Happy Easter from TheBlaze: The true meaning of Easter Sunday | Blaze Media: 

It should not be missed that Jesus inexplicably tied his death — the events of Easter and the Passion week — with the events preceding Jewish Passover. After all, Jesus himself was a Jew, as were his disciples, so the Jewish context was the best category available to communicate his teachings.

But there was a deeper meaning at hand. Indeed, the events of the Passion week should be examined in light of the narrative storyline of the Bible.

But the unique finding of the poll is what voters believe Biden's top accomplishment is: nothing. That's right. When pollsters asked respondents to name the Biden administration's top accomplishment, 38% of them couldn't name a single thing or they said that Biden's presidency has been a net-negative for the country.

"...A group of about 30 homeless activists has filed complaints with the city about the planters which they call "hostile architecture." 

• So residents and business owners started getting warnings from the city saying they had 30 days to remove the planters or they would be fined.
• But that's not the end of this story. The Department of Public Works has announced that it will soon be requiring anyone who has or wants to have a planter out on the sidewalk to get a permit for it...

Philadelphia Fed Admits US Payrolls Overstated By At Least 800,000 | ZeroHedge

The first red flags emerged in the summer of 2022: that's when the Biden Labor Department started well and truly rigging the labor market data.
"...Regular readers may recall that it was back in July of 2022, when we first warned that something had "snapped" in the labor market: that's when a striking discrepancy emerged between the number of US Payrolls...and the number of actual Employed Workers (as measured by the BLS' far more accurate Household Survey) . 

As we showed then, after the two series had tracked each other tick for tick for years, a wide gap opened in March 2022 which quickly grew to 1.5 million jobs in just 3 months...

... one which has since exploded to a whopping 5 million "employed workers" that apparently do not exist.

How to Repair the Key Bridge Without Breaking the Bank

Fortunately, it’s possible for Washington to help Maryland rebuild the bridge without driving the nation deeper into debt. - David Ditch / @davidaditch 

• First, all officials must be clear that the cost of rebuilding should mostly or entirely fall on the owners and operators of the ship...
• Second, there’s no need for Congress to authorize new funding to begin the process of clearing the channel and rebuilding the bridge. In 2021, Congress passed a five-year, $1.2 trillion infrastructure package, the largest portion of which is devoted to roads and bridges. 

Rather than simply adding to the long-term debt, Congress has many options to repurpose funds from the 2021 bill, including:

• Canceling the administration’s $3.1 billion grant to California’s wildly dysfunctional high-speed rail project.
• Reducing federal spending on programs for low-priority, local-only infrastructure such as hiking trails, bike paths, and sidewalks.
• Pulling forward highway and bridge funds from allocations for 2025 and 2026 so they are available for the project starting in 2024...

According to the New York Post, Texas authorities have arrested more than 70 migrants allegedly involved in the incident. They face misdemeanor rioting charges. Sources who spoke to the outlet, moreover, said that Texas authorities have identified more than 200 other migrants they believe were involved in the incident, but federal immigration authorities are not being cooperative. "These people were willing to assault military," a National Guard source told the Post. "They were willing to assault law enforcement. They have complete disregard for our laws."

'Equity-Based Algebra' Is as Bad as You Imagine It to Be

The CMF is a series of policy and curriculum "suggestions" designed to bring "equity" to the math scores of minority students. - RICK MORAN

• Most students won’t learn algebra until high school. In the past, when that was expected of middle schoolers, the CMF tells us, “success for many students was undermined.”
• This means calculus will mostly be verboten because students can’t take calculus “unless they have taken a high school algebra course or Mathematics I in middle school.”
• “Detracking” (ending advanced courses) will be the law of the land until high school; students will be urged to “take the same rich mathematics courses in kindergarten through eighth grade.”
• Also, "letter grades will be discouraged in favor of 'standards-based assessments.'" It's not very clear what "standards-based assessments" are, but it sure sounds academic and harmless, right?

We collected thousands of observations on lethal force, and it was in this moment in 2016 that I realized people lose their minds when they don’t like the result.”

Fryer noted that he found “some bias in the low-level uses of force everyday,” which included “pushing up against cars and things like that.”

“People seem to like that result,” he said. “But we didn’t find any racial bias in police shootings,” he continued, noting that he had eight full-time RAs that it took to do the study over the course of a year. When he found the result, he hired eight fresh ones — and the study came back the same.

What's Wrong With America's 'Elites'?, by Laura Hollis | Creators Syndicate

Over the past few years, news items about events on college campuses have come to dominate headlines...And the stories are often negative, if not outright shocking. 

• ...Across the country, Jewish students describe themselves as "living in a climate of hatred and fear" amid dramatic increases in antisemitic conduct, threats, slurs and actual violence...
• This week, Stanford University sophomore Theo Baker published "The War at Stanford" in The Atlantic, in which he describes how the Israel-Hamas war has affected his campus...
• In 2017, author Charles Murray's scheduled talk at Middlebury College was interrupted by a mob that later physically attacked him and his faculty host Allison Stanger. Stanger's hair was pulled so hard by a protester that she suffered a concussion...

So who are these "elite"?

Rasmussen explains that they are the top 1% of the population. They make more than $150,000 a year. They live in densely populated urban areas. They have not only college but postgraduate degrees. And large numbers of them "went to one of 12 elite schools."...

