Judge unleashes on Biden for potentially biggest 'attack' on freedom in United States history <https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-likely-violated-first-amendment-covid-19-pandemic-federal-judge-says> --Biden likely violated First Amendment during COVID-19 pandemic, federal judge says --Google, Meta and Twitter were all named in the lawsuits | 4 July 2023 | A U.S. District Court judge is temporarily preventing White House officials from meeting with tech companies about social media censorship, arguing that such actions in the past were likely First Amendment violations. The Tuesday injunction by Louisiana Judge Terry A. Doughty was in response to recent lawsuits from Louisiana and Missouri attorneys general. The suits allege that the White House coerced or "significantly encourage[d]" tech companies to suppress free speech during the COVID-19 pandemic. Doughty is barring several federal officials and agencies -- including some of Biden's Cabinet members and White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre -- from contacting social media companies in efforts to suppress speech.

Judge orders Biden administration to limit contact with social media platforms <https://justthenews.com/government/courts-law/judge-orders-biden-administration-limit-contact-social-media-platforms> --The suit is part of a longstanding effort by Republican-aligned states to challenge the Biden administration's cooperation with social media. | 4 July 2023 | A Louisiana federal judge on Tuesday ordered the Biden administration to limit its contact with social media platforms, determining that the government likely violated the First Amendment by working to censor disfavored political viewpoints online. Judge Terry Doughty, a Trump appointed U.S. District Court judge, issued a preliminary injunction barring federal officials and agencies from contacting social media firms to seek the removal of protected speech, Politico reported. Doughty singled out White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, and several health officials in the administration, while issuing a blanket ban on FBI and DOJ employees.
Meta Hires CIA Agent to Head Election Censorship Division <https://www.patrioticviralnews.com/articles/meta-hires-cia-agent-to-head-up-their-election-censorship-division/> | 3 July 2023 | Facebook parent company Meta has decided to put a former CIA agent in charge of their "Elections Policies." With 2024 rapidly approaching, the social media company has decided to promote former CIA Agent Aaron Berman -- who served 17 years at the government agency -- to lead up the division of their company devoted to controlling the narrative surrounding elections. Berman earned the promotion after spearheading Meta?s COVID misinformation team. That team was responsible for censoring any bit of REAL TRUTH that was posted on the platform surrounding COVID, therapeutics, and the vaccines.

CDC Altered Minnesota Death Certificates That List Covid Vaccine as Cause of Death <https://brownstone.org/articles/cdc-altered-death-certificates/> | 3 July 2023 | Someone (who needs to remain anonymous) was able to obtain the death certificates from Minnesota for all deaths that occurred from 2015 to the present, which presented the opportunity to see if the CDC is being entirely honest about the US death data. Unsurprisingly, the CDC is not. As we shall document, the CDC is concealing references to a covid vaccine on Minnesota death certificates (that are exceedingly rare to begin with because of widespread medical establishment denialism of vaccine adverse side effects). In almost every death certificate that identifies a covid vaccine as a cause of death, the CDC committed data fraud by not assigning the ICD 10 code for vaccine side effects to the causes of death listed on the death certificate. ...[Herewith] are 7 death certificates from Minnesota that identify a covid vaccine as a cause of death where the CDC omitted the corresponding ICD 10 code identifying a vaccine side effect when the CDC assigned ICD codes to the death certificates.

World Economic Forum Concludes Annual Meeting of the New Champions in China With Accelerated Plans Toward Global Social Credit and Digital Surveillance <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/world-economic-forum-concludes-annual-meeting-new-champions/> | 1 July 2023 | The World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting of the New Champions gathered in Tianjin, China, June 27-29 to discuss the latest ideas for promoting the "global transition to a green and renewable economy <https://twitter.com/cgmeifangzhang/status/1675217641068277763>." Approximately 1500 participants attended the 14th annual meeting with a stated effort to "boost multilateralism and collaboration in a fragmented world <https://twitter.com/xhnews/status/1673314652749705217>." The three-day event, hailed by some as "Summer Davos," started out with roaring applause for Dr. Evil himself, Klaus Schwab. 

CBDCs With Expiration Dates, Restrictions Could Target Social Policies, Economist Tells WEF <https://www.theepochtimes.com/expiry-dates-restrictions-benefits-of-central-bank-digital-currencies-economist-tells-wef_5366056.html> | 30 June 2023 | Expiry dates and restrictions on "less desirable" purchases are some of the key advantages behind central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), according to an economist at a World Economic Forum (WEF) event. The WEF hosted the 14th annual Meeting of the New Champions in Tianjin, China, also known as Summer Davos. During one of the 30-minute panel discussions on June 28, Cornell University professor Eswar Prasad explained that the global economy is "at the cusp of physical currency essentially disappearing" and that programmable CBDCs and the technology behind these new forms of m-ney could take the international economic landscape toward a dark path or a better place. Prasad contended that one of the "huge potential gains" [*not*] for the digitization of m-ney is the programmability of CBDC units and attaching expiry dates. Governments can also utilize central bank m-ney to socially engineer society.

French mayors urge 'mobilization' against nightly riots <https://www.rt.com/news/579132-french-mayors-protest-riots/> --The public overwhelmingly condemns the violence and backs a possible state of emergency, according to a poll | 3 July 2023 | French mayors have called for a civic mobilization to uphold the rule of law, following six nights of turmoil over the police killing of a 17-year-old French-Algerian, while a poll shows strong public opposition to the rioters. The national association of mayors urged citizens to gather at their local town halls on Monday at noon to show support for "a return to order in the republic." Government buildings have been targeted "with extreme violence" over the week, it said in a statement on Sunday. According to France 24, dozens of people answered the call in the commune of L'Hay-les-Roses, whose elected head has been directly targeted. The home of Vincent Jeanbrun, the mayor of the Paris suburb, was rammed with a burning car on Sunday night. The official was not in the building at the time, but his wife and children were, and managed to escape while suffering injury.

Secret Service on high alert after mystery powder found at White House is revealed as 'Hunter's Favorite' <https://www.foxnews.com/politics/secret-service-investigating-suspected-cocaine-discovered-white-house> --A hazmat team was called to the area of 18th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue following the package's discovery. | 4 July 2023 | A suspicious substance found at the White House has reportedly been determined to be cocaine. The substance, which was found inside the White House's West Wing on Sunday, sparked an evacuation and emergency response. "On Sunday evening, the White House complex went into a precautionary closure as officers from the Secret Service Uniformed Division investigated an unknown item found inside a work area," the U.S. Secret Service said in a statement to Fox News Digital.
Cocaine found at White House, conservatives quip Hunter Biden may be the culprit <https://justthenews.com/government/white-house/cocaine-reportedly-found-white-house-conservatives-point-hunter-biden> --It remains unknown to whom the substance belonged or how it arrived at the premises. | 4 July 2023 | A preliminary field test found the substance to be cocaine, according to the Washington Post. The discovery came soon after first son Hunter Biden's visit to the White House on Friday after which he and his father left for Camp David, Newsmax reported. It remains unknown to whom the substance belonged or how it arrived at the premises, though numerous conservatives quipped that it may have belonged to first son Hunter Biden.

MSM Has Convinced Even Republicans to Believe Hunter's Business is No Big Deal <https://amgreatness.com/2023/06/30/msm-has-convinced-even-republicans-to-believe-hunters-business-is-no-big-deal/> By Paul Gottfried | 1 July 2023 | About half of those surveyed in a recent Reuter/Ipsos poll, including 25% of self-identified Republicans, think, for instance, that Hunter Biden was appropriately charged by our Department of Justice. These respondents have announced that neither Hunter's sinister behavior nor his father?s possible involvement in his business deals will influence their vote in next year's presidential race. According to about half these respondents, the deal Hunter reached with prosecutors for his "two misdemeanors," was presumably no big deal. These voters may also think that "the Big Guy" was not entangled in his son?s m-ney laundering or in his shakedown of foreign governments. The same respondents may also doubt that there was anything incriminating on Hunter's laptop or that the FBI did anything wrong by not treating its contents seriously.Despite what looks like a disastrous presidency and his failing cognitive abilities, Biden is still running neck and neck with his main Republican rivals for the presidency.

Gas guzzlers cheaper to use in Britain than EVs - report <https://www.rt.com/business/578933-uk-ev-charge-electricity-prices/> --Charging electric vehicles has become expensive in the UK due to rising electricity costs, the Climate Change Committee says | 1 July 2023 | Soaring electricity costs in the UK have made gasoline and diesel cars cheaper to use than environmentally friendly electric vehicles (EVs) as charging the latter have become almost unaffordable for many, a report by the Climate Change Committee (CCC) showed. A rise in electricity prices along with a widespread reduction in disposable income is having a considerable impact on EV owners in the UK, according to the report. "Sharply rising electricity prices have reduced the per-mile cost savings offered by EVs compared to fossil-fuelled vehicles," the CCC said in its 2023 progress report to the British Parliament.  

Sheetz lowers gas prices to $1.776 per gallon for Fourth of July <https://justthenews.com/nation/economy/sheetz-drops-gas-prices-1776-gallon-4th-july> | 4 July 2023 | Sheetz, a chain of convenience stores on the East coast, has lowered its gas prices to 1.776 per gallon to celebrate the Fourth of July holiday commemorating American independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain. The specific price reflects the year 1776, when American Revolutionary leaders signed the Declaration of Independence. The sale will apply to regular fuel, E85, unleaded 88, mid-grade, and premium fuel, The Hill reported... The sale will apply to all Sheetz locations.

Vivek Ramaswamy Breaks into Double Digits in Republican Primary - Poll <https://www.breitbart.com/2024-election/2023/07/04/poll-vivek-ramaswamy-breaks-into-double-digits-in-republican-primary/> | 4 July 2023 | Anti-woke businessman Vivek Ramaswamy broke into double digits in the Republican primary race, the latest Echelon Insights survey found. Similar to other national surveys, the poll finds former President Donald Trump with a strong lead in the primary race at 49 percent support. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis falls 33 points behind with 16 percent support. Ramaswamy comes in a close third place at ten percent support, just six points behind DeSantis, making him the only other candidate to break into double-digit territory.

Supreme Court: Racial Preferences Unconstitutional in College Admissions <https://www.breitbart.com/pre-viral/2023/06/29/supreme-court-racial-preferences-unconstitutional-college/> | 29 June 2023 | Racial preferences in college admissions violate the Equal Protection Clause of the Constitution, the Supreme Court decided Thursday in a historic decision with profound implications for racial preferences in many areas of law and public policy. The Supreme Court upheld racial preferences -- euphemistically called "affirmative action" -- in college admissions in the Bakke decision in 1978. Since then, debates have raged about whether to use quotas, point systems, or other ways of favoring one applicant over another based on the color of their skin, with the Supreme Court upholding some approaches while trimming the sails on others... Students for Fair Admissions filed a number of lawsuits against public and private schools. The Supreme Court eventually took two of them: a challenge to the admissions policy of the University of North Carolina (UNC) under the Fourteenth Amendment and a challenge to Harvard?s policy under Title VI. The Supreme Court held 6-3 that UNC?s policy is unconstitutional and held the same regarding Harvard's policy by a 6-2 vote. (Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson recused herself from the Harvard case.) Chief Justice John Roberts wrote the majority opinion, joined by all the conservative and moderate justices.

'Victory for Free Speech' at Supreme Court in Christian Web Designer Case <https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/06/30/victory-for-free-speech-at-supreme-court-in-colorado-web-designer-case/> | 30 June 2023 | The Supreme Court held Friday that the state of Colorado cannot force a website designer to create messages that support same-sex marriages against her religious beliefs, citing her rights under the First Amendment. The case, 303 Creative v. Elenis et al., was decided by 6-3 majority, with all of the court's Republican appointees siding with the website designer, and all three of the Democratic appointees opposing her suit. Free speech advocates, such as civil libertarian and George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley, hailed the ruling.

Supreme Court Strikes Down Biden's $430 Billion Student Loan 'Forgiveness' Plan <https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/06/30/supreme-court-strikes-down-bidens-430-billion-student-loan-forgiveness-plan/> | 30 June 2023 | The Supreme Court struck down Joe Biden's student loan forgiveness plan on Friday, ending a 430 billion debt write-off that critics said had been a midterm election gimmick Biden knew was unconstitutional. As Breitbart News reported last fall: "Over the summer, Biden announced his decision to forgive up to 20,000 in student debt for Americans making less than 125,000 a year. The president announced details of his plan on social media, describing it as a "campaign promise" to give "working and middle-class families breathing room" on student loans. The plan was criticized for attempting to evade Congress's power to control spending and debts, for prioritizing elite college graduates over working-class Americans who chose not to go to college, and for punishing those who paid off their loans or chose fields of study more likely to lead to finding good jobs.

Gunman arrested for Philadelphia mass shooting which left 5 dead is BLM activist who wore women's clothes - sources <https://nypost.com/2023/07/04/kimbrady-carriker-ided-as-philadelphia-gunman-accused-of-killing-5/> | 4 July 2023 | The rifle-wielding suspect who donned a bulletproof vest before allegedly shooting dead five men <https://nypost.com/2023/07/03/4-killed-4-wounded-after-gunman-wearing-ballistic-vest-opens-fire-in-philadelphia-shooting/> and injuring two children in Philadelphia has been identified as a Black Lives Matter supporter who shared gun-toting memes on social media. Kimbrady Carriker, 40, was nabbed shortly after the bloodshed in the city's Kingsessing neighborhood Monday night, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported <http://www.inquirer.com/crime/live/kingsessing-philadelphia-mass-shooting-updates-suspect-victims-20230704.html#card-1463152953>, citing sources. Cops haven't yet publicly disclosed the suspect's identity. On his Facebook page, Carriker posted two pictures of him wearing a bra, a women's top and earrings with his hair braided long in March, three months before the alleged shooting. He also regularly posts about supporting Black Lives Matter, including supporting workers who protested in the Strike For Black Lives in July 2020.

