The New American: War Between James Comer and FBI Director Wray Heats Up - The New American
The House Oversight Committee is threatening contempt proceedings against FBI Director Christopher Wray for not releasing unclassified form FD-1023, which confirms allegations of corruption against the Bidens. The form indicates that Joe Biden and his family used millions of dollars from foreign countries in exchange for political favors. Comer claims that this confidential source of information is highly trustworthy, and the FBI is doing everything to keep it from becoming public. The FBI has argued that FD-1023 needs to be protected to ensure the safety of informants and the integrity of investigations.

Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie filed FEC paperwork as he gears up for a 2024 Presidential run, with sources indicating he will announce his candidacy in New Hampshire.

Republican members of the U.S. House Committee on Natural Resources are seeking to investigate potential conflicts of interest between Interior Secretary Deb Haaland and Pueblo Action Alliance, an Indigenous group from her home state that advocates for halting oil and gas production on public lands. The committee has requested documents related to her interactions with the group, including those of her daughter who has worked with the organization. The move follows Haaland's recent decision to withdraw hundreds of square miles from oil and gas production for the next 20 years around Chaco Culture National Historical Park in New Mexico.
Fox News: ‘Walmart Melania’ hit piece trashes Casey DeSantis, draws scorn from conservative women: 'Disgusting'
Left-wing media's hypocrisy on empowering women has come to the fore in the case of Casey DeSantis, the first lady of Florida, who was vilified as the "Walmart Melania" by The Daily Beast. Critics claim DeSantis is a threat to left-wing pundits as she supports her husband on his campaign trail leading up to his 2024 presidential announcement, and as conservative women have come out in support, highlighting the media's offensiveness. Fox News's correspondent Molly Line highlighted The Daily Beast article's offensive nature and called it "disgusting" but predictable. OutKick host Charly Arnolt believed the attacks on DeSantis, her husband, and other conservatives is nothing new but just another tactic by the left to try to demonize anyone they see as a threat.
Fox News: Senegal violence threatens country's stability as experts call on government to instill calm
Senegal is facing its worst political crisis since 1988, with violent clashes between security forces and supporters of opposition leader Ousmane Sonko leaving at least 16 people dead. Some fear that the unrest could trigger civil war or Islamist violence in the region. Sonko was convicted of corrupting youth but acquitted of rape and death threats, and sentenced to two years in prison. His supporters claim that the charges are part of a plot to derail his candidacy in the 2024 presidential election, while others fear that President Macky Sall will run for a third term, contrary to the constitution. As police arrest 500 people, some of whom used Molotov cocktails, rights groups and analysts warn of the country's possible collapse.
Fox News: California labor law could leave firefighting goat herders out of a job, warns Western Grazers owner
California's goat-herding businesses are under threat due to the state's new labor law set to come into effect in 2024. Western Grazers Owner Tim Arrowsmith appeared on "Fox News Tonight" and warned that he may have to "get rid of" all his goats if a fix for the situation isn't reached, due to the steep rise in wages for goat herders. Targeted grazing with goats have been used to prevent wildfires by the government and private landowners, which could become difficult due to the wage hike. The proposed bill, AB 1099, aimed at addressing the situation was refused a hearing, leading to concern over the future for goat-herding businesses.
Fox News: VA blasted for replacing American flag with pride flag at veteran cemetery, state GOP demands its removal
Mississippi Republicans are demanding that the rainbow LGBTQ flag be removed from a veterans cemetery and replaced with the American flag. Secretary of Veterans Affairs Denis McDonough authorized the flying of the pride flag above VA facilities during June, but Republicans called it a "political stunt" and a "disrespect" to veterans. Some Mississippi residents protested outside the cemetery. The VA stated that "VA facilities fly the flag as a symbol of VA’s commitment to inclusion and as a tribute to the service and sacrifice of LGBTQ+ Veterans, their families, caregivers, and survivors."

Fox News: Atlanta rejects pleas of hundreds of activists, approves police funding project decried as ‘Cop City’
The Atlanta City Council approved funding for a $90 million police and firefighter training center, despite opposition from hundreds of protesters who packed City Hall. The decentralized "Stop Cop City" movement has galvanized activists from across the country who fear the facility will lead to the further militarization of police and exacerbate environmental damage in poor, majority-Black areas. Proponents of the project argue that it will help address difficulties in hiring and retaining police officers and that it will be a national model for police reform.

Euromaidan Press: Reconstruction of Kakhovka HPP expected to cost up to $ 1 bn and last five years
The restoration of Ukraine's Kakhovka Hydro Power Plant will cost $1 billion and take five years, according to Ukrhydroenerho. The plant was destroyed on 6 June, releasing 18 cubic kilometres of water and putting 16,000 people at risk. The reservoir will be depleted to a “dead point” in approximately four days. Ukraine has accused Russia of destroying the dam and launched an investigation into ecocide, while Russia alleged that the incident was caused by Ukrainian shelling. The situation at Zaporizhzhia NPP is reportedly under control with no catastrophic outcomes expected.

