Former Democratic presidential hopeful Beto O’Rourke has apparently done a complete 180-degree turn from at least one of his key stances on the 2020 campaign trail. During the Democratic primary, O’Rourke famously shouted from the debate stage , “Hell yes, I’m going to take your AR-15, your AK-47.” And his passion on that specific issue was the reason that – at the rally where O’Rourke dropped out of the primary and endorsed President Joe Biden’s campaign — then-candidate Biden said that he’d be bringing O’Rourke along to help his administration with a gun control strategy. O’Rourke doubled down , saying that he still stood by that comment as recently as November of 2021.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi appears to have defied her archbishop’s order not to receive Holy Communion in light of her pro-abortion stances and advocacy. The California Democrat attended mass on Sunday at Holy Trinity in Georgetown where she received Holy Communion, Politico Playbook reported . Pool reports show that President Joe Biden often attends evening masses at the parish as well. It is not immediately clear which priest at Holy Trinity gave Pelosi communion. None of the Jesuit priests on staff at Holy Trinity, described as “a parish of the powerful,” responded to requests for comment from The Daily Wire. The parish website advertises a June 15 “Pride Mass,” and highlights a video of a gay man, who says he is married to a man, though the Catholic Church teaches that marriage should only be between a man and a woman and that “under no circumstances” will the church approve homosexual acts. The church’s pastor, the Reverend C. Kevin Gillespie, has previously … [Read more...] about Pro-Abortion Pelosi Ignores Her Archbishop’s Ban, Receives Communion: Report | The Daily Wire

When Governor Eric Holcomb (R-IN) vetoed commonsense protections for girls’ sports and equality, he suggested the state of Indiana would face legal hurdles. He said lawsuits were already being drawn up to challenge the law. This is why he claimed he had to veto the protections for Hoosier girls. As the chief legal officer for Indiana, I can tell you this reasoning is B.S. As legislators reconvene this week to override the governor’s veto, my office stands ready to uphold the law and defend any challenges. Hoosiers won’t be bullied by woke groups threatening girls’ sports. We won’t kowtow to left-wing special interests and the Biden administration undermining true equality in our state. We stand by the law and will vigorously defend it in court if, and hopefully when, the General Assembly overrides the veto. The passage of HEA 1041 to ban males from competing on female sports teams is an important step in protecting youth sports and has been championed by my office. … [Read more...] about Defending The Rights Of Hoosier Girls To Fair Competition In Athletics   | The Daily Wire

Will Smith told David Letterman that he felt like a “coward” for failing to protect his mother from his abusive father. The “Men In Black” actor made the comments during a new episode of Netflix’s “My Next Guest Needs No Introduction,” according to The New York Post. The episode started with a disclaimer saying it was filmed prior to the 2022 Academy Awards ceremony, which was when Smith slapped Chris Rock across the face. “Don’t say nothin’ ‘bout my mother, Dave,” Smith teases Letterman at one point during the episode. Later, the 53-year-old actor talked about his childhood and how it still affects him. Smith said he goes into detail about certain events in his upcoming memoir, “Will.” “The first line of the first chapter is, ‘I’ve always thought of myself as a coward,” the actor told Letterman. “When I was nine years old, I saw my father beat up my mother, and I didn’t do anything. And that just left a traumatic impression of myself as a coward.” “Life is … [Read more...] about Will Smith Said He Felt Like A ‘Coward’ For Not Defending His Mother From Abusive Father | The Daily Wire

The 75th Cannes Film Festival was rocked by another day of protests, this time with a group of feminists unfurling a banner and using handheld smoke devices while on the red carpet. It happened during the star-studded festival when about a dozen women dressed in black gowns took to the stairs of the famed Palais in France and dropped a giant banner with the names of “129 feminicides in France since the last Cannes festival,” according to the group, reported Variety. The outlet noted that the term “feminicides” means “intentional killing of women because they are female.” The ladies, who are members of the feminist movement “Les Colleuses,” stood on the steps while holding their fists in the air. They released canisters sending up black smoke as they held a banner that contained the names of women who allegedly died as a result of domestic violence since the previous festival, reported the Hollywood Reporter. The feminist collective known as "Les Colleuses" stormed the … [Read more...] about Cannes Film Festival Rocked By Another Day Of Protests, This Time With Smoke Devices | The Daily Wire

