Description

Prescription drug tariffs could skyrocket by 2028, risking higher costs for those who need affordable meds most — a risky move that might backfire on the very people it’s meant to help. Meanwhile, Portland’s 2024 City Council candidates are facing legal gray areas after allegedly swapping donations to meet campaign funding rules, though prosecutors are choosing not to pursue charges. On the national front, NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani is calling Israeli PM Netanyahu a war criminal and demanding federal action as he prepares to visit the U.S., despite the U.S. not being part of the ICC. And in a major legal reversal, a Columbia student detained without charges for activism is now being routed through immigration courts — a case that could reshape how activists are treated under federal law.
