#1 – Ketanji Brown Jackson Did Something So Stupid That Even Sonia Sotomayor Couldn’t Let It Slide — by Bonchie

There are only two viable explanations right here. The first is that Jackson is really this a lot of a legal light-weight and would not have the capability to perceive fundamental elements of her job as a Supreme Court justice, including having the ability to perceive what problem the court is ruling on. That’s definitely attainable given her historical past of jurisprudence and the very fact that she was positioned in her place because Biden pledged only to nominate a black girl for the job. 

The different option is that Jackson is so insanely partisan that she’d see the judiciary burned to the ground to prop up her left-wing ideology. Neither is sweet, contemplating she has a lifetime appointment.

#2 – Megyn Kelly Breaks Down Why She Thinks Pam Bondi’s ‘Days Are Numbered’

“Just look at the influencer thing. Just take a step back,” Kelly mentioned. “What kind of an attorney general would pretend she’s giving new information to some of the president’s most loyal advocates in the press? You know, buying ink by the barrel.”

“So either Pam Bondi knew she was about to embarrass some of his most loyal surrogates out there and did that willingly, or she didn’t take the time to make sure what was in those binders,” she added. “She was too lazy to actually figure out none of this is new. And yet she called a meeting with the influencers that included Kash Patel, the head of the FBI, and the sitting vice president.”

“So she’s either lazy and incompetent, or she willingly humiliated some of the president’s most loyal supporters. Neither one of those is good,” the host continued. “And that’s why, I’m sorry, but I’m going to predict her days are numbered as a member of the Trump administration. You know, Trump, he’s not dumb. But I just don’t think, I don’t think Trump created this.”

#3 – Portland Anti-ICE Crew Taunted Agents, Then Had a ‘Find Out’ Moment on July 4th — by Nick Arama

But the actions proceed in Portland; they have been occurring for nearly a month. They need to take some severe motion to deal with the state of affairs there. The anti-ICE crew has been camped across the road, disrupting the realm. There are residential neighbors close to the power who have had to deal with this, while town does nothing to stop it. 

There was more motion on Thursday, with the anti-ICE guys threatening the brokers, “Every one of you has a name,” and threatening to inform their neighbors about “every f****** one of you,” and “you’re f*****.” The brokers, bless them, apparently have developed a sense of humor in the face of all this madness, and reportedly performed the Bill Haley & the Comets track, “See You Later, Alligator,” at the anti-ICE crew as they drove out.

#4 – White House Issues Statement Following Pam Bondi, Dan Bongino Rumors Over Epstein Files — by Katie Jerkovich

The White House appeared to reply to rumors that either President Donald Trump’s Attorney General Pam Bondi or FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino was out following the Department of Justice’s announcement about no Epstein “client list.”

“President Trump has assembled a highly qualified and experienced law and order team dedicated to protecting Americans, holding criminals accountable, and delivering justice to victims,” a assertion on Friday from White House principal deputy press secretary Harrison Fields learn, per Semifor White House Correspondent Shelby Talcott.

White House assertion on in the present day’s FBI/DOJ Epstein information cycle:

“President Trump has assembled a extremely certified and skilled law and order crew devoted to defending Americans, holding criminals accountable, and delivering justice to victims. This work is being carried out…

“This work is being carried out seamlessly and with unity,” the assertion added. “Any attempt to sow division within this team is baseless and distracts from the real progress being made in restoring public safety and pursuing justice for all.”

#5 – Former NFL Star Jason Kelce Celebrates July 4th, Finds Out the Hard Way That Leftists hostility America — by Bob Hoge

This isn’t an endorsement of Jason Kelce—his wild antics aren’t for everybody, and as the brother of Kansas City Chiefs star Travis, or Taylor Swift’s boyfriend, as some know him—he’s certain to take some incoming. But is it actually truthful to smash him over saying he loves July 4^th, fireworks, and placing our variations apart for someday?

Not only is it not truthful, but it reveals how far the left has gone, and how a lot they hate the very nation that provides them the power to voice their views. Try that in Iran or North Korea, leftist keyboard warriors, and then inform us how it labored out for you.

When a outstanding determine can’t even voice his enthusiasm over the 4^th of July without the wailing and gnashing of enamel by progressives, it reveals you just how far they’ve drifted from common Americans who rely our blessings that we reside right here.
