Offensive..

 
Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) suggested Friday that the New York hush money case against former President Trump was only brought forward because of his name and White House bid.  

Cuomo, in an interview Friday on HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher,” argued that the case should have “never” been brought forward.  

“If his name was not Donald Trump and if he wasn’t running for president… I’m the former AG of in New York [and] I’m telling you that case would’ve never been brought.” 

“That’s what is offensive to people, and it should be because if there’s anything left, it’s belief in the justice system,” he added.

Judy..

 
Judge Judy” Sheindlin is calling Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s (D) hush money case against former President Trump “nonsense.”

“You gotta twist yourself into a pretzel to figure out what the crime was. [Bragg] doesn’t like him — New York City didn’t like him for a while,” Sheindlin said of Trump in a “Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace?” interview streaming Friday on Max.

would be happier, as someone who owns property in Manhattan, if the district attorney of New York County would take care of criminals who were making it impossible for citizens to walk in the streets and use the subway, to use his efforts to keep those people off the street, than to spend $5 million or $10 million of taxpayers’ money trying Donald Trump on this nonsense,” the longtime TV judge told Wallace

Horror..

 

Israeli Air Force (IAF) has grounded an F-16 squadron stationed at Ramon Air Base for three weeks following two serious incidents of incorrect target attacks in Gaza. 
The first incident involved the entry of incorrect coordinates on the ground, leading to an unintended target being struck.

Despite procedural changes implemented after this initial mistake, a similar error occurred just days later during an overnight mission aimed at five targets in the Gaza Strip. In this second incident, a digit in one of the target coordinates was mistyped, resulting in another incorrect target being attacked.

“There was no compliance with procedures for verifying targets on the ground,” an IAF spokesperson stated, attributing the mishaps to “negligence in entering the waypoints, failure to comply with procedures in performing additional controls by the crew, [and] failure to change habits — even though the procedures were changed after the first mistake.”

Economy..

 

The “World in 2050” report by PwC projects China to become the world’s largest economy, contributing around 20% of the global GDP.

China has already surpassed the United States in purchasing power parity (PPP) and is poised to become the world’s largest economy before 2030. By 2050, India is expected to hold the third-largest economy spot.

In another report from the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the global population is expected to exceed 9 billion by 2050. This surge will place unprecedented pressure on natural resources crucial for energy and food production.

Despite the recent global recession, the world GDP is anticipated to nearly quadruple by 2050. However, the economic trajectories of various regions will diverge significantly.

Ditch..

 A nine-member bipartisan group of New York City Council members is pushing for the city to ditch its "sanctuary city" label in light of increased migrant flows and violence, with a leading official. 

We have enough criminals in this city; we don't need to import more and protect them as well," Holden told Newsweek. "Repealing the laws that have created a sanctuary city status is common sense.

"Those who are wanted for heinous crimes back home or commit crimes in our country should be deported without hesitation. We aim to end this reckless social experiment once and for all."

Jockeying..

 

A jockeying between the largest stocks in the U.S. market is particularly significant this week, as Nvidia's performance could trigger a major shift in a $70 billion fund.

Currently, Apple and Microsoft each hold about 22% of the fund, while Nvidia, despite being close in market cap, holds less than 6%.

‍S&P Dow Jones Indices’ rules suggest that a similar disparity could emerge again in this rebalance. The race to secure one of the top two spots is tight, with the market caps of Microsoft, Apple, and Nvidia all within $100 billion of each other as of Thursday’s close, according to FactSet.

Return..

 

The US has spent $51.2 billion in military assistance for Ukraine since Russia invaded in 2022, according to a recent fact sheet published by the State Department. 

Ukraine has received over four million shells, 400,000,000 small arms rounds, and grenades, as well as hundreds of advanced missile systems, tanks, armored vehicles, artillery pieces, river patrol boats, and electronic warfare technologies.

Comment:

We gave $200 Billion dollars assistance in a year.

The return is 

Inflation that hit 10% in US and 20% in Europe.

Food shortage worldwide.

Ignoring urgent problems in US like US Debt, South Border Migrant, higher prices of food and energy, safety and security of the city of USA. Just a thought.
