EXCLUSIVE: Sen. Lee Looks To Codify Executive Order Restoring Opportunity In Workplace
Lee’s Restoring Equal Opportunity Act seeks to remove “disparate impact” on minorities in civil rights law, putting equality of opportunity rather than equality of outcome at its bedrock, according to bill text first obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation. I’m proud to introduce the Restoring Equal Opportunity Act alongside Senator Lee to bring merit, rather than DEI, back to our hiring and selection processes.” Trump issued his “Restoring Equality of Opportunity and Meritocracy” executive order April 23 in an effort to base employment decisions on “merit and skill … their employers’ needs, or the needs of their customers.” “As the Supreme Court put it, “the way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the basis of race,” the order says.

ICE agents condemn Democrats' efforts to expose their identities as calls for violence increase
His concerns come as calls to expose the identities of ICE officers continue to gain traction among Democrats, with DHS accusing one lawmaker of doxxing an officer. In a published statement, Carbajal said: "ICE’s claims of ‘doxxing’ and ‘violent mobs’ are attempts to deflect attention from their unjust tactics, distort the facts to support misleading narratives, and avoid accountability for their aggressive actions that caused injuries and left our community traumatized." Lara Trump addressed the push to expose ICE officers' identities on "Outnumbered" Thursday, saying the calls for transparency are rooted in wanting to perpetrate violence against the agents and their loved ones.

French pop band cancels North American tour over ‘very worrying’ US political climate
French pop band cancels North American tour over ‘very worrying’ US political climate French electro-pop band Yelle announced on Wednesday it was canceling a North American tour slated for the fall due to the “very worrying” political climate in the United States. The band cited concerns over immigration and freedom of speech as part of the reason they are canceling their North American tour dates — adding that since they are traveling as a family with their young child, they “need to feel safe.” “Today we have made the immensely difficult decision to cancel our North American tour. Aside from their worries about the U.S. political climate, the band also expressed concerns over the “great financial burden” the tour has placed upon them.

How ‘jet lag’ could be making you depressed — even if you didn’t travel anywhere
“We analyzed participants’ core body temperature, cortisol levels and melatonin levels, which we know play important roles in how our bodies manage the circadian rhythm — our 24-hour cycles — which regulate things like wakefulness and sleep,” said Joanne Carpenter of the University of Sydney. “This is the first time these key markers of the circadian rhythm have been combined with body temperature to study how circadian rhythms might be misaligned in people with mood disorders.” Carpenter’s team found that at least two of these circadian rhythm measures were out of sync in 23% of the mental health patients. She described “internal jet lag” as when the “clocks are not just delayed but not lining up with each other.” “While we do see teenagers sleeping later because of normal developmental shifts in the body clock to later timing across adolescence, what we are seeing here is a more extreme kind of circadian disruption,” Carpenter explained.

Gillis had a couple of jokes referencing Clark. The comedian said he and Clark are “whites from the Midwest who have nailed a bunch of 3s.” He also quipped, “When Caitlin Clark retires from the WNBA, she’s going to work at a Waffle House so she can continue doing what she loves most, fist fighting black women.” Comedians are people who take things in public life that contain a shred of truth and make jokes about them.

CBS News reporter says he got ‘PTSD’ from Trump assassination attempt because of crowd anger at media
CBS News reporter Scott MacFarlane says he got ‘PTSD’ from Trump assassination attempt because of crowd anger at media CBS News correspondent Scott MacFarlane wildly claims he was “diagnosed with PTSD” within 48 hours of President Trump’s assassination attempt at a rally last summer — because he was convinced the crowd was going to murder him and other members of the media. “When he jumped up triumphantly, it saved us.” MacFarlane further claimed “dozens” of people in the audience that day instantly turned on members of the media, calling out “You did this, this is your fault, you caused this, you killed him,” and speculating they were about to “beat us with their hands.” Host Chuck Todd, who said he was on a flight to the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee at the time of the assassination attempt, said the US has become “a tinderbox” in recent years. “The fact that we dodged that, you’re right, I don’t know what would have happened had the outcome been different.” MacFarlane, hinting he hasn’t quite fully shaken off the PTSD, added, “I can’t eliminate from my mind’s eye the look in their faces,” he said, narrowing his gaze and affecting a grave tone.

