The <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/white-house">White House</a> has spoken out against a suggestion by Sen. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/elizabeth-warren">Elizabeth Warren</a> (D-MA) to develop abortion services at National Parks.
White House Press Secretary <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/karine-jean-pierre">Karine Jean-Pierre</a> addressed the issue during a Tuesday press gaggle aboard Air Force One.
&#8220;I think we talked about this the other day about, you know, building some kind of facilities on federal lands.  Are you any further along in terms of exploring those options?  And would it be a possibility to come to some agreement with Tribes to use Tribal lands?&#8221; Jean-Pierre was <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/press-briefings/2022/06/28/press-gaggle-by-press-secretary-karine-jean-pierre-and-national-security-advisor-jake-sullivan-en-route-madrid-spain/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">asked</a> by a reporter.
The press secretary noted that &#8220;we understand the proposal is well intentioned, but here’s the thing: It could actually put women and providers at risk.&#8221;
Jean-Pierre added that the move could lead to potential prosecution.
&#8220;And importantly, in states where abortion is now illegal, women and providers who are not federal employees — as you look at the federal lands — could be — potentially be prosecuted,&#8221; she added, claiming there are &#8220;actually dangerous ramifications to doing this.&#8221;
When pressed for additional details on the issue, Jean-Pierre only noted &#8220;we&#8217;re looking at an array of other options.&#8221;
The speculation about abortion services on National Park property spread after Warren mentioned the idea during a Washington Post interview.
&#8220;They could put up tents, have trained personnel — and be there to help people who need it,&#8221; The Post&#8217;s Caroline Kitchener reported Warren telling her regarding abortions at National Parks. &#8220;It&#8217;s time to declare a medical emergency.&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
The full article by The Post quoted Warren supporting Planned Parenthood &#8220;outposts&#8221; on the edge of National Parks. “The point is the acknowledgment of the emergency situation and the urgency of getting help out,” she <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/06/27/democrats-angry-party-leaders/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in the interview. “People need help immediately.”
Warren&#8217;s proposal follows comments by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) to build abortion clinics on federal land.
“Open abortion clinics on federal lands in red states right now!” she told supporters following the Roe v. Wade decision.

Ocasio-Cortez has also argued freedom of choice is &#8220;an inalienable right&#8221; despite the Supreme Court&#8217;s verdict that overturned Roe v. Wade and returned abortion laws to states.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
The strong response also follows trigger laws in 13 states that will further limit abortion following the Supreme Court&#8217;s Friday ruling.
Missouri became the first state to effectively ban abortions following the Court&#8217;s decision after Republican Attorney General Eric Schmitt issued an opinion within an hour of the ruling.
“Today, the overruling of Roe and Casey permits Missouri to renew its proud pro-life traditions and restore basic legal protection for the most fundamental of human rights — the right to life,” Schmitt <a href="https://missouriindependent.com/2022/06/24/abortion-is-now-illegal-in-missouri-in-wake-of-u-s-supreme-court-ruling/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a>.
Other states have followed, with a federal court <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/court-rules-tennessees-six-week-abortion-ban-can-take-effect-following-roe-decision">allowing</a> a Tennessee law to go into effect that will ban abortion after six weeks in most cases.

Many politicians are given cheat sheets by their staff to remember talking points and to help them stay on schedule, but observers noticed that President Joe Biden&#8217;s notecard on Thursday was filled out with a little more detail than normal.
Kate Hyde, a writer and commentator, flagged that Biden revealed the back of his notecard, showing instructions for how to act and to whom he should ask questions during meeting union and private sector leaders to discuss the new Federal-State Offshore Wind Implementation Partnership.
Biden began the meeting by saying he was &#8220;disappointed&#8221; by the Supreme Court&#8217;s decision released Thursday that upheld the Second Amendment and struck down a New York concealed carry law. As the video shows, one side of the card was written in what appears to be his own handwriting, while the other side had text with step-by-step instructions on what to do while in the room.

