‘Find somebody who loves you as much as Nancy Pelosi loves insider trading!’ — 'Coolest VP' Vance roasts fmr speaker

"US Vice President JD Vance took a jibe at Nancy Pelosi, saying he has never seen the former speaker ‘more angry’ in his life than when President Donald Trump talks about insider trading. “My hope for all of you is that you find somebody who loves you as much as Nancy Pelosi loves insider trading, because then you will have a very good life indeed,” said Vance mockingly, during his address at the Precision Manufacturing Facility in Wisconsin on Thursday. Trump has also previously accused Pelosi and her husband of using insider information to get rich on Wall Street and has called for an investigation. At the State of the Union address earlier this week, Trump directly targeted Pelosi while she was in the chamber, discussing the ‘Stop Insider Trading Act'. Trump called her an ‘evil woman’ and a ‘tremendous liability’ when she announced her retirement in November last year. Vance also joked about being praised as the ‘coolest vice president', saying it was a low bar but certainly one he believes that he clears."

'People's lives are not rhetorical' - UN warns of acute humanitarian crisis with Cuba in ‘systemic energy shock’ amid blockade

'People's lives are not rhetorical' - UN warns of acute humanitarian crisis with Cuba in ‘systemic energy shock’ amid blockade

"The UN Resident Coordinator in Cuba, Francisco Pichon, issued a warning on Thursday about the deterioration of the humanitarian situation on the island as a result of fuel shortages. During a press briefing at the United Nations headquarters in New York, the official explained that a month on from Washington restricting the energy supply to Cuba, the impact can no longer be considered temporary. He added that the fuel shortage is causing significant damage, since fuel on the island enables hospitals and water pumping facilities to operate, as well as food distribution and the transportation of medicines. "It's almost one month after the US executive order that has created a fuel blockade for Cuba. The blockade still persists, and his humanitarian consequences are really deepening," he explained. Pichon explained that Cuba continues to be designated by Washington as an "unusual and extraordinary threat" to US national security, but the impact of the action on ordinary Cubans is akin to collective punishment. "The risks to people's lives are not rhetorical. And those who suffer first and suffer most are the ordinary people. In Cuba, for example, we have 5 million people living with chronic illnesses which have treatments that are at risk due to the current energy situation," Pichon said. According to the diplomat, Cuba produces some heavy oil for power generation, but the supply is limited, according to UN data. "Cuba depends 90% on fossil fuel for energy generation and that there is a significant deficit of more than 30% of the minimum demand that is required," he explained. Regarding possible solutions, the Pichon confirmed that Mexico has offered to send oil to Cuba as part of humanitarian assistance, and that there are other countries willing to contribute, although this requires negotiating a humanitarian exemption with the United States."
