Liberty Nation News: SCOTUS Takes on Adult Website First Amendment Claims - Liberty Nation News
The US Supreme Court will hear a case regarding a Texas law that restricts access to sexually explicit websites, challenged by the ACLU as a First Amendment violation. The law mandates age verification for users and includes health warnings about pornography's effects.

The Supreme Court’s decision could set a significant precedent regarding the regulation of online adult content.

GB News: Pothole damage: AA president reveals how drivers can claim money back for repairs
Motorists in the UK can claim cash back for pothole damage through a three-step process outlined by AA President Edmund King. He criticized local authorities for their inadequate response to the pothole crisis, which has cost drivers £579 million in repairs last year alone.
To claim, drivers should photograph the pothole, obtain a repair quote, and submit a claim to the relevant highway authority. Compensation is more likely if the pothole was previously reported but not fixed. Despite government pledges for road maintenance funding, the issue persists, with claims rising significantly in recent years.

An 8-year-old boy, Michael Millett, was killed in a dog attack in DeLand, Florida, after stopping to pet two dogs that turned aggressive. He suffered 12 bite wounds and died at the scene. The dogs, a Pit Bull Terrier and another breed, have been taken into custody for euthanasia.
