From FrontpageMag, then-Governor Ronald Reagan (R-Cal) did not invent the term "welfare queen", but used it when quoting the media.

From Townhall, the story of the U-Haul crash near the White House will soon disappear from the media.  (Those non-white white supremacists will get after ya.)

From The Washington Free Beacon, the NAACP's travel advisory on Florida ignores the facts on the ground.

From the (U.K.) Independent, residents of Whitstable, England feel that holiday rentals have "hollowed out" their community.

From the (Irish) Independent, dáilcritter David Stanton becomes the fifth from the Fine Gael party to stand down for Ireland's next general election.  (Since the Irish legislature is called the Dáil, a dáilcritter is the Irish equivalent of a U.S. congresscritter.)

From the Irish Examiner, a man in Blackpool, Ireland gets a year in prison for having a stash of she-don't-lie in his house.

From VRT NWS, the owner and manager of a bar in Leuven, Belgium each get six months in prison for "racist and xenophobic memes" projected onto the bar's screens.

From The Brussels Times, it's the wolf!  (If you're not familiar with the phrase "it's the wolf!", go here.)

From Balkan Insight, data from Bosnia and Herzegovina contradicts Croatia's claim about migrant and refugee "readmissions".

From The American Conservative, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has become the "fundraiser-in-chief".

From The Western Journal, Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) finds a way to avoid complying with the Senate dress code.  (Too bad that the fashion police didn't arrest him and the QAnon shaman before each entered the Capitol building.)

From BizPac Review, more on the aforementioned U-Haul crash near the White House and its "white supremacist" driver.

From The Hill, The Daily Wire will start streaming its shows on Twitter.

Form the New York Post, Asian-Americans in New York don't appreciate Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) raising funds off their heritage.

From Breitbart, Chinese-owned TikTok, Inc. files a suit against Montana its ban of their platform allegedly violates the 1st Amendment.  (Let me get this straight.  A company owned by a communist country, where free speech does not exist, is concerned about free speech.)

And from the Genesius Times, many Germans are reportedly impressed with the FBI's gestapo tactics.
