The Single Best Thing Americans Can Do to Retake America . . . The most frequent question people pose to me is: What can I/we do to fight back against the nihilistic anti-American destruction of virtually all the country’s major institutions? There is an answer. The single best thing Americans can do to counter the left-wing attack on America—against its freedoms, its schools, its families, its children, its governmental
institutions, its sports, its news and entertainment media, its medical establishment, the CIA, the FBI, the State Department, and the military—is to take their children out of America’s schools.
The vast majority of America’s elementary schools, high schools, colleges, and universities teach your child or grandchild race-centered hatred of whites, of America, and of America’s values. The schools prematurely sexualize your children, thereby robbing them of their innocence; and harm them intellectually and morally. In many elementary schools, your child is taught that gender is chosen and that there is no difference between boys and girls (in a growing number of schools, the
teachers are told not to call their students “boys and girls”); they are taught about masturbation; and many children from first grade on attend “Drag Queen Story Hour,” wherein an obvious man wearing women’s clothing, garish makeup, and a wig entertains them. Given that all this is well-known, why do any non-left—meaning, liberal or conservative—parents send their children to an American school?
Patents cannot necessarily even rely on Christian or Jewish schools. Most of them are as “woke” as most secular schools. And if they do find a school that teaches rather than poisons, they may not be able to afford the tuition. The only other option, then, is to homeschool one’s child. Daily Signal
Love Dennis Prager. Sensible suggestion. In practice, how do we do this? It is a daunting task, especially for mothers -- I assume this important task will fall on us, the "birthing persons," ;-)) -- who love their outside-of-home jobs and want to pursue meaningful professional careers. If you have specific viable recommendations, I am all ears.
More than 17,000 unaccompanied migrant children held in the US . . . More than 17,000 migrant children who have been sent alone by their parents to the United States are being kept in U.S. government facilities, according to NBC. “The surge has been nonstop,” says correspondent Gabe Gutierrez. “Some families taking a drastic step, choosing to separate, sending their children alone over the border, because they know the Biden
administration will let them stay.” Below is the horrifying report from the border, by a liberal mainstream outlet, that would have provoked outrage on the left had this still been the Trump administration. But it would not have happened under Donald Trump, because his tough-love policies kept people from taking these steps and creating the nightmarish crisis we now have. White House Dossier
Meantime, shortly, Joe will be gallivanting Europe, to hold meaningless meetings with Putin, expressing his concerns about other countries' sovereignty and human rights abuses.
Biden Heads to Europe to Restore Alliances and Counter Autocracy’s Rise . . . On his first foreign trip, President Biden will seek to rally European partners and other democratic nations against what he views as a threatening rise in authoritarianism. One of Biden's chief tasks in the coming days in Europe will be advocating for the primacy of the U.S.-led western liberal order that has been in place since World War II. On his eight-day
trip, Mr. Biden will meet with the bulwarks of that order, the Group of Seven nations, the European Union and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization defense alliance. The meetings come as the Chinese government seeks to extend its sphere of influence and eclipse the U.S. as the world’s most powerful nation. “We’re in a battle between democracies and autocracies,” Mr. Biden said last month during an address to troops at a military base in Hampton, Va. Wall Street Journal
How about fighting a budding autocracy, totalitarian socialism, and ever-expanding government control of citizens here at home, in America?
Biden ends talks on spending with Republicans after GOP refuses his tax plans . . . According to the Wall Street Journal, President Biden is proposing the biggest tax increase since the late 1960s. He abandoned bipartisan infrastructure talks with Senate Republicans on Tuesday over the party’s unwillingness to compromise on raising taxes. The White House said Mr. Biden decided to jettison talks because Republicans were not ready to
“meet the essential needs of our country to restore our roads and bridges, prepare us for our clean energy future, and create jobs.”
Republicans blamed the president for not backing off on his plan to raise taxes. White House Dossier
Dems Fight for Taxpayer Funding for Abortion . . . Democratic lawmakers are scrambling to overturn long-standing protections against taxpayer funding for abortion. Congressional Democrats on Tuesday reintroduced the Women's Health Protection Act, which would significantly limit the ability of states to pass pro-life reforms. The act aims to create safeguards around access to abortion in states that have passed laws restricting or outright
banning abortion after a fetal heartbeat is detected or after a certain number of weeks in a pregnancy. The legislation comes as Democratic senators push more taxpayer funding into federal grant programs and family planning programs that funnel tens of millions of dollars to organizations such as Planned Parenthood.

Tlaib, Democrats slam GOP calls for border oversight to fight opioid crisis . . . Rep. Rashida Tlaib (Mich.) and other Democrats on Tuesday slammed Republicans' calls for oversight of the southern border in order to fight the opioid crisis. During a hearing on the Sackler family’s role in the epidemic, several Republicans on the House Oversight and Reform Committee called attention to concerns that drug trafficking at the U.S.-Mexico
border is contributing to the opioid crisis and and fentanyl trafficking in the country. The Hill
Scottsdale residents furious as Biden admin converts hotel into ICE detention center . . . Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich and Scottsdale, Arizona residents are furious over the Biden administration converting a local hotel into an ICE detention center that will house hundreds of illegal immigrants. Brnovich castigated federal government leaders over the move that positions the facility near schools and a senior living
facility. Two hundred angry residents protested Saturday against the development and no public input was requested. The Scottsdale Police Department didn’t even get a say in the matter and were only notified of the decision the day before migrants were transferred. “The President is using Arizona as an experiment with his reckless border policies,” the attorney general previously said.

