Daily Wire: Far-Left Teachers Union Boss Randi Weingarten To Join Council To Advise Homeland Security
The president of the American Federation of Teachers, Randi Weingarten, has been appointed to the Homeland Security Academic Partnership Council by DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Weingarten, who supported strict school shutdowns during COVID-19 and endorses Democrat candidates, is one of 20 people on the council, which advises on school safety and research priorities, as well as developing career opportunities for the Department of Homeland Security (, ). Critics of the move have accused Weingarten of being the "last person" who should be advising on school safety, after recent text messages revealed her lobbying of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to keep school restrictions tight (, ).
The Right Scoop: Eager reporters go after testy KJP over Hunter Biden whistleblower report [VIDEO]
![Eager reporters go after testy KJP over Hunter Biden whistleblower report [VIDEO]](https://therightscoop.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/kjp-620x300.jpg)
Reporters at the White House briefing grilled KJP on the Hunter Biden whistleblower report, specifically on the smoking gun text message. KJP repeatedly avoided answering, leading to more questions from different reporters. This is a record of reporters pressing on a Republican-revealed issue like Hunter Biden, with KJP stonewalling the questions. Meanwhile, AG Garland denied the claims in the whistleblower report and defended the integrity of the Justice Department.
PJ Media: When Will There Be a Day of Reckoning For Those Who Suppressed the COVID Origins Lab Leak Theory?
The declassified report on the origins of COVID-19 is a whitewash, with both natural and laboratory-associated origins remaining plausible hypotheses. However, recent investigations have found evidence supporting the lab leak theory, implicating the Wuhan Institute of Virology and U.S. government-funded gain-of-function research. The implications are significant, as the virus may have been unleashed due to substandard safety protocols and covered up by the Chinese government.
Efforts to shame or suppress individuals questioning preferred narratives of government scientists are short-sighted. The same people who did this are worried about election disinformation, but giving them power to decide what is true and false suppresses legitimate debate. The American people are poorer for it.
The Right Scoop: BREAKING: Former Trump campaign official cooperating with DOJ on 2020 ‘fake electors plot’
A former Trump campaign official, Michael Roman, is reportedly cooperating with the Department of Justice special counsel's probe of Jan. 6th election interference. This could be the first case of a key player cooperating in the "fake electors" plan. The fake electors plan involved creating pro-Trump slates of electors in key swing states that Joe Biden narrowly won in 2020 to give then-Vice President Mike Pence a reason to challenge the certification of the 2020 Electoral College vote count during a joint session of Congress. As several people involved testified before a grand jury last week, Mark Levin and others have pointed out that there is nothing illegal with having alternate state electors. It is up to Congress to decide whether to accept or reject these electors. This phony investigation is just another farce.

Russian mercenary group, the Wagner Group, led by Yevgeny Prigozhin, has launched a rebellion against the Russian government and is marching towards Moscow.

Forbes: Why The Real Success Of Pixar's Elemental May Be Too Subtle To See
Pixar's Elemental, a love story between fire and water elements, has received mixed reviews, with some critics describing it as a "misfire". The movie has not performed as well at the box office as expected, with a debut of $29.5 million, the lowest of any Pixar film since 1995. However, despite the negative reception, the film's essential premise of outsiders integrating with locals and the subliminal visuals used to reinforce the story make it a refreshing change from the typical Pixar formula.

Fox News: Sons of Titan sub crewmember Hamish Harding remember adventurer as 'loving father'
British businessman and adventurer Hamish Harding was one of five crew members who died when the OceanGate Expedition's Titan submersible suffered a "catastrophic implosion" during a voyage to see the Titanic wreckage. Action Aviation, Harding's company, released statements from his sons paying tribute to their father on social media. The other passengers were OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, father-and-son Shahzada and Suleman Dawood, who are members of one of Pakistan’s wealthiest families; and Paul-Henry Nargeolet, a former French navy officer and leading Titanic expert.
After the loss of the sub, there was an international search and rescue effort that lasted for days before authorities found the remains of the sub using a robotic vehicle. "The debris is consistent with the catastrophic loss of the pressure chamber. Upon this determination, we immediately notified the families," U.S. Coast Guard Rear Admiral John Mauger told reporters Thursday. "On behalf of the United States Coast Guard and the entire unified command, I offer my deepest condolences to the families." Harding's sons praised their father as a "loving father" and inspirational adventurer.

Newsbusters: Hollywood Wouldn’t Cancel Ezra Miller (But Audiences Just Did)
Ezra Miller, who has a history of assault and other troubling behavior, was not canceled despite being favored to star in "The Flash." However, the film's weak debut might suggest audiences have their own Cancel Culture standard. Despite high pre-release hype and nostalgia-driven casting, "The Flash" earned a disappointing $60 million during its debut and might get steamrolled by other upcoming blockbusters. It remains unclear whether Miller's past behavior played a role in the film's lackluster performance.
