Posted By: snakeoil, 4/9/2025 9:16:53 PM
New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham (D) has declared a state of emergency for Albuquerque, ordering the National Guard to help combat crime in the state’s largest city. “The safety of New Mexicans is my top priority,” Lujan Grisham said in a statement. “This partnership represents our commitment to addressing the fentanyl crisis and juvenile crime with every resource at our disposal.” Lujan Grisham, a former member of Congress who is term limited, said the New Mexico National Guard will assist Albuquerque police with essential duties so the city’s law enforcement officers “can focus on what they do best — keeping our communities safe.”

Fox News senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy had to fight off a bird during a live appearance discussing a dispute with Mexico and tariffs on “Fox and Friends” Friday. China announced it was increasing tariffs on American imports to the Communist nation to 125% on Friday, according to The Associated Press. Doocy was reporting on both the tariffs and President Donald Trump’s actions in a water dispute with Mexico when the bird landed on his head in the middle of the segment. “Peter, I appreciate–” “Fox and Friends” co-host Brian Kilmeade said when the bird, which appeared to be a pigeon, landed on Doocy’s head...

President Donald Trump’s tariff plan appears focused around a simple tenet for any manufacturer: Produce in the United States if you want unfettered access to U.S. markets. If that’s the demand of this moment, Hyundai Motor Group of South Korea looks in some ways like a brilliant strategist. Back in 2022, months before then-President Joe Biden approved credits for buying electric vehicles, and long before the sharp rise in tariffs that President Trump has announced recently, Hyundai signed the biggest economic development deal in Georgia’s history. This new $7.6 billion EV factory broke ground just over two years ago in a massive pine grove just west of Savannah, Georgia.
A detailed analysis of a full-sized digital scan of the Titanic has revealed new insight into the doomed liner's final hours. The exact 3D replica shows the violence of how the ship ripped in two as it sank after hitting an iceberg in 1912 - 1,500 people lost their lives in the disaster. The scan provides a new view of a boiler room, confirming eye-witness accounts that engineers worked right to the end to keep the ship's lights on.
A former federal bureaucrat and an executive for a green nonprofit have been arrested and charged for allegedly vandalizing Teslas in Washington, D.C., according to The Washington Post. Justin Fisher, 49, and his wife, Emily, 50, have been arrested and respectively charged with eight and five counts of defacing private property in connection to their alleged vandalism of Tesla vehicles in and around the capital’s Capitol Hill neighborhood, according to the Post.
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has fired one of his deputies for taking a "lavish" trip to Antarctica with his wife during Nowruz, the Persian new year. The president's office described Shahram Dabiri's trip as "unjustifiable and unacceptable given the ongoing economic challenges" in Iran. A picture of Dabiri and his wife posing in front of MV Plancius, which was bound for Antarctica, circulated widely on social media and caused outrage in Iran.
America’s top corporations wasted no time in cutting green energy buzzwords out of their vocabularies during earnings calls, a shift experts say points to the exorbitant and unsustainable nature of the renewable energy industry as a whole. Top companies are discussing renewable energy terms like climate change, global warming, environmental, social and governance (ESG), clean energy and green energy 75% less than they were three years ago, S&P 500 company earnings call transcripts reviewed by Bloomberg Green show.
A French court sentenced Marine Le Pen to four years in prison and banned her from standing for public office for five years. It seems likely that the court may forgo incarceration for an ankle monitor, and it is quite unlikely that it will lift the ballot ban. You see, Le Pen consistently leads in the polls for the presidency of France by double digits. So, an ends-justifies-the-means Left concocted a charge of embezzlement — claiming that her National Rally party used aides within the European Union to conduct political activities in France — to deny the people of France...
While the evidence is only anecdotal at this point, it appears that the Left has been making effective arguments for 2nd Amendment rights in their recent efforts to intimidate Tesla owners. Several accounts have now surfaced of Tesla owners being threatened and their vehicles vandalized...
Democrat Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet disagreed with California Gov. Gavin Newsom Sunday, acknowledging the party’s brand problems but blaming states like California and New York and their “educated elites.” Newsom appeared on “Real Time With Bill Maher” Friday evening, stating that his party’s brand was “toxic,” adding how Democrats “talk down” to voters. On “Meet the Press,” host Kristen Welker pressed the senator about Newsom’s comment, asking if he agreed with the California governor about their party’s brand image.

