Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier is taking a strong stance against "woke" ideologies, particularly targeting companies like Target for their Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies. He has filed a class action lawsuit against Target, alleging that the company misled investors about the risks associated with its LGBTQ activism, which resulted in significant financial losses.
Uthmeier announced measures to hold companies accountable for their fiduciary duties, including a new corporate accountability fund. He also stated that Florida will not engage with law firms promoting DEI and ESG policies, which he claims violate civil rights laws in the state.

GB News: Travis Kelce 'crisis' with Taylor Swift emerges after Coachella no-show amid relationship 'tension'
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's absence from Coachella has led to speculation about their relationship status, with fans expressing concern online. However, sources close to the couple assert that they are focusing on individual commitments and remain strong together.

Fox News: My book on the 'New White Nationalism' was caught in the DEI dragnet. But it's not what you think
The U.S. Naval Academy's recent removal of Dr. Carol Swain's book, "The New White Nationalism in America," reflects a broader trend of rejecting complex discussions on race and identity politics. The decision, made under a DEI initiative, overlooks the book's intent to address racial unrest and advocate for a cohesive American identity.
This action raises concerns about the academy's commitment to fostering critical thinking and debate among its students. By dismissing works that confront difficult realities, the Naval Academy risks stifling the intellectual growth necessary for future leaders.

He asserted that both Zelensky and President Biden share responsibility alongside Putin for the conflict, emphasizing that starting a war requires the knowledge of potential victory.
Trump's comments followed a deadly Russian airstrike on the city of Sumy, which he initially condemned. Despite the historical context of Russia's aggression dating back to 2014, Trump reiterated his stance that all parties involved bear blame. He also mentioned the possibility of improving US-Russia relations and urged Zelensky to engage in negotiations.

The UK government has responded to over 20 Iran-backed plots since 2022, with security agencies thwarting numerous attacks against Western officials and Jewish targets. New measures will require individuals working for Iran in the UK to register, with penalties for non-compliance.
The Telegraph: A Royal Navy warship in the Taiwan Strait is like a policeman going down a dark alley
The Royal Navy's Carrier Strike Group is preparing for a deployment to the Pacific, with uncertain routes that may include the South China Sea or Taiwan Strait. China claims these areas as its territorial waters, contrary to international law, which recognizes them as international waters.
The principle of freedom of navigation allows ships to traverse these waters without interference, a right the US Navy actively asserts through Freedom of Navigation Operations. The Royal Navy also engages in similar operations, though less frequently and without the specific terminology.

Fox News: Time to pull the plug on corporate virtue-signaling
Corporate leaders are shifting their rhetoric on climate change, driven by pressure from the Trump administration and the need to address energy poverty. The World Bank's focus has expanded to include climate change, yet its funding allocations prioritize climate projects over essential energy development for poorer nations.
Despite the recognition of climate change as a pressing issue, many companies are reverting to fossil fuel commitments, abandoning previous green promises. A significant number of firms plan to reduce public communication on climate policies while increasing spending in that area, indicating a potential disconnect between rhetoric and action.
The Epoch Times: CCP Deploys Playbook to Prolong Trade War, Experts Say
As the U.S.-China trade war escalates, Beijing is determined to maintain its trade practices despite high tariffs, which currently stand at 145% on U.S. imports. Analysts suggest that China is willing to endure greater economic strain than the U.S. and is employing various tactics, including propaganda and pressure on American companies, to counteract U.S. actions.
In response to U.S. tariffs, China has introduced export restrictions on critical rare earth elements and is leveraging its dominance in this sector as a strategic weapon. The Chinese Communist Party is also seeking to strengthen ties with other nations to isolate the U.S. economically, while the Biden administration continues to monitor currency manipulation and unfair trade practices.
Le Monde: Tariffs: US and China pass the buck
The trade standoff between the U.S. and China intensifies as the White House claims the initiative lies with China to negotiate a resolution. China responds defiantly, asserting its readiness for a trade war and calling for dialogue based on equality.
Recent economic data shows China’s growth at 5.4%, with retaliatory measures against U.S. tariffs impacting American exports, particularly in agriculture. The U.S. has imposed significant tariffs on Chinese goods, while China has countered with its own tariffs, escalating tensions between the two nations.

Fox News: Diabetes risk linked to these ultraprocessed food combinations
A study published in PLOS Medicine indicates that certain combinations of food additives in ultraprocessed foods may increase the risk of type 2 diabetes. Researchers analyzed data from over 100,000 adults, identifying specific mixtures of emulsifiers and sweeteners commonly found in artificially sweetened drinks that correlated with higher diabetes incidence.
While the study suggests a link between these additive mixtures and diabetes risk, experts emphasize that more research is needed to establish causation. Dietitians recommend focusing on a balanced diet rich in whole foods rather than stressing over individual ingredients.
