Breitbart: Massachusetts GOP Demands 'Transparency' from State over '$1 Billion in Secret Migrant Crisis Spending'
The Massachusetts Republican Party has requested transparency from Gov. Maura Healey regarding nearly $1 billion spent on migrant housing, claiming the administration is withholding details. They highlight major expenses, including $16.3 million for a hotel rental, while seeking information on public safety incidents.
Efforts for accountability have been blocked by the Democratic supermajority in the legislature, which disregarded proposals for competitive bidding on shelter services. The state anticipates an additional $1.8 billion in spending due to the ongoing migrant crisis.

Breitbart: Houthi-Bombed Greek Tanker Larger than Exxon Valdez Disaster Ship Spilling Oil into the Red Sea
The Pentagon warned that the Greek-flagged oil tanker Sounion, previously attacked by Houthi terrorists, appears to be leaking oil, raising concerns about a potential environmental disaster in the Red Sea. The situation is compounded by the Houthis' threats against assistance efforts.

Breitbart: Breitbart Business Digest: Americans Support Tariffs, Drilling, and Deporting Illegals
Recent polling indicates significant American support for 'America First' policies, with strong backing for deportation of illegal immigrants, especially among middle-class voters. Tariffs also receive broad support, notably from Republicans and conservatives, reflecting a shift in party stances.
Additionally, there is increasing approval for easing regulations on drilling in federal lands across various income groups. This suggests a coalition favoring economic nationalist policies, which may benefit Trump and the Republican Party in future elections.

The Mirror: 'Leaked' government plans reveal exact locations smoking is set to be banned
Leaked documents suggest the UK government intends to extend the smoking ban to outdoor areas such as pub gardens and sports grounds, part of a broader Tobacco and Vapes Bill. The move aims to mitigate second-hand smoke risks but faces criticism over potential economic impacts.
Opponents argue the plan wasn't part of Labour's manifesto, which mainly focused on raising the smoking age. The government contends that the health benefits justify the regulations, emphasizing the need to protect children and non-smokers from second-hand smoke.
