Hunter Biden may become an advocate for the right to bear arms if he's charged with purchasing a gun while being an active crack cocaine user. The first son faces a probe by the Justice Department over a handgun he purchased in 2018, a time when he has admitted he was often using crack cocaine. Drug users are federally prohibited from owning guns.
Lawyers for Biden told the Justice Department they will use the Second Amendment as defense for his purchase if he is charged, arguing that the prohibition on gun purchases for drug users is unconstitutional, a source told Politico.

The Walt Disney Co. is still planning to invest billions of dollars in Florida despite its ongoing legal battle with Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) that originated over the state’s anti-grooming law protecting school children from LGBTQ indoctrination.
At a recent conference, Disney parks chief Josh D’Amaro reportedly said the company is still looking to expand or enhance existing attractions at Disney World in Orlando to the tune of $17 billion.

Trump to end birthright citizenship by EO?
17 replies
Former President Donald Trump rolled out some new policy proposals this week as he shifts gears heading into the heat of the 2024 GOP primary. One of them that was obtained by Breitbart last night will probably raise a few eyebrows. Trump is promising “on day one” to sign an executive order ending birthright citizenship and putting restrictions on birth tourism, similar to proposals he made prior to his first run for the White House. These are both serious issues that we’ve addressed here in past years because they allow people to game the system and encourage illegal immigration.

Until Tuesday, the department store chain’s website was selling a boys’ T-shirt that displayed the words, “So happy to be me,” and featured a blue, pink, and white happy face — the colors of the transgender pride flag. The shirt was removed from Belk’s website just hours after Fox Business reached out asking if it was aware of the merchandise. The company did not provide a statement by press time.
“Show support with this kids’ Pride graphic t-shirt. Our toddler and youth t-shirt is soft and durable for everyday wear,” Belk’s description for the shirt stated.

A Target Corporation senior executive in the marketing department maintains a position with a controversial K-12 advocacy organization called GLSEN – Target's Pride Month partner – which is focused on integrating gender ideology at all levels of K-12 schools, from curriculum to district policy.
Carlos Saavedra is a vice president of brand marketing at Target and a treasurer at GLSEN. GLSEN focuses on getting districts to adopt policies that will keep parents in the dark on their child's in-school gender transition, providing sexually explicit books to schools for free, and integrating gender ideology at all levels of curriculum in public schools.
California Democrats, ostensibly “pro-choice,” want to restrict the choices provided by anti-abortion pregnancy crisis centers but have not succeeded in regulating them out of existence, despite many efforts to do so. (snip) Some of California’s past attempts to regulate pregnancy crisis centers have been ruled unconstitutional. In the case of National Institute of Family and Life Advocates (NIFLA) v. Becerra in 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down a California law requiring the pregnancy centers to post information about where to obtain abortions. The Court, in a 5-4 decision, found the law violated the First Amendment by compelling speech.

According to a press release from the Liberty Counsel, a non-profit public interest law firm, Humanities Professor Lance "Lj" Russum gave a student a “zero” on four separate papers because the 16-year-old did not “conform to his personal worldviews of Marxism, Atheism, Feminism, and homosexuality.” The law firm has called for a full, private investigation of the professor and the course curriculum.

Former White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Thursday on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” that the Republican base is “comfortable” with President Joe Biden because he is an older white man.
Anchor Joy Reid said, “I do feel like Biden has this misunderestimated thing where people assume, ‘Oh, he’s too old. He doesn’t know what he’s doing.’ And then he keeps delivering. Today, he tripped over, I guess there was a sandbag, and Twitter and the right are going crazy. It’s the most important thing in the world. First of all, Donald Trump is 76, he’s not exactly young.
