“Immigrants soon find their place in urban
life, they soon adopt, externally, town manners and opinions, but for a
long time they remain foreign to civic thought. One cannot make a
social philosophy one’s own as easily as a new costume. . . More
menacing than barbarians storming the walls from without are the
seeming citizens within – those who are citizens in gesture,
but not
in thought.” —Ludwig von Mises, Socialism: An Economic and Sociological Analysis, p. 38 (1922) |

And the Winner Is, Germany! Francis Menton Just over six months ago, in December 2021, I asked the question that was on the tip of the tongue of everybody who follows the subject of the ongoing massive "green" transition to fossil-fuel-free energy. Actually, that's a lie. The question I asked was not on the tip of the tongue of everybody who follows the subject, or even of most of the people who follow the subject, for reasons that to me are completely inexplicable. The question was: "Which Country Or U.S. State Will Be The First To Hit The Green Energy Wall?" ![]() Supreme Court Targets the Real Enemy Jeffrey A. Tucker The flurry of rulings from the Supreme Court has everyone's head spinning. The most significant among them, even if it doesn't capture all the headlines, is West Virginia vs EPA. The majority opinion is impressive but the part I found truly wonderful is the concurring opinion by Neil Gorsuch. This is where we see things headed, toward a major and much-welcome curbing of the power of the administrative state. |

Supreme Court: EPA Cannot Regulate Carbon Emissions The Supreme Court ruled on an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) case regarding the Clean Air Act on Thursday. The ruling dealt a blow to the Biden administration's radical environmental policies. The Court ruled 6-3, limiting the EPA's ability to regulate emissions and air quality. The decision is a real setback for the Biden administration and its progressive allies, like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC), who have been fighting aggressively for a comprehensive, economy-crushing Green New Deal. | ![]() |
Former Attorney General William Barr Warns Western Civilization Facing Its Deepest Crisis Since Jesus Christ Western civilization faces its deepest crisis since the resurrection of Jesus Christ according to former U.S. Attorney General William Barr told a Christian conference in Chicago, Illinois, last weekend. "That's because our whole civilization is based on the Judeo-Christian tradition, and that tradition is under sustained attack by increasingly militant secular forces," Barr said. Among such forces, Barr said, were the many so-called "progressives." |

Hidden in the SCOTUS Opinion: The Definition of a Woman Tracy Beanz With everyone talking about the Roe v. Wade opinion, I expected this to get a little more attention. People don't really like to read hundreds of pages of legal opinion, but I do, and so I found a little gem that no one, and I mean no one, is talking about. The Supreme Court (SCOTUS) codified the definition of a woman in its opinion. Yes, you read that right. Not a biologist, not a doctor, not the CDC or the FDA, or a professor or scientist; SCOTUS finally got down in writing the answer to this age-old question. |

University of Pittsburgh Must End Research on Aborted Babies or Lose Funding Pennsylvania House Republicans have put a condition on providing funding for four universities: University of Pittsburgh, Penn State University, Temple University, and Lincoln University must certify that they are not engaging in research or experimentation using fetal tissue obtained from elective abortions. The University of Pittsburgh, commonly known as "Pitt," attracted criticism in 2021 when the public became aware that the school uses tissue from aborted human babies in its research. |

Special Counsel Slaps Energy Sec. Granholm With Hatch Act Violation After Free Beacon Report The U.S. Office of Special Counsel says Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm violated the Hatch Act when she participated in an interview with a Democratic billionaire's daughter and implored viewers to vote for Democrats. The government investigation found that Granholm "engaged in activity directed at the success of the Democratic Party" during the interview, which was first identified as a potential Hatch Act violation by the Washington Free Beacon last October. The Hatch Act forbids federal employees from participating in political campaigns. ![]() Oh Brother! Energy Department Blames Focus on 'Climate Crisis' for Ethics Oversight Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm weathered a storm of ethics complaints about her personal financial transactions this week. But when the Washington Free Beacon reached out for comment, her department said it can't concern itself with ethics issues because of the climate crisis. A Department of Energy spokeswoman said the agency has no time to respond to questions about Granholm's ethics violations because it is preoccupied with rising temperatures and "extreme weather events." |

