Fox News: Martha's Vineyard officials won't say if they will take migrants from cities running out of shelter space
Martha's Vineyard refused to house illegal immigrants following Title 42's expiration, unlike other East Coast cities. Officials were asked if they would consider aiding Democrat-run cities struggling to shelter tens of thousands of migrants, but did not respond. In September, Gov. DeSantis sent 50 migrants to the island, leading to a declared "humanitarian crisis", but they were removed within 44 hours. No one on the island offered to house the homeless migrants.

Fox News: 'Jeopardy!' host Ken Jennings slammed by 'Big Bang Theory' star for crossing the picket line
"Jeopardy!" host Ken Jennings faced criticism after he crossed the Writers Guild of America picket line while filming the game show. Wil Wheaton, who appeared on the show before, called out Jennings in a Facebook post, saying, "Your privilege may protect you right now, but we will *never* forget." Jennings continued filming while co-host Mayim Bialik stepped down in solidarity with the writers strike. The union is seeking better pay, more writers per show, and less exclusivity on single projects. If the strike lasts through the summer, fall TV schedules could be upended.
Fox News: Blocking US oil drilling will backfire on Biden's climate agenda: report
US oil drilling has significantly lower carbon intensity compared to foreign alternatives, according to a report by global consulting firm ICF and commissioned by offshore energy trade group National Ocean Industries Association. The report found that US oil production is 23% less carbon-intensive compared to production outside the US and Canada. The carbon intensity of drilling in the Gulf of Mexico is 46% lower than the global average. Despite this, the Biden administration has taken aim at the US oil and gas industry while turning to foreign producers that are often more carbon-intensive, says NOIA President Erik Milito.
Breitbart: Nolte: FBI's Treason Is Why Policing Must Remain De-Centralized
The Durham Report confirms that the FBI is a den of traitors seeking a coup against a sitting president, but nothing will be done about it. The godless left and its media enablers will do anything to obtain and hold power, even if it means opening the border to mass deaths and drug runners. Democrats want to nationalize policing, but this must be prevented as it would result in the destruction of America's cities and the violation of citizens' rights. Red State governors should go to war with the treasonous FBI and refuse to cooperate in any way.

Fox News: North Carolina GOP Legislature attempts to override Democratic Gov. Cooper’s veto of new abortion restrictions
Republicans in North Carolina will try to override a gubernatorial veto on legislation to ban most abortions after 12 weeks, in a test of unity for the party's supermajority. Governor Roy Cooper vetoed the bill last weekend after urging some Republicans to side with him. The Republican-controlled Senate will first consider the override on Tuesday afternoon, according to Senate leader Phil Berger. House Speaker Tim Moore’s chief of staff said the speaker then aims to complete the override later in the day should Senate Republicans be successful. Democrats have criticised the bill as an erosion of reproductive health rights.
The Blaze: Law professor asks Adam Schiff to show his phantasmal evidence of Russian collusion after Durham report reveals FBI investigation was baseless
Rep. Adam Schiff is being called out over his false claims of evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia after the release of the final version of special counsel John Durham's report. Legal scholar Jonathan Turley has called on Schiff to reveal the evidence he claimed to have. Durham's report found that the FBI used “raw, unanalyzed, and uncorroborated intelligence" to investigate the Trump campaign and that most of those involved knew this. Schiff's assertions were either baseless or based on an assumption that the actual truth would not come out. Categorize as .

Ambassador Kelly Craft over former President Donald Trump's pick, Kentucky Attorney General David Cameron, in the Kentucky gubernatorial GOP primary election.

Former President Obama advocates for stricter gun control laws in America, citing Australia's example where gun ownership is not a legal right.

He also laments the division in the country due to the "splintered media."

Euromaidan Press: UK to supply Ukraine with hundreds of kamikaze drones with twice the range of HIMARS – media
The UK will send hundreds of long-range kamikaze drones to Ukraine to aid their defense against Russia's invasion. The one-way drones have a range of over 125 miles, carrying munitions comparable to an artillery shell. The drones are set to be delivered in the coming months, and the UK stipulated that they are to be used only on Ukrainian soil. Emmanuel Macron has also expressed willingness to train Ukrainian fighter pilots and hinted at delivering long-range missiles to Ukraine.

