Breitbart: Border Patrol Chief to Retire After Two Record-Shattering Years of Migrant Crossings
United States Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz will retire on June 30. Ortiz has led the agency during two of its busiest years for migrant encounters along the southwest border.

Fox News: Former New Mexico GOP candidate indicted in shooting spree at Democrat officials' homes
Former New Mexico state candidate, Solomon Peña, has been indicted by a grand jury in connection with a shooting spree that targeted four Democratic elected officials’ homes following the 2022 midterm elections. Peña, who ran for District 14 of the New Mexico House of Representatives in November 2022, had allegedly organised the shootings after visiting the homes of Bernalillo County commissioners to urge them not to certify the election results. Peña faces a mandatory minimum of 60 years in prison if convicted of the charges, however, he has denied any involvement in the shootings against Democratic politicians.
Peña was charged along with co-conspirators Demetrio Trujillo and Jose Trujillo, who also faced several firearm offenses. The DOJ claimed that Peña had allegedly urged officials not to certify the election results as he considered it rigged against him. The shootings were carried out between the fourth of December 2022 and the third of January. No one was injured in the shootings, however, several shots passed through the bedroom of Democratic state Sen. Linda Lopez’s sleeping daughter. Peña is currently being held without bail.
Red State: The Daily Wire Alleges Elon Musk's Twitter Canceled a Deal Over 'Misgendering,' and There's More Disturbing Revelations
Twitter executives canceled a deal to screen The Daily Wire's What Is a Woman documentary due to alleged "misgendering" in the film, according to CEO Jeremy Boreing. The film chronicles the transgender movement's militarist approach and targeting of children. After finding two instances of "misgendering," Twitter withdrew support, limited the reach of the film, and labeled it "hateful conduct." The Daily Wire will still show the film, offering a test of whether Twitter will follow through in throttling the content. This is a defining moment for the platform amid accusations of censorship.
The American Mind: "Off-White Supremacy" | The Roundtable Ep. 173
House Republicans and Democrats agree on a proposed deal that allows for massive debt in exchange for minor concessions. Meanwhile, the Left's arguments about race in America are becoming absurd, attempting to drive a wedge between white and nonwhite people. The editors discuss these trends and DeSantis' run for presidency in the latest episode of The American Mind's 'Editorial Roundtable' podcast.
National Review: The Corner: Why It Makes Sense for DeSantis to Hit Trump on Abortion
The DeSantis Super PAC has released new ads critiquing Trump's comments about Florida's heartbeat bill, featuring endorsements from Iowa governor Kim Reynolds and Bob Vander Plaats. The ads emphasize Iowa's overwhelming support for a heartbeat law and ask why Trump won't stand for life. The strategy of hitting Trump from the right on social issues could help DeSantis win Iowa, a must-win state for any potential GOP nominee.
While some commentators question DeSantis's playbook of targeting Trump from the right, it makes sense given Iowa's pro-life stance and Trump's increasing support among very conservative Republicans. By emphasizing DeSantis's signing of Florida's six-week limit on abortions, the ads seek to reduce Trump's level of support and highlight the general debate about late-term abortions. Though this may cause concern among some GOP donors, the strategy could help DeSantis win Iowa and gain broader support among social conservatives.

Euromaidan Press: Ukraine will not hit Iskander launchers in Russia with Western-provided weapons – Air Force spox
Ukraine cannot attack Russian Iskander missile systems with Western weapons due to commitments to international partners. However, Ukraine will use any available weapons against Russian missile positions in the temporarily occupied territories.

Euromaidan Press: Russia blocking Ukraine’s maritime grain exports again – Infrastructure Ministry
Russia is blocking registration of ships to all Ukrainian ports, halting the UN-brokered Black Sea grain export deal. Russia registered only one incoming vessel for inspection bound for the port of Chornomorsk, while other parties confirmed ten vessels bound for three ports to participate in the Black Sea Initiative. The maritime blockade of Ukrainian Black Sea ports by Russia has been in place since 2022, limiting the world’s food supply and causing more than $1 billion in losses. The Grain Initiative has exported over 30.5 million tons of Ukrainian agrarian products, and the ban on Ukrainian grain imports to EU countries is deemed unacceptable by Ukraine MFA.

