The Democratic National Committee (DNC) is facing significant backlash after laying off hundreds of employees post-election, with the staff union launching a GoFundMe campaign that has only raised $18,000 of its $25,000 goal.

Despite raising over $1 billion for the campaign, the DNC's decision to downsize from 680 to fewer than 200 staff members has drawn criticism, especially for the lack of severance for those let go. The DNC claims it is adhering to union agreements while expressing sympathy for affected employees.

Police bosses instructed officers to record non-crime hate incidents even if victims did not think it is one
Lancashire police were directed to record non-crime hate incidents based on perceptions of prejudice, even if victims did not believe one occurred.

Calls for the abolition of non-crime hate incidents have intensified, emphasizing the need for police to focus on actual criminal offenses.
