Red State: Broadway ‘Actress’ Accidentally Hands Ron DeSantis a Gift During Tony Awards Broadcast
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is receiving backhanded "endorsements" from high-profile critics, including actress Denée Benton who referred to him as the "grand wizard" of Florida during the Tony Awards, prompting reactions from his critics on the left and recognition from his supporters on the right. The more criticism DeSantis receives, the more popular he becomes among voters who see this as a political tactic from his opponents. DeSantis has been compared to former President Donald Trump, who also saw a surge in popularity despite indictments and attacks from his political opponents.
Spectator USA: Does Prince Harry want to make journalism into a branch of PR?
With festival season approaching, Prince Harry's two-year campaign against the media has come to fruition in a UK high court. Though not the first royal to attend court, he is the first member of the royal family to give witness in a court case since 1891. His testimony was filled with indications of memory problems and strange statements. Harry seems to desire to become a campaigner for truth and justice, but his crusade began when he met a barrister while holidaying in France. This doesn't look good for his credibility which may not last much longer if he continues his current behavior.

The Federalist Papers: Biden's Embarrassing Mistake Has People Editing Him Into a Literal Jester
President Biden made a gaffe during a pride event at the White House, saying "transjester" instead of "transgender." He was celebrating Pride Month with a ceremony on the South Lawn, which he called the "largest pride month celebration ever held at the White House." Social media had a field day with his mistake, though the White House transcript spelled the mistake as "transgester." This blunder occurred after the Air Force celebrated Pride Month with a graphic showing a service member saluting the LGBT pride standard and a ship was named after Harvey Milk, who received an "other than honorable" discharge for breaking the rules.

The New American: At White House "Pride" Event, Biden Blasts Laws Protecting Kids From Transgender Mutilation - The New American
President Joe Biden criticized the 19 US states that have banned gender-affirming care for children in a speech during a LGBT “Pride” Month event at the White House. Gender-affirming care includes hormone therapies and surgery to remove sexual organs, and Biden expressed his opposition to the prohibition of such procedures by certain states in his remarks. He has previously called for the protection of “trans kids” from laws “targeting transgender children”.
Biden claimed that such laws were anti-LGBTQ, and impeded individuals’ “right to be yourself, the right to make your own health decisions, the right to raise your own children”. Though some states have passed laws protecting children from transgender surgeries and hormone therapy, others have temporarily paused such legislation through judicial injunctions.

Morse seems to suggest a pleasure-driven lifestyle that keeps the semblance of marriage, despite traditional understandings of marriage as exclusive commitment.

Breitbart: 'Localised Results': Ukraine Claims First Counteroffensive Advances
Ukraine has launched a counteroffensive against Russia's occupation of the southeast, with several villages reportedly reclaimed, including Makarivka, Neskuchne, and Storozheve. The latter is considered strategic due to its position on the Mokri Yaly, which runs along the Mokri Yaly river and was sabotaged by Russian forces to slow Ukrainian troops' advance. Ukraine claims progress in the counteroffensive, with 25 "combat engagements," while Russia claims to have repulsed several attacks and destroyed tanks and armoured vehicles.

Flag And Cross: Congress Takes UFO Whistleblower Seriously, Plans Hearing. Elon Musk? Not So Much.
The House Oversight Committee is planning a hearing on unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs), following claims by a former intelligence officer that the US government possesses "exotic" vehicles and alien bodies. The whistleblower, David Grusch, alleges that a top-secret military program has retrieved crashed or landed non-human exotic vehicles and covered it up from the public, and bodies of extraterrestrial species.

