Breitbart: Impeachment: GOP Says Mayorkas Helped Kill 1,700 Migrants
More than 1,700 migrants have died on U.S. soil while trying to enter the country illegally on the watch of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, according to Republican Representative Mark Green. However, Democrats and their media allies are silent about the undocumented immigrant death toll. In 2023, evidence shows that Biden and Mayorkas have killed more migrants than were temporarily separated by Trump's deputies in 2017. Republicans and the United Nations admit that Biden's death toll is far higher than the number of bodies found along the U.S. border. Migrants are dying, and this administration needs to be held accountable and impeached .

The Epoch Times: ANALYSIS: West Australia's New Gun Bans May Have Little Impact on Crime Rates
The Western Australian government has recently amended the 1973 Firearms Act, including a ban on certain high-calibre weapons. Supporters argue this is necessary to prevent misuse, reduce the risk of mass shootings, and protect public safety. However, industry experts suggest the ban unfairly targets law-abiding gun owners and may not prevent firearm-related crime. Further, there are concerns regarding the lack of community consultation, with some suggesting that alternative measures, such as stricter licensing and mental health evaluations, could be more effective.
Flag And Cross: Clinton Asked Point Blank About Her Classified Docs Scandal, Gives Blood-Boiling Answer
Hillary Clinton avoids accountability by denying, deflecting, and defending herself. She joked about being accused of doing the same thing as Donald Trump. Republicans refuse to engage with the facts in the indictment, and Clinton derides their defense. In 2016, the FBI did not charge Clinton for using a private server for classified information. Clinton suggested Joe Biden focus on life after politics and referred to Trump supporters as a cult. Clinton's violations of the Federal Records Act included destroying evidence with a BleachBit and a hammer.

Washington Free Beacon: Californians Are Terrified To Say What 'Everyone Knows' About Trans Athletes in Girls' Sports
Mothers and coaches in California are frustrated by transgender-identifying boys competing against their teenage daughters in girls' sports. They have created a secret chat group and are using encrypted messaging apps to voice their opposition to the situation. A Gallup poll shows that nearly 70 percent of Americans believe that sports participation should be determined according to biological sex, yet the Biden administration is planning to update Title IX, requiring schools to allow students to play on teams according to their gender identity. The women fear publicly speaking out against the transgender movement due to concerns about loss of reputation, livelihood, or athletic dreams.
Breitbart: Cornel West: 'I Don't Hate Biden But I Hate Biden's Hypocrisy
Cornel West, a progressive activist and third-party presidential candidate, criticized both Donald Trump and Joe Biden on FNC's "The Ingraham Angle." West had a mixed view of Biden, calling out his hypocrisy, while also acknowledging that Trump's rhetoric was neo-fascist and that he allowed Wall Street to get away with too much. West plans to confront Silicon Valley, Wall Street, and the war profiteers at the Pentagon, rather than avoid them, in his campaign.

National Review: The Corner: The Moral Standards of a Bookshelf
The Left rejects public morals in the public square. A new law in Illinois bans libraries from regulating literary content, but this goes against the purpose of a library: to house communal wisdom and virtue. The moral standards of the books on the shelves are instructive and reflective of the public, and it is right for communities to select which books to make available.
The Epoch Times: Pool Deck at Collapsed Florida Condo Building Failed to Comply With Codes, Standards, Officials Say
Federal investigators have reported that the swimming pool deck of the Champlain Towers South building in Surfside, Florida, which collapsed on June 24, killing 98 people, was severely deficient in strength. Investigators cited corrosion, misplaced reinforcement, and heavier plant containers placed on the deck as having resulted in “critically low margins against failure." The NIST investigation is ongoing, with a report expected in 2025, but developer Dubai-based DAMAC International has already submitted plans for a new luxury condo building on the site, designed by London-based Zaha Hadid Architects. Despite calls for a memorial, town officials have said they will dedicate nearby space for a memorial, while some family members insist the memorial should be placed where people actually died.

