The Mexican president came out publicly and said he would not fight the drug cartels on behalf of the U.S. — basically conceding that drugs moving from Mexico to the U.S. are a U.S. problem. This arrogant position is directly related to the hordes of immigrants attacking our southern border without any action from Mexico. Mexico is a failed nation that should no longer be considered an ally. Mexico must be held accountable.
Spring is here, so you know what that means: A home refresh is in order, and right now, it’s never been easier. In celebration of the new season, Amazon has kicked off its first-ever Big Spring Sale.

The quest to find effective treatments for Alzheimer’s disease has historically been a lost cause — a field littered with failed drugs and dashed hopes. According to a recent systematic review, between 2003 and 2022, researchers tested 100 compounds against the devastating cognitive disease in phase II and III trials.

Other than the fact that spring weather has arrived, there’s even more to celebrate as the new season begins: Tons of retailers are throwing major sales. Amazon’s first-ever Big Spring Sale started last week, and Walmart’s Super Spring Savings event is still in full swing. If you’ve been wanting to refresh your living room or update your bedding, this is your sign to grab the items on your wish list while they’re marked down.
Fashion brand Hermès makes the iconic Birkin handbag so unfairly exclusive that it breaks federal law, a new lawsuit alleges. The plaintiffs, two Californians, say in a complaint filed on Tuesday that despite repeated attempts to buy the coveted luxury item that retails for around $10,000 a bag at the low end, they’ve been thwarted by Hermès—which, they argue, arbitrarily ties sales to customers’ “purchase histories” in a way that goes against U.S. antitrust law.
