The Free Beacon obtained a copy of the current exam bibliography, detailing the readings required to successfully complete the test.

Ron DeSantis, Florida Governor, has signed a legislation bill to ban DEI programs at public universities, leading to criticism from ESPN's Stephen A. Smith who stated that DeSantis has "lost his damn mind." Smith called out DeSantis for alienating Latinos, Blacks, and women and claimed that the Governor wants to throw away any chance of being re-elected. The bill prevents state funding from paying for DEI programs and also grants university presidents more control over hiring practices. DeSantis has been vocal about his opposition to "woke" influences on education and has also signed legislation granting parents more authority over their children's education.
Newsbusters: Nicolle Wallace Conspiracy-Mongers Trump/Saudi Classified Docs Connection
MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace insinuated on her show that Trump may have leaked classified documents to the Saudis in connection to their sponsoring a golf tournament at his New Jersey course. The theory was based on a Washington Post article reporting that Trump's Mar-a-Lago staffers moved papers the day before the FBI visited to retrieve classified documents. Wallace and her panelists, including former FBI agent Peter Strzok, offered no evidence to support the Saudi theory. This was flagrant conspiracy-mongering.
The conspiracy theory that Trump may have leaked classified documents to the Saudis in connection to their sponsoring a golf tournament at his New Jersey course was promulgated on MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace's show by Wallace and her panelists. They offered no evidence to support their Saudi theory. This was a case of promiscuously propagating ominous innuendo. Reportedly documents were removed from Mar-a-Lago the day before the FBI visited to retrieve classified documents. Strzok and Wallace's panelists questioned why Trump kept repeatedly breaking the law and allegedly maintained these highly classified documents.

Republican representatives downplay the idea that cutting a bipartisan deal on raising the debt ceiling will endanger the position of House Speaker Kevin McCarthy.

National Review: The Corner: The GOP Isn’t Taking the 2024 Senate Primaries Lying Down
Republicans are taking steps to avoid campaign mistakes that resulted in lost Senate seats in 2022. The National Republican Senatorial Committee plans to intervene in party primaries, providing support to preferred candidates, while avoiding political entertainers and outside groups. The NRSC is “optimistic” about recruiting prospects in Montana and West Virginia, and has convinced Governor Jim Justice to take on Senator Joe Manchin, while the Pennsylvania GOP’s senatorial nominee is expected to be former hedge-fund CEO Dave McCormick. The party also hopes its strategy will be more palatable to voters in general elections, and may look similar to its successful approach in 2014.

Lawmakers are requesting Bank of America turn over any documents and communications related to their voluntary cooperation with the FBI, including internal databases of firearms purchase by customers.

Washington Free Beacon: North Dakota's Republican Governor Set To Launch Presidential Bid
North Dakota governor Doug Burgum plans to announce his candidacy for the 2024 presidential race in Fargo on June 7. Burgum, a traditional conservative and successful former software businessman, is expected to focus on the economy and national security and will likely appeal to voters tired of the chaos of Trump.

He enters a crowded Republican field vying to take on President Joe Biden, who is seen as vulnerable amid economic headwinds and low approval ratings.

DeSantis also accused Trump of attacking him from the left and running to the left, in contrast to Trump's conservative approach during his first presidential campaign.

Spectator USA: Daniel Penny is a scapegoat for a failed system
Jordan Neely, a mentally ill homeless man with a history of violent behavior, died on a New York City subway car after being restrained by a Marine veteran. Neely's death has been turned into a symbol of a racist system of law enforcement and has brought attention to the failures of New York's homelessness policy. Neely's confrontation with the ex-Marine, Daniel Penny, stands for the attempted replacement of manly virtues with a dependence on bureaucracy and social workers.
The New American: LGBT Voices Should Not be Given a Platform on the Right
The Left infiltrates and destroys from inside, co-opting institutions and political opposition. Part of their success is elevating controlled opposition, such as National Review, to neutralize the Right. The normalization of LGBT voices within the Right is a nefarious way the Left infiltrates; conservatives must stop giving a platform to those who seek to normalize decadent behavior.

The Federalist Papers: Joe Biden Crushes Left Wing Dreams Over Debt Ceiling Negotiations, Won't Attempt to Invoke 14th Amendment
President Biden has decided against using the 14th Amendment to prevent the US from defaulting on its debt obligations, Deputy Treasury Secretary Wally Adeyemo confirmed on Friday. The amendment would have allowed the President to make payments without seeking congressional authorization; however, both Republicans and Democrats opposed the move. Prominent supporters of invoking the 14th Amendment included constitutional law scholar Laurence Tribe, while opponents compared the move to a "constitutional crisis." Negotiations continue between Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy ahead of the June 1st deadline to raise the debt ceiling.

