MAHA Keeps Being Weird as Hell About Fertility

WIRED

RFK Jr. and Mehmet Oz's comments about teen sperm count and "underbabied" Americans at a recent women's health event underscore the White House's pronatalist agenda. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., secretary of Health and Human Services, and President Donald Trump discuss workplace IVF benefits on October 16, 2025, in Washington, DC. The home page for Moms.gov, the Trump administration's recently launched website for "new and expecting mothers," is a trad wife's dream. Featuring soft pastel graphics and a photo of a young, white, blond woman in a field clutching her pregnant belly, the website offers resources for women of reproductive age such as anti-abortion "pregnancy centers," as well as a CDC website listing potential workplace hazards for expecting mothers without noting accompanying legal protections for pregnant women. If you were conspiratorially minded, you might conclude from the website alone that the Trump administration is champing at the bit for young (white and blond) women to have as many (white and blond) babies as possible.

The Florida Panthers star joined The Pat McAfee Show on Thursday and discussed his plan to play for Team USA at the 2026 IIHF World Championship in Switzerland. USA Hockey's preliminary roster, announced May 7, includes Tkachuk for the first time, since the Panthers failed to reach the NHL playoffs this season. The tournament begins May 15 in Zurich and Fribourg, and the Americans are trying to win back-to-back gold medals at the event for the first time ever. Tkachuk made his mindset pretty clear.

The Allbirds Pivot Is a Terrible Idea … Right?

The Atlantic - Technology

The Allbirds Pivot Is a Terrible Idea Right? Its turn to AI could be an escape hatch for a company with nothing to lose. This is an edition of The Daily, a newsletter that guides you through the biggest stories of the day, helps you discover new ideas, and recommends the best in culture. Walk into any Silicon Valley office in the late 2010s, and you'd probably see at least one pair of Allbirds. Woolly and eco-friendly, the sneakers once epitomized a certain kind of corporate culture (even Barack Obama was a fan), and the company behind them was valued at roughly $4 billion at its peak, in 2021.


Don't Listen to Anyone Who Thinks Secession Will Solve Anything

WIRED

Don't Listen to Anyone Who Thinks Secession Will Solve Anything Americans increasingly fantasize about a divorce between red and blue states--but they dread the thought of civil war. You can't have one without the other. It's become almost like a histamine response: After a shocking national event like the assassination of Charlie Kirk, or Donald Trump's deployment of the military to Los Angeles last June, mentions of the term " civil war " and calls for secession surge online. This kind of talk flared again in January, when two citizens were shot and killed by immigration agents on the streets of Minneapolis, and governor Tim Walz mobilized the Minnesota National Guard to be ready to support local law enforcement. "I mean, is this a Fort Sumter?" Walz said in an interview with The Atlantic, invoking the battle that sparked the Civil War.


US's new scramble for Africa is biomedical imperialism

Al Jazeera

US's new scramble for Africa is biomedical imperialism Late in February, Zimbabwe pulled out of a proposed $367m United States health funding agreement after objecting to provisions requiring broad American access to sensitive health data. The five-year programme was presented as support for HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria and epidemic preparedness efforts. However, the terms demanded extensive sharing of national health intelligence, including epidemiological surveillance data and pathogen samples, while offering no binding guarantees that Zimbabwe would receive equitable access to medical technologies developed from them. Harare called the proposal an "unequal exchange", warning that Zimbabwe risked supplying the "raw materials for scientific discovery" while the resulting benefits could remain concentrated in the United States and global pharmaceutical firms. Critics increasingly describe this pattern as biomedical extractivism: a toxic combination of exploitative research practices and colonial thinking that reinforces Western dominance.

European nations are already being reluctantly pulled into the crisis, deploying military assets to defend allies while trying to avoid direct involvement. Military analysts have warned that if the fighting expands and draws in Iran's powerful allies, including Russia and China, the risk of a catastrophic global war could rise dramatically.
