Forbes: Musk Targets Soros On Twitter After Defending Earlier Comments— Despite Criticism Over Fanning Conspiracies
Elon Musk continues to accuse George Soros on Twitter of enabling violent crime and accused him of instructing prosecutors to minimize prosecuting even violent criminals. This comes after criticism for using right-wing conspiracies and antisemitic tropes to attack Soros. His attacks were sparked by a tweet by a venture capitalist and early SpaceX investor David Sacks, who criticized Soros’ backing of progressive district attorney candidates in elections and called his actions “uniquely destructive to law & order in American cities.” Critics on Twitter accused Musk of resorting to antisemitic tropes in his initial tweet about Soros, which was unprompted but came days after the billionaire’s firm Soros Fund Management disclosed it had sold off its entire holdings of Tesla stock.
Newsbusters: RACE CARD: Forbes Magazine Cries ‘Antisemitic’ at Elon Musk for Calling Out George Soros
Elon Musk criticized George Soros on Twitter for his open society agenda. Forbes accused him of using antisemitic tropes and repeating right-wing conspiracy talking points. Soros is known for his opposition to American nationalism and sovereignty, advocating for an "Open Society Alliance" led by "developed democracies". Forbes defended Soros, but Musk was right about his anti-humanity philosophy. Critics of Soros are often falsely accused of being anti-Semitic. Soros' vision includes gun control, open borders, repression of religion, ending patriotism, curtailing freedom, and a One World Government.
Liberty Nation: The Durham Rebuttal Narrative Is in Full Swing
The Durham Report has confirmed Donald Trump's belief that federal agencies conspired with Democrats to stop him from being elected and to derail his presidency. The Democrats in leftist media outlets dismissed the 300-page report, focusing on the lack of major convictions instead of the FBI's numerous missteps in its investigation into the debunked Russiagate affair. They relied on willful ignorance to disregard Durham's findings and issued false admonishments against the existence of the investigation. Although the report may not be a smoking gun, it has further exposed the egregious bias of the FBI, while vindicating Donald Trump.
Red State: Fetterman Raises Eyebrows With Incoherent Remarks During Bank Committee Hearing
Senator John Fetterman, who suffered from a stroke last year and allegedly struggled with severe depression, continued to run for office despite his condition. Recently, he made incoherent statements during a Senate Banking Committee hearing and posted a flag with pot on it, which is illegal in the state he represents. This raises concerns about his ability to fully serve the people.
The Democrats are risking Fetterman's health by keeping him in office. However, their "Occupy Democrats" account describes his recent remarks as a "star-making takedown of Republican policies and corporate greed." This seems to be a delusional view, as Fetterman's condition has clearly affected his ability to do his job. It is concerning that someone in his condition is able to make decisions that can affect the public.
Fox News: Democrats maintain House majority with Heather Boyd's special election win
Democrat Heather Boyd won a special election in Pennsylvania's Philadelphia suburbs, giving Democrats the minimum needed seats to maintain their Pennsylvania House majority . The seat was previously held by Democrat Rep. Mike Zabel, who resigned after being accused of sexual harassment. Boyd's win allows Democrats to control how the chamber handles abortion, election law legislation, and gun rights, potentially affecting a proposed constitutional amendment limiting abortion rights. Republican Katie Ford, who is personally against abortion, accused Boyd of not doing enough in response to the allegations against Zabel. In another special election, Republican Michael Stender kept a central Pennsylvania seat in his party's hands .
Fox News: Democrat Cherelle Parker wins Philadelphia's mayoral primary
Cherelle Parker wins Philadelphia mayoral primary, likely becoming the city's first female mayor and facing Republican David Oh in November. She aims to address public safety and quality of life by putting more officers on the streets. Progressives were disappointed as Parker beat Helen Gym, who was backed by Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The results of the primary serve as the latest barometer for emerging from the pandemic's impact on crime, poverty and inequality. The mayors of Chicago and San Francisco have been ousted in similar recent contests.
Fox News: WATCH: Dems dismiss Durham report that found flaws in FBI’s Trump probe: ‘A process foul’
House and Senate Democrats dismissed findings from Special Counsel John Durham's report, which found that the FBI “failed to uphold their mission of strict fidelity to the law” during their investigation into the Trump-Russia campaign. Eric Swalwell, sitting on the House Intelligence Committee, mentioned that “It’s a process foul, not of substance” while Representative Jamie Raskin stated that “nobody takes it seriously". Senator Joe Manchin had nothing else to say while Rep. Dan Goldman was disappointed, stating that it was “very disappointing to see a once venerable prosecutor clearly infected by political bias."
American Thinker: Is RFK, Jr. moving to the left in his campaign for the Democrat presidential nomination?
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Democratic presidential candidate, made an appearance on FOX News with Bret Baier and criticized Donald Trump's handling of the pandemic, which marks a shift in RFK, Jr.'s pitch. He previously took a unifying position and appeared on platforms with notable MAGA stalwarts. RFK, Jr. also proposed to invest in domestic spending and cut the military budget, claiming that the Democratic Party has become the party of war. Despite his initial ranking in early polls of around 20%, RFK, Jr. has been shunned by the mainstream media, with the exception of FOX News.
National Review: Refusing to Worry
Despite being heavily criticized in the political press since mid-March, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is poised to enter the 2024 presidential race with many strengths. He has expanded school choice, cut taxes, and gained a loyal following during the pandemic by standing up for normal schooling and against compulsory masks and vaccines. DeSantis is expected to start the race with polling showing him outperforming Donald Trump in a general-election matchup against Joe Biden, an enormous war chest, and a record 37 endorsements from elected Iowa Republicans. While Trump still has strengths as a Republican who runs against Republicans and appeals to poor and working-class white voters, he also has many weaknesses, including his divisiveness, election denialism, legal troubles, and being the main character in American life since 2015.

