Yesterday, Joe Biden declared that all coal-fired electricity plants in the U.S would be shut down, saying, “we’re going to be shutting these plants down all across America and having wind and solar.” Today, West Virginia Democrat Joe Manchin, the senator who gave Joe Biden the vote he needed for the ‘inflation reduction act’ also known as the climate change investment act that will eliminate all oil, coal and natural gas development, pretends to act surprised that Joe Biden will destroy the West Virginia coal mining industry.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has spoken on camera for the first time about her husband, Paul Pelosi’s condition after he was attacked in their home last week.
Pelosi opened a 28-minute video about the upcoming midterm election by giving a brief update about her husband, who returned to their residence from the hospital on Thursday.
“Thank you, thank you, thank you for kind words, your prayers, and your good wishes for Paul,” Pelosi said.
“It’s going to be a long haul, but he will be well. And, it’s just so tragic how it happened, but nonetheless, we have to be optimistic. He’s surrounded by family, so that’s a wonderful thing,”
Amnesty for J6, not covid

Emily Oster, Professor of Economics and International and Public Affairs at Brown University, wrote in The Atlantic that we must declare a pandemic amnesty in which we forgive what she and her friends did and said about covid.(snip) "The people who got it right, for whatever reason, may want to gloat (snip).I am not gloating.

for mass layoffs at Twitter under Elon Musk 16 replies
Former Twitter employees have been vocal about brutal layoffs under new owner Elon Musk, but the platform's cofounder, Jack Dorsey, said he's the one to blame.
In a Saturday tweet, Dorsey took responsibility for Musk cutting thousands of jobs during his first week (snip) In a tweet on Friday, Musk said he had "no choice" but to reduce Twitter's workforce as the company was losing $4 million a day.
Though Musk faced backlash for the surprise firings, he maintained that the company offered those affected a severance package.
"Everyone exited was offered 3 months of severance, which is 50% more than legally required," Musk tweeted.
Democrats and their little media friends are beside themselves that right-wingers aren’t in mourning over the very strange — shut up, don’t ask! — attack on Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband. They’ve all seemed to have forgotten how they treated everyone over the past three years.
(snip) Paul Pelosi was hospitalized last week after a man in his house attacked him with a hammer. At this point, that is literally the only thing that everyone agrees happened, since the story keeps changing. (snip)
Setting aside the ever-changing kinky details of the affair, it’s been interesting to watch liberals in the days since whine about Republicans and conservative media being insufficiently
As the midterms approach, one way of looking at America’s current disaster is that we, the American people, were lab rats. And since 2021, the Left were the mad scientists, eager to try out their crackpot leftist experiments on us.
The result is that the housing market is tottering on the verge of collapse.
As interest rates soar, our $31 trillion national debt crowds out everything else in the budget.
Inflation roars at a rate of 8-9 percent per annum, higher than at any time in 40 years. Yet the prices of the stuff of life—food, fuel, shelter, energy—are far steeper still than the official rate.
NBC News has pulled a bombshell report that claimed Paul Pelosi did not tell responding police officers that he was in danger just before he was injured in a hammer attack at his San Francisco home last week.
The clip posted by the media outlet early Friday morning cited sources (snip)that claimed the husband of US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi did not declare an emergency or say he was in distress when cops showed up at his door in response to his 911 call.
(snip) claimed the 82-year-old walked back a few feet away from the officers and into the foyer toward David DePape,
Gender Jesuits

Human sexual dimorphism—the predictable and consistent physical differences between males and females—is undeniable. Ironically, even trans activists acknowledge this fact when they seek to use surgery and psychotropic drugs to modify their bodies to resemble the opposite sex. That they can’t get past nature is not surprising since the categories of male and female are mutually exclusive. No matter how close a male gets to female morphology, there is an infinitely deep chasm between the two categories.
While both men and women feature a wide spectrum of every trait, at no point do these differences cross over into the other sex.
The Floyd Effect

With elections a few days away, crime statistics are finally being widely discussed in the press. So…I’m not going to pass up one last chance to deluge you with new graphs based on the CDC’s WONDER database of causes of death.
Democratic politicians have been flailing about looking for a way to get off the hook for the historic increase in murder and car crash mayhem ever since our respectable class’ leaders declared “the racial reckoning” was at hand following the unfortunate expiration of George Floyd on May 25, 2020.

