Fox News: Pro-energy group urges AG Bondi to probe Biden's autopen on crucial decisions that devastated industry
An energy watchdog group is urging the Trump administration to investigate whether former President Biden used an autopen to sign significant energy-related executive orders, questioning their legitimacy and Biden's awareness of them. The letter highlights concerns over actions like the pause on LNG exports, suggesting they may have been enacted without Biden's direct approval.
The inquiry follows claims from Trump regarding the validity of Biden's pardons, which he alleges were similarly signed via autopen. The situation raises broader questions about the president's mental acuity and the role of unelected officials in shaping major policies.

Breitbart: Nolte: San Francisco Gay Pride Parade Loses Longtime Sponsors
Several longtime sponsors, including Anheuser-Busch, have withdrawn funding from the San Francisco Gay Pride Weekend, leaving the organization to cover a $300,000 shortfall. Executive director Suzanne Ford noted that the loss of multiple long-term sponsors is unusual and reflects a shift in corporate support for Pride events.
Ford suggested that companies may perceive supporting Pride as risky in the current political climate, where public sentiment toward the LGBTQ+ community has changed. Critics argue that the movement's focus on children has led to backlash against corporate sponsorship.

Times Of Israel: Civil defense team stopped major Hamas invasion at Alumim, but dozens were murdered outside
On October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorists attacked Kibbutz Alumim, resulting in the deaths of nearly two dozen foreign agricultural workers and numerous civilians fleeing a nearby music festival. The local security team and other Israeli forces engaged in an eight-hour battle, ultimately preventing a larger infiltration but suffering significant casualties, including 57 civilians and five security personnel.
An IDF probe concluded that the military failed to adequately protect the kibbutz, citing a lack of preparedness for such a coordinated assault. The investigation highlighted the heroism of local defenders but noted a collapse in command and coordination among Israeli forces during the attack.
Breitbart: Biden-Appointed Judge Blocks Pentagon Ban on Transgender Troops
A federal judge has blocked a Trump-era policy that barred transgender individuals from serving in the military without a waiver. U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes issued a preliminary injunction, stating that the ban contradicted the principle of equal protection and highlighted the sacrifices made by transgender service members.
The ruling has drawn criticism from the Trump administration, which argues that the decision undermines military standards. The judge's opinion emphasized the mental health benefits of gender-affirming treatments, countering claims that such treatments hinder deployability. The Justice Department is expected to appeal the ruling.

Human Events: JACK POSOBIEC and ROGER STONE: The JFK assassination was a coup—and LBJ was at the center
Roger Stone claims that President John F. Kennedy's assassination was part of a conspiracy involving Lyndon B. Johnson, the CIA, and organized crime, as discussed in a recent interview. He argues that the newly released 80,000 pages of files do not address key aspects of the conspiracy he outlines in his book.
Stone contends that Johnson's motives included fears of being indicted and losing power, while the CIA and organized crime had their reasons for wanting Kennedy removed. The files, released by the Trump administration, are now available for public review at the National Archives.
