Fifty people were injured onboard a Boeing plane Monday, with some smashing into the ceiling when it “suddenly nosedived” mid-flight. This
marks the latest disaster for Boeing after a wheel fell off one of their planes mid-flight and another skidded off the runway just last week. As Newsweek noted, a spokesperson for the Chilean airline LATAM told news outlets that a “technical problem” on the flight had harmed passengers and crew members. The airline also claimed the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner experienced a “strong movement” but refused to elaborate. The airplane was traveling from Sydney, Australia, to Auckland, New Zealand, when...

Joining the groups of outspoken activists who attach themselves to prominent works of art, Pope Francis has glued himself to the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel to protest climate change. "We
must stop climate change now!" the 86-year-old pontiff said as he hung precariously from the ceiling that features priceless paintings by famed artist Michelangelo. "There is no greater danger to all of God's children than the threat of the temperature of the earth rising slightly and causing inclement weather. All other issues around the world pale in comparison to this."

Nothing is Safe. Now the Biden Administration Wants to Regulate Your Ceiling Fan

If I were a climate change fanatic, I wouldn’t stop at anything to cut carbon. This
explains a lot about the Department of Energy’s proposed rules on energy efficiency for ceiling fans. Yes, ceiling fans. The DOE announced the exciting news this past week that consumers would save between $28 and $39 over the life of a ceiling fan on energy costs. Meanwhile, Republicans on the Small Business Committee are questioning the wisdom of rules that will save consumers pennies a year but very well might cost thousands of jobs as some small ceiling fan manufacturers are likely to go...

Is there any joy in this life this sour, bitter, dementia-riddled old man and the harpies enabling him cannot try to rip from your fingers? Is
there any comfort in your solidly middle class life that they will not try to deprive you of, or, if unsuccessful, at least regulate into non functionality and obsolescence-by-design? The short answer and only answer is “No.” Our shared misery makes him happy. Gas stoves, the very power in your home, your car, air-conditioner, washing machine and dishwasher. And now, they’re eyeing probably the last target left in the house – that whirling guillotine...

Biden admin’s latest home appliance crackdown: ceiling fans

Ceiling fans are now the latest target in the Biden administration’s green agenda, sparking pushback from Republicans and manufacturers. The
Department of Energy is proposing a rule that would require ceiling fans to be more energy efficient, arguing the move would save U.S. households on energy costs. According to the Energy Department’s analysis, the new rules would save households about $39 over the lifespan of the new energy-efficient fan. However, the cost to manufacturers associated with the increased equipment will total $86.6 million per year, the department said. Republicans on the House Committee on Small Business say if the rule...

Sununu: Trump Can Not Win Presidency — His ‘Ceiling at His Best Is 45%

Governor Chris Sununu (R-NH) said Monday on CNN’s “Inside Politics” that former President Donald Trump can not win the presidential election in November 2024 because his ceiling of popularity is at 45%. Sununu
said, “So one of the key points of that poll showed that about a third of Trump supporters would consider somebody else. When you look at the favorable/unfavorable of all the different candidates DeSantis is better than former President Trump, Tim Scott has strong numbers. Other candidates are showing strong numbers.” He continued, “I think we all agree the former president’s floor is high, 32, 33, 34%,...

Fitch downgrades U.S. credit rating from top score after debt ceiling crisis

NBCNews ^
Fitch downgraded its credit rating for the U.S. government, from AAA to AA+, two months after the debt-ceiling crisis was resolved. “In
Fitch’s view, there has been a steady deterioration in standards of governance over the last 20 years, including on fiscal and debt matters," the rating agency said Tuesday. Fitch said the U.S. appeared to suffer from an “erosion of governance," pointing to the Washington brinkmanship over the debt ceiling as an example. With a rating of AA+, the U.S. still holds among the highest possible ratings, which Fitch saying the nation still benefits from a “large, advanced, well-diversified...

