Red State: Dem Senator Slams Supreme Court as a 'Fact Free Zone' That Is Beholden to 'a Bunch of Right-Wing Billionaires'
Senator Sheldon Whitehouse criticized the United States Supreme Court for lacking ethics and being a "fact-free zone" due to the influence of right-wing billionaires. He called for an ethics code and disclosure requirements for judicial nominees, and specifically called out Justice Clarence Thomas for not recusing himself from election-related cases despite his wife's political activities. Former Republican Senator Roy Blunt acknowledged the court's role in providing finality but expressed concern about undermining the court.
The Federalist Papers: Bud Light Selling for Jaw-Dropping Low Price in at Least One Store as Backlash Rages On: Report
Sales of Bud Light have fallen for the sixth straight week, with a boycott led by conservatives responsible for the decline, according to industry sources. Sales volumes declined by 28.4% in the week to 13 May, compared to the previous week's drop of 27.7%. Anheuser-Busch InBev has lost $15.7bn off of its market cap in connection to the boycott. One store has even taken to selling a 24-pack case of the beer for the basement-tier price of $3.49. Critics have linked the boycott to Bud Light's marketing partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney, arguing that the company has abandoned its traditional marketing position.
Fox News: Republicans' work requirements 'obsession' is 'offensive' to poor people,' CNN commentator complains
CNN commentator Ashley Allison finds Republican's obsession with work requirements for social programs like Medicaid and SNAP to be offensive to poor people. Speaking on a panel discussion during "State of the Union," she expressed concerns about a possible backlash from such policies. Allison also questioned if Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy can hold his party together, particularly the members of the Freedom Caucus who have expressed dissatisfaction with the debt ceiling agreement.
According to Allison, McCarthy's agreement to raise the debt ceiling could face opposition from House Republicans, who may demand significant budget cuts and work requirements for social programs. During the panel discussion, she expressed concern about whether McCarthy can hold his party together and avoid relying on Democrats to avoid a default. Allison's comments echo Rep. Pramila Jayapal's criticism of work requirements, saying that it would hurt poor people. The bill is expected to sit for public review for 72 hours before finally coming up for a vote on Wednesday.

The Federalist Papers: Watch: Furious AOC Loses It When Asked What Dems Were Willing to Concede During Debt Talks
Rep. Ocasio-Cortez criticizes President Biden for conceding too much to House Republicans and GOP Speaker Kevin McCarthy in the debt ceiling agreement. Despite her plea falling on deaf ears, she insisted that the only way Kevin McCarthy could gain any Democratic support would be to concede and negotiate. Republican negotiations on the debt ceiling debate have been uncharacteristically united, not fractured. On May 28, McCarthy announced that he had struck a deal on the debt ceiling with Biden in which Biden gave up a long list of concessions. The House will vote on the debt ceiling bill on Wednesday.
