A physically healthy, 28-year-old Dutch woman has decided to legally end her life due to her struggles with crippling depression, autism and borderline personality disorder, according to a report. Zoraya ter Beek, who lives in a small village in the Netherlands near the German border, is scheduled to be euthanized in May — despite being in love with her 40-year-old boyfriend and living with two cats. Ter Beek, who once aspired to be a psychiatrist, has been dealing with mental health struggles throughout her life.

New York City has agreed to pay a whopping settlement after a pair of women claimed their rights were violated when they were forced to remove their hijabs for mugshots.
A hijab is not a full-body garment. It covers only the hair and neck.
The city said it will fork over the $17.5 million settlement, (snip)
Ms. Clark, who was arrested on a violation of an order of protection in Manhattan in 2017, said she “wept and begged to put her hijab back on” while standing in Police Headquarters at One Police Plaza with the head scarf around her shoulders, according to the complaint.
An environmentalist nonprofit that seeks to cut carbon emissions and promote clean energy is suing to stop the Biden administration from funding a zero-emission power plant.
The Department of Energy (DOE) announced in January that it had approved a $1.1 billion credit payment to the Diablo Canyon Power Plant, a nuclear facility on the central California coast, to provide the plant with a path to avoid its planned shutdown in 2025. Though nuclear power plants produce negligible carbon emissions, Friends of the Earth (FOE), a group seeking to reduce carbon emissions, filed a lawsuit Tuesday seeking to block the DOE’s funding,
California’s fast food franchisees must hike their minimum wage to $20 an hour under a law Gov. Gavin Newsom (D.) hailed as "extraordinarily beneficial." His own luxury restaurants, meanwhile, are paying their workers less.
Active job listings for Newsom's PlumpJack Cafe, which touts its status as "Lake Tahoe's premier dining destination," advertise "busser," "host," "server," and "food runner" positions with $16 hourly wages. The restaurant is located steps from Palisades Tahoe—California's top ski resort—and features a full bar, fine wines including a $5,300 bottle of Burgundy, and high-priced entrees.

Americans love Florida, even if you don't

I’m a big fan of revealed preference: watch what people do, not what they say. (snip) And here's a truth that some of my progressive readers might find uncomfortable: Americans love Florida. Lots of people are moving there, and relatively few people are leaving. (snip) The NBC story leaves a false impression, however, partly by relying on anecdotal evidence — (snip) But mostly because it implies that the rate of “movers’s remorse” in Florida is high. And statistically, it isn’t. (snip) But Florida isn’t like that: it has a high rate of in-migration and a low rate of out-migration:
Employees at Fosters Freeze in Lemoore are out of a job. (snip) Navarro says the owner, Loren Wright, had previously told her the $20 minimum wage increase for fast food workers was going to be really hard on him.
She said he did not tell her or any of the other workers that he was going to close. (snip) In a text from Loren Wright, he stated that he couldn't survive the mandated wage increases: (snip) "By Friday night I knew I was most likely not gonna be able to stay open but I didn't want to ruin their Easter Sunday."

Profitability Doesn’t Hold Water, New
Study Finds 18 replies
Claims made by global consulting firm McKinsey that diversity, equity and inclusion policies (DEI) increase a company’s profitability don’t hold water, according to a Monday report from Econ Journal Watch (EJW).
McKinsey published several studies in 2015, 2018, 2020 and 2023 — often titled along the lines of “Diversity Matters,” or “Diversity Wins” — claiming that there is a statistically significant positive relationship between a company’s financial performance and the percentage of racial and ethnic diversity among its executives, according to EJW. EJW could not produce such findings when conducting its own version of such a study, calling into question the quality of McKinsey’s methods
President Joe Biden’s secular deputies kidnapped Christian theology to champion transgenderism on the holiest weekend for Christianity.
On Sunday afternoon, Biden’s X account tweeted: “Today, on Transgender Day of Visibility, I have a simple message to all trans Americans: I see you. You are made in the image of God, and you’re worthy of respect and dignity.” (snip) The “made in the image of God” phrase and claim is a theological statement by a government that vigorously enforces secularism outside churches.
On Easter Sunday a magistrate judge in El Paso, Texas, ordered the release of migrants who were charged with rioting after a large group stormed the border, tearing down razor wire and clashing with members of the Texas National Guard in the process.
Presiding Magistrate Judge Humberto Acosta delivered the ruling after accusing the El Paso District Attorney’s office of failing to prepare properly and thus not being ready and “not being ready to proceed with detention hearings for each defendant,” The El Paso Times reported on Sunday.
“It is the ruling of the court is that all the rioting participation cases will be released on their own recognizance,” Acosta said,
Former President Trump prayed the Lord’s Prayer with the grieving family of Jonathan Diller at the slain NYPD detective’s wake Thursday — and was cheered on by the cop’s son, the ceremony celebrant recalled. (snip) “I was able to just say, ‘Mr. President, thank you for being here. Thank you for your goodness to this family. Would you be willing to pray with us?'” Duffy recalled.
“And he said, ‘Of course, Father Duffy.'”
Trump then joined the entire room in reciting the Lord’s Prayer, which asks for God’s forgiveness and protection against Satan.
Michelle Obama has never expressed any interest in running for president and this month her office made clear that was fully behind Joe Biden's run for reelection.
Yet the idea that the former first lady could be plotting to parachute in as an alternative to the 81-year-old president and rescue the Democratic Party won't die.
Perhaps until now.
An exclusive DailyMail.com/J.L. Partners poll shows she would do no better in a hypothetical match-up against Donald Trump than Biden would.
Our poll of 1000 likely voters found that she would lose to the former president by three points in a hypothetical match-up.
The Sacramento City Council voted unanimously Tuesday night to declare the California capital a “sanctuary city for transgender people.”
The resolution, which takes effect immediately, ensures that no city resources will be used to criminalize trans people seeking transition-related care or to cooperate with jurisdictions seeking to enforce laws that criminalize the care elsewhere.
It comes as conservative lawmakers across the country have enacted laws to limit both surgical and nonsurgical forms of gender-affirming care for minors — including puberty blockers and hormone replacement therapy — within the last handful of years.

