A new, highly transmissible COVID subvariant has been detected in California

as recent moves by the Trump administration threaten to make vaccines harder to get,
and more expensive,
for many Americans,
some health experts warn.

As the debate over the BBB moves to the Senate, the immediate imperative is to
expose the damage the bill does to millions of Trump’s voters
to benefit his Mar-a-Lago and crypto-wealthy friends.
But it’s also an occasion to shatter the illusion that Trump is some sort of policy innovator.
Extremism and authoritarianism are not new ideas, and his legislative program would be familiar to Calvin Coolidge.

You don't have to have watched anything else to get it, but the other stories fill in context.
That said, I'd start with 1883, to this, to Yellowstone if I was new to it.

Trump went on a digression about his recent trip to the Middle East, where, he claimed, he made a lot of money.
“I’m only here for one thing, to see if I can end it, to save 5,000 lives a week and a lot of money, the money being much less important because I made that money,” he continued.
"I went to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and U.A.E., and we brought back $5.1 trillion.
So, I made that money in about two hours, the money that we’re talking about.
