Daily Wire: Chicago City Council Approves $51 Million To Fund Illegal Immigrant Housing
Chicago City Council approves $51M in funding to house and feed the influx of migrants arriving at the southern border, sparking criticism from black residents who are calling for more funding for their own community. Some argue that the money should be used for reparations payments instead. Mayor Johnson claims that the city is facing a humanitarian crisis and will do everything in its power to support the new arrivals. This news falls under the hashtag .
The New American: Can the Consequences of Mass Migration be Reversed?
The Overton Window shifted on migration due to the Trump presidency and America First movement. Republicans have become more "hardline" on immigration and conversations about its negative consequences are now mainstream. But can we realistically reverse decades of migration? Definitive action is necessary, including securing the border, drastically reducing legal migrants, and a major repatriation program to deport illegal aliens. Deportation is the next logical step, as the presence of millions of unassimilated migrants weakens American culture. Assimilation efforts should also be focused on English education and instilling pride in our country.

American Thinker: Gee, why would anyone want to steal Hunter Biden's art gallery financial records?
The Georges Berges Gallery, which represents Hunter Biden's art, has contacted the police after fearing a potential hack of its financial records. The gallery is under scrutiny due to its connection to the Biden family and Republican-led probes into their financial dealings. Hunter Biden's artwork has been dubbed as generic post-zombie formalism and has been criticized for its high-selling prices. While the paintings themselves may not be valuable, the financial records of the gallery seems to be of interest, so the hack may have been an attempt to obtain information about who was buying the paintings and for how much. The potential use of non-transparent sales could create national security problems.
The Epoch Times: Rep. Jordan Investigates FBI's Role in Trump Special Counsel Probe After Durham Report
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) has written to Attorney General Merrick Garland asking for answers about a special counsel investigation into former President Donald Trump. Jordan claims that the Special Counsel’s report documents how the FBI abused its law-enforcement authorities to achieve a political end to hamstring the campaign and presidency of President Trump. He noted FBI Deputy Assistant Director Peter Strzok's involvement in initiating the Crossfire Hurricane investigation of then-candidate Trump, despite failing to carry out basic investigatory steps beforehand. Jordan's letter goes on to argue that these abuses necessitate that the FBI share details on the federal-level Smith probe into Trump, which could possibly include seditious conspiracy charges of the former president tied to Jan. 6, according to legal analysts interviewed by The Epoch Times.
American Thinker: Debunking another false claim that Trump violated national security law
Federal prosecutors have obtained an audio recording of former President Donald Trump acknowledging he held onto a classified Pentagon document about a potential attack on Iran, undercutting his argument that he declassified everything. However, Trump cannot be found guilty of illegally possessing classified material as he possesses plenary power over document classification and other national security issues. Joe Biden and Mike Pence, both of whom illegally possessed classified documents, are going to walk away untouched.
The Epoch Times: Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Banned by Major Social Media Site, Campaign Pages Blocked
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Instagram account, which has been banned before for posting vaccine-related content, has been suspended again, prompting the Democrat presidential candidate to accuse the social media sites of undemocratic behaviour and censorship. Elon Musk offered to conduct a discussion with Kennedy via Twitter Spaces, which he accepted. Kennedy questioned why he had received a 180-day automatic suspension of his TeamKennedy account when using his TeamKennedy email to set up Instagram accounts.
Kennedy has been generating headlines since announcing his 2024 presidential campaign earlier this year. He has accused the CIA of involvement in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963 and has demanded that President Biden release additional classified materials related to the killing. While trailing well behind Biden in the polls, Kennedy remains optimistic, saying he is doing "much better than expected" and predicting he will gain many Republican crossovers.
National Review: Comer and Wray Strike Compromise, Staving Off Oversight Committee Contempt Citation
FBI Director Chris Wray has reached a compromise with House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, agreeing to bring the subpoenaed document regarding a bribery scheme involving foreign actors and now-President Joe Biden to the House on Monday. The document will be reviewed by Comer and the committee's ranking member, Jamie Raskin, in a secure Capitol Hill room, rather than being redacted and viewed at FBI headquarters. The compromise satisfies the committee's need for information while respecting the FBI's concerns for informant confidentiality.
