  1. Forget eggs—the cost of coffee is skyrocketing, and folks are noticing.

    I heard it was coming, so I stocked up weeks ago, but my supply won’t last forever. Trump’s Brazil tariffs are to blame.

  2. “We take vaccines so for granted in the United States” ...“Women in the developing world know the power of [vaccines]. They will walk 10 kilometers in the heat with their child and line up to get a vaccine because they have seen death.”

  3. Larry Summers: “This isn’t just political gamesmanship—this is authoritarianism creeping in. Nixon never went this far. Firing statisticians? That’s straight out of the playbook that also targets journalists, universities, and law firms. This is dangerous, and we should all be alarmed.”

  6. Donald Trump could end the famine in Gaza today if he wasn’t too chickenshit to pressure Bibi into letting the damn food trucks in.

    There is no need for air drops.

    But he Jarod and Bibi have plans for Gaza Condos.

    More than 100,000 people joined the March For Humanity protest in Sydney, Australia.

    They demanded an end to the genocide in Palestine; for food and aid to be provided to Gaza, and for the Australian government to stop sending Israel weapons used to slaughter innocent people. #FreePalestine #3E
