For the second press briefing in a row, the White House took a beating from the press due to President Joe Biden’s personal physician hiding from hungry reporters’ questions on the state of Biden’s COVID treatment, recovery, and overall health. You know it's bad when reporters from CBS News, The New York Times, and NewsMax all grilled the White House COVID-19 response coordinator Ashish Jha on the administration’s lack of transparency.
A schism characterized by documents on “grace through separation” has brought forth a lawsuit.
In Florida, 106 churches sued the United Methodist Church (UMC) because it charged them large amounts of money to leave, according to a recently filed lawsuit.
The National Center for Life and Liberty (NCLL) represents these churches.
The departure price varies from church to church, said Jonathan Bailie, the chief operations and financial officer of the NCLL.
Some congregations must pay over $1 million, while others must pay under $100,000, he clarified. But in previous decades, leaving the UMC has been free.
Republican officials in the House and Senate ripped into the Biden administration after it attempted to redefine what constitutes a recession while concerns mount about a significant decline in economic activity this year.
On Thursday, ahead of a potentially negative GDP report expected later this week — the annualized economic growth rate shrank by 1.6% in the first quarter of this year and appears to have contracted even more in the second — a White House blog post attempted to redefine the term “recession.” “While some maintain that two consecutive quarters of falling real GDP constitute a recession, that is neither the official definition nor the way economists evaluate the state of the business cycle,”
Appearing at Turning Point USA’s “Student Action Summit” in Tampa, Florida, former President Donald Trump absolutely ripped into Pelosi and other far-left loons like Adam Schiff, hilariously describing Nasty Nancy as a nut job” and a “psycho”.
That came as part of a long riff on Schiff, Pelosi, and her husband, saying:
“We don’t talk about what we should be and you say, ‘Where does it stop? Where does it all end?’ It probably doesn’t stop because despite the great outside dangers. Our biggest threat remains the sick and sinister and very evil people from within our country.
“Guys like [Rep. Adam] Schiff and people like crazy Nancy Pelosi — she’s nuts.
Four people in Wisconsin with disabilities have filed a lawsuit asking a federal court to ensure that they’ll be able to get help turning in their ballots, even though the conservative-controlled state Supreme Court said no one other than the voter can return absentee ballots in person.

