Despite President Trump declaring the war in Gaza “over,” the
situation on the ground is far from certain. Israel has
threatened to block some of the humanitarian aid approved in the
deal until Hamas fulfills its promise of returning all the bodies
of dead hostages. That hasn’t deterred the president from
promoting himself as a peacemaker. What’s motivating his
aggressive push to take credit for the deal?





The Middle East is just one part of Trump’s foreign policy push.
Just this week, he agreed to provide $40 billion in relief for
Argentina’s struggling economy. However, Americans are hoping he
narrows his focus to domestic issues. Recent
polling shows that concerns about the economy remain top
of mind for most, and there are worries that Trump isn’t focused
enough on reducing inflation. Is the administration running the
risk of losing touch with voters?





Many of us are trying to reckon with a culture that glorifies the
“grind” of constant work. Focusing solely on rest and relaxation
is one way of pushing back, but what if you overdo it? In the
constant search for balance, one writer shares thoughts
on “pruning” our lives to provide room for reflection
and real connection.