Justice Kagan Warns Parts of East Coast Could Be 'swallowed by the ocean' In Dissent In EPA Case Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan warned parts of the East Coast could be "swallowed by the ocean" in a dissenting Supreme Court opinion in an environmental regulation case Thursday. "If the current rate of emissions continues, children born this year could live to see parts of the Eastern seaboard swallowed by the ocean," Kagan wrote in her dissent. Justices Stephen Breyer and Sonia Sotomayor joined Kagan's dissent in the 6-3 case. | Battier than the Three Stooges! |
Counterculture Festival's Electric Car Charging Stations Have a Dirty Little Secret Britain's counterculture Glastonbury Festival is hiding a dirty little secret about their EV charging stations, and it isn't that there aren't nearly enough of them. "This service is for emergency use only," the statement warned, "and cannot be guaranteed." Maybe you're thinking this is no big deal, and I'm inclined to agree. You can't just flip a switch and turn a rural area into a massive charging station for untold numbers of electric cars. But you can flip a switch, so to speak, to turn on the diesel generator that powers those chargers. Wait, what? Yeah, those green batteries are kept powered by the farm's diesel generator which is "switched on as and when it is required," according to the report. |

Dark Clouds On the Horizon for Electric Vehicles Ronald Stein There are a couple of dark clouds hanging over the optimistic growth of electric vehicles (EV's) that may decimate the supply chain of lithium to make the EV batteries, and how to safely transport EV's across wide oceans. 1) The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) is expected to classify lithium carbonate, chloride, and hydroxide as dangerous for human health. The decision is expected to be reached by early next year. 2) The recent (March 2022) sinking of a cargo ship with 4,000 vehicles, from a fire where electric-vehicle batteries were part of the reason, may be imposing an insurmountable insurance problem to bring those foreign made vehicles to America | |
U.S. Supreme Court Delivers a Major Win for the Reliability and Affordability of the Electric Grid Isaac Orr Today the U.S. Supreme Court issued a landmark decision in West Virginia vs. EPA, ruling that the Clean Air Act did not specifically authorize the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from power plants. Now, any greenhouse gas regulations would need specific authorization from Congress. At issue was the Clean Power Plan (CPP), an EPA regulation promulgated by the Obama administration which mandated that existing coal and natural gas power plants reduce their carbon dioxide emissions. There were many problems with this regulation, some of them were legal, and some of them were practical. |

Wind Industry Insider Laments 15 Years Waiting for the Bright "future that never seems to come" The people making wonder wind turbines are having a tough time. They thought they were picking the hottest new industry, saving the world, and expecting to make great money. Instead supply chains are in crisis, competition is fierce, and profit margins are razor tight. They know that the solar panel industry has largely gone to China, and worry that wind turbine manufacturing will do the same. What they don't seem to realize is that the reason the factories went to China is that the country isn't powered by wind turbines. No country powered by unreliable power is also a growing manufacturing base. | Remember, the Bidens (et al.) have heavy Chinese investments |
FOIAs Reveal Progressive Money Fueling FBI, DOJ, Leftist Activist and Election Official Coordination J. Christian Adams Freedom of information requests have uncovered oddball and opaque relationships between some state election officials, federal officials, corporations, progressive activists, and those trying to influence the conduct of those same election officials... The story begins with a series of freedom of information act requests aimed at a number of states to see if any election officials are tempted to apply for now-illegal money from the Mark Zuckerberg-funded Center for Technology and Civic Life. Such grants and the wild expenditures of these funds altered the course of the 2020 election. |

Drug Dealers Caught with Enough Fentanyl to Kill Millions Spend Two Days in Jail: Thank You, Democrats! Two drug dealers were arrested by California Highway Patrol (CHP) with 150,000 fentanyl pills, enough to kill roughly two million Americans. Where are they today? No one knows. They were set free two days later by a California judge. Benito Madrigal, 19, and Jose Zendejas, 25, were pulled over during a routine traffic stop that resulted in the cops finding 150 packages containing 1,000 fentanyl pills each. Each pill sells for $5, which works out to $750,000 worth of the deadly drugs. They were booked into the Tulare County jail. That's where things went wonky. |

France's Emmanuel Macron Drops Truth on Joe Biden About His Insane Energy Policies Bonchie A sea of mediocrity is currently flowing in Germany as the G7 leaders, including Joe Biden, have come together to once again virtue signal climate change and abortion, while generally making your life worse. As usual, there will be lots of tone-deaf pictures and statements, while zero real-world problems are solved. That's the G7 in a nutshell. But even among the Eurotrash that makes up most of the nations present, there's only so much they can take in terms of the massive oil crunch hitting the globe. On that topic, France's Emmanuel Macron decided to drop some truth on Biden about his insane energy policies. |

Michigan Governor Won't Stop Lying to Voters About Job Gains Michigan Democratic governor Gretchen Whitmer says she's added 25,000 "good-paying auto jobs" during her tenure. The state has actually lost thousands of auto jobs on her watch, labor statistics show. In a June 2 press release, Whitmer said she was "proud" to announce Michigan has "added nearly 25,000 auto jobs since I took office." The Democrat roughly three weeks later repeated the claim, writing in a "mobility and electrification" fact sheet that she "is ensuring Michigan lives up to its legacy as the place that put the world on wheels by creating nearly 25,000 good-paying auto jobs." |

