The Western Journal: DHS Terminates Biden-Era Immigration Program That 'Undercut American Workers'
The Department of Homeland Security has terminated a Biden-era immigration program that allowed over 500,000 migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to enter the U.S. Participants have been notified their parole is revoked and must leave the country immediately.
Critics argue the program was poorly vetted and led to job competition for American workers, with claims of widespread fraud. The termination aligns with calls for stricter immigration policies and a return to what some describe as "America First" principles.

Fox News: California candidate for governor blasts Newsom while walking through LA riot aftermath
California GOP gubernatorial candidate Steve Hilton criticized Governor Gavin Newsom's handling of recent anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles, highlighting the extensive graffiti as a symbol of lawlessness. Hilton accused Newsom of being unfit for leadership amid the unrest.
Former Democratic senator Gloria Romero echoed Hilton's sentiments, expressing her disillusionment with the Democratic Party's direction. Both emphasized concerns over public safety and the implications of unvetted immigration. Speculation grows around Newsom's potential presidential ambitions as he maintains a tough stance against Trump.
The Federalist: The Claim America 'Stole' California From Mexico Is An Ignorant Lie
Katy Perry's assertion that California has always belonged to Mexico overlooks the state's complex history. Prior to Spanish colonization in the 18th century, California was home to numerous Native tribes. After Mexico's independence in 1821, California's population dwindled, and governance was weak, leading to U.S. annexation after the Mexican-American War.
The claim that California belongs to Mexico is further challenged by demographic data. By the time California became a state in 1850, the population was predominantly white, with very few Mexicans. Today, while a significant portion of California's population is of Hispanic descent, most have arrived in recent decades, weakening the historical claim that California belongs to Mexico.
Fox News: Democrats forge strange bedfellows as party flounders in Trump's 2nd term
The Democratic Party is facing internal strife and unexpected alliances as it responds to President Trump's second term. Protests against ICE in Los Angeles have escalated, prompting Trump to federalize the National Guard. Prominent Democrats are rallying behind protesters while criticizing Trump's actions.
Additionally, the party is defending controversial figures like Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national facing serious charges, and Mahmoud Khalil, an activist accused of supporting Hamas. This has led to tensions within the party, as some members question the direction of their leadership and strategy.
Fox News: ASRA NOMANI: The $2.1 billion machine behind 'spontaneous' anti-Trump protests
Democratic leaders, including Randi Weingarten and Al Sharpton, are organizing the protest, which aims to mobilize against President Trump. This effort is backed by a network of 198 Democratic-aligned groups, collectively raising $2.1 billion annually, portraying a grassroots movement while being heavily funded and orchestrated.
Critics argue that these protests are not genuine citizen-led actions but rather a top-down political strategy disguised as activism. The involvement of elite figures in the protest industry raises concerns about the authenticity of the movements and their potential to incite unrest.

The Federalist: Stepdads Have A Unique Opportunity To Teach True Love
Single mothers often face stigma and challenges, whether due to abandonment, loss, or domestic violence. Their children grow up quickly and develop resilience, but life is easier with two parents. The role of a stepfather is crucial, requiring sensitivity and commitment to the family.
Good stepfathers provide financial support, engage in children's lives, and respect their relationships with biological fathers. They help create stability and a nurturing environment, leading with faith and love. This Father's Day, recognition is due to stepfathers who embrace their role in healing and completing families.
GB News: 'If the divide between politicians and voters keeps growing, we’re going to see more unrest'
Recent violence in Ballymena, Northern Ireland, has raised concerns about the disconnect between voters and politicians. Mobs have vandalized properties and community centers, reflecting deep-seated anger over issues like rising taxes, immigration, and crime, leading to a sense of betrayal among citizens.
The growing distrust in political leaders is creating a vacuum that populist figures like Nigel Farage are exploiting. As young people face the aftermath of pandemic isolation, their frustrations are being channeled into unrest. For a more stable society, politicians must prioritize listening to constituents and addressing their concerns.
The Economist: The West has stopped losing its religion
After decades of increasing secularism, Christianity is stabilizing and even gaining traction among younger Americans. In 1990, only 5% identified as atheists or agnostics, but by 2019 that number rose to 30%. This shift has led to more social liberalism and changes in family structures.
For the first time in half a century, the trend of secularism appears to have halted, indicating a potential resurgence of religious affiliation in American society.

Israel's Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar confirmed Israeli strikes on Iranian nuclear and military sites, asserting the necessity of the actions due to Iran's ongoing violations. He communicated with various foreign leaders, including those from France and Germany, who expressed support for Israel's right to defend itself.
The strikes have drawn mixed reactions, with some European leaders urging restraint while acknowledging the threat posed by Iran's nuclear ambitions. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and French President Emmanuel Macron emphasized Israel's right to self-defense, while the Kremlin condemned the escalation.

Israel's recent military operation, "Operation Rising Lion," targeted Iran's nuclear and missile infrastructure, resulting in the deaths of two high-ranking generals: Gen. Hossein Salami, leader of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, and Gen. Mohammad Bagheri, chief of staff of the Iranian armed forces. The strikes also killed at least 20 other senior Iranian commanders.

Fox News: Israel releases video of strike on Iranian ballistic missiles aimed at Jewish state
Israel conducted Operation Rising Lion, targeting Iranian ballistic missiles it claimed were aimed at its territory. The operation included strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities and involved the Mossad's covert preparations, including establishing a drone base and deploying precision-guided weapons.
The Israeli Defense Forces reported significant successes, including the elimination of key Iranian military leaders and the destruction of air defense systems that posed threats to Israeli aircraft. This preemptive action aimed to neutralize what Israel deemed an immediate threat to its citizens.
The Telegraph: Israel’s bravery shames our pusillanimous Prime Minister
Sir Keir Starmer's response to Israel's strikes on Iranian nuclear sites has been criticized as weak and inconsistent with his strong support for Ukraine. While he calls for restraint and diplomacy, critics argue that this approach fails to acknowledge the real and imminent threat posed by Iran's nuclear ambitions.
The article contends that Israel's actions are necessary to counteract Iran's destabilizing influence in the region and protect not only its own interests but those of other Middle Eastern states and the West. It suggests that a firm stance against Iran is essential for the future stability of a potential Palestinian state.

The Federalist: Beware The Progressive Playbook To 'Modernize' Churches
The Southern Baptist Convention's annual meeting revealed growing tensions within the organization, as conservative proposals to remove churches for appointing female pastors and to dismantle a progressive lobbying arm failed. Critics see these outcomes as indicative of a liberal shift, alongside troubling attempts to modernize local churches, often led by SBC-affiliated figures.
Documented cases show a pattern of new leadership centralizing control, erasing traditional church identities, and pushing progressive agendas, often without full congregational consent. Resistance efforts, like those at Faith Baptist Church in North Carolina, highlight the urgent need for congregations to protect their identities and governance against external influences.

The Western Journal: Phones Smuggled Out of North Korea May Be Exactly What’s in Our Future
North Korean smartphones are equipped with advanced surveillance features that censor language and monitor user activity, including automatic screenshots every five minutes. This technology aims to suppress South Korean cultural influences and maintain state control over citizens' communication.
Experts warn that the tactics employed in North Korea could inspire similar surveillance measures in more democratic societies, raising concerns about the potential for increased censorship and control through technology. The implications of such developments could lead to a gradual erosion of privacy and freedom.
