| More Than 1,600 Pro-Hamas Activists at 33 Schools Arrested Since Gaza Encampments Began |
| by Joshua Arnold |
| College campuses escalated their efforts to root out pro-Hamas occupations on Tuesday, with police arresting more than 430 people on nine different college campuses. Police have made more than 1,600 arrests in connection with the disruptive, illegal campus occupations since the first one began at Columbia University on April 19, according to an investigation by The Washington Stand. Disturbingly, some universities are beginning to cave to protestors' demands to restore order to campus, even as campus protests become increasingly dominated by non-students. |

| Vendetta against Johnson Backfires: 'I Did Not ... Come Up Here [to] Deal with This Kindergarten Atmosphere' |
| by Suzanne Bowdey |
| Compromise didn't use to be a dirty word in Congress. There was a time, not too long ago, when Americans wanted the two parties to try to work together. Now, according to Republicans, it's grounds to lose your job. This is the bizarre conundrum Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) finds himself in thanks to the irrational wing of the GOP - who, despite holding a whisper-thin majority, expect their leader to somehow call the shots with only a third of Washington's power levers. |

| Experts and Polls Agree that Dems' Lawfare Campaign against Trump Isn't Helping Biden |
| by S.A. McCarthy |
| Democrats are waging a "lawfare" campaign against former President Donald Trump, but it may actually be hurting Joe Biden's reelection efforts. According to the latest Harvard CAPS/Harris poll, voters will be largely split if a jury convicts the former president of crimes. If Trump were to be convicted either "of crimes related to his handling of classified presidential documents" or "for RICO in trying to influence the 2020 election results in Georgia," voters would be split 50% to 50% between Trump and Biden. However, if Trump were to be convicted "for inciting the Capitol riots of January 6th," he would beat Biden 52% to 48%. |

| TN Passes 'Baby Olivia Act' Requiring Public Schools to Show Students Unborn Babies' Development |
| by Sarah Holliday |
| In early 2023, North Dakota passed legislation that required public schools to show "a high-definition video, at least three minutes in duration, showing the development of the brain, heart, sex organs, and other vital organs in early fetal development." ND House Bill 1265 faced its share of scrutiny from the Left, as lawmakers across the country such as Iowa State Representative Jennifer Konfrst (D) claimed a video mapping out fetal development "is just politics" and "not scientifically correct." |

| Why Is the U.S. Turning a Blind Eye to Nigeria's Genocide? |
| by Lela Gilbert |
| Unfortunately, however prominent its art and wealth may be, Nigeria is responsible for the most violent persecution of Christians in all of Africa. And, tragically, the brutal violence against those endangered believers continues to escalate. Ferocious attacks by radical Islamists continues to rip apart the nation's vulnerable Christian population. |
