Red State: It Would Appear Kevin McCarthy Somehow Did Worse Than Doing Nothing at All on the Debt Ceiling
Kevin McCarthy, true to form for Republican leadership, seems to have taken a winning position and turned it into a full retreat on the issues that matter most. Conservatives are upset about the fact that McCarthy's bill that includes a debt ceiling increase doesn't limit the debt increase. What’s more, the White House didn't have to give up much in exchange for the increase, making Republicans look worse in opposition.
American Thinker: Liz Cheney booed by grads who turned their chairs backwards at Colorado college commencement
Former Rep. Liz Cheney was booed and criticized by left-leaning students during her commencement speech at Colorado College. Despite supporting her criticisms of former President Trump and Republican colleagues who perpetuated false claims about the 2020 election, some students turned their chairs and wrote messages on their caps calling her 'racist, imperialist, transphobic, war monger.' Cheney has faced criticism from both sides of the political spectrum for her outspokenness against Trump and her own party. (, )
Forbes: Russia Issues Arrest Warrant For Lindsey Graham Over Ukraine Support
Russia issued an arrest warrant for Senator Lindsey Graham after an edited video of him discussing military assistance with Ukrainian President Volodymr Zelenskyy sparked outrage in Russia. The video shows Graham saying "the Russians are dying" and referring to U.S. military assistance to Ukraine as "the best money we’ve ever spent." However, a longer video showed that the initial video released by Ukraine on Friday had shortened Graham's actual remarks. The Russian Investigative Committee has announced a criminal inquiry against Graham, while the senator has said he will continue to stand with Ukraine's freedom.

PJ Media: Dylan Mulvaney Identifies as Author, Appears To Be Writing a Book
TikTok influencer Dylan Mulvaney hints at writing a book, causing woke publishers to engage in bidding wars. Mulvaney gained fame for identifying as transgender and acting like a seven-year-old girl. Bud Light faced backlash for partnering with Mulvaney, experiencing a 30% sales decline, and Target similarly faces financial consequences for promoting transgender ideology through its “pride collection.” LGBTQ community backlash against efforts to mitigate the boycott may extend its impact.

American Thinker: Just in time for Memorial Day, Hanoi Jane is back from the dead
Jane Fonda blames "white men" for all of society's problems, saying they need to be arrested and jailed. She claims no climate crisis would exist if not for racism and patriarchy. Fonda's campaign against "white men" seems disingenuous considering she has been with three husbands and multiple flings that have likely been "white men." In the past, she denied being anti-war also, but her words are now very much "anti-soldier." The men she denounces have fought and died for causes bigger than themselves and deserve honor, not denigration.

Breitbart: Expert: Convert Empty San Francisco Buildings to 'Waterslides'
Experts are considering what to do with vacant skyscrapers and commercial real estate in downtown San Francisco as tech industry commuters leave the city and crime drives retail businesses out. One suggestion is repurposing commercial real estate as residential housing or recreational facilities. Local historian Chris Carlsson even suggested converting buildings into waterslides, amusement parks, or giant pinball arcades. San Francisco is also looking into paying reparations to long-term black residents, despite the fact that California entered the Union as a free state in 1850 and the city is facing a significant budget deficit.
Human Events: NICOLE RUSSELL: Bring patriotism back this Memorial Day
Memorial Day's importance is being lost as Americans prioritize other things like LGBTQ+ Pride and brands that aren't ethical. The nation must honor those who died for the freedom Americans enjoy and appreciate capitalism, which allows them to function and flourish . Brands should show patriotism at the same level as Pride month and teach consumers to honor the fallen this Memorial Day. It's a chance to know the names of those fallen and wear patriotism with the same pride as Pride month.
Fox News: Uganda greenlights death penalty for 'aggravated homosexuality' in controversial crackdown
Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni signed into law a bill that specifically cracks down on sex offences committed by homosexuals, including death penalty punishments for "aggravated homosexuality". The UN Human Rights Office has criticized the "draconian and discriminatory anti-gay bill" while LGBTQ rights campaigners argue such legislation is unnecessary given homosexuality has long been illegal under colonial-era law. President Biden's administration has reportedly floated the idea of reducing health aid to Uganda following the legislation's passing due to its harmful impact on public health and HIV response.

Euromaidan Press: Denmark commits additional 2.6 billion USD in military aid to Ukraine amid critical war stage
Denmark is set to increase military aid to Ukraine by an additional $2.6 billion over this year and the next. The move comes as Ukraine is navigating a critical period amid an intense war, with high levels of aggression from the Russian side.

The increased contribution helps Denmark meet NATO's requirement for member states to spend 2% of their GDP on defense.
Fox News: Russia issues Lindsey Graham arrest warrant after Ukraine comments
Sen. Lindsey Graham faces an arrest warrant in Russia for praising US support for Ukraine’s defense and noting that Russians are dying as Ukraine fights for its freedom. Russia's Interior Ministry put out the warrant after the senator made the comments while visiting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Moscow responded to the edited video released by Zelenskyy's office, which caused outrage in Russia.
Russian forces launched 54 Iranian-made drones at Kyiv ahead of the anniversary of its founding Sunday. Ukraine shot down 52 of them with US-made Patriot missile systems. Two deaths were reported during the attack. Senator Graham reacted to his arrest warrant saying it was a badge of honor and offering to submit to the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court if Russia did the same.

Breitbart: Sign Up Bonus? Any Country Joining Russian 'Union' Can Have Nukes
Belarus President invites other nations to join security pact with Russia and receive nuclear weapons in return. NATO's aid to Ukraine has led to Russia deploying nuclear weapons to European Union-bordering Belarus, the first time since the Cold War.

A Chinese barge carrier was detained in Johor, Malaysia for illegal anchoring, with a found cannon shell believed to be from a British warship wreck found on board. The ship was carrying 32 crew members from China and Bangladesh.

Fox News: Wedding drama erupts as bride's anger at guest who wore white turns 'blue'
A bride who paid to have her niece's white dress photoshopped to light blue has caused a family row. The newlywed believed the lacy, knee-length outfit worn by her 16-year-old niece looked too much like a wedding dress. She tried to ignore it but it bugged her so much she decided on taking action after seeing the photos. However, when she posted the final picture, her sister-in-law blamed her for "body-shaming her" daughter without asking first. Many who responded to the bride’s Reddit AITA ("Am I the a--hole") thread took her side, saying the niece's actions were highly inappropriate and that etiquette rules exist to prevent this sort of situation.
