The New American: Crossings Drop, Border Still Overwhelmed - The New American
Crossings Drop, Border Still Overwhelmed - The New American
Illegal border crossings have decreased by 50% after the expiration of the Title 42 pandemic-era immigration policy. The Biden administration's implementation of a higher standard for asylum applications and legal pathways for immigrants using CBP One app is cited as contributing to the decrease. Republican Texas Congressman Tony Gonzales criticized the Biden administration's immigration policy for focusing on illegal immigration rather than legal immigration and urged Congress to enforce existing laws and create a route for people to come over legally. Meanwhile, illegal immigrants seeking asylum are receiving immigration court dates set years from now, making it clear that Congress and the president must act to protect the nation's sovereignty.

The Corner: This Is How to Attack Trump
DeSantis challenges Trump's stance on abortion, stating that protecting an unborn child when there is a detectable heartbeat is strongly supported by pro-lifers. Trump's vulnerability on this issue may warrant readjustment.


Daily Wire: Marjorie Taylor Greene Moves To Impeach FBI Director Christopher Wray
Marjorie Taylor Greene Moves To Impeach FBI Director Christopher Wray
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene introduced articles of impeachment against FBI Director Christoper Wray, accusing him of failing to uphold his oath and losing the trust of U.S. citizens to “faithfully execute the laws” of the United States. The articles of impeachment also highlighted several grievances against Wray, including the treatment of anti-abortion activists and Catholics, investigative tactics employed against former President Donald Trump, and the criminal investigation into the president’s son Hunter Biden.


The Federalist: TX House Speaker Should Advance Ranked-Choice Voting Ban
TX House Speaker Should Advance Ranked-Choice Voting Ban
Texas’ Senate has passed a measure that bans ranked-choice voting (RCV) and requires candidates to win a “majority vote” to be elected. The legislation, SB 921, has gained bipartisan support and awaits approval in the House. It only needs the House Speaker Dade Phelan’s approval to be considered. Critics of RCV have accused it of being a “rigged-choice voting,” making voting more difficult, reducing transparency, and lowering voter confidence. The system has led to questionable outcomes in Maine and Alaska, and several states, including Florida, Tennessee, South Dakota, Idaho, and Montana, have banned its use.

Shareholder Jailed After Criticizing Warren Buffett's Politics - The New American
Peter Flaherty, a shareholder at Berkshire Hathaway, was arrested and charged with criminal trespass at the company's annual meeting in Omaha, Nebraska. Flaherty claimed that Warren Buffet’s radical political leanings were leading to reputational harm for shareholders and cited Buffet's support for Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and its politicized philanthropy. Flaherty was arrested after mentioning Gates’ ties to Jeffrey Epstein, causing officials to cut his mic and remove him from the meeting. Flaherty believes he was falsely arrested and may sue.


The Epoch Times: Biden Family Business Transactions Made Intentionally 'Difficult to Understand' Where Money Came From: Legal Scholar
Biden Family Business Transactions Made Intentionally 'Difficult to Understand' Where Money Came From: Legal Scholar
House Republicans have revealed preliminary findings from an ongoing investigation into Joe Biden’s family business transactions. They described nearly two dozen Limited Liability Corporations established by the Biden family members to receive payments from private clients, corporations, and foreign governments, including China, Ukraine and Romania, which according to legal scholar Horace Cooper, were meant to obscure what they were really doing. The Republicans have gained access to several Suspicious Activity Reports generated by banks to flag transaction behaviour commonly associated with fraud and money laundering. Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, has been under federal investigation for years for possible tax fraud and money laundering.

The FBI has an unclassified record alleging a “criminal scheme” involving Joe Biden and a foreign national during his time as vice president, which House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer and Senate Budget Committee ranking member Chuck Grassley have called on Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray to turn over. Christopher Dunham, the FBI’s acting assistant director for congressional affairs, has written to Comer to explain the FBI’s “confidentiality interests” but did not turn over the requested document. Cooper suggested an impeachment process could compel the FBI to turn over the alleged documents. House Republicans have continued to scrutinise the Biden business entities, which they believe constitute fraud and money laundering.