National Review: The Debt-Ceiling Endgame
The Biden administration is reportedly shifting away from its position that the debt-limit bill must be "clean" and looking to make a deal with Republican lawmakers. The U.S. government currently has a 1.15:1 debt-to-GDP ratio, which is slightly below Portugal's and nearly double that of countries with similar ratings. Failure to take action during the debt-limit showdown could result in a ratings downgrade, but a compromise with Republicans could serve President Biden's broader ambitions for a second term.
National Review: Bob Lucas, the Most Influential Macroeconomist of the Last Quarter of the 20th Century
University of Chicago macroeconomist Robert E. Lucas Jr. passed away this week. Lucas transformed macroeconomics in the 20th century, helping to introduce the “rational expectations revolution” in the 1970s which replaced the previous Keynesian paradigm. One of Lucas’s key contributions was emphasising the addition of rational expectations into macroeconomic models. This argued that government policy is less effective without rational, forward-looking agents, becoming the Lucas Critique. Lucas also recognised the importance of long-term economic growth over business-cycle fluctuations, commenting that the consequence for human welfare involved in economic growth questions are “simply staggering’.
The Epoch Times: UK Unemployment at 3.9 Percent as Job Vacancies Fall
Unemployment in the UK has risen unexpectedly, with 3.9% unemployed in January-March 2023, the highest in over a year, according to the Office of National Statistics. The number of vacancies fell by 55,000 to reach 1.08 million while the economic inactivity rate reduced by 0.4 percentage points to reach 21% in the same time period. The ONS attributed the drop in vacancies to uncertainty across industries. The working days lost to labour disputes rose to 556,000 due to strikes by various professionals, with education and health causing 80% of the total.
National Review: The Corner: Chicago: Pork Bellies to Flee the Sinking Ship?
Chicago's new mayor, Brandon Johnson, has proposed a financial-transactions tax, which could prompt the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) to leave the city, said Terry Duffy, CEO of CME Group. Duffy stated that CME had already sold all its property in Chicago, with the lease agreements containing a clause negating them should the city enact any "ill-conceived" policies. While Duffy affirmed that CME, like him, likes to remain in Chicago, the adoption of such a tax would be considered a significant peril. The tax proposal, which is seeking increases in tax rather than cuts, is probably not within the city's powers to levy and could drive the derivatives sector away.

The Blaze: '100% vindication': Teachers win big settlement after being fired, denied COVID vaccine religious exemptions
Three Rhode Island teachers have reached a settlement with their school district after being fired for denying a religious exemption to the school's COVID-19 vaccine mandate. The settlement, worth more than $500,000, includes full reinstatement, back pay, and attorney fees for all three teachers. Brittany DiOrio, Stephanie Hines, and Kerri Thurber were denied religious exceptions to the school's mandatory COVID-19 vaccine policy at the beginning of the school year. Barrington Public Schools will also pay the teachers' legal counsel $50,000.
The teachers will receive back pay in the amounts of $65,000, $128,000, and $150,000, respectively, as well as splitting $100,000 equally. The district policy at the time helped combat the pressing public health crisis of the time, while keeping schools open, and nearly all faculty adhered to it, the district stated. The district decided that they would cease ongoing litigation to spend time and money on the daily work of the district.

Fox News: How creepy augmented reality enables seeing through walls
MIT researchers are developing an augmented reality headset called X-AR that can allow people to see hidden objects behind walls and in boxes. It works by combining new antenna designs, wireless signal processing algorithms and an AI-based fusion of different sensors. The headset uses a wide-band antenna to locate objects outside the wearer's line of sight that has a Radio Frequency Identifier. The researchers hope that first responders will be able to use the headset to locate people quickly in rescue missions. However, there are privacy concerns that need to be addressed before public release.

The Federalist: CNN Falls To Newsmax In Friday's Prime-Time Ratings
Newsmax beat CNN in Friday's prime-time ratings, marking the latest embarrassment for the declining left-wing propaganda network.

Australia's Minister for Climate Change and Energy, Chris Bowen, has stated that nuclear power is not a viable option for the country's energy mix due to the high costs of creating a new industry from scratch, as well as social license concerns. Bowen prefers to stick with renewables, which he calls the "cheapest" form of energy. The comments follow a call by Opposition leader Peter Dutton to consider nuclear as a cost-effective, low-emission, and safe energy option in his Budget Reply speech. CSIRO, the government scientific research center, had also said that nuclear power did not provide an economically competitive solution for Australia.
