Biden Admin Gives Millions to Soros-Backed Groups Teaching About ‘Toxic Masculinity’ to Puerto Ricans
According to the Washington Free Beacon, Biden’s Department of Justice (DOJ) awarded the grant to Taller Salud, a group that describes itself as a “feminist, culturally specific nonprofit organization” based out of Puerto Rico.
The funds came from the DOJ’s Community-Based Violence Intervention and Prevention Initiative, which seeks to fund non-police alternatives to solving crime.
Taller Salud has been bankrolled by the far-left billionaire George Soros through his Open Society Foundations.
The $2 million handout from the DOJ, which was awarded in October of last year, will be used by Taller Salud in order to spread its “community violence intervention program,” which targets Puerto Rican men aged 15 to 30.
The initiative features “public education campaigns” about “structural racism and toxic masculinities.”

Glenn: Is THIS PROOF Biden LIED about meeting Hunter’s business partners?
Here Are All The People Who Have Corroborated Biden Family Corruption
The corporate media’s blackout on the ongoing Biden corruption investigation continued this week despite the publication of an unclassified document detailing President Joe Biden’s alleged involvement in an international bribery scheme.
The propaganda press didn’t just ignore Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley’s sharing of the bombshell FD-1023 and the FBI’s ongoing attempts to stonewall its debut. Some outlets actually went out of their way to downplay the years of evidence accumulated in the Biden bribery investigation.
The New York Times, which wasted no paper on the FD-1023’s publication on Thursday, alleged in a Sunday article that the IRS whistleblowers who testified to the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability last week were the products of a well-crafted campaign by Grassley’s allies.

Hunter Biden’s gallery sold first son’s artwork to major Dem donor appointed to prestigious commission: Report
Documents obtained by Business Insider showed that the buyer is Elizabeth Hirsh Naftali, a real estate investor from Los Angeles.
President Biden appointed Hirsh Naftali to the Commission for the Preservation of America’s Heritage Abroad in July 2022 – eight months after the first son’s first art opening.
It’s not clear, however, whether her purchase came before or after the appointment.
Naftali is a prominent Democratic donor, having donated more than $200,000 to the Biden Victory Fund during the 2020 election cycle and over $30,000 to the Democratic National Committee this year.
She also maxed out to the Biden campaign with two $3,300 donations in April of this year.
Protesters surround a Moms for Liberty booth in Washington State

Five ways Ayn Rand predicted America’s political crises, from parents spurned to the rise of cancel culture
Many foundational pillars of society in the United States appear to be crumbling right now before our eyes, weakened by an erosive array of social, economic and political forces.
The deterioration of traditional cultural norms and the social upheaval that’s followed — from the living room to classroom the boardroom — is no surprise to Ayn Rand scholars.
The celebrated Russian-born American author and philosopher predicted with haunting accuracy many of the nation’s current crises.
Among her observations: Government would encroach on parental rights, stifle academic and scientific research, and fuel a dangerous mentality of victimhood.
“She understood that history is moved by ideas and if you have rotten ideas you have rotten outcomes,” Yaron Brook, chairman of the California-based Ayn Rand institute, told Fox News Digital.
Feds Have a Plan to Block the Sun — What Are the Risks?
SRM is a form of geoengineering that aims to cool off the Earth by reflecting sunlight back into space.
The controversial strategy comes with significant risks, but that didn’t stop the White House from moving forward with a research plan for “solar and other rapid climate interventions.”
The congressionally mandated research plan is focused on atmospheric-based approaches, such as SAI and MCB, as opposed to space-based approaches, which include mirrors in space or white roofs and other local-scale measures to increase surface reflectance.
SAI involves injecting reflective aerosol particles into the stratosphere, where they reflect sunlight away from the Earth.
On this day in history, July 25, 1976, NASA captures ‘Face on Mars’ photo
A photo from Mars taken by NASA’s Viking 1 spacecraft left people perplexed and wondering about the possibility of extraterrestrial life on this day in history, July 25, 1976.
Dubbed the “Face on Mars,” the image appeared to show a carving of eyes, nose and a mouth in the Martian region of Cydonia.
“NASA’s Viking 1 spacecraft was circling the planet, snapping photos of possible landing sites for its sister ship Viking 2, when it spotted the shadowy likeness of a human face,” said NASA’s website.
Retired Georgia Pastor Charged for the 1975 Kidnapping and Murder of an 8-Year-Old Girl
A former pastor was arrested for the decades-old cold-case murder of an 8-year-old girl in Pennsylvania after he admitted to abducting and killing the young girl while she was on her way to Bible camp, officials said.
David Zandstra, 83, allegedly pulled up alongside Gretchen Harrington in his green station wagon on Aug. 15, 1975, and offered her a ride, according to the Delaware County District Attorney’s Office.
The wicked pastor told investigators that he took the girl to a secluded spot, where he told her to take off her clothes, then beat her to death when she refused.
The pastor, who was known to the family, said he drove back to church after the killing.