'I Literally Lost Organs': New Bill Aims to Protect Minors From Gender Experimentation Five years ago, Chloe decided she was transgender. Last year, at the ripe old age of 16, she abandoned the flirtation with transgender ideology and embraced her natural sex. In the intervening four years, she had both her breasts removed. "I was failed by the system," she now says. "I literally lost organs." If a new bill becomes law, teens like Chloe will soon be able to sue the doctors who performed permanent, life-altering surgeries on them while they were underage. |

The Dobbs Decision,
Explained Rob Bluey I think people need to focus not only on its result. And, of course, people have their own views about abortion and whether human life should be protected before birth. But when it comes to the Supreme Court doing something, let's say rather than Congress doing it, we also need to focus on how it was done... Roe v. Wade was probably the most disgraced, undermined, criticized, embarrassing decision in the history of the Supreme Court. And its biggest critics have been constitutional scholars who support access to abortion. None of us ought to want to have a flawed, really egregiously wrong decision like that on the books – no matter what our opinion about abortion. |

The Key Ways Justice
Thomas Vanquished Gun Grabbers in his Bruen Decision Victoria Taft It couldn't have been more perfect than Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas penning the definitive decision that the right to carry guns on one's person for self-defense is inherent for all Americans. First of all, Thomas has been after the court to take up more gun rights cases. He used his considerable influence with Chief Justice John Roberts to continue looking for gun rights cases to take. The New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc., et al. v. Bruen and the state of New York was the obvious choice. |

Yes, Biden Is Hiding His Plan to
Rig the 2022 Midterm Elections Mollie Hemingway President Biden really does not want the public to know about his federal takeover of election administration. Dozens of members of Congress have repeatedly asked for details, to no avail. Good government groups, members of the media, and private citizens have filed requests under the Freedom of Information Act. Not a single one has been responded to. All signs indicate a concerted effort to keep the public in the dark until at least after the November midterm elections. The lack of transparency and responsiveness is so bad that the Department of Justice and some of its agencies have been repeatedly sued for the information. |

Amazon.com Inc. and Walmart Inc., America's two biggest private employers, have said they're thinning out their hourly workforces through attrition. Jobless claims, while still low, have risen slightly, based on a four-week moving average that smooths out weekly volatility. |

Global-Scale COVID-19 Fraud Is

"In brief, I'm seeing fraud on a global scale, of which the drug companies are just part," Yeadon [said].

Biden Ahead of Schedule in
Destroying U.S. Offshore Oil Production David Middleton When Brandon was campaigning from his basement, he promised to halt all offshore drilling and leasing. In reaction to this, the National Offshore Industries Association (NOIA) prepared a report, projecting two scenarios: 1) Halting the permitting of new wells on existing leases; 2) Halting new lease sales after the end of the current five year program (2017-2022). Since occupying the White House, Brandon did not manage to carry out the first promise. If the government had halted permitting of operations on existing leases, they would have gotten their @$$es sued off. However, the Brandon Maladministration has been worse than expected in the area of lease sales. |

Is the Green Energy Climate Cabal
Crumbling? As we know now, Merkel adopted a 'not in my backyard" approach and increased fossil fuel imports from Russia. Her green policies were a primary driver of President Biden lifting the sanctions on the Nord Stream 2 pipeline. Many, including Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, believe Biden caving to Merkel emboldened Russian President Vladimir Putin in his invasion of Ukraine. Food and energy are the underlying causes of most wars, and the current conflict is no exception. However, the war is causing Germany's new government to take a hard look at the pro-scarcity green energy policies they have imposed on their population for years. So Germany is firing up coal plants. |

It underscores how divisive the issue remains in Japan, the only member of the Group of Seven major industrialized nations that does not recognize same-sex unions. |

Woke Jesuit School in Big Trouble
With the Bishop For Jesuit education in Worcester, Mass., a line was drawn in the sand by Bishop Robert McManus on June 16. That's when he stripped the Nativity School of Worcester, a Jesuit middle school, of its right to be called a Catholic school. The school was the brainchild of administrators at the College of the Holy Cross. At issue are its Gay Pride and Black Lives Matter flags. Promulgating his decree, the bishop wrote, "the flying of these flags in front of a Catholic school sends a mixed, confusing and scandalous message to the public about the church's stance on these important moral and social issues." |

Courts to Determine If Schools Can Hide Information from Parents About Their Kids Nicole Russell There are school policies and state and federal laws that outline parameters for transparency between parents, students, and schools. They are meant to protect everyone, but particularly the child, and they are rooted in the idea that parental authority is paramount, even in schools. Yet this fundamental concept seems to be corroding under the guise that woke schools and teachers know best. In Pennsylvania recently, three parents filed a federal lawsuit alleging that their children's first grade teacher violated their rights, not to mention school policy and state law, by teaching their children about "gender dysphoria and transgender transitioning." |

