- The Security Council had passed two resolutions on the worsening humanitarian situation in Gaza, but none had called for a cease-fire.

Quick Glance: Starbucks Fails Labor Law by Banning Pro-Union Buttons, DC Circuit Ruling
- A divided U.S. appeals court panel ruled that the manager of a Seattle Starbucks store violated federal labor law by instructing a barista not to distribute union buttons during her paid breaks.
- The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit stated that while the manager in 2022 specifically warned the worker not to give buttons to customers, her comments could also discourage other workers from distributing union paraphernalia, even among themselves.
- Starbucks spokeswoman expressed disappointment with the ruling, emphasizing that it involves a single store. On a national level, Starbucks continues to focus on supporting managers to ensure respect for partners' rights to organize, freely associate, and engage in other lawful activities.
- Starbucks and Workers United agreed in February to establish a 'framework' to guide organizing and collective bargaining, potentially resolving many pending legal disputes. The union has accused Starbucks of numerous labor law violations, including interrogating and retaliating against union supporters.

Quick Glance: Criticism Mounts Against Trump’s Bible Endeavor
- Donald Trump could be risking a significant error by promoting the 'God Bless the USA' Bible to his MAGA supporters. There is a chance that some individuals within that group will engage with its content.
- The current scheme might face a similar fate as Trump Steaks and the unattractive gold-colored 'Never Surrender' sneakers he is attempting to sell for $399. Due to its strategic timing - being launched during Holy Week, the most sacred period in the Christian calendar - the Bible project could face severe backlash in the market.
- Should MAGA supporters purchase these Bibles and explore their contents, they may discover various reasons to question their deeply flawed political idol.
- Evangelical voters - along with their pastors, who likely possess detailed knowledge of biblical teachings - have essentially disregarded Jesus' teachings. They highlight Trump's readiness to lead their anti-abortion campaign, even though this is a topic untouched by Jesus.