A panelist on MSNBC fretted Friday that the Trump administration’s decision to begin abolishing the Department of Education (ED) would make it impossible to forgive student loans. President Donald Trump signed an executive order directing Secretary of Education Linda McMahon to start shutting down the agency she heads Thursday, fulfilling a campaign promise, while announcing Friday that student loans would be handled by the Small Business Administration (SBA). MSNBC analyst Susan del Percio told MSNBC host Alex Witt that Trump was trying to “privatize” student loans.
Former Clinton pollster Mark Penn warned Thursday that Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez challenging Democratic New York Sen. Chuck Schumer in 2028 could deal a devastating blow to the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party’s favorability plunged to a record low of 29%, according to a Sunday CNN/SSRS poll conducted March 6-9. Penn, on “The Story with Martha MacCallum,” said the poll indicates that the Democratic Party has retained its “left base” while “moderates” are fleeing in droves.

The Baltimore city council has proposed a bill that would put menstrual products in all men’s public restrooms.
Baltimore Councilman Paris Gray sponsored the bill and introduced it at the city council’s bi-monthly meeting, saying it reflects the city’s desire for menstrual equity. “Access to menstrual products should be as fundamental as access to soap or toilet paper,” Gray said. “It is an essential part of personal hygiene, and yet, for far too many people, these products remain out of reach. Menstrual products are not a luxury. They are a necessity,

Egg prices have not fallen by “one cent” since President Donald Trump took office, “The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg gushed Wednesday.
She’s wrong. Egg prices have fallen 44 percent since the start of 2025 after prices had soared to record levels under former President Joe Biden’s administration, according to Trade Economics.
Despite the significant fall in egg prices, Goldberg claimed she has not seen these prices fall in any way, shape or form. (X) “[Trump] did promise to lower the price of groceries, I have not seen an egg fall one cent since this man got in,” Goldberg said, prompting co-host Sunny Hostin to falsely say they are going up.
Pituffik Space Base commander Space Force Col. Susannah (Susan) Meyers was relieved of command Thursday after a report by Military.com that she had sent a base-wide email to personnel at the Greenland base after a recent visit by Vice President J.D. Vance distancing herself from President Trump’s national security policy on Greenland. Meyers had assumed command last July of the 821st Space Base Group at Pituffik.
Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell posted the announcement by Space Force of Meyers being relieved of command within hours of the report by Military.com.
Parnell: “Actions to undermine the chain of command or to subvert President Trump’s agenda will not be tolerated at the Department of Defense.”

Married Women 16 replies
On Thursday, failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton faced blowback for claiming a GOP bill “threatens” voting access for millions of married women.
Clinton, who is also a former United States senator and first lady, reacted to the House passing the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which aims to require individuals to show proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in elections for federal office.
“Update: The House just passed the Republican voter suppression measure that threatens voting access for millions of Americans, including 69 million women whose married names don’t match their birth certificates,” Clinton said. “Make sure your senators know you expect them to stand against it.”
The United States Postal Service said on Wednesday it wants to raise the price of first-class mail stamps to 78 cents from 73 cents effective July 13.
The proposal, which must be approved by the Postal Regulatory Commission, would raise overall mailing services product prices bUSPS in January opted not to hike prices for the first time since 2022 after a series of price hikes in recent years. Stamp prices are up 46% since early 2019 when they were 50 cents.
In March, Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, who led efforts to restructure the money-losing U.S. Postal Service for nearly five years, resigned effective immediately.
DeJoy had pushed for aggressive price hikes in part
Former Meet the Press host Chuck Todd appeared on the Piers Morgan show this week and admitted something that was obvious to millions of Americans over the last few years.
Todd suggested that people in media avoided pointing out signs of Joe Biden’s decline because they were afraid of being perceived as doing something that helps Trump. Everyone knew this, but it’s nice of Todd to admit it.
Most people in media are on the left, and as a result, they are terrified of angering their viewers on the left. So they will even deny reality if it means keeping their fellow tribe members happy.
China announces countermeasures by raising

