Democrats Scramble to Counter Texas GOP Redistricting Push

Democrats are raising alarms over a Republican-led redistricting plan in Texas that could flip up to five congressional seats to the GOP. With a narrow House majority, such a shift would strengthen Republican control.

Analysts note recent price hikes in appliances, toys, and household goods, with companies like Adidas, Walmart, and Procter & Gamble citing tariffs as the cause.

Feeling Crummy? Your Sandwich Might Be to Blame

Some health experts now link gluten sensitivity—not just celiac disease—to mood swings, anxiety, and brain fog via inflammation and gut disruption. But opinions differ: while Dr. Pete Sulack warns your daily toast could be silently wrecking your mental health, dietitian Kim Kulp counters that unless you have sensitivity, whole-grain gluten isn’t the villain.

Study: Blood Thinners May Not Raise Brain Bleed Risk in Seniors After Falls
