The museum said in a press release: Archaeologists at George Washington’s Mount Vernon have unearthed an astounding 35 glass bottles from the 18th century in five storage pits in the Mansion cellar of the nation’s first president. Of the 35 bottles, 29 are intact and contain perfectly preserved cherries and berries, likely gooseberries or currants. The contents of each bottle have been carefully extracted, are under refrigeration at Mount Vernon, and will undergo scientific analysis.

On Friday on Fox News Channel, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) warned what a second term for President Joe Biden would mean for the country as Russia and China continue to amass global power.
The Arkansas Republican told FNC host Martha MacCallum that Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping have only been emboldened under Biden’s presidency.
“Martha, what I think Putin and Xi are thinking is they hope Joe Biden wins because, for three and a half years, America’s had a ‘kick me’ sign on our back because of Joe Biden’s weak, failed presidency,” he said. “I agree with what the former president just said,

PARIS (AP) – Water in the Seine River had unsafe elevated levels of E. coli less than two months before swimming competitions are scheduled to take place in it during the Paris Olympics, according to test results published Friday.
Contamination levels in the first eight days of June, after persistent heavy rain in Paris, showed bacteria such as E. coli and enterococci beyond limits judged safe for athletes.
The report was published by monitoring group Eau de Paris one day after a senior International Olympic Committee executive said there were “no reasons to doubt” races will go ahead as scheduled in a historic downtown stretch of the Seine near the Eiffel Tower.
Citizens Against Government Waste, a nonprofit, has published its annual “Congressional Pig Book,” and it’s a doozy.
Published annually since 1991, the “Congressional Big Book” contains a compilation of all the wasteful “pork-barrel” projects in the federal budget pursued by both Democrats and Republicans. [Tweet]
Covering last year’s budget, this year’s book reportedly contains 8,222 earmarks costing a whopping $22.7 billion.
Of the legislators who pursued earmarks, Rep. Susan Collins, a Republican, pursued the most.
“Her 231 earmarks cost $575,580,000, which is $109,429,721, or 23.5 percent more than the legislator in second place, Senate Appropriations Committee member Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), who received 185 earmarks costing $466,370,279,” the book reads.

Hunter Biden has been accused of owning 10 percent of a company that’s been facilitating illegal migration across the southern U.S. border.
The accusation was made by former Trump administration official Mike Benz, who now serves as the director of the Foundation for Freedom Online.
“Hunter Biden actually owns 10 percent of a company called ePlata, which is a microfinancing loan company for illegal immigrants coming up through the southern border,” he said in a recent viral video.
“At the same time, the Biden Administration Justice Department put out a notice telling the banks that they would, that the Justice Department would take legal action
A Southwest Airlines flight traveling from Phoenix, Arizona, to Oakland, California, experienced a rare “Dutch roll” at 32,000 feet, causing “significant damage” to the Boeing aircraft.
Southwest Flight 746 was in the air on May 25 “when its tail began to wag left and right, causing the plane’s wings to rock from side to side,” the New York Post reported.
As the Boeing 737 experienced side-to-side and see-sawing motions simultaneously, it sustained “substantial” damage but was able to complete the flight, according to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
The damage was not discovered until a “post-flight inspection,” USA Today reported.
No injuries were reported by any flight crew or passengers.
Left-wing radio host Dean Obeidallah said Friday on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” that the Republican Party is a “fascist movement” that will use violence to acquire power.
Obeidallah said, “Apparently, yesterday was bring a terrorist to work day because that’s the reality. What so angers me is that January 6 was an act of domestic terrorism. That’s what Christopher Wray, the FBI director, testified before the House and Senate. Those Republicans know, Ted Cruz even leaked out one saying it was an act of terrorism. Then, he had to apologize for telling the truth. They welcomed a terrorist to the Capitol yesterday.
The Palace provided a health update on Princess Kate on Friday.
Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, will return to public life amid her battle with cancer.
The princess released a statement on Friday:
I have been blown away by all the kind messages of support and encouragement over the last couple of months. It really has made the world of difference to William and me and has helped us both through some of the harder times.
I am making good progress, but as anyone going through chemotherapy will know, there are good days and bad days. On those bad days you feel weak, tired and you have to give in to your body resting.
The Los Angeles City Council has decided to remove ‘No U-Turn’ signs from a gay neighborhood, claiming they’re homophobic.
In an era where ideologies should be advancing, it’s baffling that the far-left remains stuck in the past, misreading everyday symbols as politicized messages.
Who, in the year 2024, still believes that road signs like “No U-Turn” are covert directives aimed at the LGBTQ+ community, instructing them not to engage in wild sex in the streets?
I didn’t know that traffic signs were hurting feelings.
According to the LA Times:
Messages like, “No cruising. No U-turns. Midnight to 6 am” were posted around the neighborhood in 1997,

