American Thinker: Conservatives Need to Support Boycotts
Conservatives are boycotting companies like Anheuser-Busch and Target due to their politically motivated business strategies. Those who stick with the boycotts are fighting back against questionable ballot practices, activist judges, and pushing back against the LGBTQ+ agenda infiltrating society. The silent majority is finding its voice and joining groups like STARRS, the Calvert Group, and Flag Officers 4 America to express their concern over harmful DEI policies and other issues. Progress may be slow, but standing firm on boycotts can help traditional American values prevail.
Fox News: Third-party candidates could play big role in 2024 election, leading to Biden's 'undoing,' critics say
Cornel West, a progressive philosopher and former Harvard professor, announced his third-party bid for the 2024 presidential race as the candidate for the People’s Party, taking shots at both Republicans and Democrats in his announcement. His party is only on the ballot in three states, but Kayleigh McEnany from Fox News predicted that third-party candidates could play a big role in the upcoming election, given their key role in the 2016 polls. Kellyanne Conway, a former counselor to Trump, argued that West could be running to the left of the Biden-Harris administration to attract those who feel forgotten and abandoned by the Democratic Party, highlighting Biden's low approval rating with Black voters.
Fox News: NH Gov. Sununu flames 'three-time loser' Trump after declining 2024 bid: He could hand us 'President' Harris
New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu said former President Donald Trump cannot become the GOP's 2024 nominee because he would ensure the re-election of President Biden and could lead to Vice President Kamala Harris ascending to the Oval Office. Sununu, who recently chose not to launch a presidential bid, said he will not endorse Trump in the Republican primary but could back another candidate before or after his state's first-in-the-nation contest. Sununu stressed he will not support Trump in the primary, saying he represents the past and fails to represent good Republican values.
Fox News: Russia ally denied election to UN Security Council in wake of Ukraine war
Slovenia defeats Belarus in a landslide, securing a spot on the UN Security Council for the next two years. Belarus had run unopposed for the Eastern European seat since 2007 until it violently cracked down on protestors following the 2020 presidential election.
Poland sanctions 365 Belarusians over a journalist's "draconian" jail sentence. Belarus has been one of the few nations to back Russia's deadly invasion of Ukraine and last month allowed Russia to move forward with a plan to deploy tactical nuclear weapons within its borders.
American Thinker: Progressives Are Purely Emotional
Progressives claim to be enlightened, forward-thinking and compassionate. However, they often lack factual understanding and operate on emotion and ego. Hypocrisy abounds as they own guns, benefit from capitalism, and uphold merit-based hiring, promotions, and admissions in their own businesses. Despite knowingly ignoring facts, they virtue signal and support harmful policies because of emotional and egotistical attachment to their side. They are deaf to logic and reason and slaves to misplaced emotionalism and unfounded "team" loyalty.
Fox News: First on Fox: Pence takes shot at Trump in campaign kick-off video, invokes conservative icon

Pence enters the 2024 race polling the mid-single digits, far behind Trump and also significantly trailing Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.

American Thinker: Is Genocide Too Powerful a Word?
The erasure of common sense and the push for leftist ideology are leading to the prelude of global actions that amount to genocide. From environmental policies to transgenderism to the erasure of factual history, these maneuvers dovetail with one another and harm the American people. The COVID debacle, adverse vaccine reactions, and the obsession with erasing whites from the world all contribute to the destruction of populations. Understanding this ideology is crucial to fighting against it.

Fox News: Biden and Sunak seek to continue mending strained ties during UK leader's Washington trip
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is set to meet with President Biden in Washington, D.C. to strengthen relations between the two allies. Sunak hopes to establish a stronger relationship with the US while the White House is keen to resolve previous tensions with Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Liz Truss. Sunak also plans to advocate for more British leadership in artificial intelligence governance and regulation and is expected to discuss Ukraine's defense against Russia's invasion and improving economic ties. A formal trade deal is unlikely to be reached during the visit.
Fox News: Biden admin is preparing to target Americans' gas furnaces amid stove crackdown
The Biden administration is set to finalize regulations on which gas-powered furnaces consumers can purchase, requiring residential gas furnaces to have an annual fuel utilization efficiency (AFUE) of 95% by 2029. Experts warn that this would drive up prices, restrict consumer choice, and cause hefty installation costs for non-condensing furnaces. Opposition argues that consumers would be better served by allowing the free market to naturally increase product efficiency, with 40-60% of current residential furnaces on the market prohibited under the proposed regulation.

Forbes: Unpacking The Strategy Behind Louis Vuitton’s €39k Digital Treasure Trunk NFTs
Louis Vuitton has announced its new ultra-limited non-fungible token (NFT) collection named Treasure Trunks which will be available for a staggering €39,000 each and only a few hundred will be on offer. The initial digital tokens will be soulbound or non-transferable, but the keys that correspond with the digital treasures will be tradable on the secondary market for physical products. The NFT collection is seen as a strategic move by Louis Vuitton into the world of luxury blockchain and NFTs.
Interested parties are invited to register on June 8 and be vetted to ensure they are not bots before getting further information on June 14, followed by an invite to purchase on June 16. The digital Treasure Trunks are expected to act as portals into the world of Louis Vuitton, allowing for the unveiling of new and limited products and experiences via immersive drops that will emerge throughout the year. The wider Web3 initiative under which the digital trunks fall is called VIA, meaning road, and this is only the beginning of Louis Vuitton's foray into blockchain and NFTs.

Fox News: Chinese 'palm pay' technology rollout brings CCP closer to 'total social control' of citizens: Gordon Chang
Chinese conglomerate Tencent's new biometric palm payment technology, called Palm Pay, has been rolled out, prompting concern from Chinese expert Gordan Chang that it will bring the CCP one step closer to "total social control" of its citizens. WeChat Pay customers can make transactions by scanning the palm of their hand, with recognition of a unique palm print triggering an automatic payment through the user's WeChat account. While the technology is currently only available for use on metro rides at station turnstiles in Beijing, Tencent plans to roll it out further to include offices, campuses, retail outlets and restaurants across mainland China. With the CCP taking a leading role in the development of WeChat's technology, and 23% of Tencent's workforce being CCP members, Chang warns that the Chinese state is becoming more effective at gaining information on the country's citizens.
Former President Trump's executive order banning US transactions with Tencent's WeChat messaging app remains a controversial one, and while President Biden revoked the ban earlier this year, concerns remain over Chinese companies' access to Americans' personal and proprietary information. Amazon has introduced a similar palm-scanning checkout technology, while it has since expanded to dozens of Amazon Go and Whole Foods locations in the US. Critics argue that while private companies offering these services in the US is less concerning, there should be no incentives from the US government to encourage companies to use the services, and that all Chinese apps should be banned from the country.