This is not the first time that Biden has been caught using a notecard with verbatim instruction. In late March, Biden was photographed with talking points on what to say about Russian President Vladimir Putin.
&#8220;Biden had to have ‘I was not articulating a change in policy’ written verbatim on a notecard so he wouldn’t screw it up… and he still screwed it up,&#8221; the GOP&#8217;s Jake Schneider tweeted.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Biden has made it a habit to mess up certain talking points, only to have the White House walk back his statements.
During that same press conference where Biden got busted with Putin talking points, the commander-in-chief was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/none-of-the-three-occurred-biden-denies-making-foreign-policy-gaffes-that-white-house-walked-back">asked</a> point-blank about several foreign policy gaffes relating to Russia. While in Europe in late March, the president appeared to tell U.S. troops that they were headed to Ukraine, suggested that the U.S. might retaliate with a chemical weapon if Russia used one first, and alluded to the possibility of regime change in Russia.
Each time, the White House had to issue clarifications after the president’s comments — but when Fox News&#8217; Peter Doocy asked Biden about the clarifications, he appeared to be completely unaware that his team had amended any of those statements, asking Doocy, “What’s getting walked back?”
Doocy asked Biden if he was “worried that other leaders in the world are going to start to doubt that America is ‘back’ if some of these big things that you say on the world stage keep getting walked back?”
“What’s getting walked back?” Biden responded.
“Just in the last couple days … it sounded like you told troops they were going to Ukraine, it sounded like you said it was possible the U.S. would use a chemical weapon, and it sounded like you were calling for regime change in Russia, and we know …” Doocy said before Biden interrupted.
The president interjected, denying that had happened at all, “None of the three occurred.”
According to the Baltimore Sun, the purpose of Thursday&#8217;s meeting was to <a href="https://twitter.com/baltimoresun/status/1540004786522685443?s=20&amp;t=AOJMXD8TTczDYvA0epG5Kw">launch</a> a &#8220;formal partnership with 11 East Coast governors, including Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan, to boost the growing offshore wind industry, a key element of President Joe Biden’s plan for climate change.&#8221;
That fact might get overshadowed by the president&#8217;s instruction list.

Vice President Kamala Harris has suffered a steady exodus out of her office amid reports that she is a bully and runs a dysfunctional operation.
It must be contagious, because now staffers are pouring out of the White House, too.
&#8220;A spate of resignations by high-profile aides to President Joe Biden has left the remaining White House staff frustrated as they toil with a crumbling domestic agenda, sky-high inflation, the war in Ukraine, and dimming prospects for Democrats in the November elections,&#8221; The Washington Times <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2022/jun/17/high-profile-white-house-departures-raise-alarms-a/">reported</a>.
&#8220;The high turnover at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, critics say, is a sign that those surrounding Mr. Biden are increasingly worried about a Democratic bloodbath at the polls and the prospects of Republican majorities in the House and Senate. A GOP takeover on Capitol Hill would be the death knell for the Biden‘s already stalled agenda and guarantee an onslaught of congressional investigations of the administration,&#8221; the Times said.
Among the latest changes is former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms being called in to replace Cedric Richmond, one of Biden’s most senior aides, Axios <a href="https://www.axios.com/2022/06/15/keisha-lance-bottoms-biden-cedric-richmond">reported</a>.
&#8220;As director of the White House Office of Public Engagement beginning in the coming weeks, Bottoms will immediately have access to some of the most high-level planning and strategy sessions in the West Wing — and to the president himself,&#8221; the website said.
There was an all-out staff shakeup in the White House Communications Office as former White House press secretary Jen Psaki departed for MSNBC. And while staffers usually serve just two to three years in the high-pressure job, it&#8217;s unusual for so many to be leaving so soon — a sign of bad things on the horizon, one GOP analyst said.
“It’s a mass exodus before midterms,” Jimmy Keady, a Republican strategist, told the Times. “Someone will be to blame and it’s not going to be <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/joe-biden/">Joe Biden</a>‘s terrible policies. Heads will roll after the midterms and in politics, responsibility runs downhill. No one wants to be holding the bag at the end.”
The exodus from the veep&#8217;s office followed a spate of bad press for Harris, with some staffers <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/12/04/kamala-harris-staff-departures/">saying</a> her office is dysfunctional and she is a “bully” who levels “soul-destroying criticism.” One <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/people-feel-treated-like-s-kamala-harris-runs-abusive-office-biden-team-concerned-report-says">report</a> said the two top elected officials in the country are not on the friendliest of terms, prompting a desperate Harris to defend her position, <a href="https://sports.yahoo.com/kamala-harris-hits-back-gossip-210146957.html">slamming</a> the media for “gossip.”
The reports about a dysfunctional office emerged first on CNN. “Many current and former West Wing aides say that Vice President Kamala Harris is not being adequately prepared or positioned, and instead is being sidelined, causing frustration among staffers,” CNN <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/14/politics/kamala-harris-frustrating-start-vice-president/index.html">wrote</a>.

