On The Water: New Limits Set for False Albacore and Atlantic Bonito in Massachusetts Waters
Massachusetts has enacted new regulations for false albacore and Atlantic bonito, introducing a minimum size limit of 16 inches and a five-fish possession limit for recreational and commercial anglers, effective in 2025. These measures aim to protect the species amid rising fishing pressures and a lack of formal stock assessments.

Front Page Magazine: Another Sign That Syria’s al-Sharaa is Not the Moderate He Claims to Be
Ahmed al-Sharaa's appointment of Sheikh Osama Al-Rifa’i as Syria's Grand Mufti raises concerns about his commitment to moderate governance. Al-Rifa’i's past anti-Kurdish fatwa and ties to Turkey suggest a disregard for Syria's ethnic and religious diversity, particularly threatening minorities.
To prove his moderation, al-Sharaa must take concrete actions to protect minority groups, including allowing self-defense for Alawites and Druze, reassuring Kurds about their autonomy, and reconsidering Al-Rifa’i's appointment. These steps are essential to build trust among Syria's diverse communities.

The government, led by President Sadyr Japarov, argues that the ban is necessary to combat rising radicalization and ensure individuals are identifiable in public. This move reflects ongoing tensions between secular governance and the resurgence of Islamism in Central Asia.

Human Events: JACK POSOBIEC: Trump’s tariffs were the Art of the Deal in action, and China failed the test
Jack Posobiec praised President Trump's recent tariff strategy, which includes a 90-day pause on tariffs for all countries except China, where tariffs will increase to 125%. He claimed this move is a demonstration of Trump's negotiating prowess and criticized those who panicked over the initial announcement.
Posobiec argued that the tariffs serve as a test for China, which he believes has failed, and emphasized that global markets are responding positively, with significant gains in the Dow and NASDAQ. He condemned China's trade practices and highlighted the historical context of globalization, suggesting that the West's approach has empowered the Chinese Communist Party.

Front Page Magazine: Defending Disney
Jeff Wang's op-ed in The Guardian reflects on Disney's influence in shaping diverse heroes through stories like Mulan. However, he warns that this creative vision is under threat from political pressures, particularly from Trump and FCC Chair Brendan Carr, who criticize Disney's diversity initiatives.
Wang argues that these initiatives, aimed at promoting inclusion, are vital for representation, despite criticisms that they may lead to ideological conformity and discrimination against certain groups. He contends that the backlash against Disney's recent projects, like the Snow White remake, stems from a misunderstanding of its intentions to promote diversity and empowerment.