Use the wrong pronoun? You could face up to five years in prison and other punishments <https://www.foxnews.com/politics/michigan-house-passes-bill-using-wrong-pronouns-felony-fineable-10000> --Michigan House passes bill that could make using wrong pronouns a felony, fineable up to 10,000 | 30 June 2023 | A recently passed bill in Michigan could make it a felony to intimidate someone by intentionally using the wrong gender pronouns, according to some legal experts. Michigan's state House of Representatives has passed bill HB 4474, a piece of legislation that criminalizes causing someone to feel threatened by words. Under the new bill, offenders are "guilty of a felony punishable by imprisonment for not more than 5 years, or by a fine of not more than 10,000. Critics are accusing the bill of violating the First Amendment. "Make no mistake about it. Those advocating for this legislation will wield these policies as a weapon capable of destroying conservative expression or viewpoints grounded in the sacred," Distinguished Professor Emeritus William Wagner told media outlet The Daily Wire."

At Least 38 Rights Groups Oppose U.S. Cluster Bombs Delivery to Ukraine <https://sputnikglobe.com/20230708/at-least-38-rights-groups-opposing-uss-cluster-bombs-delivery-to-ukraine-1111738990.html> | 9 July 2023 | At least 38 human rights organizations have publicly opposed a delivery of cluster bombs to Ukraine and expressed concern over the weapon's ability to drop bomblets that can endanger civilians for years by failing to detonate and remaining as explosive hazards, a U.S. newspaper [The Hill] reported. The arms delivery comes as the Ukrainian troops are using "high rates" of ammunition and amid Washington's concerns that Ukraine's counteroffensive against Russia-held territories has stalled, the report said on Friday. Meanwhile, a prominent international rights group urged for an end to the use of cluster munitions in the Ukrainian conflict and said that the country should be cleaned up of such bombs. 
Spain Joins NATO Allies, UN in Opposing U.S. Transfer of Cluster Munitions to Ukraine <https://sputnikglobe.com/20230708/spain-joins-nato-allies-un-in-opposing-us-transfer-of-cluster-munitions-to-ukraine-1111755149.html> | 9 July 2023 | The Biden administration signed off on the delivery of howitzer-launched cluster munitions to Ukraine on Friday of a kind which the U.S. military had previously pledged to destroy. Russian officials condemned the move as a major escalation. Spain does not support the U.S. decision to send cluster munitions to Ukraine, Defense Minister Margarita Robles has announced. "Spain, based on the firm commitment it has to Ukraine, also has a firm commitment that certain weapons and bombs cannot be delivered under any circumstances," Robles said. As a party to the Convention on Cluster Munitions, Spain has a "clear and resounding" position on this type of weapon, and the U.S. decision to send the arms to Ukraine was "not a NATO decision," she added.

White House confirms transfer of controversial cluster bombs to Ukraine <https://www.rt.com/russia/579358-us-ukraine-cluster-munition/> --Washington has approved the move despite knowing the risk to civilians, the U.S. national security adviser has said | 7 July 2023 | Joe Biden has green-lighted the supply of cluster munitions to Ukraine as part of the Pentagon's 42nd arms package for Kiev?s forces. The White House said that Biden made the decision despite the risk of harm to civilians. The president approved the transfer based on "unanimous" advice from his national security team, National Security Adviser [war criminal] Jake Sullivan told reporters on Friday. US officials "recognize that cluster munitions create a risk of civilian harm from unexploded ordnance. This is why we deferred the decision for as long as we could," Sullivan said, before arguing that the supply of cluster bombs is not "that much of an addition of civilian harm," as Russia has allegedly used them in Ukraine already.

Ukraine admits responsibility for terror attack on Crimean bridge <https://www.rt.com/russia/579419-crimean-bridge-ukraine-milestone/> --The strike sought to derail Russian logistics, a deputy defense minister has said | 9 July 2023 | Ukraine, has for the first time, apparently admitted playing a role in the deadly attack on the Crimean Bridge last autumn. The incident belongs in the list of achievements for the country's armed forces, a senior official has claimed. While Moscow has repeatedly claimed that the attack was staged by the Ukrainians, officials in Kiev had never before directly admitted responsibility. On Saturday, Ukrainian Deputy Defense Minister Anna Maliar published a post on Telegram commemorating 500 days since the start of the conflict between Kiev and Moscow, outlining several highlights. The list includes an apparent public acknowledgment of Kiev's role in the attack on the key link between the eastern part of the Russian peninsula and the rest of the country. "[It has been] 273 days since the first strike was conducted on the Crimean bridge to break the Russian logistics," Maliar wrote.

Biden Says Ukraine 'Not Ready' to Join NATO <https://www.theepochtimes.com/biden-says-ukraine-not-ready-to-join-nato_5383594.html> | 9 July 2023 | Joe Biden says Ukraine is "not ready" to join NATO despite Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky?s recent push to join the treaty organization. Ahead of Biden's trip to a NATO summit in Lithuania, Zelensky said during an interview that it is wholly in Biden's power to advance the eastern European nation's membership with NATO. Many in Ukraine support such a move, but Western leaders fear that, due to the nature of NATO treaty obligations, this would immediately embroil all of Europe in a war with Russia. Under Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty, an attack on any nation within the NATO alliance is treated as an attack on all, and members of the alliance are each expected to take up arms in defense of the others. Pointing to this provision, Biden told CNN that Ukraine is "not ready" to join the alliance as conflict continues.

Turkey agrees to back Sweden's NATO bid <https://www.rt.com/news/579508-turkey-agrees-to-support-sweden-nato-bid/> --President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has dropped his opposition to Stockholm's application to join the Western military bloc | 10 July 2023 | NATO has cleared the way for Sweden to join the Western military alliance by persuading Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to end his opposition to Stockholm's bid. [Right, he didn't want another "Pentagon-assisted" earthquake to strike Turkey again, killing another 50,000 people.] The Turkish leader agreed to support Sweden's application and forward the proposal to Ankara lawmakers for ratification, NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said after hosting a meeting between Erdogan and Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson on Monday in Vilnius. Turkey had stood in the way of NATO's latest expansion, using its veto power largely on concern that Sweden hadn?t done enough to help crack down on pro-Kurdish "terrorist organizations." 
UN 'Pact for the Future' Seeks Permanent Emergency Powers for 'Complex Global Shocks' <https://www.infowars.com/posts/report-un-pact-for-the-future-seeks-permanent-emergency-powers-for-complex-global-shocks/> | 5 July 2023 | The UN is set to outline a far reaching plan to secure emergency powers that would allow the global body to lead a ?common agenda? for all nations during any ?complex global shocks? such as a new pandemic. The Federalist reports that the plan is to be finalised at a September 2024 ?Summit of the Future,? where the UN will adopt a "Pact for the Future," to include policies that have been outlined in the globalist body's "Our Common Agenda" report. One such policy is an ?emergency platform? during any events that have a global impact that would provide the UN the authority to "actively promote and drive an international response that places the principles of equity and solidarity at the centre of its work." Meanwhile: "...[T]he United Nations would be given unprecedented authority over the public and private sectors of huge swaths of the world, all in the name of battling a yet unknown crisis."

'Nudge Unit' Chief Says UK Will Obey Future Lockdowns: Citizens Have 'Learnt the Behaviour' <https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2023/07/06/nudge-unit-chief-says-uk-will-obey-future-lockdowns-citizens-have-learnt-the-behaviour/> | 6 July 2023 | A UK government adviser is confident any future pandemic lockdown and compulsory mask edicts will be met with compliance because people have learnt a new behaviour and "in principle, you can switch it back on." Professor David Halpern told The Daily Telegraph the country had "practised the drill" of wearing face masks and working from home and "could redo it" in a future crisis because people are now conditioned to do what they are told. Enforced loss of personal freedoms was one of the hallmarks of the Conservative government's response to the coronavirus pandemic.

Rand Paul moves to protect Americans' First Amendment rights from Biden admin collusion with Big Tech <https://www.foxnews.com/politics/rand-paul-moves-make-easier-americans-sue-biden-admin-collusion-big-tech> --Kentucky senator plans to introduce bill Tuesday | 10 July 2023 | Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul plans to introduce a bill to protect Americans from the Biden administration violating their First Amendment rights. Fox News Digital has learned that Paul is expected to propose the Free Speech Protection Act on Tuesday, which would impose harsh penalties on federal employees and contractors who leverage their positions to attack speech protected under the First Amendment. The bill would empower American citizens to sue the government and executive branch officials who violate the First Amendment of the Constitution, according to Paul's office.

Biden Regime Files Notice of Appeal in MO v. Biden Censorship Case, Demands the Right to Keep Censoring Conservatives <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/just-biden-regime-files-notice-appeal-missouri-v/> | 5 July 2023 | The Biden regime on Wednesday filed a notice of appeal in the Missouri v. Biden censorship case. The Gateway Pundit is proudly the lead plaintiff in this case against Joe Biden. A Trump-appointed federal judge on Tuesday issued a preliminary injunction prohibiting DHS, FBI, DOJ, and other agencies from its government-wide, fascist conspiracy with Big Tech to censor speech and manipulate the public on a variety of topics. The federal government censored the Hunter Biden laptop story, Covid lab-leak theory, efficiency of Covid vaccines and many other topics. Google, Facebook, and Twitter are all named in the lawsuit. U.S. District Court Judge Terry Doughty found the Biden Regime violated the First Amendment by censoring unfavorable views in a blistering 155-page opinion <https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.lawd.189520/gov.uscourts.lawd.189520.293.0.pdf>.

Obama-era emails reveal Hunter's extensive ties to nearly a dozen senior-level Biden admin aides <https://www.foxnews.com/politics/obama-era-emails-reveal-hunters-extensive-ties-dozen-senior-level-biden-admin-aides> --Hunter deeply connected to Biden's inner circle as whistleblowers cry foul over federal probe | 10 July 2023 | Nearly a dozen current and former officials serving in the White House and Biden administration, including the president's national security adviser and the secretary of state, have extensive ties to Hunter Biden, who is accused by Republicans of selling access to his father, dating back over a decade. A Fox News Digital analysis reveals the extent of Hunter's potential reach in the White House, while the embattled first son is expected to make his first court appearance on July 26 for two alleged misdemeanor tax violations and a felony gun charge... The analysis includes two members of Biden's Cabinet and one former Cabinet member, a top aide to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, a national security adviser, five top Biden White House aides, and a top Biden campaign aide who is currently on leave from her role as a communications director for Jill Biden.

France Has Fallen: After 1,000 Buildings Burnt, 5,600 Vehicles Destroyed, 3,300 Arrests, Government Vows to Crack Down - on Free Speech <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/france-has-fallen-after-1000-buildings-burnt-5600/> | 5 July 2023 | Eighty-nine percent of Frenchmen condemn the violence committed against security forces... A man was killed by a flash-bang grenade in Marseille. The GoFundMe for the police officer involved in the deadly shooting of Nahel M. reached 1.6 M (EU). The Macron government proposed cracking down on free speech instead of the rioters. The situation in France calmed Tuesday night, on the 8th night of unrest since the officer-involved death of 17-year-old driver Nahel, with only 16 arrests, including 7 in the Paris region. There were 116 fires on public roads, 78 vehicles burned and 8 buildings set on fire. 1,243 people have been indicted since June 30. Bus and tram service was restored, which had been suspended since Friday. Police arrested three men with 300 kilos of fireworks in Paris. There have been 1,000 buildings burnt, 5,600 vehicles destroyed, and 3,300 arrests since last week in France. According to a survey for BFMTV on July 4, 89% of respondents condemn the violence perpetrated against the police. 

Roger Stone Says Trump Told Him the Remaining Classified JFK Assassination Documents Were 'So Horrible' <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/roger-stone-says-trump-told-him-remaining-classified/> | 5 July 2023 | Roger Stone was recently on Human Events Daily hosted by Jack Posobiec and had some very interesting details to share regarding the remaining classified JFK assassination documents. Posobiec stared off the segment by mentioning that the Biden administration has extended the declassification of files regarding the assassination of President John F. Kennedy... Stone shared with Posobiec that in 2017, he contacted President Trump and asked Trump what he was going to do about the JFK documents, because under the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992, all the documents were set to be released... Despite pushback, Trump did released over 80% of JFK documents which revealed Lee Henry Oswald received a 1099 from the FBI and attended a foreign language school funded by the Pentagon. Stone later asked Trump why he didn't release the remaining 20% of the JFK assassination files to which Trump replied "I can't tell you. It's so horrible you wouldn?t believe it. Someday, you'll find out all about it."

Massachusetts approves driver's licenses to illegal migrants, as border surge taxes state resources <https://justthenews.com/world/mexico/masschussetts-approves-drivers-licenses-illegals-amid-8000-surge-their-emergency> --A former DHS official expressed concerns to Just the News that the state is on its way to enabling voting for non-citizens. | 9 July 2023 | Massachusetts has become the most recent state to allow illegal migrants to apply for a driver's license, a move that has the potential to ease some of the burden on government resources already struggling from the surge in immigration. The "Work and Family Mobility Act" went into effect July 1 -- after roughly two decades of debate on the matter in the commonwealth's Legislature. The new law allows eligible Massachusetts residents to apply to obtain a standard driver's license, regardless of immigration status, removing a previous state requirement that residents provide proof of immigration status, according to local radio station WGBH-FM.

90% of U.S. Jobs Created in June Went to Foreign Born Workers - Including Illegals <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/not-making-headlines-90-us-jobs-created-june/> | 7 July 2023 | U.S. job growth slowed in the month of June. There were 209,000 non-farm jobs created last month versus a forecast of 225,000 new jobs for the month. May payrolls were revised lower to up 306,000 from up 339,000, a loss of 33,000 jobs. And, of course, wage gains did not keep up with inflation once again. But the news is even more bleak for American families. On Friday morning, Heritage Foundation Fellow, E. J. Antoni joined the War Room podcast to discuss the latest jobs numbers. E. J. pointed out that 90 percent of the new jobs created went to foreigners. And that number includes illegal aliens.