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/hillary-clinton">Hillary Clinton</a> ruled out another run for the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/white-house">White House</a> in <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/2024-election">2024</a>, saying a third bid is “out of the question.”
The former secretary of state and onetime first lady told the <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/2e667c3f-954d-49fa-8024-2c869789e32f">Financial Times</a> in a highly sympathetic interview published Friday she expects President Joe Biden to run for re-election. But with his plunging approval numbers, some Democrats have hinted that the party needs a fresh face in two years. But it won’t be Clinton.
&#8220;No, out of the question,&#8221; she said. &#8220;First of all, I expect Biden to run. He certainly intends to run. It would be very disruptive to challenge that.&#8221;

Clinton lost the Democratic primary to former President Barack Obama in 2008, then lost to former President Donald Trump in the 2016 general election, although she has claimed that race was stolen from her. Biden has said he intends to run for re-election.
If Biden were to be re-elected and serve another four-year term, he would be 86 when he left the White House. Vice President Kamala Harris could step in if he decides not to run again. But her approval numbers are as dismal as Biden’s, and her own 2020 bid for the Democratic nomination gained no traction.
Clinton told the outlet she thinks Trump is poised to seek the Republican nomination in 2024 again, which would be his third White House run.
&#8220;I think if he can, he&#8217;s going to run again,&#8221; she said. &#8220;Follow the money with Trump — he&#8217;s raised about $130 million sitting in his bank account that he used to travel around, to fund organizing against elections &#8230; I don&#8217;t know who will challenge him in the Republican primary.&#8221;
Clinton told the outlet&#8217;s Edward Luce that the January 6 riots would never have happened if she had won four years earlier and said her loss to Trump haunts her. Luce told Clinton he had promised his young daughter Trump would not win, only to have her learn he&#8217;d been wrong.
&#8220;It&#8217;s really remarkable how often I&#8217;m told stories like that and how often I&#8217;m reading something like a work of fiction set in modern times[,] and 2016 is a traumatic event — it&#8217;s almost eschatological,&#8221; Clinton said. &#8220;It is a break in history. It&#8217;s such a piece of unfinished business.&#8221;
Although Clinton blames voter suppression and Russian interference for her loss to Trump, Special Counsel John Durham&#8217;s investigation into the origins of the Russia collusion hoax has indicated it began as a political <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/clinton-campaign-just-made-stuff-up-about-trump-russia-former-fbi-intel-chief-says">dirty trick</a> hatched by the Clinton campaign and approved by Hillary Clinton herself.

‘That’s Not True’: Peter Doocy Throws Cold Water On White House Claim Inflation Is ‘Worse Everywhere But Here’

On Wednesday afternoon, President Joe Biden&#8217;s administration condemned a radical missive purportedly from the pro-abortion group &#8220;Jane&#8217;s Revenge&#8221; promising to continue violent attacks on <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/pro-life-pregnancy-centers-are-under-attack">pro-life clinics</a> and organizations.
&#8220;Violence and destruction of property have no place in our country under any circumstances, and the President denounces this,&#8221; White House Assistant Press Secretary Alexandra LaManna told The Daily Wire.
&#8220;We should all agree that actions like this are completely unacceptable regardless of our politics,&#8221; she added.
Posted by Abolition Media, which describes itself as an online news source for revolutionary movements, the &#8220;Communique&#8221; <a href="https://abolitionmedia.noblogs.org/post/2022/06/14/janes-revenge-another-communique/">claims to be from Jane&#8217;s Revenge</a>. More than 20 pregnancy resource centers and offices of pro-life groups have been attacked since the leak of a draft Supreme Court opinion indicating that the justices are likely to overturn Roe v. Wade, <a href="https://catholicvote.org/pregnancy-center-attack-tracker/">according to Catholic Vote</a>.
Jane&#8217;s Revenge has claimed responsibility for a slew of these attacks.
In the purported Jane&#8217;s Revenge missive posted by Abolition Media, the abortion activists promise that they are &#8220;not one group but many.&#8221;
&#8220;You have seen that we are real, and that we are not merely pushing empty words,&#8221; the missive said.
The message claimed responsibility for attacks on pro-life organizations and groups in &#8220;Madison WI, Ft.

&#8220;We work in countless locations invisibly,&#8221; the message said. &#8220;You’ve read the communiqués from the various cells, you’ve seen the proliferating messages in graffiti and elsewhere, and you know that we are serious.&#8221;
&#8220;We were unsurprised to see thirty days come and thirty days pass with no sign of consilience or even bare-minimum self-reflection from you who impersonate healthcare providers in order to harm the vulnerable,&#8221; the purported Jane&#8217;s Revenge message said. &#8220;History may not repeat itself, but it certainly rhymes, and we’ve already seen such stanzas where medical autonomy is stripped away, humanity is increasingly criminalized, and merely surviving becomes largely untenable.&#8221;

