Critics, including LGBTQ news writer Ari Drennen, criticized CNN for the segment, accusing them of misgendering Mulvaney and failing to address the origins of the Bud Light boycott.

Polgreen emphasizes that corporations are more concerned with their bottom line and cannot afford to alienate LGBTQ consumers. She downplays the power of political marketing, noting that availability and popularity are more important to consumers than a company's political branding.

The Blaze: Horowitz: Inflation trap: Debt increases over a trillion in five weeks, quickest pace ever
It seems that the Biden-McCarthy "Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023" is on track to rival the effects of the Inflation Reduction Act. In just five weeks, the Treasury has already accumulated over $1 trillion in new debt. This rapid increase in debt, coupled with higher interest rates, will have a significant impact on middle-income Americans and the overall affordability of the American dream. Inflation is likely to continue rising, while the Federal Reserve's monetary policies and the housing crisis further contribute to economic instability. The long-term consequences of such high and rising debt are severe, including slower economic growth, increased risk of a fiscal crisis, and vulnerability to interest rate hikes.
National Review: Lowering Medical-Care Costs by Expanding Patient Choices
Health-savings accounts (HSAs) have been successful in improving access to healthcare and lowering insurance costs. A 2010 study found that HSAs lead to decreased spending compared to traditional plans. However, federal laws impose unnecessary restrictions on the types of services and medications covered by HSAs. Expanding HSA coverage would empower individuals to control their healthcare spending and promote cost containment.
The Epoch Times: US Desperately Needs a Long Deflation
Inflation is higher than expected at 3% over the past 12 months, but the Biden administration and mainstream media are downplaying it. Even with 0% inflation for a year, prices will still be 17% higher than they were 4 years ago. The Federal Reserve denies responsibility for the economic robbery that has taken place.
The current inflation numbers are the least bad in a year, but when considering the sticky price index, inflation is actually at 6%, the worst in over 40 years. The Fed is already pushing the idea of deflation as a new problem. They will use quantitative easing to keep the economy afloat until the 2024 election. Falling prices and deflation are not always bad, but are falsely seen as such due to a flawed understanding of the Great Depression. Falling prices can actually lead to economic thriving.

Breitbart: Abortion in First Pregnancy Linked to Higher Use of Mental Health Services
Women whose first pregnancies end in abortion are at a higher risk of mental health issues compared to those who have a live birth, according to a peer-reviewed study conducted by the Charlotte Lozier Institute. The study analyzed data from over 4,800 Medicaid-enrolled women over a 17-year period and found that women who had abortions had higher rates of outpatient visits, inpatient hospital admissions, and longer hospital stays for mental health services. The study challenges the explanation that pre-existing mental health history is the cause of mental health problems following abortion.

Spectator USA: The progressive idea of justice somehow keeps getting dumber
Installing a security system with a Ring-style doorbell camera is now considered racist, according to an article in WIRED. The article argues that these cameras can lead to racial profiling.