“Yes, I will.” Harris caves and says she will visit the border . . . Now that she has solved the problem of corruption in Latin America, she’s ready to visit the border. Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday said she will visit the U.S.-Mexico border but did not say when, as she completed a two-day trip to Guatemala and Mexico. “Yes, I will and I have before,” Harris in response to a question about whether she would visit the
border. White House Dossier
Kamala Harris Was Chosen ‘Due To Her Gender And Skin Color’: Leo Terrell . . . Fox News contributor Leo Terrell stated that he believes Joe Biden chose Kamala Harris as his Vice President due to her gender and skin color in a tweet Tuesday night. The tweet was in response to an on-air disagreement between Fox News contributors Katie Pavlich and Geraldo Rivera on Fox News’ “The Five,” in which Pavlich suggested President Biden chose
Harris as his Vice President based solely on her gender and skin color. Daily Caller
Hunter Biden Facilitated Deal for Democratic Consultants Now Under Federal Investigation . . . Emails from Hunter Biden's laptop show he was instrumental in setting up a consulting deal between a Ukrainian energy company and two Democratic consultants under investigation for violating foreign lobbying laws.
Biden and colleagues at the private equity firm Rosemont Seneca helped Burisma Holdings hire Blue Star Strategies, a firm owned by former Clinton administration officials. Biden's emails show he played a bigger role than anyone had known in arranging Blue Star's consulting work for Burisma. Neither Biden nor the Blue Star founders registered their work under the Lobbying Disclosure Act or the Foreign Agents Registration Act. Biden's work as a middleman could also explain why federal
prosecutors began scrutinizing Blue Star's work for Burisma. Washington Free Beacon

IRS Leak Reveals ‘Thousands’ of Wealthy Americans’ Confidential Tax Data . . . As the Biden administration works to double the size of the IRS and institute new income reporting requirements, an apparent internal leak revealed the confidential tax data of some of the wealthiest Americans. The data—published Tuesday by ProPublica—covers more than 15 years of tax returns filed by "thousands of the nation's wealthiest
people."cThe leak comes as the Biden administration pushes to hire nearly 87,000 new IRS staffers through an $80 billion budget increase. Washington Free Beacon
Shocking.
Someone leaked the IRS tax information of individuals to serve the left’s agenda . . . ProPublica, a website whose journalism promotes progressive causes, published information from what it said are 15 years of the tax returns of Jeff Bezos, Warren Buffett and other rich Americans. Leaking such information is a crime, since under federal law tax returns are confidential. ProPublica says it received the files from “an anonymous
source” and doesn’t know who provided them, how they were obtained, or what the source’s motives are. Allow us to fill in that last blank. The story arrives amid the Biden Administration’s effort to pass the largest tax increase as a share of the economy since 1968. The main Democratic argument for a tax hike is that the rich should pay their “fair share.” The ProPublica story is a long argument that somehow the rich don’t pay enough. The timing here is no coincidence,

The leftists have weaponized practically every government institution to force their destructive agenda on America.
Meat supply at risk? After two major disruptions in a year, industry confronts vulnerabilities . . . The recent cyberattack on massive meat processing conglomerate JBS has highlighted, for the second time over the past year, the vulnerabilities of the heavily centralized and concentrated slaughterhouse industry in the U.S. and across the world. Meatpacking in the U.S. is largely controlled by just four megafirms: JBS, Cargill, Tyson, and
National Beef. That kind of massive consolidation, although not foreign to other industries, poses significant risk by increasing the vulnerability of the meat processing industry to cyberattacks, in a world where cyberterrorists are growing increasingly refined and exacting. Just the

Gov. DeSantis seeks to shield Florida’s universities from Chinese espionage, theft . . . Florida’s Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill on Tuesday to protect higher education institutions in the state from espionage and intellectual property theft carried out by China’s Communist Party. Known as HB 7017, the bill requires more transparency and disclosure from scientists, technicians and administrators on foreign support for
postsecondary institutions. It also increases scrutiny for research grants. "Make no mistake — China is a hostile foreign power, and every Governor has the responsibility to protect their education system, and every other entity within their purview, from the espionage and commercial theft undertaken by the Chinese Communist Party," DeSantis said in a statement. Fox Business
Former Trump aides want Beijing punished for pandemic . . .
China‘s government is continuing to stonewall the international community by hiding details and information related to the coronavirus pandemic, according to a report by a group of former Trump administration officials. In response, the ex-officials are urging that sanctions be imposed on China and say Congress should pass legislation to punish Beijing for mishandling the COVID-19 outbreak that has caused more than 3 million deaths and ravaged the global economy. “Whether one
believes COVID-19 originated in a zoonotic host, a bat cave, a frozen food shipment, or a Wuhan lab’s dangerous ‘dual-use’ research supporting undeclared bioweapons programs, the world needs answers from the Chinese Communist Party,” the former officials said in a report published this week by the Hudson Institute, a think tank. Washington Times
To deter future COVID-like global crises, discharged by foreign adversaries, whether through negligence or by intentional bioweapons "leaks," China must be punished. Severely.

