Breitbart: Pence: 15-Week National Abortion Ban Is 'Winning Issue' for GOP
Mike Pence believes a 15-week national abortion ban would be a "winning issue" for the Republican Party in 2024 elections, saying it is more important than politics. He called on every Republican candidate for the presidential nomination to support a minimum standard of a 15-week ban on abortion at the national level. Pence made the comments during an interview with "Fox News Sunday" and at the annual conference for the Faith & Freedom Coalition.

Whistleblower allegations on the Hunter Biden investigation have been made, prompting NBC News Justice Reporter Ryan Reilly to weigh the credibility of Attorney General Merrick Garland, a former federal judge, against the word of the Trump-appointed U.S. attorney.

The Epoch Times: Wagner Forces Have Entered Russian City of Rostov, Leader Says as Russia Charges Him With Inciting Armed Mutiny
Russia has opened a criminal investigation into Yevgeny Prigozhin, the founder of private military contractor Wagner, on charges of inciting armed mutiny against the Russian military leadership. Prigozhin had accused the Russian Defense Minister of ordering a rocket strike on Wagner's field camps in Ukraine, and threatened to take down the leadership of the Russian defense ministry in Moscow. He claimed his 25,000-strong militia had crossed the border from Ukraine and entered Rostov-on-Don, where the Russian military headquarters is located. Prigozhin's accusations have been denied by Russia's defense ministry, and he is now being investigated on charges of calling for an armed rebellion.

Breitbart: Congress: ‘Extremely High Risk’ of Shein, Temu Products Made with Chinese Slave Labor
The House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party warned of an "extremely high risk" of encountering products made by slaves when shopping with Chinese fast-fashion brands Shein and Temu. A report titled "Fast Fashion and the Uyghur Genocide" found the brands exploited the de minimis provisions of the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act to evade scrutiny. The provision grants exemptions from import taxes and extensive inspection requirements for shipments valued at $800 or less. Temu and Shein are exemplary of the "fast fashion" industry, which critics argue has negative environmental and social impacts.

Breitbart: Turkey Hikes Interest Rates, Lira Plunges as Erdogan Reverses Disastrous Policies
Turkey's central bank has raised interest rates from 8.5% to 15%, its first increase in rates in 27 months, in a bid to bring down inflation and boost the economy. President Erdogan, who has been known for his reluctance to raise rates, has in the past fired every bank governor who attempted to do so. The 6.5% hike has calmed Turkish investors temporarily, but it is unclear whether more rate hikes are on the horizon, with experts suggesting that raising interest rates might have a dramatic impact on Turkish households.

Fox News: On this day in history, June 24, 1997, Air Force releases 'The Roswell Report: Case Closed'
On this day in 1997, a 232-page report titled "The Roswell Report: Case Closed" was released by the U.S. Air Force, the second part of the government's disclosure about a mysterious incident near Roswell, New Mexico, in the 1940s. The report aimed to disclose the facts and bring them to light regarding a supposed UFO crash-landing on Earth.
On June 14, 1947, rancher W.W. ("Mac") Brazel found an unusual discovery on his ranch, around 80 miles northwest of Roswell, New Mexico, later discovered to be part of Project Mogul, a classified program where the U.S. government launched high-altitude balloons into the ionosphere. The discovery initially gained attention due to confusion surrounding its identity, which led to the revelation of the classified program.Project Mogul eventually morphed into an elaborate cover-up about a supposed crashed “alien spacecraft” that conspiracy theorists are still debating until this day.

The Epoch Times: Australian Bush Telehealth to Push on Despite Looming Restrictions
Midnight Health, a Brisbane-based start-up offering online medical consultations and electronic prescriptions, has received A$24m ($16m) in renewed investment from insurance company NIB. The firm serves around 85,000 patients, with 30% in rural areas. The Medical Board of Australia is restricting some forms of telehealth, saying online prescriptions without a real-time consultation present a risk to clinical judgement, but said the technology had opened up opportunities for disadvantaged people. The federal government will spend A$5.9m on long phone consultations this year. Criticism has come from some in the medical sector who argue remote patients still require personal interaction with their doctors.

Townhall: State Lawmakers Can and Must Protect Free Speech
Universities violate students' rights with Bias Reporting Systems and unconstitutional harassment policies originating from the DEI bureaucracy. The $10 billion dollar industry captures universities, leading to indoctrination and stifling of free speech. Taxpayers fund departments that implement these policies and the lawsuits that arise from violating students' rights. States must demand accountability and transparency from their legislatures and withhold funding to challenge universities to respect students' rights. By holding bad actors accountable and educating themselves and students on the principles and laws that underpin the country, states can take back their universities.

The Epoch Times: A Teen Who Killed 4 at a Michigan High School Is Showing 'Disturbing Behavior' in Jail
Ethan Crumbley, the teenager who killed four students in a mass shooting at Oxford High School in Michigan in 2021, has been exhibiting disturbing behavior in jail, according to prosecutors. They made the disclosure ahead of a hearing on whether Crumbley will serve a life sentence for the murders. The prosecutors did not offer any further details in public. Because Crumbley was 15 at the time of the shootings, he is entitled to a sentencing hearing where a judge will determine if a shorter sentence is appropriate based on testimony regarding family life, mental health, and other factors. The hearing starts on July 27.
The Epoch Times: Oklahoma Death Row Inmate Plans to Reject Chance for Clemency Despite Maintaining His Innocence
Anthony Sanchez, who is scheduled to be executed in September for the 1996 rape and murder of a University of Oklahoma student, plans to reject the chance for a clemency hearing, citing the governor’s previous denial of inmate clemency. Sanchez maintains his innocence and is no longer using court-appointed attorneys. The Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals rejected his claim in April for a hearing in which his father was accused of the murder. Sanchez insists that the DNA evidence was contaminated, but a former district attorney in charge of the case dismissed the claim, stating that there was no evidence pointing to anyone other than Sanchez himself.

Townhall: Leading for Life in America – One Year After Dobbs
The first anniversary of Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization marks a historic moment in the pro-life movement. However, pro-life advocates have faced opposition, including illegal protests, assassination plots, and attacks on pregnancy centers and churches. Despite this, the movement has gained momentum and protected the lives of 181,000 children through common sense state laws. The majority of Americans support limiting abortions and oppose late-term abortion and using taxpayer dollars to fund abortions. House Republicans have passed the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, but House Democrats have opposed it. The protection of life is a primary question of public policy for federal, state, and local policymakers.