The Milwaukee plant employees produce parts for locks that are assembled at a factory in Mexico. The Master Lock plant has been hit with de-industrialisation since the 1980s due to US trade policies and globalisation and is not expected to change under the current administration's policies.
Fox News: Steve Forbes says Joe Biden will not be the Democratic nominee: 'They cannot have him running'
Steve Forbes predicts that the state of the economy will cost President Biden the 2024 Democratic nomination due to inflation, poor wages, and a feeling that the country is adrift. 83% of voters feel the economy is "only fair/poor." Almost half of American voters feel Biden's policies are hurting them.
Despite an aggressive interest-rate hike campaign by the Federal Reserve, inflation rose again in April, indicating that strong underlying price pressures continue to burden millions of Americans. Congress and the White House are engaged in negotiations over the national debt ceiling, with fears over the economic consequences of default or downgrade growing. Biden is struggling to maintain approval from the American public in light of the economic challenges.

Forbes: Investing In A Feature Film For A Reasonable Reason
The decision to finance an independent feature film may seem risky, but there are some potential benefits that may make it worth considering. Investing in a movie can provide bragging rights and memorable experiences, as well as credits that may add credibility to future projects. In addition, cost-saving measures can result in more production value for the dollar, increasing the chances of repayment from the investment. However, it's important to remember that passion often outweighs rational thought when it comes to investing in a film, and investors should be prepared for unexpected challenges.

U.K. parents who killed their 10-month-old son after an abusive campaign have been sentenced to life in prison.

The Epoch Times: Los Angeles Returns to COVID-Era ‘Zero Cash Bail’ After Court Ruling
Los Angeles reinstates its "zero bail" policy for nonviolent misdemeanors and felonies.

There is a class-action lawsuit against Los Angeles County, city, the LAPD, the LASD, and the state's attorney general for their alleged unconstitutional "wealth-based detention system." Police departments in Los Angeles County are largely impacted by this ruling.

Forbes: Did Immanuel Quickley’s Playoff Performance Cost Him A $100 Million Contract?
Immanuel Quickley's third season was a roller coaster of performance. His hot streak at the end of the season impressed many NBA watchers, but his poor postseason led some to wonder whether the Knicks will extend a contract worth over $100 million. Quickley struggled at the beginning of the season, with stats confirming that he was not providing the spark his team needed. But starting in December, the tide turned, and Quickley ended the season as the 3rd best player on the team with a net rating of 6.9. Despite this strong ending, Quickley struggled in the playoffs and the question remains whether he can be an indispensable part of a championship-winning team. The Knicks will need to decide whether to pay him as a starter if they want to retain his services.

The Epoch Times: Huge Sierra Snowpack Throws Frozen Wrench Into Campers’ Plans
Heavy snow in California's Sierra Nevada mountains is causing headaches for local campers. With the snowpack this deep, they are finding their favourite sites closed, adding to the problem of it being late in the season. Effectively, the snow is making access impossible, meaning that many are having to resort to last-minute camping reserveations elsewhere, so causing turmoil among established arrangements. These closures are also affecting businesses which rely on the season to sell their goods and services.
Fox News: Damaged yacht among 2 dozen vessels targeted by rogue orca whale pod this year
Killer whales have been attacking boats off the coast of Spain for several years, with the latest incident recorded on a yacht in the Strait of Gibraltar. The Atlantic Orca Working Group has found that a small group of around 35 Iberian orcas have been targeting boats as they pursue red tuna in waters near the western coast of the Iberian Peninsula, with no known cases of attacks on swimmers. The incidents are puzzling and rare, even enticingly odd, according to biologist Alfredo López. While 13 of the individual whales involved are young, supporting the hypothesis that they are playing, and two are adult, Lopez suggested that the "orca culture" transmits information to others may explain the odd behavior .

Flights under two-and-a-half hours that can be replaced by trains should be scrapped and some routes have already been canceled due to high carbon emissions. European airlines are exploring options to reduce carbon emissions, including renewing their fleets, increasing use of sustainable aviation fuel, and partnering with national rail companies. The push for carbon reduction is leading towards Chinese-style social credit systems that track and assign carbon scores to various activities.
