Here’s how Progressives want the poor to live. Mamdani style.
So, if poor and need housing, Mamdani has the perfect place. A Bronx apartment building New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani showcased to highlight the talents of his new housing commissioner has accumulated almost 200 unresolved violations — including citations for broken doors, broken refrigerators, rat and roach infestation, and potentially hazardous mold.
So why can’t California Progressives manage money?
They get an extra billion, they spend two. Extra five billion they spend ten. Year in year out the revenue rises. And year in year out they spend more. Why? Simple answer is that it’s not their money is the way they look at it. So, what happens when the billionaires all flee? The middle class is already taxed to the max.
Venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya says California’s proposed billionaire tax is accelerating an exodus of ultra-wealthy residents, a shift he argues will worsen and not solve the state’s budget deficit.
Palihapitiya, who has been tracking capital flight from the Golden State, said California has so far lost an estimated $1 trillion.
No Virginia, You’re not a boy.
The Supreme Court will be hearing a case that hopefully settles the great question What comes first? The Hen or the egg. Actually, should transgender boys be allowed to compete on girls’ sports teams? But you can’t really answer this question without asking a more important one: Can a young boy or a girl actually change genders?
US Trade Deficit Falls to Lowest Level in 17 Years.
If CBS and the rest of the media is correct, The overall trade gap plunged 39% to $29.4 billion in October, as imports fell by 3.2%, Department of Commerce figures show. The deficit was significantly lower than the $58.4 billion median forecast from surveys of economists by Dow Jones Newswires and The Wall Street Journal.
More good news. U.S. exports rose by $7.8 billion in October to $302 billion, imports dropped by $11 billion to $331.4 billion. The U.S. trade deficit in September was $48.1 billion.
“Swings in trade of gold and pharmaceuticals were behind the plunge in the trade deficit to a two-decade low in October, though higher computer imports suggest there are genuine signs of strength elsewhere in the economy amid the AI buildout,” Bradley Saunders, North America economist with Capital Economics, said in a report.
What went wrong? Ford and others Scrap Major EV Plans.
A weak demand, high costs, policy reversals, and unprofitable models forced Ford, GM, Stellantis, Mercedes, and others to cancel or delay major EV plans.
I think that the Biden Administration led the auto companies to believe that the free ride would never end. Well, it came crashing down. Now the way is hybrids and gasoline powered engines.
For those who don’t know how the law works. No Congressional approval needed.
You have crackpots out there claiming Congress needed to give their approval. Yeah so they could go and warn their Progressive ally. Well just like Obama didn’t get approval for assassinating American citizens and killing Obama, Trump did not need to go to Congress. Turley agrees with me.
George Washington University Law Professor Jonathan Turley is not a conservative, but he is an honest and very smart man. Since the news of Maduro’s capture by the U.S. Military under Trump this morning, he has been pointing out that Trump did not need approval from congress to do this, despite what Democrats are claiming now.
Ninth says you can carry those Nevada bought guns.
A few years back a certifiable loon from California said that California needs strict gun laws because criminals buy most of their guns in Nevada and then come back to California and commit crimes with those Nevada laws. Well since 1967 California had a law against open carrying loaded guns. Of all people Governor Regan signed it into law. Then in 2012 The law added unloaded guns to the law. And since 2012?
Gun deaths and gun homicides have increased in California since 2012, with a clear upward trend in both total firearm deaths and firearm homicide rates. Anywhere from 12% to 53% depending on the crime. From domestic violence to homicide. Oh, those bad Nevada guns.
Friday things changed. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals cited a 2022 Supreme Court ruling and said California’s ban on open carry is unconstitutional.
So far 85 Somalians have been charged, 60 convicted or pled guilty.
37 Pled guilty of fraud, there were 13 others who were also charged. So, 98 folks that we know of ripped off the federal government. And how many folks have been charged with state crimes? Remember the Governor and the AG both said investigations have been ongoing. The grand total of state charges is Zero.
So, who’s watching leftist TV?
We’ve had a year of Trump derangement syndrome on the two largest leftist cable channels and what we are seeing is that more folks have turned to Conservative news media. MS NOW prime-time viewers dropped 27 percent during the past year. And CNN’s fell 16 percent.
Total Conservative TV grew by 25%. Led by FOX with 14% of that. Newsmax and NewsNation take the other 11%,
