California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) signed another law Monday, claiming to be taking action against gas prices but without lowering taxes, removing the state’s onerous “cap-and-trade” system, or easing regulations on refineries. Those are the factors that the industry, and independent experts, say are the main contributors to the fact that the Golden State pays an average price of $4.677 per gallon, the highest in the nation, well above the average of $3.203. Instead, Newsom has again blamed the oil and gas industry, as in previous years. The new law, which he pushed through in a special legislative session, requires...

During a friendly interview with the All the Smoke podcast, sitting Vice President Kamala Harris proved she has no idea how a bill becomes a law. What we have here is another situation where Kamala is interviewed by her own fans and asked puffball questions in the hopes of making her look good and in command. Unfortunately for her, she’s an idiot with no grasp of why she believes what she believes, and your only takeaway from the interview is how dumb and shallow she is. One of the hosts offered her this layup: “Explain how a bill becomes a...

As many readers likely know, New York is the center of the legal profession in this country. New York City has a large community of major law firms that advise the business community both across the country and also internationally. This is the industry in which I had my own career prior to retiring from it in 2016. There are large numbers of distinguished practitioners who are highly sought out for every sort of legal problem. We have multiple well-known bar associations — notably the Association of the Bar of the City of New York (known as the City Bar)...

. @Naval Ravikant says the Democrat Party's lawfare against President Trump is "disgusting behavior" that could "end the Republic" and lead to a "one-party state better known as a dictatorship." "If you look at the charges brought against Trump, and I actually read them quite carefully. These were really Trumped-up charges. They were really made up. You violate the statute of limitations. You try to drum things up into a felony when there was no evidence of such. It was a miscategorization of business expenses. It's this selective prosecution." "If you want the case against Kamala Harris, it's the fact...

During an interview with FOX 5 New York on Thursday, New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) defended the city offering migrant families money to exit the shelter system instead of changing the right to shelter law by stating that the right to shelter law isn’t the issue here because migrants are “here legally, and it is the responsibility of the federal government to not say New York City must pick up the price tag for it.” Co-host Bianca Peters asked, “[Y]ou’re going to be offering migrant families up to $4,000 to exit the city shelter system. What do you...

Rochester police have arrested the man wanted for the beating death last week of his girlfriend in the Beechwood neighborhood. Police say suspect Walter Balkum had already been arrested for assaulting the woman this spring, and he was wearing an electronic monitor until five days before the killing of Melikah Bruner. Police say a judge removed the monitor at the request of Balkum's lawyer, who argued it impeded Balkum's ability to get a job. The Monroe County judge was Judge Karen Bailey Turner, who was elected to a ten-year term in 2019. Balkum has four prior felony convictions, two for...

In a major victory for election integrity efforts, the Supreme Court of the United States approved key portions of an Arizona law that requires proof of citizenship in order to cast a vote in the upcoming election. As reported by Breitbart, the law in question had been passed in 2022, while Republicans still had control of the state legislature and the governorship. Passed in response to widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election, the law also requires newly-registered voters to provide proof of their address. The law faced pushback from Democrats and other far-left activists, who repeatedly sued to have...

More than 40,000 abortions had been reported this year in Florida as of Aug. 1More than 40,000 abortions had been reported this year in Florida as of Aug. 1, but the number being performed is down after a law took effect preventing abortions after six weeks of pregnancy, according to newly released state data. The data, posted on the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration website, showed 40,499 abortions reported this year as of Aug. 1. That was up from a total of 36,221 reported at the beginning of July and 32.081 reported at the beginning of June. The...

HONOLULU (KHON2) -- Drug cartels from Mexico are operating in Hawaii, making and pushing deadly drugs including methamphetamines and fentanyl. New tougher penalties akin to murder charges are aiming to take them down. Authorities told KHON2 that the big cartels are ramping up business not just south of the border but right here in our island state. The top federal law enforcement official in Hawaii warns of the dangers not just to drug users, but to drug pushers once caught. Authorities have seen a big shift in recent years to Hawaii’s most dangerous drugs methamphetamine and fentanyl especially coming mostly...

~A land of legalisms is not the same as a land of law - a vital distinction increasingly lost on Americans of both left and right. Thus, yesterday's Supreme Court decision on "presidential immunity", which was good-ish for Trump, was immediately seized on by Democrats as an opportunity to indulge their kinky and psychologically unhealthy murder fantasies: Sean Davis on X: One of the lawyers for the fake Ukraine impeachment “whistleblower” just called for Biden to imprison his political opponents and then have them killed. There was a lot of this about yesterday - including the penetrating insight that the...

The Justice Department has presented Boeing with a plea deal after it accused the airplane manufacturer of violating the terms of a 2021 deferred prosecution agreement that was put in place following two 737 Max crashes in 2018 and 2019. The Justice Department told Boeing it could plead guilty or go to trial, people familiar with the talks confirmed to CBS News. The agreement, which was presented to Boeing on Sunday, would have the company plead guilty to the conspiracy charge it originally faced in 2021. In exchange, Boeing would pay a fine and enter a three-year probationary period, the...

Remember University of Michigan law professor Barb McQuade? She’s a regular “legal analyst” on MSNBC and was but one of many who supported the assertion that Hunter Biden’s laptop was, in her words, “Russia.” Hilariously, she’s written a book titled “Attack from Within: How Disinformation Is Sabotaging America” the description of which reads “We are strategically being pushed apart by disinformation—the deliberate spreading of lies disguised as truth—and it comes at us from all sides.” More hilariously, McQuade (pictured) told Rachel Maddow earlier this year that the United States’ “deep commitment” to the First Amendment means there needs to be...

Sirius XM’s Megyn Kelly criticized President Joe Biden’s “play for sympathy” over Hunter Biden’s trial for his federal gun charge. Biden released a statement saying that he is “the president” but is also “a dad” who is “so proud” of his son, who faces three felony gun charges brought by special counsel David Weiss. As jury selection kicked off Monday, Kelly ripped into Biden for attempting to “influence” potential jurors. “So now we’ve got President Biden going to Wilmington and actually making a statement like, well on the eve of this trial,” Kelly said. “It’s still inappropriate. It’s not appropriate...

The Biden administration is doing an end-run around the nation’s immigration laws — by giving migrants work permits in record numbers. Since President Biden took office, more than 3.3 million migrants have been given a Employment Authorization Document (EAD), commonly known as the federal work permit, even though many didn’t even legally have the right to be America. And as of February of this year, pending EAD applications stood at an another 1.4 million. In many cases, migrants are given the right to work before they are even given asylum, a green card or other legal documentation that allows them...

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) -- A former CIA officer pleaded guilty in a federal courtroom in Honolulu on Friday to conspiring to gather and deliver national defense information for China.

Florida sheriffs have been making news of late for doing their jobs. I say that not as a commentary on said sheriffs, but as a sad observation that in parts of this country, violent repeat criminals rule the streets. One such Florida sheriff is Lee County's Carmine Marceno, whose hard line on criminals who think they can "play" in his county is crystal clear: My message … is clear. If you think you can deal poison and commit crime, stay clear of Lee County and all the great state of Florida. We're ready, and we will absolutely find you, hunt...
