Layoffs have hit over 1.1M so far this year — the most since the pandemic.
Yet corporate profits continue to hit record highs, with corporations increasingly spending those earnings on stock buybacks to enrich execs and shareholders.
This is what a rigged economy looks like.

Israel’s killing of two young Palestinian boys in Gaza for supposedly crossing the Israeli military’s ever-shifting yellow line last week is “horrific” and must be investigated, the UN has said. “It’s hard to see how two boys, eight and 10, can be considered a threat.”
UN Calls for Investigation Into Israeli Killing of 2 Boys Aged 8 and 10 in Gaza
The boys’ father said that their bodies were torn to pieces by Israel’s strike.

Kristi Noem says the operation will target “the worst of the worst,” but local officials say they’re skeptical. “There are nowhere near 5,000 violent offenders in our region. … What we’re seeing instead are mothers, teenagers, and workers being detained from their homes and places of work.”
ICE Descends on World’s “Incarceration Capital” to Carry Out Raids
According to planning documents, 250 federal agents will aim to make 5,000 arrests in Louisiana over two months.

Breaking News: A federal vaccine committee voted to end the decades-long recommendation that all newborns be immunized at birth against hepatitis B, a highly infectious virus that leads to chronic liver disease in most infected children.
An End to Hepatitis B Shots for All Newborns
A federal panel voted on Friday to recommend halting the at-birth shots for all infants, in a step toward Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s goal of upending the nation’s vaccine policy.

Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes?
That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.

Israel has announced it will reopen the Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt in the next few days. However, the border will only open in one direction: for Palestinians to exit. Israeli American human rights lawyer Sari Bashi says Israel’s goal is to “continue the ethnic cleansing of Gaza.”

All it would have taken to release the Epstein files was a quick, barely coherent angry post on social media from Trump. Instead, we got every delay tactic they could think of. That says it all.

O'Hara: "There's folks that are masked, they may be kidnapping people. We have had those reports. The community should know that if you see something like that, you should call 911. Let's not forget -- we very recently had tragedy in this state by someone who was purporting to be law enforcement."

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

One man said he worried about his 6-year-old nephew, who clung to his legs when agents knocked down the door.
