The Federalist: Joe Biden Is Not OK
President Biden's mental acuity has significantly deteriorated, marked by his quirky aphorisms and inability to articulate simple ideas. His gibberish and inability to express plans in words that make sense downplay his competency as the leader of the United States, but without any fact-checks or discussions on the 25th Amendment, he continues to govern the country. Biden's lapses are characteristic of an 80-year-old scatterbrain, but his supporters need to stop pretending he is okay.

Liberty Nation: Will Republican About-Face on Mail-In Voting Make a Difference?
Trump's messaging against mail-in voting may have cost him the 2020 election. Republicans are now pushing for "Bank Your Vote," a voter initiative that encourages ballot harvesting where legal, despite the previous messaging. Trump and rival Ron DeSantis support the strategy, but it remains to be seen if the base will get on board. Higher turnout does almost always favor Democrats, and ballot harvesting is not without criticism. The GOP must decide whether to embrace or reject the practice for the 2024 presidential race.
The Federalist: Did The FBI Bar Delaware From Probing Alleged Biden Bribery?
Sen. Chuck Grassley asked whether bribery was within the investigation into Hunter Biden, implying that the FBI's scope was too narrow to probe a confidential source's reporting. Grassley's questioning also revealed the initial answer that Americans need to assess if the DOJ and FBI sabotaged a criminal probe into the Biden family. It remains unclear if bribery was ever within the scope of the investigation being handled by U.S. Attorney David Weiss, and agents may have been too restricted to probe the allegations raised by the confidential source.

Newsbusters: Column: Pride Police Insist Free Speech Is 'Unsafe'
Pride Month is only about one side of the LGBTQ debate, with no room for differing opinions. GLAAD is a primary enforcer of the LGBTQ Speech Code, pushing for censorship on social media platforms, with Twitter being called a “cesspool” for not being censored enough. GLAAD's goal is “accelerating acceptance” by squashing all contrary opinions, and they are now demanding government intervention in content moderation.
The Epoch Times: AMC Cancels Documentary Detailing Long-Term Health Implications of Gender Transitioning After Backlash
AMC Theaters has canceled screenings of a documentary film called “No Way Back: The Reality of Gender-Affirming Care” following protests from the Queer Trans Project, a black and trans-led organization. The documentary examines the medical treatments and care received by five young people for gender dysphoria and the long-term implications of gender medicalization, featuring input from 12 specialist experts. The Queer Trans Project claimed that AMC Theaters showed the “anti-trans” documentary in theaters across the US and urged supporters to demand its cancellation, a move that was duly implemented after what the film’s distributors described as “recent histrionic and intolerant calls to silence it.”

The Epoch Times: Oil Mixed on China Rates Cut, Growth Outlook
Oil prices slipped as China’s rate cut was less aggressive than some expected. Brent crude was up 0.6% at $76.56 a barrel while US WTI crude was down from Friday’s close at $71.65.

Although China’s 2023 crude oil demand is expected to rise 3.5% on last year, Russia is set to increase seaborne diesel and gasoil exports this month, outweighing cuts made by OPEC and its allies. Policymakers from the European Central Bank called for more rate hikes amid risks of higher inflation, while the market awaits future rate clues from US Federal Reserve Chair, Jerome Powell.

The Epoch Times: Yuan Dips After China Cuts Rates; Swedish Crown, Aussie Slide
China’s cuts to its one-year and five-year loan prime rates, which they have held steady for the past 10 months, to shore up the country’s slowing economic recovery have caused the yuan to fall to a seven-month low. The Swedish crown followed suit, dropping 0.4% to its lowest level since 2009 against the euro, due to concerns related to the country’s real estate sector, which makes up 80% of housing debt. The Riksbank is expected to hike rates next week, which could cause further unease.

Researchers at TU Delft and Swiss technical university EPFL have developed a tomato-picking robot using artificial intelligence tool ChatGPT.
