Newsbusters: MRC VP Schneider Gives Chilling Warning About Left’s Plans for AI
Leftists plan to use AI to eliminate conservative thought and replace it with their own narrative, warns MRC Business Vice President Dan Schneider. The algorithm used in AI is written by Big Tech oligarchs who have a history of censoring conservative speech, making censorship even easier. Schneider emphasizes the need for action and calls on Congress to act immediately to prevent the destruction of opposition and the very idea America was founded on. Google co-founder Larry Page has already stated his aim for AI to be a "digital god" to give "right responses" not truths. Conservatives are under attack, so contact representatives to demand transparency on AI and equal footing for conservatives.
The Epoch Times: GOP Congressman Threatens Motion to End McCarthy's Speakership
Rep. Dan Bishop (R-N.C.) threatened to remove Kevin McCarthy as speaker of the House if McCarthy agreed to the debt ceiling agreement with President Joe Biden. One member of Congress can file a motion to vacate the chair, forcing a vote on removing McCarthy. Bishop did not say if he would file the motion and said he would not make the decision alone. Freedom Caucus members criticized the deal for not cutting spending and increasing the debt. Progressives expressed concerns about the welfare reforms in the deal that increase work requirements. The House will vote on the bill on May 31.
The Epoch Times: Here’s What’s in the Debt Ceiling Deal and Who Benefits
Congress reached a deal to raise the nation’s debt ceiling, ending a months-long disagreement between President Joe Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy. Republicans and Democrats each emerged from the negotiations claiming victory. Under the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023, the debt ceiling will be suspended through Jan. 1, 2025. The bill also includes spending cuts and other provisions aimed at reducing federal spending, but some analysts say it merely puts off the next debt-ceiling battle for 19 months. The bill reduces non-defense discretionary spending in 2024 by about $1 billion, or about 0.2 percent, and creates a lead agency to manage the process of obtaining permits to drill for oil and natural gas, while taking back $30 billion of unspent COVID relief money from the states. The Republican-controlled House had passed the Limit, Save, Grow Act, which included the GOP’s starting offer of a debt limit increase of $1.5 trillion until the end of March 2024, among other provisions.
Breitbart: Far-Left Atlantic Brands Elon Musk's Twitter a 'Far Right Social Network'
Elon Musk's Twitter is now a right-wing social network due to his opposition to far-left wokeness, becoming indistinguishable from conservative-owned sites such as Truth Social and Parler, according to an Atlantic journalist. The journalist characterizes Musk's opposition to wokeness as a sign of his far-right views, but Musk describes himself as moderate and has considered backing centrist candidates. The Atlantic is owned by Laurene Powell Jobs, who also funds activist press that tries to launder left-wing propaganda through local news outlets and is said to have a close relationship with Kamala Harris.
The Epoch Times: Alberta Election 2023: UCP and NDP Major Wins and Losses

