Note: According to Neil Postman, our society has become saturated with information, leading to a state of meaningless abundance where we are unable to discern what is truly significant or irrelevant, resulting in a lack of understanding about what matters most. This glut of information can ultimately lead to a disorientation and disconnection from the world around us, causing us to lose touch with meaningful experiences and relationships.

Axios.
White House national security adviser Mike Waltz said on Wednesday that the U.S. will continue to suspend weapon supplies and intelligence sharing with Ukraine until a date for peace talks with Russia is set. The U.S. decision to pause military aid is putting pressure on the Ukrainian President to agree to negotiations with Russia to end the war. A source with knowledge of the details said that the suspension of intelligence sharing mostly focuses on information that could help Ukraine conduct attacks inside Russian territory. Zelensky put out a statement on Tuesday expressing regret for his public spat with President Trump and committing to peace talks because of the intelligence-sharing pause, according to a second source close to the Ukrainian government. The source said that the suspension of intelligence sharing has a negative effect on the Ukrainian army's operations. In an interview with Fox Business, CIA director John Ratcliffe confirmed that Trump ordered a pause in intelligence sharing with Ukraine. President Zelensky was asked if he was committed to a peace process. Let's stop, he said....

Bank of America, JP Morgan Chase and Wells Fargo were accused of Zelle fraud.
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is dropping its lawsuit against the company that runs the Zelle payment platform and three U.S. banks as federal agencies continue to pull back on previous enforcement actions now that President Donald Trump is back in office. Trudeau isn't willing to lift Canada's retaliatory tariffs if Trump leaves some tariffs on Canada. More states want to stop taxing them because the banks failed to protect hundreds of thousands of consumers from rampant fraud on Zelle. The banks rushed to get the peer-to-peer payments platform to market without effective safeguards against fraud and then, after consumers complained about being defrauded on the service, largely denied them relief according to the federal civil complaint. The company that operates Zelle, Early Warning Services, was named in the lawsuit. Bank of America is one of the seven U.S. banks that own EWS. Three banks are the largest financial institutions on the Zelle network. According to a filing in the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona, the lawsuit against Wells Fargo was dismissed with prejudice....

The rise of the brutal American.
I went to a book festival in Vilnius, meetings with friends in Warsaw, and a dinner in Berlin, and everyone wanted to talk about the Oval Office performance. Europeans needed some time to process this event, not just because of what it told them about the war in Ukraine, but also because of what it told them about America. Donald Trump's behavior created a new stereotype for America, which was not the quiet American, not the ugly American, but the brutal American. The good guys win, the bad guys lose, and honor defeats treachery are all shattered in old American movies. The speeches that John F. Kennedy and Ronald Reagan made at the Berlin Wall and the crowds that welcomed Barack Obama are fading fast. They are rude apart from their politics. They are cruel. They berated and mistreated a guest on camera, and then boasted about it, as if their ugly behavior achieved some kind of macho win....

While some outlets offer crucial counter-narratives and insights, others pose a significant risk of misinformation, perpetuating controlled opposition or serving as wolves in sheep's clothing, intent on misleading their audience with agendas designed to confuse rather than inform.

Osteoarthritis is a condition that affects older adults. It develops when the cushion between the bones is damaged. This causes bones to rub together, leading to pain, stiffness and changes in the underlying bone structure, such as osteophytes, which further limit joint function. Certain individuals are more susceptible to osteoarthritis due to their genetic predisposition. Increased stress on joints is caused by factors such as Obesity. Cartilage degradation is worsened by inflammatory processes within the joint. You can learn more: http://bit.ly/41Cozcq

Paloma Shemirani, the daughter of Kate Shemirani, died under suspicious circumstances due to excessive medical intervention. The authorities, including the coroner and law enforcement, have suppressed evidence despite evidence suggesting medical malpractice. The case points to a larger issue of systemic cover-ups in the medical and judicial systems, where similar preventable deaths are occurring, and calls for justice and accountability for those responsible. This is believed to be a cover-up of a murder. Since 2020, Kate Shemirani has advocated for medical freedom, informed consent, and bodily autonomy, warning the world about the dangers of a medical intervention designed to harm and kill. In the wake of her daughter's death, she continues to fight for justice and has used her voice to do so. Please support Kate in her pursuit of justice for Paloma by sharing this press release.
