Breitbart: California: Yes, We Spent Millions Fighting Trump, but to Save Hundreds of Billions
California Attorney General Rob Bonta reported spending over $5 million in the past six months to combat the Trump administration, claiming it saved the state nearly $170 billion. This figure largely stems from a successful lawsuit against a federal funding freeze.
However, experts caution that Bonta's claims may be premature, as key Supreme Court rulings are still pending, and the state's success may vary outside liberal jurisdictions. Governor Gavin Newsom has also allocated $50 million for legal actions against Trump while seeking federal disaster aid.
Fox News: Trump's quest to reduce drug prices is heating up. But will he be able to do it?
President Trump is pressuring pharmaceutical companies to lower drug prices through letters following an executive order aimed at establishing price targets. Experts note that his authority to enforce these changes is limited and may rely on public pressure.
While Trump's initiative seeks to align U.S. drug prices with those in other developed nations, critics argue it amounts to government price controls without Congressional approval. The effectiveness of this approach remains uncertain, as Congress holds more power to enact substantial reforms in drug pricing.
Breitbart: DSA Admits Socialist Zohran Mamdani Gives Them Best Position to 'Seize State Power'
The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) are backing New York City mayoral candidate Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, viewing him as a key figure to advance their agenda. DSA organizer Daniel Goulden stated that they have collaborated closely with Mamdani on his campaign and policies, including initiatives for government-run grocery stores and free gender-affirming care.
Mamdani's radical leftist views, including calls for seizing the means of production, have sparked controversy within the Democratic Party. While some, like New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, acknowledge shared goals, others, including Rep. Adam Smith, assert that Mamdani does not represent the party's stance.

GB News: Motorists demand law changes to make electric car owners pay more to drive on UK roads
Nearly half of British motorists believe electric vehicles (EVs) should no longer be exempt from London's Congestion Charge, with 48% supporting the change. The research indicates a generational divide, as only 6% of drivers over 55 favor paying the charge compared to 35% of younger EV owners.
Transport for London plans to phase out the complete exemption for EVs starting January 2026, introducing reduced charges for electric vehicles. The study suggests that many motorists would consider purchasing EVs if they could benefit from lower congestion fees, indicating a potential shift towards cleaner transportation options.

Breitbart: China Floods Theaters with War Propaganda, Hits Summer Box Office Single-Day Record
China's box office reached a record $972 million in a single day, driven by war propaganda films that portray Japan negatively. The Chinese government has increasingly restricted Hollywood films, promoting domestic productions instead, leading to a surge in local box office revenue.
Films like "Dead to Rights," which depicts the Nanjing Massacre, have seen significant success, with the film grossing $210 million in ten days. The trend suggests a return to war-themed narratives in Chinese cinema, as the government emphasizes patriotic storytelling amid a declining presence of foreign films.

Times Of Israel: In a world breakthrough, Israeli researchers grow first long-term human kidney in lab
Researchers at Sheba Medical Center and Tel Aviv University have successfully grown human kidney organoids from kidney tissue stem cells, achieving stability for 34 weeks. This marks the longest-lasting and purest kidney organoids developed to date, potentially advancing understanding of kidney diseases.
The study, led by Prof. Benjamin Dekel, allows for insights into kidney development and disorders. The ability to cultivate kidney tissue stem cells may pave the way for innovative treatments and regenerative medicine, offering a sustainable source of kidney cells for future applications.
