Human Events: Climate activists attempt to storm the stage during Shell’s
shareholder meeting in London
Climate protesters disrupted Shell's yearly shareholder meeting in London, preventing the start for an hour. The activists, mainly from Greenpeace and Extinction Rebellion, accused Shell of profiting at the expense of the environment. However, the behavior is unlikely to stop Shell's plans or prompt change. The company spokesperson said Shell aims to become carbon net zero by 2050 and its shareholders may vote on setting more ambitious emissions goals by 2030, although the board has rejected the proposition. Scientists warn greenhouse gas emissions must drop by 43% before 2030 to meet the Paris Agreement goal of keeping global warming under 2C above pre-industrial levels.
The Federalist: Judge Greenlights Suit Seeking ERIC Voter Data In Alaska
A district court has allowed a lawsuit by the Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) to acquire reports about potential deceased registrants on the voter rolls in Alaska to proceed. PILF alleges that the Electronic Registration Information Center's (ERIC) reports are records subject to the disclosure provision of the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA). The court ruled that the NVRA's disclosure provision does not categorically exclude the ERIC data from public disclosure and PILF's claim in its complaint is effective. The organization is permitted to move forward with its lawsuit to acquire data reports.
PJ Media: Tucker Carlson Responds to Draft Tucker PAC

Breitbart: Exclusive — Tim Scott on Left’s ‘Culture of Grievance’: ‘I Destroy that Lie'
Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) announced his presidential campaign with a "Made in America Agenda," challenging the Democratic narrative about racism in America. Scott disapproves of their lies that "if you're black or brown, your future is grievance not greatness," and plans to show struggling Americans that they can better their lives with the right policies and values. His goal is to share the good news of America and to show that his personal story as an African American conservative who has lived the American dream can disprove leftist lies. The far left fears his economic vision for working-class Americans, as it would take power away from them and let people make their choices and live their lives.
Fox News: Michigan judge dismisses neglect charges against former Flint official relating to city's water crisis
Charges against former Flint official Howard Croft dismissed in lead-in-water scandal.

Croft was the public works director when state-appointed managers caused lead to contaminate the system.
Breitbart: Report: President Biden Yet Again Incorrectly Claims Son Beau Died in Iraq
Joe Biden mistakenly claimed that his son Beau died in the Iraq War while speaking to US servicemen in Japan. The President made the same false claim last year during a speech in Colorado to designate Camp Hale as a national monument. Although Beau did serve in Iraq, he died of brain cancer in 2015. This and other gaffes have fueled concerns about Biden's mental health and age, with a Yahoo News/YouGov poll showing that a strong majority of Americans have doubts about his mental acuity and ability to serve as President.
The Epoch Times: Tucker Carlson Reveals Whether He's Running for President in 2024
Tucker Carlson's attorney sent a cease-and-desist letter to the Draft Tucker PAC to prevent it from using fundraising schemes to convince Carlson to run for president in 2024. The attorney stated that Tucker "will not run for President in 2024 under any circumstances," and called such efforts damaging and fraudulent. The PAC, which has raised $212 so far, has ceased all activities on Carlson's behalf and promised to donate the money raised to a charity or back to the donors. Carlson has always denied wanting to run for public office and has disavowed the PAC's activities.
National Review: The Corner: Why Isn’t the Press Screaming for a Biden Special Counsel?
The New York Times reports "no evidence of wrongdoing by President Biden" after a congressional committee presents evidence of the Biden family's peddling of political influence. This showcases the two-tiered justice system that evolves seamlessly from our doggedly partisan media. If this were Trump, the press would have a lead story and the outrage in Washington would be palpable.
Forbes: Prince Harry Loses Legal Fight For Police Protection In U.K. Days After ‘Near Catastrophic’ NYC Paparazzi Car Chase
Prince Harry lost his request for a judicial review into the British government's decision to reject his offer to privately pay for police protection. The government revoked taxpayer-funded security for Harry when he stopped working as a senior royal and moved to the U.S. Harry's lawyers argued that he should have been given an exception and that the law allows people to privately pay for protective police services, but the Court disagreed, saying the government was not wrong to reject his offer.

Daily Wire: Woke In Content, Jewish In Form: On The Failings Of Jewish Education In America
Jewish day schools in North America have failed to teach Jewish and Israel education. Graduates tend to become anti-Zionist Jews and join movements such as Students for Justice in Palestine, Jewish Voice for Peace, J Street, and IfNotNow. Ideologies of gender and racial equity are favored over Jewish particularism. Jewish educators have dropped the ball on promoting Jewish identity due to discomfort with Jewish nationalism. Jewish youth surrenders the Land of Israel in order to "restore" justice and human rights to the Palestinians. The answer is to address discomfort with Jewish nationalism, remind American Jews that they are an indigenous people from the Land of Israel, and inspire Jewish youth in the idea of Zionism as a national Jewish movement that restores power to the Jewish people in their homeland.
The Blaze: Horowitz: DeSantis has instilled fear in leftist culture warriors by enforcement, not just talk
The rule of law is dead in the US, with unelected edicts and ignored laws dominating. Florida is bucking this trend, with Governor DeSantis enforcing laws on issues from sexuality in schools to grooming rallies. This includes the passing of HB-1438, allowing the state to fine or revoke licenses if children attend adult live events, resulting in the cancellation of the Tampa Pride on the River event, amongst others. Other red states need to follow Florida’s lead and have elected leaders willing to enforce their laws.

Germany’s Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) is looking into leads that implicate Ukraine in the explosions which destroyed a key energy pipeline in the Baltic Sea last year. Claims have been made by outlets that link a yacht called Andromeda, rented from a Baltic port at the time of the blasts and subsequently discovered to have explosives residue onboard, to the attacks. The rented yacht, rented by Ukrainians according to reports, was allegedly at sea in the area, including a port call close to the site of the Nord Stream explosion, in the days around the underwater saboteur event.
Euromaidan Press: Essay: Ukraine reclaims its place in Europe in the wake of Russia’s failing invasion
History is a collection of facts and events that are interpreted and classified, with some facts being highlighted and others being ignored or dismissed. An imperial mindset leads to the belief in ethnic exclusivity and the rewriting of history to suit the needs of imperial hegemony, as seen in the Russians' distorted geopolitical vision. The unfolding of history in Ukraine today is causing significant changes for the future, and even the past, allowing for a return to truth and the proof of Ukraine's European past.
