Gov. Ron DeSantis Declares State of Emergency to Help Floridians Stuck in Israel

Gov.

Ron DeSantis , Declares State of Emergency , to Help Floridians Stuck in Israel.

The Florida governor signed the executive order on Oct.

12 as war in the Middle East rages on.

Unlike the governments of other countries, the Biden administration has failed to launch any form of rescue or evacuation operations for Americans, including Floridians, stranded in the region, and has failed to provide information requested by the State of Florida.

, Gov.

Ron DeSantis, via statement.

The order allows the Florida Division of Emergency Management (FDEM) to "carry out logistical, rescue and evacuation operations to keep its residents safe.".

Most major airlines have suspended flights to and from Israel at this time.

There are more than 20,000 Americans, including Floridians, in Israel who wish to return home but are unable to do so, Jason Mahon, Gov.

DeSantis' director of communications, via statement.

The state is currently "working on transporting supplies" and "arranging for chartered flights home for Floridians currently in Israel," an official said.

.

Florida's National Guard and State Guard have also been activated to help "as needed," 'New York Post' reports.

Earlier this week, DeSantis proposed new sanctions on Iran, which stands with Hamas.

It all does go back to Iran and the Biden administration, unfortunately, has let up on Iran.

That’s part of the reason they’ve had a lot of money, we all need to come together as states and the federal government really turn the screws on Iran.

, Gov.

Ron DeSantis, via statement.

Credit Card Delinquencies Are on the Rise [Video]

Credit Card Delinquencies Are on the Rise

Credit Card Delinquencies , Are on the Rise. New York Federal Reserve data that was published on May 15 shows that credit card delinquencies kept rising from January to March, Fox Business reports. . In Q1 2024, delinquencies reached 8.9% at an annualized rate. America hasn't seen this high of a percentage of serious credit card delinquencies since 2012, Fox News reports. . In the first quarter of 2024, credit card and auto loan transition rates into serious delinquency continued to rise across all age groups, Joelle Scally, regional economic principal within the Household and Public Policy Research Division at the New York Fed, via Fox Business. An increasing number of borrowers missed credit card payments, revealing worsening financial distress among some households, Joelle Scally, regional economic principal within the Household and Public Policy Research Division at the New York Fed, via Fox Business. Researchers aren't sure why delinquencies are so high since the unemployment rate is low, but they have a few theories. One of those theories is that consumers drained savings throughout the pandemic but continue to spend at high levels. Another theory is that some Americans switched to jobs with lower salaries. Additionally, credit card eligibility may have been expanded for many whose student debt wasn't being reported to credit bureaus amid the pandemic. These are all kinds of complex issues. We don't exactly know what's behind the increase of these delinquency rates. But it's definitely something that we're tracking, New York Fed researchers, via Fox Business. The average annual percentage rate for credit cards hit a record of 20.72% recently.

However, at the time, the agency acknowledged that the claim is based on limited evidence. In 2018, Danone North America, the U.S. side of the French firm, sought FDA clearance for making the "qualified health claim.". Qualified health claims lack full scientific support but are allowed as long as manufacturers include a disclaimer to avoid misleading the public. Similar qualified health claims have been allowed for dietary supplements since 2000 and for food products since 2002. . In March of 2024, the FDA granted Danone's request. . According to the FDA, there is some evidence that eating at least 2 cups of yogurt a week could reduce the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes, which impacts about 36 million Americans. Critics of the FDA's decision have countered that the claim is not based on randomized control trials which could prove or disprove yogurt's purported health benefits.

Seven months into the conflict triggered by Hamas's October 7 attack, Israeli forces are engaged in fierce battles with Palestinian militants in Gaza, focusing on Rafah near the Egyptian border and new flashpoints in northern and central areas. An incident of friendly fire in Jabalia resulted in the deaths of five Israeli soldiers and injuries to seven others. Despite heavy fighting and Israeli airstrikes across Gaza, Prime Minister Netanyahu has ordered an offensive in Rafah, claiming mass evacuations have prevented a humanitarian catastrophe. He emphasised that planning for Gaza's future governance is premature until Hamas is defeated. Defense Minister Yoav Gallant countered by calling for Palestinian entities, supported by international actors, to govern Gaza post-conflict. Meanwhile, Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh declared that Hamas and other Palestinian factions would determine Gaza's governance, reiterating demands for a permanent ceasefire and the lifting of the siege. The conflict has resulted in significant casualties, with 278 Israeli troops and at least 35,233 Palestinians killed, and has led to severe shortages of essential supplies in Gaza. #IDFSoldiersKilled #IsraeliSoldiersKilled #Israel #Hamas #Gaza #IDF #FriendlyFire #MiddleEastConflict #Rafah #Jabalia #WarCasualties #HumanitarianCrisis ~HT.178~PR.152~ED.102~GR.121~
