Consumers could be in a 'world of hurt' if Biden doesn't act soon, former Walmart CEO warns | Fox Business

"We need workers, but we need workers we can employ that are in the country legally. What's happening now is you're letting people in that can't participate in the workforce but do increase demand. So, you have increased demand driving prices up without the workforce to be able to service it. So, it's a complicated factor. Certain inputs are trying to solve inflation, but you have counteracting forces that kind of mess that up," he said.

"Western liberal governments are once again using what they call "the science" as justification to spread fear, suspicion, hatred and division.  
The same playbook they have always used.

Transes Wear Mental Illnesses Like Fashion Accessories

Transes Wear Mental Illnesses Like Fashion Accessories - BY BEN BARTEE 
"...now regular transgenderism is not special enough anymore. 
It’s got to be overlaid onto an untreated mental health diagnosis — which they call “neurodivergence” — for maximum sex appeal.
  • “Might see if I have ADHD or some form of Autism,” confides the “trans lesbian.”

The transes seem to engage in an informal competition to be the most mentally fragile and permanently miserable, consumed with angst from the slightest non-problems imaginable.
  • Take, for instance, this woman, who is on the verge of tears at the prospect of having to tick a box on a form to notate biological sex which doesn’t include a section for non-binaries. “It’s sad,” she says. “I feel heavy with that knowledge.”
The more mentally unstable one becomes, the more authentically transgender...

WTF?!!-----She Was Jailed for Basic Journalism. A Federal Court Isn't Sure if That's Unconstitutional.

She Was Jailed for Basic Journalism. A Federal Court Isn't Sure if That's Unconstitutional.
"...That journalist is Priscilla Villarreal, whose presence in Laredo, Texas, is associated with her profanity-laced commentary on law enforcement and who police jailed for the crime of asking the government questions, getting answers, and publishing those responses.
That would appear to be a fairly cut-and-dry infringement on her First Amendment rights
Yet, it's a question that has stumped the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit in a case that could have far-reaching implications for anyone engaged in journalism, regardless of their political bent.
In 2017, Villarreal found herself in a jail cell after publishing two stories on her popular Facebook page, Lagordiloca, which as of this writing has attracted 202,000 followers. 
  • The first story pertained to a Border Patrol agent who committed suicide; 
  • the second revealed the identity of a family involved in a deadly vehicle accident. 
The stories were standard. 
  • But Villarreal had already drawn the ire of the local police department with her reporting, which has included, among other things, a livestream of an officer choking someone at a traffic stop and heavy criticism levied at a local prosecutor...

NYTimes: Mayorkas Smuggled 100,000 Migrants Through Parole Pathway

President Joe Biden’s border chief smuggled more than 100,000 economic migrants into the United States from May to December via a hidden “parole” pathway that was admitted on January 12.

Border chief Alejandro Mayorkas — a Cuban-born, equity-above-the-law, business-friendly, pro-migration zealot — is welcoming another 20,000 migrants per month via this parole pathway, officials told friendly reporters at a background briefing on January 25.

"George Soros is the most dangerous man in America. 
The investor is intent on remaking the country in his liberal image, from our foreign policy priorities to undermining our criminal justice system.

Democrat introduces bill to mandate armed security in every gas station, bank, grocery store, pawn shop in Chicago - TheBlaze

The bill is particularly ironic for several reasons.

First, its primary sponsor is a Democrat, and Illinois Democrats generally favor increased gun control — not more guns to curtail crime problems. Jones, for instance, voted for an assault weapons ban that Illinois Gov. J. B. Pritzker (D) signed into law earlier this month.

And "racism" is always "white people bad"!


 

The Green New Deal is A Communist Plot

The Green New Deal is A Communist Plot - Elizabeth Nickson
  • Complete with camps, impoverishment, hated leaders and catastrophic misery.
"Commies have always been after the wealth of America. It is their plum, their Holy Grail, their much-lusted-after crowning achievement. 
From the ruined universities of Europe, they flooded to the New World after WW2, determined to get some of her lovely money. 
Communists are always money hungry, starved in fact, ravenous for cash, but they never figure out how it is created. 
  • So they steal it by insinuating themselves into the bureaucracy and public sector unions, there to shake down the culture, no matter what. 
  • They don’t give a damn about the people they putatively serve. 
  • Citizens are meatsuits to be exploited for benefits and raises. 
  • Communists steal the wealth of every country they take over and then they destroy that country, its history, its culture, its families and youth. 
  • Whether you call it by its polite name “socialism” or its real name which is demonic and unknown, the forces of death and evil, Communism, Leninism, Maoism, what it leaves in its wake is devastation...

Where You Gonna Put Those Wind Turbines? | Power Line
"There are several reasons why wind and solar energy are doomed to fail, but the most basic is that they are low-intensity energy sources. 
They produce ridiculously little electricity per acre. 
Thus, Robert Bryce, one of our top energy experts, calculated in a paper he wrote for American Experiment that if we wanted to get all of our electricity needs from wind turbines, we would have to dedicate an area twice the size of the State of California.
I will hazard a guess that, no matter how much money liberals waste, this isn’t going to happen...

This lie is being taught to our children!

It's Not Just Gas Stoves Democrats Are Coming For - Here Are Other Home Appliances on the Chopping Block

But gas stoves aren’t the only thing climate scolds and the radicals in the Biden administration want to take away from us all. There is a growing list of other modern conveniences these advocates of stone age living want to destroy.

The Democrats and their extremist climate change allies want to take away items from nearly every room of our homes, according to Ben Lieberman, a senior fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute.

“There’s bad news for almost every room in the house,”

URGENT: A big New Zealand study reveals high rates of kidney injury after the Pfizer jab

URGENT: A big New Zealand study reveals high rates of kidney injury after the Pfizer jab - Alex Berenson
  • 1,800 more cases than expected followed the shots, one for every 2,200 completed vaccinations; the finding is more evidence that the jabs may cause cardiovascular damage.
"Drawing on a national database of over four million people, researchers in New Zealand have found a strong association between Pfizer’s mRNA Covid shot and kidney injuries.)
...The authors did not define “acute kidney injury,” a term that can cover anything from relatively benign changes on laboratory tests to a serious loss of renal function.
Still, the finding is yet another signal of the potential cardiovascular risks of the mRNAs...

Parents say 'dream' school district has become a 'woke' nightmare: 'The joke's on us' | Fox News

One mom in Linn County told "Fox & Friends First"she pulled her children out of the public school system in Fall 2022 to homeschool. Geralyn Jones, the chair of a Moms for Liberty chapter in Iowa, said that she removed her children because of a transgender policy that allows students to choose which locker rooms and bathrooms to use. "But most importantly, [the policy] supports keeping records from parents, and it excludes parents. So a child can have a like another file or a student file that is separate. And the school administration is not required to share that with parents," Jones said.

Moody contends those policies can seriously endanger law-abiding citizens.
