Deep dives
Pro-Palestinian Protests Block Bridges
Pro-Palestinian protests shut down bridges in major cities in the US and Canada. Protesters called for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, blocking traffic for at least an hour. In San Francisco, cars were parked on the Bay Bridge and dozens of protesters were arrested. Boston and Montreal also experienced bridge blockades, causing major traffic congestion. In Washington, DC, protesters surrounded the Democratic National Committee's headquarters, leading to the evacuation of top lawmakers.
TikTok Trend of 9-11 Apologists
TikTok has seen a recent trend of apologists for the 9-11 terror attacks. These videos are based on a letter to America written by Osama bin Laden, the mastermind behind the attacks. TikTok has stated that these videos violate their rules and are working to remove them. However, the platform downplays their significance, calling them a small number of videos.
Controversy Surrounding Weight Loss Drug Ozempic
There are growing concerns about the weight loss drug Ozempic. A woman in Australia died after taking the drug, and her family claims the drug was responsible. The drug manufacturer, Novo Nordisk, stands by the safety of the drug when used as directed. However, there have been lawsuits and warnings about severe side effects, including gastrointestinal symptoms and potential thyroid tumors. Despite these concerns, Ozempic and similar weight loss injectables are becoming increasingly popular, with millions of active prescriptions in the US. Other drug companies are also promoting similar injectables for weight loss.
