Fox News: Youngkin to draft sanctuary city ban, making state funding contingent on ICE cooperation
Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin is set to propose a budget that bans sanctuary cities and ensures tax funds are withheld from non-compliant localities. The plan mandates local law enforcement to cooperate with ICE regarding criminal illegal immigrants and notify federal authorities within two days of their release.
Youngkin emphasized the need to curb violence linked to illegal immigration, citing recent crimes in Virginia. Critics have pointed to sanctuary policies in counties like Fairfax and Arlington as contributing factors to these incidents. The governor's initiative aims to reinforce state compliance with federal immigration laws.

This move has sparked discussions about trust and forgiveness among Trump supporters, many of whom remain skeptical of Zuckerberg's intentions.
Despite the donation, critics argue that Zuckerberg's past actions, including his support for mail-in ballots in the 2020 election and allegations of censorship, undermine his credibility.

President Biden criticized Republicans for failing to recognize that improving women's health benefits the entire nation. He emphasized the importance of women's well-being during a White House conference on women's health research, stating that the health of women impacts national prosperity.
Republicans countered by questioning Democrats' commitment to protecting women, particularly in the context of policies allowing transgender women in women's spaces and sports. They argued that these positions undermine the rights of biological women and suggested that Democrats are out of touch with voter concerns.
The Federalist: U.S. Has No Excuse For Failing Kids On Radical Gender Ideology
The U.S. government faces criticism for not protecting children from the irreversible effects of chemical castration, especially following the U.K.'s ban on puberty blockers for minors. An independent review found no evidence that such treatments improve mental health, while they can lead to severe physical and psychological issues.
Despite 26 states taking action against these practices, federal efforts remain lacking, with the Biden administration accused of promoting a transgender agenda. The call for congressional Republicans to act decisively against what is termed "radical gender ideology" is emphasized, urging them to prioritize the protection of children.
Fox News: Ontario mayor reportedly has bank account garnished after fined for refusing to celebrate Pride month
The mayor of Emo, Ontario, Harold McQuaker, had his bank account garnished after refusing to pay a $5,000 fine for discriminating against an LGBTQ group by denying their request to proclaim June as Pride Month. The Human Rights Tribunal ruled against him for making discriminatory remarks during a council meeting.
Despite the ruling, McQuaker labeled the fine as "extortion" and expressed his intention not to comply. Borderland Pride sought court action to enforce the payment, leading to the garnishment of his account. The tribunal's decision stemmed from a 2020 incident involving the group's request for a Pride Month declaration.
GB News: Christmas cancelled: University chiefs 'ban' staff and students from using 'Christmas break’ term in woke inclusivity madness
Newcastle University has stirred controversy by replacing "Christmas break" with "winter break" in a new inclusivity guide aimed at reflecting diverse beliefs. Critics, including free speech advocates, argue this undermines Christian traditions, while the university defends the change as a step toward inclusivity.
This policy aligns with broader trends among UK universities to adopt language guidelines that promote inclusivity. Similar measures at other institutions, such as the University of Greenwich, have included restrictions on terms that may alienate or confuse students from diverse backgrounds.

The Telegraph: Israeli troops can remain in Gaza after war, Hamas concedes in major U-turn
Hamas has reportedly agreed to allow Israeli troops to remain in Gaza, potentially paving the way for a hostage deal. The group has provided a list of hostages, including US citizens, to be released under a ceasefire agreement, raising hopes for a resolution after over a year of conflict.
The main issue has been the terms of a ceasefire, particularly regarding Israeli control over areas of Gaza. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asserts that certain regions should remain under Israeli control post-ceasefire, a condition Hamas previously opposed.

The Telegraph: Earth past due solar superflare that could take down power supplies
Scientists warn that Earth is overdue for a dangerous solar "superflare," which could disrupt satellites and power grids. Recent research indicates that sun-like stars produce such flares approximately once per century, suggesting we are already past due for a significant event.
If a flare akin to the historical Carrington Event occurred today, it could severely impact the British power grid and disrupt communication systems. Experts emphasize the importance of forecasting solar activity to mitigate potential damage, with plans for an early warning satellite set for launch in 2031.
