JERRY NEWCOMBE — Is God making a comeback in some of the public schools of Texas? A news item last week gives a glimmer of hope that it may be so. 60 years ago this summer, the Supreme Court effectively banished God from the public schools. They did this in the first anti-school prayer case.... (more)

BREITBART — Thursday, during an appearance on Hugh Hewitt’s nationally syndicated radio show, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) criticized President Joe Biden’s student loan forgiveness proposal. The Florida governor said not only was it a policy “disaster” in that it threatened to make economic problems worse, but he predicted it would be a political “disaster” because of the public’s reaction....

NEWSMAX — A former president's right under the Presidential Records Act trumps the statutes the FBI cited to justify the Mar-a-Lago search, David Rivkin Jr. and Lee Casey argued in an opinion piece in The Wall Street Journal on Tuesday. The two constitutional lawyers, who served at the Department of Justice and the White House Counsel's Office in the Reagan and George H.W. Bush administrations, stressed that the warrant used to search former President Donald Trump's residence suggests that ''the FBI had no legally valid cause for the raid.''... (more)

JOSEPH FARAH — The Twitter board is, indeed, covering up its "extreme, egregious deficiencies," and executives have no idea how many bots are actually on the platform, claims a whistleblower. So, Elon Musk’s suspicions are right after all. But it's much bigger than that. Hear me out. Twitter is little more than a disinformation front posing as an honest, consumer-driven social media site.... (more)

MICHELLE MALKIN — Here's the thing about Mitch McConnell and Elaine Chao. The granddaddy of Republican Beltway barnacles has inhabited the nation's capital in one form or another since 1968, when he worked as a Senate legislative aide. His wife, the daughter of a Beijing-kowtowing shipping mogul, snagged her first job in 1983 as a White House fellow under the Reagan administration. For a half-century, this Swamp duo has done out in the great wide open what Swamp things do: Grift. Rinse. Repeat.... (more)

FOX NEWS — California Highway Patrol (CHP) has released photos and videos recorded on the night of a May 28 crash involving Paul Pelosi, the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who pleaded guilty to a DUI charge earlier Tuesday. The long-awaited video shows Pelosi's alleged slurred speech and what police previously described as "objective" signs of intoxication, as well as police asking him to perform field sobriety tests....

GATEWAY PUNDIT — Dr. Jill tested positive for Covid AGAIN on Wednesday in a ‘rebound’ case after taking Paxlovid earlier this month. “After testing negative on Tuesday, just now, the First Lady has tested positive for Covid-19 by antigen testing. This represents a “rebound” positivity,” a statement from Jill Biden’s Deputy Communications Director said.... (more)

BOB UNRUH — Fox News commentator Tucker Carlson has "crucified" "Lord Fauci," Joe Biden's chief of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, but better known as the know-it-all bureaucrat who claimed he was "science" on the issue of COVID-19. That's according to a report from Revolver.... (more)

MARGOT CLEVELAND — Last week’s raid on Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home represented the culmination of a criminal investigation pushed by a partisan bureaucrat who called January 6, 2021, the “absolute worst” day of his life. And while since last Monday, the country has focused on the FBI’s raid of Trump’s personal residence, seeing that as the crossing of the Rubicon, the die was cast this spring when the DOJ went to the grand jury about Trump’s presidential records....

JOHN SOLOMON — White House Deputy Counsel Jonathan Su was a busy man, at least when it came to carrying out President Joe Biden's wish to eliminate former President Donald Trump's claims that materials and testimony from his presidency were covered by executive privilege.... (more)

CLIFF KINCAID — Although Republican Mitt Romney lost an easily winnable election in 2012, many conservative commentators and analysts believed that Romney would win no matter what Obama threw at him. These same commentators predicted Donald J. Trump would lose in 2016.... (more)

PETER LEMISKA — Hate is a destructive emotion that can rob us of our compassion, our dignity, and even our common sense. For six years now, Democrats have been consumed with an overpowering hatred of a man who left public office nearly two years ago. It’s the same man who gave our country energy independence, secure borders, and a strong economy with low inflation.... (more)

JOHN SOLOMON — Long before it professed no prior knowledge of the raid on Donald Trump's estate, the Biden White House worked directly with the Justice Department and National Archives to instigate the criminal probe into alleged mishandling of documents, allowing the FBI to review evidence retrieved from Mar-a-Lago this spring and eliminating the 45th president's claims to executive privilege, according to contemporaneous government documents reviewed by Just the News....

