2018 has been a tumultuous year in Washington — we've seen unprecedented turnover in the White House, the passings of two political statesmen, and indictments of several Trump associates as part of special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation (which still continues full speed ahead).The holidays, however, are a time to be hopeful. As the second year of the Trump administration comes to a close, here are five moments from this year's political news that everyone can find something to smile about, no matter your political leaning.1. Michelle Obama and George W. Bush's friendshipSince President Barack Obama took office, protocol has placed these two next to each other during official events. Former first lady Michelle Obama and former President George W. Bush have been spotted hugging, joining hands and just seeming to enjoy one another's company over the years, but their friendship went on full display earlier this year at the late Sen. John McCain's funeral. The two shared a sweet moment (and social media virality) when Bush handed Obama a cough drop in their row of former presidents and first ladies. At his own father's funeral later in the year, Bush repeated the gesture, handing Obama another small item from his pocket when he greeted her.In an interview in November, Obama said that her friendship with 43 "reminds us that we can get there with the right leadership and with the right tone setting and with each of us giving one another the benefit of the doubt.""I'd love if we as a country could get back to the place where we didn't demonize people who disagreed with us," she added.2. Tammy Duckworth's baby on the Senate floorIn April, Illinois Sen. Tammy Duckworth gave birth to a baby girl, making her 1746

The drug ketamine is used as an anesthetic, a pain reliever or even a club drug. But now, a ketamine-like drug could soon be approved by the FDA to help people fighting severe depression. Sally Owens is one patient undergoing ketamine treatment. “You feel secure in and grounded, even though you're in a dream state,” Owens says of the treatment. “And in an hour, you come out of it and you're feeling better.” The retired nurse started getting IV ketamine treatments after fighting depression with antidepressants for most of her adult life, with no success. But after two sessions at Vitalitas, a Denver ketamine infusion center, she saw results. “I was doing more things around the house and getting out and and doing more things with friends,” she says. Owens says she’s excited to hear the FDA is considering a more accessible, less potent nasal spray similar to ketamine. “You could essentially think of esketamine as half of ketamine,” describes Dr. Roman Langston, who treats patients with ketamine. Esketamine would be for people with severe depression who haven't benefited from at least two different therapies, the doctor says. 300 million people around the world are affected by severe depression. Drug makers hope the spray can help 30 to 40 percent of patients, who don't respond to antidepressants. Antidepressants can take weeks to take effect, while they say nasal spray benefits start after four hours. Dr. Langston says FDA approval could make more people comfortable using the drug, commonly known as a party drug. Right now, it's not covered by insurance. Sessions can range from 0 to 0 for a session. “If they qualify for coverage through their insurance company, maybe it's a copay, and they can give it a try and it could make a huge difference in their life,” he says.Dr. Langston says it remains to be seen what the long-term consequences of esketamine are. 1907

A lot of things have changed at Disneyland since 1985.For starters, Captain Jack Sparrow is now the star of the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, and you can buy and drink alcohol inside Oga's Cantina.But one thing hasn't changed: Canadian woman Tamia Richardson's love for Disney.In August 2019, the park honored visitor Richardson's free entry pass from 1985. Although decades have passed since Richardson received the pass, she was allowed in without so much as a surcharge.Richardson, who lives in the Edmonton suburb of Sherwood Park, Alberta, was planning a girls' trip to Disneyland with her mother, aunt, and daughters Mia and Maren when she found the coupon.The mom of two first visited Disneyland in 1985 when she was 14 years old. That was also the year that Disneyland, located in Anaheim, California, celebrated its 30th birthday.In 1985, admission tickets cost .50. These days, the most basic single day admission ticket costs ."As part of the 30th Anniversary, Disneyland featured the Gift Giver Extraordinaire, which gave out prizes to every 30th guest," a Disney spokesperson explains to CNN Travel. "Tamia won a pass to use for a return visit. She kept the pass for 30 years and used it today for admission.""Disney's big in our family," says Kent Richardson, Tamia's husband, who has been keeping the home fires warm back in Canada. "They're having the time of their lives."Still, not every old pass or ticket that you find buried in the attic will necessarily be honored at the House of Mouse.Passes that are confirmed not to be copies and that do not have expiration dates will be accepted for entrance into Disney parks, while "A B C D E" tickets (used for admission to individual rides or attractions) are not good for general admittance.In the past, some Disney staffers have reportedly used a "Book of Life" if they needed to verify a particular pass. 1891