Republican Senator Chuck Grassley is hold the FBI and Justice Department's feet to the fire on Hunter Biden, demanding the agencies answer claims from a whistleblower they downplayed negative information on Hunter Biden in the lead up to the 2020 election.
Grassley revealed on Monday that 'highly credible' whistleblowers have come forward alleging a widespread effort within the FBI to discredit negative information about President Joe Biden's son.
'The information provided to my office involves concerns about the FBI's receipt and use of derogatory information relating to Hunter Biden, and the FBI's false portrayal of acquired evidence as disinformation,' Grassley wrote FBI Director Christopher Wray and Attorney General Merrick Garland,
Up to seven players from the Manly rugby league club in Sydney, Australia, are threatening to boycott their match Thursday after a decision was made without consultation for them to wear a gay pride jersey in the fixture. Management of the Sea Eagles, as they are known, announced on Sunday night players would wear an LGBTQIA+ jersey for the match, with a rainbow design replacing the strip’s traditional white hoops. That decision has caused unrest among some players unhappy they were not consulted by club management, ABC News Australia reports.(Snip)Sea Eagles coach Des Hasler reportedly told the players he understood they were put in a difficult decision and supported
Jared Kushner was diagnosed and treated for thyroid cancer while working in the White House.
Kushner wrote about his cancer scare - which never leaked to the press - in his forthcoming memoir, Breaking History: A White House Memoir.
The New York Times reported on an excerpt of the book on Monday.
In it, Kushner recalled a conversation he had with White House physician Sean Conley on an October 2019 trip to Texas.
'On the morning that I traveled to Texas to attend the opening of a Louis Vuitton factory, White House physician Sean Conley pulled me into the medical cabin on Air Force One,' Kushner wrote. '
More than 500,000 known “gotaway” immigrants have crossed the border into the US but evaded capture since the start of FY 2022, according to a new report. Multiple senior Department of Homeland Security sources confirmed the number to Fox News on Monday, revealing that there has been an average of more than 55,000 known “gotaways” per month. “Gotaways” is a commonly used term for illegal immigrants who have been spotted crossing the border by agents or on camera but were not caught or processed by officials. With less than three months left in the fiscal year, 2022 has already seen a massive increase in the “gotaway” from the previous year
The Wall Street Journal on Sunday accused Telsa CEO and SpaceX founder Elon Musk of having an affair with the wife of Google co-founder Sergey Brin, causing Brin to file for divorce. Musk fired back, calling the WSJ a “sub-tabloid” and claiming that he had just been hanging out with Brin that very day. A Twitter post from this morning showing Brin and Musk partying appears to be authentic, as Musk replied to the tweet with, “Yeah, that was Sergey and me yesterday afternoon!” The Journal article, last updated at 12:30 AM EST on Monday, paints a wholly different picture. They come out charging with their first sentence:
The leak rocked the federal judiciary, the American political scene, and led to an ugly campaign to intimidate Supreme Court justices, inspiring one assassination plot that thankfully went nowhere. Chief Justice John Roberts promised an investigation to identify the leaker, and the pool of suspects seemed relatively small — the justices themselves and their clerks. Almost three months later, though, the leaker has seemingly escaped detection and punishment.
Are they even still investigating the leak? The Associated Press can’t even get an answer to that question from the court:
It is still unclear what exactly Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) Jan. 6 committee is trying to accomplish, but a bipartisan group of 16 senators proved this week the body’s work is not necessary to reach real, productive, commonsense electoral reform.
Negotiated by Sens. Susan Collins (R-ME) and Joe Manchin (D-WV), the Electoral Count Reform and Presidential Transition Improvement Act is perhaps most praiseworthy for what is not in it. Specifically, all of the highly partisan and harmful provisions of the Democrats' preferred electoral legislation — The For the People Act, which would have banned voter identification requirements, among other things — have been removed from this bill.

Some things are so obvious that it surprises me that no one else says it. I am surprised no one pointed out to Justice Kagan that we have a Supreme Court to do that which is unpopular. The Court protects the Constitution from The Mob.

Brandon just got back from his trip to beg the sheiks of Saudi Arabia to pump more oil to keep prices lower for American consumers, a trip made more ridiculous even than it sounds at first glance thanks to Biden’s heated, anti-Saudi rhetoric, his administration’s hostility to American energy producers, and the lack of any reason for the Saudi’s to go along with what Biden wants given his attempts to strike a deal with Iran and the fact that they make more money when prices are higher.
And, unsurprisingly, it doesn’t really appear to have worked. The Saudis will do as they please, particularly when Biden is
As concerns mount about a possible recession this year, White House National Economic Council director Brian Deese argued that a second consecutive quarter of negative GDP growth was technically “not a recession.”
According to Deese, the “technical definition considers a much broader spectrum of data points.” He also emphasized the need to look ahead rather than “technical debates about backward-looking data.”
CNN “New Day” host John Berman said, “It sounds like you’re anticipating what will be comments from some saying two quarters of negative growth in a row — that’s a recession.”
“Right,” Deese replied. “And certainly, in terms of the technical definition, it’s not a

The Facebook co-founder and his wife, the philanthropist and former pediatrician Priscilla Chan, quietly sold their Golden City pad in an off-market deal worth $31 million, The Post has confirmed. This marks the largest residential deal in San Francisco this year, beating a pair of penthouses that once belonged to the late Secretary of State George Shultz for a combined $29 million, the Real Deal first reported.

How badly have things in the US gotten, particularly in the realm of media and censorship?
So badly that now even avowed leftist Noam Chomsky is describing the current, anti-Russian censorship regime as being worse than the censorship regime in the Soviet Union.
That comment came when Chomsky appeared in a recent interview with Russell Brand on his podcast, “Under the Skin,” a podcast in which Brand routinely demolishes, or at least attacks, the totems and shibboleths of the modern liberal world order.

The former chief of staff to Vice President Mike Pence appeared last week before a federal grand jury investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, sources familiar with the matter told ABC News.

