- "...agency suffered a major humiliation Wednesday night after it forced the evacuation of the Capitol and surrounding buildings after spotting “an aircraft that poses a probable threat.” Staff scrambled to exit the buildings in a panic, and news outlets interrupted coverage with “breaking news” bulletins about the suspicious aircraft. Roughly 15 minutes later, Capitol police backtracked and announced there was no threat; the aircraft, it turned out, was a U.S. Army plane preparing to perform a parachute stunt at the Washington Nationals baseball game.
...Pelosi and her Democratic colleagues...but deserving of billions of new dollars courtesy of American taxpayers: the U.S. Capitol Police.
- Since January 6, 2021, congressional Democrats have lavished the federal law enforcement agency with praise, medals of honor, and loads of cash to fund everything from more officers to a “Wellness and Trauma” program to help officers cope with the aftermath of the four-hour disturbance that resulted in the death of four Trump supporters.
- ...For example, Capitol Police first seeded the lie that Officer Brian Sicknick was killed in the line of duty of January 6. “At approximately 9:30 p.m. this evening, United States Capitol Police Officer Brian D. Sicknick passed away due to injuries sustained while on-duty,” the agency announced on January 7, 2021. “Officer Sicknick was responding to the riots on Wednesday, January 6, 2021, at the U.S. Capitol and was injured while physically engaging with protesters.”

The Real Reset is Coming... But Not the One the Elites Expect - American Thinker

“The ‘Real Reset’ is Coming,” As Victor Davis Hanson writes on the upcoming midterm elections.
In truth, we are about to see a radical reset – of the current reset. It will be a different sort of transformation than the elites are expecting and one that they should greatly fear. . .
In the November 2022 midterms, we are likely to see a historic “No!” to the orthodox left-wing agenda that has resulted in unsustainable inflation, unaffordable energy, war, and humiliation abroad, spiraling crime, racial hostility — as well as arrogant defiance from those who deliberately enacted these disastrous policies.
The public has been marinated in false narratives and disinformation spread by our elite ruling class and echoed by the dominant media. For example,
- climate change (more), green energy and its consequences, and
- Putin inflation.
- Then there’s the COVID-19 origin and
- authoritarian mandates fostered by the spurious meme follow the science,
- the Russian collusion narrative,
- there was no election fraud in the 2020 Election,
- voter suppression,
- wokeism, and equity-speak.
- Don’t forget gender fluidity/grooming,
- the mask mandates by woke schoolboards supported by teachers' unions,
- cops shooting Black men, and
- Critical Race Theory, including the divisive memes of White Supremacy/domestic terrorism/systemic racism and many other crises de jour...link

...They do not make electricity – they store electricity produced elsewhere, primarily by coal, uranium, natural gas-powered plants, or diesel-fueled generators. So, to say an EV is a zero-emission vehicle is not at all valid.
Also, since forty percent of the electricity generated in the U.S. is from coal-fired plants, it follows that forty percent of the EVs on the road are coal-powered, do you see?
...But that is not half of it.

Breaking: Musk Twitter Takeover Officially Underway as New 'Complex' Plan Revealed After Cryptic Tweet
Breaking: Musk Twitter Takeover Officially Underway as New 'Complex' Plan Revealed After Cryptic Tweet:
Elon Musk’s counteroffensive against Twitter may launch in less than two weeks’ time according to recent reports.
The self-made billionaire’s bid to buy the social media giant in an attempt to create a true free-speech platform was complicated when Twitter’s board, which has been known to take the opposite stance on many free-speech issues, adopted a “poison pill” policy, diluting his share of the company and, therefore, his leverage.

More States Move to Affirm Parental Rights in Education
More States Move to Affirm Parental Rights in Education:
Florida has been the center of national attention for weeks over its new Parental Rights in Education law, but it’s not alone: Across the country, state lawmakers are introducing similar legislation.
Florida’s law—inaccurately dubbed “the Don’t Say Gay law” by opponents—prohibits “classroom instruction by school personnel or third parties on sexual orientation or gender identity” to children in kindergarten through third grade or in a manner that isn’t age appropriate according to state standards.
A report by The Heritage Foundation says that other states are responding to parent dissatisfaction by increasing classroom transparency and asserting parents’ rights as decision-makers for their children. (The Daily Signal is the news outlet of The Heritage Foundation.)
“Lawmakers around the country are considering parents’ bills of rights that affirm that parents are their children’s primary caregivers, prevent schools from compelling students to affirm ideas that violate the Civil Rights Act of 1964, require schools to receive parental permission before administering health services to children, and authorize parents to view the list of books and instructional materials for K–12 classrooms,” the Heritage report reads.
In recent months, these five states—among others—have taken action to limit discussion of gender ideology in the classroom and to protect parents’ rights in K-12 education.

"...What Elon Musk appears to be doing is perhaps the biggest story that few understand.
I share this perspective having spent thousands of hours in the past several years deep in the weeds of tech operating systems, communication platforms, and the issue of simultaneous users.
What Twitter represents, and what Musk is attempting, is not what most would think.
In the big picture of tech platforms, Twitter, as an operating model, is a massive high-user commenting system.
Twitter is not a platform built around a website; Twitter is a platform for comments and discussion that operates in the sphere of social media.

As a consequence, the technology and data processing required to operate the platform does not have an economy of scale.
There is no business model where Twitter is financially viable to operate…. UNLESS the tech architecture under the platform was subsidized.
In my opinion, there is only one technological system and entity that could possibly underwrite the cost of Twitter to operate.

"WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Capitol was briefly evacuated Wednesday evening after police identified an aircraft that they said posed “a probable threat” — but the plane was actually carrying members of the U.S. Army Golden Knights, who then parachuted into Nationals Park for a pregame demonstration.
The alert from the U.S. Capitol Police sent congressional staffers fleeing from the Capitol and legislative building around 6:30 p.m.
The incident suggested a stunning communications failure between the military and the Capitol Police, all the more remarkable because of Washington’s focus on improving security since the January 6, 2021, attack on the building by supporters of then-President Donald Trump..."
