Everything Everywhere Daily - The Sinking of the Bismarck

Entering the second world war, Britain was still the top naval power in the world.  

While the British Navy was superior in its entirety, Nazi Germany had created a ship that terrified the British. One-on-one, it could take out any ship in the British fleet. 

Eventually, it was sent out into the open ocean of the North Atlantic to disrupt shipping. When the British found out, they dedicated almost all of their fleet in the North Atlantic to its destruction. 

Learn more about the sinking of the Bismarck on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

What A Day - Biden’s Rebound Relationship With COVID

Indiana state lawmakers on Saturday moved one step closer to banning nearly all abortions. The vote puts the state on track to be one of the first in the nation to enact new abortion restrictions after Roe V. Wade was overturned.

President Biden tested positive for COVID again over the weekend. He had one of the uncommon “rebound” cases after taking Paxlovid.

And in headlines: Ukraine’s President ordered a mass evacuation from the Donetsk Province, Boston Celtics legend Bill Russell passed away, and Donald Trump hosted the Saudi Arabia-funded LIV Golf Tournament.

The Daily Signal - Big Government Socialism Is Destroying America. Newt Gingrich Explains How You Can Save Us.

Joe Biden campaigned for president in 2020 as a practical politician with a moderate record. He promised to unite America under a Biden presidency. He even said, "There will be no blue states and red states with me." 

More than 18 months into the Biden administration, America is witnessing a radical departure from the candidate who made those promises in 2020. 

From Day One, the Biden administration pursued policies that appealed to the far left and socialists rather than working-class Americans. As a result, Americans appear more divided than ever on key questions about our country's future and the policy decisions confronting us. 

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, a bestselling author who is out with a new book, "Defeating Big Government Socialism: Saving America's Future," joins us on "The Daily Signal Podcast" today to tell us about his latest work and what's at stake. Listen to the interview or read a lightly edited transcript.
