Electric Trucks Spark Debate About Australian Road Restrictions
Major car manufacturers showcased battery-powered trucks with the latest technology at the Brisbane Truck Show. However, Australia's weight and size restrictions prevent the vehicles from entering the market. The heavy-duty vehicles will cut carbon emissions, pollution and noise, while reducing fuel costs, but until Australia changes its legislation, Australians may have to wait another 20 years for electric trucks designed for their market .

Jimmy Butler Scores 27, Miami Beats Boston 111–105 to Take 2–0 Lead in East Finals
The Miami Heat won Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals against the Boston Celtics with a score of 111-105, leaving them 2-0 in the series. Jimmy Butler scored 27 points and made nine points during a 23-9 run in the fourth quarter, which led Miami from a nine-point deficit to a 105-100 lead. They were fueled by an emotional spark after Butler was seen talking and mostly arguing with Boston's Grant Williams, and managed to hold on to the lead until the end of the game, despite a strong effort from Boston's Jayson Tatum, who had 34 points, 13 rebounds, and eight assists.

The Epoch Times: Alaska Passes Bill to Limit Govt From Shutting Down Gun Stores During Emergencies
Alaska Passes Bill to Limit Govt From Shutting Down Gun Stores During Emergencies
Alaska’s Republican-led Legislature has passed a bill prohibiting the authorities from singling out firearm and ammunition retailers when they start shutting down businesses during a declared emergency. House Bill 61, heading to the desk of Gov. Mike Dunleavy, states that firearm businesses cannot be forced to close, shorten their business hours, limit their sales, or hand over merchandise during a declared state of emergency unless the government equally does that to all other businesses. This bill is important as it aligns Alaska with a 2022 decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit, and it is supported by the National Rifle Association.

Anchorage was also placed under similar restrictions in the spring of 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. The city’s then-Democrat mayor, Ethan Berkowitz, ordered gun stores to be closed while allowing businesses his administration had deemed critical, including marijuana and liquor shops, to stay open. According to Wielechowski, firearm, and ammunition stores are just as important as, if not more important than, grocery stores for Alaskans relying on hunting as a way of life and sustenance. The Alaska Gun Rights group opposed the bill, arguing that governments shouldn’t be granted power to shut down any business in the first place.
