"Green-energy" creates energy outages and giant price increases for all of us!-----Blackouts Loom in California as Electricity Prices Are ‘Absolutely Exploding’

Blackouts Loom in California as Electricity Prices Are ‘Absolutely Exploding’
"Two inexorable energy trends are underway in California: soaring electricity prices and ever-worsening reliability – and both trends bode ill for the state’s low- and middle-income consumers.
Last week, the state’s grid operator, the California Independent System Operator, issued a “flex alert” that asked the state’s consumers to reduce their power use “to reduce stress on the grid and avoid power outages.” 
  • CAISO’s warning of impending electricity shortages heralds another blackout-riddled summer at the same time California’s electricity prices are skyrocketing.
...According to data from the Energy Information Administration, the all-sector price of electricity in California last year jumped to 18.15 cents per kilowatt-hour, which means that Californians are now paying about 70% more for their electricity than the U.S. average all-sector rate of 10.66 cents per kWh. 
Even more worrisome: California’s electricity rates are expected to soar over the next decade. 
(More on that in a moment.)...Read all.

This isn't a joke.

 

Woman Confronts Spa After Man Exposes Himself in Locker Room - Louder With Crowder

Woman Confronts Spa After Man Exposes Himself in Locker Room - Louder With Crowder
Progressives hate women. They pretended not to when the former president was grabbing people in the no-no area and there were pink crocheted hats to sell. Then leftists found a more better marginalized group to pander to: biological men who identify as women. As biological women who identify as women see opportunity after opportunity taken from them, they're told by the left to shut up and calm down about it. They're also told to shut up and calm down when they see someone's penis flapping around in the women's locker room. At least, that's what allegedly happened in this video. The woman was pissed. As you can imagine. When you're in a women's locker room, a wiener is the last thing you'd expect to see.

Goodrich councilwoman shouldn’t have been allowed on ballot, Michigan Court of Appeals rules
GOODRICH, MI -- Sherry Ann Moore isn’t losing her seat on the Goodrich Village Council, but the Michigan Court of Appeals says she should never have been allowed to run for the job in first place.
In a published opinion Thursday, June 24, the Appeals Court said Genesee Circuit Court Judge Mark W. Latchana erred when he issued a writ of mandamus, ordering the Genesee County Election Commission to allow Moore to amend required paperwork she filed to appear on the ballot after the deadline for making such changes had passed in 2020...Read all!

Foster Child to School Board: 'What Exactly Is My Privilege?' - Louder With Crowder

Foster Child to School Board: 'What Exactly Is My Privilege?' - Louder With Crowder
Videos like this are helpful and necessary. Hopefully, it encourages others to speak out about what's going on in their local government. Parents tend to get angry when you come after their kids. It's getting to be a time where we take the camera off the speakers and put them on the school board members listening. Have them explain if they feel bad at all over what they're putting students like this brave girl through. Force them to have to explain what education value these various examples of rebranded Marxism they want to indoctrinate student with have.

Profs declare correct grammar is racist, no such thing as standard English at symposium

Campus Reform | ACADEMICALLY SPEAKING: Profs declare correct grammar is racist, no such thing as standard English at symposium
  • Towson University hosted a virtual symposium to discuss anti-racist teaching practices.
  • One professor argued that "correct grammar" and "standard language" only "reinforce master narratives of English."
"Speakers at Towson University's virtual "Antiracist Pedagogy Symposium" criticized university writing curriculum and programs for being racist and perpetuating Whiteness. 
...April Baker-Bell, associate Professor of Language, Literacy, and English Education at Michigan State University, argued that idea of Standard English among teachers is used to maintain racist assumptions about "Black language."
Bell stated it is evident that "anti-Blackness that is used to diminish black language of Black students in classrooms is not separate from the rampant and deliberate anti-black racism and violence inflicted upon black people in society."...Read all.

