abortion rights across the country Wednesday, leaving the fate of Roe v. Wade once again at serious risk of being overturned.The Senate bill, which would have codified the 50-year-old court ruling as federal law among other guarantees to access, was doomed to fail.

Vice President Kamala Harris, who was presiding over the vote as Senate president, audibly sighed in disappointment as she announced the motion had failed.

Abortion pill searches skyrocket a week after Roe v. Wade draft ruling President Joe Biden called on the Congress controlled by Democrats to pass legislation to protect abortion services for millions of Americans.

Walmart drops Chaokoh coconut milk after PETA allegations of forced monkey labor

Photo of chaokoh-brand coconut milk (Credit: FOX Edge/FOX Business) BENTONVILLE, Ark. - Walmart announced it has removed Chaokoh coconut milk from its shelves following two undercover investigations by animal rights organization PETA. PETA accused the coconut milk brand of using chained and caged monkeys in its production, leading to 86,000 e-mails to Walmart from PETA supporters requesting the product be pulled from its stores."After hearing from PETA and tens of thousands of concerned shoppers, Walmart has ended its sales of Chaokoh brand coconut milk, for which monkeys are chained, caged, and forced into a lifetime of labor picking coconuts," PETA wrote in a statement. "The company joins over 45,000 stores that have rejected coconut products linked to monkey labor in Thailand."A 2020 audit by a Thailand-based firm said the coconut company didn’t use monkeys in picking coconuts, but PETA said the claim was inaccurate."The coconut trade uses social monkeys as chained-up coconut-picking machines, depriving them of any opportunity to eat, play, or spend time with their families," said PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman.

Another theory suggests that the postponement may be due to fears that he'll be interrogated over his floundering invasion of Ukraine.
