Breitbart: Dem Rep. Jayapal: Biden, Dems Have to Worry About Progressive Caucus Not Supporting Debt Ceiling Deal
Rep. Pramila Jayapal warns that President Biden and moderate Democrats should be concerned about gaining support from progressive causes for the debt ceiling deal. Jayapal has not yet seen the text and is hesitant to discuss in-principle or frameworks. She urges everyone to focus on the legislative text as the American people are on the brink of default. In response to Jake Tapper's question, Jayapal states that Democrats at the White House need to worry about whether or not the progressive caucus will support the deal.
Breitbart: McCarthy: Jeffries Said There’s 'Not One Thing in the Bill for Democrats'
McCarthy says House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries told him that Democrats don’t see “one thing” in the debt ceiling deal in their favor. Despite this, McCarthy believes that there will still be a lot of Democrats who vote for the bill because it is agreed upon and a "good bill."
The New American: Is "Meaningful Reform" Enough to End FISA's Assault on the Fourth Amendment? - The New American
Representative Chris Stewart (R-Utah) says that FISA's expansive surveillance authority would not be reauthorized without "meaningful reform." FISA contains potential violations of the Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution and enables warrantless surveillance. FISA-authorized surveillance is challenged in the secretive Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court and the policies which permit data sharing and grant authority to the NSA and FISA court disregard individual-based human and civil rights. Americans are threatened with constant surveillance and the government's never-blinking eye.

Fox News: Weddings can be extra special if couples do this with their vows, expert advises
With wedding season underway, speech expert Heidi Ellert-McDermott advised couples to avoid clichés and keep vows to a maximum of three minutes or 500 words. Memorable vows should convey not only why the other person was attracted to their partner, but also how they had made their life more meaningful and communicated their hopes for the future. Ellert-McDermott also recommended memorizing vows and never reading them off a phone during the ceremony. Couples can take a variety of directions with their vows, as long as their overall tone is the same, she noted.

Breitbart: Newt Gingrich on Debt Deal -- ‘Dramatic Victory’
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich applauded the debt limit deal forged by House Republicans with President Joe Biden. Gingrich praised Speaker McCarthy and House Republicans for the historic reductions in spending, reforms to lift people out of poverty into the workforce, and no new taxes and government programs. McCarthy announced the deal on Saturday night, which includes raising the debt ceiling through the next two years, in exchange for some of Republicans' desired spending cuts and concessions. The House will vote on the legislation on Wednesday, giving the Senate time to consider it before the June 5 deadline when the United States could default on its debt obligations.
Forbes: Scotland’s Latest Attempt To Kill Its Own Economy
Edinburgh's International Festival, which pulled in $450,000 visitors in 2019, is expected to suffer due to restrictive regulations on Airbnb-like rentals in Scotland. The new rule which requires licenses for short-term rentals will result in a shortage of festival accommodation, with many renters unable to obtain licenses for apartments in tenement buildings with shared stairways. Short-term accommodation has already shrunk, leading to rental rates of up to $42,000 per month in August. The rule has backfired, favoring wealthy townhouse owners who are more likely to be able to rent out their flats while financially less affluent tenement dwellers may see a shortfall in their income.
The Federalist Papers: Nation's Largest Insurer Refuses to Insure Homes In California Any Longer, Cites Three Reasons
State Farm, the largest personal lines insurer in America, announced an immediate halt on the sale of new home insurance policies in California due to the state's high wildfire risks, construction cost inflation outpacing inflation, a challenging reinsurance market, and increasing catastrophe exposure. While existing policies remain in effect for now, affected homeowners may face non-renewal of policies if conditions worsen, resulting in difficulty finding new coverage. This decision exacerbates economic burdens in California, where homeowners already suffer from high housing expenses.
Red State: MSNBC Throws the Goalposts Into the Ocean to Defend Biden on the Debt Ceiling Deal
Despite previously vowing not to negotiate on the debt ceiling, Joe Biden caved and a deal was reached to raise it. MSNBC spin suggests Biden “won” the compromise, which is gaslighting and moving goalposts. Republicans did win the messaging battle, but without real spending reform, the nation is still set to go over the cliff.

The late New York pastor Timothy Keller was an influential figure in the Christian faith. As founder of the city’s Redeemer Presbyterian Church, Keller preached that the gospel meant people were flawed but loved. He was renowned for his intellect but remained humble, with one congregant describing him as the epitome of what a Christian leader should be.
