Hezbollah Terrorists Launch Rocket Attack on Northern Israel Injuring 30, Killing 11 Children

Townhall: Israel is facing another “all-out-war” after Hezbollah reportedly terrorists fired a rocket at the Israeli Druze Arab village of Majdal Shams, where at least ten people were killed, including children. However, Hezbollah has denied the allegations, saying that “it has no connection to the incident at all and categorically denies all false allegations.” A rocket hit a field where children ages ten to twelve were playing soccer, resulting in fatal wounds. Israel’s foreign minister, Israel Katz, said that the death toll is expected to rise as 30 people were taken to nearby hospitals for their injuries (Townhall). New York Post: The Israeli military Sunday identified 11 of the 12 kids killed by Hezbollah rockets that hit a soccer field at a playground in the Israel-controlled Golan Heights – as thousands gathered for the funerals of the slain children (New York Post). Oli London: Lebanese terror group Hezbollah kills at least 9 children, critically injures over 20 others during a rocket attack on a children’s playground and soccer field in Northern Israel. The rockets struck the Druze town of Majdal Shams (X).

FBI Confirms Donald Trump Was Hit By a Bullet

National Review: The FBI confirmed on Friday that former president Donald Trump was hit by a bullet or bullet fragment during the failed assassination attempt earlier this month, days after its chief suggested that it was something other than a bullet. “What struck former President Trump in the ear was a bullet, whether whole or fragmented into smaller pieces, fired from the deceased subject’s rifle,” the agency said. The definitive statement came after FBI director Christopher Wray speculated during congressional testimony on Wednesday that the object that struck Trump’s right ear could have been a bullet, shrapnel, or glass (National Review). Daily Wire: The New York Times conducted a thorough video, audio, and trajectory analysis this week that found that Trump was hit by a bullet and not any kind of debris. Forensic experts confirmed that the viral photo that captured a bullet passing by Trump’s head, after it struck his ear, was the first shot that was fired (Daily Wire).

Barack, Michelle Obama Endorse Kamala Harris

USA Today: In a video endorsement released Friday, Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama are shown calling Harris together to offer their support. After Biden dropped out, Harris quickly secured enough Democratic National Committee delegates to become the presumptive Democratic nominee and coalesced the party’s establishment behind her (USA Today). Kamala Harris: It means so much to have your endorsements, Michelle Obama and Barack Obama. Let’s get to work (X).

Chuck Schumer Claims the Supreme Court “threatens democracy”

News Busters: We were reliably told that attacks against the courts were attacks against our very institutions, and therefore on Democracy itself. That is, unless you are a Democrat appearing on a Regime Media Sunday political affairs show and attacking a majority-conservative Supreme Court. In which case, fire at will. Figuratively, hopefully. CBS’s Robert Costa, filling in for Margaret Brennan on Face The Nation, enables Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) as he attacks the Court, accusing it of “threatening democracy” without any sort of pushback or follow up (News Busters). RNC Research: Chuck Schumer goes on another unhinged rant against the Supreme Court for levying decisions he doesn’t like, smearing the Court as an “ethical morass” that “threatens democracy” (X).

Olympics Removed Videos of Opening Ceremony Mocking Christianity, Jill Biden Praises Ceremony

Daily Caller: The Olympics removed videos of its opening ceremony featuring drag queens mocking Christianity from its official YouTube channel less than 24 hours after the games began. The 2024 Paris Olympic Games faced backlash for what critics deem a “blasphemous” opening ceremony showcasing drag queens posed as Christian imagery including “The Last Supper” and Greek God Dionysus. Since then, the Olympics has removed its own YouTube videos of the performance as re-uploads begin to disappear from multiple social media platforms (Daily Caller). Libs of TikTok: The Olympics deleted all the footage because they don’t want you to see their sick, satanic, degenerate opening ceremony (X). New York Post: Paris Olympics organizers apologized Sunday to anyone who was offended by a tableau that evoked Leonardo da Vinci’s “The Last Supper” during the glamorous opening ceremony (New York Post). Oli London: Jill Biden calls the Olympic Opening Ceremony, which mocked Christians, SPECTACULAR. “It was spectacular…every step of the way I was thinking to myself oh my God, oh my God how are we going to top this” (X).