Algerian Journalist Living In Sweden Calls On Algerian Youth To “Colonize France”
According to Robert Spencer of Jihad Watch, Algerian journalist Yahya Abu Zakariya called on Algerian youth to “colonize France one day if they have the opportunity.” Zakariya also said they should remain there for 132 years, like the French did in Algeria. In this radical interview, Abu Zakariyah also proclaimed, “Algerians did not allow any foreigners to remain on their soil, and that they slaughtered the French through Jihad and resistance.” Among these “Swede” claims are that “Americans and French called Algerians ‘Barbarians’because they would devour anyone who came near the land.” He went on to make a brutal claim that illustrates the dangers of Muslim migration. Germany has a powerful economy, and it is one of the biggest supporters of Israel, providing it with weapons and money, only to atone for a crime that Hitler did not commit.” As if the barbaric killing of Westerners and Holocaust denial weren’t evil enough, this Muslim immigrant goes on to emphasize his jihad.

So I think it’s very exciting for the market and there’s nothing else like it.” Neumann and Rebekah, a cousin of actress Gwyneth Paltrow, purchased the two original units in 2017 for $27.5 million and later combined them. Since his departure from WeWork, Neumann has launched a new residential real estate venture called Flow, which has attracted major investor interest — most notably a $350 million investment from Andreessen Horowitz in exchange for equity tied to Neumann’s Sun Belt property holdings.

"Just a handful of chia seeds in your daily diet – 2 tablespoons in 6 ounces of water, with a slice of lemon – can improve the function of your digestive system," Gioffre told Fox News Digital. The mighty seeds are also packed with magnesium, which supports the brain and nervous system health; essential electrolytes like potassium, calcium and phosphorus; and omega-3 fatty acids that help lower inflammation, optimize brain function and can even help with depression and mood swings, Gioffre said.

New Yorkers struck with Labubu lunacy as obvious fakes of uber-popular Chinese monster dolls flood Canal Street
“I fell for the rush and I love the fact that I was able to go to the opposite of an outlet mall for it.” Real, who suffered through the auction-like process of buying off POP Mart’s website twice, now has six Labubus, “and I feel six times more joy in my life every day when I look at them sitting on my desk,” he said. But he said he needs to draw the line before buying more: “The addiction has gotten out of hand.” For shoppers in search of cheaper wares, many Canal Street vendors sell the dolls unboxed — alongside bogus Louis Vuitton bags and Prada sunglasses — for the low price of a single Alexander Hamilton, with their flaws and inconsistencies on full display. Nolan Petras, 7, of Georgia picked out an unboxed monster doll because he could “actually see what it is.” “I know if they have 9 teeth it’s a real one,” he said, pointing to the rainbow version he chose having the correct number of chompers.

Ex-NYPD boss Tom Donlon rips ‘morally corrupt’ Eric Adams: NYC mayor should ‘absolutely’ not seek re-election
Ex-NYPD boss Tom Donlon rips ‘morally corrupt’ Eric Adams: NYC mayor should ‘absolutely’ not seek re-election Mayor Eric Adams is a “morally corrupt” leader who appointed a band of “clowns” to run the NYPD and should have no place in City Hall now or in the future, former top cop Tom Donlon fumed to The Post Thursday. The attempted character assassination contrasted wildly with the praise Adams and City Hall officials heaped on Donlon when he took over the NYPD – and even after the feds raided Donlon’s home in a search for decades-old classified documents. Donlon, who showed no signs of mental decline in his interview with The Post, shot back at the claim, calling it “bulls—t.” His attorney, John Scola, added: “The NYPD and City Hall keep calling Commissioner Donlon’s complaint ‘baseless,’ yet they refuse to address the detailed allegations—rampant fraud, meritless promotions, death threats, and obstruction of justice.

