No tuna DNA in Subway's tuna, lawsuit alleges

Pescatarians may want to avoid eating Subway's tuna, if one is to believe the allegations in a revived lawsuit questioning the ingredients in the restaurant chain's seafood.
Nineteen of 20 tuna samples from Subway outlets throughout Southern California contained animal protein including chicken, pork or cattle, but no discernible tuna DNA, according to the latest complaint filed on Monday in U.S. District Court in California.
Subway dismissed the claims in the amended suit, the third filed this year, as "meritless" and defended its fish as "high-quality, wild-caught, 100% tuna." The company's lawyers are in the process of reviewing the claim and plan to file a new motion to dismiss what they called a "reckless and improper lawsuit."
Monterey, California — The battle over President-elect Trump's pick for Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, may become a test of loyalty for Republican stalwarts — some of whom stood at the center of a bid 10 years ago to remove Hegseth as the head of a veterans' charity over allegations of financial mismanagement, repeated intoxication and sexual misconduct.
Washington — Republicans have celebrated holding onto their narrow majority in the House, adding to their flip of the Senate and the White House for a trifecta in Washington next year. But President-elect Donald Trump's selection of a number of House Republicans to fill top posts in his administration is pulling from an already shallow bench, temporarily whittling the GOP majority down further as Trump takes office in January.
