National Review: The Corner: Why Does Trump Special Counsel Smith Have Grand Juries in D.C. and Florida?
The reason behind why Jack Smith, the Trump special counsel, has turned to a grand jury in Palm Beach, Florida, is currently unknown as grand-jury proceedings are kept secret. However, one possible explanation is that there are a number of witnesses based in Florida, so it is easier for Smith to travel there and interview them rather than making them travel to D.C., which would have led to more hassle and potentially less cooperation.
Newsbusters: Soros-Funded NPR Defends Soros-Tied Voting Org from So-Called ‘Far-Right’ Misinfo ‘Machine’
NPR denies leftist organization ERIC is influenced by Soros, despite evidence to the contrary. ERIC, funded by Soros' network, focuses on voter registration and was established as a project by The Pew Charitable Trusts. NPR has also received funding from Soros' Open Society Foundations, but failed to disclose this in its report. NPR accuses critics of pushing "far-right misinformation," but investigative sources have shown that Soros' Foundation to Promote Open Society granted over $700,000 to Pew in 2011 for voter registration efforts that aligned with ERIC's mission.

The Blaze: Bill Barr debunks false information that a top Democrat spread about the infamous FBI document on Biden
Former Attorney General Bill Barr accuses Rep. Jamie Raskin of spreading false information about a document involving President Biden, which allegedly shows his involvement in a criminal bribery scheme. Raskin dismissed the allegations by claiming that the Justice Department had already explored them but closed any probe. However, Barr contradicted this statement and said that the document was sent to Delaware for further investigation. The House Oversight Committee will consider a resolution to hold FBI Director Christopher Wray in contempt of Congress.
The Right Scoop: REPORT: DOJ to ask grand jury to vote on charges against Trump tomorrow; Also Mark Meadows cut a deal??
DOJ prosecutors may indict Donald Trump for violating the Espionage Act and obstructing justice as early as Thursday. They plan to use Section 793 in their case to avoid Trump using his authority as president to declassify documents. A separate grand jury is also hearing evidence in Florida. Mark Meadows reportedly made a deal for limited immunity as he cooperated with investigations into Trump. It is not yet clear whether the charges relate to the documents probe or the January 6 attack on the Capitol. Biden's administration is making all efforts to destroy Trump.
Breitbart: Miami Mayor Showing Signs of Jumping into the 2024 Presidential Race
Miami Mayor Francis Suarez is reportedly gearing up to run for president, as evidenced by City Hall staffers taking unpaid leave to work on his campaign and Suarez attending a fundraiser for a Super PAC. While it's unclear if and when he will announce his presidential bid, a major donor said Suarez and his wife would make a decision "within the next week." Meanwhile, several Republicans have already joined the presidential race, including Chris Christie, Doug Burgum, and Mike Pence.
PJ Media: REPORT: Biden Admin to Indict Donald Trump Over Classified Docs Soon; Charges Revealed
Donald Trump may face imminent indictment by Joe Biden’s Department of Justice, with charges expected to be handed down for the offense of “gathering, transmitting, or losing” national defense information. Trump’s legal team is expected to argue that he possessed Constitutional powers as president to declassify documents. An indictment could have huge ramifications for the 2024 election, bolstering Trump’s claims of political targeting and potentially bogging him down with trials during his campaign.
Red State: Watch: Fur Flies on 'The View' After Sunny Hostin Goes ‘Mean Girl’ on Alyssa Farah
Co-hosts of ABC's "The View" clashed over the 2024 GOP presidential field and former Vice President Mike Pence's candidacy, particularly between Sunny Hostin and Alyssa Farah Griffin. Hostin questioned Griffin's unwillingness to take a stand on Pence, who Hostin dislikes, especially on the issue of how he enabled Trump. Despite the audience's scattered applause urging a more respectful conversation, the two hosts continued to talk over each other. After being forced to a commercial break, the show returned to "normal." Griffin wanted to be a commentator and sought national attention as a former Trump official. People could do the country a world of good by not watching "The View."
Flag And Cross: 'The View' Hosts Heartbroken After Reading News Their Favorite Candidate Won't Run in 2024
The View's co-hosts, who range from the simply duplicitous left to the insane far-left, offered advice on how Republicans could revamp their party to suit the ladies’ tastes after New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu announced he would not be running under the Republican nomination. Griffin, the former Trump White House staffer turned-turncoat for “The View,” attempted to put an adult-in-the-room spin on the debate by declaring there’s a “battle for the soul of the Republican Party." Republicans, however, want limited government, free speech, free markets, free minds, strong national defense, restored security to the border, and an end to the subversive terror of a deep state that considers itself a kind of covert college of cardinals that selects presidents instead of popes, and it will be up to them to decide who the winner is.