And you can be both genders, neither gender, gender fluid, or change as you go depending on your feelings." Human Rights Campaign is a Washington-based LGBTQ advocacy organization. "In the meantime, in California, mental health workers or somebody who's working with the school can actually change a child's gender category without parent permission." |

How SCOTUS' Upcoming Climate Ruling
Could Defang Washington The Supreme Court is expected to issue a ruling this month hobbling the Biden administration's efforts to rein in greenhouse gases – but its impact could weaken Washington's power to oversee wide swaths of American life well beyond climate change. The upcoming decision on the Environmental Protection Agency's climate oversight offers the conservative justices an opportunity to undermine federal regulations on a host of issues, from drug pricing and financial regulations to net neutrality. Critics of the EPA have clamored for the high court to do just that, by declaring it unlawful for federal agencies to make "major" decisions without clear authorization from Congress. |

Russia's Ukrainian Invasion May End
the Monomaniacal Focus on Carbon Emissions Clarice Feldman Every now and then droplets of reality splash on the noggins of the world's big thinkers. Russia's invasion of Ukraine seems to have highlighted – to all but the Biden administration – the folly of a single-minded attempt to curb carbon emissions, emissions which by the way may be more of a boon to the well-being of the earth and its inhabitants than not. In Foreign Policy, Ted Nordhaus suggests the invasion may end the cold war on fossil fuels. He argues that global leaders have had too great a focus on carbon emissions while ignoring questions of affordability and reliability of energy supply, and those are policies that most hurt the poor. |

Germany to Fire Up Coal Plants as
Russia Turns Down the Gas; May Propose Heating Cap, Reconsider Fracking Ban Germany must limit its use of gas for electricity production and prioritize the filling of storage facilities to compensate for a drop in supply from Russia, Economy Minister Robert Habeck said Sunday. In a move that goes against the principles of his environmentally-friendly Green Party, the country will also have to increase the burning of coal, Habeck said. Germany has come under intense criticism in the past, particularly from the United States, for its reliance on cheap Russian energy sources, which Washington has always seen as a security risk for Europe. |

of Illinois and Risk of Brownouts Looms Unquestionably, however, the rush to green energy is playing a major underlying role in rising prices and capacity shortfall. Both Illinois and the federal government put a target on the back of the whole fossil fuel industry, stifling investment therein and quickening the closure of traditional power sources. And renewable sources just aren't ready to fill the void. |

Climate Czar Kerry Ripped Over
Energy Claim: 'We absolutely don't' Need To Drill For More Oil Kerry, speaking at an event hosted by the University of Southern California's Center of Public Diplomacy last Friday, railed against fossil fuels, saying that energy security concerns are "driving" complaints that the U.S. needs to perform more domestic drilling and return to coal. "No, we don't," he said. "We absolutely don't. And we have to prevent a false narrative from entering into this…" |

Elon Musk says Biden, Democratic
Party 'controlled by unions': 'Next-level insanity' Musk took particular issue with the Democratic Party's strong relationship with union leadership... He reiterated, "They have so much power over the White House that they can exclude Tesla from an EV summit – insane." Musk took issue with Biden praising GM CEO Mary Barra at the EV summit for leading the "EV revolution," in a quarter where GM delivered just 26 electric vehicles. "That's some next-level insanity," Musk said. |

The Environmental Impact of Lithium

Now Biden is planning to transition the transportation sector to electric vehicles that are powered by lithium batteries and require other critical metals where China dominates the market. |

India and China Coal Production
Surging By 700M Tons Per Year: That's Greater Than All U.S. Coal Output Robert Bryce If you think the world is moving beyond coal, think again. The post-Covid economic rebound and surging electricity demand have resulted in big increases in coal prices and coal demand. Since January, the Newcastle benchmark price for coal has doubled. And over the past few weeks, China and India have announced plans to increase their domestic coal production by a combined total of 700 million tons per year. |

Fauci Won’t Commit to ‘Stop Funding Chinese’ Research with U.S. Tax Dollars Dr. Anthony Fauci said he’s unable to commit to stopping federal funding from going to Chinese scientific research, even as the U.S. intelligence community assesses the Chinese regime as America’s top adversary...