Breaking: Biden Authorizes Activation of Up to 3,000 Reserve Troops for 'Operation Atlantic Resolve,' Including 450 Individual Ready Reserves <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/joe-biden-activates-up-3000-reserve-troops-operation/> | 13 July 2023 | On Thursday, Joe Biden issued an Order <http://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/presidential-actions/2023/07/13/ordering-the-selected-reserve-and-certain-members-of-the-individual-ready-reserve-of-the-armed-forces-to-active-duty/> to "augment the active Armed Forces of the United States for the effective conduct of Operation Atlantic Resolve" to include up to 3,000 members of the Selected Reserve, with up to 450 members of the Individual Ready Reserve (IRR). Meanwhile, our border remains open with over a hundred thousand arrests made last month alone by overworked U.S. Border Patrol and other law enforcement officials. The IRR is particularly interesting, as it hasn't been utilized in almost two decades. This Order does not call them to service but only gives authority to do so if "they deem necessary." The IRR consists of former active duty and reserve members who are no longer under obligation to drill, conduct annual training, or participate in any military activities until ordered by Presidential Authority.  Essentially, it is junior enlisted officers who have an obligation after leaving their service once their contract has expired. Typically, a contract would be four years followed by four years of IRR service.

Breaking: Loud blast heard in Russia's 'atomic city' - reports <https://www.rt.com/russia/579676-kurchatov-drone-attack-reports/> --A suspected drone attack was carried out in Kurchatov, a home to a nuclear plant, reports say | 14 July 2023 | A loud explosion was heard over the skies of Russia's city of Kurchatov, an industrial hub adjacent to the Kursk Nuclear Power Plant, multiple Telegram channels reported in the early hours on Friday. They said locals found what looked like drone parts on the ground. According to the channel SHOT, windows were shattered in several houses. It added that air defenses have been activated. Photos posted on Telegram show what appears to be drone parts found in the city. The Kursk Region shares a border with Ukraine. The power plant is located roughly 4 kilometers (2.4 miles) outside urban areas. The company Energotex, which makes equipment for nuclear reactors, is also based in Kurchatov.
Central bankers are planning CBDC currency implants 'under your skin' - top economist <https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/top-economist-central-bankers-are-planning-cbdc-currency-implants-under-your-skin/> --A central banker reportedly told economist Richard Werner there are plans to issue CBDCs that ?look like a small grain of rice,? to be implanted under the skin. | 12 July 2023 | A prominent German economist says central banks plan to concretize central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) in the form of microchips implanted under the skin, a technology that would enable absolute government control over personal finances. "I was told by a central banker [that] the CBDCs look like a small grain of rice that they want to put under your skin," said professor Richard Werner, Ph.D., who devised the now widely used (and according to Werner, abused) bank practice of quantitative easing, in a recent interview with Ivor Cummins. Central bank digital currencies, in contrast with other forms of digital currency used today, require that individuals open bank accounts directly with central banks such as the Federal Reserve, giving governments control over citizens' access to m-ney. "You have to think of CDBCs as a control system [or a permit system], not a currency," Werner explained, adding that the level of control would be such that our m-ney would no longer be truly our own.

Nigel Farage warns about 'tyranny' of cashless society after getting de-banked <https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/nigel-farage-warns-about-tyranny-of-cashless-society-after-getting-debanked/> --After having his bank accounts closed and a total of nine banks turning him away, Farage said, "The ultimate fear is if we get CBDCs (Central Bank Digital Currencies), we could finish up like the Canadian truckers -- people who were within the law, found themselves outside the law, and had their bank accounts frozen. Controlling people's m-ney would be the ultimate form of tyranny." | 13 July 2023 | Mr. Brexit Nigel Farage is crying foul after a British banking group that held his m-ney for over 40 years closed his accounts "without explanation." ..."There is an all-out war on cash," he exclaimed. "It's about control of our lives at every level. It will inevitably end up with central bank digital currencies." Stunned, Farage said he considered leaving the country. "Has Britain gone so far down the road of authoritarianism that it is too late to turn back?" he wondered in an article for The Telegraph. Farage has also stated that members of his own family were targeted. He has since said that he believes he was "de-banked" for "political" reasons. 

Probe opened into FBI targeting of House Intelligence committee staffers during Russia probe <https://justthenews.com/accountability/russia-and-ukraine-scandals/probe-opened-fbi-targeting-house-intelligence-committee> | 13 July 2023 | The House Judiciary Committee on Thursday opened a formal investigation into why the FBI snooped on two Republican House Intelligence Committee staffers during the height of the Russia collusion probe, suggesting the seizure of their private email and records may have been retaliation for the panel's efforts to expose bureau misconduct. The letter from Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, to FBI Director Christopher Wray was prompted by reporting <https://justthenews.com/accountability/russia-and-ukraine-scandals/doj-spied-house-intelligence-committee-investigators> in Just the News and the New York Post revealing that Kash Patel, the chief investigator on then-House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes's team, had his email seized from Google back in late 2017, just before the release of a report that identified significant failures and abuses in the Russia collusion scandal. Patel and a second unnamed committee investigator were not notified until 2022, five years after the seizure, Just the News reported.  

Wray has no apologies for targeting parents: FBI acted 'the way it should' <https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/fbi-director-wray-has-no-apologies-for-parents-fbi-acted-the-way-it-should-despite-admitting-no-compelling-nationwide-law-enforcement-justification> | 12 July 2023 | FBI Director Christopher Wray offered no apology for the bureau's alleged targeting of parents protesting at school board meetings in response to a grilling from House Judiciary Committee Republicans, who used a Wednesday hearing to air allegations of politicization and bias within the ranks of federal law enforcement. The director agreed, however, that there was "no compelling nationwide law enforcement justification" for Attorney General Merrick Garland's directive for tracking alleged threats against school boards. "This committee's investigation concluded that the Justice Department's own documents demonstrated it was no compelling justification for the attorney general's directive. Do you have any reason to dispute that conclusion?" Rep. Kevin Kiley (R-CA) asked on Wednesday. "No," Wray said.

DOJ Quietly Removes Child Sex Trafficking Information From Its Website <https://www.theepochtimes.com/doj-quietly-removes-child-sex-trafficking-information-from-its-website_5396469.html> | 13 July 2023 | The Department of Justice (DOJ) has quietly taken down a series of sections from its website related to both domestic and international child sex trafficking, including a portion that offers information about U.S. minors being "recruited and exploited" into the commercial sex industry. According to an archived version of the website, the agency previously provided detailed information about "International Sex Trafficking of Minors," "Domestic Sex Trafficking of Minors," and "Child Victims of Prostitution." The updated version of the webpage completely erased all three sections, which were added during President Donald Trump's tenure on May 28, 2020, to counsel Americans about tactics that are being used by pimps and human traffickers targeting vulnerable children and luring them into prostitution and other forms of sexual exploitation using psychological manipulation. [That's because President Trump actually wanted to end child trafficking and Joe Biden wants to keep it going.]

Trump to host screening of 'Sound of Freedom' on July 19 <https://thepostmillennial.com/breaking-sound-of-freedom-ticket-sales-smash-expectations-while-disney-indiana-jones-falls-flat> | 13 July 2023 | Donald Trump has announced that he will be hosting a screening of the anti-child trafficking film Sound of Freedom on July 19 at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster in New Jersey. The event will be open to club members and supporters. The former president is set to be joined by the film's producer, Eduardo Ver?stegui, acting star, Jim Caviezel, as well as founder and CEO of Operation Underground Railroad, Tim Ballard. In a statement, Trump praised the film, highlighting its success <https://thepostmillennial.com/breaking-sound-of-freedom-ticket-sales-smash-expectations-while-disney-indiana-jones-falls-flat> at the box office. "Sound of Freedom grossed 41.7 million in the first week of its release and opened at No. 1 in Texas, Florida, and Arizona theaters," he said. "The feature has taken the nation by storm, beating out Disney's Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny in July Fourth movie ticket sales despite appearing in fewer theaters, securing the top position in the box office for the day."

TSA Rolling Out 'Voluntary' Facial Recognition Program to Another 400 Domestic Airports <https://www.techdirt.com/2023/07/13/tsa-rolling-out-voluntary-facial-recognition-program-to-another-400-domestic-airports/> | 13 July 2023 | In March of this year, TSA administrator David Pekoske again noted the process is still (supposedly) optional, but that it?s not going to stay that way for long. How long that will be remains to be seen, but as Wilfred Chan reports for Fast Company, the rollout is continuing with hundreds more airports on the horizon: "The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is preparing to expand its controversial facial recognition program to around 430 airports over the next ?several years? after finding ?extremely promising? results from its pilot program, an agency spokesperson tells Fast Company. The expansion comes amid allegations by rights advocates that the agency is improperly coercing travelers to participate." The TSA is currently "assessing" the facial recognition program at 25 airports. TSA press secretary Robert Langston said this small sample size has been an unmitigated success, with the TSA's algorithm reportedly matching people with a 97% success rate "across demographics."

Maine Becomes Latest U.S. State to End COVID-19 Vaccine Mandates for Health Care Workers <https://www.theepochtimes.com/maine-becomes-latest-us-state-to-end-covid-19-vaccine-mandates-for-health-care-workers_5395779.html> | 13 July 2023 | The Maine Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has filed a proposal to remove the COVID-19 vaccine mandate for health care workers. The proposal, which was filed with Maine's Secretary of State, is based on evolving scientific evidence and trends including available clinical and epidemiological data about COVID-19, increased population immunity owing to vaccinations and previous infections, and decreased severity of the virus, the department said in a July 11 statement. In Maine, multiple health care workers filed lawsuits over the vaccine mandate, which prohibited religious exemptions and was considered to be one of the strictest in the nation, when it was first rolled out. The measure resulted in nearly 10 percent of the state's health care workforce leaving their jobs, according to 2021 data... In order to remove the vaccine mandate for emergency medical technicians, the Maine Department of Health will need to file a separate proposal.

Insane in the membrane: No fingerprints, DNA sample or leads from cocaine found at the White House, the Secret Service says <https://news.yahoo.com/no-fingerprints-dna-sample-leads-143820987.html> | 13 July 2023 | No fingerprints or DNA turned up on the baggie of cocaine found in a lobby at the White House last week despite a sophisticated FBI crime lab analysis, and surveillance footage of the area didn?t identify a suspect, according to a summary of the Secret Service investigation obtained by The Associated Press. There are no leads on who brought the drugs into the building. U.S. Secret Service agents found the white powder during a routine White House sweep on July 2, in a heavily trafficked West Wing lobby where staff go in and out, and tour groups gather to drop their phones and other belongings. "Without physical evidence, the investigation will not be able to single out a person of interest from the hundreds of individuals who passed through the vestibule where the cocaine was discovered," Secret Service officials said in the summary.

Not Once But Thrice: Drugs Discovered Three Times at Biden's White House Since 2022, Boebert Reveals After Secret Service Briefing <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/drugs-discovered-three-times-bidens-white-house-since/> | 13 July 2023 | In a not a so-surprising revelation following a Secret Service briefing on Thursday, Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) announced that cocaine discovered at the White House on July 2 was not the first incident of drugs found at Biden's White House, citing two other instances within the last year. The Gateway Pundit reported <http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/secret-service-blows-hole-kjps-defense-biden-family/> earlier that Secret Service had announced the conclusion of its investigation into the recent cocaine discovery at the White House. Despite having narrowed down a list of 500 potential individuals, no suspects have been officially identified. Interestingly, the investigation has ended without administering drug tests to these individuals... According to the Secret Service statement, "There was no surveillance video footage found that provided investigative leads or any other means for investigators to identify who may have deposited the found substance in this area. Without physical evidence, the investigation will not be able to single out a person of interest from the hundreds of individuals who passed through the vestibule where the cocaine was discovered."

DOJ indicts missing man who claims to have information on Biden family's China ties <https://www.foxnews.com/politics/doj-indicts-missing-man-claims-have-provided-fbi-info-biden-familys-china-business-dealings> --Gal Luft was arrested in Cypress in February | 10 July 2023 | A fugitive who claimed to have provided the FBI with information on the Biden family?s business dealings in China is facing decades behind bars for alleged arms trafficking and other charges involving Iran. Gal Luft, a 57-year-old dual U.S.-Israeli citizen, is charged with acting as an unregistered agent of China and seeking to broker the sale of Iranian oil in violation of sanctions, federal prosecutors in Manhattan said on Monday. The indictment also accuses Luft of recruiting and paying a former high-ranking U.S. government official on behalf of principals based in China in 2016, without registering as a foreign agent as required by law.

Biden confuses Ukraine with Russia, Zelensky with Putin during gaffe-filled trip <https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-confuses-ukraine-russia-zelenskyy-putin-gaffe-filled-trip-lithuania> --Biden previously claimed Putin was 'losing the war in Iraq' | 12 July 2023 | Biden committed multiple speaking gaffes during his trip to Lithuania this week to shore up support for Ukraine amid its war with Russia, including confusing the two nations, as well as their leaders. While speaking to the NATO summit in Vilnius, Lithuania on Wednesday Biden referred to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as "Vladmir," seemingly confusing Zelensky with Russian President Vladmir Putin. Appearing to not realize his mistake, Biden went on to say he "shouldn't be so familiar," and referred to Zelensky as "Mr. Zelensky." ...At a later speaking event following the summit, Biden confused the two nations, referring to Ukraine as Russia.

Russia should stop attacking Russia - Biden <https://www.rt.com/news/579622-biden-russia-gaffe-nato/> --The U.S. leader delivered his most recent gaffe during a keynote speech at the NATO summit | 12 July 2023 | Joe Biden mixed up Russia and Ukraine during a speech at the NATO summit in Vilnius, Lithuania on Wednesday. His gaffe came just days after a U.S. State Department spokesman made a similar slip of the tongue when referring to the current conflict. "Russia could end this war tomorrow by withdrawing its forces from Ukraine, reconing [sic - what a moron] its international borders and ceasing its attacks on, its inhumane attacks, on Russia," Biden said on Wednesday. "I mean by Russia, on Ukraine," he quickly corrected himself. On Tuesday evening, an unnamed US official had told reporters that Biden was preparing for the "big speech tomorrow" and had just finished "four full days of official business," and would skip a dinner hosted by Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda. Critics responded by posting photos of Biden relaxing on the beach in Delaware on Sunday, ahead of his trip to Europe.

