Breitbart: UK Deep State Threaten to Strike over Migrant Deportation Plans
PCS union is threatening industrial action in response to the UK government's plan to deport illegal boat migrants to Rwanda. Thousands of civil servants at the Home Office and Border Force, part of Britain's permanent government, are urging non-compliance with the measures to tackle the illegal boat migrant crisis to enter the UK. Last year the government struck a deal with Rwanda to house asylum seekers while their claims are considered, as opposed to providing hotel accommodation in Britain. PCS claims the plan would be illegal and is demanding that the government dismantle the existing hostile environment.
Washington Free Beacon: Lawmakers Condemn NYC Mayor For Housing Illegal Immigrants In Public Schools
Lawmakers condemn New York City for using public schools to house illegal immigrants, accusing the Biden administration of punishing children for its failure to control the southern border. The resolution, introduced by Republican Reps. Mariannette Miller-Meeks and Brandon Williams, states that this move impedes children's access to safe education and recreation. Leaders are struggling to control the influx of illegal immigrants, and the resolution argues that turning schools into housing centers compromises their ability to educate students and keep them safe. Republicans aim to counteract the Biden administration's border policies as the influx of illegal aliens continues to strain city resources.

The Right Scoop: CBS News claims Feds have SMOKING GUN on Trump docs investigation
Federal investigators have obtained an audio recording of former President Donald Trump admitting to holding onto a classified Pentagon document after leaving the White House. Trump's spokesperson responded by calling the investigation a "political persecution."
Newsbusters: PolitiFact Torches Straw Man To Rate DeSantis 'False' On Alleged Book Banning
PolitiFact rated Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' claim that Florida has not banned any books as "false", but the rating is overzealous and based on a straw man. DeSantis was talking about literal book bans, not whether specific books were available in school libraries. Crowley and Sherman, the authors of the article, then go on to provide quotes from DeSantis about age-appropriate books in schools, which doesn't address the governor's original claim. The authors conclude that DeSantis's argument hinges on county school districts, but school districts are making book decisions to comply with state law. However, experts cited by the authors agree that a ban is "the removal of a book based on a person of group’s objection". PolitiFact has targeted DeSantis 44 times, whereas Democratic equivalent Gavin Newsom has been checked only 26 times.
PJ Media: Churchill Was Right: The Older You Get, the More Conservative You Become
As people age, they tend to become more conservative in their politics, as recent US elections have shown. While the left tries to argue that millennials are defying this trend, data suggests that the shift to the right is most significant among older "young" voters who came of age in a different political era. Many issues that drew young voters to the Democrats in previous years may no longer be as relevant, and the Republican party has even reversed its disadvantage on some issues. Conversely, the shift to the right is more modest among younger voters who came of age in the era of Black Lives Matter, Bernie Sanders, and Donald J. Trump.
Washington Free Beacon: WATCH: PBS Asks Stacey Abrams How She Can Write Novels While Saving Democracy
Stacey Abrams, who lost two gubernatorial races in Georgia, discussed her writing process with PBS News. Despite her demanding schedule as a public servant, Abrams views writing as important as saving democracy. She has written several novels, including a new one about a young Supreme Court clerk fighting injustices, and finds killing off characters enjoyable.
Spectator USA: The DeSantis family Iowa hoedown
Political insiders discuss the 2024 presidential race in the Thunderdome-themed podcast The District. Episode one sees discussion of Ron DeSantis's Iowa launch, Donald Trump’s Covid revisionism, Chris Christie, Mike Pence, and Democratic candidates. Politico reports that DeSantis is settling into an approach with his wife, Casey, to personalize their family image as young parents. Meanwhile, Trump appears to be defending his past Covid response in Florida, which merely emphasizes the successes of the DeSantis administration.
Elsewhere, Chris Christie has entered the 2024 presidential race with a target on Trump's back. He brings his brash communication skills to a field often devoid of them, but there is an air of nihilism to his run. In tech news, RFK Jr. has been the subject of a recent YouTube deletion, raising suspicions about "Big Tech" and corporate power ahead of 2024.

Daily Wire: Watchdog Says Taxpayer-Funded Hospitals In Conservative States Are Transing Kids
Legal group AFL is demanding information from five taxpayer-funded hospitals regarding gender transition procedures on children in Republican-led states. The Freedom of Information Act requests were sent to hospitals in Georgia, Iowa, Ohio, Utah, and Virginia, where hospitals offer gender surgeries on minors. The legal group is questioning why conservative states were using taxpayer funds to offer such procedures, citing the example of Sweden, where puberty blockers have been halted in most clinics. The targets include the University of Iowa’s LGBTQ and Questioning Clinic and the University of Virginia Health’s Youth Transgender Clinic, among others.
Fox News: Dozens of kids vanish in Cleveland area as police probe alarming trend
Nearly 30 juveniles aged 12-17 were reported missing in a two-week span in May 2023 in Cleveland, Ohio, which is an unprecedented number, according to Newburgh Heights Police Chief John Majoy. Many of the cases involve runaway teenagers who are naive and in danger of predators. The lack of photos of the missing teens only adds to the difficulty for law enforcement, as their stories are not shared on social media, which is a crucial tool in finding missing persons .
Cleveland has a unique organization called Cleveland Missing, founded by Sylvia Colon and her cousin Gina DeJesus, which assists families of missing persons with support, searches, and coping mechanisms. Disbelief and guilt are just some of the emotions that families of missing persons experience, according to Colon. It is recommended to provide photographs of the missing teens to help law enforcement and to get the word out on social media to aid the search .

