"LANSING — When an association of energy suppliers sued the Michigan Public Service Commission over its implementation of state electricity law, it hired a former chair of the commission to take the case to court.
- In defending the suit, the three members of the commission teamed up with one of the biggest companies they regulate, Consumers Energy.
- They filed a joint trial brief and even shared lawyers.
Michigan residents endure some of the nation's least reliable electricity service along with some of the highest residential rates.
A Free Press investigation found the state commission charged with preventing that from happening lacks transparency in its decision-making and gets 80% of its funding from DTE Energy and Consumers — the two companies with a near monopoly on providing electricity to Michigan residents...

Read, listen. And explain it to your children!-----The True Story of Thanksgiving - Rush H. Limbaugh III
The True Story of Thanksgiving - Rush H. Limbaugh III
"...Here’s the version you were probably taught:
The Pilgrims arrived here after an arduous trip across the Atlantic Ocean. They didn’t know why they were, had no idea what to do. They had nothing. The Indians took pity on them. The Indians saw them, and the Indians saved them. The Indians taught ’em how to do things they didn’t know how to do, like grow food, catch beavers, stuff like that.That’s not at all what happened.
The Indians saved them, and the Pilgrims thanked them by growing a whole bunch of food and having this big feast. So, the story of Thanksgiving that’s taught is basically how without the Native Americans there wouldn’t be a country because the Pilgrims would have died. At least the Pilgrims were nice enough to pay the Indians back with a big Thanksgiving dinner.
It’s not even close to what happened, which is why I decided to write about it...

Sanctions relief for Iran shows how little the US has learned | Blaze Media
Sanctions relief for Iran shows how little the US has learned | Blaze Media:
This waiver is renewed every 120 days, which means this is not a one-off money infusion to the worst terrorist state in the world. The idea that the White House could use the threat of freezing relief as leverage against Iran — to say nothing of imposing new sanctions — appears not to have crossed anyone’s mind.
So billions of dollars — including an estimated $100 billion in unfrozen assets so far — will keep rolling into the mullahs’ bank accounts for at least as long as Joe Biden sits in the Oval Office.

The war has already begun!-----The fight ahead - The Spectator World
The fight ahead - The Spectator World - Spectator Editorial
- Will America’s leaders be up to the task of tackling the disinformation campaigns and rampant antisemitism plaguing the country?
- In the hours that followed the atrocities, the people who reject any sort of nuance in politics wanted to “put into context” the murders of 1,400 Jews — including elderly Holocaust survivors, women and children. The Manhattan chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America, of which Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez remains a member, tweeted support of Palestine and its intention of holding a rally in Times Square.
- Black Lives Matter Twitter accounts posted memes featuring silhouettes of paragliders like the ones Hamas used to invade Israel. Rally speakers laughed and cheered on the Hamas terrorists.
- One Cornell professor, speaking at a protest on campus, said of the attacks, “it was exhilarating. It was exhilarating, it was energizing!” and further told the crowd, “you would not be human” if you felt otherwise.
- Jewish students at Cooper Union in Manhattan were forced to hide in a library and escape through tunnels as a pro-Hamas mob banged on the doors when they heard there were Jews afraid to walk campus.
- Posters of the kidnapped children around New York and on college campuses have repeatedly been violently torn down by Hamas sympathizers.
- Chants of “from the river to the sea,” a call to wipe Israel off the map, are common at virtually every pro-Palestine rally.
- The flagrant antisemitism on display would make the most ardent neo-Nazi blush.
- On college campuses and cities across America, the events that have followed the October 7 attack have laid bare what the “social justice” movement really stands for. Leftists have shown us what’s under their masks, revealing their true selves and what’s meant by “decolonization.”