Election Watchdog Sues to Stop Acceptance of Ballots After Election Day <https://www.theepochtimes.com/election-watchdog-sues-to-stop-acceptance-of-ballots-after-election-day_5392048.html> | 13 July 2023 | An election integrity group is suing North Dakota to block its law that allows the state to accept and count mail-in ballots so long as they arrive within 13 days after Election Day. There are reportedly 18 states, plus the District of Columbia, that accept mailed ballots that are delivered after Election Day. Congress created an exception to the law for military and overseas voters, whose mailed-in ballots are counted even if they arrive after Election Day. If the new federal lawsuit is successful, it could lead to other lawsuits that aim to compel election officials in other states to stop accepting ballots that come in after Election Day. Democrats vigorously oppose efforts to curtail mail-in voting but then-President Donald Trump criticized the practice on Sept. 23, 2020. Mr. Trump said at the time that mail-in "ballots are out of control." The next day Mr. Trump said that voting by mail was "a whole big scam."

Stunning video exposes how trans activists 'conquered American life' <https://www.wnd.com/2023/07/stunning-video-exposes-transgender-activists-conquered-american-life/> --'One of the most sophisticated ideological pipelines in politics' | 11 July 2023 | A new, powerful, concise video by investigative journalist Christopher Rufo exposes the monied interests, activist intellectuals and influential doctors behind the aggressive "trans" revolution in America. The video, "The Transgender Empire: How the trans movement conquered American life," is produced by the Manhattan Institute... Rufo is a senior fellow at the institute and one of the nation's leading authorities on (trans)"gender ideology," its "queer theory" foundation, and "critical race theory," or CRT. Rufo exposes the quasi-Marxist nature of trans ideology and "queer theory." He quotes "queer" theorist Susan Stryker (a man attempting to live as a woman), who argues that "the transsexual body is a technological construction that represents a war against Western society," Rufo explains.

Not just RFK: Big Tech bears down on news aggregator that challenges mainstream narratives <https://justthenews.com/nation/free-speech/not-just-rfk-big-tech-bears-down-news-aggregator-challenges-mainstream> --Citizens for Legitimate Government lost its web host and access to financial accounts with no warning for ideological disagreements, it says. New server, same delivery problems. By Greg Piper | 17 July 2023 | Days before anti-vaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., is scheduled to testify <http://judiciary.house.gov/committee-activity/hearings/hearing-weaponization-federal-government-3> in Congress about his alleged censorship at the direction of the U.S. government, Big Tech appears to be ramping up a yearlong ad hoc campaign to squelch a news aggregator that questions mainstream political narratives. Citizens for Legitimate Government <https://legitgov.org/> is the brainchild of former professor Michael Rectenwald, whose Twitter alter ego "Deplorable NYU Prof" so riled New York University it paid him generously to quit in 2019 rather than let a jury hear his defamation lawsuit. CLG last month suddenly lost its web host of 14 years for what appeared to be explicitly ideological reasons, which also left Editor-in-Chief Lori Price unable to get into financial accounts linked to the domain. It routinely struggles to get its email newsletter in subscribers' inboxes.

Trump Received Letter Stating He Is Target of January 6 Investigation <https://www.theepochtimes.com/trump-received-letter-stating-he-is-target-of-january-6-investigation_5405674.html> --Trump has four days to report to grand jury | 18 July 2023 | Former President Donald Trump said that he received a letter on July 17 informing him that he is a target of the special counsel investigation of the Jan. 6 Capitol breach. Mr. Trump said the Sunday letter from special counsel Jack Smith gave him four days to report to a grand jury. In a message posted on his social media platform, Truth Social, on July 18, the former president suggested that the short deadline may mean he would be arrested and indicted. Mr. Trump called the letter ?HORRIFYING NEWS for our country? and framed it with the backdrop of the two other indictments he is facing amid a heated presidential reelection campaign in which he is dominating the GOP field.

Trump says DOJ told him he is a target in Jan. 6 probe, must report to grand jury <https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/all-things-trump/trump-says-doj-told-him-he-target-jan-6-probe-must-report-grand> --"I am a TARGET of the January 6th Grand Jury investigation," he wrote. | 18 July 2023 | Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he was informed by the Justice [sic] Department that he is a target of the Jan. 6 Grand Jury probe and he must report to the jury this week. "Deranged Jack Smith, the prosecutor with Joe Biden's DOJ, sent a letter (again, it was Sunday night!) stating that I am a TARGET of the January 6th Grand Jury investigation, and giving me a very short 4 days to report to the Grand Jury, which almost always means an Arrest and indictment," Trump wrote. Special counsel Jack Smith is overseeing investigations into Trump's handling of classified materials as well as the former president's efforts to challenge the 2020 election results.Trump has already been indicted on 37 counts related to allegedly mishandling classified documents. He pleaded not guilty to all charges last month. 

Trump's Petition to Quash Fulton County Report on 2020 Election Denied by Georgia's Supreme Court <https://www.theepochtimes.com/trumps-petition-to-quash-fulton-county-report-on-2020-election-denied-by-georgias-supreme-court_5405061.html> | 18 July 2023 | In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court of the state of Georgia denied former President Donald J. Trump?s attempt to scuttle a grand jury report in Fulton County on the 2020 presidential election in that state. The July 17 decision follows his repeated attempts to quash that special purpose grand jury report, which could lead to another criminal indictment for the previous commander-in-chief. Mr. Trump first sought to challenge the report in March. A petition to the Fulton County Superior Court from his attorney, prominent criminal defense lawyer Drew Findling, asserted that the statutes under which the investigation was being conducted were unconstitutional. It also drew attention to actions by the grand jury's forewoman, Emily or Emma Kohrs. Ms. Kohrs spoke to various media outlets, including in a highly publicized appearance on CNN, raising concerns of a compromised investigation process due to the public remarks by the forewoman as the trial was ongoing.

Forbidden questions, denied warrants, witness tipoffs: Agents detail interference in Biden probe <https://justthenews.com/accountability/whistleblowers/tueforbidden-questions-denied-warrants-witness-tipoffs-agents-detail> --Retired FBI supervisor latest to alert Congress as IRS whistleblowers prepare for day of public testimony | 17 July 2023 | A retired FBI supervisor?s account to Congress of how the bureau tipped off Joe Biden's team in December 2020 about plans to conduct a surprise interview of his son Hunter not only corroborates a key allegation from two IRS whistleblowers, it further paints a portrait of unusual meddling into the investigation of the first family's overseas business dealings and taxes. From search warrants denied to critical evidence kept from the investigative team, three experienced federal law enforcement agents have now offered Congress significant testimony and proof that the Hunter Biden probe did not follow FBI or IRS norms and left veteran investigators as well as the powerful House chairman seeing political favoritism and undue interference. "The Justice Department?s efforts to cover up for the Bidens reveals a two-tiered system of justice that sickens the American people," House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., said Monday night after releasing a summary of the FBI supervisory agent?s account.  

Former FBI Supervisory Special Agent Confirms IRS Whistleblower Testimony <https://oversight.house.gov/release/former-fbi-supervisory-special-agent-confirms-irs-whistleblower-testimony%EF%BF%BC/> | 17 July 2023 | House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer issued the following statement after committee staff today conducted a transcribed interview with a former FBI supervisory special agent assigned to the FBI's Wilmington office and the Biden criminal investigation: "Today, a former FBI supervisory special agent assigned to the FBI's Wilmington office and the Biden criminal investigation confirmed key portions of the IRS whistleblower?s testimony. The night before the interview of Hunter Biden, both Secret Service headquarters and the Biden transition team were tipped off about the planned interview. On the day of the Hunter Biden interview, federal agents were told to stand by and could not approach Hunter Biden--they had to wait for his call. As a result of the change in plans, IRS and FBI criminal investigators never got to interview Hunter Biden as part of the investigation. The Justice Department?s efforts to cover up for the Bidens reveals a two-tiered system of justice that sickens the American people. The Oversight Committee, along with the Judiciary Committee and Ways and Means Committee, will continue to seek the answers, transparency, and accountability that the American people demand and deserve."

Putin vows retaliation for new Crimean Bridge strike <https://www.rt.com/russia/579860-putin-statement-bridge/> --The blast was yet another "pointless and brutal" terrorist attack by the Kiev regime, the Russian president said | 17 July 2023 | Russian President Vladimir Putin has vowed retaliation for a new overnight strike on the Crimean Bridge, targeted by two Ukrainian naval drones. Precise measures are currently being weighed up by the country's Defense Ministry, he said, during an extraordinary meeting with senior officials on Monday. "The incident is a yet another terrorist attack by the Kiev regime. This crime is pointless from the military point of view, since the Crimean Bridge has long not been used for military transport, and brutal, since only innocent civilians were killed and injured," the president stressed. Putin said Moscow would retaliate harshly for the attack. The Russian Defense Ministry is already preparing "necessary proposals" for such measures, he added.

"The U.S. occupation forces brought to their bases in northern Iraq a convoy consisting of 120 vehicles, including 65 tankers, some of them carrying covered damaged military equipment, 20 refrigerated trucks, and 35 tanks loaded with stolen Syrian oil," the sources said, adding that the convoy was accompanied by four Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) militia pickups for protection. Saturday?s account follows on reporting last week that a convoy of 39 tankers loaded with Syrian crude left fields in Hasakah and was similarly smuggled into Iraq, this time via the Mahmoudiya checkpoint -- another border crossing which the Damascus government doesn't control and hence considers illegal.

U.S. soldier facing military disciplinary actions flees to North Korea <https://www.militarytimes.com/news/your-military/2023/07/18/us-soldier-detained-by-north-korea-after-crossing-border/> | 18 July 2023 | An American soldier facing military disciplinary actions fled across the heavily armed border from South Korea into North Korea, U.S. officials said Tuesday, becoming the first American detained in the North in nearly five years. Two U.S. officials said the soldier detained was Private 2nd Class Travis King, who had just been released from a South Korean prison where he?d been held on assault charges and was facing additional military disciplinary actions in the United States. King, who?s in his early 20s, was escorted to the airport to be returned to Fort Bliss, Texas, but instead of getting on the plane he left and joined a tour of the Korean border village of Panmunjom, where he ran across the border.

Jan. 6 defendant appeals to Supreme Court in case that could upend hundreds of riot charges <https://justthenews.com/government/courts-law/jan-6-defendant-appeals-supreme-court-case-could-upend-hundreds-riot-charges> | 16 July 2023 | Jan. 6 defendant Edward Jacob Lang is asking the Supreme Court to hear his challenge against one of the 11 charges he was indicted on -- obstruction of an official proceeding -- in a case that could upend legal proceedings against hundreds of other defendants indicted on charges related to the Jan. 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol riot. The obstruction charge could be levied against "anyone who attends at a public demonstration gone awry," attorneys for Lang wrote in an appeal to the Supreme Court last week. The proceeding for which the charge was brought refers to the event where Congress certifies the Electoral College votes to confirm the president. The charge "is nothing less than the weaponization of the penal code to stifle dissent; it sets a terrifying precedent unworthy of this nation's history," Lang's attorneys also wrote.

January 6er Ronnie Sandlin Sentenced to Over Five Years in Prison After Refusing to Cooperate With Feds - Claims Inhumane Treatment and Raises Alarm About Prisoner Abuse by Correction Officers <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/january-6er-ronnie-sandlin-sentenced-five-years-prison/> | 18 July 2023 | Ronnie Sandlin was sentenced to 5 years and 3 months for his involvement on January 6.

Ronnie Sandlin was one of the first people arrested after January 6. He's been incarcerated for two and one half years and was denied bond even though he had zero criminal history.

Approx.: 0281 (emphasis added)," the appeal reads.

Footage from the incident quickly made the rounds on social media, where several users blasted the president [sic] for his peculiar conduct. "This has got to be Biden's creepiest moment yet with a child," Caleb Hull, a conservative operative, said of the footage.

Trump Releases Video Opposing Ukraine's Entry in NATO <https://dailycaller.com/2023/07/20/trump-releases-video-opposing-ukrainian-entry-nato/> | 20 July 2023 | Former President Donald Trump said that offering Ukraine membership into the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) was ?unhinged? in a video posted to Twitter on Thursday. Joe Biden said on July 9 that Ukraine was not ready to join NATO, citing the war with Russia. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg announced an expedited path for Ukraine to join the alliance July 11, in which it would waive the Membership Action Plan. "We have a corrupt, compromised president, crooked Joe Biden, who is dragging us into World War III -- that's what's happening -- on behalf of a nation that paid his family millions and millions of dollars in obvious bribes. All you have to do is take a look at how much China, how much Ukraine have paid the Biden family. It's a total disgrace and a very dangerous one," Trump said in the video posted on Twitter by the Team Trump account. "Under these circumstances, the notion that we would even consider admitting Ukraine into NATO at this time is completely unhinged," Trump continued.

UK intelligence 'freelancers' helped Ukraine target Crimean Bridge - report <https://www.rt.com/news/580052-uk-intelligence-crimea-bridge-attack/> --One of the British-devised plans allegedly involved replicating the 2020 Beirut explosion | 21 July 2023 | Ukraine's drone attack on the Kerch Bridge was most likely planned by former British military intelligence agents who signed a contract with Kiev in 2022, the independent outlet Grayzone has reported citing leaked documents. A "cabal of British military-intelligence freelancers" led by Chris Donnelly has worked with the Odessa office of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) since April last year, Grayzone said in a report published Wednesday evening. The outlet had published leaked documents proving their partnership in October 2022, after the first attack on the Crimean Bridge. "A review of leaked files previously revealed by The Grayzone provides a solid basis for again blaming Donnelly's cabal," the outlet noted in reference to Monday's drone attack that killed two civilians and orphaned a 14-year-old girl.

The thinly veiled threat was issued in a statement by Kiev's Defense Ministry on Thursday, accusing Moscow of turning the Black Sea into a "danger zone" while vowing to retaliate in force against any ship in the area, including civilian vessels. "The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine warns that from [midnight] on July 21, 2023, all vessels heading in the waters of the Black Sea in the direction of seaports of the Russian Federation...may be considered by Ukraine to be carrying military cargo with all the associated risks," it said. The statement noted that some areas in the northeastern Black Sea, as well as the Kerch Strait, would also be "prohibited as dangerous" starting Thursday.