A college student whose body was found in a field hours after she got into a vehicle she mistakenly thought was her Uber ride died from multiple sharp force injuries, the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division said Monday.Samantha Josephson, 21, a student at the University of South Carolina, called an Uber around 2 a.m. Friday in Columbia, and was last seen getting into a black Chevy Impala, said Columbia Police Chief W.H. "Skip" Holbrook. Turkey hunters found her body 14 hours later in the field in Clarendon County, about 90 miles away.The Law Enforcement Division cited an autopsy report from the Clarendon County coroner. Authorities declined to release additional information.Josephson's body had numerous wounds, including on her head, neck, face, upper body, leg and foot, according to arrest warrants for suspect Nathaniel David Rowland.Surveillance video of Josephson outside a bar shows her standing by herself on a curb on the morning she disappeared. She takes several steps toward a black vehicle that pulls up to a parking spot. She appears to reach for the door handle of the vehicle as it slows down and gets inside, the video shows.Josephson and her roommates had gotten separated the night they went out, Holbrook said. Her roommates grew worried the next morning. They looked for her and called Columbia police around 1:30 p.m. Friday to report her missing, Holbrook said.Police arrived at the home where Josephson and her roommates lived that day.Josesphson's friends also went around Columbia with her photo on Friday asking if anyone had seen her.Iley Wildes, who co-owns Natural Vibrations, a store located next to a bar where Josephson was last seen, recalled Josephson's boyfriend and roommates came in to her store with a photo of Josephson. They also wanted to see the store's surveillance video, Wildes told CNN."They seemed very concerned and distraught," she said.Early Saturday, police arrested Rowland, 24, in Columbia after an officer saw him driving an Impala that matched the description of the vehicle seen in surveillance video. Police found Josephson's blood in the car's passenger side and trunk, authorities said. Her cell phone was found in the passenger compartment, police said.Investigators also found a container of liquid bleach, germicidal wipes and window cleaner in the car, Holbrook said.Rowland faces charges of murder and kidnapping in connection with Josephson's death.He waived his right to a scheduled court appearance on Sunday. Fielding Pringle, his public defender, declined to comment. Rowland was listed as being held in jail in Columbia. Arrest warrants listed his home as New Zion, an unincorporated community in Clarendon County.Flowers for SamanthaJosephson had worked at the Liberty Tap Room, a nearby brewery and grill, for several months, according to a manager.Throughout the day, students in University of South Carolina clothing placed flowers in front of a memorial at a fountain in Columbia's Five Points bar district where Josephson was last seen.Ridessharing guidelines from Columbia police were plastered on businesses in the Five Points area, including the bar where Josephson was before she climbed into the Impala. The guidelines pointed out where the drop off and pick up zone were in the area and offered safety tips and guidelines.An Uber spokesperson in a statement said: "Since 2017, we've been working with local law enforcement and college campuses across the country to educate the public about how to avoid fake rideshare drivers. Everyone at Uber is devastated to hear about this unspeakable crime, and our hearts are with Samantha Josephson's family and loved ones. We remain focused on raising public awareness about this incredibly important issue."Josephson, from Robbinsville, New Jersey, located east of Trenton, planned to study law in the fall at Drexel University in Philadelphia, according to her father, Seymour Josephson. He attended at a candle light vigil Sunday on the South Carolina campus.Josephson's funeral will be held at noon Wednesday at Congregation Beth Chaim in Princeton Junction, New Jersey, according to a post on her father's Facebook page. She will be buried in Perrineville, New Jersey.A GoFundMe page to cover funeral and memorial costs had raised more than ,000 by Monday evening. 4322

A federal judge will sentence Paul Manafort on Thursday for defrauding banks and the government and failing to pay taxes on millions of dollars in income he earned from Ukrainian political consulting -- charges that stemmed from special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.The penalty may be steep enough to keep the longtime lobbyist and former Trump campaign chairman in prison for the rest of his life.Prosecutors say that Manafort, 69, deserves between 19 and 25 years in prison as well as millions of dollars in fines and restitution for the crimes, for which a jury convicted him after a three-week trial last summer. Manafort has shown little remorse, they say, and even lied under oath following a plea deal after the trial."The defendant blames everyone from the special counsel's office to his Ukrainian clients for his own criminal choices," prosecutors wrote in a final court filing this week to Judge T.S. Ellis in Alexandria, Virginia.In many ways, the Manafort case -- which reached back almost a decade to track the movement of money from his Ukrainian political consulting work, through the time he was broke and working for Trump in 2016 -- has shaped Mueller's actions for almost two years.Manafort's was the first indictment Mueller announced in late 2017 and it used the criminal prosecution to ratchet up pressure on him throughout 2018 as they sought his cooperation on matters central to their probe. At one point, after securing Manafort's longtime deputy Rick Gates as a witness against him, prosecutors split his case in two, putting the more clear-cut financial crimes indictment in the fast-moving Northern Virginia federal court. Manafort's conviction at trial was a major win for Mueller -- the only official certification from an impartial group of citizens that Mueller had uncovered major crime.The eight crimes for which Manafort will be sentenced on Thursday include five convictions of tax fraud from 2010 through 2014, hiding his foreign bank accounts from federal authorities in 2012 and defrauding two banks for more than million in loans intended for real estate. At his trial, one juror refused to join the other 11 to convict him on 10 additional foreign banking and bank fraud charges. Prosecutors later dropped those counts.Manafort did not testify in his own defense at his trial, which 2411