Trump suffering from chronic condition after lower leg swelling sparks concern, White House reveals
Trump suffering from chronic condition after lower leg swelling sparks concern, White House reveals WASHINGTON — President Trump has been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, a blood circulation issue, after noticing “mild swelling in his lower legs,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt revealed Thursday. The doctor also wrote that bruising recently visible on Trump’s hand was “consistent with minor soft tissue irritation from frequent handshaking and the use of aspirin, which is taken as part of a standard cardiovascular prevention regimen.” Medical experts say common treatments for chronic venous insufficiency include wearing compression stockings and increasing exercise to improve blood flow. Dr. William Shutze, who treats afflicted patients at Texas Vascular Associates in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, said “it does increase his risk of blood clots during his travel for sure, since we already know he’s pooling blood — so that’s where the compression stockings are going to be very important.” The condition is caused by a person’s veins being unable to return blood toward their heart and is more common among sedentary people, though it also can occur in active patients, said Shutze, who serves on the executive board of the Society for Vascular Surgery.

(RELATED: ‘One Big Beautiful Bill’ Could Shutter Hundreds Of Planned Parenthood Clinics) Currently, the funds generated through the Obamacare provision total $25 million, with at least $2.5 million to be allocated annually for grants to various abortion funds within the state to pay for women’s abortion-related expenses, NPR reported. We’re looking for California, Illinois, New York, those bigger states that are sitting on potentially hundreds of millions of dollars to take what we’ve done here in Maryland and implement it there.” The number of abortions in the U.S. has continued to rise since the overturning of Roe v. Wade, driven in part by a sharp increase in telemedicine access, especially in states with near-total bans on the procedure, a June report by the Society of Family Planning found.

Democrat State Lawmaker Says Trump Turning U.S. into 'Fascist Police State' by Holding Murderers and Pedophiles in Detention Facilities
A Democrat state senator from California is rejecting migrant detention facilities — holding some of the worst of the worst criminals convicted of murder, rape, and pedophilia — as “prison gulags,” bizarrely asserting that President Donald Trump is trying to establish a “fascist police state.” “Trump is building a fascist police state, with Congress now giving him a massive slush fund to dramatically expand the ICE secret police and to build more private prison gulags, such as ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ and the CECOT in El Salvador,” state Sen. Scott Wiener wrote upon rumors of Attorney General Pam Bondi announcing plans to reopen Alcatraz prison, off the coast of San Francisco. Further, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) explained that many of the illegal aliens who are categorized as “non-criminals” are “terrorists, human rights abusers, gang members and more — they just don’t have a rap sheet in the U.S.” Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin recently announced that officials have arrested nearly 600 known or suspected terrorists within the U.S. as well as “2,700 members of Tren de Aragua, a vicious gang that kills rapes and maims Americans for sport.” “That is who these politicians are protecting. A Guatemalan migrant by the name of Luis Donaldo Corado is also at the facility and has a criminal history that includes “burglary of an occupied dwelling, forced entry, and voyeurism.” Eddy Lopez Jemot, hailing from Cuba, has a criminal history that includes the following: “Arson, assault — arrested for cutting the throat of an elderly woman in Key Largo, FL and lighting her home on fire to conceal the evidence.” Notably, Jemot also threatened to kill another woman by “cutting off her head.” Yet, the establishment media continue to defend these individuals.

Court Considers Claim of Montgomery County (Md.) Teachers Transferred for Pro-Palestinian Speech Following Oct. 7, 2023
The Court has held that such retaliation violates the First Amendment if - the speech is on a matter of public concern, Connick v. Myers (1983), and - the speech is not said by the employee as part of the employee's job duties, Garcetti v. Ceballos (2006), and - the damage caused by the speech to the efficiency of the government agency's operation does not outweigh the value of the speech to the employee and the public, Pickering v. Bd. But the court held otherwise as to "Plaintiff El-Haggan's email signature containing the slogan, 'From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free'": The amended complaint … plausibly alleges that Plaintiff El-Haggan engaged in this speech as a private citizen. But there are no facts before the Court regarding the other factors that the Court considers when conducting the Pickering balance, such as whether Plaintiff El-Haggan's speech impaired the maintenance of discipline by supervisors; damaged close personal relationships; impeded the performance of her duties; interfered with the operation of the school; undermined the mission of the school; and/or abused the authority and public accountability that her role entailed.

