Michigan secures $1.8M to fix these 172 broken EV chargers - mlive.com

"...Michigan is getting federal funds to fix or replace 172 inoperable electric vehicle chargers throughout the state.
Last week, the governor’s office announced the state secured $1.8 million in grant funding through the Electric Vehicle Charger Reliability and Accessibility Accelerator Program to fix EV charging infrastructure across 105 different locations.
The sites have already been selected. 

Many are in the Metro Detroit region, though there are sites spread throughout the state, including as far north as the Upper Peninsula’s Houghton County.
A spokesperson for the Michigan Infrastructure Office said the office does not track how these EV chargers are damaged because they are private assets. 

Selected sites are given 12 months to use the funds to fix or replace their chargers...

Governor Whitmer got a $1M re-election campaign boost from

Big Energy in 2022, and in return, she signed legislation that puts the state in control of green energy projects. Conveniently, Governor Whitmer appoints the members of the Michigan Public Service Commission, which now approves these projects. This Lansing back-scratching is why Michiganders pay 28% above the national average for electricity, but we’re ranked second in the nation for power outages. #PoorMichiganPayouts4Blackouts

Viral video of mother having healthy boy transitioned into sterile neuter prompts renewed outrage | Blaze Media: 

A video clip from an NBC News "Dateline" story about a young boy transitioned by his mother into a transvestite at the age of 6, then put on a cocktail of sterilizing chemicals just years later has gone viral once again, prompting renewed outrage about the medicalization of children and the insidious rhetoric used by sex-change advocates in support of child mutilation.

Federal Reserve Losses and Monetary Policy | American Enterprise Institute - AEI

Federal Reserve Losses and Monetary Policy | American Enterprise Institute - AEI 

• Past monetary policy decisions have resulted in the Fed suffering more than $140 billion in accumulated cash losses in addition to $1 trillion in unrealized losses on its securities portfolio. 
• The Fed System and the majority of Reserve Banks are technically insolvent on a GAAP basis. (GAAP=generally accepted accounting principles")

Fed officials claim that the Fed’s losses and negative GAAP capital do not compromise its ability to conduct monetary policy because the Fed can create money to cover its losses...

We conclude that the framework will be ignored, and the Fed will continue to operate at a loss while deeply technically insolvent as long as depositors maintain their belief that Fed deposits are protected by an implicit federal government guarantee. 

Congressional action may be needed should this confidence waiver...

15 Facts About E. Jean Carroll's Case the Media Don't Want You to Know

15 Facts About E. Jean Carroll's Case the Media Don't Want You to Know - HANNAH BLEAU KNUDSEN

"...Carroll originally came out with her story in 2019, detailing the alleged incident, claiming that Trump sexually assaulted her in a Bergdorf-Goodman dressing room in the mid-1990s: “Carroll said Trump followed her to a fitting room at the store, shoved her against a wall, pulled down her tights and, ‘forcing his fingers around my private area, thrusts his penis halfway — or completely, I’m not certain — inside me.'”

• Here are some facts about Carroll’s story that the establishment media do not want the public to know:

1. Bergdorf Goodman has no surveillance video of the alleged incident.
2. There are zero witnesses to the alleged sexual attack.
3. Carroll first came forward — conveniently — with the allegations while promoting her book What Do We Need Men For? in 2019, which featured a list of “The Most Hideous Men of My Life.”
4. Carroll was unable to remember when this alleged attack even occurred. She told her lawyer in 2023, “This question, the when, the when, the date, has been something I’ve [been] constantly trying to pin down.” She has jumped years — originally beginning with 1994, then moving to 1995, and even floating to 1996. She cannot remember the season in which the alleged attack occurred either.
5. The Donna Karan blazer dress she claims to have worn during the alleged incident was not even available at the time of her claims...

Screwing the children in order to launder money to their democrat supporters!-----Elementary school’s test scores plummet after using ‘Woke Kindergarten’ program DAVE HUBER

Elementary school’s test scores plummet after using ‘Woke Kindergarten’ program DAVE HUBER 

"There’s a group out there called “Woke Kindergarten” which, like many other (but less colorfully named) organizations gets paid (with tax dollars!) to “train” our schools’ teachers on the evils of white supremacy, racism, oppression, etc.

• Glassbrook Elementary School near San Francisco shelled out $250,000 in federal funds to Woke Kindergarten allegedly so it could “boost student achievement.”
• But two years later, student test scores have gone down according to the San Francisco Chronicle: “less than 4% of students proficient in math and just under 12% at grade level in English.”

Sick: Biden admin says causing crime, inflation, overdoses | Blaze Media: 

Skyrocketing crime rates, suffocating inflation, and rampant drug overdoses are just three of many of the United States’ most pressing concerns.

While President Biden loves to point the finger and refuse to accept responsibility, Glenn Beck, Stu Burguiere, and Pat Gray know the truth.

As for inflation, Biden likes to use businesses as a scapegoat, especially when it comes to astronomical food prices.

U.S. Navy Drops High School Diploma, GED Requirement for Recruits — What Could Possibly Go Wrong? By Mike Miller

U.S. Navy Drops High School Diploma, GED Requirement for Recruits — What Could Possibly Go Wrong? By Mike Miller

"No Diploma? No Problem! 

The U.S. Navy has again lowered enlistment requirements as it struggles to meet self-inflicted recruiting goals. 

• As reported by Navy Times on Friday, America's naval force will now allow those without a high school diploma to enlist as long as they score a 50 or higher on the Armed Forces Qualification Test that all prospects must take. 
• Those without a General Educational Development (GED) will also be allowed to enlist if they hit the test threshold, according to the Chief of Naval Personnel’s office.

The Navy is not alone in its failure to hit recruiting goals...

...Lowering standards had been recommended to the military brass in order to improve diversity metrics. As was ignoring criminal records and other issues...

...As the Heritage Foundation opined in a December 2023 article: "The military went woke.

Today's American military has fully embraced the social imperatives of the Left and the most progressive aspects of American society.

• The U.S. Air Force selects officers based on a race- and sex-based quota system for officer applicants—an affirmative action program that would make the Ivy League blush.
• In August, the U.S. Army Special Operations Command released a report on “Women in Combat”—not to analyze the effectiveness of Army Special Operations Forces, but to excoriate itself for supposed persistent bigotry.
• Earlier this year, Army officials released a memo making soldiers undergoing “gender transition” non-deployable for almost one year...

If the residents of Gaza try to get close to the Egyptian border and enter our country as refugees, they are doomed. They will die after being shot. You can enter our territory but you will return in death bags. We have no time for your boredom. They truly hate them
