JD Vance and Susie Wiles pushed Elon Musk to repair his relationship with President Trump

A recent poll by Ipsos shows that more Canadians are steering clear of U.S. goods and travel as tensions over Trump-era trade policies linger. The survey reveals that frustration toward the U.S. is still widespread, while national pride among Canadians has bounced back after a slump in recent years.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about shopping habits—it’s a sign of how political friction can ripple into everyday life. If Canadians keep distancing themselves from U.S. products and travel, it could hurt cross-border businesses and deepen economic divides. Plus, the rebound in Canadian pride suggests people are rallying around homegrown alternatives, which could reshape long-term trade dynamics.

The Senate is grinding through a marathon voting session on Trump's massive budget bill—a key part of his agenda—but it’s causing rifts even among Republicans. Meanwhile, Elon Musk is stirring the pot, threatening to campaign against any lawmakers who back the bill, calling out its $3.3 trillion deficit increase as hypocritical for those who promised fiscal restraint.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another policy debate—it’s a high-stakes showdown with real consequences. If the bill passes, it could reshape spending priorities for years, but the backlash (from figures like Musk and within Congress itself) shows how divisive fiscal policy has become. For voters, it’s a litmus test: Which side will lawmakers choose—party loyalty or their campaign promises?

The family of Kaylee Goncalves, one of the victims in the Bryan Kohberger murder case, says they were thrown into chaos after learning Kohberger took a plea deal to dodge the death penalty. They described feeling blindsided and panicked, scrambling to process the sudden turn of events.

Editor’s Note: Plea deals can be a legal shortcut, but for victims' families, they often feel like a gut punch—especially in high-profile cases where closure is already fragile. This story highlights the emotional whiplash families endure when the justice system moves in ways they never saw coming.

Tropical Storm Flossie has quickly intensified into a hurricane off Mexico’s Pacific coast, catching forecasters’ attention with its rapid development. While its exact path is still uncertain, coastal communities are bracing for potential impacts.

Editor’s Note: Hurricanes can bring dangerous winds, heavy rain, and flooding—especially when they strengthen this fast. For people in southwestern Mexico, this means keeping an eye on updates and preparing for possible evacuations or disruptions. It’s also a reminder of how unpredictable storm seasons can be as climate change fuels more extreme weather.

Thailand’s Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra has been temporarily suspended by the court amid rising public frustration over her government’s response to a recent border clash with Cambodia. The tension escalated on May 28 when a Cambodian soldier was killed in an armed confrontation, fueling criticism of her leadership.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about a legal technicality—it’s a sign of deeper political instability in Thailand. Paetongtarn, part of the influential Shinawatra family, was already under scrutiny, and this border crisis seems to have tipped the scales. With tensions high between Thailand and Cambodia, her suspension could delay resolutions or even spark further unrest. For Thais, it’s another chapter in the country’s turbulent political saga.
