3:55pm- In a recent editorial in The New York Post, Miranda Devine writes about House Oversight Committee witness Gal Luft who fled the country after being accused of being an arms dealer.

Devine states: “Luft told them about [Chinese state-controlled energy company] CEFC payments to Hunter and Jim Biden, and that Biden family associate Rob Walker was involved in distributing payments, a fact later corroborated by subpoenaed bank records released by the House Oversight Committee showing Walker funneling more than $1 million from China to at least three of President Biden’s relatives.” You can read the full editorial here: https://nypost.com/2023/05/31/missing-biden-family-corruption-probe-witness-gal-luft-speaks-out-living-as-fugitive-in-undisclosed-location/

4:20pm- The New York Post Editorial Board writes, “Rep. James Comer and House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy are dead right to hold a contempt of Congress charge over FBI honcho Christopher Wray’s head.
