Illinois U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Springfield, said on social media that President Donald Trump’s administration cutting off funding to the Solar for All program would lock Illinois out of more than $100 million for solar energy projects. State Rep. Chris Miller, R-Oakland, said his “fingers are crossed” that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's pause will halt Illinois solar projects. "The first thing that we need to clarify is there is no climate crisis, period. CEJA [Climate and Equitable Jobs Act] and all the related legislation to the green bad deal is a complete scam and a complete hoax. Ultimately, all...

OMG this sucks

Answer: They’re thieves who use covert schemes to loot the Treasury and steal from the American taxpayer.

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), notorious for his endless witch hunts and conspiracy theories, had the gall to lecture Vice President J.D. Vance on the sanctity of the rule of law while simultaneously applauding Joe Biden’s blatant disregard for a Supreme Court decision. This comes after Vance highlighted the dangers of judicial overreach into executive duties, an analogy drawn from his own military and legal expertise after an Obama-appointed judge blocked the newly established Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) from accessing a crucial Treasury payment system. “If a judge tried to tell a general how to conduct a military operation, that...

This is remarkable. Truly alarming, quite stunning and a clear example of how corrupt the FBI agency is.There was a very disturbing article in the Los Angeles Times, warning criminal aliens of a pending ICE operation sweep that was coming to the LA area. The source for the advanced tip-off were indicated within the reporting to be FBI officials in Washington DC.Today, it appears that Dept of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem is confirming the leak came from the FBI as she says, “The FBI is so corrupt. We will work with any and every agency to stop leaks and...

CBN.com – “We went bar-hopping, and I started doing two shots of Beam and a shot of Budweiser. I started to get ripped, and we went to the go go bar down the street and smoked a couple of joints. I left the go go bar and was doing 85 miles an hour down the road. I went to take a turn, and I don’t know if I yelled Jesus or God. I yelled something out, and the bike turned and catapulted. I almost went over a power line and landed on my feet. I fell back and had no...

If you spent much of last month shivering in the United States, you were not alone. A preliminary look at temperature data shows that the U.S. is likely to have experienced its coldest January average mean temperature since at least 2011, with records going back to 1895. Climate Central's preliminary report for January showed that 166 out of 191 analyzed cities (87 percent) were cooler than normal. That included Alaska, where the warmest city, Fairbanks, was an astounding 14.6 degrees Fahrenheit above normal. They put the January departure from the historical average number for the nation at minus 2.9 F....

James Carville suggested there could be a "plant" in progressive Democratic politics during his podcast on Thursday to see how many "stupid things" the party could embrace while discussing the Democratic National Committee (DNC) chair race. The political consultant read a description of former DNC Chair Jamie Harrison's announcement during the elections that they must be "gender balanced." Harrison said during the election process, "Our rules specify that when we have a non-binary candidate or officer, the non-binary individual is counted as neither male nor female, and the remaining six offices must be gender balanced with the results of the...

Why is the hard anti-American left so angry at Elon Musk? They’ve been unmasked. He and his warriors at DOGE have found them out. For years, they’ve been getting paid with your money, a billion dollars a week of American tax dollars, and laughing at you as the United States faces a fiscal deficit and as you’ve pinched your pennies hoping to survive the Democrat Party’s 20 percent inflation, as their leftist allies were living large . That’s why Democrats are so angry. They’ve been discovered. We see the hate and madness in their eyes directed at us for seeing...

Jasper is six years old, and we live in Southern California, which meant that in the course of the preceding week he and his twin brother had encountered Sonoran-style tacos, Lebanese kebabs, Vietnamese spring rolls, and several iterations of pizza. It is customary for first-time visitors in Los Angeles to remark on the multicultural multitude of the city’s restaurant landscape, but only when you live here do you realize (as did the late California food critic Jonathan Gold) that the scope of its globe-hopping is immeasurable, that you can roll along miles and miles of boulevards such as Pico and...
