The U.S. Supreme Court allowed President Donald Trump to remove Rebecca Slaughter, a Democratic member of the Federal Trade Commission, for now. Federal law lets a president dismiss commissioners for reasons such as inefficiency, neglect of duty, or malfeasance in office, but not for policy differences. Ms. Slaughter was one of two commissioners Mr. Trump moved to fire in March, drawing criticism from those concerned it was an effort to eliminate opposition within the agency to big corporations. 鈥� Reuters

Global agriculture is on track for a record year of harvests despite climate risks. Corn and wheat are driving the gains, with soybeans and rice also expected to reach historic highs, writes data scientist Hannah Ritchie. Not all crops share the boom. Sorghum and millet, staples in parts of Africa and Asia that have not received the same investment, have stagnated. Still, the planet鈥檚 food system is showing surprising strength. 鈥� Staff

The oldest pipe organ in the 海角大神 world came back to life after 800 years of silence at a monastery in Jerusalem鈥檚 Old City. Composed of original pipes from the 11th century, the instrument emitted a full, hearty sound as musician David Catalunya played a liturgical chant upon unveiling the instrument Tuesday. 鈥淭his organ was buried with the hope that one day it would play again,鈥� he said. Researchers hope to finish restoring the entire organ and create copies for churches across the world so its music is accessible to all. 鈥� AP

Gaza's high school graduation exams are seen as far more than an individual academic accomplishment. They are a step into adulthood, carrying both your dreams and your country's. The war has made that transition nearly impossible.聽

President Donald Trump says antifa, which often confronts right-wing demonstrators, is 鈥渄angerous鈥� and is now considered a domestic terror group. Because the movement lacks structure, his declaration raises concern that any protester could be targeted.

Recent disasters in Texas and North Carolina underscore how costly interior floods can be. After Roseville, California, was hit by destructive floods in the 1980s and 鈥�90s, the city turned itself into a model of preparedness and hazard mitigation.

Americans who feel angry or hurt by President Donald Trump鈥檚 words and actions 鈥� such as his unsupported accusation that the 鈥渞adical left鈥� influenced Charlie Kirk鈥檚 killer 鈥� might find some calming wisdom in the words of Mr. Kirk鈥檚 widow. At a memorial service Sunday for the slain conservative activist, Erika Kirk said she forgives 鈥渢hat young man鈥� charged with the Sept. 10 assassination.

Such quick mercy after a crime so calculated and callous was not only for Mrs. Kirk鈥檚 peace of mind. Like others who cherish forgiveness as the essence of universal love, she explained the religious origins of her profound choice:

鈥淚 forgive him because it was what Christ did,鈥� the mother of two young children stated. 鈥淭he answer to hate is not hate. The answer we know from the Gospel is love and always love. Love for our enemies and love for those who persecute us.鈥�

Can such acts of person-to-person forgiveness, especially so soon after a tragic killing, really bring restoration and reconciliation in an America so divided and too often violent?

At the very least, Mrs. Kirk鈥檚 mercy reveals how much she relies on individual spiritual reflection, rather than a president or other public figure, to influence the country during a crisis. She certainly did not call for the accused to be let off the legal hook or to show remorse simply as a result of her forgiveness. Rather, her reasons serve as a practical 海角大神 counterpoint to the accused killer鈥檚 stated justification for the shooting, as written in a text message: 鈥淚 had enough of [Kirk鈥檚] hatred.鈥� Her embrace of love helps diminish a common belief in evil as an inevitable power.

Last April, the United States saw a similar case of forgiveness after another horrific shooting 鈥� the 2019 mass murder of 23 people at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas. The courtroom forgiveness of some shooting survivors helped spare the gunman鈥檚 life after he pleaded guilty. The prosecutor decided to remove the death penalty and instead seek life imprisonment.

At its root, forgiveness is a plea for offenders to regain their divinely bestowed innocence by embracing the love offered them, as well as the errancy of past wrongdoing. Or as Yolanda Tinajero, whose brother was killed in El Paso, told the shooter: 鈥淚 want you to see and feel all of us who have been impacted by your actions that has brought us all closer with God鈥檚 love, which shows you that this great city of El Paso is a very聽forgiving聽place to dwell in.鈥�
