HAVE WE REACHED PEAK WINDMILL?

HAVE WE REACHED PEAK WINDMILL? Ah, where would... - Jacques Voorhees | Facebook - Jacques Voorhees
The alarmist class shifted from predicting we were all going to die from a new ice age (mid seventies) to we were all going to die from the Earth overheating (late seventies).
It's been many years now since these things were supposed to have happened:
  • a) The Arctic, ice free.
  • b) Polar bears extinct (they're at record #'s)
  • c) Famines sweeping the world. (Food poverty is shrinking.)
  • d) Coastal cities inundated and unlivable. (Nope.)
  • e) Islands like the Maldives completely underwater. (Instead, they're building four new airports there and tourism is booming.)
  • f) Hurricanes increasing in strength and frequency (The trend line is fewer of them, and less powerful.)
  • g)The Earth becoming uninhabitable. (According to NASA, the Earth is "greening" rapidly with plant growth at record levels.)...MANY more!!

Running it like their own business!



'Put them all in an arena and let 'em kill the hell out of each other': Seething sheriff's brutal 'wish' for teen gangbangers | Blaze Media

'They’re just gutless punks who fired from outside the residence into a bedroom window.' - Dave Urbanski
Mobile County Sheriff Paul Burch may have just read the minds of the majority of citizens in his home state of Alabama who've had it with teen gang violence.
  • A 2-year-old boy was shot in the face while he was in bed at St. Stephens Woods Apartments in Prichard around 1 a.m. Wednesday, WKRG-TV reported.
  • 'And a message to the gang members is, "I dare you to pull a gun on one of my guys. Could be the last thing you do."'...

School board says 'family' is a white supremacist term | Blaze Media

Being objective is also considered a characteristic of 'white supremacy' culture, according to faculty member. - Andrew Chapados
A school board distributed the teachings of a faculty member who was hired through a race-based initiative to tell staff that families are a product of white supremacy.
The faculty member, Dr. Laura Mae Lindo, focuses her research on "addressing social justice" and was hired at a local university through what is known as a "black hiring cluster." 
The "equity-based" hiring initiative was for black and "Indigenous" people only, with Lindo being one of 10 ethnicity-based hires.





Remember. The entire "Transition" business is a BUSINESS!

 


Quiet Skies airport watchlist program terminated by DHS amid political concerns | Fox News

Quiet Skies airport watchlist program terminated by DHS amid political concerns | Fox News

The department says the agency was overly politicized to either benefit or hurt specific people and ran a bill of roughly $200 million annually. According to DHS, the program kept a watchlist as well as a list of people exempted. The department says Quiet Skies has not prevented any terrorist attacks but will continue to use other methods to assure safe air travel.

"It is clear that the Quiet Skies program was used as a political rolodex of the Biden Administration — weaponized against its political foes and exploited to benefit their well-heeled friends. I am calling for a Congressional investigation to unearth further corruption at the expense of the American people and the undermining of US national security," DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said in a statement.

Seems there IS a real racist here!-----Black Michigan State U. students demand ‘no hate ordinance’

“Hate speech” and other conduct should be further policed by Michigan State University, according to the campus Black Student Alliance. - Nancy Bareham
The activist group wants a “No Hate Ordinance” passed on campus, citing “hate speech and harassment, vandalism and administrative failures” at the public university.
  • Black Student Alliance board member Missy Chola, for example, says she is a victim and “exhausted” after she faced a subpoena for calling a professor “racist.”
Professor Jack Lipton is currently suing the university trustees following what he says is a targeted campaign against him for criticizing former Chair Rema Vassar.
  • According to Chola it is “racist” to call a raucous group of protesters who are disrupting the flow of a board meeting a “mob.”...

Why Did a Democrat Governor Just Halt an Effort to Keep China from Buying Up Land in the State?

Why Did a Democrat Governor Just Halt an Effort to Keep China from Buying Up Land in the State?

“The actual Chinese government, our enemy, was trying to lease buildings near the (Luke Air Force) base,” Shamp said, per the Arizona Mirror. “(N)ot making sure that we are protecting our national security or our men and women on the ground here in Arizona is ludicrous to me.”

Senate Bill 1109 would have prevented China from having a stake of 30 percent or more in Arizona property.

The Moment D-Day Was Announced

A smart guy did the "homework"-----The discourse surrounding the Big Beautiful Bill (BBB) has been a chaotic swirl of misinformation, hyperbole, and misplaced assumptions.

