The Epoch Times: University of Texas Students Behind Censorship Project Targeting Conservative News Outlets
Academics and students at the University of Texas at Austin's Global Disinformation Lab (GDIL) created a blacklist targeting conservative news organizations for the Global Disinformation Index (GDI), according to The Federalist. GDI’s blacklist caused a loss in funding for several conservative media organizations, while left-leaning media outlets were rated as least risky. GDI's blacklist was sold to marketing organizations, and publicly funded organizations like the National Endowment for Democracy and the State Department's Global Engagement Center provided GDI with funding, raising questions about censorship and academic influence in politics.
The University of Texas at Austin withheld some information, but internal documents showed the GDIL paid untrained students to rate media outlets in a politically biased program. GDI, GDIL, and the Biden State Department were found to be involved with promoting censorship of anti-progressive views. The State Department had dealings with a growing number of universities and publicly funded think tanks like the Centre for Information Resilience, which has an ex-Department of Homeland Security disinformation czar as its vice president. Critics questioned how a state-funded university could profit from a politically biased program, and the Biden administration's role in funding censorship operations.
Red State: Grab the Popcorn: Tim Scott Will Appear on 'The View' to 'Look Those Ladies in the Eyes'
GOP Senator Tim Scott will be appearing on “The View” to confront co-host Joy Behar about her racist comments towards him earlier this month. Behar belittled Scott’s lack of understanding of “systemic racism” which outraged him. Scott plans on telling the hosts that being successful in America as an African American doesn’t make him an exception but the rule. Although he would like to confront Behar directly, it is unsure whether or not she will be present on Monday. Some conservatives doubt Behar will show up.
Fox News: Biden officials 'leave him alone' on weekends, adjust schedule to avoid tiring 'an aging president': Report
Officials reportedly try to leave US President Joe Biden alone on weekends and schedule all public appearances between 12 p.m. and 4 p.m. due to concerns about tiring "an aging president," according to the New York Times. Local leaders have also called the White House to inquire about his health. Biden officially announced he would be running for re-election in 2024 as voters have become increasingly concerned about his age and his ability to serve a second term. A Quinnipiac poll from May found that 65% of registered voters believe Biden is too old to be an effective president for another four years.

American Thinker: Is America’s collapse inevitable?
America is facing a "competence crisis" due to the systematic promotion of the unqualified and sidelining of the competent, resulting in the collapse of the country's complex systems. The shift from a meritocracy to a diversity system has led to a decline in competency across all public and private sectors, with the fallout affecting every American. Ultimately, America risks throwing away the system that competent people created, leading to a reduction in the quality of life that may not be recoverable.
The Federalist Papers: Watch: Megyn Kelly Tears Up Before Revealing Major Transformation: Vows to No Longer Use Preferred Pronouns
Podcast host Megyn Kelly has announced she will no longer use preferred pronouns and recanted her previous support for the transgender movement. Citing instances of violence against women who speak out against the "trans lobby", she spoke about Kellie-Jay Keen Minshull who was attacked in New Zealand during a speech against the movement's impact on women. Kelly explained that prior to 2020, she saw no harm in using whatever pronouns the person demanded, but her views evolved when she was told off for calling trans girls "biological males" and was asked to deny reality. She now bases her conversations around gender on the same ideas that govern her life: truth and reality.

Daily Wire: Jonathan Isaac Announces Anti-Woke Sports Apparel Brand ‘UNITUS’
Jonathan Isaac, a Christian NBA star who refused to kneel during the national anthem in protest of the Black Lives Matter movement, is launching his own sports and apparel company, UNITUS, in August. The company will be founded on the principles of love for God and country and provide families with the opportunity to purchase sports clothes aligned with their values. Isaac stated that companies have the freedom to attack Christian and conservative values, but he also has the freedom to create his own company.
Isaac’s move follows conservative boycotts of various brands that allegedly fail to represent traditional American values in favor of transgenderism, including Anheuser-Busch, Target, Kohls, and the Los Angeles Dodgers. Isaac previously released a book entitled “Why I Stand,” which relates the story of how he found the courage to stand for his principles.
