Former Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger announced the launch of a new political action committee aimed at supporting Democrats willing to challenge Republicans he accuses of putting “loyalty to President Donald Trump ahead of loyalty to America.” Kinzinger, who served as one of two Republicans on the now-defunct January 6 Select Committee, endorsed former President Joe Biden and later former Vice President Kamala Harris during the 2024 presidential election. In an ad announcing the launch of Back the Bold PAC, he said, “Washington has failed to hold itself accountable to the American people.” “Trust me, I lived it,” Kinzinger says in the ad. “Too many politicians are afraid to tell the truth,

Pennsylvania joined several other states in declining to participate in the Great American State Fair on the National Mall in Washington, DC, claiming that it was because of “the high cost to taxpayers” and being unable to find businesses willing to “sponsor the booth.”
In a statement to the Hill, a spokesperson from the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development cited those reasons, adding that the state “will not be a participant in the Great American State Fair.”
Pennsylvania opting out of participating in the Great American State Fair, which began on June 25 and goes until July 10, comes as other Democrat-governed states such as Maine, Massachusetts, Washington, Illinois, Oregon,
Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg was the target of an anonymous report that police determined was false and that he says forced him to spend a night away from his four-year-old twins.
Buttigieg wrote in a Substack post that a Michigan State Police officer told him they found nothing to substantiate the anonymous allegation and believed it was politically motivated. He described the 24-hour ordeal as “among the darkest hours of my life.”
In a statement, Michigan State Police said they received an “anonymous report” and that they and child protective services “responded and determined the report was false.”

and Rapists, Early 4 replies
The UK's unpopular and outgoing Prime Minister Keir Starmer is leaving a parting gift for the British people by releasing thousands of violent convicts, including foreign-born criminals who are unlikely to be deported. Labour’s prison reform plan has triggered a political storm after the government introduced changes that could send thousands of offenders back into communities earlier than expected. Justice Secretary David Lammy will implement legal changes that will see criminals convicted of murder and sex crimes released later this year.
The reforms will allow eligible prisoners to leave custody sooner under revised release rules as part of the Labour government's efforts to reduce prison overcrowding.

teaching ‘brutal’ Islam sparks political battle 3 replies
A proposed change to Texas‘s high school social studies standards is sparking outrage by requiring teaching about “the Prophet Mohammed’s brutal military campaigns.”
Texas’s Republican-controlled Board of Education passed an amendment that included the Islam-related history guidance on Thursday while postponing a further vote on high school standards until September, according to multiple reports. Activists encouraged Texans to contact board members to advocate against the standards before a Friday meeting scheduled to address other social studies proposals, such as the inclusion of biblical stories for study.
LONG BEACH, Calif.—Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin on Thursday put China on notice, naming it the No. 1 source of illegal pesticide smuggling attempts into California’s ports.
Appearing at an undisclosed location near the Port of Long Beach and standing in front of a table full of the illegal pesticide DDVP, Zeldin said the top two foreign countries of concern for the EPA are China and Mexico.
“No. 1 is China, first and foremost. We also are concerned about what we see coming in from Mexico,” Zeldin told the Daily Signal. “At other ports, not specifically here, especially on the East Coast, we’ve been concerned
Democratic New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is shelling out $15 million in an effort to broaden transgender services for city residents, Them first reported Friday.
The Mamdani administration’s new effort will include three initiatives designed to bolster access to “gender-affirming” care in New York City: a “direct” transgender service access fund, a call and text line to aid transitioners and additional funds for LGBTQ “medical care,” according to online LGBTQ magazine Them. Mamdani’s office did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

