally receiving the attention they need.

Now, we know rookies like Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese, and Cameron Brink are getting all the hype right now, but let’s not forget about some of the other modern players who ushered in a new era in the W.

One of them is Las Vegas Ace Kelsey Plum. 29-year-old Plum was the first pick in the 2017 WNBA draft, and since joining the Sin City team, they’ve built up quite the roster. With so much talent—she’s paired with A’Ja Wilson and is coached by Becky Hammon—the Aces won the WNBA championship in 2022 and 2023.

With the 2024 season kicking off this week, the Aces look to follow in the footsteps of the Houston Comets from the 1990s, who are the only WNBA team to ever three-peat—with Sheryl Swoopes at the helm, no doubt.

But before the Aces could really get into the nitty-gritty of the 2024 campaign, the opening night also serves as ring night. So, on this special occasion, Plum put on a fire fit, which was immediately noticed as she strolled through the tunnel.

Plum wore loose-fitting leather pants and a cropped vest on top, which showed some skin, including her abs.

The two-time champion’s look quickly went viral, so we’re listing some of her most fire Instagram moments below.

This week in politics, the vibes are messy, alarming, and straight-up confusing. From late night TV being snatched off the air to vaccine policies getting hijacked, it’s giving “WTF is going on?” Let’s break down the headlines everyone’s talking about inside. First Amendment on the Chopping Block Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show has been pulled from ABC, and Stephen Colbert’s show? Cancelled completely. The official line is murky, but the bigger picture is loud. Free speech is being tested under the Trump administration. While Trump once said he’d “honor” the First Amendment, recent moves suggest he’s working off a remix version that only benefits him. Case in point? The Guardian reports his $15 billion lawsuit against The New York Times. A judge already tossed it out, saying Trump’s claims about “false content” violated federal rules. Still, the fact that these lawsuits and cancellations keep happening has people questioning the future of free expression in America. CDC Shake-Up Sparks Health Concerns Meanwhile, over at the CDC, things are getting political fast. Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has basically turned the agency upside down, firing all 17 members of the vaccine advisory committee and replacing them with appointees that include vaccine skeptics. On top of that, the CDC director is out, high-level staffers are resigning, and decisions about vaccine safety are suddenly more about politics than science. Public health leaders are calling this move dangerous, saying it dismantles independent oversight just when Americans need clarity most. According to California’s government website, they are one of the few states pushing back on the federal government’s stance. California, Washington, and Hawaii aren’t taking it lying down. The states have formed an alliance pushing back on the feds, promising to keep vaccine guidance rooted in science, safety, and transparency. Their health officers are reviewing guidelines from trusted medical groups like the AAP and ACOG to ensure communities still have access to clinically recommended vaccines. Trump & Xi Meet About US TikTok’s Next Chapter And then there’s TikTok. After years of “will they, won’t they?” drama, Trump announced that he and Chinese Premier Xi Jinping approved a deal for TikTok’s U.S. operations. According to BBC, the plan reportedly hands control to a group of U.S. investors, sidestepping a shutdown. Trump called the call with Xi “productive” on Truth Social, and even, teased a face-to-face meetup at the APEC summit in South Korea this fall. From free speech battles to vaccine wars and TikTok drama, this week in politics has us all asking the same thing: WTFGO?