Pinkerton: Ron DeSantis Shows Republicans How to Win by Fighting for Americanism Against Wokeism

On June 22, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed into law three bills to strengthen civics education in the Sunshine State. As De Santis said at the signing ceremony, “The sad reality is that only two in five Americans can correctly name the three branches of government, and more than a third of Americans cannot name any of the rights guaranteed by the First Amendment.” And so, he concluded, “It is abundantly clear that we need to do a much better job of educating our students in civics to prepare them for the rest of their lives.”

How cable news will inevitably politicize the Surfside building tragedy - The Spectator World
"...By day three or four, perhaps earlier, the media and political adversaries will start pointing fingers. 
The key figure here is Florida’s Republican governor, Ron DeSantis, who could run for president in 2024.
He is currently considered a leading candidate because his state is gaining people, growing economically and performed so well during the pandemic, especially because of DeSantis’s attention to nursing homes.
Save yourself some time. If you spend a few minutes a day reading the story on your favorite news site, you can avoid the endless noise and find out the real information about this tragedy.
  • CNN, MSNBC and the legacy print media will look for some way to pin the building collapse on DeSantis since he is from the wrong party and could run against their favorite party in three years. If they can’t find a plausible way to pin the collapse directly on him, they will try the next best thing. They will declare that Florida, like all Republican states, does far too little to protect public safety. This building collapse, they will say, is just another example. ‘That’s the real scandal here.’ 
  • In rebuttal, Fox and the New York Post will say Gov. DeSantis is not responsible in any way, that his efforts after the disaster are a model for the nation and that we should all hope our children grow up to be just like Ron DeSantis. 
It will all sound very stupid...Read all.

New Harvard Data (Accidentally) Reveal How Lockdowns Crushed the Working Class While Leaving Elites Unscathed - Foundation for Economic Education

So, all lockdowns really seem to have accomplished is at best a mild delay in the pandemic’s trajectory in exchange for a host of lethal unintended consequences such as a mental health crisis and skyrocketing drug overdoses. And, as we now know, a highly regressive economic fallout for the working class.Of course, Ivy League researchers almost certainly did not intend to expose the failings of big government pandemic policies when they set out to catalog employment data. But, as Adams said, facts are stubborn things. 

Seems he was right.


 

With Its Power Grid Under Pressure, California Asks Residents to Avoid Charging Electric Vehicles

"Amid a West Coast heat wave that includes triple-digit temperatures, California’s power grid operators have called on residents to not use as much electricity so as to put less strain on the state’s beleaguered grid.
In the past week, the California Independent System Operator (ISO) told residents several times to voluntarily conserve energy, including asking them on social media to stop charging their electric vehicles (EVs) during peak usage times.
 The operator also warned users to “[avoid] use of large appliances and turning off extra lights.”...Read all.

Four Biden proposals would dole out taxpayer money based on critical race theory | Washington Examiner

Four Biden proposals would dole out taxpayer money based on critical race theory | Washington Examiner

"What happens when you mix toxic critical race theory with progressive economics? Thanks to President Joe Biden, we may soon find out.

Under Democratic leadership, the federal government is rolling out numerous race-based economic initiatives that explicitly dole out taxpayer money along racially discriminatory lines. 

Here are four examples, as identified by Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty attorney Dan Lennington.

  1. A nearly $10 billion Treasury Department mortgage-assistance initiative plans explicitly to favor “socially disadvantaged individuals,” essentially defined as nonwhite people, in assigning the funds.
  2. A $1 billion Department of Agriculture initiative targeting “socially disadvantaged farmers” would specifically dole out taxpayer money “based on race and ethnicity.
  3. Another USDA program would spend up to $400 million to buy food from “local, regional, and socially disadvantaged farmers,” with “socially disadvantaged” once again basically standing in for “non-white.”
  4. A $10 billion Small Business Administration credit program intends to emphasize funding businesses with nonwhite ownership.

There are too many problems with this race-based approach to federal spending to count.

For one, the legality and constitutionality of these openly discriminatory government schemes are highly dubious. Some race-based government programs such as affirmative action have, unfortunately, been upheld by courts in the past. However, a federal appeals court ordered a halt to a similar Biden administration initiative that allocated COVID-19 relief funds based on race.