Pencil neck California Congressman Adam Schiff has said he is taking “seriously” the prospect that Donald Trump will put him in prison when he returns to the White House next January.
Speaking to The Los Angeles Times, Schiff expressed his fear that Trump would send him to prison, despite the fact that he would have no power to do so.
“We’re taking this seriously because we have to,” Schiff said. “We’ve seen this movie before … and how perilous it is to ignore what someone is saying when they say they want to be a dictator.”
Such fears are a response to recent comments by Trump, who said that Schiff and

A deep-voiced male lawyer in Washington State is being jeered for his decision to sexually display himself as a big-chested woman in a low-cut dress.
“This is a man with a fetish for an absurd caricature of the female form that clearly thrives on the attention,” said British journalist Darren Grimes. “Democrat America is nuts.” “This weird minstrel show ‘woman-face’ is pure misogyny … in offensive stereotype costumes,” said a tweet from a self-declared liberal, Yoysher Freyheyt.

One of the things that frustrated me about Trump’s (first?) term was his seeming complete indifference to #TheResistance that manifested before he even took office. Unelected bureaucrats working in the ridiculously invasive executive branch’s many agencies, publicly declared war on him, and he . . . well, he did nothing.
Until the final year of his presidency when he seemed to finally take aim at the problem in his own branch of government–we can call it the deep state, the resistance, the entrenched bureaucrats who oversee far too much policy in America and who are, apparently, answerable to no one. Not the voter, not the president.
So then-president Trump launched
American forces have been placed on "high alert" as of Friday, in anticipation of a possible attack by Iranian forces on either U.S. or Israeli assets in the Middle East. The attack, if it happens, is expected to come as soon as next week.Senior US officials currently believe that an attack by Iran is “inevitable” – a view shared by their Israeli counterparts, that official said. The two governments are furiously working to get in position ahead of what is to come, as they anticipate that Iran’s attack could unfold in a number of different ways – and that both US and Israeli assets and personnel are at risk
Joe Biden’s campaign finance chair Rufus Gifford was on MSNBC on Saturday to discuss fundraising.
Even though Biden has been perceived as weak on the world stage, a delusional Gifford told a different story.
“There is no one who has a better grasp of global issues of world affairs than President Joe Biden,” Gifford said.
“There is no one who has the same level of respect on the world stage than Joe Biden does,” Gifford continued.
Hillary Clinton was branded a 'super predator' while husband Bill was called a 'piece of s***' during an ambush by pro-Palestine protesters in New York City.
The Clintons were accused of 'facilitating genocide' by the demonstrators who hurled abuse at the couple as they exited a Biden fundraiser on Wednesday.
Hillary was leaving the Music Box Theater where she and her husband were watching a preview of the show 'Suffs' for which she is a producer.

NEW YORK (AP) — The reposts and expressions of shock from public figures followed quickly after a user on the social platform X who uses a pseudonym claimed that a government website had revealed “skyrocketing” rates of voters registering without a photo ID in three states this year — two of them crucial to the presidential contest.
“Extremely concerning,” X owner Elon Musk replied twice to the post this past week.
“Are migrants registering to vote using SSN?” Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, an ally of former President Donald Trump, asked on Instagram, using the acronym for Social Security number.
Trump himself posted to his own social platform within hours
Don Lemon has wed longtime fiancé Tim Malone in a glitzy New York City ceremony attended by several of his disgraced-A lister pals.
Lemon, 58, tied the knot with Malone, 40, on Saturday at Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church.
The ceremony took place half a decade after they got engaged and on the same day as his fiancé's birthday. Disgraced sex pest broadcaster Matt Lauer, fired CNN boss Jeff Zucker and accused killer Alec Baldwin were among the illustrious attendees.
I have long predicted that normalizing transgender surgeries would be followed eventually by doctors intentionally disabling patients with Body Identity Integrity Disorder (BIID). These patients obsess that their “true selves” are quadriplegic, or amputees, or blind, and they yearn to be made that way. It is a real and anguishing condition. Some are now even calling the affliction “transable” (get it?).
Well, here it comes. A doctor in Quebec “treated” a BIID patient by amputating two of his healthy fingers. Otherwise, the patient was threatening to mutilate himself. From the National Post story:
The fact that there were only two fingers involved in the Quebec case, as opposed to

Remember when the Biden administration announced that it would place a ban on menthol cigarettes? Well, it appears the White House could be close to making such a prohibition a reality.
The ban is supposedly, and racistly, intended to save black people from themselves, given that menthol cigarettes are popular among African American smokers. However, there are reasons to speculate that President Joe Biden could be slow-walking the process for political reasons.
The proposed prohibition on menthol smokes was introduced about two years ago and was met with criticism from folks on the left and the right.
The regulations, which would broadly ban the product, were first