Side-hustling mamas are paying for lavish vacations, weddings by selling their breast milk — to thirsty bodybuilders and babies in need
Most social media inquiries from bodybuilders seeking milk are as benign as, “I’m a male looking for a regular fresh supply of breast milk.” However, others come with a thinly-veiled hint of inappropriateness, like, “Seeking open-minded mom to help me with breast milk long term … willing to travel for the right person.” It’s a virtual minefield through which entrepreneurial moms must carefully tiptoe. “The benefits of breast milk are being found in the lab,” the authors explained, “not in drinking a bottle ordered online from an expressing mom.” But Nicole Howard says breast milk bought online is definitely benefiting her cradle-sized clients. “I’ve sold over 7,000 ounces in the past 10 months.” The West Coaster, whose breast milk comes with NICU certification — verifying its good quality — spends more than half of each day eating, pumping, freezing, storing, advertising and selling her excess supply to a cross-country customer base, spanning from California to New York City.

Europe is committing economic suicide with climate change cult
Because the EU matters little in global emissions and because it has already cut emissions significantly, it will only reduce global emissions through the 21st century by a small 3%. Thus not only is the current EU climate policy going to be unable to actually nudge the global thermometer, it is also likely to end in a huge backlash, while the developing world’s emissions will continue, driven by a legitimate quest for prosperity. A far smarter, more sensible approach — also for the US — would be to bankroll innovation: research and development of green energy approaches including advanced nuclear, carbon capture and next-gen renewables that are cheaper than current fossil fuels and don’t end when the wind stops or the sun sets.

EXCLUSIVE: Joni Ernst Unveils Amendment To Purge CCP From US Defense Industrial Base
Introduced by Iowa Republican Sen. Joni Ernst, the Assessment Of Foreign Ownership Contractors amendment gives DOD one year to formalize its vetting policies for defense contractors, while also forcing the Secretary of Defense to vet contractors for “membership, affiliation, or participation” in a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) influence and intelligence service called the United Front Work Department (UFWD). Furthermore, DOD’s failure to comply with the amendment’s deadline automatically results in the cancellation of “all contracts and subcontracts with contractors and subcontracts not assessed for risks related to foreign ownership, control, or influence.” Ernst sent a letter to Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth in March 2025 calling on DOD to kill contracts with U.S. defense contractor S&L Aerospace Metals LLC, citing a February DCNF investigation revealing Chinese government and state media reports that identified the firm’s owner as an official within multiple UFWD agencies. In June, the House Select Committee on the CCP cited the DCNF’s February S&L investigation within a letter sent to Hegseth calling on DOD to fully implement the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) rule mandated by Section 847 of the 2020 NDAA, which requires DOD to thoroughly review U.S. defense contractors and subcontractors to determine the “true individuals or entities who ultimately own or control a business,” according to the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA).

Senate GOP Blocks Dem Effort To Release Epstein Files
Republican Oklahoma Sen. Markwayne Mullin objected on behalf of Senate Republicans, arguing Gallego’s resolution was “political theater.” (RELATED: Trump Compares ‘Jeffrey Epstein Hoax’ To Russiagate, Blasts ‘Past’ Supporters) “It’s so obvious that the Democrats are just using this for a political football,” Mullin said. “I urge my colleagues to join me in demanding the Justice Department release the Epstein files.” Gallego did not offer a similar resolution under former President Joe Biden who did not attempt to release additional materials related to Epstein in the federal government’s possession. His measure states in part: “Expressing the sense of the Senate that the Department of Justice should release appropriate, non-sensitive materials related to the investigation of Jeffery Epstein to restore public trust, affirm institutional accountability, and prevent the politicization of justice.” All content created by the Daily Caller News Foundation, an independent and nonpartisan newswire service, is available without charge to any legitimate news publisher that can provide a large audience.

ICE mask debate heats up as doxxing and agent assaults surge
Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R- Tenn., last month introduced the Protecting Law Enforcement from Doxxing Act, which would make doxxing federal agents a serious crime, carrying up to five years in prison and fines. MASSACHUSETTS BILL WOULD FORCE ICE AGENTS TO UNMASK Blackburn introduced the legislation after Nashville Mayor Freddie O’Connell, a Democrat, faced backlash for releasing a public report naming federal officers, which ultimately resulted in doxxing accusations. ICE agents were attacked and had rocks thrown at their moving vehicles during a raid on a marijuana farm last week, while ICE agents have also come under attack outside an ICE detention facility in Portland.

