Don't buy things to feel better — put emotion into creating stability. If unsure about a monetary decision, stop and think. Ask yourself what would bring you peace and not just profits. There might be well-meaning advice from a friend or someone whom you care about, so don't turn your back on them. Sometimes, emotional clarity also clears the financial murk. Aquarius Health Horoscope Today Lungs, shoulders, and nervous systems — all must be taken care of by Aquarius. Restlessness, anxiety, and low energy might be caused by overthinking. If you don't feel like exercising or meditating, just start with five minutes. Just show up, even if it's a little thing, for your body. Stretch out your arms, breathe deeply, and drink water regularly. Light food and short walks will also do the trick. Just don't expect to do it all at once — but do not drop yourself today.

Watch: US official says Trump saved 258 million lives in first 100 days; JD Vance's expression goes viral
JD Vance's expression at the Cabinet meeting is going viral. As all cabinet members on Wednesday were heaping praises on President Donald Trump as his administration crossed the first landmark of the first 100 days, Attorney General Pam Bondi went overboard as she said Trump has saved 258 million lives, which is equivalent to 75 per cent of the US population . The claim stunned many social media users but they pointed out that vice president JD Vance , who was sitting beside her, was equally bewildered by her claim. "President, you first 100 days has far exceeded that of ANY other presidency in this country. Ever. Ever. Never seen anything like it. Thank you," Pam Bondi said. — dougblandry (@dougblandry) "34,000 kilos of fentanyl, since you've been - your last 100 days. Which saved, are you ready for this media? 258 million lives," Bondi said. Kids are dying every day because they're taking this junk, laced with something else they don't know what they're taking. They think they're buying a Tylenol or an Adderall and a Xanax and it's laced with fentanyl and they're dropping dead and no longer because of you, what you've done," Pam Bondi said. On Tuesday, she wrote on X that the fetanyl seizures had seven over 119 million lives. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Dahouk: AI guru Andrew Ng recommends: Read These 5 Books And Turn Your Life Aroun... Blinkist: Andrew Ng's Reading List Undo Pam Bondi provided a formula to The Daily Beast for how she arrived at the figure. "3,400,000 grams of fentanyl multiplied by the 'current purity level' of .1518, divided by .002, the lethal amount per gram. The result: 258,060,000," the report said. But JD Vance's facial expression said it all, social media users noted, as JD Vance was seen doing mental math when Pam Bondi announced the figure. "The US population is 340.1 million people, ~33 million are under 10. So he save the lives of ~84% of those of us over 10 years old," one wrote. One X user pointed out that Pam Bondi did not say American lives and by the volume of the fentanyl, she was correct. "Vance realizing some MAGA math happened somewhere," one person commented. "You can see whats left of JD's logical brain fighting for its life," a second person wrote.

US Navy Capable of Defending Itself against Houthi Attacks: Col. Dahouk
In response to the US airstrikes against the Houthis in Yemen, the rebel group announced on Sunday it targeted the USS Harry S Truman aircraft carrier and its accompanying warships in the northern Red Sea with 18 ballistic and cruise missiles, as well as drones, reported Euro News. The Houthi military spokesperson said that the attack was a response to more than 47 US strikes against the areas they control in Yemen, including the capital Sanaa and the province of Saada. On Saturday, the US President, Donald Trump, ordered a 'decisive and powerful military action' against the Houthis to stop their attacks against US ships, aircraft and drones. Trump said that the US will use 'overwhelming lethal force' to achieve its objectives. He warned the Houthis that if they do not stop their attacks 'hell will rain down upon you like nothing you have never seen before.' Houthi Attack on USS Truman Commenting on the recent Houthi attack, the Former Senior Military Advisor to US Department of State, Colonel (Ret.) Abbas Dahouk, said that this is not the first time that the Houthis attack US assets. 'This is not the first time that the Houthis fire cruise missiles, antiship missiles or drones against US naval ships, and I think this is perhaps a first retaliation against the recent attacks against them,' he told Al-Jazeera. Col. Dahouk added that the US has the capabilities to defend itself against these attacks. 'The US navy is capable to defend itself and has done so for the last year. So, I think it is part of the combat operation,' he said. Reasons Behind US Strikes The US airstrikes against the Houthis come at a time when the group had actually stopped their attacks in the Red Sea since Trump came to power. With regards to this, Col. Dahouk thinks there are two dimensions to the timing of the US strikes. 'One of them is the threat is still there, the threat to the global commercial lanes through the Red Sea is still there, and the Houthis they control and they have the will to decide what to strike,' he noted. 'As the Secretary of State said, the US cannot allow Houthis to decide who is allowed to transit through the Strait and the Red Sea and which cannot. So, the Trump administration wants to end that once and for all,' Col. Dahouk explained. Iran's Last Card The Former Military Advisor said that the other reason is related to Iran and the nuclear program negotiations. 'And the other thing is also perhaps to deny Iran the last card, like to use President Trump terms, to use the Houthis as a card for future negotiations on the nuclear engagement,' he said. 'So, I think this has two dimensions; one is to put a stop to the Houthis, whether to destroy their military capabilities or also to neutralize their political will to use them against the shipping lanes, and also to deny Iran any reach to Houthis to disrupt any future negotiations,' Col. Dahouk added. US Response to Houthi Retaliation The Houthis said that any escalation will be met with escalation and threatened to resume attacks on US and Israeli-linked ships in the Red Sea, raising speculations about a full-scale US engagement in Yemen. In the light of this, Col. Dahouk said: 'We already saw a much more lethal force brought to Yemen than we saw since October 7 last year under the previous administration. So, you see more commitment and a drive not only to go against the drone capabilities or missile capabilities. They are hitting their leadership at the highest level.' However, Col. Dahouk ruled out the possibility of a full-scale US engagement. 'But I do not think the Trump administration is willing to commit land forces or boots on the ground. Perhaps they might assist the Yemeni government, the Yemeni forces on the ground to provide complementary efforts to the air campaign on the ground against the Houthis. That is a possibility,' he said. Short link : Post Views: 79

