Fox News: Ex-CIA spy turned GOP presidential candidate Will Hurd calls Biden ‘worst border security president’ ever
Will Hurd, former Republican congressman and presidential candidate, criticized President Joe Biden’s approach to border security policies during his trip to the US-Canada border in New Hampshire. He blamed Biden’s policies for encouraging illegal immigration, treating everyone as an asylum seeker and failing to construct the border wall to stop the crisis at the southern border. Hurd vowed to resume construction of the border wall if elected to the White House and deploy technology along the southern and northern borders. He also highlighted the danger of terrorists and drugs coming through the unguarded northern border and the need to patrol it.
Hurd refused to sign the pledge to support the eventual GOP 2024 nominee, citing his opposition to former President Donald Trump. He acknowledged that his decision could affect his chances of making the debate stage for the first debate in August but promised to get his message out in other ways. Hurd placed a growing importance on his operations and connections in New Hampshire, known for appreciating underdog candidates.

American Thinker: Taxes Aren’t The Only Form Of Legalized Government Takings
In the US, the government's civil asset forfeiture scheme, which allows the confiscation of property and cash without proving guilt, has raised over $68 billion in 20 years. Cases often involve situations where the accused must prove their innocence, which upends the country's legal system. Despite the effort to reform the system through the FAIR Act, which would overhaul federal civil forfeiture laws, private property continues to be assaulted by law enforcement. In February 2022, Ottawa's mayor announced a plan to sell confiscated vehicles to pay for the crackdown on the Freedom Convoy, highlighting the decades-long issue reflected in the US.
American Thinker: Obama Rings the Reparations Bell
Former President Obama calls for reparations for black Americans, citing the argument that the wealth and power of the United States was built "on the backs of slaves." However, critics argue that Obama ignores the complexities of issues ranging from the need to enforce anti-discrimination laws to the distinctions between African Americans and their immigrant counterparts, with many likening reparations to another spoke on the wheel of Critical Race Theory. Other groups, such as Italian-Americans and Chinese-Americans, have similar historical claims, raising questions about who would qualify for such payments.
Front Page Magazine: Total Weaponization of Government and the Obama Legacy
The Biden administration seeks to continue Obama's legacy of weaponizing the federal government, exemplified by HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra's speech at the department's first-ever Pride Summit. Becerra stated the need for offensive action on gay and transgender rights, demonstrating the government's role as an activist organization and its use as a weapon against political opponents.
Fox News: ‘The View’ host Sunny Hostin blasts ‘hypocrisy’ of evangelical community for supporting Trump after indictment
Former President Trump's remarks about being indicted were met with criticism from "The View" co-host Sunny Hostin, who called out the hypocrisy of the evangelical community for continuing to support him despite the charges. Hostin highlighted the fact that Trump was indicted by both the federal and state governments, and said it was shocking to see the evangelical community booing the truth. Hostin also noted that despite Trump's charges, he is still the frontrunner for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination among evangelicals.
Co-host Ana Navarro echoed the sentiment of shock, but also noted that evangelicals have continued to support Trump despite numerous allegations against him, such as his derogatory and alleged abusive behavior towards women and disabled individuals. Navarro also mocked the Faith and Freedom Conference, where Trump made the controversial remarks about his indictment, saying it should be called "your faith takes away my freedom."
Fox News: Tennessee Rep. Green introduces States Choose Life Act to stop Biden admin's 'retribution' on pro-life states
Rep. Mark Green, R-Tenn., will introduce the States Choose Life Act of 2023 to protect pro-life states from HHS retribution. The legislation seeks to prevent HHS from stripping Title X funding, which funds low-income American's access to care, from states that do not allow abortions and do not refer residents to abortion-allowing states, as it is doing to Tennessee. Green, a former ER physician, is concerned "If states are unable to backfill the void of revoked Title X funding, many Americans could be left without access to cancer screenings and pregnancy services."

Forbes: Serie A Has Lost Bigger Names, But Sandro Tonali’s Departure Damages The League
Sandro Tonali's move from AC Milan to Newcastle for €70m ($76m) is a major blow to Serie A, as the young Italian midfielder departs his childhood team despite taking a pay cut to stay. Tonali's departure sets a concerning precedent, potentially leaving Milanisti frustrated and other Milan players questioning their loyalty. The Italian league is no longer a transition league and is now producing players for the Premier League in the same way as Ligue 1. Although Milan does not require the money, its sale reflects the profit motive of RedBird, which dominates Milan and can't rely on the club's revenue stream.