General Motors' joint venture with LG Energy Solution is on track to receive a multibillion-dollar loan from the U.S. government to build battery cell plants for electric vehicles, including one going up in Lansing. On Monday the Department of Energy announced "a conditional commitment" for $2.5 billion to GM and LG's 50-50 joint venture called Ultium Cells LLC. "While this conditional commitment demonstrates the Department’s intent to finance the project, several steps remain, and certain conditions must be satisfied before the Department issues a final loan," the DOE said in a blog posted Monday.

Is there a dumber show on television than “The View?” I mean, Joy Reid’s MSNBC show exists, so probably, but it’s got to be up there, right?
On Monday, the round table of liberal women decided to discuss the recent TPUSA summit that took place in Florida, which some RedState writers attended. Naturally, that meant lots of breathless accusations that in no way reflect reality. One of those surrounded “nazi” protesters who appeared outside the conference. Our own Brandon Morse videoed himself making fun of them if that gives you an idea of how much support they had among conservatives at the event.

Establishment Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) is underwater with Alaskan Republican voters, according to a Monday Morning Consult poll.
Only 41 percent approved of Murkowski’s job performance, while 46 percent disapproved.
The polling comes as Murkowski, who is supported by Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), hopes to defeat Donald Trump-endorsed Kelly Tshibaka in the August 16 Republican primary. In March polling, Murkowski trailed Tshibaka (45.4 to 28.7 percent).Murkowski’s campaign has been flooded with donations from large political action groups. Murkowski ended the second quarter with $6.1 million in her campaign account with a second quarter raise of $1.7 million. In contrast,

Asked if he could go back to March of 2020 and start over with the pandemic response, Dr. Fauci admitted that mistakes were made in his and the CDC's response to COVID's initial spread but refused blame for collateral damage caused by public health officials. What he did admit? That masking and social distancing restrictions should have been "much, much more stringent" than they were.

Author Jeffrey Frank has written two biographies of American presidents, one about Harry S. Truman and another about the relationship between Dwight D. Eisenhower and his Vice President Richard Nixon. He draws on that knowledge of history to argue that President Biden is doing a poor job preparing VP Harris to succeed him.
Vice President Kamala Harris, who was a first-term senator from California before entering the White House, hasn’t been given the sort of immersive experiences or sustained, high-profile tasks that would deepen and broaden her expertise in ways Americans could see and appreciate. In the modern era, of course, a 68-day trip for a vice president would be laughable.
It is almost with an air of inevitability that the images and hyperventilating coverage of a group of Nazis will sweep across the media landscape with most any political gathering in Florida. The message of a DeSantis connection is clear, and the lasting impression of a growing problem of hatred in Florida is desired. That it is all built on a farcical premise and relies upon a group of stunted dolts is made obvious with any encounter of these "Nationalists Without A Country."

How can it be that with so much cattle in America, we sometimes can't buy meat?
At the beginning of the pandemic, Costco, Wegmans and Kroger limited purchases of beef. Hundreds of Wendy's outlets ran out of hamburgers.
"How the hell can this be?" says Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., in my new video. "They (Wendy's) were out of hamburger, yet you could see cattle from the drive-thru!"

A Fox News Digital analysis of child sex crime data in school districts around the nation has found a minimum of 181 K-12 educators have been arrested on child-related sex crimes in the first half of 2022.
Among those educators arrested were four principals, 153 teachers, 12 substitute teachers, and 12 teachers’ aides. The crimes ranged from child pornography to rape of students.
“Arrests that weren’t publicized were not counted in the analysis, meaning the true number may well be higher,” Fox News Digital reported.
According to the analysis, at least 77 percent, or 140 of the arrests, constituted alleged crimes against students.

Hallie, who was in a tumultuous relationship with Hunter at the time, took Hunter's gun from his car on Oct. 23, 2018, wrapped it in a shopping bag, and threw it in a trashcan outside a

In addition, Biden could reportedly face charges regarding tax violations and lying about illegally buying a firearm.

Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin suggested that abortion bans in some states could actually violate religious beliefs in a column on Sunday.
Rubin introduced the subject by referencing a lawsuit brought up by the Jewish Congregation L’Dor Va-Dor against the 15-week abortion ban in Florida. The congregation argued that Jewish law "does not consider life to begin at conception or at 15 weeks" and refusing an abortion could violate their beliefs.
Though Rubin questioned whether this would sufficiently infringe on "First Amendment rights and the state constitution’s free-exercise clause," she still considered the issue "important."
"In any event, this is an issue the forced-birth crowd should care about."

Del Rio Sector Border Patrol officials sounded the alarm after reporting the apprehension of more than 1,600 previously convicted criminal migrants who illegally entered the U.S. during the current fiscal year. The news comes after the arrest on back-to-back days of deported sex offenders.
“Thanks to agents in the Del Rio Sector, these two criminals won’t be on our streets,” Del Rio Sector Chief Patrol Agent Jason D. Owens tweeted. “This is why we need our agents on patrol. This is our mission.”
The chief reported his agents apprehended two more criminal aliens on back-to-back days in July.
Professionals who need a graduate degree to ply their trade—doctors and lawyers, mostly—are incredibly protective of their ability to work in their chosen professions. They’ve invested years and tens (or even hundreds) of thousands of dollars in attaining their credentials, passed licensing exams, gotten checked out by the police, and worked years in their field to attain the upper-middle-class success to which they aspire. That’s why the latest leftist tactic is one of the most vicious: trying to disbar attorneys who worked on Trump’s election lawsuits.
In the wake of the 2020 election, many questions arose about the power of the vice president of the United States during the counting of the electoral votes. The 12th Amendment provides that, in the counting of electoral votes, the president of the Senate (the vice president) shall “in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates and the votes shall then be counted.” The clause is ambiguous; clearly, the vice president is tasked with opening the certificates (the electoral votes certified by the states).
Before departing for its summer recess, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to take up Moore v. Harper, a redistricting dispute between North Carolina’s legislature and Supreme Court. The latter struck down two congressional maps enacted by the former and then imposed its own redistricting scheme. The North Carolina General Assembly petitioned SCOTUS to rule that this violated the U.S. Constitution. Predictably, the mere fact that the justices agreed to hear the case at all has produced panic among Democrats and a deluge of dire predictions about the demise of democracy.
ROME — Aborting unborn children is the opposite of healthcare, the U.S. Bishops declared Monday in a statement condemning the Women’s Health Protection Act as “the most unjust and extreme” abortion bill our nation has ever seen.
On Friday, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Women’s Health Protection Act (H.R. 8296), a bill that would impose abortion-on-demand nationwide at any stage of pregnancy and would eliminate pro-life laws at every level of government.
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) hit back at Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg for criticizing his reported decision to vote “No” on legislation that would codify same-sex marriage.
Speaking with CNN’s Jake Tapper on Sunday, Buttigieg was asked to comment on Rubio reportedly calling same-sex marriage legislation a “stupid waste of time” as Americans face so many struggles. “If he’s got time to fight against Disney, I don’t know why he wouldn’t have time to safeguard marriages like mine. This is really important to a lot of people. It’s important to me,” said Buttigieg.
“Our marriage deserves to be treated equally. I don’t know why
Every day it sounds more and more like President Donald Trump is going to run for a second term in 2024. According to multiple legacy media outlets (here | here | here), he will announce his bid for the White House in the next 45 days. This creates a situation that is not favorable to Liz Cheney’s aberrant fantasies about roosting in the White House (The Delusional Cope Behind Liz Cheney’s Coming Humiliation) and has set the bowels of the establishment and Vichy Republicans a-bubbling.
The New York Post, reportedly President Trump’s favorite newspaper, has come out swinging against the idea of President Trump running again.
MSNBC analyst Malcolm Nance predicted that a litany of horrors and injustices would certainly follow if Republicans were successful in their efforts to retake control of the House, the Senate, or both in November’s midterm elections.
Nance spoke with Sirius XM radio host Dean Obeidallah on Friday about the upcoming elections, and he made it clear that the seriousness of the predicament in which Democrats find themselves could not be oversold.
“What should Democrats be doing?” Obeidallah asked.“It’s battle stations! The Democrats, Joe Biden, all the rest of them need to understand they are… What are we? July, August, December, October, November. You are four months from the end of American democracy.
