Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott announced a new statewide policy Monday banning TikTok on personal and state-issued devices for all public employees.
Abbott unveiled a new statewide security plan that bans use of TikTok and other software due to the security threat it poses to official government business, he said in a release. The governor cited the ownership of TikTok by a Chinese firm with close ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) as a reason to ban the popular vidoe sharing application.

Should We Start Preparing for the Evacuation of Miami?
- Daniel Aldana Cohen argues that planning the withdrawal from Miami would force other places to get serious about hosting climate migrants,
- while Samantha Schuyler says Miami can still become a model of adaptation.
But too much detail can distract from the bigger picture: Miami is drowning.
In 2020, a report from the (SUPER LIBERAL) climate think tank Resources for the Future declared Miami the most vulnerable major coastal city in the world.
Of course, the city’s future is uncertain—we don’t know quite how much sea-level rise we can still prevent or how well we’ll adapt in place...

Pritzker Supports Bill That Will Kill Local Control Over Wind Energy Zoning - By Kevin Bessler 
(The Center Square) – A bill that strips local control from county governments regarding zoning matters on wind and solar energy appears to be close to becoming law.
...Supporters say the measure is needed to better attain the state’s renewable energy goals.
...Supporters say the measure is needed to better attain the state’s renewable energy goals.
- Gov. J.B. Pritzker, who said he plans to sign the legislation into law, said it is needed so projects are not held “hostage” by local opponents.
- It is a reversal from remarks he made before November’s election. During a farm legislative roundtable in August, the governor was asked if he would support legislation to create statewide controls over the siting of wind and solar projects. “No, in fact I’ve specifically avoided that,” Pritzker said then...

- The downfall of capitalism will not come from the uprising of an impoverished working class but from the sabotage of a bored upper class.
"This was the view of the Austrian economist Joseph Schumpeter in 1942.
Schumpeter believed that at some point in the future, an educated elite would have nothing left to struggle for and will instead start to struggle against the very system that they themselves live in...
...Take for example a recent interview with Stanford biologist Paul Ehrlich on CBS's 60 Minutes. Ehrlich is most famous for his career as a professional doom monger.
- His first major book, The Population Bomb, gave us timelessly wrong predictions, including that by the 1980s, hundreds of millions of people would starve to death and it went downhill from there.
- Ehrlich assured us that England would no longer exist in the year 2000, that even modern fertilizers would not enable us to feed the world, and that thermonuclear power was just around the corner.
Ehrlich, who recently turned 90, is in the lucky position to have witnessed the complete failure of all his predictions—only to double down on them in his 60 Minutes interview Ehrlich has been wrong on every public policy issue he pontificated on for almost 60 years, yet the mainstream media still treat him like a modern oracle.
