#1 Canadian Tariffs on U.S. Milk, Perfume, Golf Clubs and Other Goods Take Effect as Trade War Grinds On - Joe Walsh for CBS News, Worldwide News Network, Gunther Eagleman™, Prasad Jacob, and CityNews Montreal on X
Canada's steep retaliatory tariffs on $20 billion in U.S. goods took effect just after midnight ET on Tuesday, extending the trade war between the two countries. The Canadian government announced the planned tariffs two weeks ago, after trade negotiations broke down and the Trump administration followed through on a threat to impose 50% duties on $20 billion worth of goods from Canada. Officials in Canada have vowed to match the U.S. levies "dollar for dollar." Canada's tariffs range from 15% to 50%. American milk, perfume, video game consoles, golf clubs, fishing rods, steel, aluminum, jackets, and T-shirts will face 50% tariffs. Cheese, carpets, and certain household appliances like stoves and air conditioners will be subject to 25% tariffs, and forklifts and industrial molds will face 15% tariffs...

For three days this summer, teachers converged at the Flight 93 National Memorial in remote western Pennsylvania to talk about 9/11. How best to educate a new generation about the attacks 25 years ago? Which details are appropriate for young kids? What do victims’ families want students to be told about the dead? “Even worse than getting started wrong or using inappropriate language is the total omission of telling the story,” Gordon Felt, whose brother Edward Felt died on United Airlines Flight 93 on Sept. 11, told teachers in one session. “That’s our biggest fear.”

#7 GLP-1 Prescriptions for Kids up More Than 30,000 Percent Since 2019 - Stephanie Sokol for The Hill, #TuckFrump, Molecule Trader, The Healthy Pitmaster, Polymarket/Tides, and Camus on X
Over the last seven years, GLP-1 medication use in children aged 8 to 11 has increased by nearly 31,000 percent, according to a new NYU Langone Health study. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved any GLP-1 medication for children under 12, but in drastic circumstances, doctors have prescribed it off-label. Researchers analyzed health records for 3,520,531 children with obesity but without diabetes. The share of those children ages 8 to 11 who were prescribed a GLP-1 rose from 0.03 percent in 2019 to 9.3 percent in 2026 — a 310-fold increase. Kids with obesity-related conditions, from high cholesterol to sleep apnea, were substantially more likely to be prescribed the drugs than those without...

#10 Trump Takes Center Stage at Historic GOP Midterm Convention as Republicans Fight to Defy Political History - Paul Steinhauser for Fox News, And We Know©🇺🇸, Louis Montoya, Gunther Eagleman™, and Dallas Morning News on X
With less than two months to go until the midterm elections, President Donald Trump and Republicans gather in Texas this week for the first-ever GOP midterm convention, as they aim to energize the party's base to turn out in key races that will determine if Republicans keep control of Congress. Democrats and Republicans traditionally hold large nominating conventions during presidential election years. But Trump a year ago floated the idea of a similar gathering ahead of the midterms, to showcase the signature policy achievements he and the Republicans in Congress produced the past two years. The president called the convention "a truly Historic Event" and "a RALLY like none other!" when he announced it earlier this summer...