Smithfield Plans to Close
California Plant Over Costly Red Tape and Regulations Smithfield Foods is withdrawing from California by early next year, citing red tape like that from Proposition 12 and the generally high costs of doing business in the state. Products such as bacon, sausage, hot dogs, dinner sausage, bone-In-hams, and sliced hams, will cease being produced at Smithfield's Farmer John meat packing plant in Vernon, CA... Smithfield said it was heading for the exits "due to the escalating cost of doing business in California." |

Uvalde Shows Once Again
That Cops Are Just Armed Bureaucrats Steven Greenhut As Americans debate the proper response to the horrific mass shooting of schoolchildren in Uvalde, Texas, it's important to dispense with our fanciful ideas about how police agencies operate. Toward that end, Uvalde's school police chief and local police officials have provided Americans with a remarkable case study of real-world ineptitude... Essentially, law enforcement behaved like armed bureaucrats. Large numbers of cops showed up. They hid behind walls to protect themselves. They milled around, conferred, and secured the perimeter, as the shooter emptied his weapon on helpless kids. They certainly wrote reports. As one headline noted, "Police delays may have deprived Texas schoolchildren of lifesaving care, experts say." That's a safe bet. |

"Sovietization" is perhaps the best diagnosis of the pathology. It refers to the subordination of policy, expression, popular culture, and even thought to ideological mandates. |

That is because Australia's deep green politicians are directly responsible for the energy prices Aussies are experiencing, as they try to stay warm through this Antarctic blast. Green political hostility towards coal and gas development created Australia's energy shortage problem, by discouraging investment in affordable energy resources, and choking off the supply of bank finance for building and maintenance of coal plants. |

Her Republican colleague, Scalise, was shot during a 2017 congressional baseball game by a left-wing domestic terrorist who was targeting Republicans.

The Surprising Ways Biden's NIMBY
Energy Policy Could Affect You Sooner Than You Think Stacey Lennox As President Biden chooses to beg some of the world's most notorious dictators to drill for more oil, prices continue to rise even when they agree. If you haven't picked up on the new energy strategy, you can think of it as a "Not in my backyard," or NIMBY, energy policy. Instead of pulling the abundant oil and natural gas out of our own soil, the Biden administration will erect unreliable solar and wind farms and import the fossil fuels that run society from countries where the extraction methods are far more environmentally destructive. |

That put the so-called gun lobby at 33 on the list, far behind other industries, like real estate and accounting. Scalise's corporate-connected and PAC donors tell a similar story.

Reagan Delivers Famous 'Boys of Pointe du Hoc' D-Day Speech On June 6, 1984, President Ronald Reagan spoke at the dedication of the U.S. Ranger Monument at Pointe du Hoc, France. In the audience were 62 of the surviving Rangers who attacked the cliffs of France 40 years before. These words are from Reagan’s speech that day. “We stand on a lonely, windswept point on the northern shore of France. The air is soft, but 40 years ago at this moment, the air was dense with smoke and the cries of men, and the air was filled with the crack of rifle fire and the roar of cannon. At dawn, on the morning of the 6th of June, 1944, 225 Rangers jumped off the British landing craft and ran to the bottom of these cliffs. Their mission was one of the most difficult and daring of the invasion: to climb these sheer and desolate cliffs and take out the enemy guns...” |

California Passes Bill to Prevent
Schools from Reporting Students with Behavioral Issues to Law Enforcement On the heels of the Uvalde school shooting, California has passed a bill removing requirements for schools to report threats against school officials to law enforcement. On Thursday, the bill, SB-1273 was passed by the California State Senate, merely days after the tragedy in Uvalde. Lawmakers claim the bill is an attempt at racial equity, stating that minority students are disproportionately reported to law enforcement for violent or disruptive behavior. Instead of mandatory reporting of violent behavioral issues to authorities, school officials will now have the option to deal with them internally. Like most woke policies, the consequences of SB-1273 are dangerous. |
What could go wrong? |
Poll: Strong Majority Favor Arming
Teachers The investigation into how everything went so horribly wrong in Uvalde is ongoing and will likely take quite a while to sort through. But the one thing's been obvious from the beginning is that it took far too long for someone with a gun to make it into that classroom and put down the maniac who was killing innocent children and teachers. With that in mind, a question that's been hotly debated in the past is back on the table once again. What if there had already been someone with a gun in the classroom when the shooter arrived? |

But the Big Guy couldn't quite manage to get 'Finlandize' out, so we got 'Findalize,' and by this point, the WhiteHouse.gov transcriber, who must get combat pay when it comes time to transcribe a Biden speech, had apparently given up in despair, as the transcript leaves 'Findalize' there without even attempting to clear up what Old Joe was actually trying to say." ![]() Did Lyin' Biden Do It Again?

He told a tale of applying to the Academy with a letter from then-Delaware Senator J. Caleb Boggs. However, in 1965, Biden graduated from the University of Delaware. He wouldn't have been applying for graduate courses at the Naval Academy because there were none. The tale was an odd one, mixing his dream of playing football with his interest in the Naval Academy. |

Federal Employees Getting Money from Drug Companies They're Supposed to Oversee At issue here is the flow of money between the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the companies and groups it works with.

