Twitter Cancels Daily Wire Film ‘What is a Woman’ Over ‘Misgendering’.

Twitter has canceled a package deal with the Daily Wire website, wherein the two companies were partnering to air Matt Walsh’s documentary What is a Woman? Daily Wire co-founder Jeremy Boreing claimed in a thread written Thursday that Twitter identified two instances of “misgendering,” which is considered “abuse and harassment.”

Upon reviewing the documentary, Twitter told the Wire they would only agree to the package provided the “misgendering” was edited out. The platform then insisted that the documentary’s visibility would be severely diminished, whereby it would not appear in the feeds of Twitter users. The Musk-run platform is allegedly now enforcing a “speech not reach” rule – a policy Boreing described as like saying “you have the right to cast a vote, but we’ll make sure it isn’t counted.”

“I hope @elonmusk will reconsider this awful policy,” Boreing concluded.

But it may not be Musk’s decision anymore. The new rules seem to coincide with the incoming CEO Linda Yacarrino, an executive chairwoman of the World Economic Forum (WEF) who has supported “de-risk[ing]” Twitter with “ad safety [and] content moderation.”

She even suggested to Musk that it would be wise to re-establish an “influence council” to help police speech. Meanwhile, Musk has been in China, kowtowing to the Chinese Communist Party.

Russian Invasion Turned Ukraine Gay, Says Reuters.

Support for gay unions in Ukraine has become the majority position following Russia’s full-scale invasion of the country in 2022, according to the Reuters news agency.

Reuters offered this observation in a report on the European Court of Human Rights ruling against Ukraine, after a gay couple complained they were unable to marry at seven different register offices. Their complaint focused around the Ukrainian constitution stating marriage is “based on the free consent of a woman and a man.”

A survey by the National Democratic Institute and the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology in January, Reuters noted, “found that 56% of Ukrainians support same-sex civil partnerships, while 24% oppose it.”

They added, however, that “such partnerships did not enjoy majority support prior to Russia’s invasion in February 2022, and gay pride marches have been met with violent opposition from Ukrainian far-right groups.”

Indeed, as recently as 2010 the Pew Research Center reported that only 28 per cent of Ukrainians agree that “gay men and lesbians should be free to live their own lives as they wish” – a much milder prospect that changing the definition of marriage.

Why there has been such a change in attitudes since the invasion is unclear, although it is possible that social conservatives now serving at the front or living in territory controlled by Russia were beyond the reach of the National Democratic Institute and Kyiv International Institute of Sociology pollsters.

COVID Task Force Chief Enters Presidential Race.

The former chairman of the White House’s COVID Task Force, Vice President Mike Pence, is set to announce his campaign for the Republican nominee for president next week in Iowa.

The former VP joins an increasingly crowded Republican race, especially given the recent entry of former New Jersey governor Chris Christie. Pence will fight against his former running mate, Donald Trump.

Pence led the United States’ COVID-19 response, alongside Health and Human Services Secretary, Alex Azar. Pence was also responsible for the infamous appointments of Anthony Fauci and Debbie Birx to the task force team.

Pence is likely to focus his fire on Donald Trump and January 6th, and is due to appear on a CNN town hall stage in order to do so.

Amongst Republicans, Pence currently enjoys two percent of support.

Debt Ceiling Deal Passes House, Goes to Senate with Six Days to Default Deadline.

The debt ceiling deal between President Joe Biden and Speaker Kevin McCarthy has cleared the House of Representatives.

With just six days to go until the default deadline on June 5th, the bill was passed by the Republican-controlled House despite 71 conservative Republicans voting against it.

Some 165 Democrats found the terms of the debt ceiling deal agreeable – indeed, more Democrats than Republicans voted for it, in the end, with MAGA grandee Steve Bannon commenting that it was “always a Democratic Bill”.

Some Senate Republicans have already signaled they will vote against the bill, with Senator Rand Paul, for example, saying there is “nothing conservative about a debt deal that grants unlimited borrowing for two years that experts estimate will likely exceed $4 trillion.”

Democrats control the Upper House, however, and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is expected to begin organizing votes on the bill as soon as today, with a view to hashing out any amendments and getting it on President Biden’s desk by Monday.

Notably, the bill has caused ructions within Republican presidential hopeful Ron DeSantis’s camp, with the Florida Governor appearing to oppose the debt ceiling deal while his spokesman Steve Cortes has publicly endorsed it.

EXC: Leaked CPAC ‘Do Not Invite’ List Shows Schlapp’s ‘Z-List’, Including Trump Family, Congressmen, and His Own Board Members.

Conservative Political Action Committee (CPAC) chairman Matt Schlapp retained a “DO NOT INVITE” spreadsheet of “Z listers” for his conferences. That list has been obtained by The National Pulse, and stunningly includes names such as Eric, Barron, and Tiffany Trump, as well as America First Members of Congress, and even some of CPAC’s own board members.

Schlapp’s treasurer – former Congressman Bob Beauprez – resigned last week alleging there was a “cancer” metastasizing inside the American Conservative Union (ACU), the parent organization of CPAC, also run by Schlapp. Dozens of staff have resigned in recent months.

Schlapp’s “Z-DO NOT INVITE” list is lengthy, and on a ‘CPAC Texas’ tab, includes names such as:

  • Morton Blackwell, Priscilla O’Shaughnessy, Ron Robinson, and Tim Ryan – all believed to be current, active board members of Schlapp’s own organization;
  • Reps. Paul Gosar, Matt Gaetz, James Comer, and around 50 other Members of Congress;
  • Barron Trump, Tiffany Trump, and Eric Trump, all prominent members of the Trump family;
  • General Flynn, Kayleigh McEnany, Kellyanne Conway, Brandon Straka, and dozens more.

