The Epoch Times: Officials Laud Congressional Oversight, but Can’t Promise Delivery of Requested Documents
Democratic lawmakers on the House Judiciary Committee’s Responsiveness and Accountability to Oversight Subcommittee attempted to adjourn a hearing to examine agency responsiveness to subpoenas and oversight requests. Republican staffers were rushing to get the subcommittee chairman and another congressman back to the hearing room to prevent Democrats from outnumbering them. The motion was eventually withdrawn but almost led to the GOP majority losing yet another effort to review how President Biden’s appointees are contributing to bureaucratic ineffectiveness. The subcommittee’s ranking member, Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.), proposed that the hearing was an attempt to defend Donald Trump, who faces a 37-count indictment, including counts of obstruction of justice and other grave felonies.
Red State: Michigan's House of Representatives Passes Legislation That Would Criminalize Hurting Someone's Feelings
The proposed Michigan law criminalizing speech causing "severe mental anguish" to others is subjective and vague. It could lead to charges against pastors or students who refuse to use "preferred" pronouns if someone claims their feelings were hurt. The law also allows for prison time or a re-education program for offenders, but it is unlikely to stand constitutional review. It is concerning that Democrats seem to be willing to criminalize speech they dislike.
Daily Wire: DeSantis Staunchly Backs Jewish Claim To Heartland Of Israel: Judea And Samaria
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis endorses the idea that the Jewish people have the strongest claim to the Biblical heartland of Israel, rejecting the term “West Bank” or “Occupied Territories” used by opponents. He believes that these are some of the most historic Jewish lands going all the way back to biblical times and Israel’s claim is the most superior. DeSantis also rips President Biden for not inviting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to visit the White House since he was re-elected prime minister.

Forbes: North Carolina’s GOP Legislature Approves Transgender Athlete Ban—Likely To Survive A Veto From Democratic Governor
North Carolina's state legislature has passed a bill banning transgender girls and women from participating in middle and high school sports, and barring state universities and community colleges from using athletes' preferred names or pronouns. The initiative, approved by a Republican-dominated supermajority on Thursday, designates teams by "biological sex" and allows any student who feels a transgender student has violated it to pursue litigation. The bill, which Democratic Governor Roy Cooper is expected to veto, brings North Carolina in line with over 20 other states that have passed similar restrictions this year.

The Epoch Times: Rep. Biggs Decries Biden DOJ for Re-Prosecuting Man Whose Sentence Was Commuted by Trump
The Biden administration is trying to retry former healthcare executive Philip Esformes for fraud, even though his sentence was commuted by former President Trump. Esformes had been sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2019 for leading a healthcare fraud scheme that included bribing state officials in Florida. The Department of Justice (DOJ) decided to retry Esformes on the “hung” counts, which legal experts say is unusual. Republicans claim this prosecution shows a two-tier justice system, but Democrats argue that wealthy white men are not the only victims of disparities in the justice system.

Red State: Victory: 'Pride Nights' to Be a Little Less Woke After NHL Caves on LGBTQ Jersey Issue
The NHL has announced that it will no longer be wearing Pride jerseys during Pride Night games due to them being "a distraction," although regular Pride Nights will still go ahead. Some NHL players have previously opted out of wearing the jerseys and/or participating in Pride Nights, citing religious reasons.

Forbes: Mateo Kovacic Transfer Sees Manchester City Move Quickly Ahead Of Ilkay Gundogan Departure
Chelsea's midfielder Mateo Kovacic will join Manchester City for an initial $32 million to replace Ilkay Gundogan, who left for Barcelona on a free transfer. Kovacic's style may differ from Gundogan's, but he brings quality, technical skills, and the ability to move the ball upfield. He is one of the best midfielders in the Premier League and has excelled in taking on the opposition and carrying the ball. His style rating is strong and will enable him to link up, dribble, retain the ball, and disrupt opposition moves when out of possession.
Kovacic's signing comes at a time when City has begun to disband its 2023 treble-winning team. Guardiola has paved the way for a new team style with fewer full-backs and more center-backs in his backline, which emphasizes the midfield's importance to the team's buildup. Kovacic will add a new dimension to the team, stretching the defense, covering channels and opening up space in the middle. He has a proven record of passing and making progressions even under pressure from the opposition, which is especially important when the center of the pitch can get crowded. The move is typically savvy, and the Croatian midfielder is available at a reasonable price compared to other midfielders with similar ability and experience.
