Deadly Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever Epidemic Spiking In Mexico-US

California has recorded triple the number of cases of tick-borne fever between 2013-2022 - one of the deadliest in the Americas, mainly transmitted via ticks carried by dogs - compared to the previous decade.

The increase in cases has been attributed to rising temperatures and roaming packs of dogs in under-developed areas - one village in Mexico’s Baja California has recorded three deaths since 2020, with the state’s cases doubling last year alone.

Experts say the disease is near-impossible to track as it spikes and disappears rapidly and warn that the bacterium that causes the condition is present in almost every US state.

Zelensky ‘Pissed Off’ Biden During First Meeting

A highly anticipated new book reveals that Vladimir Zelensky's initial Oval Office encounter with Joe Biden didn't go well, with the Ukrainian leader's push to join NATO and “absurd analysis” of alliance dynamics left the US president “pissed off.”

“Even Zelensky’s most ardent sympathizers in the [Biden] administration agreed that he had bombed,” Franklin Foer, author of The Last Politician: Inside Joe Biden’s White House and the Struggle for America’s Future, writes of the meeting in September 2021.

San Francisco Official Sacked After ‘Doom Loop’ Tour

A San Francisco city official was forced to resign after offering the now-canceled “Doom Loop Walking Tour” that showed off the city’s troubled areas.

Infrastructure VP Alex Ludlum claimed the $30 tours, sold with the tagline "get close and personal to the Doom and Squalor of downtown San Francisco,” were meant to be satire.

Adverts claimed the “political junkie, & opinionated loudmouth" tour guide was going to help people understand "the policy choices that made America's wealthiest city the nation's innovative leader of housing crisis, addiction crisis, mental-health crisis, & unrepentant crime crisis.”

Lithuania Summons Vatican Diplomat Over ‘Great Russia’ Remarks

Zelensky's F-16 Fixation Questioned By West

According to the New York Times, Vladimir Zelensky’s frenzied drive to secure as many F-16 jets as possible after his recent European tour is a sign of desperation ahead of the looming elections.

While the Biden administration has signaled a willingness to give the green light, Republican frontrunner Donald Trump said last month he’d tell Zelensky “no more — you got to make a deal.”

US officials have said there are only eight Ukrainian pilots fluent enough in English even to start training - at least a four-month process itself - while Gen. James B. Hecker, the top US air commander in Europe, insisted their arrival in Ukraine would “help a little bit, but it’s not the silver bullet.”

Teacher Boots Out Middle-Schooler For ‘Slavery’ Backpack Badge

A Colorado middle-schooler was reportedly kicked out of class by his teacher who claimed a badge on his backpack that read ‘Don’t Tread On Me’ had origins in slavery, despite the boy’s mother explaining its roots were from the Revolutionary War.

State Governor Jared Polis, a Democrat, defended the boy, tweeting: “The Gadsden flag is a proud symbol of the American revolution and an iconic warning to Britain or any government not to violate the liberties of Americans.”

School directors insisted that the Gadsen Flag - which shows the slogan below a coiled snake - was only part of the issue, given other badges showing semi-automatic weapons. Still, they reversed their ban after a public backlash.

Burger King Telling Whoppers: Lawsuit Over Fake Supersizing Menu

Fast food giant Burger King has slammed a lawsuit claiming it has misled customers over the size of its Whopper burger on menu pictures as false, after earlier claiming it didn’t have to deliver burgers that look “exactly like the picture.”

The class action lawsuit claims the chain made Whoppers appear 35% larger and contain twice as much meat as reality, but Burger King insists it uses the same patties in adverts and restaurants.

US District Judge Roy Altman said jurors should leave it to "tell us what reasonable people think.”

New Delhi Sets Out Its Oil Purchasing Policy

India will purchase crude oil from any source that can offer shipments at the lowest price, Oil Minister Hardeep Singh Puri told broadcaster ET Now on Wednesday.

California Moves Closer To Historic Caste Discrimination Ban

California moved closer to becoming the first US state to ban caste discrimination by adding it to the categories protected under the state's anti-discrimination laws.

The bill was introduced and authored by state Senator Aisha Wahab, an Afghan American Democrat, in March. An earlier version of it passed the state Senate before undergoing revisions.

The state Assembly passed the bill on Monday with a near-unanimous vote. The revised version will now move back for a voice to the state Senate, where it is expected to pass before heading to the desk of California Governor Gavin Newsom to be signed into law.