US Strikes Aim to Destroy Houthis' Military Capabilities: Col. Dahouk
The US President, Donald Trump, on Saturday ordered a 'decisive and powerful' military action against the Houthis in Yemen. The US strikes have so far killed at least 31 people and injured 101 others, Reuters reported citing the Houthi-run health ministry. US Strikes against Houthis Trump cited the Houthi attacks against US ships, aircraft and drones as the main drive behind the military campaign. In a post on his Truth Social platform, the US President told the Houthis that their 'time is up,' warning them that if they do not stop their attacks 'hell will rain down upon you like nothing you have never seen before.' The US President noted that Washington will not tolerate the Houthi attacks on American vessels, saying that the US will use 'overwhelming lethal force' to achieve its objectives. This includes aerial strikes on the Houthis' bases, leaders and missile defenses, he added. More power against Houthis The Former Senior Military Advisor to US Department of State, Colonel (Ret.) Abbas Dahouk, said that it is clear that the Houthis are in big trouble under the Trump administration. Speaking to Al-Arabiya, Col. Dahouk said that Trump's designation of the Houthis as a terrorist organization means that 'he has given more authority to US military to use more force against the Houthis.' Col. Dahouk noted that the current mission could be completely different from those launched by the former US President, Joe Biden. 'During Biden's term, the mission aimed to undermine the Houthis' capabilities, not to defeat them. Now, it is completely different,' he said. 'Trump is ordering overwhelming power to destroy the Houthis as a terrorist organization and to destroy any military capabilities they could use against the shipping lines in the Red Sea or military assets in the region,' Dahouk added. Trump Operation vs. Biden Operations Col. Dahouk explained the difference between this military operation and those launched during Biden's term. 'The difference here is more power against the Houthis and the final outcome could be destroying whatever the US can, not only to deny the Houthis the ability to use their capabilities against the US interests, but also to prevent Iran from supporting the Houthi attacks in the Red Sea,' he said. 'The mission has changed to destroying all the military capabilities of the Houthis, and the centers of command and control could be part of the targets. So, the mission has become clearer under the Trump administration,' he added. Significant Damage Moreover, Col. Dahouk expected that the Houthis will incur substantial damage as a result of the US aerial strikes. 'It is clear that the Houthis will suffer significant damage that makes it hard for them to regroup or launch any attacks against maritime shipping lines or US assets,' he said. He also expected that the strikes will continue in the coming days, with more damage assessments to identify more targets or strike the same locations. Target Selection Commenting on the mechanism of target selection, Col. Dahouk said that 'this is an operational decision made by the command on the ground and the US Carrier which has a target bank and a priority list regarding these targets.' He added: 'Based on these initial strikes, there will be reassessments and changes. But as a pure military decision, there could be a political dimension. But it is up to the military commanders on the ground when it comes to target selection.' Scale of Strikes In terms of the operation's scale and duration, Col. Dahouk said: 'The mission has changed completely. Under Biden, there was a fear of escalation and the missions were given to military forces to weaken the Houthis' capabilities in the first place. However, this mission is of a different nature and aims to destroy the military capabilities, i.e. destroying more military assets and military targets.' Col. Dahouk noted that the Houthis' designation as a terrorist organization 'has given the US military forces, and the US President, more authority to launch military operations without consulting with the Congress.' According to Col. Dahouk, the operation 'could last either until the military commanders on the ground decide that the Houthis' capabilities are somewhat destroyed or until the political objective is achieved, which is not only related to the Houthis and shipping lines, but is related to communicating with Iran about its nuclear program.' 'So, there is a mix of military and political decisions. When we combine them, there will be an assessment regarding the continuation of the military strikes against the Houthis or ending them,' Col. Dahouk said. Short link : Post Views: 9