PJ Media: DOD Whistleblower Claims U.S. Has Retrieved Several Craft of 'Non-Human Origin'
Former Air Force and National Geospatial Intelligence Agency member David Charles Grusch claims the US government has retrieved aircraft "not of human origin," according to a whistleblower report filed in July 2022. Grusch says the material includes intact vehicles with unique atomic arrangements and radiological signatures that are not of prosaic identities or origins. A number of officials have also confirmed details of the alleged program, but getting the information into the right hands for validation remains a delicate matter.

Fox News: World’s largest chicken supplier, Brazil, unlikely to impose nationwide ban on exports over bird flu
Brazil's newly renegotiated trade agreements with most of their trade partners make it unlikely the world's largest chicken supplier will impose a nationwide ban on exports should the virus that causes avian influenza, HPAI, hit commercial flocks. Even in the event of an outbreak, trade restrictions should be limited to geographical regions. However, the details of Brazil's bilateral protocol with China, their top chicken buyer, may impose temporary bans and pose some problems for exporters. Wildlife authorities in Maine have recently detected 6 dead wild ducks with bird flu.
Fox News: Saudi Arabia plans to reduce how much oil it sends to global economy, meaning US oil prices may rise
Saudi Arabia announced a unilateral cut of 1 million barrels of oil per day starting in July, aiming to prop up the falling price of crude after previous cuts by OPEC+ members failed to boost the market. The other OPEC+ members agreed to extend production cuts through next year at a recent meeting in Vienna. While the Saudi cuts could increase oil prices in the short term, the effect after that will depend on whether they are extended.

The Blaze: Whitlock: Thanks to Bud Light, ‘Pride Month’ is off to a cowardly start
Bud Light's Pride campaign triggered conservative outrage, resulting in a boycott that has cost Anheuser-Busch roughly $15 billion. Major corporate brands have fallen silent during Pride Month, fearing a similar backlash. Conservative Christians have found an effective way to fight back in the culture war with online boycotts. The Alphabet Mafia is emasculating every man who stands with them, but corporate support for the LGBTQ+ community is solely tied to money. The other side lacks the courage for their alleged convictions, and if we lose this war, it says more about us than it does about them.

Fox News: US delays ‘forever chemical’ trial against 3M
A U.S. judge has delayed a trial in a lawsuit against 3M over water contamination from toxic "forever chemicals," as the parties said they were close to a settlement. 3M shares were down 3%.

Fox News: Biden administration vows to improve efforts to battle US drug overdoses
The Biden administration is taking a multifaceted approach to combat the overdose crisis that claimed the lives of 100,000 Americans last year.

Fox News: Improving memory may be as easy as popping a multivitamin, study finds: ‘Prevents vascular dementia'
A recent study from Columbia University and Brigham and Women’s Hospital/Harvard has shown that taking a daily multivitamin supplement may help improve memory function in those over 60 years old. Over 3,500 adults were assigned either a daily multivitamin or a placebo, with those taking the supplement showing memory improvement after the first year, a result sustained for the three-year period of the study. However, critics point out that the sample was largely white and well-educated, therefore not representative of the US population.
The Epoch Times: Evidence of Second Alleged Sexual Assault at COVID Quarantine Hotel: Document
A second sexual assault case has allegedly occurred in a COVID-19 quarantine hotel that housed air passengers returning to Canada. Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) is "aware of two sexual assault complaints filed by travellers while abiding by the government’s hotel quarantine measures since March 1, 2020." The second incident happened in May 2021, when police arrested a hotel employee within a housekeeping department at a Toronto Government Authorized Accommodation, who allegedly assaulted a quarantined traveller. Conservative MP Michelle Rempel-Garner called for an investigation into the issue as then-Minister of Health, Patty Hajdu, had assured the House of Commons that processes had been put in place to prevent similar incidents from occurring.

Fox News: Thai power supply cut to Myanmar casino towns amid allegations of organized crime operations
Thailand's Provincial Electricity Authority has cut off power to two border towns in Myanmar, known for their notorious casino complexes that allegedly host major organized crime operations. Authorities accuse the Chinese-owned complexes of being centers for human trafficking and drug trafficking and for tricking people from other nations into taking jobs, then putting them into virtual captivity. Lawlessness in this region due to a lack of central government authority allows many groups, like the Karen and militias, to ally with criminal gangs rather than fight against the government. Although the affected towns seem to be operating as normal, reports suggest that the power may not be restored for a few weeks.
Myanmar’s military government has not publicly explained its position on the matter. However, the authorities may have cut the power supply after reports surfaced last week of Myanmar asking Thailand to cut the power supply to the casino areas due to concerns about online fraud and gambling. The Karen Border Guard Force is still negotiating with Myanmar's government to renew the power contract. Observers say that if negotiations are not fruitful, a disruption of cross-border business and increased illegal entry is possible.
