PJ Media: House Oversight Committee Just Went Nuclear on 'the Bidens'
Hunter Biden's dealings with Chinese Communist Party-linked officials have been revealed in new messages released by the House Oversight Committee. In one message, Hunter described his father as being "in the room" as he demanded a $5 million payout from a Chinese energy company. Another message shows Hunter doing direct business with a Chinese billionaire tied to the CCP's intelligence gathering agency, with records indicating that the Bidens received a $100,000 payment from the individual in question. The Oversight Committee claims that these revelations show that the Bidens put Chinese interests above American ones.

The Federalist Papers: Donald Trump Is The Only Living U.S. President Not Descended from Slaveholders - Report
A Reuters report reveals that of all current and former US presidents, only former President Trump has no ancestral ties to slaveholders. The report shows that five living presidents, including Biden, have ancestors who owned slaves, and over 100 members of Congress can trace their lineage back to slaveholders. The report highlights the complex and intertwined history of slavery in the United States and has implications for ongoing debates regarding reparations. California has recently initiated inquiries into potential slavery reparations programs, recommending cash payments of up to $1.2 million to eligible Black residents, but even within Democratic circles, the proposal has faced considerable opposition.

Breitbart: Ukraine Retakes Territory Occupied by Russia Since 2014: UK Intelligence
Ukrainian forces are slowly pushing back against Russian and pro-Kremlin forces in the Donbas region, with "small advances" being made around Krasnohorivka. The progress of the counter-offensive is reportedly going slowly, with newly trained and equipped armed forces engaging in probing sorties first before a larger main offensive.

Washington Free Beacon: Russian Mercenary Leader Begins Exile in Belarus
Yevgeny Prigozhin, leader of the Russian mercenary force Wagner Group, has flown to Belarus to begin his exile under a deal brokered by Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko. The deal ended a brief mutiny by Prigozhin's fighters and included the dropping of a criminal case against the group by Russian authorities. President Vladimir Putin praised the country's armed forces for averting a civil war. However, Ukrainian officials hope the chaos caused by the mutiny will undermine Russian defences as Kyiv presses on with a counteroffensive to recapture occupied territory in the south and east. Two Russian missiles struck a crowded area of restaurants in the eastern city of Kramatorsk, killing two people and wounding 22 civilians.

Foreign Policy: Washington’s Supposed Consensus on China Is an Illusion
U.S.-China relations are in a death cycle of confrontation, with little agreement on how to proceed. There is no bipartisan clarity on the desired end state, and war between the two countries seems inevitable. The White House seeks a stable framework for competition and cooperation, but hawks in Congress are pushing for punishing China with even more sanctions and restrictions. U.S. business leaders are also pushing back, fearing for their economic interests. Achieving a new equilibrium in the relationship will require bold leadership and creative diplomacy, focusing on reciprocity, transactional steps, and mutual trust-building measures.

PJ Media: Anheuser-Busch Axes the Marketing Executives Responsible for the Mulvaney Debacle
Anheuser-Busch's top marketing executives, Daniel Blake and Alissa Heinerscheid, are no longer with the company, according to a source within the company. The source claims that Heinerscheid wanted to refresh the "fratty" image of Bud Light and promote inclusivity.

The company is projected to lose its position to Modelo, while Coors Light, Miller Lite, Yuengling Lager, and Yuengling Flight have seen a rise in sales.

Daily Wire: Ben Shapiro Breaks Down ‘Fascinating’ Study On State Of Religion In U.S.
Religious belief is associated with success indicators, including education and marital status, according to a new study. Ryan Burge, a political scientist who studies religion in American public life, wrote an article suggesting religion in the US has become an "enclave" for educated, middle-class adults with stable marriages and children. Shapiro commented that this contrasted with the media's portrayal of churchgoing being predominantly among less educated Americans. Shapiro recommended that churches should be more welcoming to those people who have less successful lives.

