Quick Glance: Elizabeth Warren under Fire for Israel Genocide Comments
- Senator Elizabeth Warren is facing criticism for her recent remarks regarding whether Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, with the ADL condemning her for amplifying 'dangerous rhetoric.'
- During a Q&A session at a Boston-area mosque last week, the senator was asked about a potential UN court ruling on Israel's actions in Gaza.

- Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin stated during a Senate hearing that there is no evidence of genocide being committed by Israel in Gaza, refuting accusations of supporting genocide.

Quick Glance: What is causing bank failures? SVB and Signature Bank failures explained
- Over the next 48 hours, there was a surge in customer withdrawals from the bank, which then attempted to raise emergency capital on the equity markets, which investors rejected.
- It, too, would crumble.
- "SVB's collapse was caused by a liquidity crisis when many of its larger depositors wanted to take money out at the same time." Haine explained.
- "The issue at the heart of this was caused by massive losses on SVB's bond investments in the face of rising US interest rates, and a fire sale of these as its clients – typically technology start-up entrepreneurs and venture capital investors – began pulling money out."
