Breitbart: Coons: 'It'll Be Tough' to Do Budget Process with Cuts in Debt Limit Bill
Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) said that the debt limit bill encourages Congress to follow the appropriations process, but it will be difficult to do so with the reduction in spending that comes with the bipartisan agreement. Despite this, he believes the bill makes positive progress on reducing the deficit, with some of his priorities included such as continuing to support veterans and protecting incentives for a cleaner energy economy. Coons also noted that both parties have shown an enthusiasm for spending in different ways, and that reducing deficits should be a bipartisan effort.
Townhall: Only One Republican Candidate Gets Results
Trump's success in repairing the Wollman Rink and completing it ahead of schedule had led to speculation that he could be successful in implementing infrastructure reform as president. However, during his presidency, he failed to make the necessary reforms, relying instead on purported experts to get things done. Trump's typical response was to denounce his appointees, the highly talented and utterly incompetent alike, and seek out yet other experts. His opponent for the 2024 nomination, DeSantis, on the other hand, had a mastery of details and bureaucratic processes, producing less economic damage. Republican voters now have a choice between a former president with mixed and sometimes dismaying results and a state governor with a demonstrated capacity for getting results.
Red State: Trump Says at Fox News Town Hall He'd Need Only Six Months to Turn Country Around
Donald Trump appeared at a Fox News Town Hall with Sean Hannity, where he promised to turn things around in America within six months if he was reelected. He blamed the poor state of the country on President Biden's handling of energy, specifically his decision to empty the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to lower oil prices before the 2022 midterms. Trump also promised to close the border and drill for energy, saying that within six months, everything could be fixed. The crowd was enthusiastic, erupting into a "We Love Trump" chant during the commercial break.
Breitbart: Poll: Majority Republicans Believe Trump Has Better Chance to Win 2024 Election than DeSantis
Most Republicans believe former President Donald Trump has a better chance of winning the 2024 election than Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, according to an LX News/YouGov poll. 59% of Republicans selected Trump, while 27% chose DeSantis. Among independents, Trump had a slight edge with 34% selecting him, compared to 23% for DeSantis. A significant 35% Democrats believed DeSantis was more likely to win than Trump, while 27% selected Trump.
The American Spectator: The Real Cost of the Debt-Ceiling Deal
President Biden and House Speaker McCarthy negotiated a $4 trillion deficit spending deal, which will increase the national debt to $35 trillion by 2025. Federal student loans have led to higher costs and reduced quality outcomes in colleges, while progressives seek to terminate loan repayment requirements. Federal spending contributes to a sense of entitlement and work requirements have expanded exemptions, leading to a decline in workforce participation. The excessive spending creates high inflation and interest rates, crowds out small business lending, and undermines private investment, while China continues to invest in factories and technologies. High taxes punish working middle-class Americans, and government interventions create a higher risk of a financial crisis.
Breitbart: Trump on Biden Cognitive Concerns: I Don't Think You Should Joke About It
Trump asked Sean Hannity to stop joking about President Biden's cognitive abilities during a Fox News town hall. Hannity had repeatedly asked Trump if he thought Biden was physically and mentally up to the job, but Trump had been reluctant to comment. Trump explained that he called Hannity and asked him not to joke about it, as it was a serious problem. Hannity agreed and said he now realizes how serious it is.
The American Spectator: End American Gerontocracy
The recent falls of President Joe Biden and Senator Dianne Feinstein highlight America's "gerontocracy" problem, with a significant number of senators and judges being well over 60 years old. This raises concerns about their ability to make decisions on issues such as war and peace. Furthermore, the failure of long-term vision by these baby boomers makes it difficult for younger generations to advance their cutting-edge solutions that address present-day problems. Private entities should impose mandatory retirement ages and there should be an amendment to the Constitution to mandate retirement ages for all constitutional oath-taking actors in the legislative, executive, and judicial branches.

PJ Media: Welcome to Major League Baseball's Struggle Sessions
Toronto Blue Jays' Anthony Bass apologizes for promoting boycotts against Bud Light and Target due to their association with Pride campaigns. The apology has been criticized for being similar to contemporary struggle sessions of confessing wrongthink and promising to reform through ideological conformity. Blue Jays Manager John Schneider indicated that there would be more steps to follow than just the apology. The incident is seen by some as an attempt to transform common positions on faith and biological truths into blasphemous utterances and to chill speech. Athletes are discouraged from entering cultural and political battles.
Townhall: The Culture War Has Moved to a New Phase
Left-wing activists have been dominating American culture and businesses with their radical political agendas. Corporate America has been occupied by executives who push big companies to the left. Recently, Anheuser-Busch, the iconic American beer brand, hired a transgender activist and faced a mass-scale boycott from right-leaning people that damaged its sales and stocks. The normal people's revolt is now moving on to other brands like Target, Kohl's, and Disney. The right needs to push back before there will be a price to pay.

Spectator USA: Did Shakespeare write his plays?
The Shakespeare authorship debate has long been a topic of controversy, with skeptics suggesting that William Shakespeare of Stratford-upon-Avon did not write the works attributed to him. However, historical evidence shows that Shakespeare was indeed the author, and many scholars prefer not to engage in the debate. Elizabeth Winkler's book, Shakespeare Was a Woman and Other Heresies, explores this controversy and the anti-Stratfordian movement, but ultimately fails to offer a convincing alternative candidate. The authorship question highlights a debate about expertise and authority, and Winkler's book can be seen as an example of anti-expert movements.

The American Spectator: The Legendary Fight for Free Speech in Jarrett’s Trial of the Century
Fox News legal and political analyst Gregg Jarrett's new bestseller, The Trial of the Century, tells the gripping story of the famous free-speech showdown in 1925 in Dayton, Tennessee, revolving around teacher John Scopes and his right to teach evolution in school. The trial was a nationally focused showdown between the fundamentalist William Jennings Bryan and Clarence Darrow, defender of free speech. Jarrett argues that although Darrow lost the trial, he won the more important and enduring argument against imposing limits that suffocate intellectual independence and frustrate progress.

Fox News: GREG GUTFELD: Blue Jays' Anthony Bass' apology is a hot, steaming pile of crap
Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Anthony Bass faces blow back and is forced to apologize after posting a pro-Christian video on Instagram supporting boycotts of Target and Bud Light. The video is considered hurtful to the Pride Community, which includes his friends and family. Christians are expected to remain silent on trans propaganda or face ridicule and backlash. This event shows how protected celebrations of identity create division and sew fake sins to scare everyone else into obedience.
Townhall: WOTUS Victory, Potomac River Recovery, & New Outdoor Recreation Bill
The US Supreme Court reverses decision in Sackett vs. EPA case, ruling in favor of property rights and against the EPA's overreach. Democrats and the Biden administration's WOTUS rule have met with bipartisan opposition, with a North Dakota judge blocking the WOTUS rule from going into effect in 24 states, only for Biden to veto the block. The Potomac River ecosystem is thriving, with a "B" grade from the Potomac Conservancy, but is still plagued by polluted urban runoff and legacy pollution. Recovery efforts are underway and could lead to a fully swimmable and fishable river by 2032. The America's Outdoor Recreation Act is currently making its way through Congress, with a bipartisan push to increase and improve outdoor recreation opportunities across the nation while improving infrastructure and driving economic growth in rural communities. Firearms, hunting, and fishing expenses fund the bulk of conservation funding, including the proposed recreation package.
