Former Trump White House Aide Publishes Hunter Biden Laptop Photos: Now They're on a Website Anyone Can Access
Former Trump White House aide Garrett Ziegler has uploaded thousands of images from Hunter Biden's abandoned laptop to a website publicly available for viewing. Ziegler claims the website will provide transparency and truth about the Bidens but says the images are not entirely salacious and include photos that reflect the Bidens in a good light. Nude photos have been redacted, and sensitive information such as Social Security and banking numbers have also been blacked out. The website, BidenLaptopMedia.com, contains approximately 98% of the images from the "laptop from hell."

WATCH: Trump's Response to Biden's Fall Shows Big Difference Between the Two
Biden fell at Air Force commencement but media downplays it unlike when Trump walked down a ramp slowly and was heavily scrutinized by mainstream media. Biden mocked Trump's ramp walk but has had multiple falls himself. Biden is incoherent and constantly needs note cards to remember things, polls against Trump are plunging. Trump adjusted to the slippery ramp but Biden mocks him instead of being concerned about his health. Trump responds to Biden's fall with concern and humor. Biden needs to retire.

RFK Jr. Defends New Hampshire 'First-in-Nation' Primary Status
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. criticized the Democratic National Committee’s decision to remove New Hampshire from the first-in-the-nation primary status during a speech before the New Hampshire State Senate. Kennedy, who is running against President Joe Biden in the Democratic primary and is the son of the late Sen. Robert Kennedy, opposes the DNC’s plan to demote Iowa and New Hampshire in the 2024 presidential primary calendar. Kennedy sees New Hampshire as playing a critical role in vetting candidates and supports a real democracy and election transparency in the state. He has filed the paperwork to run in the 2024 presidential race and has made multiple campaign stops across the country.


Foreign Policy: Senegal’s Controversial Trial
Senegal’s Controversial Trial
Senegal opposition leader Ousmane Sonko has been convicted of "corrupting youth" charges weeks ahead of the country's election next year, which could prohibit him from running. Sonko's supporters believe the charges, which include the rape of a 20-year-old woman that he was acquitted of, are political and meant to eliminate opposition. He received a 2-year prison sentence and was not allowed to appeal the decision. Senegal's constitution enshrines two-term presidential limits, yet current President Macky Sall has refused to confirm that he won't attempt to run for a third term, raising concerns about the resilience of its democratic institutions. The conviction has sparked new unrest in the country, with Sonko's party urging the army to take part in ongoing protests.

The Epoch Times: ‘Discrepancies and Irregularities’ Still Plague Michigan Election Practices
‘Discrepancies and Irregularities’ Still Plague Michigan Election Practices
Nonpartisan nonprofit Election Integrity Force (EIF) is calling out Michigan's Secretary of State’s office and the Michigan Bureau of Elections for violating the law by altering voter registration and voter history records and leaving names of dead people on the voter registration rolls. The organization conducted a partial recount of the results of two 2022 statewide ballot proposals, which discovered that 59% of precincts where it looked at the results of Proposal 3 were either uncountable or the recounted totals did not match the original official vote totals. During the recount of the results of Proposal 2, in 47 precincts spanning four counties, 70% of those precincts were either uncountable or had recounted vote totals that did not match the original official totals.

Activists in Michigan are taking action regarding record discrepancies in voters' records by using local law enforcement, county prosecutors, and citizen grand juries to go after state election officials who violate the law. The most common discrepancies include differing voter ID numbers for the same person and people being recorded on the state list as living in and voting from an inaccurate address. Some voters have discovered that the state records list them as living in a county in which they do not reside or as having voted in a municipality they were not living in during an election. Macomb County resident Michael Butz has filed a criminal complaint against the Michigan Secretary of State’s office and the state Bureau of Elections, alleging that they have violated state and federal laws by not accurately preserving his personal voting records.

