- SEN. MARCO RUBIO SAYS 83% OF USAID PROGRAMS CUT FOLLOWING SIX-WEEK GOVERNMENT PURGE: This decision led to the cancellation of approximately 5,200 out of 6,200 contracts, deemed misaligned with U.S. national interests.

- DOJ LAUNCHES INVESTIGATION INTO MAJOR EGG PRODUCERS AS PRICES SKYROCKET: Over the past year, the average cost of a dozen eggs has risen by approximately 50%, reaching $4.95—a 240% increase compared to five years ago.
