Israeli forces opened fire near two aid distribution sites run by the Israeli-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation as crowds of hungry Palestinians again sought food, killing at least 10 people, witnesses and health workers said Saturday — a day after U.S. officials visited a GHF site and the U.S. ambassador called the troubled system “an incredible feat.”

In light of recently rewatching the South Korean action thriller Ballerina (2023) after viewing the 2025 Ballerina film from the John Wick universe, it becomes evident that these two works, despite sharing a common title, diverge sharply in tone, thematic ambition, and stylistic execution.

The Fed has the responsibility of stabilizing prices and maximizing employment. Powell has held its benchmark rate for overnight loans constant this year, saying that Fed officials needed to see what impact Trump’s massive tariffs had on inflation.

International outcry over images of emaciated children and increasing reports of hunger-related deaths have pressured Israel to let more aid into the Gaza Strip. This week, Israel paused fighting in parts of Gaza and airdropped food. But aid groups and Palestinians say the changes have only been incremental and are not enough to reverse what food experts say is a “ worst-case scenario of famine” unfolding in the war-ravaged territory.

Less food is going into Gaza now than during most other times in the war. Hundreds of Palestinians have been killed while heading toward aid sites. Many others are suffering from serious malnutrition, and Gazan health officials say scores have died from it.

When President Trump slammed India this week for purchasing large amounts of Russian oil, threatening a “penalty” tariff on top of a 25 percent levy, it came like a lightning bolt. India has been a leading and conspicuous buyer of Russian energy since the invasion of Ukraine three years ago, as most Western countries curtailed their purchases or stopped buying altogether.

The tariffs were framed around unfair trade practices, intellectual property theft, and protecting American manufacturing—not improving labor conditions abroad.

What if this awful, awful dark period in our lives somehow gives the Vietnamese or Cambodian worker a better life because the US is no longer willing to buy goods from countries that exploit their workforce?

I don't see how they can get a better life out of this, someone has to absorb the cost. In fact, many Southeast Asian countries saw trade increases as U.S. firms tried to move supply chains out of China.

What if American workers get a fair shake to do work for American consumers?

That’s the hope but for American workers to truly get a fair shake, tariffs need to be part of a larger plan. That means investing in domestic industries, enforcing labor standards, and making sure working people, not just corporations, benefit from any policy shifts.
