Red State: Progressive Dems Enraged After Biden Dismisses Demands for Triggering 14th Amend. for Debt Ceiling
Debt ceiling talks between Joe Biden and congressional Democrats and Republicans hit a brick wall, with senior Biden officials saying that invoking the 14th Amendment to avoid cutting spending would be risky and damaging. The White House remains resistant, seeing no reason to pull the plug on talks. Biden has told Democrats to forget about it, but they have been demanding this option. It would lead to a legal battle and undermine global faith in US creditworthiness. Progressives have issued shrill demands, insisting that the Republicans' compromise is tantamount to murdering baby seals.

Breitbart: Hong Kong Leader Defends Removing Tiananmen Square Books from Libraries
Hong Kong's chief executive, John Lee, has called for books with "bad ideologies" to be removed from public libraries, including books about the Tiananmen Square massacre, citing concerns over copyright issues and the spread of messages that are "not in the interests of Hong Kong." Lawmakers expressed skepticism towards Lee's claims that free speech protections are intact, with the national security law being used to shut down publications and silence critics. Notably, a 40-year-old comic strip from artist Wong Kei-kwan was abruptly terminated after depicting the political reliability rather than the ability of Hong Kong officials. The Hong Kong government has been cracking down on Tiananmen Square observances, leading to the removal of books on the subject and all mentions of them from online catalogs, and banning annual vigils that once hosted thousands of candle-bearing mourners.

Breitbart: AstraZeneca Exec: Build a Company that ‘Loves the Communist Party and Loves' China
The global executive vice-president for AstraZeneca, Wang Lei, expressed his affection for the Chinese Communist Party during a presentation at the 30th-anniversary gala for AstraZeneca in China. Other AstraZeneca executives declined to comment on Wang's speech or confirm if it expressed the company's true stance towards China. As AstraZeneca relies on China for 13% of its sales and has invested $450m to build a new factory for producing inhalers in Qingdao, it is believed that the company might have wanted to demonstrate its commitment and loyalty to the Chinese regime. The Chinese Communist Party could be leveraging its economic influence to oblige foreign businesses to show support for and confidence in the regime, in exchange for retaining their access to both factories and the consumer market in China.
China's intensified crackdown on foreign corporations and consulting firms continues, with the recent appointment of minister of state security Chen Yixin. Foreign companies that still wish to have access to Chinese markets might feel that a show of loyalty and affection towards the Chinese Communist Party is the best way to demonstrate they are not a threat and have no intention of embarrassing the regime. The crackdown is supposedly inconsistent with Premier Li Qiang's efforts to attract overseas companies; however, the Chinese Communist Party appears to be making an effort to reassure nervous international corporations that Beijing will not close down their factories again.

Breitbart: DOJ Opted Not to Prosecute Radical U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts
US Attorney for Massachusetts, Rachael Rollins, has not been prosecuted by the Department of Justice (DOJ) despite the Office of the Inspector General determining she lied under oath. A report by the watchdog finds that Rollins attempted to influence a 2021 district attorney’s race and subsequently lied during an investigation. Rollins had provided negative information to a newspaper about the candidate who won, as well as disclosing private DOJ information about him.
