The Washington Democrat secured a provision in the 2026 Commerce, Justice, Science Appropriations Act directing NOAA to find cheaper ways to remove predatory sea lions, like direct-kill methods, that eat up to 40 percent of peak Chinook at Bonneville Dam.

Critics highlighted dams, habitat loss, and warming waters as bigger salmon threats, sharing videos of playful sea lion pups and questioning the focus on predators amid slow progress on broader fixes.

Key Takeaway

Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez called sea lions 'Corolla-sized vermin' while celebrating a new law to speed up their removal from the Columbia River. The post touched off sharp divides over saving endangered salmon.

The versatile Austrian, who joined on a free from RB Leipzig in 2023, currently earns over €10 million gross per year with his contract running to June 2027. His camp wants well over €15 million to extend long-term, but Bayern is holding firm amid wage discipline after big deals for players like Joshua Kimmich and Serge Gnabry. Fans are divided—some call the demand too high for the 29-year-old and suggest letting him leave for free, while others see it as fair for his standout performances this season. With two years left, Bayern wants him locked in, but talks are paused as the club balances books during its rebuild.

Key Takeaway

Konrad Laimer has been Bayern's rock at right-back, stepping up amid injuries to secure key wins. Now, his push for a new deal has hit a wall over a big pay jump.

The 25-year-old academy product has played just 31 minutes across three recent Premier League games, including zero in Sunday's 2-1 comeback win at Liverpool despite Erling Haaland's late penalty sealing victory. Pep Guardiola calls Foden his 'son' and promises a step-by-step return after identifying team issues, but pundits and fans debate his inconsistency in big matches and England's No. 10 pecking order behind players like Bellingham and Palmer. With City second in the table, six points behind Arsenal, these crunch weeks could define Foden's role at club and international level.

Key Takeaway

Phil Foden, Manchester City's homegrown star, has barely seen the pitch since a halftime hook in January's derby loss to United. Four months from the World Cup, fans worry his bench time could derail his England hopes.

South African DJ and trader Kgopotso Mmutlane posted photos of a supposed yellow gold/steel Land-Dweller with a right-side crown—a version Rolex doesn't make—drawing roasts over its cheap PVD coating and mismatched clasp. Nomad @nomadgeist shared pics of his ex's new guy's gold watch, quickly pegged as a $60 Casio MTP-VD300G lookalike. @captivedreamer, aka Geoff Martin, deleted posts of a black Rolex Explorer after critics noted uneven 'EXPLORER' lettering and a ticking seconds hand, hallmarks of a $400-500 knockoff rather than the real $7,000+ model.

The declaration, adopted on November 22 under President Cyril Ramaphosa's host presidency themed 'Solidarity, Equality, Sustainability,' covers 122 points on African growth, debt relief, climate finance, and connecting 300 million people to electricity by 2030. In a statement by spokesperson Nhlamulo Ndhlela, the opposition MK Party criticized it for favoring rich nations through IMF roles, weak renewable pushes without tech support, and a minerals framework that keeps processing abroad. Ramaphosa hailed it as a commitment to real action, while the text stresses voluntary steps respecting national sovereignty and African priorities like Agenda 2063. As the presidency passes to the U.S., the MK Party calls for African-led finance free of IMF strings.

Key Takeaway

South Africa's MK Party issued a pointed rejection of the G20 Leaders' Declaration from the Johannesburg summit. They see its promises on debt, energy, and minerals as maintaining old dependencies rather than empowering Africa.