American Thinker: You can't spell 'blasphemy' without LA
The Los Angeles Dodgers plan to honor the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a militant group of drag queens who mock Catholics, at their annual Gay Pride Night. The Dodgers initially disinvited the drag queens but later reinvited them and apologized, planning to award them "the Dodgers' Community Hero Award for service to the LGBTQIA2S Community." The archdiocese has called on Catholics to stand against bigotry and hate, but no mention has been made of the Dodgers, who underscored anti-Catholic bigotry. No person of faith should support any organization that ridicules heritage, and Americans should respond by closing their wallets.

National Review: The Corner: After Debt-Ceiling Deal, U.S. Still Faces $18.8 Trillion in Deficits Over the Decade
The debt-ceiling deal passed by the House and set for Senate approval will still leave the nation with over $18 trillion in cumulative deficits over the next decade, with projected debt of $46.7 trillion by 2033. Speaker Kevin McCarthy's hopes for a balanced budget were unrealistic given the narrow majority in the House and Democratic-controlled Senate. The only way to get on a responsible fiscal trajectory is to overhaul entitlements, but Republicans have shown no resolve to do so.

Flag And Cross: 'The Chosen' Actors Raise Eyebrows with Responses to LGBT Flag Controversy: 'This Is Not Going to Go Well for You'
Cast members of the TV show "The Chosen" are facing backlash after a promotional video for Season 4 included an image of a small rainbow flag, representing the LGBT movement, being displayed on set. The show's Twitter account responded to criticism by stating that they work with anyone who helps them portray or honor the authentic Jesus, regardless of their beliefs. The response has provoked anger and talk of a possible boycott of the show, with some users calling out the show's unwillingness to stand with its Bible-believing Christian audience against the agenda of rainbow activists.
The Federalist Papers: CNN Writes Glowing Article on Women Marrying Themselves as 'Symbolic Expression of Self-Love'
CNN has reported on women who are marrying themselves, known as "sologamy", in a glowing article which may normalise the bizarre act. CNN spoke to four women who have each married themselves describing it as a "symbolic expression of self-love and an affirmation of a deep, meaningful relationship with one’s self". The article discusses their ceremonies and describes how the women felt beautiful gaining a new confidence. Many people will see this as another attempt to undermine the meaning of marriage.

Fox News: Ozempic, Wegovy and pregnancy risk: What you need to know about the issue
Novo Nordisk's weight-loss medication Wegovy and diabetes medication Ozempic might pose a risk to unborn babies, despite common side effects of appetite loss and nausea. Both drugs contain the semaglutide hormone, and studies have found that when monkeys, rats and rabbits were given semaglutide during pregnancy, they were more likely to experience miscarriages, small fetal size and birth defects. While Ozempic is often used off-label for weight loss, Wegovy was developed specifically for this purpose. Its maker, Novo, has recently had to limit the availability of some starter doses due to increasing demand. The FDA has called for an investigation following reports linking the drugs to miscarriage and other pregnancy problems.
Backpacker: Is DEET Really Your Best Choice? We Explored Your Options for Insect Repellent.
Choose the right insect repellent to stay safe and protected from diseases like Zika, West Nile, and Lyme. DEET is the most well-known and effective repellent, but has a greasy texture and bad smell. Picaridin is equally effective and less toxic, while IR3535 is odorless and less likely to cause skin irritation. Permethrin is a contact repellent for clothing and gear. Herbal and natural remedies like lemon eucalyptus and catnip oil are also available but should be carefully researched for efficacy and EPA approval. Stay safe and protected from insect bites.
The Epoch Times: Repeated COVID-19 Vaccination Weakens Immune System: Study
A new study suggests that multiple doses of the Pfizer or Moderna COVID-19 vaccines actually weaken the immune system, potentially leading to life-threatening conditions such as cancer. The study found that repeated mRNA vaccination leads to an increase in IgG4 levels, which can impair the immune response and make the immune system more susceptible to the COVID-19 spike protein in the vaccines. Researchers noted that vaccines against HIV, malaria, and pertussis also induce production of IgG4. The study also suggests that the weakened immune system caused by repeated vaccination could have potentially serious consequences, including autoimmune diseases, cancer growth, and autoimmune myocarditis in susceptible individuals, as well as vaccinated individuals who get infected suffering from more severe cases of COVID-19.
The Epoch Times: Eating Disorder Helpline Pulls AI Chatbot After It Gives Users 'Harmful' Advice
The National Eating Disorder Association (NEDA) removed an AI chatbot named Tessa, designed to replace its human-run helpline, after discovering it gave “harmful” advice. The decision to replace human staff with AI sparked a planned unionisation of hotline workers, which NEDA apparently tried to suppress. The employees successfully organised the vote, but shortly afterwards were told they were all to be replaced by the chatbot, leading to allegations of “union busting”.