Mick Jagger doesn’t agree with people comparing him to fellow recording artist Harry Styles. The comparisons between the 78-year-old Rolling Stones band member and the 28-year-old One Direction artist happen partially because of how both men sometimes wear dresses and makeup. Jagger told The Sunday Times that he has an “easy relationship” with Styles and likes him as a person but disagrees that Styles commands the same stage presence. “I mean, I used to wear a lot more eye make-up than him,” Jagger said, “… Come on, I was much more androgynous.” The U.K.-based singer added, “He doesn’t have a voice like mine or move on stage like me; he just has a superficial resemblance to my younger self, which is fine — he can’t help that.” Styles is a big fan of Jagger and has been linked to him throughout his career, People reported . The One Direction singer mimicked some of Jagger’s outfits for music videos and even did an impression of the Stones legend for an … [Read more...] about Mick Jagger Denies Harry Styles Comparisons, Says It’s A ‘Superficial Resemblance’ And He’s More ‘Androgynous’ | The Daily Wire

Former President Donald J. Trump and former Vice President Mike Pence are scheduled to participate at competing campaign events on Monday evening, the eve of Georgia’s GOP gubernatorial primary. Trump has endorsed former Senator David Perdue over incumbent Governor Brian Kemp. Pence has thrown his support behind Kemp and is scheduled to appear at a campaign rally on Monday night. Trump will also be appearing in a virtual tele-rally for Perdue just days after the president disputed a report by NBC that he had stopped lending his support to the former senator. “The Kemp campaign, together with Fake News NBC, has put out a phony narrative that I have given up on David Perdue in Georgia,” Trump said on his social media site, Truth Social. “That is completely false!” he added. “I am with David all the way because Brian Kemp was the worst governor in the country on election integrity!” Kemp, who Trump has repeatedly criticized for his handling of the 2020 election, appears to be … [Read more...] about Trump, Pence To Participate In Competing Georgia GOP Primary Campaign Events | The Daily Wire

Is the truth out there? Congress wants to know and for the first time in 50 years a hearing on Capitol Hill took place last week to investigate UFOs. Well, sort of. A House Intelligence subcommittee welcomed Department of Defense official Ronald Moultrie and Deputy Director of Naval Intelligence Scott Bray to unearth secrets that our government may or may not have about unearthly visitors. The results were mixed. While there were no bombshells regarding close encounters, there was an acknowledgement from the Pentagon officials that videos of flying objects do exist which our best and brightest simply have no reasonable explanation for. Bray testified that sightings of UAP, the technical term for UFOs, are “frequent and continuing.” He cited 400 incidents that his stargazing task force is studying. The committee was shown several videos, taken by military pilots, of objects in the air performing maneuvers beyond what we believe to be current human or modern aircraft … [Read more...] about Close Encounter Of The Congressional Kind | The Daily Wire

Elon Musk, embroiled in his own scandal that he has dubbed “Elongate,” jumped into the “Russiagate” story that has now found its way into a federal courtroom. Over the weekend, Musk called out as a “hoax” a tweet that two-time loser Hillary Clinton posted shortly before the 2016 presidential election. “Computer scientists have apparently uncovered a covert server linking the Trump Organization to a Russian-based bank,” Clinton wrote in the October 31, 2016, tweet, which included a lengthy note from one of her then-top aides, Jake Sullivan, who now serves as President Joe Biden’ national security adviser. “This could be the most direct link yet between Donald Trump and Moscow. Computer scientists have apparently uncovered a covert server linking the Trump Organization to a Russian-based bank,” Sullivan wrote. “This secret hotline may be the key to unlocking the mystery of Trump’s ties to Russia. It certainly seems the Trump Organization felt it had something to hide, given that it … [Read more...] about Musk Calls Out 2016 Hillary Clinton Tweet As ‘Campaign Hoax’ | The Daily Wire
