Republican Steve Hilton, a former Fox News commentator backed by President Donald Trump, has advanced to the general election in California's governor's race against Democrat Xavier Becerra.

Google Fires A Warning Shot In The AI Subscription Price Wars With $4.99 Plan
Google has reduced the cost of its entry-level AI subscription, Google AI Plus, from $7.99 to $4.99, and doubled the included storage from 200 gigabytes to 400 gigabytes. This move signals the increasing price competition in the United States, which has been intensifying in emerging markets. The move is expected to be rolled out to users over the next few days. Chi-Hua Chien, co-founder and managing partner at consumer-focused venture firm Goodwater Capital, sees this as the next salvo in what he calls the commoditizationization era for AI infrastructure. He predicts that Google’s structural advantages, distribution, and ability to bundle will erode margins for pure-play AI providers over time. The price cut marks the beginning of a pricing war that could reshape the competitive landscape of the AI industry.

JD Vance says Donald Trump 'does not trust anybody' in Iran war in first look at CBS interview
Vice President JD Vance has stated that President Donald Trump does not trust anybody in the Iran war, according to a first look at a CBS Sunday Morning interview.

This comes amid speculation that Trump may have derailed the peace talks due to Vance's reportedly creating a proposal that Iran approved of.

H-1B workers get relief as US court scraps $100,000 fee; employers may accelerate filings
A US Federal judge has ruled as unlawful the $100,000 fees for fresh H-1B petitions, which may prompt employers to file more applications within a narrow time-window and enhance on-site mobility for Indian talent. The decision was made by Judge Leo Sorokin, who stated that the government's charge as a tax requires formal ruling under the Administrative Procedure Act. The fee, introduced by the Trump administration, had led to a near 40% decline in H-IB registrations for FY27. However, experts emphasised that this is not permanent yet. The ruling could lead to stricter processing of B-2 change-to-existence applications for laid off workers.