Forbes: Right-Wing Lawmaker Pushes To Remove McCarthy As Speaker Over Debt Ceiling Deal
Rep. Dan Bishop threatened to bring forward a "motion to vacate" to remove House Speaker Kevin McCarthy following backlash over the debt ceiling legislation, becoming the first conservative member to propose such an action. Bishop is among the group of at least 20 Republicans who stated they would vote against the bill because it does not satisfy their demands for federal budget cuts and Biden's policies. While a move to remove McCarthy is unlikely to gain the majority approval required, some representatives have not ruled out supporting it, including Reps. Chip Roy and Paul Gosar.
Red State: AOC Has Meltdown at Elon Over Parody Account That Gets Her Ratioed Into Next Week
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is upset over a parody Twitter account using her name, warning her followers to "be careful of what you see." The account releases false policy statements and gains spread, with AOC assessing with her team how to move forward. However, her reaction is seen as hilarious by some, as her real account often says things close to parody, and her comment about assessing the account only makes her look silly. Elon Musk also responded to the account, causing AOC to flip out once again, but Musk's response shows how bad AOC is at this game. Overall, AOC's reaction gives the parody account more material to mock, and she should focus on doing her job instead of being concerned about people mocking her.
The Epoch Times: Comey Says Durham Report Shows FBI Made 'Mistakes,' but Bureau Did 2016 'The Right Way'
Former FBI Director James Comey defended the bureau's investigation into former President Donald Trump, despite a recent report by Special Counsel John Durham, which found that the FBI had opened its probe into Trump using unverified information. Durham's report also highlighted the FBI's failures in the Clinton-funded dossier on Trump and allegations of corruption within the bureau. Comey acknowledged that mistakes were made but claimed that the FBI was still competent and independent. However, Comey was one of the former top FBI officials who refused to talk to Durham during the investigation.
Breitbart: Poll: Majority of Republicans Say Trump Is Best Chance to Defeat Biden
Republican voters prefer Donald Trump as the best candidate to defeat President Joe Biden in the 2024 election, according to a Monmouth poll. Sixty-three percent of respondents said that Trump is the strongest candidate, with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis trailing by 24 points at just 19 percent. Trump’s approval rate among Republicans was 77 percent, with DeSantis at 73 percent. The poll surveyed 655 Republican voters earlier this year and has a margin of error of 5.5 percent. DeSantis’s approval rating had previously been higher, but has dropped in recent months.
Daily Wire: Jamaal Bowman Says Fossil Fuels Are Causing Bad Weather – And People Have Thoughts
Congressman Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) claims that fossil fuels cause extreme weather events on CNN with Wolf Blitzer. He suggests an expedited move to clean, renewable energy to prevent these events. Governor Brian Kemp (R-GA) argues that eliminating drilling for fossil fuels would bankrupt the American energy sector and cause hard-working Americans to struggle with 40-year-high inflation. Critics take to Twitter, with some mocking Bowman's claims and others arguing that cutting out fossil fuels without adequate infrastructure and technology already in place would be a massive disaster.

The American Mind: Cancelling History
Middlebury College is being sued by the estate of John Mead, a deceased former governor of Vermont, for removing his family name from the campus chapel. Mead donated money to build the chapel on the condition that his family name be preserved on the building. However, the college removed the name due to Mead's past advocacy for the sterilization of "degenerates and defectives." Middlebury's lawyers deny any breach of contract and claim that the college has a duty to "grow" with the times. The case is one of several in which benefactors or their descendants have objected to institutions renaming buildings or removing names of historical figures who held controversial views.
Breitbart: Nolte: The CNN of Beers — Bud Light Sales Crash 30% Week of May 20
Bud Light is experiencing a massive decrease in sales, dropping 29.5% compared to last year, following a public relations debacle over "partnering" with a man who mocks women by dressing in drag. Year-over-year sales during the week ending May 6 dropped 23.6%. If things don't improve, Anheuser-Busch Inbev may have to change the name of the brand. The value of the company has also greatly declined since the start of April, with their stock dropping from $66 to $54. The public is not accepting of these perversions and corporations pushing acceptance are losing billions ( ).