The Epoch Times: House GOP Says Politics Is Behind Lack of Consequences for Pro-Abortion Extremists
House GOP Says Politics Is Behind Lack of Consequences for Pro-Abortion Extremists
Republicans accuse the Department of Justice of improperly enforcing the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act. The law prohibits the use or threat of force to intimidate or obstruct those seeking to obtain or provide “reproductive health services.” Several witnesses, including a Catholic pro-life advocate who was arrested by the FBI, testified before the Judiciary Subcommittee regarding the Justice Department’s treatment of pro-life organizations. While the Justice Department has enforced the FACE Act against pro-life individuals, the subcommittee chairman noted that the Biden administration has rarely enforced the law in defense of pro-life pregnancy centers and churches. Over the past year, attacks on pro-life organizations and churches have increased.




Fox News: FBI opened Trump-Russia probe despite Papadopoulos' denial that said collusion would be 'treason': Durham
FBI opened Trump-Russia probe despite Papadopoulos' denial that said collusion would be 'treason': Durham
The long-awaited report from Special Counsel John Durham revealed that the FBI opened the Trump-Russia investigation on the basis of "unanalyzed and uncorroborated intelligence," despite former Trump campaign aide George Papadopoulos' repeated denials and strong condemnation of collusion activity as "treasonous" and "illegal." Durham's report noted that Papadopoulos rebuffed the attempts of informants to link the WikiLeaks disclosure to the campaign, but that those statements were not included in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) applications. The report concluded that the Bureau dismissed Papadopoulos' denials without cause, deemed them "scripted," and excluded them from the FISA applications.




Fox News: Marjorie Taylor Greene introduces articles of impeachment against FBI Director Christopher Wray
Marjorie Taylor Greene introduces articles of impeachment against FBI Director Christopher Wray
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., has introduced articles of impeachment against FBI Director Christopher Wray, accusing him of facilitating the development of a federal police force to intimidate, harass, and entrap American citizens deemed enemies of the Biden regime. Greene cited examples of what she called abuse of authority by the FBI, including the bureau's unprecedented raid on the home of former President Donald Trump on Aug. 8, 2022, and its creation of a "terrorist threat tag" following the Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade.

President Trump nominated Wray in 2017 after firing then-director James Comey, and Greene's move follows the release of Special Counsel John Durham's final report on the FBI's investigation into alleged collusion between Russia and Donald Trump in the 2016 campaign. Durham's report found that the FBI and DOJ jumped too hastily into the investigation and relied too much on raw and unconfirmed intelligence.

It's Time for Hillary to Pay for What She's Done to America
Hillary Clinton and her associates lied about Donald Trump being a Russian spy, according to the Durham Report. Despite knowing the truth, the FBI, DOJ, and CIA went after Trump anyway and covered up for Clinton. The investigation has cost taxpayers over $38 million, and Clinton should pay for every day that was spent retracing the corrupt FBI's steps due to her lies. Donald Trump should also sue Clinton for defamation and other damages. The American people deserve their money back.

Career abortionist admits most late-term abortions he performs involve healthy babies and mothers; unwittingly exposes savagery sought by House Democrats
Warren Hern, an abortionist from Colorado, has shared his insights on the brutal procedure of abortion with The Atlantic. Hern, who performs late-term abortions on viable human beings, admitted that he kills healthy babies and infants because of their gender. Democrats are seeking to legislate unlimited abortion into existence, and the "Women's Health Protection Act" has recently been reintroduced to the House in order to make limitless abortion a nationwide right. Repeated attempts by Democrats to enshrine abortion as a national right without limit have failed due to Republican-led opposition in Congress.