The informant also reported that Burisma had asked Hunter Biden to help get the top prosecutor in Ukraine, Victor Shokin, sidelined because he was investigating the firm for corruption and interfering with Burisma's effort to buy a U.S. firm.

IRS Whistleblower Joseph Ziegler Confirms Biden Family Received Approximately $17 Million in Payments From China, Romania and Other Countries <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/biden-crime-family-caught-irs-whistleblower-gay-democrat/> | 19 July 2023 | Courageous whistleblower -- IRS official Joseph Ziegler, a gay Democrat -- told Congress on Wednesday that the Biden Family received approximately 17 Million in payments from China, Romania and other countries.

'Once You Start Censoring, You're on Your Way to Dystopia and Totalitarianism,' RFK Jr. Tells House Committee <https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/rfk-jr-house-committee-dystopia-totalitarianism/> --In a hearing marred by contentious interruptions and attempts by House Democrats to remove him as a witness, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., CHD chairman on leave from Children's Health Defense testified before a U.S. House hearing organized by the Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government. | 20 July 2023 | In a hearing marred by contentious interruptions and attempts by House Democrats to remove him as a witness, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., CHD chairman on leave from Children's Health Defense (CHD), testified before a U.S. House hearing organized by Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government. The subcommittee, operating within the House Judiciary Committee, said today's hearing was intended to "examine the federal government's role in censoring Americans," "Big Tech?s collusion with out-of-control government agencies to silence speech" and the ongoing Missouri v. Biden lawsuit alleging government censorship... Government censorship and alleged First Amendment violations on the part of the federal government featured prominently in today's hearing. "We need to be able to talk," Kennedy told the committee. "And, the First Amendment was not written for easy speech. It was written for the speech that nobody likes you for."

RFK Jr. Responds to Democrat Attacks at Weaponization Hearing <https://www.theepochtimes.com/rfk-jr-responds-to-democrat-attacks-at-weaponization-hearing_5411489.html?utm_source=Goodevening&src_src=Goodevening&utm_campaign=gv-2023-07-20&src_cmp=gv-2023-07-20&utm_medium=email> --He blasted efforts 'to censor a censorship hearing' | 20 July 2023 | Robert F. Kennedy Jr. responded to attacks from Democrats during a July 20 hearing of the House Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government. The hearing on federal government censorship of certain stories and viewpoints featured Mr. Kennedy--an advocate for enhanced vaccine safety screening and research into the effects of pharmaceutical drugs--as the star witness. Democrats sought to deplatform Mr. Kennedy both before and during the hearing. Setting the tone for the hearing, Ranking Member Stacey Plaskett (D-Deranged-V.I.) opened her remarks with attacks on Mr. Kennedy, accusing him of "hateful, evidence-free rhetoric." As Mr. Kennedy went to begin his opening remarks, Ms. Plaskett made a point of order in an effort to limit Mr. Kennedy's time from 10 minutes to 5 minutes. After a heated exchange between Ms. Plaskett and Mr. Jordan, Mr. Kennedy's time was reduced to the standard five minutes. "If you want to cut him off and censor him some more, you're welcome to do it," Mr. Jordan said, yielding to standard procedure.

Matt Gaetz Seeks to Defund Special Counsel Jack Smith for Election Interference <https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/07/20/matt-gaetz-seeks-to-defund-special-counsel-jack-smith-for-election-interference/> | 20 July 2023 | Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) on Wednesday announced he would introduce legislation to defund Special Counsel Jack Smith, who may be seeking yet another indictment of former President Donald Trump in the midst of a presidential election. "BREAKING: I will be introducing legislation to DEFUND Jack Smith?s witch hunt against President Trump. They are attacking our democracy and engaging in election interference right now. The United States Congress has the capability to stop this election interference, and we must act immediately!" 

Judge Rejects Trump's Bid to Move New York Felony Case to Federal Court <https://www.theepochtimes.com/judge-rejects-trumps-bid-to-move-new-york-felony-case-to-federal-court_5409844.html> | 19 July 2023 | Former President Donald Trump?s attempt to shift his New York criminal case to federal court has been rejected by a U.S. judge. Trump and his lawyers argued that because Trump was president when he carried out the actions for which he?s been charged, the case should be heard in federal, not New York, court. U.S. District Court Judge Alvin Hellerstein, a Clinton appointee, disagreed. "Trump has failed to show that the conduct charged by the Indictment is for or relating to any act performed by or for the President under color of the official acts of a President," Hellerstein said in a July 19 ruling. "Trump also has failed to show that he has a colorable federal defense to the Indictment."

Clinical Trial Documents Suggest Moderna Skimped on Autopsies, Discounted Serious Injuries - Did FDA Know? <https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/moderna-clinical-trial-documents-injuries/> --The documents, previously submitted by Moderna to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, included details on unexplained deaths and fetal abnormalities in animal studies. | 20 July 2023 | A 13,685-page tranche of documents related to Moderna?s COVID-19 vaccine clinical trials released Tuesday contain details about the deaths of 16 trial participants, the prevalence of severe adverse events (SAEs) and other abnormalities. The documents, previously submitted by Moderna to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as part of the licensing process for Moderna?s Spikevax COVID-19 vaccine, also exposed an "utter lack of thoroughness" in how the trials were conducted, according to Defending the Republic (DTR), a Dallas-based nonprofit that obtained the documents via a a still-pending Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against Moderna. The documents, shared with The Defender in advance of their public release, are the first set of ?Moderna documents? to be released as part of the lawsuit -- with approximately 8,000 more pages expected to follow later this year. Travis Miller, a Fort Worth-based attorney representing DTR, told The Defender, "These documents include over 13,500 pages relating to serious adverse event listings that  document injuries -- such as shingles and Bell?s palsy and other more serious conditions -- which we believe may be related to the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine."

CMT Yanks Jason Aldean's Anti-Riot Music Video From Airwaves Amid Claims It's?'Pro-Lynching' <https://www.dailywire.com/news/cmt-yanks-jason-aldeans-anti-riot-music-video-from-airwaves-amid-claims-its-pro-lynching> | 19 July 2023 | Country music star Jason Aldean defended his song ?Try That in a Small Town? on Tuesday after Country Music Television pulled it from the airwaves amid backlash. CMT confirmed to Billboard that it had removed the video from its rotation as of Monday but refused to comment further on its decision. Legacy media outlets and leftist social media users put the song on blast this week, claiming the anti-riot lyrics are actually "pro-lynching." The song has been out since May, but it gained new attention thanks to a newly released music video that has activists crying foul... Aldean insists that the song was not meant to have racist undertones. 

NYU teaches 'white public school parents' to grapple with their 'internalized white superiority' <https://www.campusreform.org/article?id=23638> | 18 July 2023 | From February through June, New York University hosted monthly "anti-racist" workshops dedicated to educating "white public school parents." The "From Integration to Anti-Racist" workshop series consisted of six, two-hour long courses and cost 360 per person. "The Education Justice Research and Organizing Collaborative (EJ-ROC) at NYU Metro Center will host a series of six (6) monthly workshops designed specifically for white public school parents in New York City committed to becoming anti-racist and to collaboratively building equitable, powerful, multiracial parent communities in their schools," the since deleted web page read. 

Food Giant Helps Get 'Sound of Freedom' Movie to the Big Screen <https://www.theepochtimes.com/food-giant-helps-get-child-trafficking-movie-sound-of-freedom-to-the-big-screen_5385713.html?ea_med=desktop_news&tmp=1&ea_src=ai_recommenderhttps://www.theepochtimes.com/food-giant-helps-get-child-trafficking-movie-sound-of-freedom-to-the-big-screen_5385713.html> | 19 July 2023 | Angel Studios' anti-people trafficking movie, Sound of Freedom, has earned nearly seven times its original budget after only two weeks at the box office. Shedding a light on a dark, shadowy world--especially child sex trafficking--the film's commercial success comes years after its production, surviving a corporate merger, the COVID-19 pandemic, and reports of several screenings gone awry. The picture owes a lot to two men who wanted everyone to see it--the producer and co-star Eduardo Verastagui and president of Goya Foods, Bob Unanue. The movie saw an increase of more than 30 percent in audience attendance in its second week, and more than 10,000 verified audience members have contributed to its 100 percent audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.

Biden Campaign Had Plan to Send Alternate Electors if Needed in 2020, Admin Is Suing Republicans for Doing the Same <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/revealed-biden-campaign-had-plan-send-alternate-electors/> | 22 July 2023 | Trump prosecutor [and Grade 'A' sociopath] Jack Smith has been investigating the process of sending alternate electors for possible prosecution. This week, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel (D-Deranged) charged 16 of the 2020 Trump electors <https://www.wjr.com/2023/07/20/michigan-ag-dana-nessel-levels-charges-against-16-fake-electors-over-alleged-attempts-to-overturn-2020-election/> with eight felonies each. Many of the Michigan Trump electors are retirees in the 70s and 80s. The charges against the Michigan electors include: Forgery, Election Law Forgery, Utterance, and Conspiracy. The media has engaged in systemic journalistic malpractice by endlessly referring to the alternate electors as "fake" electors, in order to make them seem guilty of innocent conduct. Now Mike Benz, Executive Director of the Foundation for Freedom Online, laid out the evidence on Twitter that the Biden team had planned to send their own slates of alternate electors in case they lost the election. The Biden plans were written and overseen by John Podesta. Podesta had a plan to ensure Biden won by sending an alternate slate of elections.

Congress investigating allegation Border Patrol official retaliated against after testimony <https://justthenews.com/government/congress/suncongress-investigating-allegation-border-patrol-official-l-retaliated> | 22 July 2023 | Congressional investigating are probing whistleblower allegations that the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agency may have retaliated against a top agency official after he testifying before lawmakers. House Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., and Rep. Mark Green wrote in a letter Friday that they have been told by a whistleblower that El Centro Border Patrol Sector Chief Gregory Bovino was relieved of his command after he finished a transcribed interview with two congressional committees earlier this month. Bovino was sent to a temporary assignment with "no certain mission, no articulable purpose, and without any timeline of completion," according to the letter. "The whistleblower indicates that this pattern is consistent with a common CBP practice to get rid of employees perceived as problematic by high-level officials by forcing those employees, out of frustration, to relocate, retire, or resign," wrote Comer and Green, R-Tenn.

Trump: Trial Date a 'Major Setback' for Biden DOJ <https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/donald-trump-trial-date-judge-aileen-cannon/2023/07/21/id/1128037/> | 20 July 2023 | Former President Donald Trump issued a statement Friday to hail a Florida federal judge's decision to schedule his trial date in the seized documents case for next May, The Post Millennial reported. U.S. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon on Friday scheduled trial proceedings to begin on May 20, 2024, with a pretrial hearing in the case set for May 14. Cannon's decision is a compromise between the Department of Justice's request to set the trial for December and the Trump defense team's request to schedule proceedings after the 2024 presidential election. Trump is the GOP front-runner. "Today's order by Judge Cannon is a major setback to the DOJ's [Department of Justice's] crusade to deny President Trump a fair legal process," a Trump spokesperson said, according to The Post Millennial.

From Fox News <https://www.foxnews.com/us/kentucky-fire-causes-heavy-damage-building-housing-sen-rand-pauls-office-local-law-firm>: "Fire crews were called to the building on State Street around 2:00 a.m. Friday and found a heavy blaze that required additional units, Bowling Green Fire Department spokeswoman Katie McKee told the Daily News. Six units worked for hours to extinguish the flames, with firefighters manning aerials to get at the blaze from above..." This week, Paul referred Fauci to the DOJ for prosecution for lying to Congress. Investigators are getting to the bottom of what caused the fire.

Body found in search for black male paddleboarder who drowned in pond on Obama's Martha's Vineyard estate - 911 call was made from ex-president's property <https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12331627/Desperate-search-paddleboarder-43-went-missing-water-Marthas-Vineyard.html> --His body was found in the eight-foot-deep waters approximately 100 feet away from shore at 10am Monday | 24 July 2023 | Divers have found the body of a paddleboarder who went missing in the water off Martha's Vineyard - that backs on to Barack Obama's sprawling 12million home. The 43-year-old vanished on Sunday evening while he was out with another paddleboarder on Edgartown Great Pond, Massachusetts, and emergency crews were dispatched to Obama's residence. Witnesses told cops the man went underwater and then briefly reappeared as he struggled to stay afloat, before submerging again around 7.46pm. A massive joint-agency search resumed Monday morning for the African American male who was last seen wearing all black without a lifejacket, MV Times reported... It is unclear if the former president, 61, is currently staying at the home. 

U.S. Military Confirms Myocarditis Spike After COVID Vaccine Introduction <https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/us-military-confirms-myocarditis-spiked-after-covid-vaccine-introduction-5411759> | 22 July 2023 | Cases of myocarditis soared among U.S. service members in 2021 after the COVID-19 vaccines were rolled out, a top Pentagon official has confirmed. There were 275 cases of myocarditis in 2021-- a 151 percent spike from the annual average from 2016 to 2020, according to Gilbert Cisneros Jr., undersecretary of defense for personnel and readiness, who confirmed data revealed by a whistleblower earlier this year. The COVID-19 vaccines can cause myocarditis, a form of heart inflammation that can lead to mortality, including sudden death. COVID-19 also can cause myocarditis. The diagnosis data comes from the Defense Medical Epidemiology Database.

CDC Changed Definition of Breakthrough COVID-19 After Emails About 'Vaccine Failure' <https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/exclusive-cdc-changed-definition-of-breakthrough-covid-19-after-emails-about-vaccine-failure-5414511> | 22 July 2023 | The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) altered its definition of COVID-19 cases among the vaccinated, leading to a lower number of cases classified as a breakthrough, according to documents obtained by The Epoch Times. The CDC in early 2021 defined the post-vaccination cases as people testing positive seven or more days after receipt of a primary vaccination series, according to one of the documents. The definition was changed on Feb. 2, 2021, to only include cases detected at least 14 days after a primary series, another document shows. "We have revised the case definition," Dr. Marc Fisher, the lead of the CDC's Vaccine Breakthrough Case Investigation Team, wrote to colleagues at the time.

