PJ Media: The Battle Between Florida and Disney Rages On
The Central Florida Tourism Oversight District (CFTOD) has filed a brief asking the court to abstain from or dismiss Disney's federal lawsuit against Florida and Gov. Ron DeSantis.

Breitbart: Right-Wing Populists Set for Large Gains in EU Parliamentary Elections
Populist and conservative-leaning parties are projected to make significant gains in the upcoming European Union parliamentary elections. Support for centrist parties has waned due to dissatisfaction with immigration policies and the green agenda. Eurosceptic and anti-federalist groups, such as the European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR) and the Identity and Democracy (ID) group, are expected to gain seats at the expense of neo-liberal centrists. The rise of these groups is attributed to growing support for parties like the Brothers of Italy and the Alternative for Germany (AfD).

Forbes: The Dangers Of Government Efforts To Monetize Nature
The Biden Administration released draft guidance on accounting for "ecosystem services" in regulatory cost-benefit analysis. This "green accounting" initiative aims to capture environment-related costs and benefits in federal regulations but is misguided and could lead to inefficient public policy decisions. The guidance fails to properly account for the different types of benefits and opportunity costs associated with natural capital.
The Biden Administration's ecosystem services guidance is flawed as it does not consider the differing opportunity costs across different classes of natural capital. The document adds unnecessary paperwork to an already extensive regulatory analysis guidance. Valuing nature in monetary terms is not always appropriate, and the government should focus on quantifying aspects of nature without resorting to monetization. The administration should reconsider its approach and prioritize sound economic analysis in decision-making.
