   George,
   It looks to me that the government of CA has no interest in allowing competition to reduce the rate of rise of electric rates. Such as permitting nat gas and coal power plants. Yet the voters keep voting for those politicians who approve this insanity. It’s unfortunate that there isn’t a 2-tier system to allow those insane voters to pay an even higher kwh rate, and those who oppose the insanity pay a subsequently lower rate.
   Ain’t representative govt and monopolies great!?

   Now the Hillbilly is going to say you’re “whining” about the cost of electricity.
   He’s beginning to sound like that French gal who had her noggin removed after dissing the peasants who didn’t like the high price of bread.
   But don’t you worry – help is on the way from the govt.! And you know what Reagan said about the scariest words in the English language.
   They gots a new plan for the heavy users of juice (think e-cars) to lower their costs while increasing it on the folks that don’t use that much. Cool!

   The gang that couldnt shoot straight –
   Shortly after Kamala Harris released her policy agenda on Sunday evening, users on X spotted something in the metadata: Much of the language appears to have been lifted from Joe Biden’s campaign website.
   On Sunday night, X user Corinne Green pointed out that the issues section of Harris’s website contained metadata with language urging voters to reelect Joe Biden. This language was visible when links to the campaign site were shared, and in the website’s description on Google searches.

   Another big miss by the hyena –
   By a wide margin of 59 to 30 percent, a majority of likely voters approve of former President Donald Trump’s recent visit to Arlington National Cemetery at the invitation of 13 Gold Star families.
   To the surprise of no one, Democrats and the corporate media freaked out over this and quickly joined forces to smear Trump as a political opportunist spitting on America’s veterans by politicizing Arlington. He was especially condemned over the fact there was photography during the event.

   Let’s pause for a moment to remember David Prowse, actor, who put on the Darth suit and said all the lines only to find Lucas, Prince of Darkness, dubbed in his preferred voice, one of the finest actors of the time.
   Prowse died in 2020.

   Oh, lookie here – just in time for the “debate”.
   “On the eve of a critical debate between Ms Harris and her Republican rival, 10 former top US military chiefs released a letter calling the vice-president the only candidate “who is fit to serve” in the country’s highest office.”
   Yessir!
   “While Ms Harris had “demonstrated her ability to take on the most difficult national security challenges in the Situation Room and on the international stage”, they wrote, Trump posed “a danger to our national security and democracy”.”
   Say what!!??
   Just what in hell is “take on”?
   Sit and listen and nod the head?
   These twits might want to review the fact that Trump was POTUS for 4 years and those years marked a time of relative peace for our country and the world compared to now.
   Is Harris going to wave the letter in front of the cameras just as Biden did with the BS letter about Hunter’s laptop being “Russian dis-info”?
   It is truly sad to see how people we are supposed to trust openly lie about this.
   The Dems want it both ways – Kamala was the quite the heroic leader, but Kamala can’t be blamed for anything because she was just the veep and didn’t do anything.

   If anyone wants to see how wack things have become in the newsroom, check out WaPo’s reaction to Hill getting pulled over for speeding and compare their twisted version of the event to the reality of the video.
   “How police treated Tyreek Hill should frighten everyone with car keys”
   B and S.
   An entitled, spoiled, rich, brat was was pulled over for speeding and refused to obey the officers.
   “In a portion of the footage, an officer is shown pulling a car over and telling Hill, the driver, to roll his window back down. After the officer repeats the request, the situation gets more tense as Hill is pulled from his car and placed in handcuffs, face down on the street.”
   This is so far from the truth, it ends up being a lie.
   Most goobers won’t watch the whole video but simply go by the headlines.
   And they want Musk arrested…??

   and
   https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2024/09/10/tyreek-hill-police-misconduct/
   And they wonder why intelligent people no longer trust the news media.

   Another foreign policy triumph for whomever is actually pulling the levers in the White House:
   “According to the Washington Post, Blinken’s trip to Haiti is an “unusual attempt to boost the country’s interim leader and deliver a message of support for a US-backed international policing mission that has so far failed to make a significant impact.””

    It looks to me that the government of US has no interest in allowing incompetence to reduce the rate of rise of immigration rates. cf. Germany below:
    “BERLIN, Sept 9 (Reuters) – Germany’s government announced plans to impose tighter controls at all of the country’s land borders in what it called an attempt to tackle irregular migration and protect the public from threats such as Islamist extremism.”
    https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/germany-put-temporary-controls-all-land-borders-source-says-2024-09-09/
    My, my. Those darn Germans didn’t allow the Jews to out-migrate at one time, now they’ve changed the rules on in-migration.
    Could be the start of a Contagious Outreach Vilifying Immigrants to Deutschland (another case of COVID).
    Mike Shedlock may go a little overboard at this stage of the game, or not.
    https://mishtalk.com/economics/germany-suspends-schengen-immigration-repercussion-across-the-entire-eu/
    “For the first time in EU history, Germany is at the forefront of immigration suspension. Other EU countries will follow.”
    But fortunately, not the good ol’ US of A. No siree.

    It’s been pointed out that when they stuff a shit-load of 3rd worlders into a small town, the property values go way down and the residents who want out sell much cheaper than they normally would. Enter Black Rock to take advantage of the situation. What a coincidence!

    E Fox 5:35 – Gasp! So – Orban has led the way in Hungary. Gee, I thought everyone in the EU thought he was a bad guy.
    The money pile must be starting to hit the bottom. Funny how all the magical thoughts of the leftists start to shatter when reality shows up.
    Maybe the latest results from the elections in Germany are starting to reverberate?
    The crime stats alone in Europe clearly show they stupidly imported a problem that the proles had to bear the brunt of. Their Dear Leaders have armed bodyguards and gated villas to stave off the issue. Even the dullest of goobers at the bottom will possibly start to understand they’ve been played.