The Federalist Papers: Fox News Goes After Tucker Carlson, Claims His New Twitter Show is a Breach of Contract
Tucker Carlson is being sued by Fox News for allegedly breaching his contract by starting his own show on Twitter. The network cited Carlson's contractual obligations, which stated that his services shall be completely exclusive to Fox, as prohibiting him from rendering services of any type via digital distribution.

National Review: Mike Pence Unloads on Trump in Campaign Kickoff: ‘I Chose the Constitution’
Mike Pence announced his candidacy for the 2024 Presidential Election and criticized Trump for putting his interests above the Constitution. He also emphasized his social conservative views, including his support for a federal 15-week abortion ban. Pence is running as a traditional Republican and presented his commitment to strong national defense and fiscal conservatism. Pence is taking a different approach to the culture war than Trump and DeSantis, as he believes in the power of the free market and opposes state action against corporations that oppose state policy in the political realm.
Red State: The Amazing Shift of Never-Trump Stalwarts Into Trump Inc. Acolytes
Eleven people have announced their intention to run for the GOP presidential ticket in 2024, with Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis dominating the discourse. Some self-proclaimed defenders of the conservative legacy have become fawning sycophants towards Trump and praise him, despite claiming to oppose him. This exposes the sham of these groups in their claim of conservative preservation principles, as they have never promoted a preferred conservative candidate. What they share is a common goal – a Trump victory – as he is needed for them to continue with their "justified" outrage and ensure job security.
Newsbusters: ‘Most Damning’ About FBI: New Twitter Files Expose FBI-Ukraine Plot to Censor Users
The FBI assisted Ukrainian intelligence in an effort to censor Twitter users, including American journalists. The Ukrainian government sent a list of 163 accounts to Twitter, accusing them of spreading "disinformation" and "fake news" related to the conflict in Ukraine. The FBI was involved in the effort, but Twitter ultimately refused to censor the targeted accounts. The incident raises questions about free speech and government influence over social media censorship.

The Federalist Papers: Major Toy Company Doubles Down, Supports LGBT Org That Puts On 'Youth Drag Shops'
Hasbro, the toy company, has announced that it will donate a portion of its sales of designated t-shirts and bags to an LGBTQIA+ youth organization called Youth Pride, Inc. The group is aimed at those aged 23 and under, but it also offers programs for children aged 13 and under, including social spaces for five to nine-year-olds. Youth Pride recently organized a three-day “youth drag workshop” for participants as young as 14. This decision comes on the heels of Hasbro introducing a non-binary character in their children's TV show, “Transformers: EarthSpark”. In supporting an organization that pushes an LGBT agenda on children as young as five, is Hasbro going too far?
Daily Wire: Ben Shapiro: Clash Between Armenian Parents, Leftists Start Of Major Backlash Against Woke Agenda
Far-Left protesters' promotion of pro-LGBT agenda in California had fueled ethnic minority's cultural conservative values clash, with many parents boycotting school by pulling out their children. The widespread backlash against the Left's radical social agenda could lead to an increased shift to the Right, said Ben Shapiro. The Daily Wire Editor Emeritus observed that the "anti-heteronormativity" promoted by a small privileged group was not being bought by the diverse communities the Left claims to represent. The clash between Armenian conservative parents and Los Angeles county's far-Left group may be the beginning of a future tug of war.

Washington Free Beacon: State Dept Labels Pink Floyd's Roger Waters an Anti-Semite After Nazi Stunt
The US State Department has accused musician Roger Waters of being an anti-Semite who denigrates Jewish people at his concerts. Waters, a renowned anti-Israel activist, has used antisemitic tropes to belittle Jews and distort the Holocaust, the department said, singling out his recent Nazi-related imagery during concerts in Germany. The Biden administration has faced criticism over its association with anti-Israel groups and individuals. Jewish advocacy organisations have warned Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member Waters is among Israel’s top enemies, frequently lambasting its “racist apartheid regime” and likening the state to Nazi Germany.