Liz versus Tulsi
7 replies
I call it the battle of turncoats. I trust neither Liz Cheney nor Tulsi Gabbard. The fact that both opposed Trump (oh yes, the little surfer girl ran for president as a Never Trump Democrat) is part of it. But mainly I distrust them because they have turned on their own parties.
Of the two, Liz has it harder because her switch is to Democrats in a Republican year. She went down to Arizona to try and save Secretary of State Katie Hobbs from the Queen of MAGA, Kari Lake. It is almost unfair.
Tulsi stayed home and tweeted, "Kari Lake is a leader who puts people first, is fighting for border
In an election year that has Democrats often using the “extremist” label on the GOP to distract from the country’s economic problems, experts say that the rush by mainstream media to blame “right-wing extremism” for the attack on the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calf.), has actually harmed the Democrats,
(snip) Democrats used the Jan. 6 Committee hearings, amplified by the media, to highlight the “danger to democracy” that the GOP allegedly poses to the country. But one observer said that the quickness with which some media outlets alleged that the attack on Paul Pelosi was the result of a conservative obsession—before more detail about the alleged assailant came to

NEW YORK - Kroger Co's acquisition of Albertsons Companies Inc could exacerbate income inequality through job losses and eroding wages at a time of high inflation, a group of the retailers' biggest unions and antitrust experts wrote in a letter seen by Reuters on Thursday.
"In many markets across the country, grocery competition would cease, likely resulting in employee layoffs and higher prices," they wrote in a letter addressed to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) chair Lina Khan, urging the agency to block the deal.
"The merger should be blocked, as it would harm workers, consumers and communities," said the United Food & Commercial Workers (UFCW) Local 400, who authored

I guess it was just a matter of time, but doing it three days before the mid-terms seems less than ideal.
Donald Trump held a rally in Pennslyvania tonight, but as usual, the candidates running for office were an afterthought. Instead, the former president spent the majority of the time talking about himself. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. It’s a Trump rally after all, and to be sure, they can be very entertaining. Unfortunately, instead of some of the good things he said making news, there’s currently just one clip going gangbusters on Saturday night. That would be this one where Trump engaged in friendly fire by taking
Former President Barack Obama insisted Saturday that Pennsylvania Lt. Gov John Fetterman was fit to serve in the US Senate despite the lingering effects of a stroke suffered in May.
Fetterman is facing Republican opponent Dr. Mehmet Oz in a tight contest for the Keystone state’s open Senate seat.
“John’s stroke did not change who he is, it didn’t change what he cares about, it didn’t change his values, his heart, his fight,” Obama said during a rally in Pittsburgh. “It doesn’t change who he will represent when he gets to the United States Senate. He’ll represent you. And that’s what you deserve.”

Liberals suffered a tragic loss when MSNBC suddenly and unexpectedly pulled the plug on Tiffany Cross, whose unapologetic, anti-white racism had drawn much criticism, with her former network colleague Joy Reid being among the most saddened.
The controversial weekend host’s time at the left-wing cable network officially came to an end when her “bad judgment” finally caught up with her after a lewd remark that Florida is the “d*ck of the country,” which was apparently the last straw for NBC Universal executives who were already growing tired of her act.
At the end of Friday’s edition of “The Reid Out,” MSNBC’s surviving racist stood up for her dearly departed counterpart,
United Nations human rights chief Volker Türk urged Elon Musk, Twitter's new owner and CEO, to "ensure human rights are central to the management of Twitter." The letter comes a day after the billionaire sacked half of Twitter's workforce following an announcement that the social media platform was losing more than $4 million per day. In the open letter published on Saturday, Türk wrote, "Respect for our shared human rights should set the guardrails for the platform's use and evolution."
Woke’ corporations that have dominated social media giant Twitter for years are pulling their ads in the aftermath of Elon Musk’s takeover of the platform.
Pfizer on Thursday announced that it was ‘pausing’ ads, but it wasn’t the only corporation upset with Americans being allowed to discuss politics openly on the major digital platform.
Some advertisers are concerned that Mr. Musk could scale back content moderation, which they worry would lead to an increase in objectionable content on the platform. Others are temporarily halting their ads because of the uncertainty at the company as top executives exit and Mr. Musk considers a raft of changes, some of the people said.

