A federal judge recently blocked DOGE's access to Treasury systems following a lawsuit from Democratic attorneys general, claiming it violated privacy laws. Despite this setback, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has supported Musk's efforts for greater accountability in government spending.

GB News: BBC told to 'adapt or die' as new report issues damning verdict on licence fee
A report from Defund the BBC argues that the current licence fee model is outdated and should be replaced with a subscription-based service similar to Netflix.

The Telegraph: Trump sure knows how to show up the ‘international community’
Donald Trump's recent proposal to temporarily relocate Gaza's residents for redevelopment has sparked significant outrage among the international community. Critics have condemned his actions, particularly after he sanctioned the International Criminal Court (ICC) for issuing a warrant against Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, accusing the U.S. of complicity in alleged war crimes.
In response, 79 countries issued a statement claiming Trump's measures threaten international law and security. However, the article argues that the ICC has undermined the concept of international law itself, suggesting that Trump's actions merely highlight the absurdity of the situation.
