On a warm cloudy Wednesday, here are some things going on:

From Townhall, according to a poll, most people in New Hampshire are ready to ditch Senator Maggie Hassan (D).

From The Washington Free Beacon, "yes, we will question the integrity of our federal law enforcement officials".

From the Washington Examiner, jaguars seen in Mexico near the U.S. border could signal their return to the U.S.

From The Federalist, why Democrat claims that "no one is above the law" are hollow.

From American Thinker, the American justice system has gone Beria.

From CNS News, a TV ad contrasts the response (or lack thereof) to attacks on churches from Presidents Kennedy and Biden.

From Canada Free Press, how Trump flipped the script on the Great Reset.

From TeleSUR, Ecuador and China will sign a free trade agreement this year.

From TCW Defending Freedom, welcome to the latest climate conference, in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt.  (Can the nearby airport accommodate all those private jets?)

From ReMix, inflation hits a 40-year high in the U.K. at 10.1 percent.

From Balkan Insight, the Russian embassy in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina accuses the West of "NATOising" the country.

From The North Africa Post, Morocco and the U.S. discuss cooperation against human trafficking.

From The New Arab, Egyptian security forces attack and detain inhabitants of the Nile island of Warraq after protests against government plans to depopulate the island for commercial projects.  (Sounds like the demolition of the Fort Trumbull section of New London, CT on steroids.)

From Israel Hayom, speaking in Germany, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas claims that Israel perpetrated "50 Holocausts" against the Palestinians.

From the Daily Mail, Saudi Arabia sentences a student at Leeds University in the U.K. to 34 years in prison for having an account on Twitter and following and retweeting Tweets from dissidents.  (What is this "freedom of speech" you speak of?)

From the Daily Caller, according to a study, students needed to make up their coronavirus pandemic-related learning losses, but instead standards were lowered for them.

From the New York Post, according to experts, credit for falling gas prices should not go to the White House.  (I think that the Biden administration can claim credit for the recent falling gas prices only if they'll also accept the blame for rising gas prices that started when they took office.)

From Newsmax, a former Trump White House official mourns Liz Cheney's primary loss.

And from Fox News, a biologically male trans woman applies to join every sorority at the University of Alabama, and get rejected by every single one of them.  (via the New York Post)
