[Sen Dianne Feinstein spent thirty years in Congress.  Her death yesterday launched an avalanche of hosannas by the lamestream for her productive life as a legislator.  However, her accomplishments as such have been few and far between, and almost all misdirected.  RIP Dianne.  gjr]

    “Gov. Newsom signs bill repealing doctor-muzzling COVID misinformation law he signed a year ago”
    Hmmm…
    Biden has decided the wall is fine and dandy after he claimed it was racist.
    Now Tooth-Some has done a 180 on a law he happily signed back when he thought it would score political points.
    The Dems have no morals or principles – just moist fingers in the wind and a ready supply of lies to feed the morons that support them.

    Don B 5:37 – Hillary is what she is. I doubt this represents any kind of change in her thinking going back to her days at university.
    The alarming part is the lefty stooge doing the interview not unloading on her and the the number of people we have to “get along with” that agree with her.
    There have always been Pol Pots and Maos, but usually the good citizens around that sort of person grab them by the neck and either throw them in jail or at least throw them out of the country.
    It’s when we see talk like that from some nutter and we’re expected to think they are rational and intelligent as “leaders” to be listened to that I begin to worry.
    Hillary herself is no threat to me in any way. The millions of people that would still support her after hearing that is.

    And they wonder why energy keeps costing more –
    Since January 2021, when Biden took office, the federal government has approved applications for permit to drill on just 157 new wells, according to the data compiled by Department of the Interior’s Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE). The figure represents a 29% decline compared to the same period under the Trump administration and a 55% decline compared to the same period under the Obama administration.

    re Don B’s 6:51 – Also consider that Biden has been drawing down our “emergency” stock of petro in a bid to keep gas prices from going any higher than they are. The emergency apparently is Biden’s sinking poll numbers.
    And of course Biden has allowed his commie friends in Venezuela to start producing more of their own oil.
    Nice.

    “Trump’s Save America political action committee has paid nearly $37 million to more than 60 law firms and individual attorneys since January 2022, Federal Election Commission records show. That amounts to more than half of the PAC’s total expenditures, according to an Associated Press analysis of campaign finance filings, and represents a staggering sum compared to other political organizations.”

    The big lie about the new green deal, creepy grampa joe is bought and sold by the chi coms –
    The U.S. is in no position to manufacture EVs on a grand scale. Currently, our ability to perform such tasks is limited and largely outsourced to foreign entities.
    With only one operating lithium mining facility, and hamstringing any efforts to open more, we are only able to produce enough for 80,000 EVs a year. We have one nickel mine. Our one and only cobalt mine shut down as quickly as it opened. Failure to open and run mines is due to heavy opposition and rigorous permitting processes.
    Perhaps worse than this is a dwindling workforce, with many slated to retire in the coming years and very few to replace them. The mining programs are being dropped from college campuses and recruitment numbers are low. Even if we had more functioning mines, they couldn’t run themselves.
    China is leaving everyone in the dust with their mineral extraction and production levels, which includes a massive workforce trained to perform these tasks. They have positioned themselves quite well, putting other nations at their mercy. Being dependent upon an adversarial player puts us at a major disadvantage, especially if they exploit their dominance and use critical minerals as a bargaining chip. They could limit or cut off our supply completely. Just ask Japan.
    Seventy percent of the world’s cobalt supply comes from the Democratic Republic of Congo, where human rights violations run rampant, especially when it concerns child labor. Are we willing to inflict more injustice to satisfy the needs of elites?

    A fabricated video claiming to be a BBC News report falsely said investigative journalists from Bellingcat, a Netherlands-based group, “concluded” that “Ukraine supplied the majority of the weaponry used by the Palestinian Hamas movement.” BBC and Bellingcat journalists say the video is fake.”
