President Joe Biden’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency is deporting far fewer illegal aliens convicted of murder, kidnapping, sexual assault, and other felonies, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) data reveals.
In February 2021, Biden implemented a series of orders protecting most of the nation’s 11 to 22 million illegal aliens from arrest and deportation. The most expansive is Biden’s so-called “sanctuary country” orders that prevent ICE agents from arresting and deporting most illegal aliens — even those with criminal convictions.

Instead of having market power that allows them to control prices, these huge corporations are not able to raise prices to keep up with costs because they are competing with each other for customers.
Target was quite explicit about this. It said it had decided not to attempt to pass on higher costs to consumers because it hopes to win market share away from its rivals by maintaining a reputation for affordability.
Michael Smith "A friend said to me that the problems we face today are because we "feminized" society. I considered that for a bit and I said that I don't believe that is true. The problem is that we are a "progressivized" society. Progressivism disguises itself by cloaking itself in feminine qualities of caring, nurturing, kindness, compassion, and patience
when it actually is a mean, barren, bitter Karen who is president of the Homeowner's Association.I've experienced four women who changed my life - my maternal grandmother, my mom, my wife, and my daughter.
Not a single one of them exhibits any of the traits that are destroying our society and our culture. All four, in their own ways, are/were everything a feminine woman is thought to be.
They are reality based, independent minds - smart, resourceful, tough as nails with an edge sharper than a razor, they get things done."
“The scale of this release is unprecedented: the world has never had a release of oil reserves at this 1 million per day rate for this length of time,” the White House bragged.“This record release will provide a historic amount of supply to serve as bridge until the end of the year when domestic production ramps up.”
“The amount of crude oil in the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) dropped by 5 million barrels in the week to May 13, data from the U.S. Department of Energy showed,” Reuters reported.
“Stockpiles in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) fell to 538 million barrels, the lowest since 1987.”
Meanwhile the Biden administration gas been canceling oil and gas leases, including the potential to drill for oil in over one million acres in the Cook Inlet in Alaska.
Behind the fall of David Sabatini, 'one of the greatest scientists' of his generation.
"In 2018, David Sabatini was a world-renowned molecular biologist.
He was a tenured professor at MIT. He ran a major lab at the Whitehead Institute, overseeing a team of 39 researchers, postdocs and technicians. Their job was to disentangle the mystery of the mTOR signaling pathway, a protein Sabatini had discovered while still in medical school, at Johns Hopkins. The mTOR signaling pathway plays a critical role in tumor development. Figuring out how it works would go a long way toward saving countless lives.
This was why Sabatini was predicted to win the Nobel Prize.
It was how he reeled in between three and four million dollars every year for his lab from the National Institutes of Health, the Pentagon and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, among others. It is why his colleagues have described him to me with words like “genius,” “one of the best scientists alive,” and “a pillar.”
...Today, Sabatini is unemployed and unemployable.
No one wants to be associated with him.
Those who do risk losing their jobs, publishing opportunities, friends, visas, and huge federal grants. “What wormhole did my life take, to billionaires and protests and being called a sexual predator? What quirk in the universe allowed this to happen?” Sabatini asked me..."
