Here are seven important stories that got buried under the Trump indictment buzz.<\/p>\n<h2>1. House Weaponization Hearing<\/h2>\n<p>The Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government held a hearing related to Missouri v. Biden. The plaintiffs sued the Biden administration and several individual defendants for their alleged violation of the First Amendment. However, this hearing provided even more disturbing information about the Censorship Complex.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Chinese Spy Balloon<\/h2>\n<p>Despite the Biden administration&#8217;s efforts to prevent it, a Chinese spy balloon reportedly gathered intelligence from numerous sensitive American military sites. This revelation contradicts the administration&#8217;s earlier claim that the device had little value for intelligence collection.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Global Border Crisis<\/h2>\n<p>A leaked Customs and Border Protection document reveals that the Biden administration expects more illegal crossings of Chinese nationals from Mexico. The situation is expected to escalate further, as Border Patrol agents encountered over 4,200 illegal migrants from China between October 2022 and February 2023.<\/p>\n<h2>4. OPEC Oil Cuts<\/h2>\n<p>Saudi-led oil cartel OPEC+ decided to cut oil production, causing oil prices to increase by $5 per barrel. This move should concern the Biden administration, given that its policies have given OPEC+ the power to push oil prices higher, further affecting America&#8217;s middle class.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Dumping the U.S. Dollar\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p>India and Malaysia decided to move away from the U.S. dollar and settle their international trade in Indian rupees. Similarly,\u00a0China and Brazil will trade directly with their own currencies, bypassing the U.S. dollar. The move is due to the Ukraine crisis.<\/p>\n<h2>6. Russia\u2019s Arrest of American Journalist<\/h2>\n<p>Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich&#8217;s detention by Russia represents the first time an American journalist has been arrested since the end of the Cold War. It also signifies the heightening tensions between the US and Russia and reminds us of the controversial deal the Biden administration had made with Vladimir Putin.<\/p>\n<h2>7. Murder of Russian Blogger<\/h2>\n<p>Russian military blogger Vladlen Tatarsky was killed at a caf\u00e9 in St. Petersburg, with Russia blaming Ukraine for his murder. A Ukrainian presidential adviser claims that Tatarsky was killed because he had criticized aspects of the Russian military operations in Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>These stories display how government and big tech can manipulate news when they wish to further some perceived American interest. While the media is consumed by the &#8220;get Trump&#8221; circus, we must hope that there will still be a country left by the time the Democrats call it quits.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-author-description fst-italic\">\n\t\tMargot Cleveland is The Federalist&#8217;s senior legal correspondent.