Browns' Marquise Goodwin suffering from 'alarming' blood clots in legs, lungs <https://nypost.com/2023/07/21/browns-marquise-goodwin-has-blood-clots-in-legs-and-lungs/> | 21 July 2023 | Veteran Browns wide receiver Marquise Goodwin has blood clots in his legs and lungs, the team announced Friday. Goodwin, 32, was placed on the non-football illness list last Friday after feeling discomfort in his legs and shortness of breath during team workouts this spring. The blood clots will force the receiver, who is entering his 10th season in the NFL, to miss the start of training camp, the Browns said. "It was really alarming at first because I?ve experienced injury throughout my career, but it's never been anything like this that could turn into something detrimental if it's not taken care of," he told the team website.

83 Republicans vote against amendment to reinstate pilots fired for refusing COVID-19 vaccine <https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/83-republicans-vote-against-bill-reinstate-pilots-fired-refusing-covid-19-vaccine?dicbo=v2-KrtlvDR> | 20 July 2023 | House lawmakers on Thursday rejected an amendment that would have required airlines to reinstate pilots who were fired or stepped down because of vaccine mandates. The amendment to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) reauthorization bill, introduced by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., and offered on the floor by Rep. Mary Miller, R-Ill., failed 141-298 after 83 Republicans voted with Democrats against it. Only one House Democrat, Rep. Jared Golden, D-Maine, voted for the measure. Nearly all major U.S. airlines implemented vaccine mandates during the coronavirus pandemic in accordance with Joe Biden's 2021 executive order requiring federal contractors to get the [often deadly] shots. The policies were controversial and prompted legal challenges from pilots, including an unsuccessful attempt by the Southwest Airlines Pilots Association (SWAPA) to block the mandate from taking effect. 

Insane in the membrane: Biden admin allocates $5 billion for new COVID vaccines with little manufacturing guidance <https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/coronavirus/biden-admin-allocates-5-billion-new-covid-vaccines-little-manufacturing> --The initiative, known as Project NextGen, has left manufacturers confused about whether they are even eligible for funding. | 23 July 2023 | The Biden administration is issuing grants from a 5 billion program to expedite the next generation of COVID-19 vaccines [aka experimental mRNA injections], but pharmaceutical manufacturers are not receiving guidance about vaccine standards as the development process returns to its normally slower pace. The initiative, known as Project NextGen, has left manufacturers confused about whether they are even eligible for funding, The New York Times reported. For example, the Pennsylvania-based company Ocugen, which is developing an inhaled vaccine, said it was unable to receive guidance about whether it was eligible for the funding. 

15 Leopards, 20 Bradleys destroyed in one day - Putin <https://www.rt.com/russia/580151-ukraine-record-losses-western-vehicles/> | 23 July 2023 | The Russian military has destroyed a record amount of Ukraine's Western-supplied armor in the last 24 hours while repelling Kiev's much-hyped counteroffensive, President Vladimir Putin told his Belarusian counterpart Alexander Lukashenko on Sunday. The Russian leader delivered the remarks while speaking to Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko in St. Petersburg. Lukashenko, citing his own data, said that Moscow?s forces had taken out at least 15 German-made Leopard tanks and over 20 US-made Bradley infantry fighting vehicles in just one clash. Putin appeared to agree with this assessment, saying "apparently, [we] have never destroyed so much in one day" and proceeding to explain that this figure stemmed from the fact that Russian troops were facing Ukrainian units that were "fully equipped with foreign hardware." 

'Large group' of foreign mercenaries killed in Ukraine - Moscow <https://www.rt.com/russia/580117-foreign-mercenaries-killed-ukraine/> | 22 July 2023 | Russian forces carried out a strike on a mercenary compound in western Ukraine earlier this month, killing a large number of foreign fighters, Moscow's Defense Ministry confirmed on Saturday. In a statement, the ministry said verified data indicated that a Russian "group strike using high-precision long-range sea-based weapons" successfully hit a Ukrainian military academy in Lviv on July 6. The barrage, officials claimed, "destroyed a large number of Polish and German mercenaries that had been stationed there," without specifying how many. In total, Moscow's forces have killed about 4,990 foreign fighters since the start of Russia's military campaign in Ukraine in February 2022, with roughly the same number fleeing the country, the statement read.

Russian journalist killed, several others wounded in Ukrainian shelling <https://www.rt.com/russia/580110-ria-correspondent-killed-ukraine/> | 22 July 2023 | Russia's RIA Novosti says its war correspondent Rostislav Zhuravlev has been killed by Ukrainian shelling as he covered the fighting in Zaporozhye Region. Several other journalists were wounded in the strike, it added. The agency said its crew had come under fire near the village of Pyatikhatki, which has been the scene of heavy fighting since the launch of the Ukrainian counteroffensive in early June. RIA Novosti's photojournalist Konstantin Mikhalchevsky was also injured in the strike, it added. Zhuravlev was killed after Ukrainian forces hit a civilian vehicle in the area, said Evgeny Balitsky, the acting head of Russia?s Zaporozhye Region.

Texas shows no sign of complying with Justice's Monday deadline to remove buoy immigration barriers <https://justthenews.com/nation/states/doj-threatens-texas-impending-lawsuit-over-dangerous-border-security> | 23 July 2024 | Texas GOP Gov. Greg Abbott show no sign of complying with the Justice Department's Monday deadline to remove buoys anchored in the Rio Grande River to stop illegal immigration, or potentially face a lawsuit. In a letter sent last week, the agency has given Abbott and provisional state Attorney General Angela Colmenero until 2 p.m. Monday to comply, saying the buoys create "serious risks" to public safety and the environment and violate federal law, according to ABC News. Texas also has razor wire along the Rio Grande, which is another issue. Over 80 Democratic lawmakers sent a letter Friday to Joe Biden calling on him to investigate Abbott?s "dangerous and cruel actions." [The "dangerous and cruel actions" are removing all borders of entry to the U.S. in order to fulfill the WEF's goals of securing cheap labor to replace the American middle class.]

Greentopian Gulag? Criminalize Climate 'Denial,' Says Politician <https://thenewamerican.com/greentopian-gulag-criminalize-climate-denial-says-politician/> | 22 July 2023 | When global-warming alarmists, or anyone else, say, "The debate is over,? it usually means they?re out of arguments. But now some climate-change activists want to make sure they?ll be out of opponents, too -- by throwing them in prison. The latest individual to suggest such is European politician Angelo Bonelli, an MP who is co-leader of Italy's Green Europe party. Outlet ANSA wrote: "Green Europe co-leader and MP Angelo Bonelli said Thursday that he would present a bill to criminalize climate change denial, adding that he considers the Italian government guilty of it. 'Italy has become a climate hotspot with a growing series of extreme weather events that have caused major damage all over the country,' Bonelli said." 

Trump calls for death penalty for human traffickers, vows to revive Title 42 to end child trafficking <https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-calls-death-penalty-human-traffickers-vows-revive-title-42-end-child-trafficking> --Former president vows if re-elected to urge Congress to ensure that child traffickers receive capital punishment | 22 July 2023 | Former President Donald Trump on Friday vowed to pursue the death penalty for human traffickers and to revive a now-defunct immigration measure to combat child trafficking, if he's re-elected to the White House. "I will use Title 42 to end the child trafficking crisis by returning all trafficked children to their families in their home countries, without delay," Trump said in a new campaign video posted on social media. "And I will urge Congress to ensure that anyone caught trafficking children across our border receives the death penalty immediately." The Title 42 public health order was implemented by the Trump administration, allowing border officials to expel migrants without granting them an asylum hearing in order to limit the spread of COVID-19. Biden rescinded the policy earlier this year.

Donna Hansbrough, 68, saw three people loading up a shopping cart at a store in Rincon, about 30 minutes north of Savannah, and then leave without stopping to pay, police said. The veteran employee then grabbed onto the cart allegedly being pushed by Takyah Berry -- who slugged the older woman in the face three times, according to authorities. Berry, who was with her uncle, Joseph Berry and another man police identified as Jarmar Lawton, then made off with the goods, the Rincon Police Department said in a news release. Hansbrough was then canned from her job of 13 years for violating company policy by interfering with the crooks, according to a report. [Time to stop shopping at Lowe's.]

Fargo Cop Killer Mohamad Barakat was Syrian Asylum Seeker Brought in by Obama <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/fargo-cop-killer-mohamad-barakat-was-syrian-asylum/> --Authorities recovered a hand grenade, explosives, canisters with gasoline, multiple guns, and 1,800 rounds of ammo in Barakat?s vehicle. | 22 July 2023 | One police officer was killed and two others were critically injured after a suspect opened fire for "no reason at all" on a busy street in Fargo, North Dakota, last week. The deceased suspect was identified last Saturday as 37-year-old Mohamad Barakat. According to reports, Barakat began shooting at officers responding to a collision on a busy street in a broad daylight ambush... Barakat was planning "more mayhem," but police still won't admit the ambush on officers was an act of terrorism. KFYR TV reported: "On Friday, more details were released about last week's critical incident in Fargo that left one officer dead, two others in critical condition and a civilian injured. Attorney General Drew Wrigley said that 37-year-old shooter Mohamed Barakat was a Syrian national who came to the U.S. on asylum in 2012. He gained citizenship in 2019..."

Zelensky Associate Was Present at Biden Bribery Meetings - Then Went to Work for President Zelensky Who Now Is Holding Blackmail Information Against Joe Biden <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/breaking-update-zelensky-associate-was-present-biden-bribery/> | 24 July 2023 | Author Peter Schweizer went on Jesse Watters Primetime with Jesse Watters on Monday, where he proceeded to drop another bomb on the Bidens. According to Schweizer, who wrote the best-seller Secret Empires on Biden family crimes, one of Volodymyr Zelensky?s top officials was sitting in the room when they were discussing bribing the Bidens, Joe and Hunter. Ukrainian President Zelensky has a top official who was sitting in on meetings where they talked about bribing the Bidens. Schweizer suggests Zelensky is using this as leverage over the Biden regime for weapons and billions in U.S. d-llars.

Hunter Biden Partner to Testify to Congress as White House Says President 'Never in Business' With His Son <https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/hunter-biden-partner-to-testify-to-congress-as-white-house-says-president-never-in-business-with-his-son-5420946> | 25 July 2023 | Hunter Biden?s former business partner is scheduled to testify to Congress as lawmakers look to dig deeper into connections between President [sic] Joe Biden, his son, and foreign nationals. Devon Archer, the associate of Mr. Hunter Biden, is slated to testify to the House Oversight Committee on July 31. "We look forward to speaking with Devon Archer on Monday about Joe Biden?s involvement in his family's business affairs," Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), chairman of the panel, said in a statement. The committee subpoenaed Mr. Archer on June 16 and has been working since then to schedule a deposition.

Hunter Biden lawyer accused of deception to seal bid to block plea deal <https://nypost.com/2023/07/25/hunter-biden-lawyer-accused-of-deception-to-seal-damning-evidence/> | 25 July 2023 | First son Hunter Biden's legal team was accused of pulling a dirty trick late Tuesday to block the release of d-mning evidence ahead of his expected guilty plea to federal charges of tax evasion and weapons crimes. The drama began in the morning when the House Ways and Means Committee filed an amicus brief to Delaware U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika arguing that the 53-year-old had benefited from "political interference which calls into question the propriety of the investigation" into alleged crimes including m-ney laundering, felony tax evasion and failure to register as a foreign agent. The filing included testimony by two IRS whistleblowers who sat for transcribed interviews May 26 and June 1. What happened next was outlined in a letter sent to the judge Tuesday afternoon by the committee's top lawyer, Theodore Kittila. "[A]t approximately 1:30 p.m., we received word that our filing was removed from the docket," Kittila said. "We promptly contacted the Clerk's office, and we were advised that someone contacted the Court representing that they worked with my office [emphasis original] and that they were asking the Court to remove this from the docket. We immediately advised that this was inaccurate. The Clerk's Office responded that we would need to re-file. We have done so now."

McCarthy: Biden case will 'rise to impeachment' as 16 Romanian payments allegedly went to 'shell companies' <https://www.foxnews.com/media/mccarthy-biden-case-impeachment-16-romanian-payments-went-biden-shell-companies> --Biden notably boasted in 2016 how he told then-Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko to fire a prosecutor looking into Burisma | 25 July 2023 | House Speaker Kevin McCarthy predicted Republicans will gather enough evidence soon to mount an impeachment inquiry against President [sic] Biden, as the corruption scandal enveloping him and his son Hunter continues to grow. McCarthy, R-Calif., made reference to a relatively new revelation from the House Oversight Committee that -- while Joe was vice president -- Hunter Biden "capitalized" on a financial relationship with a Romanian national later convicted on corruption charges. According to prepared remarks from House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., in June, the Bidens received more than 1 million in 17 increments. McCarthy said Monday that 16 of those 17 payments went to what he described as "Biden shell companies" while Joe Biden was vice president. According to Comer's prepared remarks, the elder Biden had been "lecturing Romania on anti-corruption policies" while instead being a "walking billboard for his...family to collect m-ney."

Funnel Cloud Spins Over Capitol as McCarthy Floats Impeachment Inquiry of Joe Biden <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/funnel-cloud-spins-capitol-as-mccarthy-floats-impeachment/> | 25 July 2023 | A funnel cloud was spotted over the US Capitol building on Tuesday as Speaker McCarthy floated an impeachment inquiry of Joe Biden. McCarthy floated impeachment Monday night during an appearance on Fox News after it was reported Hunter Biden?s former business associate will testify on Joe Biden?s corruption. Hunter Biden?s former associate and convicted felon, Devon Archer, is reportedly cooperating with Republican lawmakers and will testify this week on the 10 million Ukraine-Biden bribe. According to New York Post reporter Miranda Devine, Devon Archer is going to sing like a canary and tell Congress that Hunter Biden put his dad, then-VP Joe Biden on speakerphone into meetings with his foreign business associates at least two dozen times.

