The "rest of the story"!-----50% Tariffs and the USA-Canada Trade War
Most press reports leave out the other details – the actual reasons for the action, and the fact that this only applies to about 5% of American imports from Canada, not to everything we import. - John F. Di Leo
...over the past year and a half, Canada has engaged in discriminatory practices against the USA in several specific ways.
- All but two Canadian provinces have instituted official boycotts against American liquor...
- And the national government in Ottawa has implemented specific discriminatory rules on automotive manufacturing ...
- Finally, Canada has been unrelenting in its punitive dairy quotas...
- On top of these specific discriminatory practices, the Canadian government has also internally endorsed the practice of illegal transshipment – that is, the use of Canada as a middleman to route Chinese steel to the U.S. market, deceptively described in order to bypass the USA’s anti-China tariffs...
Wood Pellets Power Europe As Continent Takes A Giant Step Backward
When most Americans think about “green power” and Europe, they conjure up pictures of wind turbines and solar panels producing emission-free power. - Stephen Heins
- The truth, however, is that Europe makes more energy from wood than it does wind and solar.
- Policymakers around the world, including the United States, have declared that burning wood to generate electricity is not a climate threat, but a “green” power solution.
- In Europe, “biomass power,” is counted and subsidized as zero-emissions renewable energy.
As a result, European utilities import millions of metric tons of wood from U.S. forests every year, and Europe’s utilities generate more energy from burning wood than from wind and solar combined...

What could possibly go wrong?-----Only in Los Angeles: Taxpayer-Funded 'Sexual Relief Clinics' for the Homeless
We often think California cannot get any crazier. Nearly every month, it proves us wrong. - Dmitri BoltFollow @_bolt_dmitriEarlier this month, a private citizen used public comment at a Los Angeles City Council meeting to propose “sexual relief clinics” for homeless people, spaces where they could pleasure themselves or have consensual sex rather than engage in such behavior on public streets...
"I'd like to propose that Los Angeles consider a pilot program for free hygienic sexual relief clinics, primarily serving the homeless and unhoused," the speaker suggested. "This means equality, it means private sexual relief through masturbation or where appropriate and consensual with a partner, all funded by public tax dollars and managed with professional oversight."No city official has adopted or formally pursued the proposal.
Still, the mere fact that the program was suggested captures a familiar California instinct...

"The number one thing people need to understand about Los Angeles in particular and California in general is that they've codified all of their shenanigans," she explained. "What normal people consider cheating or weirdness in the electoral process? It's all in the rules [here]."
I recently joined Bill O’Reilly to discuss President Trump’s principal foreign-policy challenges: Iran, Ukraine, and the rather unnecessary trade friction with Canada.
On Iran, the President has settled on the correct strategic formula. - Conrad Black
- No American boots on the ground, an ironclad commitment that Tehran will never acquire nuclear weapons, a serious effort to end its sponsorship of terrorist proxies, and an airtight blockade that is already costing the regime roughly half a billion dollars a day...
What is required now is clearer, more consistent public messaging of the sort Roosevelt, Truman, Kennedy, and Nixon delivered at critical moments—straight talk that rallies the country rather than oscillating between apocalyptic threats and premature talk of agreements...

"The creation of the NFDC marks a decisive shift in how the federal government detects and investigates complex fraud," said Assistant Attorney General Colin McDonald of the division.
"By breaking down institutional silos, embedding analysts from across the IG community, and leveraging shared technology, the NFDC is actively closing the window of opportunity for bad actors who seek to exploit taxpayer dollars," McDonald said. "If you defraud federal programs, we have the tools and the law enforcement partners to find you."

The decision was based around officials' examination of a 1,000-signature sample.
- The campaign needed 629 signatures in the sample to be deemed valid to be certified for the ballot.
- It wasn't clear where the tally ended up, but it was at 626 valid signatures, three short of the threshold, during much of the meeting.
Houskamp and Paul Cordes, another Republican, voted to qualify the proposal for the ballot.
But the two Democratic members, Mary Ellen Gurewitz and Heather Cummings, supported rejecting certification, leaving it one vote short...
