People like their Starbucks exactly so. You might have seen social media posts of those crazy orders and add-ons that people like. But people aren't able to get what they want how they want it right now. There's a big ingredients shortage along with breakfast foods and cake pops and even cups, lids and straws. Anna Nagurney joins us. She's a University of Massachusetts-Amherst operations management professor. Bryant Simon is a history professor at Temple University and author of “Everything But the Coffee: Learning About America From Starbucks.”
We're just days away from California's grand reopening. Almost everything goes back to normal on June 15th. That means you can rip off your masks just about everywhere you go if you're fully vaccinated. But it might be different when you're at work. Cal OSHA once again changed its mask rules and there's still plenty of confusion. Just because you'll be able to go places without a mask, will you? It might take some time for people to adjust. A murder mystery has been solved 65 years later. It might be the oldest cold case ever to be figured out using DNA and geneaology. A new poll shows millions of Americans feel they don't have anyone they can really trust. More and more people now are falling victim to lottery and sweepstakes scams. Is it that scammers are getting smarter or are people are just more willing to believe? Have you heard of shrinkflation? It's hitting grocery stores. And if you're one of those super picky Starbucks customers ... double pump kid temps extra whip...that kind of a thing....well, sorry. There's a big ingredient shortage.

It’s college graduation season, which means over 4 million seniors will graduate in the next few weeks, flooding the job market with new candidates.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., as the new secretary of Health and Human Services, is the nation’s de facto healthcare czar. He will have influence over numerous highly visible agencies, including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Institutes of Health and the Food and Drug Administration, among others.

Health insurance has become necessary, with large and unpredictable health care costs always looming before each of us. Unfortunately, the majority of people have experienced problems when using their health insurance to pay for their medical care. Health insurance serves as the buffer between patients and the medical care system, using population pooling to mitigate the risk exposure on any one individual.
The recent US-China agreement to temporarily reduce tariffs is a major step for global trade, with tariffs on US goods entering China dropping from 125% to 10% and on Chinese goods entering the US decreasing from 145% to 30% starting May 14. While this has boosted markets and created optimism, key industries like autos and steel remain affected, leaving businesses waiting for clearer long-term trade policies.
With sweeping new tariffs on Chinese-made products set to take effect this summer, Americans are being urged to prepare for price hikes on everyday goods. President Donald Trump's reinstated trade policies are expected to affect a wide swath of consumer imports, including electronics, furniture, appliances, and baby gear. Retail experts are advising shoppers to act before the tariffs hit and prices rise.
