Fox News: Hawley skeptical of Trump pick Oz: 'I hope he's changed his views'
Sen. Josh Hawley expressed skepticism about Dr. Mehmet Oz's past views on transgender procedures for minors and abortion, questioning whether his positions have aligned with President Trump's policies. Hawley plans to ask Oz about his support for banning gender transition surgeries for minors and federal funding for such procedures during his confirmation process for leading the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
Hawley also inquired if Oz would uphold existing laws preventing federal funds from being used for abortions and support Trump-era policies regarding Medicaid and abortion providers. Oz's confirmation could significantly impact health insurance coverage for millions of Americans.
GB News: 'They've got a damn cheek!' Residents blast council for imposing England's steepest council tax hike
Bradford residents are expressing strong discontent over the Labour-run council's decision to raise council tax by 9.9%, the highest increase in England. This hike, effective April 1, will add approximately £170 to the average Band D household bill, as the council faces rising debts projected to reach £1 billion by 2030.
While some residents argue that the increase is unjustified amid a cost of living crisis, council officials defend the decision as necessary to balance finances and avoid larger borrowing costs in the future. The council plans to implement support for low-income households affected by the rise.

Forbes: Trump Plans To Sign Executive Order Today Dismantling Education Department
President Trump is expected to sign an executive order aimed at dismantling the Department of Education, directing Secretary Linda McMahon to return educational authority to the states. The order will not affect federal funding for students with disabilities or low-income schools but will cut funding for diversity and inclusion programs.
Legal experts suggest that fully eliminating the department will require congressional approval, as its functions are established by federal law. Trump has previously criticized the department, labeling it a "big con job," and has indicated a desire to reduce federal oversight in education.
