Biden says power plants have to reduce
pollution by 90% or shut down: EPA announces
strict guidelines for green agenda that
has already sparked backlash from Republicans
and Democrat Joe Manchin

The Biden administration is proposing new limits on greenhouse gas emissions from coal and gas-fired power plants, its most ambitious effort yet to roll back planet-warming pollution from the nation's second-largest contributor to climate change. A rule to be unveiled Thursday by the Environmental Protection Agency could force power plants to capture smokestack emissions using a technology that has long been promised but is not in widespread use in the U.S. If finalized, the proposed regulation would mark the first time the federal government has restricted carbon dioxide emissions from existing power plants,

Fox News Channel's Bret Baier told former President Donald Trump during a contentious interview that aired Monday night that he was the loser of the 2020 election - something the 2024 Republican hopeful still denies.
The back-and-forth continued to get heated when Baier asked Trump how he would be able to recruit good people to work for him at the White House for a second term.
Baier noted how in recent days Trump had called former Attorney General Bill Barr a 'gutless pig' and said his ex-Chief of Staff John Kelly was 'born with a [very] small brain.'
A Florida high school math teacher has been fired after a 'racially charged incident' that saw him compare students skin tones to different types of coffee roasts.
Cary Altschuler, who taught AP statistics and precalculus at Lake Worth High School, posted photos of three students on his smart board along with the labels: 'Extra Cream,' 'Medium Roast,' and 'Dark Roast.'
He claims he did it in response to two students who began calling each other 'light-skinned'. Altschuler reportedly told the students that if they were going to mock the color of each other's skin, they should be more creative.
Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib has urged climate activists to be 'much more aggressive' as they plan a campaign of blocking highways and chaotic protests later this summer, DailyMail.com can reveal.
DailyMail.com gained access to private talks in which Tlaib, a member of Congress's leftist 'Squad,' gave a pep talk to some 125 hardliners from Climate Defiance, Declare Emergency and other environmental groups.
The activists have already blocked US highways, vandalized an artwork in Washington, and heckled politicians at speaking engagements. They're understood to be plotting much larger European-style climate protests later this summer.
Former President Trump defended his storage of classified documents and vowed to continue pursuing the 2024 Republican nomination despite his legal woes in his first TV interview since he was indicted on 37 federal charges earlier this month.
The former president sat down with Fox News' Bret Baier for a wide-ranging exclusive interview scheduled to air in two segments on Monday and Tuesday on "Special Report." Baier told his colleague Martha MacCallum on "The Story" that the interview addresses nearly "every question that you would want to ask the former president."
Palo Alto, California—President Joe Biden ramps up his reelection effort this week with four fundraisers in the San Francisco area, as his campaign builds up its coffers and lays strategic foundations for 2024.
In the back half of June, Biden’s campaign will have more than 20 fundraisers involving him, Vice President Kamala Harris, first lady Jill Biden and second gentleman Douglas Emhoff, according to a person involved in Biden’s travel plans who insisted on anonymity to discuss the schedule.
More than half of the fundraisers are with the Democratic president, who arrived in California on Monday and was greeted by Gov. Gavin Newsom. Biden also will be traveling
Merrick Garland has dropped any pretext of the DOJ being anything other than the enforcement thugs of the Democrat party. He is showing us the depth of his department's corruption and daring us to do something about it. His hubris may be shortsighted.
Have you ever heard the Friedrich Nietzsche aphorism, "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger"? Does Donald Trump look like a dying man — or one invigorated by the prospect of combat? Have Joe Biden and Merrick Garland thought this indictment through? Have they not learned that when attacked, Donald Trump emerges stronger? Was turning Donald Trump into a martyr
A majority of voters believe President Joe Biden took a $5 million bribe from a Ukrainian oligarch, a recent Harvard/HarrisX poll found.
The poll asked respondents, “Do you think Joe Biden took a $5 million bribe when he was Vice President, or is that a false charge?”
Overall, 57 percent said Biden took a bribe, while 43 percent said he did not.Related Video — Joe Biden Snaps at Reporter over “Big Guy” Question: “Why’d You Ask Such a Dumb Question?”: (Video) Among those who doubt whether Biden took a bribe, 72 percent of Democrats, 43 percent of independents, and 13 percent of Republicans say he did not.

Hunter Biden and his Ukrainian gas firm employer were involved in setting up an account with a foreign bank that was shut down after a money laundering investigation.
Burisma, the allegedly corrupt Ukrainian gas firm that hired the President's son in 2014, set up an account with him in Malta at a bank that later closed following a financial crimes probe, bombshell emails show.
The revelation that the First Son and Burisma are linked to a bank accused of flouting money laundering rules, comes after claims made by a longstanding FBI informant revealed this month by lawmakers, that Burisma's owner sent $10 million to Hunter and his father
President Joe Biden said Monday that Juneteenth is about “reading books, not banning them,” in an apparent reference to efforts to ban pornographic books from children’s libraries.
“Juneteenth is about Americans feeling the progress we can make for America. It’s about remembering history, not erasing it. It’s about reading books, not banning them. That’s what great nations do, and we are a great nation,” the president said in a tweet.(Tweet) Biden has made his fight against book banning a key part of his reelection campaign, featuring a clip about the issue in his 2024 launch video.

According to Levin, President Joe Biden and Attorney General Merrick Garland had to authorize the investigation.
Transcript as follows:LEVIN: First, I want to tell you a little bit about this prosecutor, Jack Smith, who I call Jack the Ripper Smith. He is a very bad guy in my opinion.

