Daily Wire: NYC Mayor Eric Adams Backtracks On Offer To House Illegal Immigrants At Mayor’s Mansion
NYC Mayor Eric Adams has rescinded his offer to house illegal immigrants at Gracie Mansion, the mayor’s official residence. Adams cited “legal issues” as the reason for his backtrack. He had previously expressed openness to the idea, saying, “I don’t have a problem if I can put a migrant family in Gracie Mansion.” The move comes as New York City experiences a surge in asylum seekers, with over 74,000 seeking housing since last spring. Adams is also leading a lawsuit against 30 New York counties over their refusal to house illegal immigrants, claiming that the counties are preventing the city from responding to an emergency.

National Review: The Corner: The Real Beneficiary of a Trump Pardon Would Be Biden, Not a GOP Candidate
The issue of a pardon for former President Trump is still up in the air, with Biden being the only one constitutionally capable of pardoning him. However, offering an unsolicited pardon would be of no value to Trump, who maintains his innocence and has not asked for a pardon. A Biden pardon of Trump could be seen as a patriotic act of statesmanship and could improve Biden's chance of being re-elected. It would also reduce the growing Republican pressure for a more aggressive investigation into Biden family influence-peddling. However, it is unlikely to happen as it makes too much sense. In the end, the two people who could most benefit from a pardon are Joe Biden and Donald Trump.

The Epoch Times: Voter Apathy Concerns Loom Over Toronto Election Days Ahead of Vote
Toronto's mayoral election has seen a record number of 102 candidates, but concerns about voter apathy have come into sharp focus, with only 29.7% of Toronto's 1.9 million registered voters casting ballots in the last municipal election, and some experts speculating the high number of candidates may suppress voter engagement further. Despite polls, debates, and around-the-clock news coverage, Lydia Miljan, a political science professor at the University of Windsor, notes that Torontonians may not be engaged in this campaign due to "fatigue out there for politics in general and for this election in particular, given that we just had a municipal race not even a year ago” while Don Fawke says he isn't convinced any contenders are speaking to his interests. However, Pat Cugliari stresses that showing up to the polling booth is a civic duty, even if that means deliberately casting a spoiled ballot in protest.

The Epoch Times: UN Labor Agency Reports 29 Percent of Domestic Workers in Malaysia Face Forced Labor
A survey by the International Labour Organization (ILO) reveals that 29 percent of migrant domestic workers in Malaysia, and 7 percent in Singapore, face forced labour conditions. None of the 1,201 respondents from Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand earned minimum wage, with the ILO citing the lack of labour protections, law enforcement, post-arrival orientation and challenges to the workers being able to change employers. It added employers may lock their workers in or stop them moving to prevent them leaving. About 90 percent of Singapore's migrant domestic workers worked overtime without pay, while in Thailand, excessive overtime, underpayment and document retention were persistent. The ILO called on the countries to ratify UN conventions on domestic workers and forced labour and recognise the skilled work of domestic workers, while offering migration pathways that do not tie workers to an employer .

Foreign Policy: Can ChatGPT Explain Geopolitics?
AI-generated essay argues that the annexation of Crimea by Russia in 2014 paved the way for a larger war in Ukraine by destabilizing the region, emboldening Russian assertiveness, and exposing the weakness of the international community’s response. The essay states that the lack of response to the annexation implied a similar passivity in the event of a larger invasion in Ukraine, encouraging Russian action. The annexation began a series of armed conflicts in eastern Ukraine, resulting in over 14,000 casualties and continuing for nearly a decade without significant Western military interference or international attention.
The essay written by Lauren Grachuk argues that the annexation of Crimea began a series of smaller invasions in eastern Ukraine, all linked to the Ukrainian war, and the lack of international response to the annexation signaled a similar passivity in the event of a larger invasion in Ukraine, lowering the perceived risk of attempting a comparable occupation and encouraging Russian action. Russia continuously engaged in further seizures after the initial invasion of Crimea, beginning with the Crimean invasion assured Russia the international community would not respond with violence to small-scale annexations. The lack of international response eventually convinced Russia the use of salami tactics was no longer necessary, directly paving the way for a larger conflict to begin in Ukraine.