National Review: The Corner: Another Controversy Erupts at Middlebury College
Middlebury College removes name of donor from chapel in response to controversy surrounding his previous support of the eugenics movement. John Mead, a Vermont governor in the early 20th century and the donor in question, had given $75,000 towards the construction of the chapel, which was initially named the Mead Memorial Chapel. However, the college recently renamed it after taking into account claims that the naming was in honor of Mead's ancestors rather than him and his wife, who Mead himself had intended to honor. The ensuing legal case was brought to court after Vermont Governor Douglas contested the name change on behalf of the Mead family.
National Review: Meet the NYC Theater Teacher Who Stood Up to ‘Anti-Racist’ Activists at the Height of the Moral Panic of 2020
Theater director Kevin Ray was asked by teachers at a New York City public high school to develop and teach a workshop on “Theater and Toxic Masculinity,” which he refused to do. He was transferred to a different class when he objected, and the school did not explain which academic standard it fulfilled. Ray has filed a complaint in federal court against New 42, a leading performing arts group whose mission is to get young people interested in theatre, claiming that it created a hostile work environment and circulated materials to staff members claiming that white people should have separate “affinity groups” because “racism is a white problem.”

Liberty Nation: High Noon for the Debt Ceiling Showdown
The US is nearing the X-Date, the day when the Treasury will no longer be able to meet its obligations if Congress fails to raise the debt ceiling, in a few weeks. President Biden and House Speaker McCarthy have made progress in their negotiations, and while a deal is not guaranteed, McCarthy hopes an agreement can be reached in the coming days. Treasury Secretary Yellen warns that a government default would potentially slip the US into a recession as millions of jobs would be lost, businesses closed, and Americans left without income payments, and the international financial markets would also be in disarray. There is a possibility that Washington cannot fathom the idea of returning spending to 2022 levels, so politicians on both sides of the aisle will furrow their brows, order a cart of pizza boxes, shake hands, and tell the cameras that this is a good day for America.