Not only does this group think it's acceptable to cheat to win an election, but 70% believe there is too much individual freedom in the United States, and an equal number trusts the government — which, of course, they control...
What's going on at our most prestigious and exclusive universities?

From The Federalist:
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) developed its 2021 framework on sex and “gender” around the concepts of fairness, inclusion, and non-discrimination. 

This framework leaves it to each sport’s governing body “to determine how an athlete may be at a disproportionate advantage against their peers.” 

• However, they admonish sports organizations against “targeted testing … aimed at determining [athletes’] sex, gender identity and/or sex variations.” 
• Instead, it’s up to each sport to “[provide] confidence that no athlete within a category has an unfair and disproportionate competitive advantage.”

The IOC’s sophistic gymnastics to deny sex-based categories in sport prompted 26 researchers from around the world to rebut the IOC’s framework...

Wind Turbines and Solar Panels are Aging Prematurely - IER

The claimed 25-year life span of wind turbines has in reality been just 7-10 years before having to be replaced along with their enormous blades.

Key Takeaways

• Wind turbines and solar panels are not living up to their longevity claims, increasing costs and filling up waste disposal sites.
• Inverters in solar facilities, required to convert direct current into grid-ready alternating current, are failing in 10 to 15 years.
• A new Australian study blames early failure of solar panels and inverters on humidity and excessive heat from the sun–the source of photovoltaic cells’ energy generation.
• Governments have hastily rushed to embrace renewable energy at the expense of consumers and taxpayers, with apparently little insight into some of the shortcomings of the technologies...

You love inflation? Try this!

 

Concerns regarding the effects of massive solar farms around the country.

So solar farms not only produce more heat in summer than the original land that they were installed on, but they also produce more cooling in winter, thus exacerbating weather extremes 

"Solar panels are at best about 20% efficient...

At the same time as they are absorbing light they are absorbing heat from the sun. 

This absorbed heat is radiated into the adjacent atmosphere. 

• It should be obvious what happens next. 
• When air is warmed it rises. 

Even small differences in ordinary land surfaces are capable of creating powerful forces of weather like thunderstorms and tornadoes...

Canadian Arctic ice coverage before there were satellites - Climate Discussion Nexus - Science Notes
"For years we have been treated to graphs showing the decline of Arctic sea ice based on satellite measurements, which began in 1979. 

The Canadian Ice Service also maintains detailed data on annual sea ice coverage throughout the Canadian Arctic and sure enough, the record since 1979 looks like the satellite record for the Arctic as a whole with a clear downward trend:

• But here’s something interesting: the Canadian Ice Service data don’t start in 1979, they start back in 1971. And you’ll never guess what happens when we add in the earlier data. At least alarmists won’t. Because it’s that the trend vanishes.

Here’s what the longer series looks like, and it’s quite a surprise:

Despite the supposedly “record” low ice cover in recent years, they’re not even records compared to the early 1970s, never mind earlier in the 20th century...

Bang! Biden escalates war on guns with national 'red flag law' center | WND | by Bob Unruh: 

Red flag laws bypass routine restraints, the charge.

There "a judge acts solely on the basis of a written complaint. He never talks to the person who made the complaint or the person against whom it was made. States vary on how quickly hearings must occur, but they all require that they take place within a month after one’s guns are taken away. But the steep cost of legal representation often deters defendants from seeking counsel, as lawyers can charge upwards of $10,000 for a hearing."

Instapundit - FACE, MEET PALM: North Sea oil rigs threatened with shutdown unless they start running on green electricity

Instapundit - You have to give climate panicmongers credit...
Currently, more than 280 platforms extracting oil and gas from UK waters produce 3pc of the country’s total emissions, the equivalent of about 17 million tonnes of CO2 a year.

"However, UK oil and gas fields also account for half of the country’s energy needs.
Despite this, the North Sea Transition Authority (NSTA), which regulates the offshore sector, has told producers that they must convert platforms to run on green electricity or low-carbon fuels.
This means all new developments before 2030 must be designed to run on electricity, while all those after that must be fully electrified from the start.
Critics say the new demands will deliver a fatal blow to many of the older platforms operating around British shores.
Some date back to the 1970s or 1980s and would be hugely expensive to decarbonise.

No, Climate Change Isn't Behind A Chocolate Easter Egg Crisis - Climate Change Dispatch

The Daily Mail posted an alarming Easter-themed story saying climate change has caused the price of chocolate Easter eggs to increase. This is false. - H. Sterling Burnett

"Chocolate Easter eggs and other chocolate candies have seen prices increase; however, data prove it isn’t due to a shortage of cocoa beans since cocoa production has risen as the Earth has warmed... 
“According to researchers from the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit (ECIU), a combination of wet heat waves and drought have battered this year’s cocoa harvest,” writes the Daily Mail.
The ECIU’s claim is false on several counts...

• West Africa set records for production 17 times during that period, most recently in 2022...

Because the climate in West Africa isn’t changing and cocoa production is setting records, one can hardly blame climate change for the higher costs of chocolate Easter eggs in the United Kingdom or anywhere else...

• The past two years wide weather swings across the globe have been dominated by the shift from a La Niña to a “strong El Niño year,” as the Daily Mail admits...
• Then there is the dramatic increase in inflation affecting most of the world, complicated by supply chain issues...