The Federalist Papers: Soros Will Find It Hard to Claim Antisemitism as New Group Rises Against Him
Soros Will Find It Hard to Claim Antisemitism as New Group Rises Against Him
A new group called "Jews Against Soros" has been formed to urge people to stop supporting Soros and his various organizations that seek to undermine America and Western democracy. The group, created by Newsweek editor Josh Hammer and conservative activist Will Scharf, is a "grassroots coalition of Jews who oppose George Soros's radical left-wing agenda." The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) has also criticized Soros and his "long history of backing anti-Israel groups" in the past. Soros has spent over $128 million in donations for the recent midterm elections in the US to elect extreme left-wingers to office and has spent $131 million between 2016 and 2020 to influence 253 media groups to push his agenda. One of his campaigns has been to elect left-wing, anti-police, and soft-on-crime prosecutors to U.S. and county attorney positions all across the country.

Watch: Here's the Moment Trump Learns of Biden's Fall, Proves He's Not Who the Media Says He Is
Former President Donald Trump showed a caring and self-deprecating side in his reaction to news of Biden's fall at the Air Force Academy, which was not covered by major networks. While Trump has been painted as angry and aggressive by establishment media, he has repeatedly shown himself to be thoughtful and human in moments of empathy towards political opponents. Ironically, Biden had previously mocked Trump's own ramp walk, but Trump was able to laugh at himself over the incident, illustrating the stark contrast between media portrayals and the reality of his character.


The Epoch Times: State Pension Funds Defy Anti-ESG Laws When Voting Their Shares, Watchdog Charges
State Pension Funds Defy Anti-ESG Laws When Voting Their Shares, Watchdog Charges
Despite recent laws in states like Florida and Ohio banning the use of municipal dollars for political causes, fund managers are continuing to vote the shares owned by state pensions to support the climate agenda, racial equity and abortion rights, according to an investigation of voting records by the American Accountability Foundation (AAF). On May 2, 2023, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed into law a bill that barred state officials from using public money to promote ESG goals, but Florida’s SBA, which manages the state’s pensions, voted for a resolution requiring race and gender equity audits. In Ohio, the state senate voted 26-to-7 on May 10 to ban the use of state money for the purpose of “influencing any social or environmental policy or attempting to influence the governance of any corporation” toward these goals, but the Ohio Public Employees Retirement System (OPERS) voted for a resolution at AT&T to block the company from donating to pro-life lawmakers, among other examples.

Conservative states working to keep state funds out of the environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) movement are finding that, when it comes to state fund managers, you can lead them to water but can’t always make them drink. Despite recent laws in states like Florida and Ohio banning the use of municipal dollars for political causes, fund managers are continuing to vote the shares owned by state pensions to support the climate agenda, racial equity and abortion rights, according to an investigation of voting records by the American Accountability Foundation (AAF). In addition to ESG issues, corporate resolutions have recently been introduced to examine companies’ exposure to China, amid recent initiatives, particularly among tech companies, to “decouple” from China because of strategic and human rights concerns. Shareholders are recently learning the cost of companies pursuing political agendas.

The Epoch Times: Minors Banned From Attending Orlando Furry Convention Under New Florida Law
Minors Banned From Attending Orlando Furry Convention Under New Florida Law
An upcoming Furry convention in Florida will ban children due to a new state law . The Megaplex 2023 convention, which caters to people interested in anthropomorphic characters, has attracted sexual predators who take advantage of the fun-looking costumes and play-acting, making it a vulnerable spot for children. In 2021, a woman reported that she was assaulted by a "convicted pedophile" at the event, leading to a revision of the convention's rules. The new law prohibits minors from attending any "adult live performance."

The Furry trend has become popular in schools but has been attended by many adults for years . The alleged assault at Megaplex 2021 led to the organization issuing an online apology and revising its convention rules. However, many Furry convention organizers continue to allow children, despite the concerns raised by experts. Jon Uhler, a veteran counselor who has worked with sex offenders, has been sounding the alarm that the Furry craze is the perfect cover for people seeking to groom children for sexual activity, with pedophiles using costumes to conceal their identity.