The alleged Jane&#8217;s Revenge message warned pro-life advocates: &#8220;Your thirty days expired yesterday. We offered an honourable way out. You could have walked away. Now the leash is off. And we will make it as hard as possible for your campaign of oppression to continue.&#8221;
&#8220;We have demonstrated in the past month how easy and fun it is to attack,&#8221; the message said. &#8220;We are versatile, we are mercurial, and we answer to no one but ourselves. We promised to take increasingly drastic measures against oppressive infrastructures. Rest assured that we will, and those measures may not come in the form of something so easily cleaned up as fire and graffiti.&#8221;
Any pro-life group that closes its doors and &#8220;stops operating&#8221; will not be a target of the wrath of Jane&#8217;s Revenge, the message said. But the group issued a message to those who continue to provide services to pregnant women in need: &#8220;it’s open season, and we know where your operations are.&#8221;
&#8220;The infrastructure of the enslavers will not survive,&#8221; the message said. &#8220;We will never stop, back down, slow down, or retreat. We did not want this; but it is upon us, and so we must deal with it proportionally.&#8221;
The alleged Jane&#8217;s Revenge message claimed that the group finds &#8220;joy&#8221; and &#8220;courage&#8221; through attacking pro-lifers.
&#8220;For the allies of ours who doubt the authenticity of the communiqués and actions: there is a way you can get irrefutable proof that these actions are real,&#8221; the message concluded. &#8220;Go do one of your own. You are already one of us. Everyone with the urge to paint, to burn, to cut, to jam: now is the time. Go forth and manifest the things you wish to see. Stay safe, and practice your cursive.&#8221;
One attack bearing the &#8220;Jane&#8217;s Revenge&#8221; signature took place in Washington, D.C., on June 3 at Capitol Hill Crisis Pregnancy Center, where vandals dumped red paint on the door, egged the windows, and wrote &#8220;Jane Says Revenge&#8221; on the window.
&#8220;I’m very sad that people don’t understand what we do and how it helps so many,&#8221; the clinic director, Janet Durig, told The Daily Wire at the time. Asked if she felt unsafe, she responded, &#8220;At this point not terribly unsafe, but a certain amount of trepidation.”
The vandals attacked her clinic “because of the Roe v. Wade,&#8221; she said, emphasizing, &#8220;there are people who don’t like the fact that people who choose life have a place to go.”

Other centers fared far worse than the Capitol Hill Crisis Pregnancy Center — multiple pregnancy centers have been firebombed, such as <a href="https://patch.com/oregon/portland/s/iadjc/gresham-pregnancy-resource-center-fire-suspicious-police-say">Gresham Pregnancy Resource Center</a> in Portland, Oregon, and <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/oregon-right-to-life-molotov-cocktails-arson-attack-anti-abortion">Oregon Right to Life</a>.
Abolition Media did not respond to requests for comment from The Daily Wire, but Jane&#8217;s Revenge has chosen similar venues for sending out &#8220;communiques&#8221; in the past: on June 9, &#8220;<a class="gtmContentClick" href="https://twitter.com/dsmstreetmedics" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-vars-link-text="DSM Street Medics" data-vars-click-url="https://twitter.com/dsmstreetmedics" data-vars-content-id="c9105256-385b-4bd1-9090-eef7875e62eb" data-vars-headline="Jane's Revenge claims it vandalized Des Moines resource center" data-vars-event-category="story" data-vars-sub-category="story" data-vars-item="in_content_link">DSM Street Medics</a>&#8221; published a <a href="https://twitter.com/dsmstreetmedics/status/1534944167704547330">message</a> from Jane&#8217;s Revenge on Twitter taking credit for the vandalization of Agape Pregnancy Resource Center in Des Moines in early June.
DSM Street Medics said at the time that it was not affiliated with Jane&#8217;s Revenge.
On Friday, the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/fbi">FBI</a> <a href="https://www.justice.gov/usao-dc/pr/joint-statement-us-attorney-matthew-m-graves-district-columbia-and-assistant-director">warned</a> that while it will protect the First Amendment rights of Americans protesting at the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/supreme-court">Supreme Court</a>, it will not “tolerate violence, destruction, interference with government functions, or trespassing on government property.”
The warning comes after authorities arrested 26-year-old Nicholas John Roske of Simi Valley, California, near Supreme Court Justice <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/brett-kavanaugh">Brett Kavanaugh</a>’s home last Wednesday. Roske allegedly said he <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/police-arrest-armed-man-near-brett-kavanaughs-home-who-allegedly-wanted-to-kill-the-justice-report">wanted to kill</a> the justice.
A DOJ <a href="https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/22056069/roskenicholas.pdf">affidavit details</a> how Roske allegedly traveled to Kavanaugh’s home armed with weapons and burglary tools with the intent to kill the justice and prevent him from ruling on <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/second-amendment">Second Amendment</a> and abortion cases.
Roske found Kavanaugh’s address online, the affidavit said. Pro-abortion advocates with a group called Ruth Sent Us had posted the address online, sparking heavy criticism from those who feared for the justices’ safety. Ruth Sent Us, which did not respond to requests for comment from <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/">The Daily Wire</a>, put out a <a href="https://twitter.com/RuthSentUs/status/1534550021739163648">statement</a> last week saying they do not “support violence.”
Roske told authorities that he was upset about the “leak of a recent Supreme Court draft decision regarding the right to abortion as well as the recent school shooting in Uvalde, Texas,” indicating that “he believed the Justice that he intended to kill would side with Second Amendment decisions that would loosen gun control laws.”
“Roske stated that he began thinking about how to give his life a purpose and decided that he would kill the Supreme Court Justice after finding the Justice’s Montgomery County address on the Internet,” the affidavit said. “Roske further indicated that he had purchased the Glock pistol and other items for the purpose of breaking into the Justice’s residence and killing the Justice as well as himself.”

