  • Establishment Democrats Can’t Ditch Biden Because Of Likable Old-Schoolers Like RFK Jr.

    The Federalist ^ | July 18, 2023 | Robert Delahunty & Joe Popularis
    Sticking with Biden prevents open primaries that might demonstrate the appeal RFK Jr.’s ideas have among millions of ordinary voters. Joe Biden is a walking dead man, politically. His approval ratings are in the tank, and a stunning 72 percent of Americans think the country is on the “wrong track,” according to a recent survey. Biden’s cognitive decline is embarrassingly obvious. He is already 80 years old — the oldest president the country has ever had. He would be 86 at the end of a second term, assuming he lived that long, which troubles even his supporters. On top of...

    A select group of celebrities are chosen to throw out the first pitch at a Major League Baseball game. And not all of them maximize the experience—just ask 50 Cent. Almost no one, however, has had as much fun with the endeavor than rapper Wiz Khalifa—so he claims—did Monday evening. Khalifa, a military brat who grew up in Pittsburgh after moving around frequently as a child, threw out the first pitch ahead of the Pirates' series opener against the Guardians at PNC Park. The event was duly promoted across MLB's soc

    SLAY ^ | July 18, 2023 - 8:52 am | David Lindfield
    Former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino has spoken out against the conclusion of the White House cocaine “investigation” after speaking with his former colleagues. As Slay News reported, the Secret Service concluded the probe last week after just a few days and claimed that “no suspects” had been identified. According to the elite law enforcement agency, someone was able to smuggle a white powder into the West Wing of Democrat President Joe Biden’s White House and get away with it. However, only a handful of people at the most would ever be able to walk into the White House with...

    A Tennessee man has been charged in connection with a threat against conservative journalist and talk radio show host Michael Patrick Leahy over Leahy's lawsuit to obtain the Nashville school shooter manifesto, allegedly telling Leahy, "I'm willing to go to prison to end you." Leahy, CEO of The Star News Network, and the network’s parent company, Star News Digital Media Inc., are involved in a lawsuit to release the manifesto of transgender person Audrey Hale, who killed three students and three faculty members in March at a Nashville Christian school Hale had attended. The person charged in connection with the...

    Spirits are high among the International Brotherhood of the Teamsters as negotiations with shipping giant UPS stay frozen ahead of a July 31 contract negotiation deadline, The Hill found in a range of interviews. If the Teamsters strike, some 340,000 drivers, warehouse workers and other employees could walk off the job in one of the largest labor actions in U.S. history. The potential strike is part of surging labor activity in the U.S. and around the world as a result of elevated inflation, which central banks have been attempting to fend off by raising interest rate in an attempt to...
  • Big Price Cuts to Ford EV F-150, Now a Mere $50K-$92K

    Independent Sentinel ^ | July 17, 2023 | By M Dowling
    On Monday, Ford announced significant price cuts for all versions of its electric F-150 Lightning pickup. The cheapest version of the Lightning will now start at about $50,000, a roughly $10,000 cut. All versions of the EV will get price cuts of at least $6,000 as Ford works to boost production this fall. Ford claims their efforts to boost production and lower costs for battery minerals paid off. Ford suggests they can’t meet the demand, but there is an EV bubble right now, and many unsold EVs are piling up on car lots. Companies other than Tesla have produced too...

    Linux is now a little more than three 3 per cent of the desktop OS market, excluding the just over four per cent that is ChromeOS. Which is also Linux, but the wrong kind of Linux. Web server statistics aggregator Statcounter announced last week that as of June 2023, Linux accounts for 3 per cent of desktop operating system use. However, this is still surpassed by ChromeOS, which means that desktop Linux has less than half of the desktop Linux market. If you feel that this is a bit weird, we agree with you.Apparently, desktop Linux use measures 3.08 per...

    As the Marxist Democrat revolution pushes forward, House Republicans have once again failed to take legislative action, and the Reconciliation Memorial at Arlington National Cemetery is scheduled for demolition no later than January 1, 2024.An amendment to the 2024 National Defense Authorization Act was recently presented by Representative Bob Good (R-VA).Unfortunately for defenders of the Reconciliation Memorial, Rep. Good’s addition to the defense spending bill was rejected four days ago in a late-night vote that saw 41 Republicans break away after Armed Services Committee Chairman Mike Rogers (R – AL), who spoke in favor of the amendment.

    Jane Austen, who died at 41 years of age on the 18th of July, 1817, might be one of the most conservative writers ever. "Sense and Sensibility" (published in 1811) is set in the 1790's in southern England, while the Reign Of Terror gripped France and while Vermont, Kentucky, and Tennessee became states in America. A quote: “I wish, as well as everybody else, to be perfectly happy; but, like everybody else, it must be in my own way.” (Sense And Sensibility) “I hate to hear you talk about all women as if they were fine ladies instead of rational...

    US regulators on Tuesday announced a nationwide crackdown to stop companies from inundating people with billions of unwanted and illegal robocalls and telemarketing calls. The crackdown, known as Operation Stop Scam Calls, involves the Federal Trade Commission and 101 other federal and state law enforcement authorities, including the attorneys general of all 50 states and Washington, DC. More than 180 enforcement actions and initiatives are part of the initiative, including five that the FTC formally announced on Tuesday. “We don’t know too many people out there who enjoy getting scam calls,” Samuel Levine, director of the FTC consumer protection bureau,...

    Biden dead-ender Joe Scarborough is on guard for anything that might jeopardize his guy's re-election prospects. So when Joe Manchin, the Democrat senator from West Virginia, yesterday floated the possibility of a third-party presidential run, Scarborough was quick to lead the charge against him on today's Morning Joe....with his usual F-words for Trump. When, teasing the news at the top of the show, Mika Brzezinski mentioned Manchin's musings, Scarborough twice interrupted with a skeptical, "come on, man." Scarborough cast Manchin's flirtation in the most negative terms possible: "Do you think he really wants to help a fascist get elected president?...

    A United Nations agency warned of an increased risk of heart attacks and deaths as the northern hemisphere reeled Tuesday from heat waves. The World Meteorological Organization, the UN’s authority on weather and climate, said global temperatures have reached “unprecedented” levels within the last few weeks in a post on its website. According to the agency, multiple regions around the world including “North America, parts of Asia and across North Africa and the Mediterranean,” have seen temperatures above 40°C (104°F) for a “prolonged” period of time this week. “Heat is a rapidly growing health risk, due to burgeoning urbanization, an...

    Used needles and other drug paraphernalia were found littered on a baby’s changing table at a public park in Sacramento — sparking furor among residents over the city’s growing homeless encampment. Amy Gardner, a local community advocate, says Stanford Park has grown dangerous to the point where residents have to clean the park’s three public bathrooms themselves to keep needles away from children. “To think a little kid who might not know could pick up that needle and stab themselves inadvertently, that’s very frightening,” Gardner told CBS 13 about the latest incident Monday