Daily Wire: Beijing Snubs U.S., Rejects Meeting Between Top Military Officials
China rejected a request from the Pentagon for a meeting between top military officials, snubbing the Biden administration. The Department of Defense had offered a meeting between U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Chinese Defense Minister Li Shangfu on the sidelines of the Shangri-La Dialogue security forum in Singapore, but Beijing rejected it. China said that the U.S. needed to "correct its mistaken actions" before a meeting between Austin and Li could take place. The U.S. hopes that maintaining military-to-military communication between Washington and Beijing will ensure that competition does not veer into conflict.
Daily Wire: An Afghan Interpreter’s Harrowing Journey To Rescue Wife After Failed Biden Withdrawal
Prince Wafa risked everything to help Americans fight the Taliban in Afghanistan and was rewarded with a coveted Special Immigrant Visa. After he moved to the US, Wafa returned to Afghanistan to marry his wife. Following the botched US military pullout in 2019, Wafa was unsuccessful in getting his wife a visa to join him in the US and decided to travel back to Afghanistan himself. Disguising himself as a local Afghan, Wafa crossed the border into Afghanistan, but he was subsequently left stranded as all civilian flights to and from Kabul were suspended. Despite this, he managed to reunite with his family just days before the fall of Kabul to the Taliban.
After connecting with the NGO Vulnerable Peoples Project, Wafa and his wife were eventually evacuated from Afghanistan. In spite of his disappointment with the handling of the US military withdrawal, Wafa continued to provide ground support to aid other vulnerable Afghan families in need. Reflecting on his journey, Wafa shared a profound view of marriage and sacrifice, stating that if he ever had to risk his life again, he would do so proudly for his country and family.
National Review: The Corner: Some Conservative Hawks Mobilize against Debt-Ceiling Deal’s Defense-Spending Provisions
The recent debt-limit deal has conservative foreign-policy hawks concerned about apparent caps on defense spending. The proposal would codify President Biden’s $886 billion defense-budget proposal for the coming year, which Republican lawmakers have criticized as a de facto cut to military spending. The agreement keeps non-defense spending roughly flat for fiscal 2024, increases by 1% in 2025, and has non-enforceable funding targets after 2025.

Forbes: Author Post: Will Near Term Clinical Trial Results Transform Treatment Options For Sarcoma Patients?
Drug development success rates remain lowest for solid tumors, particularly sarcoma, with no new drugs approved in decades. Chemotherapy drug doxorubicin, approved in 1975, is still the most effective option for advanced sarcoma patients, with a meagre 17% response rate and significant toxicities. Companies, such as TRACON Pharmaceuticals and Boehringer Ingelheim, are rising to the challenge with clinical trials for new drugs targeting sarcoma subtypes, such as envafolimab and BI 907828, respectively, while Inhibrx is studying a precision drug candidate, INBRX-109, in chondrosarcoma. These clinical trials offer hope for an unmet need in the oncology space.

Fox News: San Francisco paper says arguments against biological males in female sports have ‘little basis in science’
The San Francisco Chronicle published stories defending transgender athletes in response to "widespread hate campaigns". The paper argued that there is little scientific evidence to support the claim that trans athletes have an unfair advantage in sports, citing two small studies from the UK that found no significant advantage. Youth sports experts also noted that the benefits of athletics for youth outweigh any potential unfairness. However, critics argue that outlets like NPR and NBC News are pushing a false narrative by claiming there is limited scientific research to demonstrate an advantage for trans athletes.

The Epoch Times: Experts Urge US Not to Use Weapons-Grade Uranium in Experiment
Experts have written a letter to the US Department of Energy requesting it not use bomb-grade nuclear fuel in an experiment on the Molten Chloride Reactor Experiment (MCRE) at the Idaho National Laboratory. The experiment is expected to use over 600 kg of 93% enriched weapons-grade uranium, which can be used to make a nuclear weapon and could violate America’s long-standing policy against using such fuel. The authors argued that the experiment would undermine American policy on minimising the use of highly-enriched uranium (HEU). If America were to set up a facility using HEU, it could attract accusations of hypocrisy as Washington has asked other nations to eliminate HEU fuel from new and existing reactors.

The Epoch Times: ANALYSIS: China Hoodwinking the World via Technologically Advanced Coal Mines
China is investing in modernizing its coal mines with the latest technologies, defying Western nations' increasing dependence on renewable energy sources. The country aims to digitize all mines by 2035, using cameras, sensors and 5G across sites such as the "smart mine" in Shaanxi province, boosting coal output by nearly a third. The Global Energy Monitor warns that coal power construction, new project announcements and permissions "accelerated dramatically" in China last year, with 106 GW of new coal power projects permitted--equivalent to two large coal-fired power stations per week. The country accounts for roughly 20% of global emissions and fulfills pledges to cut emissions from the Paris Climate Agreement when it suits its wider goal of being the world's top superpower.
