Dennis Kucinich is ready for another run at the job he last held nearly 42 years ago. On Monday afternoon in Tremont, the 74-year-old Kucinich announced that he will run for Cleveland mayor. "I am ready from day one to take the city in a new, upbeat, can-do direction," he said during his remarks. Kucinich mostly focused on crime in his announcement, pledging to add 400 new officers to the Cleveland Division of Police along with two new helicopters. "We must send a message loud and clear to violent felons: A strengthened Cleveland police force will pursue you. You cannot escape. You will be caught. You will face justice."

42 years hasn't been long enough to forget how screwed up he had things last time around. Thanks for the thought, though.

I tend to believe that age does tend to result in wisdom, and that all of us have the right to be smarter today than we were yesterday. I hope that is true for Kucinich. But, I am older than he is, and my wisdom developed over the decades tells me that you can NEVER trust what a democrat politician tells you. Sorry, Dennis, but your stuff just doesn't flush.

After we have witnessed what democrats have done to our cities in the past couple years, why would anyone vote for them? Democrats destroy. It is their nature to tear down. Just take a look around and you will see their legacies in San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, Los Angeles, Chicago, Minneapolis, St. Louis, Columbus, Dayton, New York City, Washington DC, Atlanta, etc. Only a fool would vote for that. However, with the help of Dominion, an actual vote may not be necessary. Go away Dennis, the Buckeye State deserves better than what you have to offer.

he must be running out of graft money either that or, his pension from the city is threatened. the people of Cleveland are saved though, Geraldo Rivera lives there now, should be very interesting to see how kucinich does in the election, just make sure there are no Dominion voting machines in operation in the city.

Full Truck Alliance Co., an Uber-like trucking startup, is looking to raise as much as $1.57 billion in a initial public offering, which would make it one of the biggest U.S. listings by a Chinese company this year. The firm, backed by investors including SoftBank Group Corp. and Tencent Holdings Ltd., is offering 82.5 million American depositary shares for $17 to $19 apiece, according to a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. There is a concurrent private placement in which the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan Board and Mubadala will each purchase $100 million worth of Class A ordinary shares.

This is an old problem with a critical new urgency in the age of critical race theory. Jews may be the target of a disproportionate amount of hate crimes, but they're not an official minority. As critical race theory rolls out in organizations, people are pressured into joining segregated groupings. Official minorities go to minority Oppressed Victim caucuses, while designated white people go to the White People are Evil Oppressors and Must Apologize Every Day for Their Existence caucuses. And that means the descendants of Holocaust survivors being told they're guilty of white supremacy. That's how things went over at Stanford.

Florida K-12 public schools to require

Students in every K-12 public school in Florida will soon be able to observe a moment of silence at the start of each school day, if they so choose. Gov. Ron DeSantis on Monday signed HB 529 into law, which requires teachers in first-period classrooms in all K-12 public schools to set aside at least one minute, but no more than two minutes every day "for a moment of silence." During that time, "students may not interfere with other students' participation." In addition, "a teacher may not make suggestions as to the nature of any reflection that a student may engage in during the moment of silence."

Pet food companies are swapping meat proteins for that of insects in a bid to reduce your cat or dog’s environmental impact or carbon pawprint. Big name brands like Nestle Purina and Mars have recently joined the move by using dried black soldier fly larvae, while other companies, such as Jiminy’s, use cricket protein. The shift aims to reduce the 64 million tons of carbon dioxide that is emitted each year from producing and the consumption of meat-based products. Some companies say their insect farms only generate four percent of the current emissions released each year by farms that maintain cows, pigs and chickens.

Kamala Harris' problem isn't race or gender though those are the two excuses that she and her supporters have brought out to explain everything from her humiliating failure in the primaries to her humiliating failure on the world stage during her big international trip. But aside from her self-inflicted problems, and there are many of those, Kamala has no constituency. Joe Biden has black voters, but he picked Kamala as a sop to the party's minority base even though she wasn't able to woo black voters away from him during the primary. Strategically that's exactly why he picked her.