Five suspected members of MS-13, all "noncitizens illegally present in the United States," are facing murder charges in Maryland following the discovery of human remains belonging to missing 15-year-old Limber Lopez Funez earlier this year.

Daily Wire: Popular Trans Activist Injured Female Player During Women’s League Soccer: Report
Transgender activist and biological male athlete Riley Dennis has reportedly been captured on video injuring a female player while competing during a women’s soccer league game in New South Wales, Australia. Dennis has reportedly been the subject of complaints for dominating the semi-professional women’s league, leading all players in goals. The incident reportedly took place during a game between the Inter Lions and the St. George soccer teams on May 21. Dennis plays for the Inter Lions FC.
In recent years, biologically male athletes have been permitted to play in girls’ and women’s sports. For example, two male high school athletes who claim to be female advanced to the California State Preliminary Track and Field Championship last month after competing against girls. In one infamous-now privated YouTube video, the activist claimed dating preferences could be discriminatory. Dennis argued that having a dating preference against individuals who may be transgender, black, or overweight likely comes from inherent bigotry.
Forbes: ESPN Starting A Streaming Service Is The Beginning Of The End Of Cable
ESPN is planning to launch a standalone, direct-to-consumer streaming service, named “Flagship,” amid a decline in cable subscribers, drawing down revenue. The announcement comes after 2.3 million US households canceled their cable subscriptions in 1Q 2023. Whereas ESPN had over 100 million subscribers in 2011, this has dwindled to 74 million. ESPN's announcement follows Bally Sports, the largest regional sports network, filing for bankruptcy protection. AT&T SportsNet also announced that they would be leaving the business for financial reasons. These failures have significant implications for the future of cable.
The Epoch Times: Coach Confirms Lionel Messi's Last Match for PSG This Weekend
Messi will play his final game for PSG in their league finale against Clermont on Saturday, leaving the team he joined two years ago after failing to replicate his previous form.

Some PSG fans have repeatedly whistled his name sarcastically in recent weeks, despite his pretty good statistics. His adventure in France is thus seen as bittersweet by many due to his embodiment of the team’s shortcomings.

Fox News: Hawaii man pleads guilty to picking up Yellowstone bison calf, resulting in its herd rejection, euthanasia
A man from Hawaii pleaded guilty to intentionally disturbing wildlife in Yellowstone National Park by picking up a bison calf, causing the herd to reject it and leading park officials to euthanize it. He was ordered to pay a $500 fine and make a $500 payment to the Yellowstone Forever Wildlife Protection Fund. Human interference with young wildlife can cause animals to shun their offspring and park regulations require people to stay at least 25 yards away from most wildlife for everyone's safety.

Fox News: Kim Cattrall films 'Sex and the City' reboot without seeing Sarah Jessica Parker amid feud: report
Kim Cattrall will make a cameo as Samantha in the "Sex and the City" reboot season two, but will not share screen time with Sarah Jessica Parker due to reported off-camera feud. Cattrall's return seems to have been impacted by her past personal issues with Parker, as the actresses did not interact on set and only had a phone conversation for the scene. Cattrall, who is said to have been in only one scene, allegedly shot it in New York City on March 22, and claims she was never asked to join the reboot in the first place.
Breitbart: Arnold Schwarzenegger: ‘No One Gives a S—t’ About Climate Change
Arnold Schwarzenegger wants to rebrand "global warming" as "pollution" in order to scare people into action. He believes that the term "climate change" is not effective enough. This strategy has been used before by other climate crusaders, such as the Guardian, who updated their style guide to use more dramatic language, such as "climate emergency," instead of "climate change." A study completed by SPARK Neuro also showed that the terms "climate crisis" and "environmental collapse" produce a stronger emotional response than "global warming" or "climate change." While Schwarzenegger may see this as a solution, the fact remains that carbon dioxide (CO2) is not a pollutant and is not harmful to human health. Current levels of CO2 concentration in the environment are lower than they have been during earlier periods in the planet's history, and some experts argue that rising CO2 levels are actually beneficial for humanity and the biosphere.

De Niro celebrated Father's Day simply "with everyone" and quipped about having a new child every year.
The Epoch Times: Drivers Warned as Glasgow’s Low Emission Zone Comes Into Effect
Glasgow has launched Scotland's first low emission zone (LEZ). From April 13, 2023, drivers in the city's centre must comply with emission guidelines or face fines, replicating similar schemes in Bath, Birmingham, and Bristol. Several opposition parties have raised concerns about the policy, which they say will impact on livelihoods and businesses, with non-compliant vehicles unable to enter parts of the centre. There are worries that it will particularly affect the night-time economy whilst it recovers from the coronavirus pandemic or provide difficulties for homeless charities using vehicles to distribute food to vulnerable groups.
