Washington Free Beacon: 'Playing Hide the Ball': Hunter Biden's Mistress Asks Court To Jail Him Over Failure To Provide Financial Disclosures
Hunter Biden's former mistress is accusing him of criminal contempt for not disclosing his investment and income records as ordered by the court in their custody dispute. She claims that he is intentionally hiding his financial information as he seeks to reduce his child support payments and block their daughter from taking his name. Roberts's legal team is threatening to call Biden's high-profile business associates to court if the child support dispute goes to trial, further adding to his legal challenges, which already include a federal tax probe and a House Oversight Committee investigation into potential influence-peddling by the Biden family.
Breitbart: ABC's 'Grey's Anatomy' Season Finale Goes All-In for Abortion, Climate Change Fear Mongering
Grey's Anatomy's season finale heavily focused on climate change fear-mongering and pro-abortion messages, with Dr. Miranda Bailey being awarded for her work on teaching patients to get abortions. Ellen Pompeo's character, Dr. Meredith Grey, delivered a speech on how women are forced to carry unwanted pregnancies in half of the states, which was later proven to be a lie. Despite constant pro-abortion messaging and climate change plot lines, the show continues to be popular among viewers.
Daily Wire: ‘A Matrix Of Lies’; RFK, Jr. Blasts The FBI’s ‘Mockery’ Of Democracy To ‘Destroy’ A Presidential Candidate
Democratic hopeful Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is making waves in the 2024 election with his willingness to challenge the D.C. establishment and the media. In his latest campaign statement, RFK Jr. denounces the FBI's interference in the 2016 election and warns of the dangers of a non-existent press holding the government accountable. He also calls out the complicity of the media in perpetuating lies and smears about President Trump, comparing it to their role in the Iraq War. RFK Jr. stands at odds with the Democratic Party on various issues like Ukraine, COVID, and the government's relationship with Big Business.
American Thinker: Observations from Sen. Tim Scott’s presidential candidacy announcement
Senator Tim Scott announced his presidential campaign, giving a standard conservative speech that focused on his values. While he is deeply religious and believes in a post-racial America, he did not touch upon transgenderism.

Breitbart: Democrat Sen. Tom Carper Will Not Seek Reelection, Will Retire at End of Current Term
Four-term Democrat Senator Tom Carper of Delaware announced his retirement at the end of his current term and will not seek reelection in 2024. Carper's retirement could lead to a crowded primary for the safe Democratic seat during a presidential election year. Rep. Lisa Blunt Rochester, who worked for Carper when he was in the House, is one of the favorites to take his place but has not officially announced her candidacy yet. Twenty-three of the 33 Senate seats up for reelection in 2024 are held by Democrats, meaning they need to ensure no more than two seats flip to maintain control.
The Epoch Times: FBI Whistleblower Says FBI Retaliation Left His Family Homeless
FBI agent Garret O'Boyle says he was retaliated against by the bureau after being moved to Virginia from Kansas and left his family homeless. O'Boyle states that he was placed on unpaid suspension after reporting for duty on his first day with the agency in Virginia. The FBI denied the claims and said that it will not retaliate against individuals who make protected whistleblower disclosures. O'Boyle described the FBI's leadership as being filled with "rot" and management as a "ten-headed snake." The House Judiciary’s Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government released a report claiming that O’Boyle was reassigned to a different department because he held conservative beliefs. Democrats dismissed O’Boyle's testimony and Rep. Stacey Plaskett described the hearing as being another attempt by Republicans to assist former President Donald Trump.
Red State: NV Gov Joe Lombardo Loads up Veto Pen Against Democrats' Gun Laws, More Battles to Come
Governor Joe Lombardo (R) of Nevada is using his veto power to push back against the Democratic majority in the final stretch of the legislative session. On Monday, Lombardo vetoed three pieces of gun legislation put forward by Democrats citing constitutional infringements on the rights of Nevadans. The legislation would have disallowed firearm possession by people under the age of 21, prohibited "ghost guns," and revoked firearm rights for people who have committed a "hate crime." Lombardo's veto indicates that more vetoes may be forthcoming.
Additionally, Lombardo threatened to veto the Democrats' version of a school safety bill and has expressed disapproval with a fentanyl bill put forward by Senate Majority Leader Nicole Cannizzaro (D). Lombardo's campaign promises on school choice and election reform have also been stymied by the Democratic majority. Tensions are high, and if the state budget is not to Lombardo's satisfaction, he is likely to veto it, which could set up a special legislative session.
Breitbart: Nolte: Two Fake Civil Rights Groups Issue Travel Warnings About Florida
Far-left NAACP and fake Hispanic “civil rights” group LULAC are using scare tactics to stop black and Hispanic Americans from moving to Florida respectively, issuing travel advisories that the state is openly hostile towards them. The NAACP accuses Florida Governor Ron DeSantis of trying to erase black history and restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in schools, while the exact wording of LULAC President Garcia’s statement is unclear. Experts suggest this is in part due to concerns over loss of black and Hispanic voters in closely contested swing states such as Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania.
Breitbart: Brennan, Clapper Knew Russian Collusion Was a Hoax But Cooked Up Spy Letter
Intelligence officials knew about Clinton's hoax involving Trump and Russia in 2016, but tried to create a new scheme to blame Russia and help Biden in 2020 elections, says a recently released report. The report shows that the involvement of Clinton was unknown until October 2017, and despite this intelligence, the FBI conducted an investigation into the Trump campaign. In 2020, Clapper and Brennan made a new scheme to help Biden win the election by claiming that the Hunter Biden laptop story was Russian disinformation, according to the report. The committee’s next steps are unclear.
National Review: It’s Not Sexist When We Do It: Politico Suddenly Fine with Lady Macbeth Analogies
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is expected to launch a 2024 presidential campaign soon, causing another outbreak of "DeSantis Derangement Syndrome" among liberals and the media. Politico published a hit piece on Casey DeSantis, the governor's wife, comparing her to the power-hungry Shakespearean character Lady Macbeth. MSNBC's Joy Reid criticized the governor for signing a bill banning gender-affirming care for minors, calling it the "most authoritarian thing that government can do."