Ohio physicians, hospitals and health insurance companies could refuse to provide or pay for a medical service if it violates their moral beliefs, under language inserted into the state budget bill this week. The new language would also give medical practitioners immunity from lawsuits for refusing such and allow them to sue others. Abortion rights and LGBTQ advocates sounded the alarm this week, fearing more restricted access to reproductive health care and more discrimination. Those on the other side hailed the measure as essential for protecting religious freedoms.

A school board member called on graduating high school students to remember 'jihad' at their commencement as she warned they were entering a world of, 'racism, extreme versions of individualism and capitalism, [and] white supremacy.' Abrar Omeish, the sole Muslim member on the Fairfax County School Board, in Virginia, addressed the graduating students of Justice High School on June 7. In English, she told them that: 'The world sees the accolade, the diploma, the fruit of all your years yet be reminded of the detail of your struggle.' But when she repeated the speech in Arabic, she told students to remember their 'jihad' - meaning holy war.

Former President Donald Trump delivered a strong message against China on Saturday, blaming the country for the coronavirus pandemic. The former president spoke about China in a speech to North Carolina Republicans, demanding that China pay “reparations” to the world for the devastation caused by the pandemic. “We should all declare with one unified voice that China must pay. They must pay,” Trump said as the crowd cheered and applauded. He proposed that all nations should join the United States in demanding that China pay for the effect of the virus. “All nations should work together to present China a bill for a minimum of $10 trillion to compensate for the damage,” he said.

The very richest Americans could be hit with bills for billions of dollars under plans being developed for a wealth tax by Democratic Rep. Tom Suozzi, it emerged on Monday, which would see Amazon founder Jeff Bezos face paying almost ten billion dollars on his enormous wealth. Suozzi, who sits on the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee, is drafting what he called a 'patriot tax.'It would impose one-time tax of 2.5% on wealth above $50 million and a 5% surcharge above $100 million.At that rate, Bezos, the country's wealthiest person, would face a payment of almost ten billion dollars on his wealth of about $195 billion.

President Joe Biden’s administration announced their plans to create ways for Americans to report radicalized friends and family to the government, in an effort to fight domestic terrorism. In a conversation with reporters, one senior administration official explained the importance of stopping politically fueled violence before it started. “We will work to improve public awareness of federal resources to address concerning or threatening behavior before violence occurs,” the official said. The official cited the Department of Homeland Security’s “If you see something say something” campaign to help stop radical Islamic terror as a domestic possibility.

There is something you need to know because it is of overwhelming importance to America’s survival as a constitutional democratic republic: The Biden administration is moving inexorably to making it a crime to oppose Biden and the Democrat party’s policies. Attorney General Merrick Garland is organizing a massive task force to hunt those illusory “White supremacists,” who just happen to be Trump supporters. Moreover, the federal charging documents against many of those being held for trespassing in Congress reveal that some of the people most active in planning January 6 and encouraging others to act were FBI agents or informants. In other words, it was a set-up.

It is now clear, after the appointment of new attorney general, Merrick Garland, that he must, not may, appoint a Special Counsel to investigate Hunter Biden in public corruption matters that may substantially involve his father. This is especially clear now that it is known, contrary to his fervent denials, that Joe Biden met with Hunter’s corrupt Ukrainian and Russian clients at least once at Café Milano in Washington, D.C. There are likely more meetings, but once is enough. He also met at length in the White House with Hunter’s partner, Devon Archer, as the two were pitching their services to the corrupt Burisma Holdings,

The assessment, dated June 4, said the involvement of QAnon adherents in the storming of the U.S. Capitol “will continue to act as a catalyst for some to begin accepting the legitimacy of violent action.”(Snip) QAnon originated in late 2017 and

American media is so infected with leftism that it’s ideologically slanted to the point of tipping over and it’s highly possible that the media doesn’t even know it. It doesn’t have the ability to look at itself critically, and we get very real moments where the media asks Democrats what it can do to better help them along while on air. The media in other countries can see it, though, and Australia’s, in particular, can’t help but dedicate a segment to it.