Ron DeSantis is the latest politician to fall victim to one of Trump’s famous nicknames.
In times past Trump has coined Low Energy Jeb, Sleepy Joe, Crooked Hillary, Little Marco Rubio, and the list goes on and on.
During last night’s rally in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, Trump surprisingly gave Ron DeSantis the nickname “Ron DeSanctimonious”.
“We’re winning big in the Republican Party for the nomination like nobody’s ever seen before,” Trump told a crowd in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, on Saturday night before going down the list of other Republicans who could potentially challenge him in 2024.
Outgoing Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) endorsed Democrat Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D-VA) over her Republican challenger, Yesli Vega, just days before the midterm election.
Spanberger is a far-left Democrat running against Vega, former President Donald Trump’s choice to represent Virginia’s seventh congressional district.
“We don’t agree on every policy, but I am absolutely certain that Abigail is dedicated to serving this country and her constituents and defending our Constitution,” Cheney told the Washington Post. She accused Vega of “promoting conspiracy theories, denying election outcomes she disagrees with, and defending the indefensible.”
“We need our elected leaders to be honest, serious, and responsible,
Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin on Saturday slammed President Joe Biden for pledging to shut down America’s coal plants in a speech in California. “President Biden’s comments are not only outrageous and divorced from reality, they ignore the severe economic pain the American people are feeling because of rising energy costs,” Manchin (D-W.Va.) said in a statement just days ahead of the midterm elections. “Comments like these are the reason the American people are losing trust in President Biden. … It seems his positions change daily depending on the audience and politics of the day.” In a speech about the CHIPS
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., on Saturday became the longest-serving female in Senate history, passing former Sen. Barbara Mikulski while celebrating her 30th anniversary as part of the chamber. Feinstein, the first woman to lead the Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee from 2017 to 2021 and the first female head of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, called it an "incredible honor" to reach the milestone. "I'm forever grateful to the people of California who sent me here to represent them," Feinstein said in a statement released this week. "It has been a great pleasure to watch more and more
President Joe Biden responded to criticism from centrist Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) on Saturday, who denounced the president for being “divorced from reality” after suggesting he would shut down coal plants nationwide.
“The President’s remarks yesterday have been twisted to suggest a meaning that was not intended; he regrets it if anyone hearing these remarks took offense,” said White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre in a statement.
“The President was commenting on a fact of economics and technology: as it has been from its earliest days as an energy superpower, America is once again in the midst of an energy transition.
Once-large Democratic polling lead in Pennsylvania has disappeared following a barrage of Republican attacks on the issue of crime — and a difficult debate performance by Fetterman, who is recovering from a stroke he suffered this spring.
That’s why Fetterman and Obama are rallying in Pittsburgh this morning.
And things once again were not looking good for Biden 2.0
John Fetterman took his little podium, and it was as if God himself, looked down, and said “Not Today,”
Sen. Joe Manchin Saturday demanded President Biden apologize for saying coal plants "all across America" will be shut down, in a scathing statement just days before crucial midterm elections.
"President Biden’s comments are not only outrageous and divorced from reality, they ignore the severe economic pain the American people are feeling because of rising energy costs," Manchin, D-W.Va., said. "Comments like these are the reason the American people are losing trust in President Biden and instead believes he does not understand the need to have an all in energy policy that would keep our nation totally energy independent and secure."
