Americans not supporting Biden's anti fossil fuel agenda
Tipp Insights: Joe Biden's presidency has foundered as gasoline prices have soared, with readings in numerous polls showing record or near-record low favorability. Biden's climate change policies, which many blame for the sudden surge in fuel costs, are now highly unpopular among average Americans, a new I&I/TIPP Poll shows. ... The answer that came back loud and clear will not be comforting to either President Biden or his Democratic Party advisers: Just 32% of those answering the poll, which has a margin of error of +/-2.5 percentage points, said they support Biden's climate ... read more

Antifa loses confrontation with biker gang
Post Millenial: An Antifa direct action broke out in Oregon on Saturday, where members of the far-left violent extremist movement suffered a humiliating defeat after the group was confronted by a group of women and bikers protecting a Salem bar hosting a family barbecue event. The confrontation appears to have now ignited a feud between Antifa and members of various Oregon motorcycle clubs. Antifa had tried to shut down the Honky Tonk bar in Salem, Ore. In a live stream footage, a group of bikers can be seen approaching a group of Antifa that were gathered across the street from... read more

The failure of the woke narrative
Stephen L. Miller: Two dimensions collided last week, the real world and woke Twitter. Khiara Bridges, a law professor at UC Berkeley, found out how using woke terminology usually reserved for a private classroom or an online mob works in an open forum where you can’t simply shut students down or press the “block” button. When asked by Senator John Cornyn whether she believes a baby has value even a day before birth, she responded, “I believe a person with the capacity for pregnancy has value.” When Cornyn responded, “No, I’m talking about the baby,” she reiterated, “I’m talking ... read more

The down side of wind power
Wall Street Journal: California transplants who moved to Texas no doubt thought they had escaped electric power outages. Think again. Texans this week were told to crank up their thermostats amid a brutal heat wave to avoid rolling blackouts. Some ultimatum: Swelter, or bake without power. Temperatures in Texas climbed into the triple digits this week but this isn’t unusual. The problem is that wind power faltered, as it often does during hot spells. Wind accounts for about 30% of Texas’s power supply, but unlike fossil-fuel powered generators, wind can’t provide power when it d... read more

US response to hypersonic weapons
AP: The U.S. will spend $1.3 billion to develop advanced satellites that will be able to better track hypersonic missile threats, the Pentagon said Monday, announcing two new contracts that will put the detection and tracking systems in orbit by 2025. Derek Tournear, director of the Space Development Agency, said the contracts will provide 28 satellites, as the U.S. moves to greatly expand and enhance its ability to counter increasing threats from Russia and China. Both countries have been making strides in their development of hypersonic missiles, which are more difficult to tr... read more

Business Insider: Ukrainian authorities published audio they say shows a Russian soldier complaining to his partner that he had been sent "to slaughter" during Moscow's invasion of Ukraine. The Security Service of Ukraine shared audio of a conversation between a man and woman on Friday, and said it was a conversation between an "occupier" and his wife. "Here, you know, they just send us to slaughter. It's not a smart way at all," the man's voice says in the audio. It is not clear where in Ukraine the man was, or when the conversation took place.

Putin feeling the pain of sanctions
Newsmax: Russian President Vladimir Putin admitted Monday that Western sanctions on his country are causing "colossal" high-tech issues in Russia's high-tech industry, the Daily Mail reports. Putin said that it was impossible to cut Russia off from the rest of the world, and that sanctions imposed by Western countries would not turn the clock back on Russia's development. Since invading Ukraine on Feb. 24, Russia has been hit with a barrage of Western sanctions, designed to isolate it from the global economy, that have deprived it of access to goods, including commercial electro... read more

Europe begs for gas supplies
Daily Caller: European leaders traveled to authoritarian countries Monday in search of new energy deals as Russia’s threats to cut off gas exports grow more extreme.

The neglected common ground on abortion
Abortion is one of the most polarizing issues in American politics, made even more toxic by the Supreme Court’s decision to overrule Roe v. Wade. It doesn’t need to be. Pro-life and pro-choice people should be able to agree on policies that would actually reduce the abortion rate. To accomplish that, though, opponents of abortion would have to bring themselves to vote for, and even run for office as, Democrats. I explain in a new column at The Hill, here. read more

Joe Biden’s Secret War in Ukraine
[image: undefined] The White House keeps insisting that it will not directly involve American soldiers in the war in Ukraine, but it keeps taking steps that will inevitably lead to a large-scale open combat role for the US against Russia. Among the most recent moves to increase the pressure on the Kremlin, Biden revealed at a NATO summit meeting in Madrid on June 29th that the US will establish a permanent headquarters in Poland for the Fifth Army Corps, maintain an additional rotational brigade of thousands of troops in Romania and bolster other deployments in the Baltic states.

By making China the enemy, NATO is threatening world peace
By Jonathan Cook * NATO’s new posture towards Beijing brings into question its whole claim to be a ‘defensive’ alliance* As the saying goes, if you only have a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. The West has the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (Nato), a self-declared “defensive” military alliance – so any country that refuses its dictates must, by definition, be an offensive military threat.
