Border crisis: Over 1,000 migrants rush bridge linking Mexico to US in El Paso, Texas: Customs and Border Protection increased number of agents at border in response to sudden rush. Footage first shared with Fox News shows the crowd screaming and even jumping for joy Sunday afternoon as they start streaming onto the Paso Del Norte bridge from Juárez under a sign saying “Feliz Viaje,” or “Happy travels.” The rush followed a rumor that the border was being opened to give them fast-tracked political asylum in the US, according to Mexican outlet Norte Digital.

Nitrous oxide ‘more dangerous than cocaine’ and leaving kids unable to walk: Nitrous oxide known as whippets is “more dangerous than cocaine,” and some kids are taking 150 canisters a day. The substance – commonly known whippets or laughing gas – is a commonly used drug among 16-24-year-olds. Nitrous oxide, which is sold in single-use silver canisters, is dispensed into balloons and inhaled to create a temporary feeling of relaxation and euphoria. Heavy regular use can lead to a range of side effects which include dizziness, weakness in the legs and impaired memory.

You’ve Heard of Fentanyl and Oxytocin—Now, Here’s What Parents Need To Know About Xylazine: The drug is actually not an opioid. Rather, it’s a sedative used in veterinary medicine. “The drug is used mainly for large animals in the veterinarian field for medical procedures,” Demara says. “[It is] not meant for the human population but can be seen in drugs that are used today, such as fentanyl. This drug can mimic the use of a tranquilizer as well.”

San Francisco considers reparations proposal to give $5 million per black person: Progressive city’s Board of Supervisors meeting to debate reparations recommendations despite backlash.  Payments of $5 million to every eligible Black adult, the elimination of personal debt and tax burdens, guaranteed annual incomes of at least $97,000 for 250 years and homes in San Francisco for just $1 a family. These were some of the more than 100 recommendations made by a city-appointed reparations committee tasked with the thorny question of how to atone for centuries of slavery and systemic racism.

Bank Crisis Reveals Numerous Federal Reserve Failures: Bad financial supervision, a panicky response, and now the Fed has created a trigger policy for more inflation. But fear not! The nation’s strategic bullshit reserve is inexhaustible, a fact being eminently reinforced in the wake of the collapse of SVB, and federal regulators’ backdoor bailout of the rest of the system. The gaslighting has reached mission-critical levels, in fact.

Examining America’s War in Iraq After 20 Years. It was a blunder. Worse than that, it was a crime: As it turned out, neither the U.S. military mission nor the broader cause of liberty and peace were accomplished by May 2003, nor were they in the months and years to follow. Mendacious in its beginnings, incompetent in its aftermath, and downright criminal in the death and civilizational wreckage it caused, the Iraq War was a catastrophe America has not yet properly reckoned with.
