The U.S. House of Representatives has overwhelmingly approved the Epstein Files Transparency Act in a 427–1 vote. The bill directs the Justice Department to release all unclassified documents connected to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell within 30 days. Redactions would be permitted only to protect victims or ongoing investigations, not to shield anyone from embarrassment or political consequences.

The legislation now moves to the Senate, where it will require 60 votes to advance. Senate leaders face bipartisan pressure as well as demands from survivors who rallied at the Capitol, though some lawmakers are seeking revisions, particularly regarding how victims’ identities will be protected. If the Senate passes the measure, it will head to President Trump, who has stated he intends to sign it.

California is committed to zero-emission vehicles, even if the federal mood shifts.

The state’s governor Gavin Newsom said that if the incoming Trump administration cuts the $7,500 EV tax credit, he will propose rebates for eligible residents who buy electric vehicles.

“We’re not turning back on a clean transportation future – we’re going to make it more affordable for people to drive vehicles that don’t pollute,” Newsom said in a statement.

President Joe Biden introduced the tax credit under the Bipartisan Inflation Reduction Act, but the incoming Trump administration is strongly considering cutting the program as part of broader tax reform.

Newsom said he would propose a new version of California’s Clean Vehicle Rebate Program, which phased out in 2023, but funded more than 594,000 vehicles in its lifetime. The proposed rebates could come from the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund, which is funded by polluters under the state’s cap-and-trade program.

It’s incredibly fascinating to watch what’s happening right now in the UK gilt market. I often focus on the US understandably, since it dominates global financial markets but the signals coming from the UK bond market deserve serious attention.

When people talk about gilts being “undervalued,” what they’re really reacting to is something deeper… the market’s perception of fiscal credibility.

Here’s what often gets overlooked…

Bond markets are one of the few real time mechanisms that hold governments accountable. While we usually associate accountability with elections and politics, markets speak a different language… cost.

When governments borrow too aggressively or look fiscally reckless, lenders (investors) start to lose confidence. That loss of trust shows up fast… in higher yields, weaker demand, and rising refinancing costs. It’s not about partisanship it’s about risk and trust.

If a government behaves as if it can spend freely or rely on money printing without consequences, the bond market pushes back. And that’s exactly what we’re seeing now.

It’s not just a technical issue or a pricing anomaly it’s the market demanding responsibility.

The UK’s current situation is a powerful reminder… the cost of capital matters. Markets aren’t political they’re rational. And when that rationality flags something, it’s worth paying attention.

I’ll translate… please somebody buy our debt…

Anyway…

Probably nothing

Senator Cynthia Lummis declared that the United States is “going all in on crypto” following a pivotal week of crypto-friendly legislation in Congress. Her comments came after progress on several key bills aimed at regulating digital assets.

Delta Air Lines just launched a controversial ticket pricing system. The system relies on AI algorithms that analyze your personal data to determine exactly how much you will pay for the same seat others might get cheaper. The system has expanded from 3% to 20% of domestic flights in 2025, with Delta's goal of eliminating fixed pricing entirely.⁠
⁠
Here's how it works: Israeli startup Fetcherr's AI analyzes your booking history, browsing patterns, and price sensitivity to create personalized fares. Delta President Glen Hauenstein calls it a "super analyst working 24/7" that finds your individual "pain point"—essentially the maximum you're willing to pay before walking away.⁠
⁠
Senator Ruben Gallego slammed it as "predatory pricing," arguing Delta is using AI to "squeeze you for every penny." The backlash is bipartisan, with privacy advocates concerned about the data collection required to make such personal pricing decisions.⁠
⁠
The scary part? This isn't just Delta. Virgin Atlantic, WestJet, and others use similar AI pricing systems, suggesting the entire industry is quietly moving toward personalized pricing. Traditional price shopping becomes meaningless when each customer sees prices tailored to their individual profile.⁠
⁠
For now, clearing cookies and using VPNs might help, but Delta's eventual goal of requiring logged-in accounts for status benefits would eliminate these workarounds. The future of air travel pricing isn't about supply and demand—it's about how much the algorithm thinks you can afford.⁠

An exhibition that aims to showcase innovations in Bahraini-made crafts and products opens tomorrow.

The Social Development Ministry will host the ‘Summer of Craft and Innovation’ exhibition at the Capital Mall. The expo will run until Monday, from 10am to 8pm.

This is part of the ministry’s ongoing efforts to support national projects and to strengthen the role of the sustainable social economy in development, assistant under-secretary for community development Enas Al Majid said yesterday.

She emphasised that organising the exhibition forms part of the ministry’s continued efforts to support Bahraini artisans and productive families by enhancing marketing platforms that enable them to showcase their products and strengthen their presence in the local market. This not only promotes the sustainability of their projects but also contributes to supporting the community economy, the official added.
