Author Todd Bensman discusses the immigration crisis under President Biden with Jan Jekielek on “American Thought Leaders.” Bensman’s latest book, “Overrun: How Joe Biden Unleashed the Greatest Border Crisis in U.S. History,” offers a stark contrast between Trump’s illegal immigration policies and Biden’s. Bensman accurately documents how the Biden administration threw away the most secure border in modern history, leaving America more vulnerable to attack. Bensman is a modern Paul Revere; he is warning us: Now is the time to take heed.

Breitbart: Republicans Question Who Gave Joe Biden’s Company $10M in 2017
Republican lawmakers demand transparency from Biden regarding 2017 tax returns, which listed nearly $10 million without specifying revenue line items, raising concerns about who paid the entity and for what in the wake of Joe Biden’s alleged link to a $5 million Ukrainian “bribery” scheme. Before the 2020 election, USA Today published a “fact check” article that tried to support the claims that the Bidens earned “$15.6 million … from speaking fees and book deals,” but a closer look at Biden’s 2017 tax returns raises eyebrows.

The Federalist: Poynter Enlists Yoel Roth For 'Fact-Checking' Summit
Former Twitter executive, Yoel Roth, known for his collusion with government agencies and censorship of conservative content, will be a keynote speaker at Poynter Institute's "fact-checking" summit. Poynter has been training left-leaning journalists and has attempted to brand itself as a resource for accurate journalism, but in reality, it is a means to suppress dissenting voices by providing a pretext for deplatforming. Meta, TikTok, and YouTube are sponsoring the event, and two Meta employees are on the speaker list.
Fox News: ABC, CBS and NBC newscasts ignore alleged Biden bribery scheme, spend hours on Trump: Report
ABC, CBS, and NBC gave zero coverage to reports that President Joe Biden was allegedly paid $5 million by a Burisma executive who was part of a bribery scheme, while they extensively covered Donald Trump's indictment, according to a NewsBusters study. The allegations against Biden were made by a confidential source in a June 2020 FBI interview. Hunter Biden was also reportedly involved in the pay-for-play scheme.
Prominent reporters on ABC, CBS, and NBC focused on Trump's indictment, describing the charges as stunning, historic, and devastating, while there was silence on the alleged bribery by the Biden family. Media Research Center's L. Brent Bozell said that he had never seen "the 'news' media behave as disgracefully as this" and that they "are a farce."
Fox News: Dems looking to 'install' Kamala Harris as president by backing Biden, Tulsi Gabbard, other insiders say
A recent poll shows that many Democrats are comfortable with the idea of Vice President Kamala Harris taking over as commander in chief should President Biden become unable to fulfill his duties. Former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard accused the DNC of re-electing Biden only to get him to resign and install Harris as a "puppet president," even though she is "untested and unelected." However, Democratic pollster Doug Schoen expressed doubts about Harris' ability to lead the country. Civil rights attorney Leo Terrell also voiced concern over the potential of Harris succeeding Biden and suggested that Democrats "are selling Biden Harris as a package" in 2024.
Fox News: Judge orders Michigan GOP Chairperson Karamo, others to pay for legal fees from failed absentee voting lawsuit
Michigan Republican Party Chair Kristina Karamo and others are ordered to pay $58,000+ legal fees incurred by the Detroit clerk’s office to fight a lawsuit challenging absentee voting in the city, which they filed two weeks before Karamo lost to Democrat Jocelyn Benson by 14 percentage points during the elections for the position of Michigan’s top election official. In his order, Judge Timothy Kenny criticized the plaintiffs for filing a frivolous suit with speculation, an absence of facts, and a lack of understanding of Michigan election statutes and Detroit absentee ballot procedures. Karamo and others claimed that Detroit residents must vote in person or go to the city clerk’s office to get an absentee ballot.
The Epoch Times: Boris Johnson Steps up Attacks on Partygate Probe
Former Prime Minister Boris Johnson has intensified his criticism of a parliamentary committee investigating the Partygate scandal, which is set to publish its findings imminently on whether Johnson lied to MPs about COVID-19 lockdown parties in Downing Street. Johnson resigned as an MP on Friday and accused the Privileges Committee of trying to drive him out of politics and of running a “kangaroo court”. Allies have joined him in criticising the committee, although Downing Street has voiced confidence in its work. Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has warned that Conservative Party infighting is damaging the UK’s international reputation and putting off investors.
Johnson launched into a public spat with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak over his resignation honours list, arguing that Sunak wanted him to overrule the House of Lords Appointments Committee by ignoring its veto of eight names Johnson had put forward for peerages. Government sources said this was “not a formality”. Despite resigning from the House of Commons, Johnson vowed in the Daily Express to “be back” and insisted that Brexit must be delivered fully.
Red State: PBS Chyrons During Trump's Bedminster Remarks Were Something Else
PBS receives some funding from the government, but claims editorial independence. During a recent speech by former President Trump, PBS ran chyrons implying violent rhetoric and suggesting that their funding should be defunded. The chyrons were biased and lacked factual evidence, showing a clear agenda against Trump. PBS did not provide similar warnings during Joe Biden's speech demonizing MAGA supporters.

