Erica L. Green reports:

Mr. Obama and his family have long been the target of Mr. Trump’s insults. Earlier this year, Mr. Trump posted a racist video on his social media account portraying Mr. Obama and the former first lady Michelle Obama as apes. He deleted the post and blamed it on a staffer, but insisted he had nothing to apologize for. 

In response to an inquiry about Mr. Obama’s remarks, Anna Kelly, a White House spokeswoman, brought up the Obama-era Iran nuclear deal and called him “one of the weakest and worst presidents in history.”

Helene Cooper reports:

The study, published on Wednesday by the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, said Russia has borne the heavier toll, with 1.4 million troops killed or wounded since February 2022, when Russia invaded Ukraine. 

Of that total, 450,000 were killed, a number that is four times greater than U.S. fatalities in all wars combined since World War II.  [emphasis added]

Ukrainian forces have suffered 525,000 to 625,000 casualties, including 125,000 to 150,000 deaths, the study said.

Key Takeaways 

• Coffee consumption has been linked to a number of health benefits, such as reduced risks of dementia, head and neck cancer, and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. 

• According to data from the U.K. Biobank, a higher intake of coffee was associated with lower risks of cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, and liver-related mortality. 

• These associations persisted for both caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee, and for unsweetened and sweetened coffee.