"That largess of taxpayer money buys a lot of favor and clout within the scientific, research, and healthcare industries. However… hundreds of millions of dollars in payments also flow the other way.

"In addition, as DHS moves forward with the projects announced today, it continues to call on Congress to cancel remaining appropriations for barrier system construction and instead specifically fund smart border security measures, like border technology at and between ports of entry, that are proven to be more effective at improving safety and security at the border. |

New Jersey Officials: Democrat Phil
Murphy Improperly Gave $10M in Coronavirus Funds to Illegal Aliens As Breitbart News reported last year, Murphy provided the state's nearly half a million illegal aliens with rounds of stimulus checks to the sum of tens of millions of dollars – paid for by American taxpayers – that was meant as coronavirus relief for Americans. Now, the state's Office of Legislative Services is accusing Murphy of improperly allocating $10 million to fund stimulus checks for illegal aliens in New Jersey. |

Sounds of Dynamite Blasting, Piles
of Rubble at Turbine Site In the hills of this town and portions of neighboring Hanover, a major green-energy project has taken on the look of an environmental disaster. Concrete litters parts of the landscape while nearby residents worry streams and creeks are becoming contaminated as blasting activities have created a scar for homeowners and wildlife. What was once a quiet and serene natural setting has become an assembly line operation due to faulty concrete foundations that were poured and are now needed to be removed as part of the Ball Hill Wind Farm. ![]() Clinton County Commissioners Lay Out Objections To Proposed Solar Power Generation Project In a Wednesday press release, each Clinton County commissioner stated objections to a Chicago company's proposal to build a 300-megawatt solar power generation facility in southern Clinton County. "I remain concerned about the lack of oversight, maintenance and upkeep over a long, 30-plus-years installation as well as end-of-life removal and disposal of the equipment," Woods continued. "Agreement has not been reached on essential terms for Clinton County, including substantial increases in all setbacks and authority to approve or deny stormwater mitigation plans. This [stipulation] agreement does not protect the county and its citizens who are directly affected. We do not want this for our Clinton County residents." |

Biden Education Head Defends
Biological Boys In Girls Sports, Not Telling Parents About Trans Kids President Joe Biden's Education Secretary Michael Cardona said biological males should be able to compete against girls in school sports and that schools should not have to tell parents about their child's gender transition... The education secretary made headlines earlier this year after reports surfaced that he solicited the controversial National School Boards Association letter last fall that conflated concerned parents with domestic terrorists. |

Teachers Explain How They Push 'Gender Lessons' On Young Children Teachers across the country revealed the strategies they use to teach young children about gender ideology in a Friday article published by the Washington Post. Teachers discussed the various ways they are injecting gender-related discussions into their lessons, including comments about using hormones to stop menstrual periods and declining to state that sexual anatomy is gender-specific, according to the Washington Post. One transgender teacher makes a point of telling students about the process of gender transitions, including with personal testimony. |

Study Shows Mask Usage Did Not
Protect Wearer and Those Wearing Masks Had Higher Death Rates A study comparing data between counties in Kansas found that those that mandated masks for COVID-19 had a higher rate of death than those that did not. The author, German physician Zacharias Foegen, chose Kansas because that state allowed each of its 105 counties to decide whether or not to require masks. A total of 81 counties decided not to implement the measure. The paper published by the journal Medicine, "The Foegen Effect: A Mechanism by Which Facemasks Contribute to the COVID-19 Case Fatality Rate," concluded that "contrary to the accepted thought that fewer people are dying because infection rates are reduced by masks, this was not the case," National File reported. |

The Word No One Mentions
When Discussing School Shootings Michael James It happens again and everybody runs to their corner and restates a formerly held position. Liberals blame guns. Conservatives want to beef up security. No one asks the central question; why are kids shooting up schools? Schools are the target. Schools are the objective. Schools are the focal point. What are schools doing that makes them so hated?... Narcissists' teaching budding narcissists' is not a healthy diet for the soul of our country. |

A Cabinency of Dunces Victor Davis Hanson As the nation sinks inexplicably into self-created crisis after crisis, debate rages whether President Joe Biden is incompetent, mean-spirited, or an ideologue who feels the country's mess is his success. A second national discussion revolves around who actually is overseeing the current national catastrophe, given Biden's frequent bewilderment and cognitive challenges. But one area of agreement is the sheer craziness of Biden's Cabinet appointments, who have translated his incoherent ideology into catastrophic governance. |

