National Review: The Corner: Reject Right-Wing Marxism
The Corner: Reject Right-Wing Marxism
Lucchese argues that modern paleoconservatism is a distorted version of American conservatism, with recent years seeing a shift towards class warfare, racial grievance, and power politics. He exposes the dangers of embracing an ideology that diverges from core American conservative principles. He also highlights the rise of the "Marxist Right," who are reflexive contrarians and reject core conservative principles in favor of an American proletarian movement with a noxious racial dimension. Conservatives must resist this unsettling development in American politics and strive for improvement.

CNN Is Annoyed About Republicans’ Reaction to Hunter Plea Deal
CNN guests complain about Republicans criticizing the Hunter Biden plea deal, asserting that the charges were normal and that the Trump-appointed U.S. attorney had narrow the case down to relatively insignificant charges. The guests also imply that Hunter Biden's family connections contributed to his harsher treatment, describe the inability of the DOJ to come up with real charges as a failure of an investigation, and suggest that the DOJ should not have investigated Hunter's activities at all. The Republican Party criticized the Hunter Biden deal, accusing the DOJ of unfairly targeting Republicans, while the legal experts argued that the Republicans' views were inaccurate.

Horowitz: The once-in-a-generation chance to shift policy rightward is being squandered
Existential threats from political leaders facing growing backlash, creating narrow opportunity to shift Overton window. Republicans impotent in utilizing leverages to steer change and often side with Democrats on issues such as vaccines, green energy, and immigration. Lack of unified and effective political party and movement capable of identifying leverage points and harnessing GOP control. Failure to convert potential to actual policy outcomes will perpetuate liberal policies and make the public more liberal, as seen in Switzerland.


Spectator USA: Joe Biden’s Hunter problem is here to stay
Joe Biden’s Hunter problem is here to stay
Former President Donald Trump and Robert "Hunter" Biden, son of President Joe Biden, have both been involved in controversial and potentially criminal activities. Trump was charged with holding onto classified documents and possibly covering up payments to a porn star. He also attempted to overturn the results of the 2020 election, leading to the breach of the Capitol building by his supporters. Meanwhile, Hunter Biden had deals with shady foreign actors that potentially enriched his father, the then vice-president, and was paid absurdly well for sitting on the board of a Ukrainian energy company while his dad conducted American diplomacy in the country. Although he will plead guilty to two minor tax charges and a gun misdemeanor, the sweetheart deal he received has drawn criticism and sparked investigations into the "pattern of corruption, influence peddling, and possibly bribery" among the Biden family.

Government-Backed Censors Confuse 'Disinformation' With Mainstream Opinions - The New American
Government-backed censorship programs in the name of fighting disinformation pose a dangerous threat to free speech. The Department of Homeland Security's anti-terrorism program funded groups that demonize political opponents, including mainstream conservative organizations like Fox News and the Heritage Foundation. Additionally, the UK-based Global Disinformation Index, reportedly funded through State Department-backed entities, has been exposed for building advertiser exclusion lists targeting conservative and libertarian media while promoting left-of-center outlets. Government involvement in determining what is proper or improper information undermines the values of a free society.

American Thinker: The left’s control over the language of sexuality finally meets resistance
The left’s control over the language of sexuality finally meets resistance
The left has asserted control over language, notably in the case of sexual terminology. Calling genital mutilation "gender-affirming care" is an absurd example of their provocative approach to language. However, Twitter has now recognized the use of the term "cis" as a "slur," providing an opportunity to fight back against the trans brigade of the sexual left. Similarly, a new term, "gynosexual," has been recently introduced and is intended to suspend the concept of normality, but instead confuses and obscures while attempting to suspend the concept of normality.

The Epoch Times: Ukraine Strikes Bridge to Crimea, Say Russian-Appointed Officials
Ukraine Strikes Bridge to Crimea, Say Russian-Appointed Officials
Ukrainian missiles hit the road bridge connecting Crimea with Russian-held parts of the Kherson region, causing damage but no casualties, and forcing traffic to be diverted to another route. The bridge is one of the few links between Crimea and mainland Ukraine, and is used by the Russian military. Russian investigators claimed that France made one of the missiles, while the Russian-appointed governor of Kherson blamed the Kyiv government and suggested it may have used British missiles. Despite the damage, the “link between the Kherson region and Crimea continues to operate—a reserve route has been temporarily organised for vehicular traffic,” according to officials.

The leader of Wagner Mercenary Group, Yevgeny Prigozhin, has accused Russian President Vladimir Putin and the Ministry of Defense of "misleading" Russians regarding the progress of Ukraine's counteroffensive. Prigozhin disputed Putin's claims that Ukraine wasn't making headway in its offensive, saying that "huge chunks" of land had been handed over to the enemy. Ukrainian forces have been successful in repelling Russian troops from at least eight settlements in southern and eastern Ukraine.

White House Council of Economic Advisers Chair Jared Bernstein stated that the White House wants growth rates to be below trend to help with the realignment of supply and demand in the labor market.

The Economist: Turkish property prices are soaring
Turkish property prices are soaring
Turkish property prices have increased by over 480% in the past two years, with reckless interest-rate cuts and inflation being blamed for the surge. The increase has left even ordinary Istanbul properties beyond the reach of most locals, with average rents surpassing average incomes. The fear of a major earthquake and demand from displaced individuals also contributed to the price surge. Despite a recent bid to slow growth in the property market, analysts still anticipate prices will increase, albeit at a slower rate.