The FBI has arrested an Arizona man on multiple gun and hate crime charges after he allegedly plotted a mass shooting at a rap concert in Georgia “to incite a race war prior to the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election.”
Mark Alan Prieto, 58, a supposed right-winger reportedly revealed his plans to an FBI informant who “spoke with him more than a dozen times over three years at various gun shows.” He allegedly tried to recruit the informant and another undercover agent to stage the attack at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia.
The Biden camp is in full-blown panic mode after a video of Biden wandering away from the G7 group went viral.
The Democrat-media complex is going into full damage control to protect Joe Biden.
The left-wing media claimed conservative media sites shared a viral clip of Biden without context.
The longer video clip of doddering Joe is even more horrifying.

Biden campaign spox Adrienne Elrod called the viral video of Joe Biden wandering off “disinformation” and demanded “social media platforms” censor it.
Of course, Joe Biden wants to censor and silence conservative media.
Democrats plan to disrupt Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech to a special joint session of Congress on July 24 in an unprecedented show of hostility to the democratically-elected leader of a close American ally.
56 Democrats boycotted Netanyahu’s speech in 2015, when Republicans invited him to argue against then-President Barack Obama’s nuclear deal with Iran. This time, Axios reports, “Democrats plan to go bigger than a boycott”:
The proposals include a press conference, a vigil, or an event with families of those taken hostage by Hamas, many of whom feel Netanyahu hasn’t done enough to free their loved ones.
In a sign of how extensive and high-level some of these discussions are,