The Epoch Times: US Senators Reintroduce 'Gene Act' to Protect Americans' Genetic Data From Chinese Regime
Republican senators Marco Rubio and John Cornyn have reintroduced legislation aimed at protecting Americans’ genetic data from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). The proposed Genomics Expenditures and National Security Enhancement Act, also known as the “GENE Act”, would require the Committee on Foreign Investment to include the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence and Senate Committee on Foreign Relations in its briefings, with mandatory commercial agreement reporting for companies in the genetic business. The legislation is a response to the CCP aggressively collecting genetic data from American citizens through both legal and illegal means, including marketing Chinese-made virus testing tools to 180 countries and establishing virus testing laboratories in 18 countries. Rubio and Cornyn previously introduced the same-named bill in May 2021, but it did not survive legislative scrutiny, which is why it has been reintroduced this year.
BGI Group, a leading Chinese genomics company, has been repeatedly accused of extensively collecting the genetic data of Americans. The US National Counterintelligence and Security Center has warned of the CCP’s collection of American genomic data, and cited BGI as a key perpetrator several times. There are concerns that BGI may be constructing a genetic database of Americans that could be used to create genetic weapons. In January 2021, Reuters conducted an investigation and found that BGI has collaborated closely with the Chinese military, including projects to collect biometric data from Han Chinese and reduce altitude sickness for border soldiers. Over 8 million women have used BGI’s prenatal genetic testing, but its purposes for collecting genetic information are not fully understood. The company has denied all allegations.

The Epoch Times: EXPLAINER: New Clean Fuel Regulations Come Into Effect July 1 – How Much Will Gas Cost?
The Canadian government's new Clean Fuel Regulations seek to reduce emissions intensity of fuels by 15 percent by increasing the use of agricultural crops in fuel. The Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) expect the policy, fully implemented in 2030, to raise gasoline prices by up to 17 cents per litre and diesel prices by 16 cents per litre. This addition to the current carbon tax could mean consumers end up paying close to 60 cents more per litre by 2030. The new regulations will likely lead to a decrease in real GDP of up to 0.3 percent or $9 billion and will have a disproportionate impact on lower-income households.

Forbes: Author Post: How To Become A Stock Landlord: Renting Your Stocks
Investors should treat stocks like rental properties: seek value, safety, and consistent payments. Hold good stocks and collect dividends, but don't let them sit empty. Renting out stocks, or becoming a "stock market landlord", can generate additional income and allow for compounding. Wealthy investors rent their stocks while collecting dividends, using it as a cash flow vehicle for increased investments. Traditional investors miss out on this opportunity due to a focus on hot stocks and appreciation.
Fox News: House Republicans introduce bill to remove SEC Chair Gary Gensler, restructure agency
Republicans Warren Davidson and Tom Emmer have introduced the SEC Stabilization Act, which would restructure the framework of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and remove its chairman Gary Gensler from his post. Introducing the bill, Davidson said it was time for real reform while Emmer said the SEC deserves "clear and consistent oversight, not political gamesmanship".
The SEC Stabilization Act seeks to prevent any party from controlling more than three seats on the commission; commissioners would still have the same authority but their terms would be staggered. The bill would also redistribute power from the chair to other commissioners, add a sixth commissioner to the body, and create an executive director position to oversee day-to-day operations. The SEC has not commented on the legislation.
Forbes: Netflix Password Sharing Crackdown—New Data Reveals Surprising Truth
Despite protests, Netflix's password sharing crackdown has increased the number of new accounts and subscribers. After revealing the cost of sharing an account and querying whether it was worth it, Netflix added an option to “buy an extra member” or to buy a new account. Data from research company Antenna showed Netflix saw a 102% increase in new accounts per day between 25 and 28 May. Although there was an uptick in cancellations, it was not enough to outshine the increase in new subscribers. The streaming giant is expected to publish its subscriber data later in the current quarter.

The Blaze: Tech exec fired for listing 'Assigned By God' as his preferred pronouns sues former employer: Report
Former Bitwarden executive Chad Scharf is suing the cybersecurity firm for violating Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 after he was fired for listing faith-based preferred pronouns. Bitwarden had required all employees to list preferred pronouns in their personal profiles on Slack as part of the company's inclusivity initiative. The gender ideology behind preferred pronouns violates Scharf's religious beliefs, which hold that there are only two genders that cannot be changed or manipulated. Scharf initially declined to list any preferred pronouns, but later listed them as "assigned by God," leading unnamed employees in Bitwarden's human resources department to feel harassed. Company leaders demanded that Scharf remove his pronouns, warning him he could be legally fired, and eventually terminated his employment.

