The Epoch Times: McCarthy Rips CNN for Hiring Clapper, McCabe in Response to Questions on Trump
House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy criticized CNN for their handling of Andrew McCabe and James Clapper, two figures who have previously been accused of mishandling classified information and lying. McCarthy argued that CNN's decision to continue featuring these individuals as commentators reflected poorly on the network and called into question their credibility. The comments came as McCarthy was being questioned about the indictment of former President Donald Trump for his own handling of classified documents, which he characterized as unequal treatment compared to President Joe Biden.
Red State: FBI's Political Agenda Exposed: Agency Conceals Evidence of President Biden's Bribery Scheme
The FBI allegedly covered up evidence of bribery involving President Joe Biden and his son Hunter. They were allegedly paid off by the founder of a Ukrainian energy company in exchange for favorable actions towards the company. The FBI blacked out information on phone calls between Biden and the Burisma executive, who is also an asset working with Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service. This has caused concerns about corruption within the agency and the integrity of the Biden family. If these allegations are true, it undermines the credibility of the current administration and calls into question the ethical conduct of its key members.
Daily Wire: Adam Schiff Faces House Censure Vote And Prospect Of Steep Fine
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) has introduced a resolution to censure and fine Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) for allegedly lying about Russian collusion during former President Donald Trump's term.

The resolution is expected to go to a vote on Thursday.
The Epoch Times: NY Attorney General Makes Unusual Prediction in Trump Case
Donald Trump's federal prosecution for mishandling classified documents could delay New York Attorney General Letitia James' case against the former president, causing a potential delay in scheduling. In the $250 million lawsuit, James alleges that Trump falsified his assets to obtain beneficial loans. Trump was previously indicted by Manhattan District Attorney Bragg and faces investigations from prosecutors in Fulton County, Georgia. The federal classified documents case, which accuses Trump of "willful retention" of national defense information, also includes multiple counts of obstruction of justice and false statements.
Breitbart: Nancy Pelosi Uses Orlando Pulse Anniversary to Push Gun Control

Fox News: EXCLUSIVE: Boebert introduces new impeachment articles against Biden over border crisis
Rep. Lauren Boebert introduces articles of impeachment against President Joe Biden on claims that he mishandled his "constitutional duty to secure our southern border."

She also cosponsors Rep. Andy Ogles' articles of impeachment against Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.
Newsbusters: Nicolle Wallace Compares Trump Documents Case to Fictional Putin Coup
MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace insinuated that former President Trump taking classified documents was equivalent to Vladimir Putin selling documents after fleeing a coup, in a bizarre and creepy “thought experiment,” despite the lack of any charges against Trump for espionage, treason, or attempted sale of the classified documents . The comparison was disgusting and a lie being echoed shamelessly by the media. They have insisted the only insurrection was January 6th and Trump losing power was a triumph for democracy, but Wallace's fearmongering suggested otherwise, that it was more like a revolution or coup instead of a peaceful, democratic transfer of power, which has raised suspicions of election interference . MSNBC's liberal media failed to keep their story straight and tried to distract the public from President Biden’s foreign bribery scandal or the articles of impeachment just introduced.

Fox News: Sen. Vance blocks Biden's DOJ nominees in response to Trump indictment: 'This must stop'
Republican Sen. JD Vance will be holding up Department of Justice nominees in retaliation to the Biden administration's indictment of former President Donald Trump on federal felony counts for refusing to hand over classified documents at Mar-a-Lago. Vance claims that the DOJ "cares more about politics than law enforcement." Vance's hold will not apply to people nominated to the US Marshals Service and would only prevent the Senate from quickly approving Biden's nominees by unanimous consent, instead requiring a floor vote. The announcement was met with praise from conservatives but opposition from Democrats on social media.
Fox News: Karine Jean-Pierre responds to Hatch Act violation comments: 'We didn't know'
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre denies knowingly violating the Hatch Act by using the term "Mega MAGA" to describe Republican policies, arguing that Republicans themselves have used the term. The Office of the Special Counsel accused Jean-Pierre of violating the act, which limits certain political activities of federal employees to prevent influencing elections. The White House Counsel's Office is reviewing the OSC's opinion and will respond to them.
Jean-Pierre committed the violation last year ahead of the 2022 midterm elections when she repeatedly referred to "mega MAGA Republicans" while acting in her role as the press secretary. The OSC claimed that because she made the statements while acting in her official capacity, she violated the Hatch Act prohibition against using her official authority or influence to interfere with or affect the result of an election.
Fox News: Ted Cruz accuses FBI deputy director of 'covering up' details of alleged of $5M Biden bribery scheme
Sen. Ted Cruz criticized the FBI for failing to answer questions about whether they investigated an alleged multi-million dollar bribery scheme involving President Joe Biden. Cruz questioned Deputy Director Paul Abbate on whether the bureau had evidence relating to the allegation that Biden received $5 million from an executive of the Ukrainian gas firm Burisma Holdings, where his son Hunter Biden was on the board. Abbate refused to comment, prompting Cruz to accuse the agency of "stonewalling and covering up serious allegations of evidence of corruption from the president."
Reports suggest that the FBI has evidence relating to the allegation, including an FD-1023 form and 17 voice recordings between the informant and Biden. Cruz pushed Abbate to provide the Senate with this evidence, but the deputy director again declined, prompting criticism from the senator. Democrats have resisted calls for a hearing into the allegations, but Cruz argued that the American people have a right to know whether there is credible evidence the president of the United States took a $5 million bribe.
Fox News: Trump pleads not guilty to 37 federal felony charges in classified records case
Trump pleads not guilty to 37 federal charges, including willful retention of national defense information, conspiracy to obstruct justice, and false statements related to Mar-a-Lago.

