The bust, costing $97,000, was financed by donations from Newsom's companies and other private entities. Newsom claimed ignorance about the bust's details and the fundraising efforts, despite being closely tied to the involved organizations. His office did not comment on the matter.

Fox News: First state to ban fluoride in drinking water will heed MAHA movement's call to action
Utah is poised to become the first state to ban fluoride in public drinking water, pending Governor Spencer Cox's approval of bill HB81. The bill's sponsor, Representative Stephanie Gricius, argues that community fluoridation conflicts with individual choice in healthcare.
Gricius cites data showing no significant difference in dental decay rates between counties that fluoridate and those that do not. Critics, including the American Dental Association, emphasize the public health benefits of fluoridation, while advocates for the ban argue for health autonomy and reduced chemical exposure.

Le Monde: After the collision between an oil tanker and a cargo ship in the North Sea, 'the contradictory information about the cargoes is surprising'
A collision between an oil tanker and a cargo ship off the North Sea coast of Yorkshire has raised concerns about potential environmental impact. While Britain's maritime minister reported no signs of pollution, Prime Minister Keir Starmer expressed worry over the situation.
The tanker was carrying "Jet A1," a refined aircraft fuel that is toxic and evaporates quickly. Experts warn that even if it doesn't reach the coast, it could still affect marine life and lead to fishing prohibitions depending on the spill's severity.