Elon Musk Steps In After Conservatives Sound the Alarm on Big Twitter Problem: 'That Was a Mistake'
Elon Musk intervened after Twitter planned to censor the documentary "What is a Woman?" for "misgendering" transgender people. The Daily Wire had made a deal with Twitter to make the documentary available on the platform free of charge for 24 hours. However, Twitter later informed the Daily Wire that the documentary violated their rules on "hateful conduct" because it referred to men claiming to be women as "he" and "him". After several tweets calling on Elon Musk to reverse the decision, Musk personally confirmed that the documentary would be allowed to play on Twitter uncensored, emphasizing his commitment to free speech.


The Epoch Times: Amid Ongoing Wildfires, Nova Scotia Premier Reveals Federal Aid Following Hurricane Fiona Was Delayed Due to Improper Paperwork
Amid Ongoing Wildfires, Nova Scotia Premier Reveals Federal Aid Following Hurricane Fiona Was Delayed Due to Improper Paperwork
PM Justin Trudeau claimed that aid to Nova Scotia for Hurricane Fiona was delayed due to improperly filled-out paperwork, according to Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston during a press conference about wildfires in the province. However, Houston disagreed with the assessment and said that even if true, there was a time to act and the federal government missed that opportunity. After the miscommunication, additional steps have been taken to ensure there are no more misunderstandings, according to Houston.

Nova Scotia has experienced an unprecedented number of wildfires resulting in the destruction of over 200 homes, and the Canadian government has approved a request to send Canadian Armed Forces members to the province to assist. The United States, South Africa, and Costa Rica are sending firefighters to help. Nova Scotia is seeking federal disaster relief funding, commitments to match Red Cross donations, and a temporary leave benefit for people displaced due to the wildfires.

Work Underway to Shut Down Montreal’s Suspected Chinese Police Stations, Says Trudeau Adviser
The Canadian government is investigating two Montreal-area suspected Chinese police stations, which are being run by Canadian citizens and serving Chinese immigrant communities. Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino previously claimed that all Chinese police stations in Canada had been shut down, but the Service à la famille chinoise du Grand Montréal (SFCGM) released a statement contradicting the claim. Canada's federal government has yet to arrest anyone associated with the stations, but the US charged individuals involved in a station in New York City. The government opened consultations on a foreign influence registry in March 2022, and Emergency Preparedness Minister Bill Blair stated on June 1 that the government has received "positive support to proceed," but no timeline has been set for introducing a bill.

The Epoch Times: Stock Market Today: Wall Street Rises With Hopes for Pause to Rate Hikes
Stock Market Today: Wall Street Rises With Hopes for Pause to Rate Hikes
Investors hope that the Federal Reserve may take it easier on interest rate hikes as several reports show a split U.S. economy. The job market is strong, yet manufacturing is weakening and retailers are under pressure. Wall Street expected late Wednesday's deal to prevent default on the U.S. government's debt, but only a slip-up would cause waves for stocks. Reports show a clouded view of whether the U.S. economy will fall into a recession before inflation recedes enough to convince the Federal Reserve to take it easier on interest rates, pushing traders to largely bet on the Fed to hold rates steady at its next meeting in two weeks. Tech and other high-growth stocks tend to get hit hardest by higher rates if there is no pause to hikes, while retailers such as Dollar General report weaker profit and revenue.

Despite Pushback, Wokeness Getting Worse Before It Gets Better
The Academy of Motion Pictures has implemented new diversity requirements for films to qualify for Best Picture, requiring at least two out of four categories of diversity standards to be met. This follows years of Hollywood's woke agenda, which has led to awkwardly inserted minority or LGBT actors in films. Many fear this could lead to a dangerous categorization of people based on race, ethnicity, or gender rather than as individuals. Richard Dreyfuss has spoken out against this, but others need to do so as well.

Arizona Restricting Phoenix Construction As Groundwater Dries Up—Gov. Assures ‘Water Future Is Secure’
Arizona officials announced restrictions on developing future housing projects in the Phoenix region due to dwindling groundwater resources and the effects of climate change. A study showed the region will experience an unmet demand for groundwater resources, and new developments must prove they can provide an assured 100-year water supply from a source other than groundwater. While approved developments may continue, unapproved ones must find alternate water sources. Arizona shares drought challenges with California and Nevada and recently agreed to save an additional 3 million acre-feet of water from the Colorado River.