Imagine a Jan. 6-style crisis, only this time with serious (as opposed to politically manufactured) disagreements over whether the presidential candidate who won a key state is entitled to its electoral votes.
That disturbing scenario just became a little bit more likely — not for the next presidential election but subsequent ones. Without fanfare, Minnesota’s governor signed legislation last month that would award the state’s 10 presidential electors to the national popular-vote winner even if he or she lost Minnesota. The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact purports to take effect once states carrying 270 electoral votes (the minimum needed to win the presidency) have agreed to its terms.
Nearly half of Americans expect President Joe Biden to suffer an embarrassing gaffe during the first debate against former President Donald Trump.
According to a new poll by J.L. Partners, 49 percent of voters believe Biden will forget where he is while on stage with Trump, and 41 percent expect him to wander off of the stage.
The survey also found that a massive 70 percent of Americans think the 81-year-old president will fumble over his words— something he is very prone to.
Voters from both sides of the political aisle doubt Biden’s ability to even make it through the whole debate in one piece.
In a groundbreaking announcement made last Friday in Detroit, Michigan, Lara Trump, the co-chair of the Republican National Committee (RNC), revealed plans to build a formidable watchdog army. This force will be tasked with safeguarding the integrity of our elections this coming November.
“Our other top priority is election integrity,” said Lara Trump. “If we don’t have free, fair, and transparent elections, nothing else matters. That is our goal at the RNC. Every single person in this country, regardless of how you vote, should want free and fair elections.”
Joined by RNC Chairman Michael Watley, she detailed the plans to mobilize an ‘election watchdog army’ that will operate across
Los Angeles— Some of Hollywood’s brightest stars headlined a glitzy fundraiser for President Joe Biden on Saturday night, helping raise what his reelection campaign said was $28 million and hoping to energize would-be supporters for a November election that they argued was among the most important in the nation’s history.
George Clooney, Julia Roberts and Barbra Streisand were among those who took the stage at the 7,100-seat Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel interviewed Biden and former President Barack Obama, who both stressed the need to defeat former President Donald Trump in a race that’s expected to be exceedingly close.
No person with a loved one who has suffered through addiction could feel anything but empathy for Hunter Biden and his family. “There are a lot of Hunter Bidens in this world, people who fell in way over their heads, who long for someone to believe they can recover and construct their lives differently,”
The chirp of cicadas in the tree-lined streets of Evanston is almost deafening. Billions of the insects have been making their periodic emergence from underground dormancy, on a scale not seen for centuries. With the ground strewn with dead bugs, and gardeners rushing to put protective netting around their plants and trees, locals have dubbed it ‘The Cicada-geddon’.
And yet this quiet university town – an affluent suburb of Chicago on the shores of Lake Michigan – now has another interloper that its ultra-liberal citizens deeply resent.
Three years after Evanston proudly became the first local government in the US to start paying reparations to its black citizens – in this case
Former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Robert Redfield said he predicts a bird flu pandemic will happen, it’s just a matter of when that will be.
Redfield joined NewsNation Friday to discuss the growing concern for bird flu, as the virus has been detected in dozens of cattle across the country and the World Health Organization identified the first human death in Mexico. {snip}
He also noted that bird flu has a “significant mortality” when it enters humans compared to COVID-19. Redfield predicts the mortality is “probably somewhere between 25 and 50 percent mortality.” NewsNation noted that the death rate for COVID was 0.6 percent.
New York Times columnist and former Oregon Democratic gubernatorial candidate Nicholas Kristof admitted on Saturday that the West Coast cities is "a mess" because of Democratic Party leaders. In a column for the New York Times, Kristof argued that "West Coast liberalism" is more focused on the intentions behind its policies rather than its outcomes. As a result, deep blue states like Oregon have major homeless and drug problems, "below-average" high school graduation rates, and high murder rates.
"But liberals like me do need to face the painful fact that something has gone badly wrong where we’re in charge, from San Diego to Seattle,"

Biden campaign calls on GOP to drop lawsuits

over mail ballots, citing Trump’s new
fondness for it 20 replies
President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign on Thursday called on top Republicans to drop litigation seeking to curtail aspects of mail balloting now that Donald Trump has begun to embrace the method.
Trump for years falsely claimed voting by mail was riddled with fraud, but his 2024 campaign began a program this month to encourage mail voting if convenient for people. It is part of Republicans’ attempt to increase mail voting among their supporters.
At the same time, the Republican National Committee, newly under the former president’s control, has sued or joined lawsuits seeking to limit certain aspects of mail voting.
Joe Biden has logged yet another foreign policy disaster under his belt after the Pentagon announced the "Gaza pier" will be dismantled due to damage.
Some press reports describe the move as "temporary," though it's questionable whether the project will ever resume after being completely torn down and towed away. This marks the latest in a string of logistical issues involving the president's prized pier.For context, the pier has been in place for less than a month, and it's already suffered multiple shutdowns related to moderate seas overtaking it. Here's the full timeline illustrating just how absurd this idea was.
What’s happening with black women in America? Some are rising to power thanks to the DEI movement, which rewards skin color, gender, and sexual preference over merit, experience, or excellence. However, the problem arises once those women who are not qualified are placed in positions of power and leadership, where they often quickly crash and burn. From embezzling $15 million in COVID funds to engaging in shameless plagiarism, these meritless women have demonstrated that they are not up to the task and struggle with the responsibilities they’ve been given. Naturally, they revert to what they know best: lying, cheating, and stealing.
