AP fact check on gas stoves ages like fish on a dashboard in summer
But a lot of people do trust them for some reason, and that’s hilarious.
It’s funny because back in January, they did a fact-check to show that no, the Biden administration wasn’t about to ban your gas stove.
"The claim was sparked by comments from a Consumer Product Safety Commission official published Monday that “any option is on the table” when it comes to regulating gas stoves, amid growing health concerns over the appliances. In the days after, discussion online evoked images of the government dragging four-burner cooktops from homes, as social media users shared memes of gas stoves with text like, “Don’t Tread On Me.”
“I’ll NEVER give up my gas stove. If the maniacs in the White House come for my stove, they can pry it from my cold dead hands. COME AND TAKE IT!!” conservative Texas GOP Rep. Ronny Jackson said on Twitter Tuesday.
But officials insist that people’s kitchen appliances are in no danger. Here’s a closer look at the facts...
CBS MAKES A FULL 360: ‘FOLLOW THE MONEY’ TO FIND COVID ORIGINS
"...it looks like CBS Morning is finally waking up to the possibility of a lab leak...
“We’ve got new details to share with you today about an investigation into U.S. funding the Chinese research lab in the city at the center of the pandemic,” co-anchor Michelle Miller announced. “It’s raising questions about how closely past administrations were following the use of the money.”...Cutler’s findings are certainly concerning, as she discovered evidence of double billing, potential theft of government funds, and “dangerous pathogens and risky research.”
Herridge also reported that former CDC director Dr. Robert Redfield had testified to Congress that “money from multiple U.S. government agencies supported high-risk virus research in Wuhan.”...
Exclusive -- Mike Pence 'Taken Aback' by Report of Looming Trump Arrest
Dems call for more "oversight". No penalty for current, clearly complicit "regulators".-----Clarice Feldman - You Can Bank on it: A Cheat Sheet on the SVB Collapse - American Thinker
The bank officers know, or certainly should know that is the case...SVB held tens of billions of dollars in long-term government bonds. On its face, this may seem like a prudent investment for a bank, but Treasury securities are riskless only when held to maturity. If you have to sell before then, you can easily lose money if market rates have risen since you first purchased the bond. For example, buying a 10-year U.S. Treasury bond with a 2% coupon at par and holding it for 10 years earns you 2% per annum. But if you sell early and rates have jumped -- say, 4% since you bought the bond -- then the price will have declined to about $838 per $1,000 face value, meaning you incur a loss of $162 per $1,000 bond.
...But that’s not all there is to the story.

Navy secretary cited climate change as top priority as Biden proposes shrinking the fleet | Fox News
Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro said he sees fighting climate change as a top priority for the Navy as the Biden administration proposes shrinking the fleet by two ships and worries grow about how the U.S. Navy stacks up to China’s.
"As the Secretary of the Navy, I can tell you that I have made climate one of my top priorities since the first day I came into office," Del Toro said March 1 in remarks at the University of the Bahamas.
Del Toro said he met with Bahamas Prime Minister Philip Davis during his visit and spoke "at length" with him about the climate crisis and focused the bulk of his remarks on climate.
Elementary teacher celebrates confusing children who can't tell her gender: 'That's the goal' - American Wire News
“The students asked the other teacher if I’m a boy or a girl, and the teacher was like, ‘Does it matter?'”
Assenting to the teacher’s logic, the child was said to go on, “No, I just, I just can’t figure it out. It’s just so hard. I can’t figure it out.”
Having gleefully reenacted the struggle of the unidentified child, Ryan then displayed her own satisfaction with a victorious fist pump as she said, “And I was just like, yes, that’s the goal. That’s the goal.”...
Democrat gonna steal your vote...AGAIN!-----‘National Popular Vote’ scheme would let California choose Michigan’s president
- House Bill 4156 would disenfranchise Michigan voters in presidential elections
But a bill submitted in the Michigan House would change all that.
- No longer would Michigan award its electoral votes to the candidate most Michiganders vote for. Michigan’s electoral votes would be given to whichever candidate receives the most votes in what activists call “the national popular vote.”
