Liberty Nation: Joe Biden and the Cost of War
: President Biden's alignment with Israel and support for Ukraine's war could cost him support on the left and from battle-weary Americans. Comparisons to Trump's presidency, peace during his term, and Biden's abrupt withdrawal from Afghanistan have weakened his standing. Wartime leadership can sustain popularity, but with low favorability, a war is unlikely to salvage Biden's presidency.
The Federalist: Report: Reparations Could Cost Your Household Hundreds Of Thousands Of Dollars
The United Nations called for reparations for descendants of transatlantic slavery, which could cost around $12.9 trillion in the U.S. Taxpayers, including those whose ancestors had no connection to slavery, would bear most of the financial burden. The issue of who pays and who receives reparations remains uncertain, and the potential recipients range from 75 to 90 percent of black Americans. The question of reparations for slavery has gained political momentum, but the cost and logistics of implementation present significant challenges.

National Review: Yalies 4 Terrorism
Yale University students organize pro-Hamas events and rallies, using anti-colonizer rhetoric and promoting the resistance against perceived oppression. Many professors and students at elite universities advocate for Hamas and justify the terrorist group's actions. The left has weaponized the study of history to support their political agenda, collapsing complex civilizations into rigid moral categories and justifying violence against innocent civilians. The Jewish community at Yale feels rattled and cautious in the wake of these events, with some calling for the removal of a professor who praised Hamas.

The election marks a significant change for Poland and Europe.

Liberty Nation: Iran Proposes Arab Oil Embargo Redux Against Israel
Iran is seeking an oil embargo on Israel through Islamic countries, but the Organization of Islamic Cooperation did not agree. The potential revival of an oil embargo could have significant consequences for global energy markets and the economy.
If Iran succeeds in imposing oil restrictions, the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) may not be able to cope due to its already depleted state. The tight conditions in the US and abroad are causing oil prices to rise, which could lead to inflationary pressures and economic implications.

Flag And Cross: Study: Commonly Prescribed Statin Raises Diabetes Risk
One commonly prescribed statin, rosuvastatin, increases the risk of diabetes compared to atorvastatin, according to a new study published in The BMJ. Both drugs are effective in preventing heart attacks and strokes, but rosuvastatin carries a higher risk of type 2 diabetes. The study analyzed the results of a clinical trial involving 4,400 adults with coronary artery disease and found no discernible differences in death rates or cardiovascular events between the two groups, but rosuvastatin users had a higher rate of developing diabetes requiring medication and needing cataract surgery.
National Review: The American College of Surgeons Doubles Down on Anti-Racism
The American College of Surgeons (ACS) is hosting its annual Clinical Congress, but little-known outside the college is its embrace of critical race theory. ACS leadership declared the organization structurally racist, implemented diversity initiatives, and hosted a retreat on diversity with Ibram X. Kendi as the keynote speaker. Despite the implosion of organizations like Black Lives Matter due to allegations of misuse of funds, the ACS is doubling down on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and anti-racism. The leadership is offering courses on these topics at the Clinical Congress, with no evidence to support their approach. Surgeons should prioritize excellence in surgery, not DEI ideology, as it negatively impacts the quality of care. The ACS leadership has banned members who object, including the author of the article, leading to concerns about the organization's future.
