  1. A proposed development for a private property on Admirals Road will result in the removal of 33 #GarryOak trees. The #Esquimalt #Climate Organizers have started a petition to prevent this from happening.

    This petition asks the #EsquimaltCouncil to deny the current #development permit for the property and require it to be redesigned to allow for the #preservation of the Garry Oak and #DouglasFir #ecosystem. The removal of these #trees would have a large negative impact on #habitat and hydrology for the community, and will require 66 #replacement trees elsewhere as per Esquimalt’s #TreeProtection bylaw.

    "In times of uncertainty, extreme movements tend to simplify reality. Complex economic and social forces are reduced to a single explanation, and that explanation often takes the form of a #conspiracy. In the early twentieth century, #Jews were portrayed simultaneously as #capitalist #exploiters and #revolutionary #subversives. The contradiction did not matter. What mattered was that the narrative provided a target.

    The same dynamic can be observed today, even if the language has changed. On the far right, traditional #antisemitic tropes have reemerged in the language of “#globalists,” financial #elites, and demographic #replacement. On parts of the #radical #left, #Israel and #Zionism are sometimes framed as the central expression of global #injustice, while Jews are portrayed as beneficiaries of systemic #oppression. The ideological frameworks differ, but the emotional structure is strikingly similar."

    What economic experts think about Trump’s choice of Kevin Warsh for Fed chair

    Economy Updated on Jan 30, 2026 7:29 PM EST — Published on Jan 30, 2026 5:17 PM EST

    President Donald Trump announced Friday that he would nominate Kevin Warsh to be the next chair of the Federal Reserve, an independent agency that has been under pressure from the president to lower interest rates for the last year.

    If confirmed, Warsh would succeed Fed Chair Jerome Powell — a previous Trump nominee who has incurred the president’s ire for not heeding his demands — when Powell’s term expires in May.

    Warsh served on the Fed Board of Governors from 2006 through 2011, where he had an opportunity to help shape the U.S. economy during one of its greatest periods of turmoil in recent history. Now a fellow at the Hoover Institution, a conservative think tank, and a lecturer at the Stanford Graduate School of Business, he also worked as an economic advisor to President George W. Bush.

    Experts appear to view Warsh’s nomination with “cautious relief,” said Mark Gertler, a professor of economics at New York University.

    Here are three things to know about Warsh and how he might influence the Fed as the agency’s new head.

    1. Warsh is a lawyer, not an economist

    Like Powell, Warsh has a J.D., not a Ph.D. in economics. Powell was the first Federal Reserve chair in 30 years to not have a doctorate in economics.

    “The Fed’s culture is Ph.D. economists on top,” said Aaron Klein, a senior fellow in economic studies at the Brookings Institution.

    “I think Powell was pretty deferential to what the professional staff economists’ view was,” he added.

    But Warsh may have a different approach, said Klein, who first met him when Warsh was working at the National Economic Council at the White House. Lawyers view the world through a different cultural lens than macroeconomists do, he said.

    “The question is: Is Kevin going to shake up the culture of the Fed staff? Or is he going to show deference to the Fed’s Ph.D. economists who are accustomed to running the show?” Klein said.

    That could influence his policy decisions, too, Gertler said. Warsh isn’t an economist and doesn’t speak — or necessarily reason — like one, he added.

    “The reason I’m not too worried is Powell was not an economist either, but Powell learned over time. In fact, I think (he) learned pretty well,” Gertler said. “I’m hopeful that the same will be true with Warsh — that is, put him in there with a bunch of economists and they will help sharpen his thinking.”

    2. In many ways, Warsh is a conservative pick

    While not a macroeconomist by education, Warsh has a relatively traditional background for a Fed chair nominee, experts said.

    He’s an academic with experience in the executive branch, as well as on the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, and is knowledgeable about financial markets. During his term as a board member, he was instrumental in helping then-Chair Ben Bernanke navigate the 2008 financial crisis.