The Epoch Times: John Hopkins University Defines Women as ‘Non-Men’ in Now-Removed LGBT Glossary
Johns Hopkins University removes its online LGBTQ glossary following criticsm over the decision to define a lesbian as "a non-man attracted to non-men". Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling was among critics who spoke out against the definition, which the glossary offered an explanation for by including non-binary people who may also identify with the label. The glossary has since been taken down and the university has released a statement saying it intends to create a campus inclusive to all gender identities, sexual orientations, and viewpoints. The move comes amid a PRRI survey revealing an increasing number of Americans now believe there are only two genders.
Fox News: Republican Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo signs bill requiring insurance to cover all gender surgeries
Nevada Republican Governor Joe Lombardo has signed two bills into law this month protecting transgender rights, while some Republican governors have pushed anti-transgender policies across the country. Lombardo has signed a bill requiring health insurance companies, including Medicaid, to cover all gender-affirming surgeries. Another bill he signed earlier this month pushes prisons to adopt certain medical and mental health standards for transgender inmates. Lombardo vetoed a bill that would have protected providers of gender-affirming services from losing their medical license, citing concerns about ensuring public health and safety standards, which criticism accused would exacerbate Nevada's already-existing provider shortage.

Foreign Policy: How Not to Help Ukraine
The debate over U.S. military aid to Ukraine has overshadowed the lack of a clear U.S. strategy for the conflict. While military aid is important, the U.S. needs to define its objectives and develop practical methods to accomplish them. The U.S. has been hesitant to provide Ukraine with high-end weaponry, but this has prolonged the conflict and delayed support for Ukraine in its counteroffensive. Establishing deterrence by denial and punishment is important, and the better equipped Ukrainian forces are, the more likely they are to blunt further Russian aggression and prevent Russia from achieving its war aims. The United States needs to have the will and strategy to embrace victory.
The Epoch Times: Belarus to Get Russian Tactical Nuclear Weapons 'In Days': Lukashenko
Belarus will host Russian tactical nuclear weapons “in several days,” according to Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, with longer-range missiles also a possibility. President Vladimir Putin had said in March that the weapons would be deployed in Belarus after storage facilities were made ready. The move is Russia’s first deployment of nuclear warheads outside its own territory since the fall of the Soviet Union and is being monitored by China and the US, among others. Lukashenko said: “It [the deployment] was my demand. It wasn’t Russia who imposed it on me…I don’t want anyone to go to war with us. Is there such a threat? There is. I must neutralise that threat”.

Breitbart: Meet the Ukrainian Oligarch Who Allegedly Paid Joe Biden $5 Million
Republican lawmakers claim that Mykola Zlochevsky, a former Ukrainian minister and founder of Burisma Holdings, paid President Joe Biden $5 million and has recordings of their conversations as insurance for a pay-for-play scheme. Zlochevsky fled Ukraine in 2019 amid accusations of embezzlement and reportedly bought Cypriot citizenship. His relationship with Burisma and its connection to Hunter Biden's role on the board has been a subject of controversy, particularly in light of Ukrainian protests against corruption. The allegation that Zlochevsky bribed the Bidens comes from an FBI informant document and has sparked further investigation.

Forbes: Oil Demand Will Peak By Decade End As Countries Move Away From Fossil Fuels, IEA Says
Global demand for oil is set to peak by the end of the decade, according to a report released by the International Energy Agency (IEA). The IEA said that although global demand for oil used in transportation will continue to rise until 2026, thanks to a shift to electric vehicles and policy measures pushing for more efficiency, demand growth for gasoline is set to reverse by the end of this year, while the rise in demand for “combustible fossil fuels” will peak in 2028. Despite the slump in demand, the IEA notes that “additional policy measures and behavioral changes” needed to ensure its goal of net zero emissions by 2050.

Eating watermelon can also boost satiety, decrease body weight, and possibly reduce the risk of stroke and cardiovascular disease.

National Review: The Corner: ‘Society Has Become Desensitized to Criminals’
Crime is on the rise and sympathy for criminality is growing across the U.S. The notion of "restorative criminal justice" is becoming increasingly prevalent, but former inmate JustACon argues that it's naïve to try and explain away the intentional actions of violent offenders. Society has become desensitized to criminals and, in many cases, fascinated by them. Convicts don't deserve peremptory forgiveness, but to earn anything beyond freedom, they must take responsibility for their actions.

Forbes: Yankees’ Anthony Volpe Needs More Minor League Seasoning After All
New York Yankees' rookie shortstop Anthony Volpe is struggling at the plate, hitting just .186-.260-.345 this season, with a 30.8% strikeout rate. Despite hitting nine homers and stealing 14 bases, Volpe's offensive game is far below league average, with an Adjusted Contact Score below average across all major batted ball types. Volpe lacks a true strength, hitting the ball hard enough but giving away too many outs via the strikeout and rolled-over pulled grounders. While he is a long-term prospect, he needs to make more contact and get back to using the entire field to become more of a hit-before-power player.
