Daily Wire: Senator Klobuchar Chuckles When Asked About Hunter Biden Going To Event Attended By Merrick Garland
Senator Amy Klobuchar laughed off a question about whether it was appropriate for Hunter Biden to attend a state dinner with Attorney General Merrick Garland just days after being charged with tax crimes. Hunter Biden will reportedly enter a diversion program after pleading guilty to failing to pay $100,000 in taxes for 2017 and 2018, as well as to illegally purchasing a firearm in 2018. Klobuchar acknowledged the perception issue of Hunter Biden attending the event with Garland but emphasized that an independent prosecutor, who was a registered Republican and well-respected, had made the decision.
Breitbart: McCarthy Forecasts Garland Impeachment if Whistleblower Allegations True
Speaker McCarthy suggests impeachment of AG Garland if whistleblower allegations against U.S. Attorney Weiss wanting special counsel in Hunter Biden probe are true. Weiss allegedly wanted charges against Biden in DC but did not have authority to charge in other districts, according to IRS agent Gary Shapley Jr. McCarthy calls for Weiss to provide answers to Judiciary Committee.
AG Garland denies Weiss ever requested special counsel for Hunter Biden probe. Hunter Biden reached a plea deal with DOJ, pleading guilty to two counts of "willful failure to pay federal income tax" and entering a pretrial diversion program for a firearm offense with no prison time. Whistleblower allegations come amid calls for answers and reconciliation of disparities.
The Epoch Times: EV Mandate Untenable, Especially for Rural Virginians: Republican Delegate
Virginia's Republican lawmakers are pushing to reverse the Clean Car law that requires car dealerships to include 35% electric vehicles (EVs) by 2026 and 100% by 2035. Delegate Tony Wilt has introduced legislation to halt the 2035 EV sales mandate, citing concerns about supplying EVs to rural consumers, the cost of EVs, and the strain on the electric grid. Virginia has seen EV sales rise from 20,000 to over 65,000 since implementing a law similar to California’s. However, Wilt believes the state cannot meet the upcoming EV sales goals.
Fox News: Trump lead grows following indictment, one factor continues to be thorn in Biden's side with voters: poll
Former President Donald Trump remains the GOP frontrunner after being indicted on federal charges in early June, with 51% of Republican voters listing him as their number one choice in a new poll. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis came in second with 22% of the votes. Nearly half of GOP voters surveyed are skeptical over whether Trump should continue to lead the Republican Party. A total of 77% of GOP primary voters stated the federal charges against Trump gave them either minor concerns (14%) or no real concerns (63%). 64% of Republican voters also said the various indictments and investigations Trump faces are politically motivated.
In a hypothetical match against DeSantis, Trump maintains the lead with 60% of Republican voters backing him, while in a hypothetical Trump-Biden battle, President Joe Biden comes out on top with 49% of the vote to Trump's 45%. However, 68% of those surveyed stated Biden's mental and physical health was a major/moderate concern for them. Nearly half of GOP voters said they agree with Trump remaining the party's leader, with 21% saying it was time to consider other leaders. Trump appeared in court in connection to the classified documents case, slamming the federal indictment as "sham" and "election interference" by the Biden administration in a speech at his property.

The Federalist Papers: Disturbing Chant Breaks Out at NYC Drag March: ‘We’re Coming for Your Children'
Participants in a New York City drag march have gone viral after being filmed chanting “We’re here. We’re queer. We’re coming for your children,” but some defenders have claimed that marchers were mocking conservatives. However, Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has criticized the march for “grooming minors to have mastectomies and castration.” She tweeted in support of her “Protect Children’s Innocence Act,” which aims to make gender-affirming care illegal for minors. This comes after the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus was criticized for a song insinuating they would “convert” and “corrupt” children. Both songs have been accused of promoting LGBT indoctrination.

Breitbart: Russia Launched Large Series of Missiles on Ukraine Amid Wagner Mutiny
Russia launched a series of missile strikes against Ukraine using Iranian-made drones and 40 Kh-101/Kh-555 cruise missiles, resulting in at least five fatalities. Ukrainian forces reportedly shot down some missiles and drones, but Russia claimed to have successfully hit its targets. Despite Western military aid, Ukraine's counteroffensive is struggling to make gains, with President Zelensky admitting it is “going slower than expected” and the former UK Chief of Defence Staff warning of underestimating Russia. The Wagner mercenary group's failed rebellion against the Kremlin could have disrupted the Russian attack on Ukraine, but did not.
The Epoch Times: Russian Official Says Parliament Working on Law to Regulate Wagner Mercenary Group
Russian parliament is considering how to regulate the Wagner mercenary group, after an attempted uprising led by its head, Yevgeny Prigozhin. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov revealed a deal had been brokered with Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko to allow Prigozhin into exile in Belarus without prosecution, and offer contracts directly with the Russian military to troops who did not support the march. The move has led to speculation over the future of Putin and the war in Ukraine, with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken describing it as “extraordinary”.

