At the same time, Honda ditched plans to co-develop electric vehicles with GM. The goal was to produce a brand that could be sold for under $30,000, but Honda CEO Toshihiro Mibe said the market was too unpredictable, so the plans were canceled.
"After studying this for a year, we decided that this would be difficult as a business, so at the moment we are ending development of an affordable EV," Mibe told Bloomberg.
"Hamas heavyweight Muhammad Qassem Sawalha, 62, was discovered living in London in a home bankrolled by UK citizens.
Here’s the kicker: he lives in a Jewish neighborhood. Apparently, living amongst Jews isn’t so bad if a huge chunk of your home is paid for with someone else’s cheddar.
Sawalha and his wife scored a tasty $136,500 taxpayer-funded kiss when they bought a two-story home in London for $390,000. The house is paid off.
Sawalha, who is wanted in Israel for being a member of Hamas, skedaddled to London using a cousin’s passport in the 1990s and snagged his own British passport in the early 2000s... But wait, there’s more.
"...marauding Goths, Ostrogoths, Visigoths, Huns, and Vandals...crossed the unsecured Rhine and Danube borders to harvest Roman bounty...focused on destroying the civilization they overran rather than peacefully integrating into and perpetuating the Empire...
The unity of these diverse peoples fused into a single culture that empowered Rome.
In contrast, the later disunity of hundreds of thousands of tribal people flooding into and dividing Rome doomed it.
To meet the challenge of a multiracial society, the only viable pathway to a stable civilization of racially and ethnically different people is a single, shared culture...
Some nations can find collective success as a single homogenous people like Japan or Switzerland.
Or equally, but with more difficulty, nations can prosper with heterodox peoples -- but only if united by a single, inclusive culture as the American melting-pot once attested.
But a baleful third option -- a multicultural society of diverse, unassimilated, and often rival tribes -- historically is a prescription for collective suicide.
We are beginning to see just that in America, as it sheds the melting pot, and adopts the salad bowl of unassimilated and warring tribes...
"The case against Secretary Granholm, as laid out by the supporting Republicans, consists of several major points:
Conflict of Interest: Granholm was accused of using her office to promote a company where she previously served on the board. This raises questions about the ethical boundaries between public service and private interests.
Failure to Secure Energy Independence: Rep. James argued that instead of securing American energy independence, Granholm is actually depleting it. He pointed out the sale of strategic petroleum reserves as one example.
Poor Track Record: Drawing from her time as Governor of Michigan, James labeled her policy history as one of failure, suggesting that this past performance has been a reliable indicator of her current actions.
Lack of Accountability: Both Rep. Norman and Rep. James emphasized that reducing Granholm’s salary is an exercise in accountability, which they see as lacking in the current regime.
James argues that this isn’t simply an act of political theater but a direct attempt to bring accountability into the government..
The narrative about January 6 is being used as a wedge that our ruling class mercilessly hammers to separate “good” and “respectable” Republicans who go along with it from — according to Joe Biden — “extremist,” “authoritarian,” “insurrectionist” Republicans who threaten the very soul of our nation.
But if anyone truly cares about justice under the law and our system of government, the question of what happened that day should not revolve around whether someone is a Democrat or a Republican or whatever they happen to think about Joe Biden or Donald Trump.
All Americans should care about one thing above all else: the truth.
The Pittsburgh Public Schools Board of Education is bringing in a consulting group to help teachers “dismantle racism” from their math curricula.
"According to The Center Square, the board decided on October 25 to shell out $50,000 to Quetzal Education Consulting, which claims it readies teachers “to identify, disrupt, and replace white supremacy culture practices in math instruction with practices that center the wellness of students of color.”...
"Pro-Hamas protesters march in London (10/28/23). Credit: Sky News A massive pro-Hamas protest took place on Saturday in London, with videos showing what appears to be hundreds of thousands of people participating. The protesters demanded an end to hostilities against Hamas even after the terrorist government of Gaza slaughtered 1,400 Israelis on October 7th. Some shouted antisemitic chants while others held up signs that read things like "Queers for a free Palestine."...
A 50-year-old man was allowed to compete against teenage girls in a regional swimming competition in Canada, after swimming officials said they were simply going with national swimming guidelines.
A man named Nicholas J. Cepeda, who goes by "Melody Wiseheart," competed against young girls ages 13-17 at the Richmond Hill Aquatic Centre’s Fall Classic hosted at the Markham Pan Am Centre, near Toronto, Canada.
"In this "Fact Check" video from the Climate Discussion Nexus, Dr. John Robson expands on our Sea Level Check series to rebut claims of dangerous, accelerating, man-made sea level rise by examining the actual history and current state of melting land ice, changes in the land and other complex factors that contribute to this non-crisis
“Their grades are suffering, they’re falling behind academically and they’re losing some motivation,” said Parker Houston, a pediatric psychologist and owner of Central Ohio Pediatric Behavioral Health, who has been working with students on coping strategies during the shortage.
With little hope for relief in sight, professionals are urging better communication among doctors, parents and schools to create an environment that can best help students who are missing their medication...
In a 412-10 vote, the House of Representatives overwhelmingly approved a resolution expressing support for Israel and condemning terror attacks perpetrated against the Jewish state. But one Republican and nine Democrats voted against the resolution, while six other Democrats voted present.
The resolution declared, among other things, that the chamber "reaffirms Israel’s right to self-defense," "condemns Hamas' brutal war against Israel," and "stands ready to assist Israel with emergency resupply and other security, diplomatic, and intelligence support."
It is not “climate change” but the policies adopted in response to it that are the problem afflicting the poor the most...

With electricity unavailable or too expensive for 600 million people in Africa, vast areas of forest are being denuded for fuelwood or charcoal to cook and to warm homes by those who have no other fuel...
"...Germany’s APOLLO NEWS here reports that soccer club VfL Osnabrück is now “penalizing its employees with climate fines.”
“Based on an individual CO₂ footprint calculated by the club, deductions are made from their salaries as a penalty for climate-unfriendly behavior,” reports the German site.... According to the APOLLO site: “The soccer club calculates the amount of salary that is deducted based on things like how far its employees travel to work or how much meat they consume.”...
"From a STEPHENVILLE (TX) resident, George Franklin:
“I should start by telling you what bonafides I have for writing this.
I am a retired aerospace engineer...
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...
Even small differences in ordinary land surfaces are capable of creating powerful forces of weather like thunderstorms and tornadoes.
These weather phenomena are initiated and reinforced by land features as they are blown downwind.
It is all too obvious to me what will happen with the heat generated by an entire solar farm.
Solar farms will become thunderstorm and tornado incubators and magnets...
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.
So, I conclude with this.
There is nothing green about green energy except the dirty money flowing into corrupt pockets.
There is no such thing as green energy.
The science doesn't exist.
The technology doesn't exist.
The engineering doesn't exist.
We are being pushed to save the planet with solutions that are worse than the problems.”
