[Argentina just revived its housing and real estate markets by eliminating rent controls. Most people with a 3-digit IQ know that govt control of rents totally mangles the housing market, constricting supply and reducing the quality of properties already rented. Yet both our federal and several state governments are proposing rent controls in order "to make housing more affordable" for the financially disadvantaged. It, of course, does nothing of the sort. So my question to all of you astute observers of the nation's political goings on is 'Where on the evil-to-butt stupid spectrum do most main street Democrats reside?' gjr]

Vladimir Putin would not have invaded Ukraine if Donald Trump had been president, Boris Johnson has suggested, saying the world is a better place when the United States has a strong leader.
The former prime minister believes that Trump’s unpredictability would have been enough to persuade Putin not to take the risk of going to war with a sovereign country.
In an exclusive interview with The Telegraph ahead of the publication of his memoir, Unleashed, he said: “From the Kremlin’s point of view, there was a real risk that Trump would have construed an attack on a European country as an affront to America and to the world order, and might have come down hard.”
He says: “One of the virtues of Trump is his sheer unpredictability. That’s one of the reasons why I look at how he actually behaved on foreign affairs and I contrast it with what people say about him.
“He expelled 60 Russian spies [after the Salisbury poisonings]. He was much tougher on Syria than the Democrat administrations. He was tougher on the IRGC [Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps] and then he gave the Ukrainians the Javelin missile.”
“I don’t think that he will want to go down in history as the guy who launched his second presidential term not by making America great but by making the Soviet Union great again.
“All human institutions require a leader. In the world, America is the leader. And in my view, the world is a happier, more prosperous place when you have a strong America and a strong leader, and when people feel that some sort of order is being maintained.”
When did he last speak to Trump? “Quite recently.” And when did he last speak to Volodymyr Zelensky? “Also quite recently.”

“Biden-Harris Admin Threw Over $40 Billion At An Internet Buildout — Three Years Later Not A Single Project Is Underway”
“…largely due to a slew of regulatory hurdles, such as requirements for internet providers to participate in green initiatives and employ unionized workforces.”
Hurdles? Ha – those are features, not bugs.
and…
“The broadband expansion program has also drawn comparisons to the Biden-Harris administration’s electric vehicle (EV) charger expansion initiative, that, as of April 2024, had built just seven stations despite the $7.5 billion the November 2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law allocated it.”
“The EV charger expansion program was delayed in part due to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) requirements, with the Department of Transportation saying applicants should promise to engage in “intentional outreach to underserved communities” by hosting “neighborhood block parties.””
Of course – block parties! Let’s get our priorities straight, here.
