    The American public deserves better than what Dr. Anthony Fauci did yesterday in front of Congress

    Dr. Anthony Fauci will face a contempt of Congress vote next week Dr. Anthony Fauci will face a contempt of Congress vote in a Senate committee next week after he invoked the Fifth Amendment in a hearing about his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and its origins. Kentucky Senator Rand Paul led the charge to have the now-retired infectious disease expert testify. But Fauci declined to answer dozens of questions from senators. "Any reasonable person who has followed his unhinged obsession with me would readily come to the same conclusion," said Fauci. "Therefore, although it pains me to do so because of the respect I have for the legislative branch of government and my decades-long record of cooperating with Congress, under the advice of my attorneys, I will invoke my right under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution to refrain from answering your questions. Thank you." Paul told CBS News he believes Fauci could be prosecuted for not answering questions during the hearing.

    New York mayor Mamdani will open up 5 city owned grocery stores, this should end well.............

    Mamdani: Today, I am proud to announce a collection of essential staples that will be predictably 30% cheaper at all five of our city-run grocery stores. This core set of goods will include all fresh produce, meat, and seafood, along with 20 other essential items like cheese, milk, and bread. Here's how it will work. Once a month, our five city-run grocery stores will set prices for this core set of goods at 30% below typical retail prices. No exceptions, no gimmicks. The savings will last for the entire month. That means no weekly fluctuations or sticker shock at the checkout line—not for our seniors living on fixed incomes, nor for the parents who rely on a regular supply of apple slices to keep toddler tantrums at bay.

    Open AI says AI models hacked into another AI company without being instructed

    Artificial intelligence models from OpenAI staged a breakout this month. AI researchers will often ask models that they're testing to perform a task without having access to the internet. It's like taking a closed-book exam in school. OpenAI says two of its experimental models escaped that isolated environment to cheat on the test. According to the maker of ChatGPT, the models gained access to the internet and hacked into another AI company called Hugging Face. OpenAI called it, quote, "unprecedented cyber incident" and the CEO of Hugging Face said it was, quote, "an attack unlike anything we've seen before." To better understand this, we called Nate Soares. He's the president of the Machine Intelligence Research Institute and coauthor of the book "If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies." Nate, so I got to be honest, and I hate to do this - defaulting to Hollywood (laughter) on questions about AI - but it sounds like "Terminator 3: Rise Of The Machines" meets "The Matrix." So walk us through what happened. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Gov Tim Walz defends vote to pardon convicted sex offender

    Gov. Tim Walz is defending his vote to pardon a man convicted of molesting a 10-year-old child more than 20 years ago. Last week, the Trump administration deported Tou Lue Vang despite a pardon approved by Walz, Attorney General Keith Ellison and Supreme Court Chief Justice Natalie Hudson in their role on the Board of Pardons. Walz said the victim’s advocacy for Vang factored in his decision to grant the pardon. “I can tell you in these pardons, one of the overriding factors that continuously influences the decision — certianly of me, I can’t speak for the rest of the board, but looks like that — depends on where the victims are at,” Walz said. The governor emphasized that this action “didn’t let this person out of jail.” Vang completed his sentence — served entirely as supervised probation — in 2019. Walz said his vote to pardon Vang was not an attempt to prevent him from being deported, though Vang is at least the third convicted felon with pending removal orders to be pardoned in Minnesota this year. In May, the Board of Pardons unanimously granted clemency for At “Ricky” Chandee, who was convicted of second-degree assault in 1993; and Jai Vang, a Laotian man who was convicted of aggravated robbery in 1994. On the same day the board considered a pardon for Vang, four others who had applied for pardons — including three who were facing deportation — were denied. Brian Evans, a spokesman for the Attorney General’s Office, said they lacked victim support. In all cases, the Department of Homeland Security criticized the pardons as attempts to “take away qualifying convictions” for removal from the U.S. Vang was deported anyway. Walz questioned whether Vang’s removal improved outcomes in Minnesota. “I guess the question I would as is, did that make us any safer? Did that make the children that are left behind any more stable? Did it improve the idea that we can’t all be judged by our worst day?” Walz said.

    'If we die, we die together': Wife of man nearly sucked out of Ryanair plane speaks of ordeal

    A woman who held the legs of her husband as he was nearly sucked head-first out of a Ryanair cabin window on Friday said his "right shoulder and head were outside the plane". Svetlana Grković, who was travelling with her husband Ljubisa Karović from Greece's Thessaloniki to Germany's Memmingen, told BBC Serbia how two other passengers helped pull him back inside after nearly two minutes. "We pulled him back together," she said. "His entire face was deformed and blood was pouring from his nose and mouth." Speaking to Serbian outlet Nova, Grković said she "immediately reacted and grabbed his legs", adding: "I thought: 'If we die, we die together.'"

    Upside-down American flag at Minnesota Somali celebration sparks community chaos: 'Unfathomable'

    More details are emerging after an American flag was displayed upside down at a Somali Independence Day event in Minnesota, sparking both outrage and apologies in a situation that has gone viral on social media in recent days. The St. Cloud Police Department confirmed to Fox News Digital that on July 3 at 5:29 p.m., the department received a call that the U.S. flag was being flown upside down on a city flagpole at the Lake George Park Pavilion during a Somali Independence Day event. A video from that event, exclusively obtained by Fox News Digital, showed the flag upside down as event attendees, roughly 500 people at peak times, enjoyed the festivities. The department said the officer "corrected the flag without objection" and that organizers "indicated to City staff that the flag being flown upside down was not intentional." Police leader blasts ‘spineless’ Mayor Frey, Minneapolis City Council for Somali gang problem, staffing woes Joe Gamaldi, the national vice president of the Fraternal Order of Police, joined Liz Collin on her podcast to talk about policing in Minneapolis. Somali gang problem captured on camera from the 4th of July This past weekend marked yet another violent Fourth of July in Minneapolis. Dozens of car windows were smashed, there was a homicide, and several people were injured by gunfire—with some of it caught on camera. Despite the danger to the public, many local leaders seem unwilling to publicly acknowledge that there is a Somali gang problem in the city. Gamaldi, however, had a lot to say about policing and crime in Minneapolis. “I think Mayor [Jacob] Frey likes to talk tough with everyone, but I think we all know he is completely spineless,” Gamaldi said. “Because these gangs know that even if they are arrested, they’re just gonna be let right back out over and over and over again,” he said. Gamaldi pointed out who is really getting harmed by all of this: “the law-abiding, hardworking members of the community.” “You know, it’s funny because you’ll see politicians who, I will remind you, sit their asses safely behind their desks and say we need to defund and dismantle the police department. But it’s not them who has to deal with the consequences,” he added. Gamaldi explained how “defund the police” ideology shares much of the blame for the rise in violence. “When we went down this failed social experiment back in 2020 and 2021, you saw 16 American cities experience their highest murder rate in recorded history. Innocent civilians paid with their blood,” he said. Gamaldi spoke clearly about the hypocrisy of the “defund the police” movement: “You know who got it the worst? It was black males who averaged a homicide rate of 12 times that of any other race. Yet we still had these lunatics pushing defund the police.” “It is very clear that they are willing to put their failed ideology over the safety of their community members, and it’s sickening,” he added.
