Fox News: DeSantis defends migrant flights to California, blames sanctuary jurisdictions for encouraging 'open border'
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis defended sending migrant flights to California and suggested that sanctuary cities should bear the burden of the crisis. California officials accused Florida of exploiting migrants and threatened to file criminal kidnapping charges against Floridian officials. DeSantis shrugged off the controversy, stating that sanctuary jurisdictions should have to bear the consequences of their open-border policies. The ongoing battle over migrant transports began last year when Texas began bussing migrants to sanctuary cities, and states have continued to send migrants to other parts of the country.

Breitbart: Jim Banks Grills Biden Official Over Labor Trafficking Pipeline of Migrant Kids: 'What the Heck are You Doing?'
Rep. Jim Banks grills Biden's Acting Labor Department Secretary Julie Su over a labor trafficking pipeline within the US that now includes many Unaccompanied Alien Children (UACs) released into the US from the southern border. Health and Human Services (HHS) officials have lost contact with some 85,000 UACs who were released into the US interior to adult sponsors, where, according to reports, many of them end up in a labor trafficking pipeline as well as sex trafficking and general abuse at the hands of their adult sponsors. Banks asked Su what exactly the Labor Department was doing about this, to which Su responded that the agency is doing all it can do to prevent violations of the nation's child labor laws, an answer that Banks did not accept.

Fox News: Political violence rocks Senegal, threatens stability, as nation closes overseas consulates
Senegal's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has temporarily closed its overseas consulates, including those in Paris and New York, due to unprecedented political violence that has caused significant damage to its diplomatic and consular missions. At least 16 people have been killed, about 500 arrested and hundreds more injured, with protests and riots affecting major cities after opposition leader Ousmane Sonko was convicted of "corrupting the youth." The situation is a significant threat to incumbent Macky Sall's re-election prospects next year.
The violence has led Senegalese authorities to restrict access to social media apps such as Facebook, WhatsApp and Twitter, which are believed to be the primary means of communication for protesters, and have also installed roadblocks on major transport routes. Growing discontentment with unemployment, corruption and government crackdowns on political opponents has led to significant civil unrest in the generally stable African nation in recent years, with Sall's government prosecuting other political challengers ahead of elections.

Newsbusters: Soros-Funded NPR Defends Soros-Tied Voting Org from So-Called ‘Far-Right’ Misinfo ‘Machine’
NPR denies leftist Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC) is associated with George Soros funding, despite Soros' network providing money for the voter registration organization. The Capital Research Center (CRC) confirmed the source of the funding, established as a project of The Pew Charitable Trusts. While NPR confirmed the funding, it called the link between Soros and ERIC “false" and marked it as conspiracy from right-wing platforms. Fox News reported on Dec. 23, 2015, that $2 million was granted "to hire 100 new reporters for 50 of [NPR’s] member stations." Soros' Open Society Foundations supported NPR with $600,000 in 2016.

Fox News: Missouri Gov. Mike Parson signs bill banning transgender health care for minors, competition in school sports
Missouri Governor signed bills banning transgender healthcare for minors and restricting their participation in sports. The major medical organizations have opposed the bans and lawsuits have been filed in several states where bans were enacted this year. The bills infuriated trans rights proponents who accuse the governor of persecuting innocent families. This comes amid a national push by conservatives to put restrictions on transgender and nonbinary people. At least 20 states, including Missouri, have now enacted laws restricting or banning gender-affirming medical care for transgender minors.
Daily Wire: Missouri Governor Signs Bills Banning Transgender Treatments For Minors, Protecting Women’s Sports
Missouri Governor Mike Parson signed two bills that ban transgender treatments for minors and prevent biological males from competing in women’s sports. The Save Adolescents from Experimentation (SAFE) Act prohibits prescribing puberty blockers, hormones, and sex change surgeries to minors and Medicaid from covering transgender treatments for adults. Another bill, SB 39, strips state funding from any public or private school that allows biological males to participate in women’s sports. Governor Parson said the laws would “protect Missouri children from harmful, irreversible treatments and procedures” and “take back their sport competitions.” The ACLU of Missouri plans to challenge the laws, while Planned Parenthood's clinics in Missouri are ramping up appointments and holding pop-up clinics for transgender treatment initiation before the law takes effect.

Fox News: Lawmaker calls out 'unaccountable, nontransparent committee' for banning the Bible in Utah school district
A Utah state representative seeks to ensure that a law banning inappropriate material in public schools won't be used to ban religious texts after a school district removed the King James Bible from elementary and middle schools. The district claimed it did not contain sensitive material as defined in the law but decided to limit it to high schools due to vulgarity or violence.

Two Maryland suspects, Lisa Adrienne Lea and Melachi Duane Darnell Brown, were indicted on manslaughter and negligent homicide charges after crashing into each other in a highway construction zone, killing six road workers in March.

Brown was arrested and released to home detention, while Lea turned herself in to the authorities.
The Epoch Times: Man Convicted of Non-Violent Crime Cannot Be Stripped of Gun Rights, Appeals Court Rules
Federal appeals court in Philadelphia has ruled that an individual convicted of a non-violent crime cannot be deprived of their Second Amendment rights to keep and bear arms. An 11-4 vote sided with Bryan Range, who had been banned from owning a gun after lying on a government form to obtain more food stamps for his family 28 years ago. The ruling, however, is limited to Range's individual case and reflects no sentiment on greater felon firearm bans, given they are part of "our Nation's history and tradition" and serve as a "proxy for disloyalty and disrespect for the sovereign and its laws," argued one dissenter.
The Epoch Times: Colorado Bans Controversial Court-Ordered Reunification Camps

The Colorado law now bans judges from ordering children to attend reunification camps against their will. Children have recounted being handcuffed, dragged out of their homes, and transported to an unknown place. Other states are considering similar legislation.

Fox News: NBA Finals: As series shifts to Miami, the pressure shifts to the Nuggets
Miami Heat and Denver Nuggets are tied at one game apiece in the NBA Finals, with Game 3 coming up on Wednesday night in Miami. Denver is now experiencing the adversity Miami had to endure during Game 1 and Game 2 in Denver, where the Heat were able to make significant comebacks. The winner of Game 3 will have the advantage, with a history of the Game 3 winner going on to win 80% of the time in a tied Finals. Miami is playing their first Finals game at home since 2014, and though home fans will provide a boost, playing at home won't automatically win them the game. Miami has done well in fourth quarters but has struggled in the first three quarters, where they have been outscored by Denver. Denver is aware they need to limit Miami's open looks and prevent their fourth-quarter comebacks.

Fox News: Julia Louis-Dreyfus recalls working with 'tender' late 'Sopranos' star James Gandolfini: 'A teddy bear'
Julia Louis-Dreyfus described her late 'Enough Said' co-star, James Gandolfini, as a "teddy bear" with a kind-hearted nature, differing completely from the ruthless Mafia boss character he played on the HBO hit series 'The Sopranos' from 1999-2007. She recalled her appreciation for his talent and vulnerability, which she compared to Marlon Brando, making his character "much more complicated and interesting to watch." 'Enough Said,' a romantic comedy directed by Nicole Holofcenter and also starring Catherine Keener, Toni Collette and Ben Falcone, was released three months after Gandolfini's death from heart attack during a family vacation in Rome in June 2013. Louis-Dreyfus expressed her gratitude that the public got to see his gentler side for one of his final acting roles.