Forbes: The Wagner Mutiny: Was It Genuine Or Choreographed? And What Now?
It is unclear whether the recent events involving Wagner and Prigozhin were a choreographed political theater or a genuine rebellion. Putin has encouraged internal enmity and jockeying among Siloviki, using one side to keep the others in check. If it was an act of mutiny, the endgame is unclear, but the possibility of Wagner being extracted, going legit, and being absorbed into the regular army has been suggested. It is also possible that Prigozhin simply wanted out and that his rebellion blew up into something much bigger than he intended.
Fox News: Putin's deal with warlord shows 'actual weakness' amid Russia unrest: expert
Former US Ambassador to Russia John Sullivan sees Putin's agreement with the Wagner Group as a sign of weakness. Wagner Group leader Yevgeny Prigozhin took his convoy towards Moscow to demand the removal of Russian commanders in the ongoing war in Ukraine. However, Prigozhin has now agreed to go into exile in Belarus as part of a truce brokered by Putin. This has led to questions regarding Putin's dependence on Belarus, which is considered a "vassal state of Russia". Sullivan called Wagner a "corrupt organization" and Prigozhin a "career criminal". The US considers it a transnational criminal organization.
Fox News: GOP rep demands declassified COVID origins report, criticizes DNI summary of findings: 'Not sufficient'
Rep. Mike Turner demands release of intelligence surrounding the origins of COVID-19, including the U.S. funding of research to create mutant viruses at a Wuhan lab .

Breitbart: Bereaved Israeli Rabbi Condemns Vigilante Action Against Palestinians
Rabbi Leo Dee, who lost his wife and daughters to a Palestinian terror attack, has condemned the vigilante actions of Jewish settlers against Palestinian villages in response to new Palestinian attacks. Dee reaffirmed Israel's permanence in the West Bank but called vigilantism a "desecration of God." He called for the elimination of terror to be left to professionals, adding that killing terrorists is humane, while terrorizing innocent Arabs is a crime against humanity. CNN's Christiane Amanpour later apologized for referring to Dee's family as being killed in a "shootout."
Breitbart: Biden Reverses Trump Policy; Boycotts Research in Judea, Samaria
The Biden administration reversed Trump's policy allowing U.S. universities to cooperate with Israeli institutions in Judea and Samaria, in a move some see as an academic boycott. The decision was made two years ago but only came to light after Ariel University researchers applied for a U.S. grant. The policy change resembles the anti-Israel academic boycott encouraged by the BDS movement.

A medical doctor with two decades of experience claims that there are serious risks associated with the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, Gardasil, that outweigh its benefits.

Smith is the all-time leading receiver in the Broncos’ franchise history and has impressive stats, including 849 catches for 11,389 yards and 68 touchdowns.

PJ Media: The Effort to Explain How the Brain Produces Consciousness Is Still a Mystery
Scientists have made intriguing bets over the years, including economist Julian Simon and author Paul Ehrlich's wager in 1980 where the latter was forced to pay $576.07 after predicting a rise in raw materials' prices. In 1998, neuroscientist Christof Koch bet philosopher David Chalmers that the way the brain's neurons produce consciousness would be discovered by 2023. Despite advances in technology, the problem remains unsolved, with competing hypotheses suggesting that consciousness is either a 'structure' formed in the posterior cortex of the brain during specific experiences or arises from the transmission of information across an interconnected network involving the prefrontal cortex.
The Federalist Papers: Ungodly: Scientists Create First Synthetic Human Embryos in Near Sidestep of UK Ethics Legislation
Scientists have created synthetic human embryos, using living stem cells from an embryo, which could aid in the treatment of developmental disorders and provide a deeper understanding of human early development. However, the models were only cultivated for 14 days, and it is illegal to implant the embryo into a patient's womb. The International Society for Stem Cell Research wants to rethink the limit of 14 days, while experts warn of significant ethical implications.

Red State: Sweden Shocks Europe: Abandons 'Unstable' Green Energy Agenda, Returns to Nuclear Power
Sweden abandons its green energy targets and returns to nuclear power, dealing a blow to the globalist climate agenda pushed by the World Economic Forum and other organizations. Finance Minister Elisabeth Svantesson states that wind and solar power are too unstable to meet energy requirements and urges other Western nations to reject the WEF's green agenda. While environmental campaign group Net Zero Watch welcomes the move, substantial industrialized economies like the United Kingdom must understand that only a gas to nuclear pathway is viable to remain industrialized and competitive.