The Federalist: Fat And Infertile: New Study Links Obesity And Low Sperm Count
Overweight boys in adolescence face a higher risk of fertility issues, such as lower testicular volume and sperm production, according to a study by Italian researchers in the European Journal of Endocrinology. The findings contribute to research pointing to obesity as the primary cause of health issues in the West, and testosterone level declines as the primary driver behind obesity. With more than 2 in 5 Americans now obese, a sustained fertility crisis is predicted with no signs of slowing.
The food and pharmaceutical industries, in profit-making efforts, are not providing the necessary focus and resources for the obesity crisis. Meanwhile, cultural influences have gained big followings by raising white flags on the issue. Mass media also continues to stigmatize exercise, brand obesity as the "future of fitness," and promote the idea that extremely overweight people can still be healthy. Obesity is the second leading cause of preventable death and raises individuals' risk to COVID-19 complications, posing a serious health threat.
Fox News: DeSantis, pro-life activists hit back at Trump over abortion bill criticism
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis defended his signing of a six-week abortion ban after criticism from former President Trump that the bill was "too harsh" for pro-life voters. DeSantis pushed back, saying virtually all pro-life supporters endorsed the act. Existing state exceptions for the life of the mother also remain in place.
Fox News: Adopting AI systems too quickly without full testing could lead to 'errors by health care workers': WHO
The World Health Organization (WHO) has issued an advisory for "safe and ethical AI for health." The caution comes amid the growing popularity of large language model tools (LLMs) like ChatGPT, which in some cases have been shown to rival real physicians in medical advice. However, WHO warns of the risks associated with adopting AI systems too quickly without proper testing, including generating misleading or inaccurate information that could pose risks to health equity. The organization calls for widespread adherence to key values of transparency, inclusion, public engagement, expert supervision, and rigorous evaluation to ensure patient safety and privacy.
Manny Krakaris, CEO of Augmedix, supports WHO's advisory, stating that caution when using LLMs is paramount to patient safety and privacy. While LLMs can provide a great deal of efficiency and be used to summarise and streamline large amounts of data quickly, Krakaris acknowledges that doctors and patients cannot rely on LLMs as a standalone solution, as they can have catastrophic consequences, especially in healthcare. Augmedix combines LLMs with automatic speech recognition, natural language processing, and structured data models to ensure the output is accurate and relevant. AI has promise in healthcare, but it requires caution, proper testing, and human involvement, Krakaris said.

The Epoch Times: Riley Gaines Details 'Traumatic' Experience of Being 'Held Against Her Will' by Protesters Who 'Demanded Ransom'
Former University of Kentucky swimmer Riley Gaines has testified before Congress about her traumatic experience at San Francisco State University, where she was assaulted and held against her will by protesters after giving a speech on women's participation in sports. Gaines, who has advocated against biological males competing in women's sports, said she feared for her life as protesters demanded a ransom for her release. The swimmer claimed that the campus police failed to show up for a scheduled meeting to brief her on security, and then the room where she was speaking filled up with protesters, who eventually broke in and assaulted her.
Elsewhere, Gaines described the traumatic experience she and other female athletes endured while sharing a locker room with transgender athlete Lia Thomas, who is biologically male. Gaines said that Thomas walked into the locker room fully intact with male genitalia and disrobed while female athletes were also undressing. She added that teammates of Thomas felt uncomfortable over the issue and officials provided them with counseling resources. Gaines has campaigned against biological males competing in women's sports and advocated for a level playing field for women.

Forbes: Packers’ Defensive Coordinator Joe Barry Wasn’t Surprised He Kept His Job
Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Joe Barry faces pressure in 2023 after a disappointing 2022 season. The Packers defense failed to live up to expectations despite having seven first round draft picks. Inconsistency was the main issue, with the defense performing well at times but poorly at others. Barry will need to find consistency if he hopes to keep his job and help the team succeed this season.
Forbes: What Next For Milan?
Milan lost the UEFA Champions League semi-final to Inter, failing to mount a successful comeback. The team needed an early goal to have any hope, but Diaz missed a chance in the 10th minute, and the dream of winning died. Inter comprehensively outplayed and outwitted Milan, who had very little exposure to the nuances of such games, unlike their city rivals. Milan's poor form may mean they will miss out on qualification for next season's competition, and for them to succeed, RedBird needs to invest seriously and deliver what is needed, as the Milan team has limitations at the highest level of competition.