Dallas lawmakers signed off Wednesday on a $18.5 million incentive package to lure a $1.3 billion Morgan Stanley office tower to the city, The Post has learned — and this week’s stunning victories by far-left New York pols could expedite the exodus of businesses.
Officials at the Dallas City Council unanimously rubber-stamped the deal 15-0 that would give the New York-based bank a special economic grant and up to a decade of property tax abatements, according to a municipal filing reviewed by The Post.
In exchange, the Wall Street giant would build a major regional office downtown and shift nearly 5,000 jobs to the city — the latest coup for
GOP activist Scott Pressler found himself barred from entry Thursday to a dinner at the South Dakota Republican State Convention, where Senate Majority Leader John Thune was the featured speaker.
Pressler garnered national attention and praise for his work during the 2024 election. His efforts in Pennsylvania were widely acknowledged to have won that state for President Donald Trump, allowing him to secure victory.
In recent months, Pressler has been increasingly critical of Thune for his failure to get the Senate to pass the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, which would require voter ID and other common-sense requirements for elections, promoting a greater degree of integrity and legitimacy.
Thirteen Democratic House members and candidates have signed onto a new centrist initiative called “Promise to America,” explicitly declaring “We are capitalist, not socialist” and calling for secure borders, fiscal responsibility, and national pride.
The announcement comes days after Democratic Socialists of America-backed candidates won several primaries in New York, bringing to light the ongoing tensions inside the Democratic Party as it prepares for the 2026 midterms under President Donald Trump. The full text of the pledge outlines six core principles.
Under “Growth, Competition, and Broad Prosperity,” it states: “We are capitalist, not socialist.” It calls for an economy that rewards hard work, lowers costs, and expands opportunity rather than

Court rulings are for the Left’s sabotage machine? 1 reply
The left wing has worked hard to find very clever ways to stop President Trump’s agenda without ever winning an election. The formula was sinister and simple. Trump announces a new immigration policy. That cues progressive activist groups to race to court and file a lawsuit. A friendly federal activist judge somewhere in California, Hawaii, or D.C. slaps an injunction on the policy, and just like that, everything grinds to a screeching halt. The left is hoping that months drag on and turn into years, letting the lawsuits pile up, and hopefully the policy dies a slow, lonely death before the American people ever get to see if it works.
An illegal alien has been sentenced to eight years in federal prison for his involvement in an $89 million fraudulent payroll scheme that saw illegal alien construction workers and their employers evade taxes.
“Today, we held an illegal alien from Honduras accountable for a brazen scheme that stole more than $38 million from American taxpayers to facilitate the employment of illegal aliens,” Assistant Attorney General Colin McDonald said.
“This case exposes how unchecked illegal immigration fuels widespread payroll tax fraud and underground economies that harm American workers and taxpayers,” McDonald said. “This sentence sends a strong message: Those who exploit our open borders, cheat the U.S. Treasury, and violate federal laws

Amy touched upon this this morning. There was a terrible no-call that occurred during the Indiana Fever-Phoenix Mercury game last night. Phoenix Forward Alyssa Thomas punched Clark in the throat. No whistle was blown: (tweets/video)This is an obvious flagrant 2, but the league is allowing Clark to be used as a punching bag. Even Indiana’s coach, Stephanie White, torched the league for letting this slide: (snip)Yet, that’s not the only indignity—Clark was left off the 30th anniversary cover of the WNBA.

Air Conditioning? It’s Illegal!

