Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

The Trump regime has decided to destroy $9.7m worth of contraceptives rather than send them abroad — it will cost US taxpayers $167,000. The contraceptives are primarily long-acting, such as IUDs and birth control implants, and were intended for women in Africa, www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