Every Day Is Memorial Day at Dover
Air Force Base The first stop back on U.S. soil for American service members killed overseas is Dover Air Force Base in Delaware. It's where their families wait, where VIPs gather and where the honor guard is called. It’s at this site where members of the Air Force mortuary affairs team have the solemn task of preparing the remains of America's war dead for burial. Every day is Memorial Day here. "There's not another mission exactly like it in the military," said Maj. Matthew Knight, senior chaplain at Dover. |

Flashback 30 Years: Guns Were in
Schools... and Nothing Happened J. Christian Adams The millennial generation might be surprised to learn that theirs is the first without guns in school. Just 30 years ago, high school kids rode the bus with rifles and shot their guns at high school rifle ranges. After another school shooting, it's time to ask: what changed? Cross guns off the list of things that changed in thirty years. In 1985, semi-automatic rifles existed, and a semi-automatic rifle was used in Florida. Guns didn't suddenly decide to visit mayhem on schools. Guns can't decide. We can also cross the Second Amendment off the list. It existed for over 200 years before this wickedness unfolded. Nothing changed in the Constitution. That leaves us with some uncomfortable possibilities remaining. |

Guns Aren't Radically Deadlier Than
They Were 50 Years Ago, But Our Sick Culture Is Elle Reynolds After another school shooting – this one at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, leaving at least 21 victims dead – politicians like President Joe Biden are already capitalizing on the tragedy to push their anti-gun agenda. They'll tell you that the vague category of "assault weapons" has no place in American citizens' hands, or seize the moment to vilify "the semiautomatic weapons that terrorize us" (as a New York Times essay put it). But these firearms have been accessible for decades – far before school shootings were such an unfortunately common occurrence. |

Narrative Fail: White Supremacists
Are NOT the Most Likely Mass Murderers Leave it to Joe Biden to ignore facts in his quest to distract from the results of his failed leadership. He blamed white supremacy, along with (of course) the gun lobby and "assault weapons" following the Buffalo supermarket murder spree last week. Ironically, less than 10% of mass public shootings have any ties at all to white supremacy. And whites commit less than their proportionate number of attacks. But the politically incorrect truth doesn't help Biden, Democrats, or their click-hungry allies in the media. In fact, the data show Middle Easterners make up less than one-half of one percent of Americans, yet they commit 9% of mass public shootings. That's more than those committed by the "white supremacists" Joe loves to go on about. |

Mass Shooting Facts to Shut Down
Your Lib Sister and Her Annoying, Man-Bunned, Non-Binary 'Boy' Friend at Your Memorial Day BBQ Kevin Downey Jr. I bet Don Lemon only prays when there is a mass shooting. "Please, God, let the gunman be white." The lefty sitzpinkler at CNN came up with snake eyes yesterday because the shooter is Hispanic. That changes the narrative for the left. So, now the harridans from The View have their show prep for the next few days: go after the "gun lobby," Republican politicians, and those big, scary "assault rifles," or as they now call them, "weapons of war." Anyone engaging in this sort of boring drivel doesn't really want to stop the problem of mass shootings. They want to take our guns and have Republicans voted out. |

West Virginia Police Say Woman with
CCW Stopped a Mass Shooting, Saved Lives Charleston Police Department's Chief of Detectives Tony Hazelett credited an unnamed Charleston concealed carry license holder with stopping the threat following a shooting Wednesday evening. Police say Dennis Butler returned after being lectured about speeding through an apartment complex where kids were playing. He parked his car and began shooting at a graduation party with an AR-15. A woman among the group of 30 to 40 people saw Butler, 37, in his back seat firing on the group. Instead of running, Hazelett said, she engaged the threat, shooting and killing him. |

Illegals Released By DHS Were Not
Tested for COVID-19 Before Taking Commercial Flights A Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of Inspector General investigation found many migrants who illegally crossed the U.S.-Mexico border and later released by DHS were not tested for COVID-19 before they boarded commercial flights to other cities in the country. DHS has been relying on non-governmental organizations to test people for COVID-19 released by Border Patrol but there are towns who either don't have a non-governmental organization to conduct the testing or they do not have the capacity. |

2020
Census Grossly Undercounted Heartland States While Overcounting
Deep-Blue Areas; Will Shape Political Landscape for a Decade Randy DeSoto Maybe it's coincidence or something else altogether, but a report released Thursday by the U.S. Census Bureau showed that several red states were undercounted in the 2020 census, while about an equal number of blue states were overcounted. One practical impact is that red states likely received less representation than they should in Congress, while blue states received more. And the kicker is the situation cannot be remedied until after the next census in 2030. |

European Parliament Rejects
Discussion on Christian Persecution Raymond Ibrahim Once again, a large governmental body has exposed itself as morally bankrupt if not wholly bereft of legitimacy. On May 18, 2022, the European Parliament, one of the European Union's legislative bodies, rejected a proposal to discuss the elephant in the room: the rampant persecution of Christians around the world. The proposal came in response to the May 12 stoning and burning to death of Deborah Samuel Jacob (Yakuba), a Christian student in Nigeria murdered by Muslims for thanking Jesus for her performance in a test, and, therefore, precipitating an allegation that she had somehow "blasphemed" against Muhammad. |