Russian Lawmakers Approve Bill Raising Maximum Age For Mandatory Military Service To 30
Russian parliament’s lower chamber, the State Duma, on July 25 approved the final reading of a bill raising the maximum age for mandatory one-year military service for men to 30 from 27.
Lawmaker Andrei Kartapolov said during the presentation of the bill for debate that was intended as a plan for “a big war” and “general mobilization.”
After the bill is approved by the parliament’s upper chamber, the Federation Council, and signed into law by President Vladimir Putin, Russian men between 18 and 30 years of age will be required to put in one year of mandatory military service as of January 1, 2024.
Taliban visits Indonesia in attempt to gain global recognition
KUALA LUMPUR — A midlevel Taliban delegation visited Indonesia this month “to improve relations” between Afghanistan and the world’s most populous Muslim nation, a Taliban source told Nikkei Asia.
The visit, said analysts, was an attempt by the Taliban to gain support for international recognition and court foreign investment in Afghanistan to shore up its ailing economy, which is among the poorest in the world.
“This is a middle-level delegation visiting Indonesia and Malaysia, and it is trying to improve relations between Afghanistan and the two Islamic countries,” said the source, adding that the visit occurred more than a week ago.
Indonesian Foreign Ministry spokesman Teuku Faizasyah confirmed that the Taliban were in Jakarta for “internal activities with their mission.” They did not meet with the foreign ministry, Faizasyah told Nikkei Asia.

Discovery of Radioactive Fish Near Fukushima Reignites Concerns Over Plan to Dump Contaminated Wastewater
With the Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) planning to begin a release of 1.3 million tons of treated wastewater from the former Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Japan next month, reports of radioactive fish in the area have raised alarm in recent years — and new reporting on July 23 revealed that the problem is far from mitigated, prompting questions about how dangerous the company’s plan will be for the public.
The plant operator, known as TEPCO, analyzed a black rockfish in May that was found to contain levels of radioactive cesium that were 180 times over Japan’s regulatory limit, The Guardian reported.
The fish was caught near drainage outlets at the plant, where three nuclear reactors melted down in March 2011 during a tsunami.
Rainwater from the areas surrounding the reactors flows into the area where the fish was caught.
The high level of cesium — which, depending on the level of exposure, can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, bleeding, coma and death in people who eat contaminated food — was discovered as TEPCO prepares to begin the discharge of treated wastewater which has been used to cool fuel from the melted reactors.
The wastewater has been mixed with rainwater and groundwater since the tsunami.

Father urges church to step in as religious school teaches kids they can be born into wrong body
The unidentified parent appealed to the Rev. Nigel Genders after claiming the unnamed Church of England school in Norfolk, England, is utilizing materials that teach children as young as 7 that they can be born in the wrong body, according to the London-based Christian Legal Centre (CLC), which is aiding his legal battle, according to the Christian Post.
The materials also reportedly encouraged young students to participate in simulated same-sex weddings.
The parent also reportedly asked the Church of England to step in and explain why such a curriculum was being promoted at a Church of England school.
Genders reportedly responded to the parent’s complaint by claiming that schools are allowed to make up their own minds about sex education lessons, and he punted the parent back to the school with regard to his grievance.
Russian aircraft damages US drone flying over Syria
“On 23 July, 2023 at 12:23 a.m. (EST) Russian fighter aircraft flew dangerously close to a U.S. MQ-9 drone on a defeat-ISIS mission, harassing the MQ-9 and deploying flares from a position directly overhead, with only a few meters of separation between aircraft,” said Lt Gen Alexus Grynkewich, Commander, 9th AF and Combined Forces Air Component. “One of the Russian flares struck the U.S. MQ-9, severely damaging its propeller. Fortunately, the MQ-9 crew was able to maintain flight and safely recover the aircraft to its home base.”
Russian fighter jets similarly harassed U.S. drones over Syria earlier this month in a pair of incidents that spanned 24 hours.
On July 6, Russian SU-35 fighters flew dangerously close to and deployed flares near several U.S. drones. A video of the incident was released the day after the U.S. military released similar footage on Wednesday, July 5.
Dramatic Israeli judicial reform protests continue
Protests against Israel’s judicial reform continued late into the night on Monday and Tuesday morning, after the passage of the first part of the judicial reform plan.

