A tacit admission from Trump that the Iranian nuclear program wasn’t actually “obliterated” by the previous U.S. air strikes (as he claimed at the time).

Potential impact if Europe fail to support Ukraine. The lack of funding and feeling of betrayal might cause the Ukrainian armed forces to collapse. The results would be another 5 - 10M refugees flooding western Europe, a Russia that controls Ukrainian industry and a Russian advance far into the EU.

The passing of Paul Newman (2008), Sean Connery (2020), Sidney Poitier (2022), and now Robert Redford (2025) signals the slow disappearance of a certain type of 20th century figure: men who embodied classic style in a way that reflected their taste, rather than a professional stylist.

This fall will be the first big stress test for US clothing retailers. Trump announced his first big round of tariff hikes on April 2 ("Liberation Day"), after most stores received their spring/summer deliveries. It's an open question how they will handle fall/winter deliveries with 10-145% tariffs.
