Think your utility bills are HIGH now?? Think again!-----BlackRock has finally come for our utilities - American Thinker

...unions and “clean energy” advocacy organizations have come out of the woodwork to support the BlackRock takeover... - Olivia Murray

Here’s this, from a new article by Katya Schwenk at Jacobin:

BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, has its tentacles in all facets of American life. The behemoth is buying up grocery brands, dental practices, apartment buildings, and nursing homes. But the opaque industry of private equity has mostly stayed away from electric utilities, the regulated companies that supply power to homes and businesses, because they often don’t yield quick returns.

That’s changing.
Last year, the BlackRock subsidiary Global Infrastructure Partners and a Canadian pension fund announced a $6.2 billion deal to buy Minnesota Power…

Dems Livid After Mayor Bowser Lets It Slip, Admits Trump's Policies Are Working: 

Washington, D.C., Democratic Mayor Muriel Bowser admitted that President Donald Trump’s public safety efforts caused crime to drop, but other Democrats are not thrilled by her admission.

After Trump deployed National Guard resources and started mobilizing the Metropolitan Police Department, there was a 15 percent overall drop in crime within 20 days in D.C., Bowser noted on Wednesday.

That included an 87 percent decrease in carjackings, a violent crime which has been plaguing the city for years.

As a reporter for the New Orleans Times-Picayune in 2005, James Varney was on the front lines of the newspaper’s coverage as Hurricane Katrina ravaged the city of New Orleans and the Gulf Coast region.

Initially, New Orleans appeared to have been spared the storm’s full force. 

But a natural disaster became far worse because of human error as the levees failed, unleashing catastrophic flooding, submerging large swaths of the city...

Chicago Public Schools passes budget, but deficits driven by hiring nearly 8,000 staff since 2020

Chicago Public Schools passed a $10.2 billion budget for the 2025-2026 fiscal year on a vote of 12 yes, 7 no and an abstention on Aug. 28, but left out was a controversial loan to pay the city for pensions that could have further wrecked the district’s credit rating - Bryce Hill

• While much of the conversation around district finances was centered on how to bring this year’s budget into balance with a $743 million hole in it, relatively little attention was given to how district finances devolved into massive, recurring deficits.

With billions in temporary federal aid, CPS was able to avoid projected shortfalls until 2025, when the district spent the final $233 million in pandemic-related aid...

Civics revolution: Conservatives revive traditional education with a modern twist * WorldNetDaily * by John Murawski, Real Clear Wire

Civics revolution: Conservatives revive traditional education with a modern twist * WorldNetDaily * by John Murawski, Real Clear Wire: 

The Jack Miller Center, a leading civics education provider, organized the seminar, part of a cottage industry that is reviving the tradition of studying the rights and duties of American citizenship, updated for modern sensibilities. After decades of neglect in the wake of the 1960s social upheavals and emphasis on STEM competency, civics is making a comeback. Universities are opening multimillion-dollar civics schools, some with deans and doctoral programs, and more than half the states now have civics requirements or competency tests in K-12. The boom reached a crescendo this summer with 45 states considering 198 bills related to K–12 civic education.

RFK Jr Dismisses Gun Control Calls, Will Examine Psych Drugs In Mass Shooting ‘Health Crisis’

Kennedy said HHS is investigating the mental health effects of psychiatric drugs. - Amanda

“There’s never been a time in the history of humanity where people walked into a crowd, or a church, or a movie theater, or a school, or a crowd of strangers and just started randomly shooting,” he said. 

“It’s happening in our country, it’s not happening around the world. And there are many other countries that have comparable levels [of] guns that we have in this country — we had comparable levels in the ’40s, ’50s, and ’60s and people weren’t doing that. Something changed, and it dramatically changed human behavior.”

“One of the culprits we need to examine is the fact that we’re the most overmedicated nation in the world, and a lot of those are psychiatric drugs that have blackbox warnings on them that warn of suicidal and homicidal ideation,” Kennedy added. 

“We are doing those studies right now for the first time, and we will have an answer.”...

After Trump ended the protection in a memorandum on Thursday, California officials scrambled to add new security for Harris," the report said.
