GB News: DVSA driving test changes come into effect today offering 'lifeline' to millions of motorists
The DVSA has implemented a new policy requiring learner drivers to provide 10 full working days' notice for changing or canceling driving tests, up from the previous three days. This change aims to reduce fraudulent practices and address the backlog of driving test slots, which have seen waiting times of up to 24 weeks.

The DVSA hopes this will lead to more efficient reallocation of canceled slots. Refunds will still be available for last-minute cancellations due to special circumstances.

Colorado Democrats are advancing legislation that mandates health insurance coverage for gender transition procedures for minors and allows courts to consider non-affirmation of a child's gender identity as child abuse, potentially stripping custody from parents. The bills have faced criticism for undermining parental rights and prioritizing ideology over medical considerations.
Additionally, new Senate bills aim to expand taxpayer-funded abortions and solidify Colorado's status as a sanctuary for such procedures. Critics argue this legislation could lead to increased costs for residents and ethical concerns regarding minors' access to irreversible medical interventions.

Despite being banned in the U.S. for national security risks, these companies continue to operate and profit, raising concerns about their accountability in the international community.

Fox News: DAVID MARCUS: Don't be fooled. It's time to take Trump literally on tariffs
President Trump’s approach to tariffs indicates he may be serious about implementing them, contrary to past expectations of him bluffing. His supporters view these tariffs as a necessary step to revitalize communities affected by free trade, while critics remain skeptical.
Despite the market's volatility and expectations of a potential retreat from Trump, his base continues to back him, seeing tariffs as a long-overdue response to economic challenges. The likelihood of Trump backing down appears low, as he has a history of opposing globalism and prioritizing American interests.
