Gold could hit nearly $5,000 if Trump undermines Fed, says Goldman Sachs
Goldman Sachs has made the bold prediction that if Donald Trump wins the presidential election and follows through on his stated desire to exert stronger influence over the Federal Reserve, the price of gold could soar close to $5,000 per ounce. The Wall Street bank explained in a recent note to clients that the combination of political uncertainty, potential fiscal expansion, and a weakening of the central bank’s independence could create the perfect environment for investors to rush into safe haven assets. Gold has long been viewed as a hedge against instability and inflation, and any disruption to the credibility of the United States’ monetary policy could magnify demand.

The True Us Versus Them in the United States. Top Story - September 2025.
The Truth and the Point Laid Out Here is the truth that everyone in the United States seems to have forgotten. To my dear Republicans, Democrats are not the only corrupt people in the world of politics. Yes, they are the most corrupt at the moment, but they are certainly not the only ones. Corruption exists on every side of the government. To my dear Democrats… get your shit together and wake up to reality and the evil that is taking place. It is no longer the Democrat party in action and belief. The Democrat party has become the American Communists Party. Very tragic.

Prime Minister of Yemen's Houthi-Run Government Killed in Israeli Strike
**Prime Minister of Yemen's Houthi-Run Government Killed in Israeli Strike** In a shocking turn of events, the Prime Minister of Yemen’s Houthi-run government was killed in an Israeli airstrike, marking a significant escalation in the already volatile political and military landscape of the Middle East. The death of Abdul-Aziz bin Habtour, a high-ranking official in the Houthi-led administration, has shook Yemen, the region, and the international community. The strike, which occurred near the capital city of Sana’a, was reportedly a precision missile attack carried out by Israeli forces. While Israel has neither confirmed nor denied its involvement directly, sources close to the situation suggest that it was part of a broader strategy to target individuals linked to Iran and its allies in Yemen, as Israel has been vocal in its opposition to Iranian influence in the region. The Israeli government has, in recent years, increased its focus on containing Iran's influence, particularly within the Houthi movement, which has long been supported by Tehran.

States Where You Can Still Get a COVID-19 Vaccine at CVS After RFK Jr. Policy Changes
**States where CVS still sells the COVID-19 vaccine after JFK Policy Changes** As of late August 2025, changes in U.S. federal vaccine policy have significantly impacted the way COVID-19 vaccines are distributed, particularly at retail locations like CVS. Under Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the U.S. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued stricter guidelines regarding eligibility for the COVID-19 vaccine, restricting access to individuals over the age of 75 or those with specific high-risk medical conditions. Consequently, CVS has modified its vaccine availability policies to provide varying levels of access based on state regulations. ### Overview of the Policy Changes

Iran: Coming Fall of the Regime. AI-Generated.
Iran: Coming Fall of the Regime By Omid Habibinia The Islamic Republic is entering what may be its final chapter. Following Israeli and American attacks, Iran’s rulers now face their weakest and most isolated moment in over four decades. Public discontent simmers just below the surface, and if it erupts—as it did during the “Woman, Life, Freedom” movement of 2022—the regime will struggle to suppress it.

Cracker Barrel New Logo: A Fresh Look or a Risky Break from Tradition?
When Cracker Barrel quietly revealed its new logo, the internet didn’t stay quiet for long. A brand that has always thrived on nostalgia—wooden rocking chairs, checkerboard tables, and warm biscuits—suddenly thrust itself into a storm of debates. For some, the redesign is a refreshing breath of modern air. For others, it feels like the slow unraveling of a beloved American tradition.
