1) McCarthyLast week, I asked Devin Nunes, the Ranking Member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence to investigate several serious questions regarding the National Security Agency that have so far gone unanswered.
2) McCarthy: In addition to congressional oversight being stonewalled, there was a public report that the NSA read the private communications of Tucker Carlson, a Fox News host.
3) McCarthy: Today’s additional reporting on this issue raises serious questions about the NSA’s practices as it relates to American citizens. Ranking Member Nunes will initiate a thorough and aggressive investigation on behalf of the American people.
4) McCarthy: Our liberties are preserved by the Constitution, the document creating the freest country in the world. Congressional Republicans will make sure our privacy and civil liberties are not sacrificed in the name of national security.

A) U.S. Ambassador to Haiti Michele Sison briefed lawmakers/aides by phone about the security and political situation in Haiti today

There is a lot of concern about Americans in the country. American Airlines is flying three flights. JetBlue and Spirit resume flights Saturday.
B) The Colombian Justice Minister is traveling to Haiti Saturday because it is believed that former Colombian military troops may have participated. The DHS investigation team is assisting.
C) Fox is told there is starting to be some worry about security at the U.S. Embassy in Port-au-Prince. About 40 people were at the Embassy yesterday. But now 500 people are there. Many who are gathering are the families of police officers who are worried about their own safety.

1) Fox has learned that the Capitol fence, encircling the immediate perimeter of the U.S. Capitol will come down starting July 8.
2) Officials installed a two layers of fencing blocking off the Capitol shortly after the January 6 riot. Officials removed the larger perimeter of fencing in the spring. But the inner fence remained..
3) That said, Fox is told there are questions as to whether the U.S. Capitol Police have the resources to protect the Capitol. Many officers have left or remain injured. Morale remains very low after the riot.

A) GOP GA Rep Greene: For the last 6 years, Democrats have called Republicans: Nazis, Fascists, White Supremacists, and Enemies of the State. It’s absurd Democrats accuse me of creating an environment of harassment for speaking at a Trump rally and defining them as who they are:
B) Greene:
Communists.

The truth is...

Cori Bush harassed me and it’s on video, then lied to get a bigger office.

Marie Newperson harassed me with a taunting video about her adult son.

The Democrat delegate from Guam harassed me by using the Nat'l Guard a
C) Greene: I receive constant harassment in public caused by the Democrat lies promoted by the media.

Democrats singled me out and kicked me off committees for doing nothing wrong, and the death threats haven’t stopped since.

A) Pelosi to Dems: One year into the devastation of the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln sent a message to Congress, imploring Members to join as one to save the union.
B) Pelosi: “Fellow citizens, we cannot escape history,” Lincoln said. “We of this Congress and this administration will be remembered in spite of ourselves. No personal significance, or insignificance, can spare one or another of us.”
C) Pelosi: Today, we have such a responsibility. And we too cannot escape history. We have the duty, to the Constitution and the Country, to find the truth of the January 6th Insurrection and to ensure that such an assault on our Democracy cannot happen again.

A) McConnell: The President has appropriately delinked a potential bipartisan infrastructure bill from the massive, unrelated tax-and-spend plans that Democrats want to pursue on a partisan basis.
B) McConnell: Now I am calling on President Biden to engage Leader Schumer and Speaker Pelosi and make sure they follow his lead.
C) McConnell: Unless..Schumer..&..Pelosi walk-back their threats that they will refuse to send the president a bipartisan infrastructure bill unless they also separately pass trillions of dollars..then President Biden’s walk-back of his veto threat would be a hollow gesture.

1) There is a lot to fillet from today’s events on the bipartisan infrastructure plan.

First this is very fragile. There is no bill next. There is a broad set of principles and pay-fors. We probably won’t start to see formal legislative text until early July if not later.
2) This is a general framework.

But the sides are trying to make this work.

President Biden made a point of making a rare appearance in the White House driveway today with the coalition of bipartisan senators. He wanted to show that he was all-in with their deal
3) This was not a soundbite. This was a “sight byte.” A sight byte is more powerful. And Mr. Biden was sending a message to Democrats and Republicans by visually showing he supported this plan.
