17 (known) investigations

It’s hard to keep track of them all, but Wired has put together a guide: There are 17 known investigations related to President Trump. That includes seven by the special counsel Robert Mueller, four by the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, one by the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, two by the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, and three by New York City, New York State or other state attorneys general.

2 sizes

(Sponsored by Mott & Bow) Finding the perfect outfit can be tricky, especially when you’re shopping for someone else. Maybe you’ve found a style that you know they’ll love, but you’re not sure which size to get. Or you found the perfect fit, but the material just isn’t comfortable. Fortunately, one premium brand’s free home try-on program can alleviate the stress brought about by all the guesswork. Their program allows shoppers (or gift recipients) to try on 2 sizes of purchased apparel in the convenience of their own home. They’re also offering free 2-day shipping through Dec. 19 on all orders over 150 dollars, which means there is still time to shop before the holidays.

187 million interactions

According to a Senate Intelligence Committee report, Instagram “was a significant front” in Russian election meddling, eclipsing even Facebook itself.

71 percent of bill collectors

Google Image searches for professions return results that can misrepresent, in some cases grossly, the actual gender breakdown of people who work those jobs in the real world. For example, 71 percent of real-world bill collectors are women, whereas only 20 percent of the images in a search for “bill collectors” are of women. A similar gap holds for bartenders, probation officers and chief executives. Women are overrepresented in searches for singers and models. [Pew Research Center]

The U.S. military carried out six airstrikes in Somalia earlier this month, which killed 62 people, it said.
