Nearly 200,000 Americans flooded the National Mall this weekend. Justin Gaethje bloodied a Georgian champion and ripped the lightweight belt away in front of the most powerful address on earth.

Starting this fall, Swedish law will ban mobile phones from schools for the entire academic year. This isn't a pilot program. It isn't a suggestion. The country that gave the world Spotify and Ericsson looked at its classrooms, looked at its children, and admitted the obvious: the screens aren't working. Swedish parliament's own education committee chair put it plainly: reading and writing ability has declined significantly, especially among younger students. The solution? Books. Traditional learning. Less screen time.
Medicaid was not built for able-bodied adults in their 30s and 40s who are simply not working. It was built for people who genuinely cannot take care of themselves; the elderly in nursing homes, children from low-income families, pregnant women, the severely disabled. That was the program. Then Obamacare blew the doors open. The Affordable Care Act created a brand new eligibility category: working-age, able-bodied adults earning up to 138 percent of the federal poverty level. Twenty million people were added to Medicaid under that expansion. The program that once protected the most vulnerable in America was converted, in part, into a no-questions-asked entitlement for people who could, in many cases, work their way out of it.
A federal prosecutor went public this weekend with something California does not want you to read. Bill Essayli, First Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California, announced that the state is actively blocking a federal audit of its voter rolls. The Department of Justice, led by Harmeet Dhillon, has been trying to obtain California's voter registration records for over a year. The legal authority is clear: the National Voter Registration Act, the Help America Vote Act, and the Civil Rights Act of 1960 all grant the federal government the right to review these records. California sued the DOJ back. A district court dismissed the federal case. The DOJ appealed. It now sits before the Ninth Circuit.
