American Thinker: Banana Republic: Thirty million for the Big Guy?
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer suggests the Biden family may have accepted $30 million from foreign sources, according to new bank records. Senator Ted Cruz also demands transparency from Joe Biden regarding a "mystery source" that paid him and his wife about $10 million in 2017. The potential corruption with these amounts is unprecedented in U.S. politics, and if Comer finds what he thinks he will in the bank records, it will be corruption on an unheard-of scale.

The Epoch Times: House Appropriator Shares Growing GOP Support to Cut DOJ, FBI Budget Amid Political Woes
Republicans, particularly members of the House Freedom Caucus, are calling for deeper cuts to the budget of the US Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). Rep. Ben Cline (R-Va.) said that the DOJ and FBI cuts already have the support of Subcommittee Chair Hal Rogers (R-Ky.) and other senior Republicans, and that “leadership is generally sharing our concerns”. Republicans have accused both the DOJ and the FBI of being politicized and/or weaponized against conservatives. Democrats have criticized the cuts, and Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-Md.), who sits on the House Appropriations Committee, told Politico that the move to block the FBI's new headquarters would put “our national security at risk”.
Flag And Cross: Bongino Reveals 'Weird' Occurrence Happened After Attacking Soros Family on His Show
Conservative commentators Dan Bongino and Jack Posobiec allege being hit with coordinated cyberattacks as they discussed left-wing billionaire George Soros and the Biden family's alleged history of receiving bribes. Bongino believes it was no accident that his website was hit with a denial-of-service attack during his discussion of the transfer of power from Soros to his son. Similarly, Posobiec claims his website was attacked immediately after it posted an article about alleged audio recordings of the Bidens receiving bribes, raising questions of whether the government should investigate these attacks on free speech.
Newsbusters: Tapper and Haugen Bemoan Free Speech on Facebook

She also complains that the platform has cut back on many of its unpopular censorship rules and demands that companies like Facebook report the social side of their ledger to ensure public transparency and accountability. Haugen ignores recent scaled-back restrictions on certain content related to COVID-19 and additional user control over their newsfeeds in response to user feedback. Conservative groups are fighting Big Tech censorship.

The Epoch Times: Biden and Democrats Already Face Uphill Battle for Florida's Hispanic Voters in 2024
As the 2024 election approaches, the Democratic Party may be facing trouble due to a steady rightward trend among Hispanic and Latino voters in Florida. Miami Mayor Francis Suarez has noted the trend among Miami-Dade voters over the past four elections, which could see the county, previously a guaranteed vote for Democrats, go red again. Florida’s Hispanic voters are shifting their focus away from socialism and social issues towards conservative values when it comes to family and education, while also being more in tune with the pro-business and pro-police policies that have taken hold over the years.

PJ Media: Could It Be That Anheuser-Busch Tanked Bud Light ON PURPOSE?
Did Anheuser-Busch purposefully tank their Bud Light brand to rid themselves of their traditional, male audience? A former employee has stepped forward to say yes. In an attempt to be more inclusive and appealing to woke audiences, the marketing team intentionally alienated their core customer base, resulting in a massive sales decline. If true, this decision appears to be a suicidal one from a business standpoint. Some believe the executives knew exactly what they were doing and are willing to lose billions in exchange for woke approval.
Fox News: Lebanese man suspected of trafficking stolen antiquities faces Interpol warrant
Georges Lotfi, an 82-year-old Lebanese man, is wanted by Interpol for trafficking stolen antiquities. Lotfi was previously questioned in Lebanon but denied charges of stealing antiquities and claimed to have bought them from archeologists before selling them to a US museum. However, it was later discovered that the 27 antiquities were stolen in 1981 from a warehouse in Lebanon. The US judicial authorities have sent the case related to Lotfi to Beirut and requested that Lebanese authorities follow up on him. Lotfi’s case is not the first of its kind and antiquities smuggling in Lebanon was frequent during the 1975-90 civil war.

Fox News: Mali's top diplomat demands UN peacekeepers leave the country after more than 10 years
Mali's foreign minister has demanded that UN peacekeepers leave the country, claiming they have failed to achieve their objectives and created distrust. The peacekeepers have struggled to manage an insurgency that began in 2012, with at least 170 peacekeepers killed since 2013. Diop's demand came as the mission's mandate was being discussed by the UN Security Council and troop withdrawals from countries including Germany and the UK were announced. Conflict analysts worry that Mali's junta is seeking to tighten its grip on power and respond to public protests calling for peace. The UN has yet to comment.

PJ Media: Lady Gaga Becomes Pfizer Shill
Lady Gaga has signed on with Pfizer to be the new face of Nurtec ODT, a migraine therapy. Pfizer has made Lady Gaga the focal point of its Nurtec ODT website and released a TV spot. The marketing team has signed the singer to give patients a million reasons to take the drug.
Pfizer is using Lady Gaga to sell Nurtec ODT, its migraine treatment drug. This tactic may produce high returns on investment, but using vapid pop stars to sell medicine is deeply perverse and cynical. Celebrities have been front and center of the propaganda push to get people vaccinated against COVID-19. Even those who have suffered vaccine injuries advocate for getting vaccinated out of a sense of social responsibility, which demonstrates the groupthink power that the liberal cult is capable of exerting upon its own members.

Fox News: German police appeal for images taken of attack in which Americans were pushed down steep slope
Police in southern Germany are appealing for evidence such as photos and videos from tourists who were present at Neuschwanstein castle near the scene of an attack where an American man allegedly pushed two women down a steep slope, killing one of them. The Marienbruecke is a popular vantage point for photos of Neuschwanstein. According to initial investigations, the suspect lured two female American tourists, aged 21 and 22, on a hiking path and led them onto a trail which led to a viewpoint. The youngest of the two women was first attacked by the suspect and afterwards, the older tried to rush to her aid and was then choked by the suspect and pushed down the slope. The 22-year-old remains in hospital while being responsive.
Fox News: Environmental activist shot to death in Honduras 6 months after activist brother slain
Environmental activist Oquelí Domínguez was shot and killed by unidentified gunmen at his family’s home in Tocoa, Honduras, six months after his brother and another activist were killed in a similar attack. Police are suggesting robbery as a possible motive, but Domínguez's eldest brother discounts it. Iron oxide mining inside the nearby Carlos Escaleras National Park has been a flashpoint for years, and last year, six activists were convicted for alleged actions against the mining operation, although the Supreme Court’s Constitutional Chamber later threw out the case. Honduras is considered one of the world’s most dangerous countries for environmental activists, having had eight such activists killed in 2023 alone.