Roe v. Wade's Long And Brutal Legacy

Hunter Biden, the disgraced heir of President Joe Biden, bragged to a friend in 2018 about the influence he has over his father, saying the now-president would take any public position that his son wanted.
Biden appears to have recorded a conversation on his phone and uploaded it to his laptop that he later abandoned in a Delaware computer repair shop. <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/white-house/hunter-biden-laptop-presidennt-joe-tapes">The Washington Examiner</a> located the recording in a password-protected backup of his iPhone on a copy of the laptop’s hard drive.
“He’ll talk about anything that I want him to, that he believes in,” Hunter Biden says in the recording. “If I say it&#8217;s important to me, then he will work a way in which to make it a part of his platform. My dad respects me more than he respects anyone in the world, and I know that to be certain, so it’s not going to be about whether it affects his politics.”
“All those fears you think that I have of people not liking me or that I don’t love myself … I don&#8217;t fear that. You know why I don&#8217;t fear that? Because the man I most admire in the world, that god to me, thinks I&#8217;m a god,” Biden continued. “And my brother did, too. And the three of us, it was literally — I had the support to know I can do anything.”
The recording is of a conversation between Biden and British artist Phillipa Horan that took place on December 3, 2018, at a house in Plum Island, Massachusetts. At the time, Biden was regularly using crack cocaine. Five months after the conversation took place, Biden’s father announced a run for President of the United States.
Biden addressed his addiction to crack cocaine.
“Have you ever thought about this: Maybe this is the greatest thing that f***ing ever happened to me,” Biden told Horan. “Maybe this is literally the continuation and the continuum of what is going to be the thing that makes me the person that my father believes I am.”
Biden’s laptop contained a substantial cache of emails and messages between Biden and his business partners related to overseas business deals in China, Ukraine, and elsewhere. The laptop also contained photos and videos of Biden, some of them pornographic.
Biden reportedly dropped the laptop off at a Delaware computer store for repairs in April 2019. The store’s owner, John Paul Mac Isaac, serviced the laptop but considered it abandoned after Biden never came back to retrieve it. Isaac later turned it over to the FBI, but not before making a backup of the hard drive, which he later gave to Rudy Giuliani, at the time working as former President Donald Trump’s private attorney. Giuliani distributed the hard drive data to the press.
Biden has reportedly put together a legal team <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/hunter-biden-legal-team-claims-to-have-other-missing-laptop-hopes-to-prove-info-on-delaware-mac-faked">working</a> on proving the contents of the Delaware repair shop laptop are fake. The legal team reportedly has a laptop that was owned by Biden and confiscated by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration after it was left at Biden’s psychiatrist’s office.

President Joe Biden has officially proclaimed June 15 to be &#8220;World Elder Abuse Awareness Day.&#8221;
&#8220;Elder abuse takes many forms, such as financial, emotional, physical, and sexual harm, including intimate partner violence in later life. It often comes in the form of neglect, abandonment, or exploitation,&#8221; Biden <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2022/06/14/a-proclamation-on-world-elder-abuse-awareness-day-2022/">said</a> in an official White House statement.
World Elder Abuse Awareness Day started in 2006.
&#8220;On this World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, let us recommit to delivering all older Americans the promise of a comfortable and peaceful life with dignity,&#8221; he added. &#8220;Let us reaffirm our commitment to a world free from the scourge of abuse and neglect. Let us join the world in celebrating the essential role older adults play in our lives.&#8221;
For many critics, the proclamation is somewhat ironic given that the president, who is 79-years-old and known for his numerous gaffes, has been accused of suffering from elder abuse.
In March, after Biden forgot the name of Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, California Congressman Mike Garcia (R) openly declared that the president was being taken advantage of and was a victim of elder abuse.
“I want to thank you both,&#8221; Biden <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/washington-secrets/biden-bumbles-a-grievous-example-of-elder-abuse-dangerous-says-lawmaker">said</a> during a White House ceremony. &#8220;And I want to thank Sec- — the former general. I keep calling him ‘General.’ My — the guy who runs that outfit over there. I want to make sure we thank the secretary for all he’s done to try to implement what we’ve just talked about and for recommending these two women for promotion.”

