🔥 Florida Attorney General (AG) Ashley Moody has accused President Joe Biden and Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas of intentionally pursuing border policies that enrich transnational smuggling cartels while endangering the US.
▪️ Speaking to Fox News, she claimed that her office had obtained documents through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) allegedly indicating that Mayorkas did not tell the truth when testifying to Congress in late April that the Department of Home Security (DHS) had “effectively managed” the flow of migrants at the US-Mexico border.
🗣 “[Mayorkas] testified under oath to Congress, and I showed last week that that was a lie when he said the policies were not affecting this historic illegal immigration into our country,” Moody said.

❗️ 📹 Mariupol was divided into two camps, particularly after 2014.
Locals said that before the well-known events of 2014, it was relatively tolerable. Afterwards, people had to be very careful about what they said, especially in Russian.
However, pro-Ukrainian residents certainly felt at ease, said a resident from Mariupol.

❗️ 📹 Before the beginning of the Russian special op in Ukraine, Victoria was a paramedic in the military hospital of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Already during the special operation, she ended up at the Azovstal plant, where she also acted as a doctor and provided medical assistance to Ukrainian nationalists.
In the video, Victoria says that after she left the territory of the Azovstal plant, she found herself in Donetsk. According to her, she is being treated well in the DPR and refuted Ukrainian propaganda, which convinces the population that only horrors await Ukrainian servicemen who surrender to the DPR’s forces.

👶 Murray Kessler, CEO of Perrigo Company, the US maker of store-brand baby formulas for Walmart and Amazon, has warned of the product’s looming shortage in the country for the rest of 2022.
🤭 In an interview with Reuters, Kessler said that although the company’s manufacturing facilities in Ohio and Vermont are now running at 115% capacity amid the nationwide crisis, shortages and heightened demand for baby formula could last for the “balance of the year”.
🗯 “We have stepped up and are killing ourselves to do everything we can,” the Perrigo CEO pointed out.