Britain is in even worse shape than I thought. From the Telegraph: “Air conditioning torn from homes under net zero clampdown.”
Homeowners are being forced to tear out air conditioning from their private properties under climate laws, despite rising temperatures.
Council planning officers ordered residents to remove air-con units over fears they produce too much carbon dioxide, stating they should only be used as a “last resort”.
The net zero clampdown is part of building regulations that state “active cooling” should only ever be allowed when all other means of “passive cooling”, such as opening windows or using fans, have been exhausted.
So whether you can air condition your home
The New York City Rent Guidelines Board approved Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s key campaign promise to “freeze the rent” on Thursday — in a move landlord advocates slammed as “an absolute farce.”
The board passed a rent freeze on both one-year and two-year leases for the Big Apple’s roughly 1 million rent-stabilized units in a 7-1 vote. Arpit Gupta, an appointee of Mamdani’s predecessor Eric Adams, was the one no vote.
It came hours after the public resignation of one of the RGB’s nine members, Christina Smyth, who accused the panel of ignoring its own data during the lengthy process to decide whether to adjust rents —
The company formerly known as Dominion Voting Systems is ending a $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit against Mike Lindell, the MyPillow magnate and President Trump ally who has promoted false claims that the 2020 election was stolen.
Dominion sued the businessman in 2021, alleging that Lindell knew there was no evidence to support his election conspiracy theories, but used the lies to sell pillows. When he was sued, Lindell told WCCO's Esme Murphy that he was "very happy" about the lawsuit, saying the truth would come out.
In October 2025, Dominion was acquired by St. Louis-based Liberty Vote, which was founded by former Republican elections director Scott Leiendecker.
More than a dozen travelers were banned from sailing with Carnival Cruise Line after fighting at the port in Miami.
The altercation took place in the Customs and Border Protection debarkation area, according to the company. The June 22 fight occurred between two families and police responded, the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office (MDSO) said.
“The incident was deemed a mutual combatant incident,” MDSO told USA TODAY in an email. Police documented the fight, but the parties declined to press charges.
“We are appreciative of law enforcement’s swift response and handling of the matter,” Carnival said in an emailed statement. “We do not tolerate such behavior, and 16 people have been placed
Democratic strategist James Carville called for a “schism” in the Democratic Party, stating that he wants nothing to do with the likes of three candidates who won their Democratic primaries in New York. On Tuesday, three candidates endorsed by New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani, a democratic socialist, won Democratic primaries for the House of Representatives.
Former NYC comptroller Brad Lander crushed Rep. Dan Goldman to earn the nomination in the 10th district.
Midway through the second quarter of the Indiana Fever’s 111-109 loss to the Phoenix Mercury on Wednesday night, WNBA superstar Caitlin Clark went to the floor and lost control of the ball while being defended by Lexi Held of the Mercury.
Amid the scramble for the ball, Mercury forward Alyssa Thomas landed on Clark, pushed her fist into Clark’s throat, then stepped over her.
Despite the egregiousness of the incident, no foul was called. After the game, Fever coach Stephanie White called the play a “cheap shot.” Clark left the game with 5:15 to play in the third quarter because of a back issue that was aggravated
NEW YORK — Mayor Zohran Mamdani got another major win Thursday night when the Rent Guidelines Board voted to freeze rents on the city’s roughly 1 million rent-stabilized apartments. The mayor-appointed panel voted 7-1 to freeze rents on both one- and two-year leases, an unprecedented move that came despite protests from landlords that it would push them into deeper financial straits. The freeze, which will cover some 2 million tenants, will take effect for leases signed starting in October.

Gustavo Gordillo is the co-chair of the Democratic Socialists of America in New York City. During a recent interview with Spectrum News, he explained how the DSA is basically exploiting the Democrat Party’s infrastructure to get their people elected.
It just confirms that these people are not even Democrats. They are an anti-Israel, Marxist contingent that is merely using the Democrat party instead of building a party of their own.
Regular Democrats are so starved for wins, that they are allowing it to happen.

Denmark is considering a nationwide ban on the Islamic call to prayer, with the country’s immigration minister saying it should not be heard “over Danish rooftops.”
Morten Bødskov said the government will reopen an investigation into whether the noise can be legally prohibited across the country.
“The call to prayer should not be heard over Danish rooftops,” Bødskov told Danish news agency Ritzau.
“It has no place in Denmark, and you shouldn’t be in any doubt whether you’ve ended up in a suburb of Islamabad when you walk around Denmark.”
Conservative Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito could barely contain himself Thursday after liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor opted to read her full dissent in an immigration case from the bench, a rare rebuke of her colleagues.
Alito began by briefly summing up his majority opinion in Mullin v. Al Otro Lado, in which he held that the government has the right to turn back migrants stopped at the US border before giving them a chance to apply for asylum.
As Sotomayor read her 35-page dissent, Alito — never known for his poker face — began rocking back and forth in his chair before leaning forward, propping
President Donald Trump's meeting with Senate Republicans might have been meant to find a way to pass voter ID and citizenship verification legislation, but it devolved into a tense shouting match over the war in Iran.
Tensions among Senate Republicans were already simmering with Trump over his last-minute decision to nuke the 21st Century Road to Housing Act, a bipartisan housing package filled with his priorities that the GOP viewed as an easy win to sell to voters in the upcoming midterm elections.
Trump described the closed-door affair in a positive light afterward.
"I think we had a really great meeting, and we're very proud of the party,"
