Read 'em all!-----The Power Line Political Lexicon, Updated | Power Line

The Power Line Political Lexicon, Updated | Power Line
"Our periodic lexicon of the real meaning of key political phrases has grown somewhat chaotically, so I decided to bring some order to it by alphabetizing it (with a couple of exceptions where a pairing is essential for meaningful contrast or revealing maximum leftist incoherence), and denoting new entries (“Dark Money” this time) with an asterisk. 
Herewith:
  • Ableism: the idea that ability, competence, achievement, and merit are somehow better than their opposites. A disgusting remnant of a White, patriarchal society that must be eviscerated with all due haste...
  • Advocate: People without real jobs who live to complain.
  • Adult: A 12-year-old who wants to have his or her genitalia removed
  • Bigotry: opposition to any belief or opinion held by a “progressive.”...

Biden admin releases new Title IX rules that bars states from banning transgender students competing in sports | Fox News

The Biden administration released on Thursday new Title IX rules that bar schools that receive federal funding from enforcing policies that ban biological males from playing girl's sports.

The U.S. Department of Education proposed to amend Title IX in order to set out a standard that would "govern a recipient’s adoption or application of sex-related criteria that would limit or deny a student’s eligibility to participate on a male or female athletic team consistent with their gender identity."

And this is why there is reflexive hostility to proposals for the Federal Reserve to adopt a digital currency.

Russia: New Cold War is Over, We Are Now in 'Hot Conflict With the U.S.'

The United States is “playing with fire” and engaged in a hot “hybrid war” with Russia, having already graduated from the Cold War stage, a Russian government minister has claimed, incredibly even going so far as to blame the U.S. for rising nuclear tensions.

The new Cold War is already over, a Kremlin spokesman has said, apparently looking past Russia’s own role in invading Ukraine and accusing the United States of “playing with fire” by pushing the world towards nuclear war that he insists Russians wish to avoid.

Biden Set to Announce an Unprecedented Crackdown on Gas-Powered Vehicles -  By Bryan Chai 
  • According to a new report from Reuters, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is preparing to enact “sweeping cuts in vehicle emissions pollution that will push automakers towards a big increase in electric vehicle sales.”
“Environmental groups and some automakers think the proposal will result in at least 50 percent of the U.S. vehicle fleet by 2030 being electric or plug-in hybrids,” the report notes.
Per a separate Bloomberg report, these momentous announcements are expected to be made on Wednesday in Detroit.
According to the two reports, it does appear that these sweeping changes stop just short of a full-on ban of gas-powered vehicles...

Private property may need to be seized by federal government, corporations to advance climate initiatives, says JPMorgan CEO - TheBlaze - CANDACE HATHAWAY
  • JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon recently suggested in his annual letter to shareholders that the federal government and large corporations may have to seize private property from U.S. citizens to advance climate initiatives, which he claimed are not being implemented fast enough to avoid potential climate-related crises.
"According to Dimon's Tuesday letter, in order to acquire "adequate investments fast enough for grid, solar, wind and pipeline initiatives," governments and businesses may need to implement "eminent domain."
Eminent domain is the ability of the government to take private property and convert it for public use following just compensation to the property's owner...
He expressed concern about having limited time to tackle the climate crisis and noted that not enough resources are being invested in green initiatives...