National Review: In the Mainstream Media’s Dreams, Joe Biden ‘Won’ the Debt-Ceiling Standoff
The press has declared Joe Biden the winner of the debt-ceiling saga, but it is unclear how this narrative squares with the reality of the deal he struck with Speaker Kevin McCarthy. Biden's approach involved refusing to negotiate until the GOP self-destructed, a strategy endorsed by Democratic boosters in the media, which proved to be self-defeating. By the end of May, polling revealed that the public sided with the GOP's position, and Biden eventually caved to pressure from his own party. The fan fiction circulating about Biden's victory is disregarding reality and substituting it with a preferred narrative.
Fox News: Person alleging Biden criminal bribery scheme is a 'highly credible' FBI source used since Obama admin: Source
An FBI confidential human source who has been used in multiple investigative matters dating back to the Obama administration provided information that then-Vice President Joe Biden was involved in a $5 million criminal bribery scheme with a foreign national in exchange for influence over policy decisions. The individual has been consistently reviewed by the FBI and is highly credible.
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer and GOP Sen. Chuck Grassley were approached by a whistleblower alleging that the FBI was in possession of a document detailing information provided by a confidential human source alleging Biden's involvement in the bribery scheme. The FBI has agreed to bring the physical document to Capitol Hill for lawmakers to review in a secure SCIF in response to a subpoena by Comer, and is expected to deliver a briefing on the allegations.
Fox News: Elon Musk invites RFK Jr. to Twitter Spaces discussion after Instagram bans campaign account
Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was invited by Elon Musk to participate in a live Twitter discussion after his Instagram account was blocked for 180 days. Kennedy agreed to participate in Musk's "Spaces" feature, discussing Twitter's censorship requests by the government and his plans to put a stop to it if elected. The invitation came after Kennedy agreed with Musk's stance on Twitter's lack of "actual choice" but to comply with censorship requests.
Fox News: Republican Party releases requirements for presidential candidates hoping to make first 2024 primary debate
Republican presidential candidates must reach 1% in three national polls or 1% in two national polls and 1% in a poll conducted in one of the four early voting states in the GOP presidential nominating calendar. They must also have 40,000 unique donors to their campaign committee and sign a pledge agreeing to support the eventual Republican presidential nominees and not participate in any non-RNC sanctioned debates for the rest of the 2024 election cycle. The first debate, hosted by Fox News, will be held on August 23 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, with a second debate on August 24 if necessary.
Red State: Could Democrats' Latest Problem for 2024 Be Millennials Moving to the Right?
Millennials are shifting to the political right as they age, with those aged approximately 34-43 leading the trend. Studies show that voters in most political cohorts studied under the age of 50 tended to vote more for Republican candidates in 2020 than in 2012. While younger millennials may remain in the Democrat camp, the older portion has turned away from the left and shifted their focus to issues such as critical race theory and transgenderism in education, and America's involvement in Ukraine. The question is whether fear of cancel culture and backlash from their peers will keep them from becoming politically active on the right.
Fox News: Jen Psaki claims Biden is 'comfortable' to many GOP voters because he's 'White' and 'older'
Former White House press secretary Jen Psaki claims that President Joe Biden's success partly comes from his being an "older White man," which makes him more "comfortable" to some of the Republican base. Psaki mentioned how the GOP struggled to beat Biden in the 2020 presidential election because they didn't manage to make him seem "extreme" or "offensive." She also argued that the Republican Party has underestimated Biden many times in the past, which has served him well.
Daily Wire: Comer To Review FBI Doc Containing $5 Million Biden Bribery Allegation
The House Oversight Committee will review an FBI document on Monday that alleges that President Joe Biden received a multi-million-dollar bribe from an “adversarial country.” The document will not be handed over to Congress. Chairman Comer has been clear that anything short of producing the FD-1023 form to the House Oversight Committee is not compliance with his subpoena.
Forbes: Pence Cleared As DOJ Ends Classified Documents Investigation
The DOJ has cleared former VP Mike Pence of any wrongdoing in the discovery of classified White House documents found at his house after leaving office. Multiple classified documents were found at Pence's home in Indiana in January and February, along with additional non-classified materials found at offices for Pence's Advancing America Freedom organization, prompting the federal investigation. Pence's team is "pleased but not surprised" with the investigation closing, noting the former VP's cooperation with federal authorities. Pence is expected to formally announce his 2024 presidential campaign on June 7.

