Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said on this week’s broadcast of Fox News Sunday that it was appropriate for demonstrators to protest outside a restaurant where Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh was dining.
Buttigieg said, “You’re never going to be free from criticism or peaceful protests, people exercising their First Amendment rights, and that That’s what happened in this case. Remember, the justice never even came into contact with these protesters, reportedly didn’t see or hear them. And these protesters are upset because a right, an important right that the majority of Americans support, was taken away.”
Maryland's Governor Larry Hogan, a Republican, assessed Sunday that Donald Trump's "influence is diminishing," pointing to significant primary losses by GOP candidates endorsed by the former president.
Hogan has long been critical of Trump, with the GOP governor repeatedly clashing publicly with the ex-president throughout his White House tenure. Following the 2020 election and the pro-Trump January 6, 2021 attack against the U.S. Capitol, Hogan has condemned the former president's election lies and his efforts to subvert democracy.
A female US Army soldier took to TikTok to question her loyalty to the United States after the Supreme Court's reversal of Roe v. Wade. "How am I supposed to wake up every day and put on a freaking uniform that says United States Army when the United States doesn't even give a rat's ass about me," the soldier said.
In 2019, the Army advised soldiers not to use TikTok on government-owned phones, citing national security risks from the Chinese app. China-based employees also have access to US user data.
President Joe Biden blamed Republicans for soaring gas prices in a Sunday tweet, moving on from the “Putin-price hike” shtick.
Biden attempted to shift blame onto Republicans as a way to drive up support amongst voters for the November midterms.
“Republicans are doing nothing but obstructing our efforts to crack down on gas-price gouging, lower food prices, lower healthcare costs, and hopefully, soon, lower your prescription drug costs,” Biden tweeted. “This is not right. And that’s why this election is going to be so darn important.” (Tweet)

Democrats and Never-Trumpers want Trump dead.
During a discussion on whether President Trump will run again in 2024 one of the guests, Mark Leibovich, admitted Democrats have no plan for Trump’s three-peat except hoping he dies.
Mark Leibovich: “Look we have no plan for this, except sitting around hoping [Trump] dies.”
Vice President Kamala Harris accused Texas Governor Greg Abbott of 'flame throwing' on Sunday after the Republican official directed state law enforcement officers to round up migrants and send them to federal border crossings. Abbott signed an executive order on Thursday allowing the Texas National Guard and Texas Department of Public Safety to arrest undocumented migrants and return them to the border.(Snip)'I would suggest that so-called leaders focus on solutions instead of attacks if they really are concerned about a problem, and that includes on the issue of immigration,' Harris responded. In a direct jab at Donald Trump, she said the previous presidential administration created 'a badly broken'
A California doctor is planning to offer abortions on a "floating clinic" in the Gulf of Mexico to circumvent state bans on the procedure. (snip) The plan is for the ship to act as a "comprehensive" reproductive health clinic with a full team of licensed health care providers offering surgical abortions up to 14 weeks, contraception and other care to patients living in states where such services are restricted, according to its website.
"Those in the most southern parts of Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, and Texas may be closer to the coast than to facilities in bordering states where abortion and reproductive health care are available," the website states.
It’s all out in the open now. We have a traitor and suicide bomber in the White House. No one is even bothering to hide it. Biden is clearly a suicide bomber, owned by the Chinese Communist Party and the Mexican Drug Cartel, and put in place to destroy America, American exceptionalism, capitalism, and most importantly, the great American middle class. I learned this plan at Columbia University, Class of ’83, alongside my classmate Barack Obama (who was never actually seen in any class at Columbia- but that’s a story for another day). The plan we learned at Columbia was called “Cloward-Piven.”
When President Biden visits the Middle East this week, he will pledge $100 million in funding to Palestinian hospitals in East Jerusalem, five Israeli officials told Axios. Two sources said that the president has asked Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates to match the funding pledge, which Axios described as an effort to engage the nations with the Israeli-Palestinian issue. On Saturday, the UAE announced $25 million in aid to Makassed Hospital in East Jerusalem, but the other two Gulf countries have not given the White House any funding commitments. The Biden administration likewise asked Israel to provide

“DC Service Industry Workers… If you see Kavanaugh, Alito, Thomas, Gorsuch, Coney Barrett or Roberts DM us with the details!” ShutDownDC wrote in a social media post on Friday: (Tweet) “We’ll venmo you $50 for a confirmed sighting and $200 if they’re still there 30 mins after your message,” the group added.
Social media users offered their opinions regarding the post, one person writing, “The left out here making the right look good.
Documentary filmmaker and gun control proponent Michael Moore published his idea for a new Second Amendment Sunday, and it features a ban on all semiautomatic firearms.
He announced his new amendment via Twitter:
Moore posted his new amendment on this webpage, explaining that it would be the 28th Amendment and that it would repeal and replace the Second Amendment.
Moore’s news amendment erases any talk of a right to “keep and bear arms,” positing, instead, an “inalienable right to be kept safe from gun violence.”
The amendment outlines the in-depth background check that would be required for gun purchases:
Twitter has hired a heavy-hitting Delaware-based law firm to sue Elon Musk for backing out of his $44billion deal to buy the company.
The social media giant hired the Watchell, Lipton Rosen & Katz, and plans to file suit against Musk early this week, Bloomberg reported.
The hiring of Wachtell gives the company access to lawyers Leo Strine and Bill Savitt, who previously served as Chancellors of the Delaware Chancery Court where the lawsuit would be heard.