Forbes: Why GenZ Is Drinking Less And What This Means For The Alcohol Industry
The rise of mindful drinking and the 'NoLo' movement is being driven by millennials and Gen-Z who want alternatives to alcoholic beverages. The non-alcoholic category is expanding rapidly thanks to higher demand and innovation, with volumes expected to grow by 25% between 2022 and 2026. Consumers are looking for genuine tasteful alternatives rather than pure replicas of alcoholic drinks, with younger generations prioritizing taste over effect. The focus is on developing unique blends to surprise and satisfy consumers, rather than launching 0% versions of popular alcoholic brands. NoLo offerings are growing across distribution channels, with retailers waiting to see a rise in demand before allocating more shelf space to this segment. Jetblue recently became the first airline in the U.S. serving non-alcoholic beer, and bars and restaurants are upgrading their non-alcoholic beverage menus to cater to this growing consumer segment.
Breitbart: Nolte: HBO's Failed Hype Machine Drives 'The Idol' to 133K Views and Cancellation
HBO's The Idol is being cancelled after just five episodes and low viewership, with only 133,000 viewers on its last episode. The show faced creative turmoil during production, with director Amy Seimetz leaving after three episodes and criticism for its sexual content. Despite controversy, the show failed to attract audiences, possibly due to it being unappealing to both prudes and normal viewers. The cancelation may signal a shift away from skeezy content and a desire for a return to sexy entertainment.

Reuters surveyed digitized state archives, public records requests, and the Record Linking Lab at Brigham Young University, among other sources.

Washington Free Beacon: Number of Illegal Chinese Vapes Sold in United States Has Skyrocketed Under Biden
Chinese vapes are flooding the US market and the Biden administration is doing little to stop them. Only 23 tobacco-flavored e-cigarette products have been authorized for sale, but illicit Chinese vapes now make up the bulk of the market with over 9,000 devices available for purchase. These vapes often contain much more nicotine than American-made ones and are marketed to teenagers with fruity flavors. The FDA has expressed concern that they may be laced with fentanyl. Experts say that the agency is incapable of enforcing the law, and despite supposed crackdowns, illicit Chinese vapes are still sold at convenience stores even near the FDA's own headquarters.

Fox News: American citizens arrested in El Salvador as part of nationwide crime crackdown
El Salvador has detained foreign nationals, including Americans, as part of a crackdown on criminal activity. The US State Department has raised concerns about Americans being arrested in an "arbitrary manner" and urged citizens to reconsider travel to the country. El Salvador's president declared a "state of exception" in March 2022 to crack down on gang members, resulting in more than 62,000 arrests, including alleged collaborators, with foreign nationals from Panama, Guatemala, and Colombia also being arrested. The US government is engaged with El Salvador on the issue, but due to privacy considerations, has not released further information.
A US citizen with Salvadoran roots, Walter Huetes, was detained in El Salvador in May when he attended a party with friends. He was arrested due to tattoos on his wrist and hand and has not been able to call his family, although he has spoken to a US consular officer. The crackdown comes after the Salvadoran president ordered a loosening of the country's arrest laws. The "state of exception" has been extended several times, resulting in more than 46,000 arrests of alleged gang members. A massive prison riot erupted as MS-13 gang clashes left dozens dead. Neither the White House nor the El Salvadoran government has responded to a request for comment.
Fox News: Crews enter University of Idaho students' home slated for demolition after quadruple stabbing murder
Work crews are preparing the King Road home in Moscow, Idaho for demolition after four University of Idaho students were killed there in November 2022. The landlord donated the property to the school, which plans to erect a memorial garden somewhere on campus that has not yet been made public. The suspect, Bryan Kohberger, is facing four counts of first-degree murder and a felony burglary charge, and the state is seeking the death penalty.
Trucks from a disaster response company were parked outside the home on June 27, with crews removing personal items from inside. The house has been under 24-hour surveillance for more than six months, and authorities eventually boarded up the windows and installed temporary fencing around the property. Two housemates were spared in the attack, and Kohberger's defense argued that there was no connection between him and the victims. However, prosecutors allege that they recovered his DNA from a knife sheath found next to one of the victims' bodies.

Ferguson, who did not appear to have any connections to the victims, allegedly broke into their home and murdered all three victims.

Newsbusters: World Economic Forum to Champion AI at China Conference Despite Alarming Warnings
The World Economic Forum (WEF) is promoting artificial intelligence (AI) development as part of its Annual Meeting of the New Champions (AMNC) conference in China.

However, there are concerns that the WEF is ignoring free speech concerns and pandering to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), which oversees a dictatorial censorship and surveillance regime. Disturbingly, AI has been identified as programmed with a leftist and anti-Christian bias, raising further questions about its potential impact.
