TL;DR:

The Trump administration scrapped a Biden-era plan that would have forced poultry companies to limit salmonella levels in raw chicken and turkey—a move meant to prevent food poisoning.

Another rule delaying stricter salmonella checks on frozen breaded chicken (like cordon bleu) was also pushed back.

Sorry, I'm just summarizing the article to practice my writing. if it isn't in the article I usually won't catch it. Thanks for the additional context though!

TLDR:

Israeli airstrikes killed at least six Palestinians guarding aid trucks in Gaza, according to Hamas, as aid distribution struggles due to looting and delays.

Israel says it allowed 300 trucks in since easing its blockade, but aid groups say it’s not enough and many supplies are stuck at the border.

The UN warns of extreme hunger, with two million people at risk of famine. Meanwhile, Israel intensified strikes overnight, hitting 75 targets.

The conflict, ongoing since October 2023, has killed over 53,600 Palestinians,

Well at least I'm not the only one who's been through this.

As soomeone who works in IT I can guarantee you it's not a stall tactic. Our ticketing software is, in fact, so garbage it would take us four times as long to get the information from our system as it would to ask you for it.

TLDR:

The Trump administration barred Harvard from enrolling or retaining international students, accusing the school of fostering antisemitism, violence, and ties to China.

DHS revoked Harvard’s student visa program certification, forcing current foreign students to transfer or lose status.

A federal judge temporarily blocked the administration from acting against current students.

TL;DR:

Greenland struck a major minerals deal with a European consortium, sidelining Trump’s push to control the island’s resources. The 30-year permit for Greenland Anorthosite Mining (GAM) to extract aluminum-rich anorthosite signals stronger EU-Denmark cooperation.

Greenland’s minister stated that European partners move faster, and U.S. delegations have yet to translate rhetoric into action. Greenland’s strict mining laws prevent land grabs and idle speculation blocking Trump’s preferred playbook of securing long-term rights without immediate development.

TL;DR:

World leaders are rethinking White House visits after Trump’s confrontational tactics turned diplomatic meetings into political ambushes. South African President Cyril Ramaphosa was blindsided by Trump pushing debunked far-right claims about "White farmer genocide," complete with a dramatic, lights-dimmed slideshow of sensationalized headlines.

The pattern mirrors Zelensky’s tense Oval Office grilling earlier this year, because of this repeated intimidation a White House invitation now carries reputational risk.

I know this one doesn't say a lot that the headline doesn't but I'm still putting it here to save people the trouble of reading the article.
