Breitbart: Eli Crane: Conservatives Focused on Halting America's 'Managed Decline'
Rep. Eli Crane (R-AZ) claims that House Republicans are working to end the political establishment's “managed decline” of the United States and scored a victory with the passage of the "Secure the Border Act." The legislation includes mandates for national E-Verify, building 900 miles of border wall, and drastically limiting the catch and release process at the US-Mexico border. Crane notes that the move has gained support for standing strong on conservative principles, even if the Democrat-controlled Senate fails to take up their legislation.

The Epoch Times: ANALYSIS: G-7 Leaders Take Strong Stance on China, but Can They Maintain Their Resolve?
The G-7 countries have vowed to confront Beijing head-on and put commercial interests behind core values, after the lesson of Russia's war in Ukraine. China was a primary focus at this year’s summit and the leaders condemned Beijing’s military activity in the East and South China Seas and its human rights violations in Tibet and Xinjiang. The G-7 leaders have publicly stated that China is an economic bully and the international community will not put up with Beijing's "economic coercion" and that "consequences" would follow. The leaders agreed to implement export control and outbound investment measures to safeguard sensitive technologies and build resilient supply chains, de-risking rather than decoupling from China. Experts predict that the G-7 countries will stay united to come out against Beijing, with some experts agreeing the previous discussions and current positions were "unthinkable" two years ago .

The Epoch Times: Aussie State Government Rejects Calls to End No-Grounds Rental Evictions
Western Australia (WA) is set to implement rental reforms that improve the rights for renters and landlords. The state is introducing modernised tenancy laws that will mean rent increases are only allowed once a year to reduce the frequency of price hikes. Additionally, landlords and property managers will be banned from rent bidding, and advertised rent prices must be fixed.
The proposed rental reforms will allow tenants in Western Australia to keep pets in most cases, make certain minor modifications to the property, and release security bonds and end tenancy contracts more easily. The Western Australian government aims to ease the financial burden on families, as low vacancy rates and rising rents have had a detrimental effect. Landlords remain largely untouched by the changes in the law, as they can still terminate a fixed-term tenancy without reason with 30 days' notice.