Spectator USA: Is anyone to blame for Italy’s devastating floods?
Italian prime minister Meloni cut short her presence at the G7 summit to visit the flood devastated Romagna in northeast Italy. Climate change activists poured black vegetable dye into the Trevi Fountain in Rome to protest government support for fossil fuels. The floods have left vast areas of agricultural land completely or partially closed and caused the evacuation of 36,000 people. The left is blaming Meloni for the floods, but flood defenses are the bigger issue. The Emilia-Romagna region, a leftist stronghold, has failed to provide sound flood defenses, and not enough reservoirs were built to receive flood water in case of emergencies.

The Blaze: Indiana Republicans successfully get pervert-founded sex institute defunded
Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb signed a budget bill that prevented taxpayer funds from supporting the Kinsey Institute, which was founded by a pervert who distorted perceptions of sexual behaviour. The bill forbids the state's portion of Indiana University's appropriated funds to be used “to pay for the administration, operation, or programs of the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender, and Reproduction.” The institute was established by Alfred C. Kinsey, a zoologist who published two contentious explanations of sexuality, which claimed that the sexual behaviours of thousands of Americans were diverse. In addition to including the histories of imprisoned sex offenders, Kinsey is also believed to have used data from a prolific paedophile.

The Epoch Times: Moscow Blames ‘Ukrainian Saboteurs’ for Attack in Western Belgorod Region
Ukrainian saboteurs attacked Russia's Belgorod region, injuring three people and causing material damage. Russia blames the attack on Ukraine and launched a counter-terrorism operation in the area. Ukraine denies involvement, attributing it to “violent resistance movements” opposed to Russian President Vladimir Putin. Moscow claims the attack is a diversion from Bakhmut and reducing the political impact of Ukraine’s loss of Artyomovsk. It is not the first time such an incident has occurred, and there have been several attacks inside Russian territory since Moscow launched its invasion of Ukraine in February last year.
Human Events: German chancellor says Ukraine ‘cannot currently meet’ NATO

Pew Research Center’s report stated that most Americans view Russia as an enemy and NATO-Ukraine relations positively, but expressed mixed confidence in prominent NATO leaders.

Red State: Blinken Backs Down, Gives House GOP Access to Docs on Afghanistan Debacle Under Threat of Contempt
Republicans have scored a victory against the Biden Administration's silence on critical issues. After months of stonewalling, House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman, Michael McCaul, will finally have access to documents regarding the withdrawal of US servicemembers from Afghanistan. This move follows McCaul's threat to hit Secretary of State Antony Blinken with a contempt of Congress charge. The document in question is a dissent cable from the US Embassy in Kabul, detailing State Department officials' misgivings regarding President Biden’s withdrawal plans. McCaul will be accompanied by the ranking member of the Foreign Affairs Committee, Rep. Greg Meeks, D-N.Y., to view the document in full, albeit with redacted names.
Washington Free Beacon: TikTok Sues Montana Over State Ban
Chinese-owned app TikTok has filed a lawsuit against Montana challenging the state's new ban on the short-video platform, which violates the First Amendment rights of the company and its users. The suit filed in US District Court in Montana also claims that the ban, which is set to take effect on Jan. 1, is pre-empted by federal law. Montana's new law outlaws TikTok operating in the state and for app stores from Google and Apple to offer the app within its borders.