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
&#8220;This, to me, in my opinion, and I mean this as gracefully and tactfully as I can, I think we are seeing nationally one of the most grievous examples of elderly abuse in our nation,” Garcia <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/washington-secrets/biden-bumbles-a-grievous-example-of-elder-abuse-dangerous-says-lawmaker">said</a> on a local D.C. radio show.
“This president is not fit for office. I don&#8217;t really believe he understands what he&#8217;s doing, and he&#8217;s got a political machine behind him that&#8217;s propping him up, and it scares the hell out of people like me who value our national security,” he told radio host Larry O&#8217;Connor.
&#8220;Garcia is hardly a flame-thrower,&#8221; O&#8217;Connor remarked after his comments. &#8220;And I haven&#8217;t heard a congressman lay it out so explicitly like that. It makes you wonder what&#8217;s being said when the microphones aren&#8217;t on.&#8221;
In reaction to the White House proclamation, columnist Stephen Miller wondered, “Does he know something happening to him tomorrow that we don&#8217;t? Is this a cry for help?&#8221;
“With Joe Biden, every day is Elder Abuse Awareness Day,&#8221; he added.

The White House on Monday said President Joe Biden and the Democrats have created a &#8220;historic economic boom,&#8221; but even if inflation and gas prices are soaring, &#8220;the American people are well positioned to face these challenges.&#8221;
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was grilled during her daily briefing about the economy, with inflation recently hitting a 41-year high and gas prices topping $5 a gallon for the first time ever. One reporter asked about Biden once bragging about the stock market hitting “record after record after record on my watch.”
&#8220;All the gains from President Biden’s time in office have been wiped out,&#8221; the reporter noted.
&#8220;So, as you know, we are watching — we’re watching closely,&#8221; Jean-Pierre said. &#8220;We know families are concerned about inflation and the stock market.  That is something that the President is — is really aware of. And so, look, we face global challenges. We’ve talked about this. This is — we’re not the only country dealing with what we’re seeing at the moment as it relates to inflation.”
&#8220;You know, Putin — Putin’s price hike, inflation, coming — coming out of a once-in-a-generation global pandemic — all of those things play a factor.  And, you know — but the thing — the way that we see this is that the American people are well positioned to face these challenges because of the economic historic gains that we have made under this President — under this President in the last 16 months,&#8221; she said.
Jean-Pierre went on to say the economy is actually doing great.
&#8220;So we know — we know that the — that high prices are having a real effect on people’s lives. We get that. And we are incredibly focused on doing everything that we can to make sure that the economy is working for every — American people. But we are coming out of the strongest job market in American history, and that matters. And that — a lot of that is thanks to the American Rescue Plan, which only Democrats voted for that — Republicans did not — and it led to this economic boom — this historic economic boom that we’re seeing with jobs,&#8221; she said.
The Labor Department on Friday reported that the consumer price index rose 1% in May from the prior month, for an annual rate of 8.6%. That rate topped the 8.5% increase in March to reach a level not seen since December 1981.

While the nation has been reeling from rising crime during the Biden administration, &#8220;defund the police&#8221; advocates have been visiting the White House or meeting with White House aides, White House visitor logs reveal.
Some of the activists have included Rashad Robinson, the president of Color of Change; Carmen Rojas, the President and CEO of the Marguerite Casey Foundation; Latosha Brown, the co-founder of Black Voters Matter; and Tylik McMillan, who serves as the “National Director of Youth [and] College” at Al Sharpton&#8217;s National Action Network, <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-white-house-hosted-defund-police-activists">Fox News</a> reported.
“So many people are twisting themselves into word pretzels,” Rojas tweeted last year. “They say we need justice in one breathe &amp; not all police are bad in the next. We must be unwavering in our commitment to freedom. The best way to realize it is to defund the police and support abolition. Period.”

Color of Change pushed to &#8220;dismantle&#8221; and replace the Minneapolis Police Department in 2021, according to Fox News. They created a <a href="https://act.colorofchange.org/sign/defund_police_national/">petition</a> titled, “TAKE ACTION: Defund the police, and invest in communities now!” The petition states, “The Minneapolis City Council recently approved a potential ballot measure that would change the city charter and dismantle the Minneapolis Police.

Brown, according to the White House visitor logs and Fox News, has communicated with Vincent Evans, who worked for Vice President Harris&#8217;s office.  Referring to police reform, Brown stated, &#8220;It&#8217;s kind of like having weeds in the yard.

“In August 2020, Brown promoted a ‘Defund the Police 101 Teach-In’ event led by two other defund the police activists,” Fox News stated.