The Mountain Valley Pipeline has been blocked again despite the debt ceiling bill fast-tracking the project

WASHINGTON — A federal appeals court in Virginia this week delivered a message to Congress, the White House and developers of the Mountain Valley Pipeline: not so fast. Pennsylvania-based
Equitrans Midstream’s roughly 300-mile pipeline, envisioned to bring shale gas from the Marcellus and Utica in Appalachia to markets in the Southeast, was fast-tracked as part of the Biden administration’s deal with Congress to suspend the debt limit in June. It’s also supported by Pennsylvania congressmen, including U.S. Reps. John Joyce, R-Blair, and Guy Reschenthaler, R-Peters, who joined U.S. Rep. Carol Miller, R-W.Va., to introduce the legislation in May that helped...

House conservatives block GOP bills, voice frustration in response to last week’s debt ceiling vote

WASHINGTON (AP) — House conservatives staged a mini-revolt Tuesday in retaliation for Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s leadership on last week’s vote to raise the debt ceiling, the right wing banding together to block progress on a mixture of bills and vent their frustration. Led
by outspoken members of the House Freedom Caucus, a group of 11 Republicans broke with their party on an otherwise routine procedural vote that threw the day’s schedule — and the rest of the week — into disarray. It’s the first such procedural rule vote to fail in nearly two decades. The group is among some of...

NEW YORK, June 5 (Reuters) - Investors are bracing for a wave of U.S. government bond issuance as the Treasury plans to refill its depleted coffers quickly after the recent suspension of the debt limit. The
Treasury General Account has fallen sharply since January when Treasury hit its limit on borrowing. Cash balance targets indicate it will need to rebuild its account quickly now that the borrowing cap has been lifted.

Simply irresponsible. Biden’s budget that is! Biden
signed the debt ceiling bill craftted by McCarthy (RINO-CA) and Schumer (Communist-NY). Its allows for uncontrolled spending and borrowing for at least 2 years. And as Milton Friedman once said “There is nothing more permanent than a temorary Federal program … or debt limitiations. With Biden signaling that government has gone wild with no controls on fiscal responsibility (and Elizabeth Warren flailing her arms and screaming for regulations on cryptocurrencies), cryptos today are getting demolished. China, Japan and the BRICs realize that there are no controls on ANYTHING coming out of Washington DC....

During this week’s broadcast of FNC’s “Sunday Morning Futures,” House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) insisted the debt ceiling deal reached by House Republicans and the Biden White House was the “beginning of turning the ship.” “Mr.
Speaker, thanks so much for joining us this morning,” FNC host Maria Bartiromo said. “Congratulations to you after all of this work you have put into this. How are you feeling this morning after the president signed the bill into law?”

Praise the Lord. The Republic is saved. We

By the grace of God (or perhaps some other celestial from a warmer climate), the extinction-level event became a "near miss" rather than a Deep Impact.Our fearless secretary of the Treasury has been taking "extraordinary measures" to extend the debt ceiling deadline since January of this year. But her ability to sell "the check's in the mail" to the debt collectors was...

Donald Trump Finally Shares How He Feels About the Debt Ceiling Deal

TownHall ^
| May 31, 2023 11:45 PM | Matt Vespa
The deal to raise the debt ceiling for two years to the tune of $4 trillion while minimally cutting spending passed the House, thanks to the Democratic Party support. More
Democrats voted for the compromise than Republicans did, which we all saw coming, given the vocal opposition from the party's conservative wing. Even more damning were the allegations that the $4 trillion increase wasn’t a Democratic Party pitch but Speaker Kevin McCarthy's (R-CA) proposal. Yet, even on the Republican side of the aisle, you had staunch conservatives disagreeing. Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), one of the most prominent spending hawks, voiced...

Former Trump 2016 campaign manager and White House adviser Steve Bannon offered high praise from the top Democrat in the House, Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), on his War Room podcast Friday. Bannon discussed the debt ceiling vote this week, a measure Bannon was fiercely against. Hakeem
Jeffries had to come down, by the way, Hakeem Jeffries, who’s now Majority Leader. Hakeem Jeffries had to come to the floor, waited strategically, and Hakeem Jeffries. Do you think Biden played this smart? He’s the man. He’s the man. He’s the man,” Bannon said praising the New York Democrat.
