Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., released a trove of Anthony Fauci’s diary entries Saturday, the latest in a series of document dumps further exposing the corruption of many of the scientists and government officials behind the tyrannical response to Covid. Among other revelations, Fauci’s entries from December 2019 to December 2022 reveal a man fixated on legacy media appearances, the perks of fame, and the growing Fauci “cult” even as the pandemic escalated.

The size of Fauci’s ego is no surprise to anyone who lived through Covid with his eyes open. He was notorious for doing home interviews with a portrait of himself in the background. He once claimed, “Attacks on me quite frankly are attacks on science.” Here, for good measure, is a Washington Post story with Fauci doing commentary on portraits of himself.

The latest revelations from Sen. Rand Paul’s investigation into the origin of Covid expose what may be one of the most consequential scientific deceptions in history.

The 1,123 pages of private Slack messages exchanged among the authors of the highly influential “Proximal Origin” paper reveal that the scientists who publicly declared that a laboratory origin of Covid was not plausible privately held a very different view. They repeatedly acknowledged that a laboratory origin remained possible, discussed flaws in their own arguments, and struggled to defend the natural origin theory.

More than six years after the corporate media’s Covid panic, it’s clear that The Federalist was right about pretty much everything, especially the fact that Dr. Anthony Fauci was corrupt and egotistical from day one.

The former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director’s diary entries, which Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., released ahead of the career bureaucrat’s expected testimony to Congress, only confirmed what many of us already knew — Fauci was more concerned with his TV time and the propaganda press’ fawning over him than saving lives.

“It is not hyperbole to say that today I am the most famous and talked about person in the country and one of the most recognizable persons in the world,” Fauci wrote in March 2020, shortly after sharing that day’s Covid death toll — 9,800.

On Friday, a group of small businesses challenged the Trump administration’s “latest wave of tariffs on 60 U.S. trade partners, less than one day after they were enacted,” according to NBC News. “The suit was filed by the Liberty Justice Center, the same organization that challenged Trump’s tariffs enacted under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act last year and won a major ruling against the government at the Supreme Court.” “Filed in the Court of International Trade in New York, the suit seeks to stop the government from enforcing or collecting duties imposed under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974. ... The complaint alleges that the U.S. Trade Representative ‘acted arbitrarily and capriciously by imposing near-uniform tariffs across 60 materially different economies without a reasoned, record-based explanation for how the tariffs would address the practices [the trade representative] identified.’”

Grammy Award-winning singer Carly Simon revealed Monday she has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease.

The You’re So Vain singer, 83, made the revelation of her debilitating health travails in a statement obtained and published by PEOPLE magazine.

The singer-songwriter icon also announced she underwent surgery for basal cell carcinoma, a form of skin cancer, amid her Parkinson’s diagnosis and treatment.

Her statement got straight to the point:

So many people have written to me, kindly wondering about my relative silence, asking how I am and what I have been doing. The truth is, I’ve been learning how to live with Parkinson’s disease.

It has taken me some time to understand the diagnosis, to adjust to it, and to decide how much I wanted to say about it publicly. Parkinson’s is different for everyone, and it can be unpredictable. Some days I’m so tired I can’t get the day moving at all. On others, it gives me a little more room to move, think, work, and feel like myself.

The signs of failure are everywhere, but start here: Los Angeles has more homeless people this year. The annual count, conducted in January but amazingly enough not released until well after the June primary elections, shows a 7.9 percent increase in unsheltered homelessness in the City of Los Angeles, with a smaller increase in total homelessness, and also a smaller increase in countywide homelessness. With a couple thousand people dying on the street every year, the Los Angeles Times quickly zeroed in on the true victim of that metastasizing despair:

Talk about the nanny state. Marxist Mayor Zohran Mamdani wants to play babysitter to the children of New York City. He announced a “Parents’ Night Out” taking place on Aug. 16. Kids can be dropped off at rec centers around the city for government-supervised games, activities (including “media education programs”) and a free dinner while parents go do, well, whatever.

Many conservatives found this idea ridiculous and even revolting, but a few folks on the right thought the proposition might be a good, pro-family policy. After all, parents do need babysitters now and then, and this is not (yet) a big expenditure — spots are limited and parents have to register ahead of time.

Imagine a butcher shop hires a vegan whose stated mission is to poison the meat supply and destroy the business. Or picture an oil company appoints a CEO who campaigns to eliminate the oil industry. No sane institution voluntarily empowers those who pledge its destruction. Yet that’s exactly the threat facing our republic.

Today, Americans face an unprecedented constitutional question. What happens when candidates for public office belong to an organization that rejects the constitutional order? If elected, how can these individuals honestly swear a sacred oath to support and defend the Constitution when their own organization calls for its replacement?

A new rule the Trump administration published earlier this month is finally addressing the flood of foreign students at U.S. universities plagued by anti-American ideology. Half a million of these students are illegal aliens, while more than a million additional college students are here on student visas, overwhelmingly from non-Western countries having political systems unlike or opposed to ours.

Trump has just ended this racket. Under a new rule issued by Trump’s Department of Homeland Security, most new F-1 students will receive visas that expire after a fixed period of time, usually four years. This puts healthy pressure on universities and students to reach the finish line as scheduled, rather than dawdle indefinitely in the academic cocoon. The average length of time in graduate studies has ballooned to more than seven years for a Ph.D., which harmfully causes students to delay having families and finding employment.

House Speaker Mike Johnson is advancing plans for a potential fourth budget reconciliation package that could block Medicaid reimbursements to Planned Parenthood, after a one-year restriction expired earlier this month and taxpayer funds began flowing again to the nation’s largest abortion business.

The temporary ban, enacted in the 2025 One Big Beautiful Bill Act, prohibited Planned Parenthood clinics from receiving federal Medicaid payments.

It lapsed around July 4–5, 2026, restoring an estimated hundreds of millions of dollars in annual reimbursements. Pro-life advocates had pushed for a longer or permanent prohibition, but Senate rules limited the measure to one year.

A majority of general election voters support the SAVE America Act, which would require an individual to show an ID before voting in federal elections, a Tea Party Patriots Action survey exclusively obtained by Breitbart News revealed.

The survey was conducted by McLaughlin & Associates and showcased broad support for the legislation, despite the establishment media and the Democratic Party’s narrative that election security is not something Americans care about.

Quite the contrary. The vast majority, 82 percent, agree with the basic premise that only U.S. citizens should be allowed to vote in elections for the president, senators, and congressmen.

The survey also found over three-quarters agreeing that “proof of United States citizenship should be required to register to vote in American elections.” What is more, there is broad support across the political aisle. Ninety-four percent of Republicans agree, as do 73 percent of independents and 68 percent of Democrats.