Foreign Policy: Russia’s Convict-Soldiers Have Their Own Brutal Rules
Russia’s Convict-Soldiers Have Their Own Brutal Rules
The Russian state has been recruiting from its prisons to plug holes in manpower caused by the war in Ukraine. Mercenary company, The Wagner Group, founded by a close ally of Vladimir Putin, began forcefully recruiting criminals by offering freedom in return for service. The power of Russia’s criminal culture has shaped the lives of soldiers, with notions from the “thieves’ world” creating strict social hierarchies and a set of rules that are often ignored or overlooked by Western analysts. The thieves’ culture has become even more prominent since the invasion of Ukraine, and understanding it is key to understanding the conflict.

Alleged Turkish drone strike targets Yazidi militant group in Iraq’s Sinjar
An alleged Turkish drone strike targeted a Yazidi militant group in Iraq’s Sinjar. Conflicting local reports claim either three militants were killed and one wounded, or one civilian was lightly injured. The group, known as the YBS, has been a frequent target of Turkish attacks for its links to the PKK, a separatist movement banned in Turkey. The continued violence has hampered efforts to return Yazidis to their ancestral homeland, where tens of thousands were killed or captured in a 2014 genocide by ISIS.

Biden Vetoes Bill Restoring Tariffs on Some Chinese Solar Panels
President Biden vetoed a bill seeking to reverse his temporary suspension of tariffs on some solar panels from China, fulfilling his promise to veto the measure. The bill received bipartisan support in both the House and Senate, targeting a rule from the Commerce Department in September 2022 specifying that tariffs would be suspended for 24 months on panels made in China that undergo final assembly in Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand, and Malaysia. In his veto message, Biden said he won't extend the tariff suspension, arguing that it is part of a strategy to stimulate the domestic solar power industry, including new solar panel factories.

Sports Illustrated Goes Fully Woke, Puts Transgender Wearing a Two-Piece on Magazine Cover
Sports Illustrated features transgender model Kim Petras on the cover of its 2023 swimsuit edition, continuing the magazine's recent "woke" efforts. One of four cover models, Petras previously won a Grammy Award and Sports Illustrated cites her work as an inspiration to the LGBTQ+ community. However, featuring men claiming to be women, senior citizens, and obese women marks a departure from Sports Illustrated's intended celebration of feminine beauty, and this year's edition represents the second transgender model for the magazine. The choice of Petras also allegedly endorses the surgical mutilation of minors and the transgender agenda.

The Epoch Times: Elder Abuse: ‘I Feel for the Families,’ Says Seniors Support Consultant
Elder Abuse: ‘I Feel for the Families,’ Says Seniors Support Consultant
Elder abuse is a widespread issue in Ontario, with few services available to help seniors who are financially or mentally abused by family members or scammers. Often, seniors are too ashamed or afraid to report the abuse. Many seniors who finally do seek help are in dire situations with few options for financial or legal assistance. Seniors support consultant Christine Chan believes ageism and a lack of experience with seniors’ issues among police and care providers contribute to the problem, along with a lack of funding for elder abuse response programs. While Chan applauds services like Crisis Outreach Services for Seniors, which has helped 78 seniors so far, it only operates part-time. Financial abuse is the most common type of elder abuse, followed by scams. Chan says the best outcome in many cases is an improvement in the senior’s current situation.

Prominent Marine vets defend Daniel Penny amid NYC chokehold controversy
Marine veterans defend Daniel Penny's use of chokehold in death of a homeless man who was acting in a "hostile and erratic" manner on a New York City train . The veterans criticize those who believe the Marines should rethink the training of the technique used by Penny. Stuart Scheller calls Penny a "hero" who came to the aid of a woman in need, while Victor Marx believes that the same "broken corrupt system" that failed the mentally ill individual is now failing to protect a "good Samaritan" trying to protect innocent people. Mark Geist argues that Penny did everything right in the situation he faced and exercised every precaution for the individual he was restraining. Penny's use of the technique drew criticism from some Marine veterans, including Gabriel Murphy, who started a petition calling for his prosecution. Daniel Penny has received the support of a legal defense fundraising effort that has surpassed $2 million, including donations from Kid Rock and presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, among others.
