The Western Journal: Rep. Jasmine Crockett: 'We Done Picking Cotton,' So We Apparently Need Illegals to Do It
Rep. Jasmine Crockett sparked controversy by stating, “we done picking cotton” and suggesting that illegal immigrants are needed for farming in the U.S. during a speech at a church event in Connecticut. Her comments have drawn criticism for their implications regarding labor and race.
Crockett's remarks have been interpreted as a troubling reference to slavery, raising concerns about the Democratic stance on illegal immigration and labor practices. Critics argue that her comments reflect a problematic view of the need for immigrant labor in agriculture, particularly in a context linked to historical exploitation.

The Western Journal: Data Guru: We Looked at Phone GPS Info of Anti-Trumpers in Chicago, Discovered Treasure Trove of Incriminating Info
Recent protests against President Trump and Elon Musk have drawn significant media attention, with claims of massive turnout. However, data expert Tony Seruga analyzed GPS information and found that reported numbers were inflated, with actual attendance in Chicago being around 7,498 instead of the claimed 30,000.
Seruga's analysis suggests that many attendees have a history of participation in previous rallies and protests, indicating that these events may not reflect widespread grassroots support. This raises questions about the authenticity of such demonstrations and highlights the role of political theater in shaping public perception.
Fox News: Gabbard establishes new Intelligence Community task force to restore transparency
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has launched a new task force, the Director’s Initiative Group (DIG), aimed at enhancing transparency and accountability in the intelligence community. The group is investigating the weaponization of intelligence, politicization, and unauthorized disclosures while also reviewing documents for potential declassification.
Gabbard's efforts include addressing wasteful spending and streamlining processes within the intelligence community. She has also revoked security clearances for several political figures and is pursuing accountability for employees involved in inappropriate behavior on internal messaging platforms.
Fox News: Trump-backed bill to rein in federal judges gets House-wide vote
The House of Representatives is set to vote on the No Rogue Rulings Act (NORRA), aimed at limiting federal district court judges from issuing nationwide injunctions against President Trump's policies. Introduced by Rep. Darrell Issa, the bill has strong GOP support but is unlikely to gain Democratic backing.
If passed, the legislation would require district judges to tailor their rulings to specific cases rather than issuing broad injunctions. The bill is seen as a response to numerous nationwide injunctions that have challenged various Trump administration initiatives. A procedural vote is anticipated on Tuesday.

GB News: Taxpayers told to cough up even MORE cash for Chagos handover as Mauritius demands more money in last-ditch attempt
Mauritius is demanding increased payments from the UK for the Chagos Islands, complicating final negotiations on a deal that could be presented to Parliament soon. The UK has agreed to advance some payments but insists it will not exceed the previously set £9 billion limit.

The Telegraph: Britain’s fighter jet problem has only one solution
The UK faces challenges in transitioning from its aging fourth-generation Typhoon fighter jets to the necessary next-generation aircraft. Currently, the RAF operates over 90 Typhoons, but many are becoming obsolete, while the F-35B, the only modern fifth-generation fighter, has limitations in combat radius and weaponry.
With only 34 F-35Bs in service and a limited arsenal, the UK's air power capabilities are in a precarious position. The reliance on outdated models and the complexities of modern air combat raise concerns about future readiness.

On The Water: The Lake Trout of Wachusett Reservoir
Wachusett Reservoir in Massachusetts, a vital drinking water source for over three million residents, is a unique fishing destination for lake trout. Anglers can access its shoreline for fishing, but must use specialized gear to target the elusive species, including long rods and specific lures.
The reservoir has produced multiple record catches, including a notable 39-inch lake trout in April 2024. Fishing conditions vary by season, with spring and fall being particularly productive. Anglers are encouraged to adapt their techniques and locations to maximize success while respecting the reservoir's ecological significance.
