McDonald’s to Slim Combo Prices After Big Mac Sticker Shock (20250820)
Elon Musk is quietly pumping the brakes on his plans to start a political party according to people with knowledge of the matter. We report that Musk's associates canceled a late July call with an outside group that specializes in organizing third party campaigns, and that Musk has told allies he wants to focus on running his companies. He has also said he's reluctant to alienate powerful Republicans by starting a party that could siphon off voters. The Trump administration says immigrants applying for US visas and green cards will now have their social media scrutinized for so-called anti-American ideologies. US citizenship and immigration Services has said its officers should now give significant weight to evidence that an immigrant has, "Any involvement in anti-American or terrorist organizations," when reviewing residency work and visa applications. The latest directive builds on the agency's April announcement that it would screen immigrants' social media for evidence of anti-Semitism. And we are also exclusively reporting that McDonald's is lowering the cost of its combos after Big Mac Meals climbed to $18 in some places. People involved with the discussion say the move follows weeks of talks between McDonald's and restaurant operators, during which the company offered financial support if franchisees agreed to drop prices.
