Fox News: Senate Republican moves to stop Buttigieg from using private jets: 'Wasting taxpayer dollars'
Senate Republicans have introduced legislation to prevent top Department of Transportation officials, including Secretary Pete Buttigieg, from using private government planes paid for by taxpayers. The legislation aims to fix a loophole that allows officials to hide the true expenses of their travel costs by using a flawed cost-calculation policy. The bill would only allow private air travel in cases of emergency or if projected to cost 5% less than a commercial airline. The legislation comes after Fox News Digital reported that Buttigieg had used taxpayer-funded jets at least 18 times since taking up his post.
Fox News: Biden's campaign is stronger than Republicans think
Republicans underestimate Biden's strength within the modern Democrat Party, which has always been a coalition of different interest and ideological groups. Everyday Republicans tend to be the party of free enterprise, small business, and people who just want to be left alone. The left sees Biden as an outstanding President, faithfully exercising the liberal agenda.
Red State: Moore to the Point - These Are Not the Crooks You're Looking For
Hunter Biden reaches a settlement agreement and pleads guilty to tax offenses. Despite the ongoing scandal and corruption allegations, the legacy media downplays the story and instead focuses on Joe Biden's love for his son.

Fox News: Comer opposes a Hunter Biden probe special counsel: 'Ridiculous idea'
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer opposes the appointment of a special counsel for the federal probe into Hunter Biden. He has called on Americans not to trust Attorney General Merrick Garland, claiming his panel is fully equipped to investigate the alleged business schemes of the Biden family. The House Ways and Means Committee recently released testimony from two IRS whistleblowers, who said officials at the Justice Department, FBI and IRS interfered with the investigation into Hunter Biden. The revelation came just days after the Justice Department announced that Hunter Biden would plead guilty to two misdemeanors and agree to a pretrial diversion deal with regard to possession of a firearm.
The Federalist: Pride Is The Flag Of American Occupation
The United States is undergoing a regime change with the pride flag as its emblem. The legal, activist, and cultural entities forwarding the pride agenda seek to erase key constitutional protections. It requires enforcement by a bureaucracy that violates the constitutional division of powers between legislative, judicial, and executive. This new symbol of identity politics is not compatible with the U.S. Constitution. It's trying to replace the original Constitution with a pagan theocracy.

Fox News: Inner workings of Wagner mercenary group revealed amid call to add organization to US terror list
The Soufan Group has called on the Biden administration to consider designating Russia's Wagner Group as a Foreign Terrorist Organization due to its alleged actions outside conflict zones and its links to the Russian state. The private military company, founded in 2014 by Russian oligarch Yevgeny Prigozhin, has been involved in conflicts from Ukraine to Syria to sub-Saharan Africa and is believed to have a total force of over 50,000 members. Wagner's tactics, including the use of force against civilians, make it difficult for international and regional actors to develop effective conflict prevention strategies, according to the report.
The US State Department has so far declined to preview any potential sanctions against Wagner. The group was recently designated a transnational criminal organization by the US. Despite its operational capabilities, the group is not invincible, according to the report. Its defeat by US special forces in Syria and its failure to curb an insurgency in Mozambique demonstrate its fallibility, the authors note. However, Wagner's association with the Russian state means it is a unique threat, according to former US Defense Intelligence Agency officer Rebekah Koffler, who warned that the alleged rebellion launched by Wagner earlier this year might still have been pre-planned.

Fox News: New Mexico sets up telephone hotline for women seeking access to abortion clinics
New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham has announced a new hotline for women seeking access to abortion clinics and related services, as the state experiences a surge in demand for the service. The hotline will be staffed by registered nurses from the state Department of Health and will offer advice on maternal health issues, as well as directing women to abortion providers. As of this year, nearly 5,300 abortions have been performed in New Mexico, with six providers offering surgical abortions and thirteen offering medical abortions. The hotline will also aim to encourage more providers to relocate from states with abortion bans to New Mexico.
Forbes: Dems' Drug Price Controls Would Mean Fewer Drugs And Fewer Jobs
The SMART Prices Act, sponsored by 28 Democratic senators, would expand prescription drug price controls, potentially causing a 37% decline in drug firm earnings and vaporizing billions of dollars in research into new therapies. The price controls would also result in a possible 68% reduction in new FDA-approved medications over 10 years, equivalent to 237 new therapies never making it to market, as well as the loss of as many as 1.1 million jobs, according to a study by research group Vital Transformation. Patients waiting for effective new therapies could be considered casualties of the Act, which would subject ever-more drugs to price controls.

Forbes: 2023 NBA Free Agency: 6 Non-Taxpayer Mid-Level Exception Targets For The Sixers
The Philadelphia 76ers might lose their non-taxpayer mid-level exception if they choose to re-sign James Harden to a max or near-max contract. The team may only have access to the taxpayer MLE, which limits them to signing external free agents to veteran-minimum deals. However, if Harden walks, players like Bruce Brown Jr., Harrison Barnes, Jordan Clarkson, Grant Williams, Gabe Vincent, and Max Strus could be potential non-taxpayer MLE targets for the team.
The Epoch Times: Barcelona Sign Gundogan on Free Transfer After Man City Exit
Former Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan has signed a two-year contract with Barcelona on a free transfer. The 32-year-old German, who has experience in the Premier League with the English club, has a contract until June 2025 and includes a buyout clause of 400 million euros. Gundogan garnered many successes during his seven-year tenure with Manchester City, winning five league titles and captaining the team to a Premier League, FA Cup, and Champions League treble last season. Barcelona coach Xavi will likely depend on Gundogan's experience after long-serving midfielder Sergio Busquets left at the end of the season after 18 years with the club.

China is experiencing heatwaves and heavy rainfall due to El Nino weather conditions. Beijing faced temperatures of up to 40.3 Celsius, prompting the highest red alert for hot weather across 185 regions. Flood risks were also flagged for Anhui and Sichuan.
