Fox News: Kansas audit questions whether county election security policies are strong, detailed enough
Kansas lacks strong and detailed election security policies, according to an audit. The report found that counties were not given enough guidance on overseeing voting. The auditors examined procedures in 15 counties and found that none had comprehensive security policies or guidance. Money and personnel play a role, with more populous counties generally better at following best practices. The auditors did not suggest uniform procedures across the state. The Kansas secretary of state's office disagreed with the auditors' findings and stated that it is providing enough guidance on security issues. However, the office is working on more standardized policies and forms.
American Thinker: Circling vulture: Gavin Newsom travels to red states to 'praise' Joe Biden
California Governor Gavin Newsom, also known as Joe Isuzu, is covertly running for president as he campaigns for Democrats in Republican-led states. He is currently on a West Coast tour, making stops in Oregon, Idaho, Montana, and Utah to fundraise and support President Joe Biden's re-election. Despite claiming he has no interest in running for president, Newsom's actions suggest otherwise, as he raises millions of dollars and receives media attention as a potential replacement for Biden. The White House, aware of Newsom's ambitions, is likely concerned about his growing popularity.

Liberty Nation: Homelessness in Illegal Alien Refuge Los Angeles? It’s a Mystery!
Homelessness in Los Angeles is on the rise, with a 9% increase in the county and a 10% increase in the city. However, the root cause of this issue, which includes the impact of illegal immigration, is not being addressed or acknowledged. Reports and analyses by the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority and McKinsey & Company fail to mention the impact of undocumented individuals on the homelessness crisis. The city's official designation as a sanctuary city for illegal immigrants further exacerbates the problem, as the demographic group contributes significantly to the rising homelessness rates.

National Review: The Unexpected Geopolitical Lessons of Vietnam’s Barbie Ban
In a strange mix of pop culture and geopolitics, Vietnam has banned the film Barbie due to its supposed acquiescence to China's "nine-dash line" in the South China Sea. China's sharp power has influenced Hollywood, leading studios to make edits that align with Beijing's preferences. The Barbie ban highlights the incoherence in the Biden administration's foreign policy, as Vietnam is an important economic and strategic partner against China, despite its repressive regime.

Forbes: Congress Has a Chance to Rein In Runaway Pentagon Spending
Pentagon spending has reached unsustainable levels, with the department's budget on track to reach $1 trillion. An amendment sponsored by Rep. Barbara Lee and Rep. Mark Pocan aims to cut $100 billion from the Pentagon's budget, without reducing spending on military personnel or defense health care. The current prioritization of the Pentagon over other urgent needs is misguided, as it primarily benefits arms contractors and executives, while neglecting accountability and increasing waste.

Forbes: Advanced Primary Care: Upgrading Employee Benefits
Employers and benefits teams are exploring "advanced" primary care as a way to improve health outcomes for patients. This approach prioritizes strong patient-doctor relationships with additional support from data and coordinated care. Advanced primary care provides patients with an established care team that integrates primary care, mental health services, and specialty referrals. However, the current fee-for-service payment scheme hinders the adoption of advanced primary care, as it rewards office visits rather than health outcomes. Shifting to a value-based care model that incentivizes improvement in patients' overall health is necessary for this approach to succeed. Employers can start by engaging health plan partners and primary care providers committed to realigned payment models and early prevention.

Euromaidan Press: Shell firms exploit Ukrainian grain trade, depriving war-torn country of revenue
After Russia's invasion of Ukraine disrupted the grain market, an investigation by OCCRP and RISE Project reveals that Ukraine is investigating hundreds of firms for failing to document grain trading and pay taxes. European companies, including Romanian subsidiaries of major agribusiness traders, imported grain through these firms under investigation. Cheap grain imports from Ukraine have led to protests by Romanian farmers and temporary bans on Ukrainian grain imports by Romania and other countries. Corruption within Ukraine's agricultural sector has also contributed to the problem, with several companies accused of tax evasion and defrauding the state. The investigation highlights the involvement of COFCO International Romania, as well as other major international traders, in importing grain through these dubious Ukrainian companies.
