Fox News: Gas stove protection bills suffer major setback as House Republicans express frustration with McCarthy
GOP bills to protect natural gas-powered stoves suffered a setback when a resolution for a floor vote on the Gas Stove Protection and Freedom Act and Save Our Stoves Act failed with 12 Republicans voting alongside Democrats. GOP members, including Reps. Matt Gaetz and Chip Roy, expressed frustration with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy's leadership and took down the rule. The Republican infighting stalls a high-profile effort to curb federal regulations targeting gas stoves.
The Gas Stove Protection and Freedom Act would bar federal dollars from going toward regulatory efforts to ban gas stoves, while the Save Our Gas Stoves Act would block the Department of Energy from implementing tougher conservation standards on stoves. Both bills have been opposed by the White House. A Biden-appointed member of the Consumer Product Safety Commission said the agency would consider a ban on gas stoves, but the White House said the president didn't support such a measure. After the defeat of the procedural motion, the future for the GOP bills remains uncertain.

Crabtree points to California's rolling blackouts as an example of what the entire country will face if this crackdown on energy providers is implemented.

Fox News: 1619 Project Education Network offers 'reparations math' unit to students focused on basis for payments
The 1619 Project Education Network has released a unit for 9th-12th grade students called "Reparations Math," which teaches students about reparations for descendants of enslaved African Americans. The unit uses math skills and historical research to evaluate different reparations models. It also encourages students to create presentations explaining the mathematical models for a reparations proposal and to present their views on whether or not reparations should be paid to descendants of formerly enslaved Africans and African-Americans.
Rep. Cori Bush proposed a $14 trillion reparations bill in May, while San Francisco's reparations committee proposed paying each Black longtime resident $5 million and granting total debt forgiveness. The 1619 Project Education Network's "Reparations Math" unit looks to contribute to the national conversation about reparations in the U.S., focusing on whether or not descendants of formerly enslaved Africans and African-Americans should receive compensation and exploring different reparations models.

Fox News: Nestle pilots cash incentives program for coffee farmers in sustainability drive
Nestle pilots scheme to reward sustainable coffee farmers in developing countries with cash incentives, as part of its goal to halve its coffee business's greenhouse gas emissions by 2030.

According to a major 2021 coffee report, voluntary efforts by leading coffee firms to achieve sustainable sourcing have largely failed to impact most farmers' livelihoods, resulting in the European Union introducing a landmark law to prevent companies importing commodities and linked products associated with deforestation, while beyond certifiers, bigger policies are debated on how to foster equitable value distribution.

Fox News: Brazil's central bank takes backseat in government's consumer debt renegotiation program
Brazil's central bank has abstained from involvement in the government's consumer debt renegotiation program, according to two of its directors. They spoke in a news conference where Diogo Guillen, the economic policy director, also talked about possible changes to savings remuneration as a result of outflows from savings accounts. The Brazilian government has pledged to renegotiate debt for those earning up to two minimum wages and the program is due to start in July.

Fink's comments have caused concern, with Tesla Founder and CEO Elon Musk calling it "concerning" on Twitter.

The PGA Tour, DP World Tour and LIV Golf have merged in a bid to "unify the game of golf, on a global basis". The move follows two years of disruption and distraction between the PGA and the Saudi-backed invitational and creates a transformational partnership. Although the move has not been met positively by everyone, ESPN analyst Stephen A. Smith praised PGA commissioner Jay Monahan for his smart business move.
