Breitbart: Jamie Raskin: GOP Is the 'Corruption Party,' Musk Is 'the Agent'
Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) accused the Republican Party of being the "corruption party," asserting that Elon Musk is a key figure in this corruption. He criticized the party for dismissing inspectors general, undermining anti-corruption efforts, and promoting a unitary executive theory that allows political control over independent agencies.
Raskin argued that the current administration prioritizes corruption and that Musk's actions in Washington are not combating corruption but rather facilitating it. He emphasized that those who believe in the rule of law within the Republican Party are being marginalized.
GB News: Ghanaian tourist granted right to live in Britain after marrying man with 'settled status' rules despite NOT attending her own 'proxy wedding'
Francisca Boateng, a Ghanaian tourist, has been granted UK residency after her proxy marriage to German citizen Fatao Sualihu was deemed valid by a judge, despite neither attending the ceremony. The marriage lasted long enough to qualify her for residency under the EU settlement scheme.
The Home Office challenged the legitimacy of the proxy marriage, citing concerns over evidence and documentation. Critics argue this ruling highlights flaws in the immigration tribunal system and calls for reforms to immigration and human rights laws.
Breitbart: Breitbart Business Digest: Trump Moves to Rein in the Rogue CFPB
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has been criticized for its unchecked power and lack of accountability since its creation in 2010. Under former director Rohit Chopra, the agency operated with intimidation tactics and vague regulations, leading to a chaotic regulatory environment. With Jonathan McKernan appointed as the new director, a shift toward clearer regulations and a more market-friendly approach is anticipated.
The CFPB's funding mechanism and enforcement practices are under scrutiny, with potential moves to limit its power and restore oversight. McKernan's leadership could signal a departure from the agency's previous progressive agenda, focusing instead on fair enforcement and market efficiency. The future of the CFPB may hinge on upcoming legal challenges and political maneuvers.

Le Monde: Why the Trump storm is a boon for Beijing
China Labor Watch, an NGO focused on labor exploitation in China, faces significant challenges due to a loss of U.S. federal funding, which constituted 90% of its budget. Founded by activist Li Qiang, the organization has documented abuses against workers but now risks halting its investigations.
Li Qiang expressed concern that the funding cut is a major advantage for Beijing, as it undermines efforts to expose human rights violations against groups like Uyghurs and Tibetans. The situation reflects broader issues facing NGOs reliant on American support.
Breitbart: Eaton Fire, Too, Saw Hydrants Run Dry as Pressure Dropped in High Demand
The Eaton Fire in Altadena and Pasadena, California, caused significant water pressure issues, impacting firefighting efforts. Despite having a large reservoir, the water system failed to maintain necessary pressure due to high demand from both firefighters and residents.
Officials are currently flushing the contaminated water system, and residents are advised not to drink the water. Some locals suggest that neighborhoods should have independent water storage tanks for emergencies to avoid reliance on the centralized system.