Fox News: A look at Spain's clam-digging 'farmers of the sea'
In northern Spain, clam collectors use traditional methods handed down through generations to gather two types of clams each day. The collectors sell their catch at fish markets, where it is distributed to fishmongers across the country before ending up as expensive dishes at restaurants and homes. The industry is cyclical and sustainable, with harvested areas cordoned off to allow them to recuperate. The job is regulated and guarantees a wage, which provides some economic independence for mostly women workers who consider it a comfortable job.
Fox News: US Embassy to Holy See flies Pride flag in Rome
The U.S. diplomatic mission to the Holy See hung a pride flag for Pride Month on its headquarters in Rome to show solidarity with the LGBTQI+ community against discrimination. While the Catholic Church teaches that same-sex attraction is not a sin, sodomy and other homosexual acts are considered a “grave depravity.” The U.S. State Department defended the move, saying America’s strength is found in its diversity, and U.S. embassies and consulates develop individual plans to raise awareness of violence, human rights abuses, and discrimination targeting the LGBTQI+ community.

The New American: How Misguided Biblical Fatalism is Leading Conservatives to Defeat
Many Christians believe that Second Coming is near, but no one knows when it will happen. Christians should not become fatalistic over social decay. Christians should restore civilization by purifying themselves, their families, and communities. We should watch for signs of the times, but not give up. Fatalism works in favor of the globalist-Marxist cabal and neutralizes Christian opposition. Avoid being misled by those with ulterior motives.

The Epoch Times: Fentanyl Is Silently Killing California's Youth as Epidemic Spreads Across America
Fentanyl, a powerful synthetic opioid, is killing thousands of youth and adults in California as drug traffickers lace it in other drugs like cocaine, heroin, and prescription drugs. Fentanyl-related deaths have increased by 1,027 percent since 2017, from 537 to 6,054 deaths in 2021, with 11 times as many fentanyl deaths in at least 55 percent of all fatal overdoses. California lawmakers have proposed bills to combat the crisis and prosecute drug dealers, but few have been passed. Some lawmakers believe education and rehab are suitable approaches to helping stop the crisis, while others support Alexandra’s Law (SB44) that charges drug dealers with murder if someone dies from a drug they sold that was laced with fentanyl.

Flag And Cross: Police Chief Sounds Alarm After 27 Kids Disappear in Two-Week Span
Dozens of children between the ages of 12 and 17 have gone missing in the Cleveland area, leaving police worried that they may be victims of gang activity or sex trafficking. According to Cleveland Police records, 52 area residents under the age of 18 went missing between May 2 and May 31, with police stating that the number of missing teens is "troubling" and authorities aren't sure what is going on with some of these kids.

The Epoch Times: Former ICE Agent Calls for Sanctions on Mexico, China Over Drug Trafficking
The US government has imposed sanctions on 17 Chinese and Mexican companies believed to be involved in the production of illicit fentanyl. However, former Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent Victor Avila has suggested that the real targets of the sanctions should be the Chinese and Mexican governments, whose involvement in the drug trade is seen as fundamental to the problem. Avila recommended targeting money laundering operations as another means of thwarting criminal organisations. Avila also suggested that US officials raise awareness among youth about the dangers of fentanyl.