Our insatiable need for water may be keeping us alive, but it's shifting the tilt of the Earth, a new study shows.
Researchers in Korea say the removal of groundwater around the world for drinking and irrigation is altering the Earth's mass and in turn making its axis 'wobble'. Changing the position of the axis can potentially increase the amount of sunlight the poles are getting, which can increase the melting of polar ice.
According to the team, we've shifted such a large mass of water that the Earth tilted 31 inches (78.5cm) east between 1993 and 2010 alone.

Democrat and Ranking member of the House Weaponization Subcommittee says the quiet part out loud. Democrat Delegate to the House of Representatives from the US Virgin Islands Stacey Plaskett appeared to make a Freudian slip during her latest appearance on MSNBC. During her latest appearance on The Sunday Show Plaskett stated, “Having Trump not only having the codes but now having the classified information for Americans and being able to put that out and share it in his resort with anyone and everything who comes through should be terrifying to all Americans.” Plaskett then continued, “He needs to be (shot) — Stopped.”
Meghan Markle could become one of the highest paid influencers in the world, receiving £200,000 per post to endorse brands, experts have suggested, as she is tipped to become the new face of French fashion house Dior.
The Duchess of Sussex was dealt a blow by audio giant Spotify earlier this week after it was announced that they would not be renewing her podcast Archetypes for a second season following a 'mutual' decision - a move that could see Meghan and Prince Harry lose $10 million.
But Meghan is set to weather the storm,
The utter failure of Merrick Garland
41 replies
Merrick Garland began his tenure as attorney general with the stated intention of restoring faith in the Justice Department and the rule of law. By that standard, Garland has been a failure.
In fact, if anything, the crisis of faith surrounding his department has only deepened on his watch, and he bears some of the blame. Polls show that half the country distrusts the FBI. A recent poll by Harvard CAPS-Harris found that 70 percent are either very or somewhat concerned about election interference by the FBI and other intelligence agencies. An additional 71 percent agreed that changes post-2016 had not done enough to prevent further interference and
Presidential hopeful Mike Pence won't say whether he would pardon Donald Trump, claiming that the former president could still be found innocent in his federal indictment.
Trump's former VP shared with NBC host Chuck Todd that he was hoping Trump would 'come around' to accepting the results of the 2020 election by now.
Pence is now running against his former boss in the 2024 primary – and argued that Trump is not the same leader he was when they ran together in 2016.
Former President Obama wants the government to be able to track and hunt down Americans by their fingerprints if they dare spread so-called "misinformation." During an interview with podcast host David Axelrod, Obama called for implementing "digital fingerprints" as a mandatory online requirement to combat misinformation.
The Democrat suggested the government needs a way to track and identify people who spread so-called "misinformation" online.
The CNN podcaster claimed he has seen "misinformation, disinformation, [and] deep fakes" targeting the former president, which Obama agreed with
Five people were killed and at least 42 were injured in multiple shootings as violence erupted across the country over the holiday weekend.
A shooting at a Juneteenth celebration in a suburban Illinois town left one person dead after at least 20 people were shot outside a shopping center overnight.
It happened around 12:30 a.m. on Route 83 near Honeysuckle Lane in Willowbrook, Illinois, Battalion Chief Joe Ostrander with the Tri-State Fire Protection District told WLS.
Secretary of State Tony Blinken traveled to China this past weekend to give the green light to the communist regime to invade Taiwan.
The Biden regime is destroying America from within and surrendering our principles and leadership on the international stage at the same time.
As Steve Bannon says, “Elections have consequences. Stolen elections have catastrophic consequences.”
Tony Blinken made this announcement from mainland China, “We do not support Taiwan independence.”
Monday, the nineteenth of June, is our newest federal holiday (just 2 years old), Juneteenth, and federal workers get yet another day’s pay without having to work for it. Since the federal workforce is heavily overrepresented with black workers (18.2% of the federal workforce versus 12.6% of the population), the words “disparate impact” come to mind, benefitting African Americans with a paid holiday that not too many other employees get, judging by the fact that I was able to book two appointments with service providers tomorrow before I even realized Monday was holiday.
The transgender issue makes everyone crazy. That’s the only explanation I can give for the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) berating the state of Florida for executing Duane Owen, who was convicted of raping and murdering a 14-year-old babysitter and a 38-year-old mother of two.
Indeed, the ACLU is strongly opposed to capital punishment. But the organization only made passing reference to their opposition to the death penalty. Instead, they were livid with Florida for executing Duane Owen because the state refused to allow Owen to “transition” to female. (Snip) “No one should be killed by the state. The time to end the racist, unfair, and cruel death penalty is now,”
Scott is the only Black candidate in the 2024 Republican presidential primary race and Haley is Indian American.
Which has got to leave a sour taste in Scott's mouth, given that he's the only black man in the presidential race, and what's more, he's actually lived firsthand through the era of real racism as a child growing up in the South.
Asked about Scott’s messaging, Obama said there was sometimes a tendency among Republican candidates to gloss over the effects of racism, arguing that candidates need to address racial disparities to be taken seriously on the subject of American unity.

Joe Biden on Friday left Americans scratching their heads with an off-the-cuff remark that was, well, royally unusual for a US president: “God save the queen, man!”
What he meant, which queen he was referring to, and why he threw in what sounded like the traditional patriotic British cry, no one could immediately tell.Queen Elizabeth II, whom Biden met, died in September 2022 and was replaced by a king — her son Charles.Biden had just completed an impassioned speech at the National Safer Communities Summit in Connecticut on getting Congress to toughen gun ownership laws when he made the remark from the stage.
