Fox News: Tim Walz blasted for costing Minnesota taxpayers $430K in legal prep ahead of Hill hearing
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz faces criticism from Republican lawmakers for spending $430,000 in taxpayer money on legal preparation for a congressional hearing regarding "sanctuary city" policies. The funds were paid to the law firm K&L Gates, raising questions about the necessity of hiring outside counsel when state resources were available.

Front Page Magazine: Other Presidents Complained about NATO Paying its Fair Share
President Trump criticized NATO allies for not meeting their defense spending obligations, echoing concerns raised by previous presidents. In 2014, NATO countries agreed to spend 2% of their GDP on defense by 2024, but few met this target.
By June 2025, NATO allies committed to increasing defense spending to 5% of GDP by 2035, a shift attributed in part to Trump's pressure and the geopolitical landscape, including the Russian invasion of Ukraine. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte credited Trump for this significant change in defense spending commitments.
