‘Apprenticeship penalty’ on benefits forces young people from poorer UK families to quit Government advisers call for review of rules that cause loss of household income when a child takes up job training Young people from disadvantaged backgrounds are abandoning valuable job training opportunities because of a little-known welfare “apprenticeship penalty” that can leave their families out of pocket by as much as £340 a week. The problem is caused by benefit rules that classify a 16-year-old apprentice as an “independent worker” who no longer requires parental support. As a result, the parents’ child benefit and child and disability elements of universal credit are withdrawn. Continue reading...

Virginia court blocks voter-approved redistricting, appeal coming The appeal is expected to move swiftly — and could ultimately land before the Supreme Court of Virginia, which will have the final say on whether the voter-approved map can take effect.

NEW: A republican judge has blocked the redistricting effort in Virginia, invalidating yesterday's vote. But it's a pause, not a defeat. Read more here: www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

He needs his supporters to be really REALLY angry when they lose. If he can't be a dictator then he wants a civil war.

How are the Iranian #ReligiousZealots any different then you Christian Nationalist #ReligiousZealots Roger? #Kegsbreath is even now calling this #EpsteinFile diversion a new #ReligiousHolyWar or another #Crusade! The entire #GOPFascist party are nothing more than a fascist criminal organization!

Sen. Roger Marshall: "Could you imagine Iran with a nuclear weapon? If Iran had a nuclear weapon, gasoline would be $10 a gallon. So it sounds like this latest breaking news is that Iran is capitulating. It's really hard to negotiate with these irrational, emotional, religious zealots."

Sen. Roger Marshall on the Iranian people: "We're literally starving them. They can't feed themselves very long."

NEWSMAX: If this goes on for weeks, the US military is probably going to have to go into Iran and finish the job. Am I reading that right?

MARSHALL: I think that's right. And previous presidents have had the same issues. Think about Truman's decision on dropping the bomb and D-Day for Eisenhower

SARA EISEN: The president is just expressing what he wants in terms of monetary policy

ELIZABETH WARREN: I'm sorry. Is that real? You think it's not different to say 'here's how I read the numbers' and being the president and employing the DOJ to bring criminal charges against someone?

Elizabeth Warren: "You know what banking system Scott Bessent wants? The one we had right up until 1933 -- just deregulate the banks, and they crash. The alternative is to say we need better regulation over the private credit market."

Lutnick dodges Van Hollen's questions about Epstein: "I am here today to testify about the budget"

LUTNICK: It is outrageous that Canada will not put US spirits on the shelf. It is insulting and disrespectful to America


SHAHEEN: They won't do it because of the insults from this president and comments like yours

CHRIS WRIGHT: In fact, going to use AI technology to find out how we can optimize the operation of that plant. The Hanford cleanup is our number one responsib--

PATTY MURRAY: Is using AI some plan on a futuristic point someplace? That cleanup has to happen now

PATTY MURRAY: Will you guarantee that gas will go back to $3 before the end of the year?

CHRIS WRIGHT: Nobody can offer guarantees about the future. But we're ending Biden's war on hydrocarbons

MURRAY: Now we depend on oil, and here we are

Student dies after shooting herself in front of classmates in high school cafeteria, police say A student died after she shot herself in the cafeteria of an Ohio high school, officials said.

When everything comes out about this terrible situation I believe this will be found to have been the results of a long time bullying of this teen girl. Schools do not do enough to prevent bullying from happening. Many try to cover up cases of bullying not address them.

And not a single reporter will dare call him out on this. If they ever asked him to explain what about his deal was better (or even as good) as the JCPOA, his response would be to attack them because he has no clue. But he'll demand great praise for negotiating the best deal ever.

I've been laughing at this for two minutes. I'm definitely not OK.

The Redistricting Vote: Virginia Is Where Trump’s Scheme Came to Die The commonwealth’s voters just gave Democrats four more House seats—and dealt the Orange One a humiliating defeat in a fight he started.

Republicans gerrymandered many state legislatures in the 2010s while the Democrats largely sat idly by or filed unsuccessful lawsuits.

Now, the party is fully invested in using its blue states' power to fight back. trib.al/emuG7Xt
