Forbes: Elon Musk Tweets Support For Tim Scott Again, Raising Questions About Whether He’s Backing Away From DeSantis
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has expressed his support for Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.)’s presidential campaign for the second time in a week. Musk retweeted a post by Scott featuring a video of his announcement speech from South Carolina and recently praised Scott’s campaign ad that denounces victimhood and promotes individual responsibility. Musk previously said he would support Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for the 2024 GOP nomination but has also expressed support for Republicans in the past, including House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.). Ellison, a backer of Musk’s Twitter takeover, is also likely to double his contributions to a super PAC that supported Scott’s 2022 senatorial campaign.
National Review: Jayapal Predicts Backlash ‘in the Streets’ If Biden Agrees to Spending Cuts in Debt-Ceiling Negotiations
Representative Pramila Jayapal warns of leftist protests if Biden agrees to spending cuts as part of negotiations to raise the US debt ceiling. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen set June 1 as the deadline to raise the debt ceiling, but Republicans demand spending cuts while the Biden administration insists on a “clean” increase. The U.S. risks a debt downgrade as its debt/GDP ratio grows, with federal spending projected to be 23.7% of GDP this fiscal year, up from 21% in 2019; Biden proposed a deal that increases taxes but does not cut spending.
PJ Media: Meghan Markle's "Women of Vision" Award Is a Phony Token for the Who's Who of Woke Politics
Leftist organization, the Ms. Foundation, awarded Meghan Markle with the "Women of Vision" award, which critics say is just a popularity award for leftist mouthpieces and activists on the far-left side of the political spectrum. The website shows a commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, but promotes abortion and removes responsibility from women. Markle's award seems cynical, as it was given to her after she performed royal duties for only 15 months, and she's not very active in any causes besides her own foundation. The only awards out there are so biased and one-sided they don’t even acknowledge another view exists, let alone acknowledge someone on the other side excelled at something.
Daily Wire: New Revelations Made In Federal Criminal Investigation Into Trump’s Handling Of Classified Docs: Reports
Federal prosecutors have subpoenaed the Trump Organization for information about the ex-President's business dealings in seven countries. The subpoena seeks records of "licensing and development dealings" in China, France, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, and Oman. The former President did not conduct any foreign business while in office, but made a deal with a Saudi-based real estate company for a project in Oman just before announcing his third presidential campaign last fall. Prosecutors are also interested in records relating to Trump's relationship with the Saudi-owned golf league LIV Golf.
Red State: AOC Picks Fight With Ted Cruz on 'Racist History' of Democrat Party, He Finishes It
The NAACP issued a travel advisory for Florida, claiming Governor Ron DeSantis is hostile towards the black community and against black history - an accusation Republicans have called "bizarre" and untrue. Senator Ted Cruz disagreed with the Democrat party's support for the advisory and highlighted the party's historical racism towards the black community, including founding the KKK and writing Jim Crow laws. He also noted that the supposed party switch after the Civil Rights Act didn't happen until the late 1980s/early 1990s and was based more on economic opportunity and national security than racism.

Breitbart: GOP AGs to Biden Ed Dept: Protect Women’s Sports from Trans Agenda
Republican attorneys general are fighting against Joe Biden’s Education Secretary’s attempt to allow transgenders to compete in women’s sports, arguing that Title IX protects biological females in school. Biden’s LGBT agenda involves issuing a notice of proposed rulemaking to interpret Title IX of the Civil Rights Act to say that schools must allow students to join the athletic teams of whatever gender they claim to identify with, however, 18 states in the US have banned transgenders in women's sports or have begun initiatives to do so. This legal challenge could end up in the Supreme Court, which would create a “circuit split” that would require Supreme Court action to resolve nationwide.
Red State: It Sure Sounds Like a Democrat House Member Just Threatened Violence if Biden Caves on the Debt Ceiling
Democrats are upset with Joe Biden for considering concessions on the debt ceiling, while Republicans have already passed a plan to avoid default. Democrats like Sen. Fetterman and Rep. Ocasio-Cortez want the President to use the 14th Amendment, while Rep. Jayapal threatens a "huge backlash" in the streets if spending cuts are agreed to .
Newsbusters: 'Most Insecure Man In Public Life:' Muy Macho Scarborough Speaking Of Trump—Or Himself?
Joe Scarborough called Donald Trump "the most insecure man in public life" on Morning Joe today, but he and his co-host Willie Geist were accused of hypocrisy by detractors, who say that Joe himself has engaged in much the same behavior. Geist had dismissed Trump twice referring to his lawyer in the E. Jean Carroll case calling him "sir" as a sign of insecurity and merely another excuse to tell another "sir story." Meanwhile, Scarborough's own record of bragging about his toughness and hyper-patriotic masculinity were called into question, including his telling Capitol tourists he'd make them "eat" their cameras.
Townhall: Tara Palmeri DeSantis Hit Unravels as Video of Her ‘Interrogation’ Is Revealed
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is expected to announce his bid for the White House soon, causing a surge of hit pieces from the media. These reports, including one from TIME Magazine, have been comically off-target, describing DeSantis as "more dangerous" than Trump and Darth Vader-like for leading and legislating. One reporter, Tara Palmeri, even implied that the governor is using weight loss drug Ozempic. However, she was later exposed for contriving a scenario in which DeSantis was supposedly "running away" from her. This dysfunctional behavior from the press only makes DeSantis look better by comparison.