The Epoch Times: PBO Stands By Report That 'Clean Fuel Regulations' Will Hurt Canadian Households Financially
The Parliamentary Budget Officer (PBO) stands by his analysis of Canada’s Clean Fuel Regulations (CFR), which finds that lower-income households will bear a greater burden in terms of disposable income due to increased costs associated with the policy. Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault criticized the PBO’s modelling approach, saying that it overlooked the costs of climate change. Under the emissions reduction plan, federal fuel tax charge is set to rise from $65 to $170 per tonne of carbon dioxide by 2030, while the CFR, which aims to reduce carbon emissions from fossil fuels, will lead to a 17 cents increase in gasoline prices and a 16 cents increase in diesel prices by 2030. The CFR will have a projected cost of up to $231 for lower-income households and up to $1,008 for higher-income households in 2030.
Forbes: Yellen Doubles Down On June 1 Deadline To Avert Default—As Debt Ceiling Talks Drag On
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has reiterated her plea for Congress to raise the federal debt ceiling by June 1 in a letter to House Speaker Kevin McCarthy. Yellen warns that it is "highly likely" the government will run out of funds to pay its bills if Congress fails to do so, causing severe consequences for American families and the country's global leadership position. Talks between McCarthy and President Joe Biden to resolve the debt ceiling standoff have remained tense as Democrats reject significant spending cuts proposed by House Republicans.

Forbes: North Carolina Senate Passes Nation’s Lowest Flat Tax, Blocks Cap-And-Trade
North Carolina's Senate passed a new budget that would accelerate income tax relief, reducing the state income tax rate to 2.49% by the end of this decade. The Democrat governor's executive budget proposal was rejected, and the phaseout of the state's corporate tax will continue and is expected to be completed by 2030.
The House and Senate-passed budgets protect against the imposition of cap-and-trade programs for carbon emissions that would lead to higher gas and utility bills. Critics point out that cap-and-trade has the same impact as a carbon tax, as seen in California. In North Carolina, Governor Cooper's administration voiced support for the Transportation and Climate Initiative (TCI), a proposed regional cap-and-trade program focused on transportation emissions, despite its inflationary effects on the price of gas. Despite Cooper's opposition, North Carolina's new budget could see the state with the lowest flat income tax rate in the nation and no corporate tax by the end of the decade.
Breitbart: McCarthy, Biden to Meet About Debt Ceiling as Default Looms
President Biden and House Speaker McCarthy met to discuss the debt ceiling as the US approaches default on its $31.3tn debt. The meeting follows Rep. Graves accusing the Biden administration of not negotiating in good faith. Negotiations resumed on Sunday after a Republican offer was considered a "big step back." 63% of Americans want the debt ceiling to be raised only if lawmakers include terms on reducing the federal budget deficit. Only 19% want it lifted without conditions. House Republicans have passed the Limit, Save, Grow Act of 2023, but it requires spending cuts outside of Social Security and Medicare.

The Epoch Times: British Military: Over 60 Percent of Personnel Facing Serious Sex-Crime Charges Walk Free
Analysis by The Epoch Times reveals that just 54 out of 145 British military personnel accused of serious sexual crimes have been convicted. The figures, taken from official Ministry of Defence (MoD) court martial records, show that as many as 10 members of the military face court each month on sex offences, including sexual assault, rape and indecent behaviour. Only a few are found guilty, however, with some even being allowed to stay in their regiments or units after being reprimanded. Those accused range in rank from privates right up to the most senior servicemen in the defence forces, which include the army, navy, and Royal Air Force (RAF). The shocking figures appear to back concerns from whistleblowers that rape cases should be moved out of the court martial system. Conservative MP Sarah Atherton, chairwoman of the Defence Sub-Committee on Women in the Armed Forces, said the submissions reinforce the group’s view that cases of rape and sexual assault within the service should be handled by civilian courts.

The Federalist Papers: Inciting Robbery: Proposed New San Francisco Law Would Prohibit Drawing a Weapon to Intimidate Would Be Thieves
San Francisco is experiencing a concerning upward trend in property and violent crimes, with larceny theft leading the charge. This surge in lawlessness has seemingly found support among some city leaders who have advocated for a softer approach to crime, promoting policies to reduce sentences and limiting the use of bail. A supervisor is pushing for a law that would prevent security guards from drawing their firearms in defense of property, drawing criticism from some, including prominent tech industry voices like Joe Lonsdale and Elon Musk. Small-business owners express concerns about the increasing instances of disruptive behavior and lack of police response, while Dean Preston’s proposals seem to neglect the very businesses that are victims of the escalating thefts and crimes.
