States like Georgia have seen increased voter turnout following the implementation of voter ID laws, contradicting claims that such measures suppress voting. In response to growing public support for voter ID, California lawmakers have introduced a new bill, though its passage is unlikely in the current political climate.

Fox News: CNN reports 'reversing DEI hurts the workplace,' could increase discrimination and harassment lawsuits
CNN highlights concerns that the removal of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs could reverse workplace progress, leading to lower employee retention and increased discrimination lawsuits. Major corporations, including Walmart, are scaling back DEI initiatives amid fears of hiring biases and loss of talent.
Experts warn that dismantling DEI offices may exacerbate existing inequities and result in more harassment and discrimination cases, as training and accountability measures would be diminished. Activists express real concern about the potential negative impact on workplace culture and employee morale.

GB News: Petrol and diesel drivers face filling station havoc as 'volatile' prices rise for fourth month in a row
UK drivers are facing a fourth consecutive monthly rise in fuel prices, with petrol averaging 139p per litre and diesel at 145.7p. This marks a £2.19 increase for a full tank of petrol and over £3 for diesel since October, attributed to rising oil prices and a weaker pound.
Despite the increases, analysts suggest potential price drops ahead, depending on global oil supply. Northern Ireland offers the lowest fuel prices, while supermarket stations provide savings compared to national averages. The UK Government plans to introduce a Fuel Finder tool to help drivers save further.

The Federalist: NJ Unions Defend Teachers Who Struggle To Read Or Write
New Jersey has removed the requirement for teacher candidates to pass basic reading, writing, and math tests, a decision supported by Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy and the New Jersey Education Association. Critics argue this will further deteriorate students' academic abilities and undermine educational standards.
The move reflects a broader trend in several blue states where unions and politicians prioritize their agendas over parental concerns and student outcomes. As dissatisfaction with the education system grows, voters are increasingly seeking alternatives to traditional government schools.