Security Footage Undermines Key Claims in Police Report in Death of Rosanne Boyland on Jan. 6 <https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/exclusive-security-footage-undermines-key-claims-in-police-report-in-death-of-rosanne-boyland-on-jan-6-post-5414489> | 24 July 2023 | After CPR and other lifesaving efforts inside a basement entrance to the U.S. Capitol failed, Jan. 6 protester Rosanne M. Boyland was moved up one level to the Crypt, where D.C. Fire and EMS Department paramedics continued resuscitation efforts for another 40 minutes, new security video shows. Previously unreleased Capitol Police closed-circuit-television footage obtained by The Epoch Times adds crucial new details to the tragic story of Ms. Boyland, 34, of Kennesaw, Georgia, who died after collapsing outside the Lower West Terrace tunnel on Jan. 6, 2021. The security video deflates claims made in the initial Capitol Police report that Ms. Boyland simply collapsed in the Capitol Rotunda at 5 p.m. on Jan. 6, 2021, and that the officer who observed her "wandering around the Rotunda" immediately began cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Nothing that the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) relayed to Ms. Boyland's family from the Jan. 7, 2021, report turned out to be true, except that she was dead. As the security video conclusively shows, Ms. Boyland didn't collapse in the Rotunda, and paramedics didn?t find her there receiving CPR from two unidentified Capitol Police officers.

Coup 2024 already underway: Democratic law firm argues mail boxes 'unsecure' for voting, in suit pushing for ballot drop boxes <https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/elections/democrats-claim-mail-boxes-unsecure-voting-lawsuit-pushing-ballot-drop> --Marc Elias, whose law firm filed the lawsuit, advocated for states to switch to mail-in voting because of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020. | 25 July 2023 | In a lawsuit to overturn a Wisconsin Supreme Court ruling that concluded ballot drop boxes are illegal, a Democratic election law firm is now arguing that U.S. Postal Service mailboxes are in fact "unsecured." The state's high court ruled last year, in a 4-3 decision, the Wisconsin Elections Commission was not authorized to allow the use of the such boxes, as alternative balloting, during the 2020 presidential "election." The majority opinion was based on the interpretation of state rules and considered a loss to liberals who largely support the method... The Elias Law Group is suing the commission on behalf of Priorities USA, the Wisconsin Alliance for Retired Americans and a voter over the ruling against ballot drop boxes. The group's stated mission in part reads: "Committed to helping Democrats win, citizens vote, and progressives make change."

House panel moves toward vote on holding Zuckerberg in contempt over censorship investigation <https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/technology/house-judiciary-committee-toward-vote-mark-zuckerberg-contempt> | 25 July 2023 | The GOP-controlled House Judiciary Committee is scheduled to vote on holding Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg in contempt over a lack of cooperation with an investigation into Big Tech censorship. The committee announced it would vote on the motion on Thursday. The committee said the company has not cooperated with Chairman Jim Jordan's (R-OH) requests for information on the website's content moderation practices. Jordan has been leading several investigations into Meta as part of his role as the leader of the House Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government. "Meta has critical information that it has not turned over to the committee regarding federal government efforts to censor speech online and how Meta responded to those efforts," Jordan's spokesman Russell Dye told Punchbowl News on Monday. "It is imperative the committee get these materials, and we will take whatever actions necessary to facilitate that end."

Three U.S. Marines mysteriously found dead in car at gas station by Camp Lejeune - authorities <https://nypost.com/2023/07/25/three-young-marines-mysteriously-found-dead-in-car-at-gas-station-by-camp-lejeune-authorities/> | 25 July 2023 | Three young U.S. Marines were found dead inside a car at a North Carolina gas station Sunday morning, and authorities are still trying to figure out how they died. "There's nothing to believe it to be foul play or anything," Sgt. Chester Ward of the Pender County Sheriff's Department told ABC affiliate WTVD News. "We're waiting for an autopsy report, but we have no idea of probably what happened." Ward said no drugs were found in the vehicle. The grim discovery occurred when deputies responding to a missing person's report found the three dead men in a four-door sedan parked outside a Speedway convenience store in Hampstead, about an hour's drive from Camp Lejeune. The bodies were found around 9 a.m. Sunday, the sheriff's office said on Facebook.

Edward Dowd Drops Bombshell Data: Hematological Claims Up 522% Above Trend in 2022 <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/ed-dowd-drops-bombshell-data-hematological-blood-related/> | 24 July 2023 | (Via Vigilant Fox Substack) "We were looking for data like this, and we found it in the UK Personal Independence [Payment] (PIP) system," announced former BlackRock portfolio asset manager Edward Dowd on the Dr. Drew show. "We need the help of the medical community and the regulators to explain what's going on because it's alarming." "And you can see, I'll point out hematological [blood-related]...that's up 522% in 2022. And I want to say this is versus trend. It's not versus 2021 or 2020. It's versus a trend that we analyzed from 2016 to 2019. So it's a percent increase over trend. And the trends were stable -- and then this exploded."

LeBron James's Son Bronny Rushed to ICU After Suffering Cardiac Arrest at Practice; LeBron Previously Stated Covid-19 Vaccine Was Best Suited for Him and His Family <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/lebron-james-son-bronny-rushed-icu-after-suffering/> | 25 July 2023 | Bronny James, the son of NBA Star LeBron James, suffered medical emergency at basketball practice on Monday morning and was rushed to the hospital. Bronny, who recently committed to play college basketball at USC, was rushed to the ICU after suffering cardiac arrest during a basketball workout at USC. A spokesperson for the James family stated, ?Yesterday while practicing Bronny James suffered a cardiac arrest. Medical staff was able to treat Bronny and take him to the hospital. He is now in stable condition and no longer in ICU.? James, a four-star recruit and one of the staple pieces of USC's top-five incoming recruiting class, signed with the Trojans this offseason... LeBron James previously boasted about how the Covid-19 vaccine was the best thing for him and his family.

Federal judge deals major blow to Biden administration with ruling on immigration policy <https://www.foxnews.com/politics/federal-judge-blocks-biden-administrations-asylum-policy-migrants> | 25 July 2023 | The Biden administration was dealt a major blow in its efforts to control the ongoing border crisis on Tuesday when a federal judge blocked a rule introduced in May that makes migrants ineligible for asylum if they have entered illegally and failed to take advantage of expanded lawful pathways set up by the federal government. Judge Jon Tigar of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California blocked the Circumvention of Lawful Pathways rule in response to a lawsuit from a coalition of left-wing immigration groups, which claimed the rule was similar to a Trump-era transit ban that was similarly blocked. He found the rule is "both substantively and procedurally invalid" and has delayed his ruling from taking effect for 14 days to give the administration time to appeal. The rule formed the centerpiece of the administration's strategy to deal with the expiration of the Title 42 public health order in May.

"This morning, the governor was in a car accident while traveling to an event in Chattanooga, Tennessee," Press Secretary Bryan Griffin said, according to Fox News. "He and his team are uninjured." Further information about the wreck was not immediately available. "We appreciate the prayers and well wishes of the nation for his continued protection while on the campaign trail," Griffin also said.

Obama's Personal Chef, Who Mysteriously Drowned in Former President's Martha?s Vineyard, Took Swimming Lessons in 2019, Video Reveals <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/obamas-personal-chef-tafari-campbell-who-mysteriously-drowned/> | 25 July 2023 | An unexpected twist has been revealed in the case surrounding the tragic death of former President Obama's personal chef, Tafari Campbell, who was found drowned in a pond on the Obamas' Martha's Vineyard property. Contradicting initial assumptions that Campbell may have drowned due to an inability to swim, internet sleuths have uncovered a 2019 video revealing Campbell undertaking swimming lessons. Campbell, 45, of Dumfries, Virginia, was recovered from the Edgartown Great Road by Massachusetts State Police divers on Monday. The recovery occurred approximately 100 feet from the shoreline at a depth of about eight feet. The Massachusetts Environmental Police Officers using side-scan sonar first located the victim?s body, according to a news release from Massachusetts State Police.

Biden's dog bit seven Secret Service agents <https://www.rt.com/news/580288-biden-dog-bit-agents/> | 25 July 2023 | Joe Biden?s dog bit seven people in a four-month period, including a Secret Service agent who was hospitalized with arm and leg injuries, according to internal emails obtained by conservative activists. The dog is the second of Biden's canine companions to terrorize the White House. The most serious incident took place last November, when the then one-year-old German shepherd -- named "Commander" -- came down a flight of stairs and bit an agent who was sitting at the bottom with his arms folded. Commander bit the agent on his arm and his thigh...according to a Secret Service email published on Tuesday by Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group. The agent was sent to a local hospital by the White House physician?s office, and was taken off active duty for three days following the attack.

Pentagon Approves Hazard Pay for U.S. Troops in Ukraine, Paving Way for Possible Expanded Presence <https://www.zerohedge.com/military/pentagon-approves-hazard-pay-us-troops-ukraine-paving-way-possible-expanded-presence> --Troops can earn 325 in total monthly "imminent danger pay" | 28 July 2023 | There's been more confirmation to emerge concerning the American military presence in Ukraine, and its expanding role in the conflict, bringing NATO dangerously closer into a potential hot war with Russia. "The Pentagon has authorized additional hazard pay for U.S. troops serving in Ukraine, a defense official confirmed Thursday," according to the publication Military Times. "The bonus, known as imminent danger pay, is offered to troops who serve in areas where they could be harmed by hostile fire or mines, insurrection, civil war or terrorism." The statement also interestingly said that qualifying troops in Ukraine will be authorized back pay as far back as April 24, 2022--which strongly suggests a significant U.S. presence inside the war-ravaged country since then, or from the opening months of the conflict.

Ukraine targeted Russian city with missile - Moscow <https://www.rt.com/russia/580469-taganrog-missile-terrorism-mod/> --The Russian military condemns the incident in Taganrog as a "terrorist attack" on civilians | 28 July 2023 | The Russian Defense Ministry has acknowledged that a missile struck the south-west port city of Taganrog on Friday, calling the incident a "terrorist attack" by Ukraine. The city center was hit by a major blast on Friday, with at least 15 people injured, according to local authorities. Ukrainian forces used a re-purposed missile from a Soviet-era S-200 anti-aircraft system to target the city, the military said. The missile was "intercepted" by Russian forces, but fragments ended up falling on the city, it added. "As a result of the terrorist act committed by the Kiev regime, several buildings were damaged, and there are also casualties among civilians," the statement said.

Russian Army Destroys 3 German Leopard Tanks and 2 French AMX Wheeled Tanks in South Donetsk <https://sputnikglobe.com/20230728/russian-army-destroys-3-german-leopard-tanks-and-2-french-amx-wheeled-tanks-in-south-donetsk--1112216056.html> | 28 July 2023 | The Ukrainian military lost nearly 300 soldiers and five tanks in the South Donetsk direction in the past 24 hours, the Russian Defense Ministry said on Friday. The ministry mentioned that the Ukrainian forces have continued to make attempts to attack in South Donetsk, Donetsk, and Krasny Liman directions. The ministry mentioned that all attacks have been repelled. "Up to 180 Ukrainian servicemen [in Zaporozhye and South Donetsk area], five tanks, including three German Leopards and two French AMX wheeled tanks, 17 infantry fighting vehicles, two armored fighting vehicles, a U.S.-made M777 artillery system, and an anti-aircraft missile system combat vehicle were destroyed, as well as the fighting vehicle of the anti-aircraft missile system Strela-10," the ministry said in a statement, adding that another attack was repelled near Vremevka Ledge, where Ukraine lost up to 110 soldiers after its sabotage group was neutralized.

Biden Cut a Massive Check to Ukraine After Forcing a Family to Pay $60,000 to Move Soldier's Remains <https://townhall.com/tipsheet/saraharnold/2023/07/27/biden-cut-a-massive-check-to-ukraine-after-forcing-a-family-to-pay-60000-to-move-soldiers-remains-n2626315> | 27 July 2023 | In the latest tactic of President [sic] Joe Biden's "put America last" agenda, the administration cut another massive check to Ukraine while families of lost soldiers are being forgotten. This week, the Biden administration approved another 400 million in additional military aid for Ukraine, making it the 43rd time the U.S. has sent weapons from its supply to the foreign country... The aid package includes air defense missiles, armored vehicles, and small drones. It was approved through Presidential Drawdown Authority (PDA), which allows the president to transfer articles and services from U.S. stocks without congressional approval in emergencies. However, several critics question whether the Russia-Ukraine war should still be considered an emergency... This comes as reports reveal a family who lost their daughter in Afghanistan while serving the U.S. was billed 60,000 to move her remains to her final resting place.

Democratic presidential candidate RFK Jr. denied Secret Service protection by Biden administration <https://justthenews.com/events/robert-kennedy-jr-says-he-was-denied-secret-service-protection-biden-administration> --After 88 days of no response,[illegitimate] Biden regime denies candidate's request | 28 July 2023 | Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said Friday the Biden administration has denied him as a 2024 presidential candidate Secret Service protection.Since the assassination of my father in 1968, candidates for president are provided Secret Service protection. But not me," tweeted Kennedy, in a long-shot bid to beat President [sic] Biden in the Democratic primary. "Typical turnaround time for pro forma protection requests from presidential candidates is 14-days," he also said. "After 88-days of no response and after several follow-ups by our campaign, the Biden Administration just denied our request." According to the Secret Service website: federal law authorizes the agency to "provide protection for major presidential and vice presidential candidates."

Trump faces additional charges in classified documents case <https://justthenews.com/government/courts-law/special-counsel-charges-mar-lago-maintenance-chief-trump-documents-case> | 27 July 2023 | Former President Donald Trump faces additional charges in special counsel Jack Smith's case over his allegedly improper retention of classified materials. The former president faces allegations of obstruction and willful retention of national defense information, the Associated Press reported. Trump has previously pleaded not guilty to 37 counts in the case. Smith's office has also indicted the Mar-a-Lago estate's head of maintenance in connection with the case of former President Donald Trump's alleged mishandling of classified materials.

Collapsed Hunter Biden plea deal would have given president's son immunity for host of potential crimes <https://www.foxnews.com/politics/collapsed-hunter-biden-plea-deal-presidents-son-immunity-host-potential-crimes> --Botched agreement legally protected first son from alleged drug, gun violations, foreign business deals | 27 July 2023 | Hunter Biden's plea deal with federal prosecutors, which fell apart during his first court appearance in Delaware on Wednesday, would have granted him broad immunity, protecting him from prosecution over a wide range of alleged and potential federal crimes, according to newly released documents. The son of President [sic] Biden was expected to plead guilty to two misdemeanor counts of willful failure to pay federal income tax as part of a deal to avoid jail time on a felony gun charge. Specifically, the legal arrangement involved both a plea agreement over the tax charges and a related pretrial "diversion agreement" regarding a separate felony charge of possession of a firearm by a person who is an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance. Under the diversion agreement, the government wouldn't charge Biden with the more serious gun charge if he pleaded guilty to the tax charges.

