President Joe Biden is delaying his decision on whether to cancel a substantial amount of federal student loan debt until July or August, it was reported on Monday.The president promised on April 28 to have an answer ready in 'the next couple of weeks.'
Earlier that month, Biden had extended a moratorium on student loan payments and interest that was in place since March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. But now he's choosing to move his announcement closer to when that extension expires at the end of August, officials told the Wall Street Journal.
Taylor Lorenz, the establishment media journalist known for doxing teenagers and anonymous meme accounts and literally crying because of the ensuing backlash, is under fire for repeated errors in reporting which she refuses to acknowledge. The Washington Post, which published Lorenz’s shoddy reporting, is also under attack by Oculus VR founder Palmer Luckey for publishing and then deleting false claims about him.
According to Luckey, the Washington Post falsely claimed he funneled political contributions through “shell companies,” only to later delete the allegation with no disclosure. Luckey’s comments come in the same week that the Washington Post was forced to acknowledge it “stealth-edited” an article by controversial writer Taylor Lorenz to hide

An inside attack on a US military base in Syria that injured four soldiers might have been carried out by a fellow service member, Army officials said. The potential suspect is back stateside as the Army’s Criminal Investigation Division and Air Force Office of Special Investigations probes the April 7 attack on the base called Green Village, an Army spokesperson said. The explosives were put in an ammunition holding area and shower facility. Two officials told CNN the explosives were “not insignificant” and had more detonation power than a hand grenade. The four soldiers were evaluated for possible traumatic brain injuries and other minor injuries.
Mexico’s president is reviving calls for a continental superstate that would combine North American employers and South American employees–and sideline tens of millions of middle-class Americans.
“I will go in July to visit [President Joe Biden] at the White House and I want to discuss with him the issue of the integration of all America,” President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said at a press conference in Mexico’s presidential palace. He continued: “My position is that, just as how the European community was created… we have to do that in America.”(Snip)The same continent-wide superstate was pushed in 2001 by President G.W.

The White House on Monday reminded Americans frustrated with record-high gas prices that the cost of fuel was even higher in foreign countries. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre responded to questions about high gas prices during the daily briefing by noting it was “really important” that people understood that prices were higher across the globe. She noted that gas prices in the European Union were $8.15 a gallon, prices in Germany were $8.88 a gallon, and prices in Canada were $6.23 a gallon. “This is a global challenge, this is something that everyone is feeling across the globe,” she said, arguing that gas prices
The CDC is advising travelers to wear masks as it confirms there are now 31 cases of monkeypox in 13 states in the United States.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez slammed fellow Democrats who won’t use the umbrella term “Latinx” to refer to Hispanic people and Latin Americans. The New York Democrat said those in and out of her party who question the validity of the term are making other peoples’ self-identification about themselves. “There are some politicians, including Democratic politicians, who rail against the term Latinx, and they’re like ‘this is so bad,’ ‘this is so bad for the party,’ and like blah, blah, blah, and it’s almost as though it has not struck some of these folks that another person’s identity is not about your reelection prospects,” Ms. Ocasio-Cortez, who is

Guns Are Not the Problem
replies
In the wake of recent mass shootings in New York, Texas, and Oklahoma, Democrats are once again sending Americans up a blind alley. Their “solution” is to punish millions of law-abiding gun owners for the crimes of a few evil maniacs. Undeniably, there is a certain appeal to this response. Gun control is a facile “fix” to a complex problem.
Americans have owned guns since the founding, but it wasn’t until comparatively recently that mass shootings became a concern. Guns are not the problem. Our culture is. Broken cultures produce broken human beings. For every school shooter, there are thousands of other weak, confused, mentally disturbed men

ALBANY, N.Y. — New Yorkers under age 21 will be prohibited from buying semiautomatic rifles under a new law signed Monday by Gov. Kathy Hochul, making the state among the first to enact a major gun control initiative following a wave of deadly mass shootings.
Hochul, a Democrat, signed 10 public safety-related bills, including one that will require microstamping in new firearms, which could help law enforcement solve gun-related crimes.Another revised the state’s “red flag” law, which allows courts to temporarily take away guns from people who might be a threat to themselves or others.“In New York, we are taking bold, strong action.

The US State Department once again is resuscitating the idea of reopening a Jerusalem consulate. But according to Al-Arabiya, the US is committed to the reopening of the US consulate in Jerusalem. Ned Price, the State Department spokesman told reporters last Tuesday that, “We continue to believe it can be an important way for our country to engage with and provide support for the Palestinian people.” If that is to happen, the Biden administration will be responsible for rewarding the Palestinians for their intransigence and terror, as well as undermining Israel’s sovereignty over a united Jerusalem.

