Kids..


Michael and Susan Dell on Tuesday announced that they are donating $6.25 billion to fund investment accounts for at least 25 million American children.

The enormous pledge will go toward helping fund “Trump Accounts,” a new initiative that offers investment accounts for children. The “Trump Accounts” were established as part of President Donald Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” and are set to launch in 2026.

It’s The Dells’ charitable gift will go toward children ages 10 and under who were born before the cut-off for the Treasury’s funding. The Dells’ donation will fund $250 deposits for investment accounts for at least 25 million children, resulting in a total gift of $6.25 billion. of the largest private investments in American children in history, according to Invest America, a nonprofit organization helping spearhead the initiative to develop these accounts.

“We feel super excited to be able to make a difference in millions of children’s futures and create opportunity, hope and prosperity for them,” Michael Dell, CEO at Dell Technologies, told CNN in a phone interview.

Fee..

 


The US Border Patrol warned Friday it will be imposing a $5,000 “apprehension fee” to all illegal migrants caught in the country.

The penalty was approved under President Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill,” and is in addition to other fines already levied against some illegal immigrants taken into custody, Border Patrol Chief Michael Banks said in a Friday statement on X.

.Banks said that any migrants “age 14 or older” who entered or were brought into the US “without inspection” will be slapped with a $5,000 fee.

The new “apprehension fee” was included in Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act that was approved by Congress in early July.

The act allowed for upwards of $170 billion to be put towards immigration enforcement over the next four years.

Since Trump entered office for his second term, illegal border crossings have plummeted to their lowest level since 1970.

Immigrations and Customs Enforcement have been conducting raids across the country, including in New York City and Los Angeles.

It looks like the Democrats in New York applying "Congestion Pricing" which was opposed by the President.

Arrest..

 




Armed agents stormed a rural New York factory in September, arresting nearly 60 workers in the state’s largest immigration raid since Trump returned to office, according to Times Union.

Most detainees are still jailed or deported. Some had valid asylum claims or work permits, but were swept up anyway. One man, Edwin OrdoƱez Luna, was granted asylum but lost his home, job, and girlfriend in the chaos.

Federal officials are now investigating whether Nutrition Bar Confectioners knowingly hired undocumented workers. The raid has left families reeling, with children separated from parents, and a growing legal fight challenging the raid’s legitimacy.

A country of law abiding people or just some are abiding and some are enriching themselves taking advantage of others?

The Democratic Party is embracing anyone out of anywhere?

Peace..

 


Federal agents wearing tactical gear and wielding assault rifles busted into an apartment in Jackson Heights Thursday morning as a helicopter hovered overhead, according to eyewitnesses and video obtained by THE CITY.

The agents, including Homeland Security Investigations officers along with others wearing jackets emblazoned only with “POLICE,” were there with a “search and seizure warrant” authorizing them to take any electronic device and that made no mention of any particular resident. The warrant had been signed by Eastern District Magistrate Judge Robert M. Levy.

The agents left with a small box, along with a man and a woman who both appeared to be in their 40s or 50s and spoke Spanish, according to eyewitnesses and video reviewed by THE CITY.

Comment:

The Media and the Democratic politician making a big case against any federal action in  New York against illegal activities by some.   

We pay taxes for the federal government to get their services in New York. However, protecting illegal activities, by legals or illegals is not helping the illegal or the legitimate.

We pay taxes for peaceful existence and safety of living. Going to work, for an honest day work. Exempt some and protecting some for wrongdoing, doesn't help anyone, not even the Democratic party itself.    Just a thought.

Products..

The U.S. Department of Justice announced on Tuesday that three warehouses in the Kansas City metro had thousands of illegal products containing 7-hydroxymitragine (7-OH) seized as part of a government operation.
According to a news release, the Justice Department, alongside the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), seized roughly 73,000 “units” of illegal products containing 7-OH at several warehouses run by two companies in the Kansas City area.
Products containing concentrated 7-OH are considered illegal under federal law because the FDA has determined there is inadequate information to assure they do not present a significant risk of injury or illness
The government alleged that the two local firms had previously received warnings that the distribution of 7-OH products was illegal under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act; however, the firms continued to sell the products.

Yolk..

 


 Arecent research suggests that consuming two or more eggs per week may be associated with a reduced risk of developing Alzheimer's dementia. The potential protective effect is primarily linked to the nutrient choline, which is abundant in egg yolks.
One large-scale study involving over 1,000 older adults found that those who ate more than one egg per week had a 47% lower risk of developing Alzheimer's dementia compared to those who rarely ate eggs.
  •  Post-mortem brain autopsies of some participants showed that those with higher egg consumption had less accumulation of the toxic proteins (amyloid plaques) associated with Alzheimer's disease.
  •  About 39% of the protective effect of eggs on Alzheimer's risk was attributed to dietary choline intake. Choline is an essential nutrient for memory, mood, and brain cell communication.
  •  Eggs also provide other beneficial nutrients for brain health, including omega-3 fatty acids, lutein, zeaxanthin, vitamin B12, and selenium.
  •  These findings show an association, not a direct cause-and-effect relationship.  
  • Eggs are part of an overall healthy diet. Their benefits are likely amplified when combined with other nutrient-dense foods like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.
  •  For most healthy adults, an egg a day is considered safe as part of a balanced diet. However, individuals with high cholesterol or specific health conditions should consult with their healthcare provider or a registered dietitian to determine the appropriate amount for their needs.

Stones..

 

Larry Summers has been handed a lifetime ban from the American Economic Association.

The AEA did not specifically cite convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, but referenced Summers' "conduct, as reflected in publicly reported communications," as inconsistent with the prestigious association's integrity standards. The move from the association came weeks after the emails became public.

Summers, a former Harvard president and US Treasury Secretary under Bill Clinton, has faced sharp scrutiny in recent weeks after a trove of recently released emails detailed his years of correspondence with Epstein that continued until July 5, 2019 — the day before the disgraced financier was arrested on federal sex-trafficking charges.

Business Insider reported that Summers would be stepping back from public life after the emails revealed he had sought Epstein's advice on how to pursue a romantic relationship with a woman he referred to as his mentee.

Summers stepped down from his teaching position at Harvard University on November 21.

The ban from the AEA prohibits Summers from attending, speaking at, or otherwise participating in events or activities sponsored by the nonprofit academic association, which has over 17,000 members.