Iran “a matter of weeks” from nuclear breakout: Blinken . . . US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Monday that Iran has given no indication of returning to compliance with the 2015 nuclear deal and is meanwhile “galloping forward” with its nuclear program. “In some cases, enrichment is up to 20pc and even a small amount to 60pc.” with more advanced centrifuges. “If this goes on, [breakout] will get down to a matter
of weeks.,” Secretary Blinken warned in a wide-ranging hearing before the House Foreign Affairs Committee. DEBKAfile

U.S. Report Found It Plausible Covid-19 Leaked From Wuhan Lab . . . A report on the origins of Covid-19 by a U.S. government national laboratory concluded that the hypothesis claiming the virus leaked from a Chinese lab in Wuhan is plausible and deserves further investigation, according to people familiar with the classified document. The study was prepared in May 2020 by the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in
California and was drawn on by the State Department when it conducted an inquiry into the pandemic’s origins during the final months of the Trump administration. Wall Street Journal
Lindsey Graham: Skeptics of Wuhan lab leak theory ‘were covering their ass’ . . . A February 2020 statement signed by more than two dozen scientists that claimed the coronavirus naturally jumped from humans to animals was “orchestrated” to hurt then-President Donald Trump politically, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) charged Tuesday night. “This is the Russia dossier all over again,” Graham told Fox News’ “Hannity.” “This stinks to high
heaven. This is lab-gate, China-gate, call it whatever you want to call it.” Graham was referring to a message published in the British medical journal The Lancet that dismissed the theory that the virus accidentally leaked out of a virology lab in Wuhan, China, calling it a conspiracy theory.

Ah, those scientists and "experts," again.

Biden’s budget would turn America into a pizza dough republic . . . The president is borrowing to buy off a restive left with social programs. Joe Biden ran on a platform to Build Back Better — strengthen the economy and apply the dividend to social justice and equity issues — but it seems he’s given up on making America more competitive and adopted the Italian playbook — borrowing to buy off a restive left with social
programs. The Biden budget would boost government spending by about one-third but by its own admission and slow economic growth. The president wants to spend generously on infrastructure, industrial policies and education, but his social agenda would worsen the inefficiencies imposed by unions and burdensome regulation.

Justice Department Unveils Proposed Gun Restriction Rule . . . The Department of Justice (DOJ) unveiled on June 7 a proposed rule that would apply regulations for rifles to pistols equipped with certain stabilizing braces. The rule states that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives should determine on a case-by-case basis whether a particular gun, when configured with a stabilizing brace, “bears the
objective features of a firearm designed and intended to be fired from the shoulder and is thus subject to the NFA [National Firearms Act].” “The use of a purported ‘stabilizing brace’ cannot be a tool to circumvent the NFA (or the GCA) and the prohibition on the unregistered possession of ‘short-barreled rifles,'” the proposed rule states, with GCA serving as an acronym for the Gun Control Act of 1968. Stabilizing braces are used to bolster the stability and accuracy of guns. Epoch Times
Teacher Quits, Blasts Prep School For ‘Damaging’ Students With CRT Ideology . . . A high school English teacher at an elite Englewood, New Jersey, prep school submitted her resignation letter on Tuesday in response to the school’s embrace of critical race theory. In her resignation letter, submitted to the Foundation Against Intolerance and Racism (FAIR), Dana Stangel-Plowe slammed the Dwight-Englewood School for engaging in
activities such as segregating light skinned teachers by putting them in a “white caucus” group and threatening to replace white faculty members with people of color. Critical race theory holds that America is fundamentally racist. Daily Caller

Harry And Meghan Announce Birth Of Beautiful 'Half-Oppressed, Half-Privileged Baby' . . . Prince Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, have announced the arrival of a beautiful new baby. In the announcement, they described their new baby as "a beautiful, 7 pound, 11-ounce baby girl who is half-oppressed and half-privileged." "Mother and baby are doing well," said Prince Harry to reporters. "Even in these
early days, we are making sure to teach our child that she carries the blood of white colonial oppressors, as well as oppressed people of color. Expert critical theorists also expressed worry that the child may grow up fighting a constant internal battle between her oppressor self and her oppressed self.
Professor Tawdro Dingletook of Yale University said, "She will never fully belong on either side. This is why we need to bring back racial segregation--to keep this kind of thing from happening." Local non-college-educated electrician Joe Yoder disagrees. "Maybe Harry and Meghan are simply two precious human souls made in God's image, and their baby is too, and all this 'oppression' stuff is nonsense." It is unclear exactly where Mr. Yoder got his crazy ideas, but it's probably
safe to ignore them since he doesn't have a college degree. Babylon Bee
