Fox News: Rep. MTG to introduce bill requiring proof of citizenship to vote, new census that only counts citizens
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene plans to introduce legislation requiring a new census that counts only U.S. citizens, affecting House seat allocations. She argues this is vital for national security and claims Democrats favor non-citizen voting.
The proposal, which has Donald Trump's support, could alter the political landscape by redistributing House seats among states. This change would also influence the Electoral College votes tied to congressional representation.
Fox News: 'Disappointing' DOGE: Federal workforce shrinking by just 1% shows bureaucracy's entrenchment, experts say
The federal workforce has decreased by 1% during President Trump's second term, with over 23,000 positions eliminated. Experts express concern that this reduction is insufficient and highlight the challenges in cutting bureaucratic roles. The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) aims for more significant cuts.
Despite the initial decline, experts warn that meaningful reductions require addressing the federal government's extensive responsibilities. Upcoming retirements and buyouts may further decrease the workforce, but opposition from Democrats and legal challenges complicate these efforts.
The Western Journal: Wisconsin Supreme Court Strikes Down 1849 Abortion Law
The Wisconsin Supreme Court has overturned a 176-year-old abortion ban, ruling it invalid due to modern regulations that effectively replaced it. The decision was influenced by a recent election that shifted the court's balance, with the pivotal vote coming from Justice Janet Protasiewicz.
Republicans lament the ruling, arguing it should have been decided by the legislature, while Democrats celebrate it as a victory for reproductive rights. The outcome highlights the importance of voter turnout in non-presidential elections, as conservative participation was insufficient to prevent the ruling.

The Federalist: Bezos' $56 Million Second Wedding Celebrates A Divorce Culture
Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez recently celebrated their wedding in Venice, with festivities costing around $56 million. Both are on their second marriages, raising concerns about their chances of marital success, given that approximately 67% of second marriages end in divorce.
Research indicates that their history of infidelity, cohabitation before marriage, and social circles of divorced friends may further jeopardize their union. While wealth can offer some protection, it does not guarantee stability, especially in celebrity marriages, which face a higher divorce rate. The societal implications of their marriage could reinforce negative perceptions of divorce and family structures.
The Federalist: The Bar For Assisted Suicide Keeps Getting Lower
Britain's Parliament has voted narrowly to advance the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, which would permit doctors to provide lethal drugs to patients with less than six months to live. This decision raises concerns about the implications for vulnerable individuals and the medical profession's role in healing.
The bill's passage, alongside recent decriminalization of abortion up to birth, signals a shift away from protecting human life. Opposition exists across party lines, with many medical professionals voicing concerns about the potential for economic and social pressures on those seeking assisted suicide. The matter now moves to the House of Lords for further consideration.
The Federalist: Supreme Court’s 'Conservative Majority' Plays By The Left’s Rules
Conservatives celebrate the Supreme Court's recent ruling upholding Tennessee's ban on transgender procedures for minors, viewing it as a victory. However, the decision reflects a broader concern that the Court operates within a leftist legal framework that undermines conservative principles, particularly regarding anti-discrimination laws.
The article argues that the current Court fails to challenge the prevailing anti-discrimination regime, which is seen as detrimental to religious liberty and moral standards. It suggests that the Court's decisions often align with progressive values, complicating the pursuit of cultural and constitutional renewal for conservatives.

Forbes: Why The Stablecoin Hype Won't Reach Americans' Wallets Anytime Soon
Circle's stock has surged nearly six-fold following its public debut, fueled by the hype around stablecoins. Companies like Fiserv and Stripe are entering the stablecoin market, and major retailers are considering their own digital tokens. However, analysts suggest that stablecoins are unlikely to disrupt everyday payments in developed economies due to a lack of consumer incentives.
While stablecoins may enhance cross-border transactions by reducing fees and processing times, their adoption for routine payments remains limited. Current payment methods, like credit cards, offer convenience and rewards that stablecoins cannot match. The market for stablecoins is expected to grow primarily in emerging markets, where demand for U.S. dollars is high.