The former president, who is the current front-runner in the 2024 Republican presidential primary, called the investigation a "WITCH HUNT" and his attorneys dubbed the indictment a "turning point in our nation’s history." He also pleaded not guilty to state charges in New York in April related to hush-money payments made during the 2016 campaign.

National Review: The Corner: Choose Presidential Nominees Like Vice-Presidential Nominees
Charlie argues that the primary system is flawed as it allows a small group of voters, with views differing from the majority, to choose the options for the general electorate to decide upon in the US political system. He suggests that other developed countries have internal processes for selecting candidates within political parties before putting candidates up for a vote. Charlie proposes abolishing the primary system, suggesting that presidential candidates should be selected in the same way as vice-presidential candidates, through non-public deliberations with no direct input from voters.
Forbes: Trump Arraignment: Trump Under Arrest In Classified Docs Case At Miami Courthouse
Former President Donald Trump surrenders to federal authorities amid small groups of protesters outside the Wilkie D.

This marks his second indictment since announcing a 2024 run, and the first time ever for a former president to face federal charges.

PJ Media: Zuckerberg Cops to Censoring True COVID Information at Behest of Public Health™ 'Experts'
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg blames the "scientific establishment" for censorship of COVID information on Facebook. Zuckerberg discussed the challenges of executing the platform's policies on removing "misinformation", stating that the scientific assumptions were not fully vetted earlier in the pandemic.
Facebook announced in February 2021 that it would censor false and misleading health claims, but reversed course three months later after the idea of a lab-leak in Wuhan began to circulate. The question of why public health authorities should have a say over what is allowed on social media is not asked in the halls of power. Facebook's compulsive enforcement of COVID and LGBTQ+ narratives led to the permanent suspension of the speaker's own account.

American Thinker: As Biden is urged to threaten Russia with nukes, we need to revisit Eisenhower’s warnings
A senior official from the American Enterprise Institute is calling on the Biden Administration to give nuclear weapons to Ukraine as deterrence against Russia. This comes as official D.C. is pouring weapons into Ukraine, which may deplete American weapon supplies and require more funding. Eisenhower warned against the risk of national wealth combined with military-industrial complex, as well as the risk of assigning too much money and respect to the tech-science sector. We should apply the wisdom of Eisenhower's governance moving forward.

The Epoch Times: US Needs to Lend More to IMF, Other Global Institutions to Bolster Influence: Yellen
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has called for the US to play a greater role in the International Monetary Fund and other international financial organisations to support poverty-stricken countries and limit China's influence . China has become a substantial lender through its Belt and Road Initiative, prompting concerns that it traps poor countries in debt while failing to provide economic growth. Yellen requested that Congress provide additional funding to the IMF's two key trust funds, while bolstering US involvement in the African Development Fund and International Development Bank. However, critics have said the IMF has failed to bring China into line with international norms, with some arguing the Fund must get serious about tackling Beijing if it is to take its remit seriously.

National Review: Novelist Cormac McCarthy Dead at 89
Pulitzer Prize-winning writer Cormac McCarthy, known for his apocalyptic Westerns, died at age 89 in his Santa Fe home of natural causes. McCarthy was the author of twelve novels, including The Road and Blood Meridian, and wrote in a restrained style of “simple declarative sentences." His novels often dealt with death and violence, but Literary theorist Harold Bloom called Blood Meridian the greatest by a living American author and the ultimate Western. McCarthy won a Pulitzer Prize for The Road and his novels were often adapted into films, including No Country for Old Men, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture in 2007. McCarthy is survived by his sons, Cullen and John, who inspired The Road.
The Federalist: Exclusive: Rubio Introduces Bill To End Ugly Federal Buildings
Sen. Marco Rubio has introduced the “Beautifying Federal Civil Architecture Act,” which aims to make classical and traditional architecture the preferred style for certain federal buildings. This legislation would restore Trump's "Make Federal Buildings Beautiful Again" executive order -- which required new office buildings in Washington, D.C. to be classical -- and reverse the General Services Administration’s preference for modernism. According to a study, 72% of Americans prefer traditional architecture for federal buildings and courthouses, but elected Democrats and architects they hire have tended to oppose moves to make buildings beautiful.

The American Spectator: California’s Next Step: Forcing Insurance Companies to Cover Gay Men Using a Surrogate
California bill proposes insurance companies cover surrogacy for same-sex couples. Current law does not cover in-vitro fertilization, but revision classifies same-sex couples as infertile and would expand coverage to include surrogacy. This change would benefit California's infertility industry, but raises ethical concerns and increased health issues for women and babies. The emotional impact of surrogacy on women, as well as the mental health of children raised in same-sex marriages, are also issues. Surrogacy advocates argue that consent satisfies all moral considerations, but the bill prioritizes desires of childless gay couples over well-being of surrogate women and children.

Forbes: Learning How To Love Dandelions
Dandelions may be despised by those obsessed with pristine lawns, but they are a vital and useful plant that has fed humans for thousands of years. Young dandelion leaves are highly nutritious and make a tasty topping or addition to salads, while mature leaves can be sautéed like spinach. Dandelion roots can also be cooked like turnips, dried and roasted like coffee, or used to create root beer. The bright flowers can be used in salads, tea, or even as a natural dye. Despite being introduced by pilgrims, dandelions have established themselves as important wildflowers throughout the Americas and support native birds and pollinating insects. Their long taproots help prevent erosion and conserve moisture and nutrients in the soil, while their fuzzy seeds can travel up to 100 kilometers away.