Media, Democrats Wants Us to Memory Hole Kamala Harris’ Record

Fox News: Liberal media organizations are largely remaining mum over the unified stance they have embraced in rejecting the unofficial “border czar” label of Vice President Kamala Harris. Harris was widely dubbed the “border czar” after President Biden tasked her in March 2021 to address the root causes of mass migration from Central and South America. While the Biden administration has rejected the title, the term was widely used by her critics and even embraced by multiple news organizations, at least until she ascended to the top of the ticket as the Democratic presidential nominee after Biden announced his exit from the race (Fox News). MSN: In a surprising twist, GovTrack, which is this popular site for keeping tabs on government, just deleted a page. This page used to rank Vice President Kamala Harris as the most liberal senator out of all 100 U.S. Senators (MSN). End Wokeness: GovTrack just DELETED their 2019 page that ranked Kamala Harris as THE MOST LIBERAL of all 100 Senators (X). Seth Leibsohn: Don’t miss what’s happening: VP Kamala Harris has just been virtually coronated as the nominee … receiving absolutely zero votes along the way. And: our elite media enterprise complies in downright Orwellian fashion (Townhall Review).

Charges Dismissed for Pro-Palestinian Protesters Who Stormed University of Columbia Building

Newsmax: The 13 pro-Palestinian protesters who stormed a Columbia University building in April will have their criminal trespassing charges dismissed if they complete six months of probation and take a class on “legal protest,” reported the Columbia Spectator. The Manhattan District Attorney’s office, which first made the offer to the defendants on June 20, granted the adjournment Thursday. The report comes a month after the DA dropped charges against 31 of the 46 Columbia University protesters arrested inside Hamilton Hall largely due to a lack of evidence (Newsmax). National Review: At least 300 protesters were arrested at Columbia and the City College of New York, including 119 people who barricaded themselves inside the admissions building on Columbia’s campus. New York City mayor Eric Adams said at the time that he believed outside agitators were responsible for the protests’ escalation (National Review).

UK Drops Challenge to ICC’s Arrest Warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu

Associated Press: British Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s office said Friday that the U.K. will not intervene in the International Criminal Court’s request for an arrest warrant against Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The announcement is reversal of plans announced by former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, who was ousted earlier this month when Starmer’s Labour Party swept Conservatives from office in a landslide (Associated Press). BBC: In addition to Benjamin Netanyahu, the ICC’s chief prosecutor is also seeking arrest warrants for Hamas leaders Yahya Sinwar and Mohammed Deif, and Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.

Northern California Wildfire Becomes One of the Largest in State History

New York Post: The Park Fire burning in Northern California near Chico has now become one of the largest wildfires in state history as flames continue to grow, causing additional evacuations to now spread across four counties and taking aim at a community that is still reeling from a deadly wildfire just six years ago. CAL Fire now estimates the Park Fire has burned more than 350,000 acres as of midday Saturday, which ranks the fire as No. 7 on California’s list of most acreage burned by a fire. At least 134 homes and structures have been damaged or destroyed and another 4,200 are threatened, fire officials said. Over 50 community zones are now under evacuation warnings across 4 counties, spanning more than 4,400 people (New York Post). CNN: An evacuation warning has been issued for the town of Paradise, a place where people know the horrors of a raging wildfire all too well. In 2018, the deadliest wildfire in state history, the Camp Fire, incinerated much of the town. Three years later, the Dixie Fire burned nearby. And now, residents of Paradise say the smell of smoke is already enough to traumatize them anew (CNN). NBC: The Park Fire was started on Wednesday by a man who pushed a flaming vehicle into a gulley filled with dried brush at a park in Chico, authorities allege. The blaze erupted and quickly doubled in acreage and then doubled again amid hot temperatures, dry brush and gusty wind (NBC).

76 Percent of Income Tax Goes to Interest Payments on U.S. National Debt

PJ Media: More than three-fourths of all personal income tax from American taxpayers will go directly toward paying off the interest on our massive and ever-burgeoning national debt. FAIRtax reported the sobering data on July 20, explaining, “Interest Payments on U.S. National Debt Will Shatter $1,140,000,000,000 This Year – Eating 76% of All Income Taxes Collected.” Yet politicians from both parties only increase instead of restricting government spending. We are headed for a national financial catastrophe of epic proportions (PJ Media). Economist Peter St Onge, Ph.D.: How did we get here? Two men: FDR and Richard Nixon. Together, they broke the dollar. And put the American people into debt slavery (X). Elon Musk: America is headed for bankruptcy fyi (X). U.S. debt is about to eclipse $35 Trillion (debt clock).
