Former Maga Top: "Trump betrayed us all"

Former Republican congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene is starting a new political movement with other big Maga profiles, she writes in a post on X.

In the photo in the post, Greene is sitting together with conservative media profile Tucker Carlson, former US counterterrorism chief Joe Kent, Republican Thomas Massie and conservative journalist, also Greene's husband, Brian Glenn.

Several of the profiles have previously talked about the possibility of starting a third party, writes The Independent. However, the details of the new movement are unknown.

Food prices
Experts: Heat could lead to higher food prices this autumn

The extreme heat of the summer in Europe risks raising Swedish food prices this autumn, experts tell SvD.

Grain harvests in particular are being affected by the heat and fires. At the same time, the Iran war and the closed Strait of Hormuz are driving up oil prices and causing a shortage of artificial fertilizers.

- Overall, it will most likely mean higher costs for farmers and food producers. This could in turn lead to certain foods becoming more expensive for consumers this autumn, says Daniel Emilson, press manager for the Swedish Food Companies.

Last month, Lantmännen stated that the cold winter that has passed is expected to result in a 20 percent smaller grain harvest than last year in Sweden, which could also drive up prices, according to P4 Uppland.