The hospital performs various gender-affirming surgeries, including hysterectomies, scrotoplasties, and vaginoplasties, among others.

The Catholic Church, which sponsors CommonSpirit, explicitly prohibits sex change interventions.
The American Mind: Liberty Falling
Social media use is linked to an increased risk for anxiety, depression, loneliness, and reduced preference for freedom, according to a new paper from Swansea University. Millennials and Generation Z use social media for up to three-and-a-half hours every day, leading to addiction, which is associated with mental health issues. Increased anxiety also contributes to a reduction in appetite for freedom in future generations. The solution is for parents to ensure their children spend more time in real-world environments, interacting with others, and participating in everyday life. Children should be taught to celebrate and cherish their freedom.

Nilo was linked to four sexual assaults in the Terminal Street area of Charlestown, which occurred in 2007 and 2008, through forensic genealogy and DNA analysis.

The Blaze: 'A drag race from the start': Transvestite wins women's race by nearly 5 minutes; attributes his cycling win to 'a grueling effort'
Male cyclist Austin Killips, who began the physical process of transitioning to a woman in 2019, has won a female cycling race in North Carolina, beating top female athlete Paige Onweller by almost five minutes. Killips also took home the corresponding $5,000 prize, despite other male competitors being unable to claim it. Female cyclist Hannah Arensman retired from the sport last year after losing to Killips, said "this is not fair sport", and called for a separate category for transvestite athletes. Still, according to a study in the journal Sports Medicine, the performance gap between males and females becomes significant at puberty and often amounts to 10-50% depending on the sport. The muscular advantage enjoyed by transgender women is only minimally reduced when testosterone is suppressed.

PJ Media: One Scientist Says What We're All Thinking About DEI
Theoretical physicist and atheist Lawrence Krauss questions the federal government's collection of demographic data on postgraduate science students, including sexual orientation and gender identity. He suggests that this information is irrelevant and a violation of privacy, and questions the purpose of the National Science Foundation's emphasis on sexual identity. Krauss argues that a person's sexual proclivities have no bearing on their ability to be a good scientist and that the small minority of LGBTQ scientists should not receive preferential treatment. He also questions why other private matters, such as religion or politics, are not being asked about, pointing out that demographics would likely be skewed in those areas as well.

The Epoch Times: AI Expert Says Reinforcement Learning is 'Fantastically Bad Idea'
Expert Michael Cohen has joined the godfathers of AI in warning against "ploughing ahead" with certain AI as they could be incredibly dangerous for humans. There is global concern regarding rogue AI behaving in ways that could harm humans, and according to recent reports, Cohen has warned against the dangers of reinforcement learning as it could remove humanity's control over our infrastructure. He noted that potentially disastrous consequences could occur if AI directed a robot to give it the reward instead of a human. There is a need for governments to bring in legislation to manage the risk, said Cohen.
Cohen warned that AI does not possess a natural ethical inhibitor to restrain it from carrying out atrocities unlike humans. He explained that there could be concerns regarding what AI would do if told to eradicate a disease because it may choose to kill everyone who might contract the disease. The lack of a moral compass is a significant risk where AI is concerned, he said. According to recent data, some 300 million jobs in the USA could disappear, but Cohen said he was more concerned about people losing money than not having a purpose in life. This loss could become a big problem if it is on a large scale; however, the risk of job loss from AI is solvable with the tools of taxation and wealth redistribution, concluded Cohen.

Breitbart: James Cameron Says Argentinian Governor Used His Visit for Deceptive PR on Dirty Lithium Mining
Director James Cameron feels he was "ambushed" during his recent visit to Argentina, where he believes there was an attempt to use his environmentalist image to give a positive spin to lithium mining operations despite opposition from Indigenous communities. Cameron had been in the country to speak at a sustainability conference and visit a solar power plant. After his trip, he received a letter from a group of Indigenous communities from the area asking him to cancel or meet with them to explain their opposition. Cameron says he was put in an "optic that had meaning he wasn't aware of" and will now devote attention and money from his Avatar Alliance Foundation to support Indigenous communities opposing lithium operations.