We are disappointed with the Supreme Court's decision to not vacate the stay, but we are confident that we will be successful in reinstating the injunction after this matter is heard on the merits at the 5th Circuit. |

It's Not Just Spending – Biden's
Record of 69 Major Regulations Are Driving Inflation Too Jonathan Ingram The highest inflation in 40 years isn't driven just by record federal spending, a record government-driven labor shortage and record restrictions on US energy production. President Joe Biden's record regulation spree is also pushing prices higher. Stopping the bureaucratic assault on the economy is essential to taming inflation and giving families relief. The role of regulations in the inflation crisis is largely overlooked but shouldn't be. When Washington wraps the economy in red tape, businesses must spend massive sums on compliance. |

Exclusive: State Farm Exec
Apologizes to Angry Agents, Says 'We Made a Mistake With Our Involvement' With GenderCool State Farm agents across the country fielded angry phone calls on Monday from customers who were either threatening to cancel their policies or who flat-out canceled them after hearing news that the company had partnered with The GenderCool Project to donate books regarding transgenderism and gender fluidity to schools in order to "increase representation of LGBTQ+ books and support our communities in having challenging, empowering, and important conversations with children Age 5+." ![]() State Farm Pulls Support from Program Sending Transgender Books for 5-Year-Olds, Responding to Outraged Agents Mary Chastain State Farm sent out a mass email to their staff today stating "we will no longer support that program" after they were exposed for supporting a project to push LGBTQ books into schools. A source tells me "the agents were really upset when we found out."... Will Hild told reporters: "We would hope State Farm would... cooperate with the governor's office or law enforcement in [Florida] and retrieve any of these books that may have been donated to public schools that by law now do not belong there." ![]() State Farm: Creepy Grooming Neighbor Is There Toni Williams Lord have mercy. These creepy groomers are like roaches. You stomp on one and a thousand more arrive. Parents need to be hypervigilant. Just as soon as you know all about grooming school teachers and the cretins at Disney, here comes your insurance agent providing gender books to your kids. Why on Earth would State Farm want to get involved with gender and LGBTQ issues? Make the world around us kinder? That's easy: be kind to everyone you meet. But, the insurance company decided not to take the temperature of the nation's parents and go for the creepy groomer vibe. |

Solar Showdown: Indian Villagers
Reject Greenpeace's Useless FAKE Electricity Eco-zealots have attempted to ram wind and solar power down the throats of Third World governments under the auspices of saving the planet and purportedly with the purpose of dragging millions out of poverty. But it never takes their targets long to work out that wind and solar power are both insanely expensive and hopelessly unreliable; sitting in the dark, night after night, generally does the trick. |

The ATF is Inflating 'Ghost Gun'
Statistics to Secure More Funding from Congress Lee Williams The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives is counting the number of Google searches for "ghost guns" claiming that the data supports their theory that homemade firearms are skyrocketing in popularity among criminals. The "ghost gun" crisis, which the ATF itself ginned up, appears to be nothing more than the agency's latest and most desperate attempt to increase its dwindling budget... The report repeats bogus "ghost gun" claims, which have already been debunked by dozens of senior law enforcement sources and a congressional whistleblower. In other words, ATF submitted a report to the President and to the Attorney General of the United States containing information it knew was false. |

Plan to Demolish 4 Hydroelectric
Dams on Klamath River Stirs Debate Over Coveted West Water California's second-largest river has sustained Native American tribes with plentiful salmon for millennia, provided upstream farmers with irrigation water for generations and served as a haven for retirees who built dream homes along its banks. Now, plans to demolish four hydroelectric dams on the Klamath's lower reaches – the largest such demolition project in U.S. history – have placed those competing interests in stark relief. Tribes, farmers, homeowners and conservationists all have a stake in the dams' fate. |

Biden Admin Wants Kids to Starve if
Schools Don't Let Boys Use Girls Showers and Bathrooms Matt Margolis The National School Lunch Program feeds approximately 30 million kids nationwide daily. But now, getting access to federal funds for the program will come with a huge catch: K-12 schools will have to allow boys into girls' bathrooms and locker rooms if they want to continue receiving funds for the school lunch program... "It seems to be playing politics with feeding poor kids, which is really unfortunate," John Elcesser, executive director of the Indiana Non-Public Education Association told The Federalist. "Because if a school feels like they cannot participate because it's in conflict with their mission or values, if a religious exemption is not granted, you're taking away a program that's feeding low-income kids." |