Defund The Police

A new analysis by the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/heritage-foundation">Heritage Foundation</a> calls into question the widespread claim that giving puberty blockers and hormones to children who reject their biological sex prevents suicides &#8211; and grimly suggests the opposite may be true.
In a <a href="https://www.heritage.org/gender/report/puberty-blockers-cross-sex-hormones-and-youth-suicide">report</a> titled &#8220;Puberty Blockers, Cross-Sex Hormones, and Youth Suicide, the conservative think tank determined that causal conclusions being drawn between medical interventions and suicide among young people are not supported by data. The Washington-based foundation is hoping states use its findings to pursue policies strengthening parental involvement in such pivotal decisions for their children.
“The claim that puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones prevent suicides is being used by the Biden administration and state policymakers to ease access to those drugs,&#8221; Jay Greene, Heritage Foundation senior research fellow, Center for Education Policy, told <a href="https://www.dailywire.com">The Daily Wire</a>. &#8220;As it turns out, the science behind that claim is extremely weak and when the evidence is examined properly, it shows that making cross-sex treatments more widely available risks raising youth suicide rates rather than reducing them.”
The findings, which have not gone through peer-review, could be significant in light of President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden">Joe Biden</a>&#8216;s administration&#8217;s <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/white-house-early-trans-surgeries-hormones-are-crucial-for-kids-teens-who-identify-as-trans">recent assertion</a> that &#8220;early&#8221; interventions are &#8220;crucial&#8221; for the health of kids and teens who identify as transgender and nonbinary.  In making those claims, Biden is <a href="https://www.aclu.org/news/lgbtq-rights/doctors-agree-gender-affirming-care-is-life-saving-care">echoing</a> groups like the ACLU and LGBTQ organizations like the Trevor Project.
&#8220;It’s clear that gender-affirming care has the potential to reduce rates of depression and suicide attempts while banning this vital care and exposing young people to harmful political rhetoric can cause real harm,” Amit Paley, CEO and executive director of The Trevor Project, <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-health-and-wellness/hormone-therapy-linked-lower-suicide-risk-trans-youths-study-finds-rcna8617">said in December</a>, noting that it is &#8220;critical that all transgender and nonbinary youth across the country have access to medical care that is affirming, patient-centered, and evidence-based.&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Prior research conducted on the relationship between adolescent suicides and puberty blockers or cross-sex hormones is weak not only because it doesn&#8217;t contain &#8220;credibly causal studies and only a handful of correlational studies,&#8221; Green wrote, but also because the correlational studies previously conducted are &#8220;poorly executed.&#8221;
Elevated suicide rates in states where minors can easily access puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones became &#8220;observable&#8221; in 2010, Green wrote, noting that &#8220;rather than being protective against suicide, this pattern indicates that easier access by minors to cross-sex medical interventions without parental consent is associated with higher risk of suicide.&#8221;
The report found that around 2016, suicide rates among young people aged 12 to 23 began to increase dramatically in states with provisions allowing minors to access healthcare without parental consent, compared to states that do not have such a provision. This was after cross-sex medical intervention became more common, the report said.
&#8220;By 2020, there are about 3.5 more suicides per 100,000 people ages 12 to 23 in states with easier access than in states without an access provision,&#8221; the study said, noting that &#8220;there is no similar spike in suicide rates among those ages 28 to 39&#8221; at that time.

States that have the minor access provision include Connecticut, Georgia, Iowa, Kentucky, Mississippi, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Tennessee, and Vermont, according to the analysis, which notes that there is &#8220;no obvious geographic, demographic, or partisan pattern to whether states have these provisions.
Before 2010, Green found, state policies allowing minors to access healthcare without parental consent did not really play into the trend in suicide rates among young people aged 12 to 23.
&#8220;The timing of the increase in suicide rates&#8221; raises &#8220;serious concerns about the effects of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones on suicide risks, Green wrote, noting that the suicide rates increased &#8220;only among young people, only after puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones are introduced and used widely, and only in states where minors could access those medical interventions without parental consent.&#8221;
The Heritage Foundation analysis stops short of examining whether people who obtain &#8220;gender-related medical interventions are at a higher risk of suicide.&#8221; But it does directly examine &#8220;the state policies that facilitate minors accessing those interventions without parental consent and finds that those policies raise suicide risks among young people.&#8221;
&#8220;To believe that easier access to puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones are not the cause of elevated suicide risk in those states, one would have to be able to imagine other medical interventions that only became widely available after 2010 and would only affect young people,&#8221; Green wrote. &#8220;The lack of theoretically plausible alternatives strengthens the case for concluding that cross-sex medical interventions are the cause of the observed increase in suicide among young people.&#8221;
The Heritage Foundation report did not analyze a 2019 study published in JAMA Psychiatry, which found that exposure to conversion therapy, &#8220;a discredited practice that seeks to change a trans person’s gender identity,&#8221; is linked to suicidal thoughts and attempts, according to <a class="c-link" href="https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-health-and-wellness/early-access-gender-affirming-hormones-linked-better-mental-health-stu-rcna11839" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-health-and-wellness/early-access-gender-affirming-hormones-linked-better-mental-health-stu-rcna11839" data-sk="tooltip_parent" data-remove-tab-index="true">NBC News</a>. However, the Foundation did examine the survey that the 2019 study was based on, finding it to be unrepresentative of all American adults who identify as transgender &#8220;because its participants were recruited as a convenience sample, largely through transgender support groups.&#8221;

