Bosch to cut 1,100 jobs at its plant in southern Germany

🔥Five Planned Parenthood facilities are being forced to close in Northern California as a result of President Donald Trump’s “One Big, Beautiful Bill,” which prevents state Medicaid programs from funding groups that also provide abortion services.

Federal funding has, until now, continued to flow to Planned Parenthood, despite the Hyde Amendment’s ban on federal funding of abortion, because of the other services Planned Parenthood says that is provides.

Trump’s “BBB” is a major blow to Planned Parenthood, one of the foremost providers of abortions. Gov. Newsom opposed the bill — after previously advertising California in other states as a haven for abortion.

Media Matters, a nonprofit group that has played a key role in liberal politics, is struggling to withstand months of legal assaults by President Trump’s allies, offering a glimpse of what might be in store for even well-funded targets of his retribution campaigns.

The organization, which is funded by some of the Democratic Party’s biggest donors, has racked up about $15 million in legal fees over the past 20 months to defend itself against lawsuits by Elon Musk, in addition to investigations by Mr. Trump’s Federal Trade Commission and Republican state attorneys general.

The group has slashed the size of its staff and scrambled to raise more cash from skittish donors, according to documents and interviews with 11 people familiar with the organization’s fight to survive.

That might not be enough. Media Matters tried to settle with Mr. Musk by offering concessions, but the sides were far apart and talks fizzled.
