Sunny Hostin on ABC's "The View" accused President Trump and Elon Musk's efforts of fostering a "permanent underclass" to ensure cheaper labor. She argued that the push to eliminate the Department of Education is not about saving money, but about creating a less educated workforce.
Co-host Whoopi Goldberg questioned whether dismantling federal agencies would improve operations, while Hostin emphasized that less education leads to lower labor costs. This, she claims, is the underlying motive behind these actions.
Le Monde: New York prosecutor quits after order to drop mayor's corruption case
Manhattan's acting US attorney, Danielle Sassoon, resigned after being ordered by the Justice Department to drop corruption charges against Mayor Eric Adams.

The Telegraph: Starmer told his defence budget ‘won’t touch the sides’
Military leaders have expressed concerns that the UK government's proposed defence spending plans will be insufficient. Labour's commitment to increase spending to 2.5% of GDP lacks a timeline, raising doubts about the Armed Forces' ability to meet current demands.
Former President Trump has urged NATO allies to allocate 5% of their GDP for defence, emphasizing the need for Europe to shoulder more responsibility regarding Ukraine. Without significant and sustained funding increases, military ambitions may need to be scaled back.
