Liberty Nation: RINO Under the Radar: Thom Tillis Censured by NC GOP
Conservative Senator Thom Tillis has been censured by the North Carolina Republican state convention due to "blatant violations of our party platform", which have left some frustrated over his voting record on guns, immigration, and gay marriage. While Tillis has attempted to work on bipartisan deals in Congress, which some argue have left conservatives dissatisfied with his record, he has been cosponsor of a bill that provides 'a pathway to citizenship' for a large group of illegal aliens. Furthermore, Tillis worked with Democrats in utilizing the school-shooting tragedy in Uvalde, TX, to craft gun control legislation. He has also expressed explicit support for Democrat policies, such as his vote for the Respect for Marriage Act and his condemnation of President Trump's move to ban transgender individuals from serving in the US armed forces.

National Review: For DEI Supporters, Perpetuation of Racism Is Good Business
Anti-racism activism seems to be aimed at perpetuating racism rather than ending it, according to academic professor Chris Caldwell. Caldwell argues that if activist groups do not have a sacrificial telos, or an intention of becoming obsolete when racism is eradicated, they are effectively just special interest groups. His view is that while missions can change, it seems many institutions and protocols being created around anti-racism imply that racism is here to stay, rather than that it is something they are trying to eliminate. Caldwell is therefore warning against those who make their livelihood by fighting racism, suggesting that they find “racism” and maintain it to keep themselves employed.

Liberty Nation: Blinken Goes to Beijing – But Why?
US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, will visit China on June 18 to discuss repairing US-China relations. However, China's use of meetings for international theater, and their aggressive behavior, leaves the US in a position of weakness. How much longer will the US prioritize diplomacy for diplomacy's sake, and what can be expected given the long-standing thorny issues between the two countries? The purpose of the visit seems aspirational rather than substantive, and America's stance of non-interference in China's internal affairs may make it difficult to find a reasonable outcome.
Foreign Policy: The Next Global Superpower Isn’t Who You Think
The world has moved from a unipolar to a nonpolar "G-Zero" geopolitical landscape, caused by Russia's exclusion from the Western-led international order, China's failure to become more American, and Western neglect of citizens left behind by globalization. As a result, we now have multiple overlapping world orders, comprising a unipolar security order dominated by the US, a multipolar economic order where power is widely shared, and a rapidly emerging digital order where technology companies are the dominant geopolitical players, controlling aspects of society, the economy, and national security. The future of the digital order will depend on whether tech companies align with governments or preserve the existing divide, leading to a technology cold war between the US and China, a globalized digital order, or a technopolar order dominated by tech companies.

Forbes: Why Veteran Market Technicians Are Worried About The Summer Stock Rally
The S&P 500 Index has reached a new bull market territory after rising 23% from its October lows. However, market veterans have warned that it may only be a head-fake. The concentration in large cap stocks, a divergence from small cap stocks, and the prolonged recovery period could signal a weakening bull market and present a riskier environment for investors.

Washington Free Beacon: 'There's No Such Thing as Life Without Bloodshed'
Cormac McCarthy, famous for his novels such as All the Pretty Horses and The Road, passed away at the age of 89. He was a private man who focused on depicting the South, misery, and the secretly Southern heart that beats in the Western American man. Though he achieved everything a novelist now can achieve, he is a sign of American decadence as his works embody the mingling of beauty and terror. McCarthy's critics call his manly prose a conjuring of the forgotten, terrifying past that we are now vulnerable to.

Washington Free Beacon: When ‘Harm Reduction’ Becomes Harm Promotion: Yale Study Shows Biden's Drug Policy is Misguided
The Biden administration's support for harm reduction facilities, which distribute drug paraphernalia and encourage safer drug consumption, is harming addicts' chances of recovery, according to a Yale study. The research indicated that social pressure, family responsibility, and spirituality helped addicts recover, rather than harm reduction initiatives that blur the line between harm reduction and harm promotion. Despite this, the Biden administration has administered "smoking kits" to addicts and is considering implementing "safe injection sites" across the country. Some cities, such as San Francisco, have taken harm reduction to controversial new levels, even erecting billboards encouraging people to take deadly opioids "with friends."

Fox News: Portland resident sounds alarm over city's 'Safe Rest Village' program: Area of 'organized crime and drugs'
Amid complaints of loud noises and public drug dealing, Portland's "Safe Rest Village" program for the homeless has come under fire. The program provides the homeless with shelter, toilets, showers, and more, and is run by California-based non-profit Urban Alchemy. Some residents living near the Safe Rest Village site at Peninsula Crossing have complained about the program's failures in addressing the root of the problem such as mental health and drug addiction. Resident Angela Todd accused the state of profiting from people's suffering and argued that the government and its NGOs are looking to make people dependent on them.