Red State: Russia Evacuates Nuclear Weapons Stockpile as 'Dissident' Invasion of Russia Continues
Two Ukrainian-backed Russian partisan groups launched an attack on Russian territory, taking control of at least five border settlements and clashing with Russian security forces. The two groups, the Freedom of Russia Legion and the Russian Volunteer Corps, consist of ethnic Russians and defectors from the Russian Army and can muster over 10,000 men. The operation is based in the Kharkiv Oblast and targets the Russian Belgorod Oblast, and has been described as a raid rather than a full-scale invasion. The attack is also seen as an information operation designed to make Putin's regime look weak and is likely to create further demand for Russian Army units to be deployed along the Ukrainian frontier.
Breitbart: Counter-Invasion or Insurgency? Fighting Breaks Out in Russia
Fighting has erupted in the Belgorod border region, with Russia accusing Ukraine of launching a "subversive group" and hoisting "Free Russia" flags. Ukraine denies involvement, instead suggesting the actions are being carried out by Russian anti-Putin freedom fighters. While the nature of the groups and their links to Ukraine remains unclear, Western allies' growing supply of advanced weapons to the country, and promises that they will not be used to counter-invade Russia themselves, may escalate the war.

Front Page Magazine: ACLU Sues Florida on Behalf of China
The ACLU has a long history of supporting leftist totalitarianism, according to a 1934 article by its founder, Roger Nash Baldwin. Despite claims to the contrary, the organization has not changed its values and now prioritizes advancing the "dictatorship of the proles" in the US and working against American interests at the behest of the People's Republic of China. The ACLU is partnering with Chinese-American groups to file a lawsuit against Florida's discriminatory property law for most Chinese citizens and citizens of other countries, which is set to take effect in 2023. The plaintiffs are represented by the ACLU, DeHeng Law Offices, the Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund, and the Chinese American Legal Defense Alliance.

Breitbart: Rep. Chris Smith Plans Congressional Hearing on W.H.O. Pandemic Accord Talks
Rep. Chris Smith (R-NJ) will chair a Congressional hearing on the negotiations for a pandemic accord at the World Health Organization (W.H.O.). The pandemic accord is an international legal document that could bind American public health efforts beholden to the United Nations, potentially eroding sovereignty. The W.H.O. is hosting its annual World Health Assembly this week, where it sets a budget and priorities for the next year. The hearing is necessary as the Biden administration has not been transparent about what it is committing to bringing America into.
World Health Organization (W.H.O.) Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has urged the adoption of a pandemic accord, a treaty or international legal document, since 2021 following the onset of the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic. The hearing is necessary as Rep. Chris Smith (R-NJ) warned that the pandemic accord could erode American sovereignty over its healthcare infrastructure. The Biden administration's moves regarding the International Health Regulations also increased concerns surrounding the negotiations around the pandemic accord.

Jesse Osborne, a convicted school shooter who killed his father and a child and injured three others in a school, has asked a judge to reduce his life sentence so that he may be released from prison eventually. Osborne was 14 years old when he committed the crimes. Prosecutors stated that Osborne's intention was to hurt more people, but his gun repeatedly jammed. Osborne has been serving two life sentences after pleading guilty to the crimes. The judge requested a detailed report from the defense expert for review, and prosecutors were given at least 10 days to respond.

LeBron James may retire from basketball at age 38 after his Lakers were swept out of the playoffs. Though he is contracted to play next season for $46.9 million, James has hinted at retirement after a long, successful career.

James' decision may also be influenced by his son's recent commitment to play basketball at USC.

Breitbart: BBC Unveils Disinformation Unit to Monitor ‘Conspiracy Theories’
The BBC has announced the creation of a new "disinformation" unit with about 60 journalists to counter alleged conspiracy theories and fake news. The team will offer fact-checking, video verification, and counter disinformation. BBC News CEO Deborah Turness said that BBC Verify will bring "forensic investigative skills and open source intelligence." The move is seen as an attempt to prove the value of the broadcaster to politicians in Westminster, who have repeatedly expressed a desire to monitor the spread of 'disinformation' on the internet. Elon Musk recently slammed the BBC's Covid misinformation during an interview. A poll in 2019 found that nearly two-thirds of the British public thought that the BBC was biased, despite its charter requiring neutrality.