The White House strongly condemned the actions of a man arrested near Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh&#8217;s home late Wednesday night, expressing gratitude to the authorities who apprehended the man.
&#8220;President Biden condemns the actions of this individual in the strongest terms, and is grateful to law enforcement for quickly taking him into custody,&#8221; White House Deputy Press Secretary Andrew Bates told The Daily Wire on Wednesday morning.
&#8220;As the President has consistently made clear, public officials—including judges—must be able to do their jobs without concern for their personal safety or that of their families,&#8221; he added. &#8220;And any violence, threats of violence, or attempts to intimidate justices have no place in our society.  He has said that himself, and his spokespeople have been forceful about this from the podium.&#8221;
Though President Joe Biden&#8217;s administration has condemned any kind of violence related to protesting over news that Roe v. Wade might soon be overturned, the White House has not specifically condemned protesting at the Supreme Court justices&#8217; homes.

And on Wednesday, Bates did not say that the Biden administration condemns protesting at the justices homes, noting that the former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki has emphasized that Americans may protest peacefully.
Bates noted that Attorney General Merrick Garland has condemned threats to the justices, <a href="https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/attorney-general-merrick-b-garland-meets-supreme-court-officials-regarding-judicial-security">saying</a>, “The rise of violence and unlawful threats of violence directed at those who serve the public is unacceptable and dangerous to our democracy.”
Biden supports legislation that would fund increased security for the court and the judges, Bates said on Wednesday, noting that  &#8220;the Department of Justice has U.S. Marshals providing support to the Supreme Court Marshal.&#8221;
He also flagged the Department of Homeland Security&#8217;s <a href="https://www.dhs.gov/news/2022/06/07/dhs-issues-national-terrorism-advisory-system-ntas-bulletin">promise that it is</a> &#8220;working with [their] partners across every level of government and the private sector to share timely information and intelligence, prevent all forms of violence, and to support law enforcement efforts to keep our communities safe.&#8221;
Supreme Court Public Information Officer Patricia McCabe confirmed to The Daily Wire on Wednesday morning that “at approximately 1:50 a.m. today, a man was arrested near Justice Kavanaugh’s residence.”
“The man was armed and made threats against Justice Kavanaugh,” she said. “He was transported to Montgomery County Police 2nd District.”
The Montgomery County Police did not immediately respond to a request for comment from The Daily Wire.
Anonymous sources familiar with the investigation <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2022/06/08/kavanaugh-threat-arrest-justice/">told The Washington Post</a> that the man is in his mid-20s and was carrying at least one weapon as well as burglary tools.
<div class="teaser-content grid-center">
<div class="article-body" data-qa="article-body">
Someone had tipped off police that the man could potentially pose a threat to Kavanaugh, the sources told the publication, and the man was stopped on a street near Kavanaugh’s Montgomery County residence. He did not enter Kavanaugh’s property, the report said.
</div>
<div class="article-body" data-qa="article-body">
The Washington Post reported that initial evidence suggests the man was angry over recent mass shootings and reacted to a leaked draft opinion indicating that the Supreme Court would overturn Roe v. Wade.
News of the man arrested at Kavanaugh&#8217;s home comes amid ongoing attacks on pro-life centers and clinics across the country, including in the nation&#8217;s capital, where a pro-life center was vandalized with red paint, eggs, and graffiti.

“This is why leaks are dangerous. This is why doxxing justices is a bad idea. This is why justices’ homes should be off limits,” tweeted President of the Judicial Crisis Network Carrie Severino.
“This is why the Court must release the Dobbs opinion as soon as possible,” she added. “This is not, to quote the Chief Justice, ‘business as usual’ at the Court. The threat to the justices is not theoretical. Until the opinion is finally released, the justices are in grave danger.”
Severino called on Biden to “stop appeasing the radicals” in his party, emphasizing that “protests belong in the public square, not at justices’ private homes.”
“Will you finally condemn them?” she asked.