The Senate Was Right To Defund NPR and PBS
The Senate has voted to cancel $1.1 billion in public funding for NPR and PBS, a move described as "an unusual surrender of congressional spending power" by The New York Times, though the only thing particularly unusual here is the federal government deciding not to spend money. NPR CEO Katherine Maher argues rural America often has no other possible source of news or connection to the outside world EXCEPT through PBS and NPR: "Large rural communities, large tribal communities" don't have "a lot of other options. This Week on Free Media I'm joined by Amber Duke to discuss Andrew Cuomo's shameless quest for New York City's mayor's office, Tucker Carlson's conviction that Jeffrey Epstein was an intelligence asset, Andrew Schulz's frustrations with Trump, and much more.

Seattle Property Owners Challenge Program That Charges 'Affordable Housing' Fees for Building New Homes
Seattle Property Owners Challenge Program That Charges 'Affordable Housing' Fees for Building New Homes A new lawsuit alleges that the city's Mandatory Housing Affordability program unconstitutionally penalizes property owners just for trying to build housing. But its Mandatory Housing Affordability (MHA) program would require them either to make two of their new units rent-restricted affordable housing or otherwise pay hefty affordable housing fees—roughly $36,000 in the Volkers' case and $126,000 in Vert's. The Volkers and Vert assert that because their construction of new housing does not make housing less affordable (in their complaint, they contend the additional supply makes housing more affordable), the city's MHA mandates fail the Nollan-Dolan test.

Trump Vows To Release Key Intel On Hillary Clinton, Russia Collusion Hoax
The new probe will reportedly investigate whether the FBI and intelligence community weaponized false claims of Russian collusion and mishandled former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s email controversy to damage Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and subsequent presidency, the outlet reported. (RELATED: REPORT: Brennan And Comey Under Criminal Investigation Over Trump-Russia Probe) Another document concerns Special Counsel John Durham’s report titled the “Clinton Plan Intelligence,” which reportedly reveals that U.S. intelligence believed Clinton approved a plan in 2016 to fabricate a Trump-Russia collusion narrative, according to Just the News. Moreover, Trump recently told the Daily Caller that he is “very satisfied” with the FBI’s investigation into the assassination attempt against him in Butler, Pennsylvania, despite previously describing certain aspects of the case as “a little bit strange.” All content created by the Daily Caller News Foundation, an independent and nonpartisan newswire service, is available without charge to any legitimate news publisher that can provide a large audience.

Report: Pam Bondi to Visit Alcatraz and Possibly Announce Reopening; Pelosi Blasts as 'Stupidest Initiative Yet'
According to ABC 7 News, they “are expected to announce plans to reopen the federal penitentiary.” Trump made the call to rebuild and reopen Alcatraz back in May, writing in a Truth Social post, “REBUILD, AND OPEN ALCATRAZ!” “For too long, America has been plagued by vicious, violent, and repeat Criminal Offenders, the dregs of society, who will never contribute anything other than Misery and Suffering,” Trump said. Trump then directed the Bureau of Prisons, together with the Department of Justice, FBI, and Homeland Security, to “reopen a substantially enlarged and rebuilt ALCATRAZ, to house America’s most ruthless and violent Offenders.” “We will no longer be held hostage to criminals, thugs, and Judges that are afraid to do their job and allow us to remove criminals, who came into our Country illegally,” Trump said, adding that the reopening of the facility would stand as a shining “symbol of Law, Order, and JUSTICE.” Longtime Democrat politician Rep. Nancy Pelosi has already deemed the idea the “the Trump Administration’s stupidest initiative yet.” “It should concern us all that clearly the only intellectual resources the Administration has drawn upon for this foolish notion are decades-old fictional Hollywood movies,” she stated. California State Sen. Scott Wiener, who represents all of San Francisco and more, asserted that “Trump is building a fascist police state,” deeming facilities such as Alligator Alcatraz — housing some of the most dangerous illegal migrants with crimes including slitting an elderly woman’s throat — as “prison gulags.” RELATED — We NEED Alligator Alcatraz!

‘Slapping Fannies & Killing Grannies’: Curtis Silwa Says Cuomo Should Drop Out, Not Him
Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani of New York City secured the Democratic nomination in the June 24 primary, beating out Cuomo and several other challengers while running on a far-left platform that included declaring Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would be arrested if he came to New York City and defending the boycott, divest and sanction movement (BDS).