tariffs on US goods from 84% to 125% from Saturday 14 replies
China announced countermeasures by raising tariffs on U.S. goods from 84% to 125% starting Saturday.
The U.S. and China have escalated a new trade war by raising tariffs even as U.S. President Donald Trump hit a pause on tariffs for other countries. China notably had said it would fight the American tariffs with its own countermeasures, calling Trump’s actions “economic bullying,” which led Trump to retaliate by continuously hiking up tariffs this week.
Trump’s universal tariffs on China total 145%. When Trump announced Wednesday that China faced 125% tariffs, he did not include a 20% tariff on China tied to its role in fentanyl production.

to Liberal Firebrand Jasmine Crockett
for Fundraising Help 14 replies
Rep. Emilia Sykes, a vulnerable Ohio Democrat, is seeking a fundraising boost from Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D., Texas), the left-wing firebrand whose insults directed at Republicans consistently stir controversy.
Sykes and Crockett formed a joint fundraising committee, the Crockett Sykes Victory Fund, on April 2, roughly two weeks after Crockett called Texas’s wheelchair-bound Greg Abbott (R.) "Governor Hot Wheels," a Federal Election Commission filing shows. The arrangement will allow Democrats to piggyback off each other’s shared fundraising efforts, potentially collecting larger checks as a result.
Sykes's decision to pair with an increasingly controversial, left-wing figure may help bring in cash, but it could also scare off the moderate voters

Interview With Stephanopoulos Raises More

We all are aware of how badly Joe Biden did in his disastrous debate in June 2024.
His people tried to save him by arranging an interview shortly thereafter with ABC's George Stephanopoulos.
But it didn't go well for Biden, as he continued to show he was completely out of it during the interview. Not only did it do nothing to calm the nerves of jittery Democrats, but Biden made bizarre comments about how he would win because he got bigger crowds than Donald Trump (he didn't), and that he was distracted by Trump shouting at him

Amazon CEO Andy Jassy gave a warning to wallet-wary Americans in the wake of President Trump’s tariff agenda — saying the everything site many have come to rely on may have to up prices on common items.
Jassy issued an equivocating warning to Amazon customers that the world’s most popular online retailer is facing challenges from the Trump administration’s tariff push, stating in an interview with CNBC’s Andrew Ross Sorkin on “Squawk Box” on Thursday that the levies could create “macro issues” that hit the average Joe square in the budget.
“I’m guessing that sellers will pass that cost on,” Jassy said
CNN host Anderson Cooper was hoisted by his own left-wing petard after being schooled by an audience member for misgendering her.
The farcical irony unfolded Tuesday night during a town hall Cooper hosted with Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont.
At one point, Cooper called on a woman in the audience and got scolded on live TV for assuming the lady was female. “I want to introduce Grace Thomas,” Cooper said. “She’s a local civil rights attorney. She’s a Democrat, right?”
An annoyed Thomas shot back: “It’s ‘they/them’ pronouns, actually. Thank you.” An apologetic Cooper stammered in shock, “Oh.” This ridiculous exchange perfectly encapsulates the left’s frivolous obsession with triviality, as the
A majority have an unfavorable view of Democrats in Congress, a weekly survey from the Economist/YouGov found.
The survey asked respondents if they have a favorable or unfavorable view of Democrats in Congress.
Across the board, 60 percent said they have an unfavorable view, and of those, 37 percent have a “very” unfavorable view. Just 31 percent have a favorable view, but of those, only 10 percent have a “very” favorable view of Democrats.
Predictably, most Democrats, 71 percent, have a favorable view of Democrats in Congress, while the vast majority of Republicans, 93 percent, have an unfavorable view. Most independents, 62 percent, also have an unfavorable view of Democrats in Congress.