RED STATE — Just in case you needed yet another reason not to take the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) seriously, this story should suffice. The agency released a study on Friday recommending that people wear face masks, among other measures, to avoid catching monkeypox. The problem? The precautions the CDC suggested do not line up with what the data shows about the spread of the illness.... (more)

ROBERT SPENCER — Former Vice President Mike Pence confirmed on Wednesday that he has about as much chance of being the Republican nominee for president in 2024 as Nancy Pelosi has of joining the Radio City Rockettes. Demonstrating a tone-deafness of Olympian proportions, Pence had harsh words for the Republicans who are appalled at how the FBI has become a tool of the partisan vendetta of Old Joe Biden and Merrick Garland against Donald Trump. In Pence’s world, the stout-hearted G-Men are still of unquestionable integrity, square-jawed, patriotic, non-partisan, and ever-vigilant for truth, justice, and the American way. It hasn’t been that way for a long time if it ever was, but Mike hasn’t noticed.... (more)

ART MOORE — Dr. Robert Malone, a leading critic of the COVID-19 vaccines and an inventor of the mRNA technology platform on which they are based, filed a $50 million defamation lawsuit against the Washington Post on Friday for accusing him of spreading "dangerous lies" and "leading his followers on a journey to illness, suffering and possible death."...

ART MOORE — A federal judge has temporarily halted the discharge of hundreds of Marines who were denied religious exemptions from the military's requirement that they receive the experimental COVID-19 vaccine shots, which have not prevented infection and the spread of the virus as promised. U.S. District Judge Steve Merryday, a George H.W. Bush appointee, ruled Thursday that the Marine Corps failed to adhere to the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, the Epoch Times reported.... (more)

ART MOORE — The Justice Department may have pressured the FBI to raid Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate at the instruction of the Biden administration, a former bureau special agent said. Maureen O'Connell, an FBI specialist in forensics, gangs and cartel-level narcotics from 1991 and 2016, said the DOJ was "trying to push" the FBI "to do this warrant."... (more)

SIENA HOEFLING — [Editor's note: In view of the Supreme Court's recent ruling that Roe v. Wade never was sound constitutional law, we thought it timely to revisit an April 2017 article by Siena Hoefling that poignantly made the same point—both in writing and with a masterful video featuring the song "Prayer of the Children," sung by Three Dog Night.]...

CLIFF KINCAID — Professor Jonathan Turley was on Fox saying he had supported the confirmation of Merrick Garland as Attorney General but now says he is disappointed in Garland’s political pursuit of Trump. Turley still doesn’t get it. Garland is an agent of Barack Hussein Obama, who approved Hillary’s plan to launch the FBI’s “Crossfire Hurricane” investigation of Trump.... (more)

CNBC — Concerns are mounting that the window of opportunity for containing the escalating monkeypox outbreak may be closing, with vaccine shortages leaving some at-risk groups waiting weeks to get jabbed. Health professionals have warned that a failure to get the outbreak under control could see it spill over into other populations or species.... (more)

DENNIS PRAGER — Fewer young Americans affiliate with any organized religion than ever before in American history. This means, therefore, that the children—and certainly the grandchildren—of millions of faithful Christians have abandoned Christianity. The same holds true for Jews, but that decline began somewhat earlier. Until the 20th century, nearly all Jews were religious (which nearly always meant Orthodox). Today about 15 percent of Jews are Orthodox, while most Conservative and Reform Jews have the same values as the secular Left, and very few of their children attend synagogue.... (more)