China’s Foreign Minister ousted after one-month absence
China on Tuesday replaced its foreign minister, Qin Gang, with his predecessor, Communist Party foreign affairs chief Wang Yi, less than seven months after he was appointed to the post.
Qin was last publicly seen June 25, after he met in Beijing with officials from Sri Lanka, Vietnam and Russia. His absence has been without explanation.
A career diplomat and ally of Chinese leader Xi Jinping, Qin assumed the role of foreign minister in December after briefly serving as the ambassador to the United States.
China’s rubber-stamp parliament voted Tuesday on the decision to replace Qin, CNN reported, citing Chinese state media.
Russia bans sex change and transgender marriages
The bill, which was overwhelmingly approved by both chambers of parliament, prohibits any “medical interventions aimed at changing the sex of a person,” as well as changing one’s gender in official documents and public records.
Medical intervention to cure congenital abnormalities will be the lone exception.
It also nullifies marriages when one of the partners has “changed gender” and prohibits transgender people from becoming foster or adoptive parents.
The prohibition is supposed to be the result of the Kremlin’s crusade to safeguard the country’s “traditional values.” Lawmakers believe the legislation is intended to protect Russia from “Western anti-family ideology,” with some calling gender transitioning “pure satanism.”
China and Russia train together to sink US submarines
These exercises are designed to do more than send a message to the U.S. and its allies over Taiwan.
They are designed to enable better combat cooperation between China and Russia in war.
Underlining that point, many of the forces deployed were anti-submarine warfare specialists in nature.
Their number included three Russian anti-submarine warships and the PLA’s Z-20 anti-submarine helicopter.
Though they have not said so, Russia and the PLA may have also deployed submarines for the exercise.
Still, the submarine point is the key.
Beijing is well aware that the U.S. retains a key, though diminishing, advantage in undersea warfare. The PLA has significantly strengthened its surface warfare forces in recent years, churning out excellent warships such as the Type-055 air defense destroyer.

Lawmakers: IRS dodging oversight after destroying 30 million records
Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith, R-Mo., and Oversight Subcommittee Chairman David Schweikert, R-Ariz., sent a letter to IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel demanding he comply with the documentation request.
They argue the agency has “willfully ignored” their request, which dates back to last year.
The inquiry comes after a Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration report showing that the IRS destroyed roughly 30 million taxpayer documents in 2021.
Critics say the agency made a mistake and that taxpayers may have needed those files if they are audited in the future.
Matt Gaetz moves to end birthright citizenship to stop ‘abuse’ in immigration system
The “End Birthright Citizenship Fraud Act” would amend the interpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment in the Immigration and Nationality Act to what a growing number of conservatives consider to be its “original intent.”
Gaetz’s legislation would bar automatic citizenship conferred upon babies born in America to parents who are not U.S. nationals.
The bill includes a provision excluding non-citizens who were admitted lawfully as refugees, permanent residents, or working with the military.
“Birthright citizenship has been grossly and blatantly misapplied for decades, recently becoming a loophole for illegal aliens to fraudulently abuse our immigration system,” the Florida Republican said in a press release. “My legislation recognizes that American citizenship is a privilege — not an automatic right to be adopted by illegal aliens.”

Joe Biden Allegedly Interacted With Son’s Clients More Than 200 Times
On Sunday night, the New York Post reported on anticipated testimony from Hunter Biden’s former business partner, Devon Archer.
The 48-year-old who went golfing with the Bidens in 2014 is expected to tell the House Oversight Committee how Hunter Biden put his father in contact with foreign businessmen and potential investors at least 24 times.
According to the Post, such meetings were either in person or by speakerphone, with Hunter Biden often dialing in Joe.
Beyond those meetings, there are more than 180 other episodes where the president interacted with his son’s business partners, contrary to his campaign claims of “absolute” separation.

McCarthy: Biden case will ‘rise to impeachment’ as 16 Romanian payments allegedly went to ‘shell companies’
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy predicted Republicans will gather enough evidence soon to mount an impeachment inquiry against President Biden, as the corruption scandal enveloping him and his son Hunter continues to grow.
McCarthy, R-Calif., made reference to a relatively new revelation from the House Oversight Committee that – while Joe was vice president – Hunter Biden “capitalized” on a financial relationship with a Romanian national later convicted on corruption charges.
McCarthy said Monday that 16 of those 17 payments went to what he described as “Biden shell companies” while President Biden was vice president. According to Comer’s prepared remarks, the elder Biden had been “lecturing Romania on anti-corruption policies” while instead being a “walking billboard for his… family to collect money.”
Only An Impeachment Inquiry Can Unravel Biden Family Corruption And The Feds’ Role
Last week, our country passed the tipping point: The evidence of President Joe Biden’s corruption during his time as vice president is now so overwhelming and the implications so serious, the disparate investigations underway in the House and Senate can no longer suffice.
Nor can the Department of Justice and the FBI — even under the auspices of a special counsel — be trusted to oversee the investigation given the overwhelming evidence that they obstructed the probe into the Biden family.
There is only one option left that can deliver truth and transparency to the American public, and that is an impeachment inquiry that investigates not just President Joe Biden, but Attorney General Merrick Garland, U.S. Attorney David Weiss, and FBI Director Christopher Wray.
