The Western Journal: CNN Legal Analyst Agrees with Trump Admin: SCOTUS Did Not Order El Salvadoran Man Returned
CNN legal analyst Paula Reid concurred with Trump administration officials that the Supreme Court did not order the return of deported El Salvadoran citizen Kilmar Abrego Garcia. The Court indicated that a lower court's directive may exceed its authority and emphasized the executive branch's role in foreign affairs.
Despite questions about the deportation, the administration maintains that Abrego Garcia was illegally in the U.S. and has been confirmed as an MS-13 gang member. El Salvador's President Bukele stated he has no plans to return Garcia, while officials assert that foreign policy decisions rest with the executive branch.

The Imaginative Conservative: Why Conservatives Must Support Liberal Education
Conservatives must support liberal education to preserve Western identity, as neglecting this will lead to a loss of significant cultural values. The evolution of conservatism is marked by debates over identity versus ideas, exemplified by figures like Pat Buchanan and Donald Trump, who emphasize different aspects of conservatism.
The importance of education in fostering a shared Western identity is highlighted, with a call to conserve inherited wisdom through liberal education. This cultural preservation is essential for maintaining truths about identity, which are often threatened by ideological thinking and the abandonment of traditional symbols.

Times Of Israel: US military said poised to slash troops in Syria; Israel seeks to limit reduction
The US military plans to reduce its troop presence in Syria by about half, potentially lowering the number from 2,000 to 1,000 within two months. This decision has been communicated to Israeli officials, who are concerned that a withdrawal may embolden Turkey's influence in Syria.
The US troops are primarily engaged in preventing a resurgence of ISIS and have recently bolstered their military presence in the region amid ongoing tensions with Iran. The situation remains fluid, with some skepticism about the scale of the troop reduction given the complexities of US foreign policy in the area.

GB News: 'Pension tweak' could help Britons cut tax by up to 62% under new National Insurance rules
UK workers can reduce tax bills and enhance retirement savings through a little-known pension strategy called salary sacrifice, effective this month. This method allows employees to exchange part of their salary for employer pension contributions, benefiting both parties by reducing tax liabilities.
With rising National Insurance costs and increased wages, salary sacrifice can lead to significant savings. For instance, a business with 20 employees earning £35,000 could save over £5,000 in NI contributions. Workers are encouraged to inquire about such schemes to maximize their pension contributions and tax savings.