Hunter Biden could STILL be charged over deals with China and Ukraine as 'sweetheart' plea deal on tax and gun charges dramatically collapses in Delaware court drama <https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12339857/Hunter-Biden-arrives-court-plead-guilty-two-tax-misdemeanors-sweetheart-deal.html> --Hunter's court appearance spiraled into chaos after first plea deal fell apart --U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika questioned the terms of the agreement --New compromise hashed out means Hunter is still on the hook for more crimes | 26 July 2023 | Hunter Biden could be on the hook for more criminal charges related to his business deals with China and Ukraine after prosecutors and his legal team negotiated a limited new plea arrangement -- because their first one sensationally collapsed. The compromise hashed out in dramatic scenes in court includes his failure to pay taxes and lying about his crack cocaine addiction when he bought a gun -- but it doesn't shield him from future prosecution for other crimes. The president's scandal-hit son said "yes, your honor" when asked by the judge if he would plead guilty to two tax misdemeanors and admitted he's been to rehab six times in 20 years for addiction to drinking and drugs. But then the agreement between prosecutors and the defense suddenly fell apart when the president's son was warned he could still be charged for his shady foreign dealings that Republicans say involve his father, Joe. Hunter's attorney Chris Clark said the deal was "null and void" after top prosecutor Leo Wise said Hunter was still being investigated for potential violations related to representing foreign governments. 

Hunter Biden plea deal falling apart in stunning turn of events as prosecutors keep future charges alive <https://nypost.com/2023/07/26/hunter-biden-arrives-at-court-accompanied-by-sugar-brother-kevin-morris/> | 26 July 2023 | First son Hunter Biden's plea agreement was collapsing Wednesday as federal prosecutors declined to rule out charging the political scion with other crimes in the future. The stunning turn of events came more than 90 minutes into the hearing at the federal courthouse in Wilmington, Del., where Hunter had been expected to plead guilty to two misdemeanor counts of willful failure to pay taxes and enter a diversion program on a felony federal weapons charge. But prosecutors told U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika there was still a possibility President [sic] Biden's 53-year-old son would be charged with offenses, potentially including failing to register as a foreign agent for lucrative dealings in countries such as China and Ukraine that allegedly involved his father. Defense attorney Chris Clark refused to move forward with the deal after it became clear that the federal investigation into the first son was ongoing. "As far as I'm concerned, the plea agreement is null and void," Clark reportedly told the court a little before noon.

FBI Told Delaware U.S. Attorney It Had Already Partially Corroborated Biden Bribery Claims, Source Says <https://thefederalist.com/2023/07/24/fbi-told-delaware-u-s-attorney-it-had-already-partially-corroborated-biden-bribery-claims-source-says/> --FBI agents told the Delaware U.S. attorney's office they had already corroborated multiple details in the FD-1023, a source told The Federalist. | 24 July 2023 | When the Pittsburgh FBI office briefed the Delaware U.S. attorney's office on evidence implicating Hunter and Joe Biden in a bribery scheme, the agents also told the Delaware team they had already corroborated several aspects of the confidential human source's claims, an individual familiar with the briefing told The Federalist. On Thursday, Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, released the FD-1023 summary of a confidential human source's reporting that the Ukrainian oil and gas company Burisma paid Hunter and Joe Biden each 5 million in bribes so the then-Vice President would "protect" Burisma "from all kinds of problems." Those bribes were in addition to the more than 4 million in total paid to Hunter Biden and his business partner Devon Archer for sitting on Burism's board of directors. 

Jordan Releases 'Smoking Gun Docs' Confirming Facebook Bowed to White House Censorship Demands <https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/jim-jordan-white-house-facebook-censorship/> --Unredacted Facebook emails released by Rep. Jim Jordan today expose White House demands to quash narratives, and remove memes and posts contradicting the government's COVID-19 messaging. | 27 July 2023 | Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) today released today a series of unredacted emails from Facebook, that he characterized as proof the White House and other federal agencies exerted pressure on the social media company to censor authors whose posts ran counter to the government?s official pandemic narrative. The emails were provided by Facebook and Instagram parent company Meta to the House Judiciary Committee's Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government as part of its ongoing investigation. The move forestalled the committee?s deliberations today about whether or not to hold Mark Zuckerberg in contempt for withholding requested documents. In his lengthy Twitter thread, Jordan called the emails "smoking gun docs," proving "Facebook and Instagram censored posts and changed their content moderation policies because of unconstitutional pressure from the Biden White House." 

New Zealand's former COVID tyrant Jacinda Ardern appointed to censorship role at Harvard <https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/new-zealands-former-covid-tyrant-jacinda-ardern-appointed-to-censorship-role-at-harvard/> --The Censorship-Industrial Complex has found a new champion in Jacinda Ardern, who infamously asserted that 'we will continue to be your single source of truth' on the subject of COVID-19 when she was New Zealand's prime minister in 2020. | 25 July 2023 | Former Prime Minister of New Zealand Jacinda Ardern has been rewarded with a prestigious fellowship at Harvard University. As the Berkman Klein Center (the Center) at Harvard reports, "The Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University is thrilled to announce Jacinda Ardern as its first Knight Tech Governance Leadership Fellow." Ardern herself claims she will ?address online harms? and violent extremism online..." According to the Center, whose past scholars have worked with Matt Taibbi on The Twitter Files, Ardern will be at the forefront of the fight against a new threat -- "algorithmic harms."

The Censorship Regime: How an Old-School Democrat Is Being Targeted for Destruction by the Totalitarian Deep State <https://www.michaelrectenwald.com/essays/the-censorship-regime-how-an-old-old-school-democrat-is-being-targeted-for-destruction-by-the-totalitarian-deep-state> By CLG News Founder Michael Rectenwald, Ph.D. | 24 July 2023 | Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is a not only a scion of the most famous political family in modern American history, but for the establishment, he also represents the most potentially damaging figure to throw his hat in the presidential ring in recent years. Bearing the most popular surname in U.S. politics, Kennedy has nevertheless been in the regime?s crosshairs, partly for his Children's Health Defense website, which the regime claims has been promoting vaccine "misinformation" and "disinformation" for over twenty years and partly for his opposition to the proxy war in Ukraine... So far, Kennedy?s political assassination has been undertaken with propaganda, lies, and defamation of character. Kennedy even faces the ritual condemnation of his own family members and is reviled by the contemporary Democrat Party establishment... The Democratic members of the Subcommittee on the Weaponization of Government displayed, in real time, the weaponization of the federal government and the totalitarian impulses that Kennedy has launched his candidacy to oppose.

mRNA COVID Vaccines May Be Triggering 'Turbo Cancers' in Young People - Experts <https://www.theepochtimes.com/health/mrna-covid-vaccines-may-be-triggering-aggressive-turbo-cancers-in-young-people-experts-5375766> | 28 July 2023 | Experts are seeing a puzzling rise in cancer in people under 50 that appears biologically different from late-onset cancers. While some claim cancer rates have been rising for decades and attribute the increase to sugary drinks, lifestyle, and sleep disruptions, others say mRNA COVID-19 vaccines have caused an emergence of ?turbo cancers?--and U.S. regulatory agencies have not addressed the ever-growing problem. Although there is no official medical definition for what doctors are calling "turbo cancers," the term is commonly used to define aggressive, rapid-onset cancers resistant to treatment--primarily in young, healthy individuals following COVID-19 vaccination. These cases often present in a late stage with metastasis and quickly turn fatal. "What's happening is these cancers we're used to seeing, their growth patterns and their behavior are completely out of character...So 'turbo cancer' is something that wasn't there and, all of a sudden, it's everywhere," Dr. Ryan Cole, a pathologist and CEO of Cole Diagnostics, said in an interview on EpochTV's American Thought Leaders.

Ship carrying nearly 3,000 cars catches fire possibly due to electric vehicle, 1 dead <https://nypost.com/2023/07/26/ship-carrying-3000-cars-ablaze-off-dutch-coast-crew-member-dead/> | 26 July 2023 | A fire blazed on a ship off the Dutch coast with nearly 3,000 vehicles on board on Wednesday, killing one member of the crew and injuring several others, the coastguard said. The fire began on Tuesday night on the 199-metre Panama-registered Fremantle Highway, which was en route from Germany to Egypt, forcing several crew members to jump overboard... Rescue ships sprayed water onto the burning boat to cool it down, but using too much water risked its sinking, the Dutch coastguard said. The fire might last for several days, Dutch news agency ANP reported, citing the coastguard. The coastguard said on its website that the cause of the fire was unknown, but a coastguard spokesperson had earlier told Reuters it began near an electric car. Roughly 25 out 2,857 vehicles on the ship were electric.

Rogue Biolab Discovered in Calif. County Had Over 900 Mice 'Genetically Engineered to Catch and Carry the Covid-19 Virus' <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/china-linked-bio-lab-fresno-co-california-had/> | 29 July 2023 | On March 3, 2023, an illegal bio lab was discovered in a believed-to-be vacant building in Reedley, California, in Fresno County. City Code Enforcement stumbled upon the building in December 2022 when they discovered a garden hose running into the building through a hole in the wall.  In March, they obtained a warrant to inspect the property, and in April, the Fresno County Department of Public Health ordered an inspection of the facility. Investigators inspected the building that contained the lab in July and found a room used to make COVID-19 tests and pregnancy tests. They also found over 35 freezers and refrigeration units that contained "thousands of bodily fluids, serums, tissues, and other medical items." According to the Mid Valley Times, "Over 900 mice were located at the facility. Court documents identify Wang Zhaolin as the Prestige representative onsite during the investigation. Zhaolin informed the investigators that 'these mice were genetically engineered to catch and carry the COVID-19 virus.' ...From May 2 through May 4, the CDC's Division of Select Agents and Toxins inspected 850 I Street. Court documents confirm the CDC found potentially infectious agents at the location. These included both bacterial and viral agents, including chlamydia, E. Coli, streptococcus pneumonia, hepatitis B and C, herpes 1 and 5 and rubella. The CDC also found samples of malaria."

CDC detects coronavirus, HIV, hepatitis at unlicensed California lab <https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/officials-believe-fresno-warehouse-was-site-illegal-laboratory-rcna96756> --The CDC found at least 20 potentially infectious agents at Fresno County warehouse | 27 July 2023 | Local and federal authorities spent months investigating a warehouse in Fresno County, California, that they suspect was home to an illegal, unlicensed laboratory full of lab mice, medical waste and hazardous materials.  The Fresno County Public Health Department has been "evaluating and assessing the activities of an unlicensed laboratory" in Reedley, the health department's assistant director, Joe Prado, said in a statement Thursday. All of the biological agents were destroyed by July 7 following a legal abatement process by the agency... An investigation found the tenant was Prestige BioTech, a company registered in Nevada and unlicensed for business in California.

U.S. rejects Australian plea to drop Assange case <https://www.rt.com/news/580512-blinken-rejects-assange-australia/> | 29 July 2023 | U.S. Secretary of State [and Grade 'A' sociopath] Antony Blinken has confirmed that Australia has raised the case of Julian Assange?s continued prosecution, but declared that Washington will not cease seeking the extradition of the former WikiLeaks boss and intends to try him for espionage. Speaking alongside Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong in Brisbane on Saturday, Blinken said that while he understands "the concerns and views of Australians," Assange's alleged actions "risked very serious harm to our national security, to the benefit of our adversaries, and put named human sources at grave risk -- grave risk -- of physical harm, and grave risk of detention." ...An Australian citizen, Julian Assange is currently being held in London?s Belmarsh Prison. He is fighting extradition to the US, where he faces 17 charges under the Espionage Act and potentially a 175-year prison sentence. 

Trump Says Criminal Charges 'Wouldn't Stop Me' From 2024 White House Bid <https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/trump-says-criminal-charges-wouldnt-stop-me-from-2024-white-house-bid-5431359> | 29 July 2023 | A potential criminal conviction will not stop former President Donald Trump from pursuing his 2024 White House bid, he said on Friday. In an appearance on The John Fredericks Show, when asked whether a potential conviction would hinder his presidential campaign, Mr. Trump expressed his determination to run no matter the outcome. Mr. Trump responded confidently, stating that there is no provision in the U.S. Constitution that would prevent him from running for president, even if he were to be convicted. "If going forward, right, you get these indictments, there ends up--you got a jury in D.C., you get convicted and sentenced--does that stop your campaign for president if you're sentenced?" Mr. Fredericks asked Mr. Trump in the interview. "Not at all. There's nothing in the Constitution to say that it could," Mr. Trump replied. "Even the radical left crazies are saying, 'No, that wouldn't stop!' And it wouldn't stop me either."

Judge Noreika Banned Hunter Biden's Attorneys From Contacting Clerks Again After Tricking Them Into Removing Filing Under False Pretenses of Representing GOP Lawyer <https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/07/furious-judge-noreika-issues-order-prohibiting-hunter-bidens/> | 29 July 2023 | Furious Judge Maryellen Noreika ordered the lawyers representing Hunter Biden, who had deceived and lied to a court clerk into removing a legal document by falsely claiming to represent GOP lawyer Ted Kittila, to cease all direct communications with court clerks. The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Hunter Biden's legal team is facing possible sanctions after they lied about their identity to have the testimony of IRS whistleblowers removed from the docket in Hunter's tax fraud case. Judge Maryellen Noreika had demanded an explanation from Biden's lawyers by 9 p.m. ET Tuesday night. This controversy happened on the eve of Hunter Biden's plea of guilty to misdemeanor tax charges on Wednesday, while he is expected to avoid jail time on a separate gun charge. A member of Biden's legal team misrepresented herself when asking for amicus materials to be removed. According to reports, she called the clerk and requested that the information be sealed due to its sensitive nature, including grand jury, taxpayer, and Social Security details.