The Economist: America’s states are pursuing their own foreign policies
State legislatures across the United States are passing bills that restrict ties with Chinese firms and citizens and limit China's influence on American institutions, from education to agriculture. For instance, Florida recently signed three bills into law aimed at "cracking down on Communist China" by halting Chinese firms from buying agricultural land, stopping certain apps owned by Chinese companies from being used in state institutions, and limiting ties between higher-education institutions in Florida and "countries of concern". China-bashing is proving to be a popular issue with state legislators, particularly given the bipartisan nature of the issue, and many other states are following Florida's lead and enacting similar laws.
Many statehouses are now turning their attention to foreign affairs, even though historic factors have meant that for much of their history, siting and legislating on local issues was the main focus of statehouses, with national policies being followed as a matter of course. Today, with 39 states controlled by a single party, it has become easier to pass legislation, and both Republican and Democratic statehouses now use these bills to register discontent with the federal government's failure to act on certain issues. However, these bills have real consequences, particularly for foreign relations, given that America's states are pursuing their own foreign policies, which could have impacts that stretch well beyond individual states.

The Blaze: Joe Rogan sees something in this boycott that no one else sees
Bud Light sales have plummeted following the campaign with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney. While comedians Shane Gillis, Mark Normand, and Ari Shaffir believe that a gay commercial will save Bud Light during Pride Month, Joe Rogan and Dave Rubin disagree. Rogan thinks that the campaign has hit the brand hard, and Bud Light won't recover. Rubin agrees but also thinks that most companies will still try to seem like LGBTQ allies, even if they face backlash like Target has for donating over $2.1 million to GLSEN.

Daily Wire: University Of North Carolina Medical School Disbands DEI Task Force With ‘No Plan To Implement’ Recommendations
UNC medical school is rejecting its diversity task force's recommendation to integrate social justice into its health sciences curriculum, according to a letter to the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE).

Color Us United, a group advocating for a "race-blind America," welcomed the move.

PJ Media: 'That '70s Show' Actor and Scientologist Danny Masterson Found Guilty of Felony Rape
Danny Masterson, best known for "That '70s Show," has been found guilty of rape on two counts with a possible sentence of 30 years to life in prison. The jury of seven women and five men deliberated for seven days but could not reach a verdict on the third count. Masterson will be held without bail until sentencing, and his attorneys are expected to appeal.
The Church of Scientology played a large role in both trials by denying the claims and punishing and retaliating against the victims. Actress Leah Remini supported one of the victims during closing arguments. The trial exposed the graphic and emotional testimonies of the victims, who described being drugged and raped by Masterson. Cameras in all courtrooms are essential to the transparency and health of our justice system.
Fox News: Off-duty Chicago police officer shot after moving garbage cans blocking alleyway

Forbes: UEFA Investigators Decide On FC Barcelona Champions League Ban: Reports
UEFA inspectors have recommended that FC Barcelona be banned from the Champions League for one season due to their involvement in the referee payments scandal. This comes after a probe was launched by UEFA due to a "potential violation" of their own laws. Barcelona reportedly paid the Technical Committee of Referees' Ex-Vice President almost €7 million ($7.5 million) from 2001 to 2018. The decision on any punishment will ultimately be made by UEFA's president Alekksandr Ceferin. If Barcelona are banned and later cleared by the Spanish courts, they could potentially sue UEFA and earn millions via a lawsuit.

Fox News: NHTSA moves to mandate automatic emergency brakes in all new vehicles
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) plans to mandate automatic emergency braking systems in all new vehicles within three years, requiring the feature to autonomously avoid a collision up to 50mph and detecting pedestrians at night. The new rules would help reduce pedestrian deaths, with NHTSA estimating that the pedestrian detector could save 360 lives and reduce injuries by at least 24,000 each year. Automakers have already voluntarily introduced the technology, with 90% of passenger vehicles now equipped with it. However, some have called for a 60-day public comment period on the proposed regulations, which the NHTSA will then decide on a final version.