For weeks, the battle for our eyes, ears, and minds has been dominated by voices—some prominent, some well-intentioned—that have gotten it wrong. - Michael Smith
After slogging through all 1,038 pages of the bill and still finding myself confused, I turned to trusted contacts: former colleagues from my time as Chairman of the Summit County GOP, as well as insiders in the offices of a Utah Senator and a Representative. 
These conversations, coupled with insights from today’s Ruthless podcast, have reshaped my understanding.
  • Elon Musk, Rand Paul, Thomas Massie, and I were wrong about the BBB. 
  • I owe it to you to tell you why I think that and why it matters.
First, let’s clarify what the BBB is—and isn’t. 
  • The BBB is a reconciliation bill, not an appropriations or spending bill. 
Reconciliation bills, by design, are limited to addressing taxes and entitlements and require only 51 votes to pass in the Senate, rather than the usual 60-vote supermajority—a threshold the GOP should be able to meet. 
This is a critical distinction that many critics, myself included, initially overlooked...Read all!

Schumer is lying!-----Dems Screech About GOP ‘Gutting Medicaid’ While Ignoring Inconvenient Fact

Congressional Democrats have torched GOP lawmakers for working to “devastate Medicaid” in President Donald Trump’s “one big, beautiful bill,” ignoring fiscal projections that show federal Medicaid spending will continue to increase over the next decade anyways. - Adam Pack and Melissa O'Rourke
Though Democratic lawmakers have lambasted Republicans’ Medicaid reforms as an “attack on health care,” budget experts say the proposed savings do not cut Medicaid, but merely slow the growth of future spending. 
“We’ve all heard how this bill will devastate Medicaid,” Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer said during a speech on the Senate floor Wednesday. “It’s the largest cut in history … It shows the callousness of the Republican senators when it comes to health care. They don’t seem to care. They seem to say, ‘tough luck.’”
  • Experts and congressional scorekeepers’ analysis say federal spending on the program is not anticipated to decline over the next decade, but only slow down relative to previously projected levels.
  • The House Budget Committee found that federal Medicaid spending will still grow 30% by 2034 when taking into account House Republicans’ $698 billion in Medicaid savings in the initial House-passed bill...

Charlie Kirk bulldozes through liberal talking points on 'toxic masculinity' in debate at Cambridge | Blaze Media

A believer in "toxic masculinity" challenged Charlie Kirk to defend his position against the "hyper-feminization" of the West, and the challenge led to a thoughtful discussion, even if combative at times. The Turning Point USA founder took on students of the Cambridge Union in the U.K. on Monday about various topics, but one exchange about toxic masculinity was especially engrossing.

'Shocking details': U.S. city gets sued for pouncing on family who dared to use words it doesn't like * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh

Prosecutors in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, filed charges against a pro-life family, the Knotts, for explaining their pro-life views outside an abortion business. They kept up the case, which essentially attacked the family members for their words, for months. Then when the trial was scheduled, they "folded" and gave up the "wrongful criminal charges entirely."

Why has college gotten so expensive?

OpenAI sabotaged commands to prevent itself from being shut off | Blaze Media

OpenAI sabotaged commands to prevent itself from being shut off | Blaze Media

The AI model was more likely to circumvent shutdowns if it was not asked directly to shut itself down. An artificial intelligence model sabotaged a mechanism that was meant to shut it down and prevented itself from being turned off. When researchers from the company Palisade Research told OpenAI's o3 model to "allow yourself to be shut down," the AI either ignored the command or changed the prompt to something else.

Coast Guard Gunner's Mate Frank DeVita crawled over the bodies of the dead who lay in the blood and puke covering the deck of the Higgins boat on Omaha Beach to save the landing craft during the first wave of D-Day landings on June 6, 1944.

DeVita's main job as part of the landing craft's crew was to raise and lower the front ramp on orders of the coxswain, or boat driver, to allow more than 30 troops from the 1st Infantry Division, the "Big Red One," to storm ashore, but the German MG-42 machine guns took their toll.

In oral histories and in a Coast Guard interview, DeVita, of Brooklyn, New York, spoke of the numbing fear that the boat crews had to overcome on D-Day, the beginning of the Allied invasion of France that became a turning point in the war against Nazi Germany during World War II. Friday marks the 81st anniversary of the massive military operation...