It’s worth noting that’s Schlapp’s favoritism is fickle, with some of the “Z-list” having spoken at subsequent CPACs. But the unearthed list will add credence to the idea that Schlapp has used CPAC and the ACU as his personal playground for years.

Former CPAC board member Ned Ryun told The National Pulse: “It’s bizarre that the head of the ACU has a do not attend list of actual conservatives who can’t attend a conservative conference. We’re talking about him barring his own board members and elected members of Congress. Beyond being absurd, and obviously deeply personal and pettish, this stinks of cronyism, and a pay-to-play attitude.”

In 2014, when Schlapp took over CPAC, he told POLITICO: “The goal of ACU is not to kick all people out who might come from a different perspective,” he said. “In its name, it’s a union, to bring people together in a coalition. That’s the goal.”

Somewhere in the last nine years, that goal appears to have changed. A new book – The Big Break – details how the Schlapps even considered dropping their support for Donald Trump in 2016 over his immigration policies.

Just 7% Say DeSantis Campaign Launch Went ‘Very Well’.

Just 7 percent of Americans say Florida Governor Ron DeSantis‘s campaign launch last Wednesday went ‘very well,’ according to new survey data from YouGov.

The Twitter launch was marred by technical problems, which precipitated campaign leaks and infighting, resulting in the removal of one of the governor’s closest advisors, Phil Cox. The launch even chased off endorsements. In the end, Team DeSantis reached only a fraction of people compared to Donald Trump’s campaign launch in November 2022.

A plurality of 45 percent of Americans said they believe the DeSantis campaign launch went badly (24 percent), or very badly (21 percent) Another 31 percent answered ‘Not sure.’

Only seven percent of those surveyed thought the event went ‘very well,’ with another 17 percent answering ‘somewhat well’ – a total of just 24 percent.

Voter Preference.

The pollsters also asked: “Which of these two Republicans do you think has the best chance of winning the 2024 general election for president?”

Former President Donald Trump received the largest vote with 39 percent. Another 37 percent answering ‘not sure.’ Once again, less than a quarter of voters – 24 percent – thought Ron DeSantis has the best chance of winning.

China Spies Attempt Entry to U.S. Military Sites Posing as Tourists.

US officials believe that a number of Chinese spies masquerading as tourists have been collecting information on military facilities in Alaska, reports USA Today.

According to one Army officer, “[n]ot everyone who appear to be tourists in Alaska, are, in fact tourists… instead they are foreign spies,” such as one incident involving Chinese citizens with a drone driving past a security checkpoint at Fort Wainwright.

Alaska hosts three military bases – Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage, Eielson Air Force Base near Fairbanks, and Fort Wainwright – and is regularly used by the Pentagon for military exercises over land and sea, making it a prime target for international espionage.

One major concern for security officials is, according to David Deptula, a retired Air Force general, now dean of Mitchell Institute for Aerospace Power Studies, Chinese spies leaving behind “sensors that could pick up sensitive communications.”

“There is no doubt that the greatest long-term threat to our nation’s ideas, our economic security and our national security is that posed by the Chinese communist government,” argued the Director of the FBI Christopher Wray in April this year.

North Korea Appointed to World Health Organization’s Executive Board.

North Korea will sit on the Executive Board of the United Nations’ World Health Organization (WHO), despite its history of using food as a weapon against its people.

Swathes of people in North Korea, formally the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), suffer from stunting as a result of widespread malnutrition in the country.

The situation was significantly worse in the 1990s, with hundreds of thousands starving to death as the communist regime sought to withhold food from people it considered expendable or undesirables and hindered food aid – all while spending vast sums of money developing nuclear armaments and ballistic missiles.

Other controversial members of the WHO Executive Board include Communist China, with its own grim history of deadly man-made famines, and Taliban-controlled Afghanistan.

Such appointments are not unusual in United Nations agencies, however, with Saudi Arabia elected to the UN Commission on the Status of Women and the Islamic Republic of Iran actually winning the chairmanship of the UN Human Rights Council.

American taxpayers handed the UN around $12.5 billion in 2021, accounting for roughly a quarter of its total budget.

WATCH: DeSantis Spox Demands Citizenship for Illegal Migrant ‘Dreamers’ Who She is ‘In Favor Of’.

Christina Pushaw, “Rapid Response Director” for Ron DeSantis’s 2024 presidential campaign, recently argued that immigration “has been a net positive thing for the country,” and that she is “in favor of Dreamers” – the class of illegal migrant championed by President Barack Obama.

Pushaw stated in an unearthed Zoom call (below) that immigration does “not need to be better enforced, or regulated,” but rather, that “the law needs to be better because right now it’s extremely difficult to immigrate legally even for qualified people, even for people who are working hard which many undocumented immigrants do by the way: they work and they pay taxes.”

“I think… we need to streamline the system so that it’s easier for people who have a real reason and desire and will contribute something to the USA to actually be legal,” Pushaw argues further.

“I am in favor of dreamers, so people who were brought as kids by their parents illegally, they grew up in America, they have lives in America, I mean they’re Americanized, so yes they should be citizens,” she adds.

WATCH: 

This follows the recent reports of Pushaw doubling down on her strong support of Volodymyr Zelensky and the war in Ukraine.