    “Warsh is a serious guy with a long track record and a deep experience,” Klein said. “Warsh was the Fed board’s interlocutor with the markets during the financial crisis.”

    Gertler said that knowledge about financial markets is an important characteristic in a Fed chair, because while interest rate setting isn’t easy, it’s “straightforward.” But understanding the markets requires “specialized expertise,” which Gertler said he thinks Warsh has.

    Warsh also has a history of being intellectually conservative, Klein said, with an eye toward reducing government intervention in the markets.

    “He’s not some outsider. This is not like Pete Hegseth coming in, or Kristi Noem, or whatever. This is someone who does have some genuine expertise, and he has been at the Fed,” Gertler said.

    “He has not come across as overtly political in the way some other candidates did,” he added.

    Warsh likely understands the Fed’s culture and is unlikely to “try and tear the place apart,” Gertler noted. That’s giving experts reason for some relief, he said.

  14. The wife of Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance, #Usha #Chilukuri #Vance, and the couple's #children have become the targets of backlash for their Indian ancestry.

    Chilukuri Vance, the daughter of Indian immigrants who grew up in San Diego, as well as RNC speaker #Harmeet #Dhillon -- who is Sikh and Indian
    – are facing anti-Asian hate from far-right figures online.

    Posts appear to have spiked this week following Vance's nomination
    criticizing Vance for marrying someone who is non-white,
    expressing concerns about an influx of Indian immigrants as a result and the so-called #Great #Replacement #conspiracy
    have garnered hundreds of thousands of views according to individual post engagement figures.

    "Stop AAPI Hate", an advocacy group that tracks anti-Asian hate incidents,
    condemned the attacks, arguing that the onslaught of hate has reinforced
    “heightened levels of fear and anxiety Asian Americans and immigrants are currently experiencing across the country leading up to this year’s presidential election.”

  15. #Wegovy®, #Zepbound®, and similar medications continue to gain attention for effectively treating #obesity, and now there is discussion—with research underway—about their potential for improving certain #surgical outcomes.

    The brand-name medications mentioned above belong to a class called GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) agonists. #GLP-1s mimic the actions of the GLP-1 hormone, which is secreted in the gut and sends an “I’m full” signal to the brain after you eat.

    GLP-1 medications aren’t new. @Ozempic® (generic name: #semaglutide) received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat type 2 diabetes in 2017.

    After its weight-loss effects were studied, semaglutide (at a higher dose and sold under the name Wegovy) was approved by the FDA as an anti-obesity medication in 2021, and others have since followed.

    Most recently, the FDA approved Wegovy for patients with #cardiovascular #disease and obesity or overweight after a study showed that those taking the medication had a lower overall risk of major cardiac events, such as heart attack, stroke, or cardiovascular-related death.

    Now, some Yale Medicine surgeons believe, based on their ongoing research, that taking anti-obesity medications before and sometimes after total #joint #replacement and #bariatric #surgery can be beneficial.

    “These medications have been transformative, in terms of expanding the pool of people who can safely undergo joint replacement surgery,” says Daniel Wiznia, MD, a Yale Medicine orthopaedic surgeon and co-director of the Avascular Necrosis Program.

    “These anti-obesity medications are game-changers; they are changing the way people practice medicine.”

    Often, patients who need a total hip or knee replacement must delay surgery until they lose enough weight to meet specific body mass index ( #BMI ) standards.
    This is important in protecting the patient’s health.

    “Weight increases a patient’s risk of postoperative complications, including wound-healing problems, stroke, heart attack, blood clots, and infection,” he says.

    However, having patients take a GLP-1 medication before surgery, as well as improving their diet, has allowed more patients to reach a safe preoperative BMI, Dr. Wiznia says.

    "70 billion terrestrial animals and between 59 and 129 billion aquatic animals are used annually, compared with 192 million #research animals [~670 times less animals]. However, animal #farming is not scrutinized through the lens of the 3Rs and instead remains focused on increasing production to feed the world. The justification for this #ethical discrepancy is unclear."