Fox News: Elite Air Force operators brace for uncertain future as Pentagon pulls plug on A-10 Warthog fleet
Elite Air Force operators brace for uncertain future as Pentagon pulls plug on A-10 Warthog fleet
The US Air Force's Tactical Air Control Party (TACP) will reduce by 44% from 3,700 to roughly 2,130 positions over the next three years. The cut is influenced by the retirement of the A-10 Warthog aircraft, which members of the elite TACP field use to coordinate air strikes from the ground. The Air Force has made no plans to retrain TACPs to other career fields. The TACP career field will be more imperative as the Department of Defense shifts its focus towards strategic competition after focusing on counterinsurgency for the past 20 years. The A-10 is expected to be fully retired by 2028 or 2029, and the F-35A Lightning II will be capable of providing close-air support in the future. Pushback against the decision has come from advocacy group, Troops-In-Contact who argue that the TACP cut will kill the Combat Air Support (CAS) profession and cripple America's capability in this area, costing lives in low-intensity conflicts.

The Economist: Vaping among schoolchildren has become a moral panic in Britain
Vaping among schoolchildren has become a moral panic in Britain
Vaping is popular among schoolchildren in Britain, with a quarter of pupils reportedly using e-cigarettes at Copthall School. While buying e-cigarettes is illegal for those under 18, vaping rates are drifting upwards, coinciding with the proliferation of cheap, disposable vapes from China heavily promoted on social media. However, excitable talk of a vaping "epidemic" is misplaced, as slightly more consumption of e-cigarettes has coincided with a welcome drop in smoking of old, more dangerous cigarettes that poses a higher health risk. While vaping's long-term health effects are not yet known, the UK government is encouraging adult smokers to "stop to swap," which is regarded as smart given the positive trend of smoking decline in the general population.

Daily Wire: Woman Accused Of Murdering Husband Is Suing His Estate To Collect Money
Woman Accused Of Murdering Husband Is Suing His Estate To Collect Money
Kouri Richins, a Utah woman accused of killing her husband with a fentanyl overdose, is now suing his estate to collect half of the equity in their home, worth about $1.9 million, and around $2 million in proceeds from his share of his stone masonry business. The couple’s prenuptial agreement stated that the business would remain the sole property of the husband but if he died during their marriage, his partnership interest in said business would transfer to his wife. Eric Richins died in March 2022. Kouri called 911 after finding her husband unresponsive and cold to the touch. She was later found to have sent deleted messages on her phone around the time of Eric’s death, and an autopsy revealed that Eric died of a fentanyl overdose. Kouri alleges that she and her husband were celebrating closing on a home she wanted to flip for her business, after which he became unresponsive in bed. She denies poisoning him.

PGA Tour to appear before Senate next month regarding questions about merger with LIV Golf
The Senate has arranged for executives from PGA Tour, Saudi golf interests, and LIV Golf to testify before them in a hearing next month. This is so Congress can investigate the deal between the entities, which has resulted in a new company. The deal, which was announced last year, involved Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund. The hearing has been scheduled by Sen. Richard Blumenthal to examine what impact the deal will have on the future of the PGA Tour and the US.

The original agreement intended to pool the commercial business and rights of the PGA Tour, Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund, and the European Tour in a new company. LIV Golf, as part of an offer to win over some of golf's biggest stars, offered signing bonuses of $100m or more in response to the PGA Tour pouring millions into its tournament purses. The executives, including PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan, will appear before the Senate to answer questions about the framework agreement that was announced on June 6, 2023.

Field & Stream: How Long Do Bears Hibernate?
How Long Do Bears Hibernate?
Bears are among the few mammal species that hibernate, with hibernation lasting up to seven or eight months in some areas. Hibernation length varies depending on factors such as the bear species, weather, food availability, age, and parental status. During hibernation, bears experience minimal physical activity, lower body temperature, and a reduction in heart, breathing, and metabolic rates. This extended period of winter dormancy helps bears survive the lean winter season by reducing their metabolic rate through inactivity and building up massive fat reserves in fall, enabling them to lose very little muscle mass or bone density during hibernation.

Forbes: Why Did ‘The Flash’ Bomb This Hard?
Why Did ‘The Flash’ Bomb This Hard?
DC's recent films have not been performing well, with The Flash being the latest financial disaster. Despite being a fun movie, it had a domestic opening of only $55 million, below even Black Adam's $67 million opening. The Last String of DCEU Movies Have Been Especially Bad, which has caused people to give up on this iteration of the DCEU.

Additionally, everyone knows James Gunn's DC Universe is coming and DC is moving on, making audiences lose interest. Ezra Miller's lack of star power compared to The Rock, Keaton's Batman being outdated, and just okay reviews on Rotten Tomatoes may have also contributed to The Flash's poor box office performance.

Whitehouse stated that unpredicted climate-related events could increase the deficit, and urged the importance of addressing the issue proactively.

The Heat You're Feeling Could Just Be El Nino
Climate analysts argue that El Nino, a weather phenomenon in the Pacific Ocean, is more likely to be the cause of temperature changes than CO2 emissions. The analysts state that El Nino corresponds more closely to shifting temperature patterns. A recent report has argued that if the temperatures in the fall and winter are unseasonably high, blame El Nino rather than fossil fuels. The current narrative on climate change argues that CO2 emissions are to blame for the rising temperatures, primarily from burning fossil fuels, which trap heat in the earth’s atmosphere .
