The Epoch Times: Watchdog CPAs Aim to Add Systems of Control Over State Elections

Flag And Cross: High School Boys Revolt After Trans Addition to Bathroom, Take Direct Action Against Woke State Law: Report
Male high school students in Oregon are protesting against the "Menstrual Dignity Act," which requires female hygiene dispensers in all bathrooms, including boys’ bathrooms.

Many critics have demanded to know what was expected from the law, considering that both male and female students are protesting against it. The left needs to understand that the public is not interested in the woke agenda, but more concerned about issues such as crime and inflation.

Fox News: Russia says Wagner private army, with help from Russian troops, seized Bakhmut
Forces of the Wagner private army, with support from Russian troops, claim to have seized the Ukrainian city of Bakhmut after an eight-month battle. Ukrainian officials have denied the claims, however, and said the fighting for Bakhmut is continuing. Western allies had shipped billions of dollars of weapons and ammunition to Ukraine in anticipation of a spring counteroffensive, but the country is yet to launch an attack against the Russian forces. Analysts have said Bakhmut’s fall would be a blow to Ukraine and give some tactical advantages to Russia but wouldn’t prove decisive to the outcome of the war.

The research had three different key points including interoperability & autonomy, atomic settlement, and near real-time settlement.