The Federalist Papers: Biden Admin's New Regulations: A Threat to Consumer Freedom and Affordable Energy
The Biden administration is proposing strict regulations on home gas-powered furnaces, requiring them to achieve an annual fuel utilization efficiency of 95% by 2029. This move will impose an expense on consumers while having only a meager impact on greenhouse gas emissions, raising concerns over the potential narrowing of consumer options. Critics warn that the DOE's proposed rules would effectively outlaw non-condensing furnaces, compromising affordability for many households.
The American Gas Association (AGA) and others have voiced their opposition to these proposed regulations, pointing out the burden of expensive retrofits for many homeowners. While the DOE claims the efficiency standards could save the average family about $100 per annum, many experts warn that such sweeping regulations will be enormous and expensive for the average American, infringing upon their freedoms, choices, and financial stability. However, the administration's mission of energy efficiency and conservation appears to be driving these policies.
Foreign Policy: India’s Deadly Train Crash Raises Safety Concerns
The train crash in eastern India that killed nearly 300 people was likely caused by an electronic signaling error, revealing safety issues that persist despite recent improvements. India's government is accelerating its industrial policy push focused on modern infrastructure to attract foreign investment, but the emphasis on creating new infrastructure may mean that existing infrastructure, plagued by old and poorly performing equipment, may be neglected. India needs to redirect more funding and create policy space for train safety, with a new initiative to increase funding for infrastructure repairs and safety measures being politically wise for the Modi government.
Meanwhile, Bangladesh has signed a fertilizer deal with Russia, reflecting Dhaka's desire to balance relations with Washington and Moscow amid expanding great-power competition across South Asia. The United States and India are already laying the groundwork for Modi’s state visit to Washington on June 22, with officials expected to discuss defense cooperation, clean energy, tech collaborations, the challenge presented by China, and Russia’s war in Ukraine. Taliban's ban on opium poppy production appears to be remarkably successful, with Taliban members razing poppy fields across the country and the US spent billions of dollars on attempts to curb poppy production before its withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021, which failed largely because it didn’t create alternative livelihood programs for poppy farmers.

Daily Wire: Egyptian Authorities Ban Dutch Archeologists From Historic Site For ‘Falsifying History’ With ‘Afrocentric’ Exhibition
Dutch archaeologists have been banned from working at the historic Saqqara site in Egypt by Egyptian authorities. The National Museum of Antiquities in Leiden, Netherlands, had created an exhibition called "Kemet: Egypt in Hip Hop, Jazz, Soul & Funk," which portrayed black celebrities such as Rihanna, Beyoncé, and Eddie Murphy in the roles of ancient Egyptian figures including Pharaoh Ramesses. Egyptian authorities accused the museum of "falsifying history" with an "Afrocentric" approach. Saqqara is an important archeological site in Egypt and has been the site of many significant finds.
The Imaginative Conservative: Shakespeare in the Dark
Shakespeare's works continue to live through the timeless truth and beauty they contain, despite modern productions often twisting and abusing his original intent. The most recent production of The Merry Wives of Windsor suffered from the trivialization and cheapening of central Christian virtues, reducing Anne Page and Master Fenton to the shallow personalities of today's culture. However, Shakespeare still lives and laughs and his works will continue to inspire for generations to come.

Patients have been approved for such surgeries despite not being diagnosed with gender dysphoria. The investigation has raised concerns about insurance companies' awareness of these corrupt providers. The transgender medical industry has become "corrupt and fraudulent from the ground up", says The Daily Wire.

Flag And Cross: Scientists Say Self-driving Cars May Be Dangerous Because They Don't Understand Social Cues
Self-driving cars lack social intelligence and struggle to understand human interactions on the road, potentially causing traffic jams and posing danger to others. A study by the University of Copenhagen analyzed 18 hours of YouTube footage of self-driving cars and found that the vehicles struggled to comprehend when to 'yield' and when to drive, which is essential for efficient driving. For example, self-driving cars were unable to respond to subtle social cues to drive on in traffic when required. As self-driving cars cannot read the behavior of humans, they can annoy other drivers and cause roadblocks.

Newsbusters: CNN Claims Fewer Deaths, Less Racism with Electric Cars
CNN climate correspondent Bill Weir touted the benefits of electric cars, citing a study by the American Lung Association claiming that a switch to electric vehicles would result in fewer premature deaths, asthma attacks, and lost workdays, as well as considerable public health benefits. However, Weir neglected to mention that the study's numbers were mostly conjecture and did not take into account the negative environmental impact of producing the minerals needed for electric car batteries. Furthermore, while transportation is the largest contributor of greenhouse gas emissions, electricity production is a close second. The segment was sponsored by Downy and Subway.