PJ Media: ‘The Fight of Our Lives’: Rick Renzi, Trump, Miles Guo, and a Weaponized DOJ
Billionaire Miles Guo, founder of New Federal State of China (NFSC), is in jail with bail denied on accusations of fraud, leading his supporters to argue that his arrest is spurred by a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) project. They emphasize a double standard, as CCP spies accused of targeting Chinese dissidents were released on bail. The weaponization of US justice system is also affecting others such as former Rep. Rick Renzi and former President Donald Trump. Corruption of the justice system is the hallmark of tyranny. Americans should be seriously concerned about not just our country’s sovereignty, but our own personal liberty.
The Epoch Times: EXCLUSIVE: Republican Letter Asks Blinken to Visit Taiwan En Route to China
Republican lawmakers are pushing for Secretary of State Antony Blinken to make a stopover in Taiwan during his upcoming trip to China to assure allies that the US will not be dictated by the Chinese Communist Party. The lawmakers also encouraged Blinken to assuage both Taiwanese and American concerns over delays in shipments of weapons to Taiwan. Long-standing Chinese claims that Taiwan is part of its territory have created a sensitive balancing act for the US, which maintains economic ties with the island but does not officially engage with its government. The Biden administration has been criticized for being too keen to appease China by slowing down informal US-Taiwanese ties.
Washington Free Beacon: Bill Gates Unveils $50 Million Partnership With Chinese University That Conducts Military Research
Bill Gates announces $50 million collaboration with Tsinghua University, a Chinese Communist Party-controlled university with secret-level security credentials for classified military research. Tsinghua has been accused of carrying out cyberattacks for the Chinese government and trains students for China's nuclear weapons program. Gates's partnership with the university will fund drug discovery research involving potent viruses. The move comes amidst increasing concern over scientific research integrity in China. Gates has previously funneled money to Chinese government agencies and military-tied universities. As a non-profit, Gates's foundation is not subject to Congress's recent policy to halt public funding to labs in China through its 2024 defense funding bill.
The Epoch Times: Lawmaker Decries State Dept. Report on Human Trafficking for Burying Rights Abuses in China, Cuba
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) criticized the State Department's 2023 Trafficking in Persons Report, claiming it failed to highlight the genocide of Uyghurs in Xinjiang, China, and Cuba's "medical brigades." The report assesses government efforts around the world to combat human trafficking and highlights strategies to address this crime and protect victims. Rubio stressed that democratic nations have a duty to hold oppressors accountable, and the US must lead by example in the pursuit of justice and accountability. The harsh repression of ethnic Uyghurs in Xinjiang continues, with the Chinese regime detaining more than one million Uyghurs and other ethnic minorities in internment camps, where they are subjected to torture, forced labor, and political indoctrination.

Breitbart: Nolte: Disney’s ‘Elemental’ Bombs With $3.5M Thursday Opening
Disney's Pixar film Elemental had a disappointing opening weekend at the box office, bringing in only $3.5 million, with Variety calling it a "disaster." Many blame the pandemic and the streaming release of many of Pixar's films for training audiences to watch animation at home. Additionally, it is argued that Disney's attempts to include adult sexuality and LGBTQ+ themes in their children's films have deterred parents from taking their children to see them. The upcoming Indiana Jones film and The Marvels are also anticipated to struggle at the box office due to these issues.

Townhall: News Outlets Are Reframing the Bud Light Debacle to Deflect From Trans Controversy
Modelo has overtaken Bud Light as the top-selling beer in the US, which has been attributed to a sustained customer backlash against Bud Light, partially sparked by a social media post by transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney.

Business analysts are searching for reasons for the change in preference away from Bud Light, citing changing market preferences and Cinco de Mayo as possible causes, but cannot deny the immediate and huge impact of the shift. The public's response is considered a legitimate customer revolt.

The Epoch Times: Iowa Supreme Court Issues Rare 3–3 Decision, Declines to Reinstate Abortion Law
The Iowa Supreme Court declined to reinstate a six-week ban on abortions backed by the state’s governor, meaning abortions will remain legal up to 20 weeks. Gov. Kim Reynolds sought to revive the law after the US Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last year, joining the ranks of other states that have passed similar “heartbeat” measures. The law had been ruled unconstitutional based on state and federal law, with three of the six judge panel arguing that reinstating the measure would be legislating from the bench. Following the decision, Reynolds criticized the court and said she would consider her options.

The Epoch Times: Refinishing Hardwood Floors Is Hard Work
A mouse caused $35k damage to my hardwood floors. Refinishing them isn't easy. Use a massive drum sander, smaller hand-held disc sander and an edger dolly to get results.

Wait 72-96 hours before moving anything on the floors.