Whether it be his continued efforts to “deter” Russian President Vladimir Putin after the invasion of Ukraine had already begun or responding to the baby formula shortage after shelves had gone bare, President Joe Biden’s reactionary leadership has been putting America last for nearly a year and a half now, and his latest move to ramp up domestic energy production is sure to do the same.On Monday, the White House announced that the president will be invoking the Defense Production Act (DPA) along with other executive actions to try to combat the overwhelming reality that the Democratic policy initiatives are crippling the American economy.
PBS “Washington Week” host Yamiche Alcindor on Monday emphasized the importance of the investigation into the Capitol Hill riot from January 6, 2021. According to Alcindor, getting to the bottom of the January 6 riot should matter more to the American people than the record-high gas prices and inflation, the baby formula shortage, abortion and the recent mass shootings.“This is about the American experiment and whether or not we want our democracy to fall apart or whether or not we want to look at what happened on January 6 and be cautioned by it and learn from it

Joy Behar ripped Republicans on Monday’s episode of The View, going after the party for their pessimistic approach to policy. During a conversation about the ongoing baby formula shortage in the U.S., Behar slammed conservatives for refusing to cooperate with Democrats, claiming they are too focused on making President Joe Biden “look bad.”Her comments came as The View panel discussed the recent re-opening of America’s largest baby formula plant. Before Behar blasted the party, her co-host Whoopi Goldberg pointed out that in May, 192 Republicans had “voted against easing the baby formula shortage with $28 million in emergency spending,” while only 12 voted in favor.
There was a major problem with the 2020 Census, and most people probably haven’t heard about it, even though it has enormous implications. At the end of May, the Census Bureau admitted that it miscounted 14 states in the 2020 Census.
Why didn’t the media make a big stink about this story? Maybe it was overshadowed by the recent mass shootings, that’s certainly a possibility, but I have another theory.
Here are the states that the Census acknowledged it overcounted: Hawaii, Delaware, Rhode Island, Minnesota, New York, and Massachusetts.
Here are the states that the Census acknowledged it undercounted: Texas, Illinois, Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Arkansas.
Well, gee, isn’t that interesting.
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson survived a no-confidence vote Monday that could have ousted him from power as discontent with his rule grows amid a fight for his political life.
Conservative members of parliament voted 211-148 in favor of letting Johnson stay in power during a secret ballot in Westminster.
In an interview with Sky News, Johnson called the vote a "decisive result," despite the fact that 40% of members of his own party split from him.
"I think it's an extremely good, positive, conclusive, decisive result which enables us to move on, to unite and to focus on delivery (of services)," he said.

First on Fox: Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton on Monday launched an investigation against Twitter, claiming that the company has underreported its fake bot accounts and those numbers have negatively impacted consumers and businesses.
Paxton’s office said "bots," or spam accounts, "inflate followers and reach, and often push deceptive and annoying activity." "A large number of bot accounts not reduces users’ experience on the platform, but may also inflate the value of the company and the costs of doing business with it, thus directly harming consumers and businesses – specifically, Texas consumers and businesses," Paxton’s office said in a statement shared with FOX Business.

President Joe Biden on Monday announced a fifth flight from Operation Fly Formula, which will bring infant formula from Germany to the United States. The flight will transport Nestlé infant formulas from Cologne, Germany, to Fort Worth, Texas, arriving stateside on June 9. The delivery will include 110,000 pounds of Nestlé NAN SupremePro Stage 1 infant formula, approximately 1.6 million 8-ounce bottles. The new announcement comes as the Biden administration is battling questions about when it learned about the formula shortage and why it wasn't better prepared to deal with the rows of empty grocery store shelves as anxious parents worried about how they would feed their babies.
The family of a top advisor to Bill Clinton who admitted Jeffrey Epstein to the White House multiple times during his presidency is pulling out all the stops to keep details of his mysterious death becoming public. They have petitioned a judge to prevent pictures of Mark Middleton's death scene being released under the Freedom of Information Act. And now the local Arkansas sheriff is interpreting that to mean he can't talk or release any details of Middleton's May 7 suicide.(Snip)His death adds to the number of close associates of the former president and first lady who have died unexpectedly, many in small plane crashes.
The Biden administration is about to give one of the biggest US technological breakthroughs of the 21st century to Russia and China—free of charge. That’s not the administration’s goal, of course. But it’s the inevitable result of a proposed deal that US negotiators recently struck in Geneva, Switzerland, at the World Trade Organization. The pact would effectively nullify intellectual-property protections on COVID-19 vaccines, including the next-generation mRNA shots from US companies Moderna and Pfizer. These mRNA platforms represent decades of research backed by billions of dollars in public and private investment. But if the WTO votes in favor at its summit starting June 12, our strategic

Joe Biden took office promising the most diverse presidential administration in history. Not cohesive, not experienced, and certainly not competent, but definitely diverse.
We’re all familiar with Biden’s biggest hits in the diversity game, starting with his vice president, Kamala Harris. The former California senator couldn’t get her own presidential campaign off the ground in 2019, even after she attacked her future boss for being a segregationist at heart. But Biden was determined to make a woman of color the next vice president of the United States, and lucky Kamala was in the right place at the right time.

As I noted on Thursday, Ilya Shapiro’s reinstatement at Georgetown’s law school may have been a victory for outside pressure against the forces of cancel culture, but it also sent an unambiguous signal that Georgetown would have caved to the mob and fired Shapiro if it was at liberty to do so, and would lie in wait for the first instant that a student found it politically useful to claim offense at Shapiro in order to make that happen once his defenders had let down their vigilance. That makes an obvious mockery of the university’s supposed commitment to the sort of robust free speech we associate with academic freedom

In Ukraine, a hundred days of warfare has passed and the Russians are still there, pounding cities, and not going away. In the east, they appear to be gaining ground in taking control of the Donbas.

Bipartisan investigations are a rarity in Washington, D.C. The constituencies likely to be affected or to suffer collateral damage are usually enough to derail them from gaining momentum.
