Tide Turns as State Supreme Court Backs GOP Governor on Removal of Soros-Backed Prosecutor

Tide Turns as State Supreme Court Backs GOP Governor on Removal of Soros-Backed Prosecutor:

The outlet also noted that Worrell received financial support from the left-wing activist group Our Vote Our Voice, which received a $1 million cash infusion by the George Soros-backed group Democracy Now.

The court ultimately ruled in favor of the governor, and for a rather simple, constitutional reason.

The Florida constitution gives the governor the power to suspend a state officer for “malfeasance, misfeasance, neglect of duty, drunkenness, incompetence, permanent inability to perform official duties, or commission of a felony, and may fill the office by appointment for the period of suspension.” The same rules give DeSantis the power to reinstate suspended officers, as well.

FBI's latest data shows 'historic' drop in crime: Garland - ABC News

FBI's latest data shows 'historic' drop in crime: Garland - ABC News

• Still, perception of crime often does not match up with the numbers. More than three-quarters of Americans said that there is more crime in the U.S. than a year ago and more than half of Americans said the same about crime in their local area, according to a Gallup poll from November...
• Some crime data experts have cautioned not to rely too much on the FBI's numbers, noting their largely preliminary nature that only covers roughly 77% of the nation's total population -- even if their broader assessment of decreasing crime across the country rings true.

'Nothing ordinary': DOJ admits Biden's special counsel transcripts inaccurate | WND | by Bob Unruh

'Nothing ordinary': DOJ admits Biden's special counsel transcripts inaccurate | WND | by Bob Unruh: 

The watchdog group cited the White House's own admission of the differences.

They may be considered insignificant by some, such as "missing 'filler words (such as 'um' or 'uh')' and words that 'may have been repeated when spoken (such as 'I, I' or 'and, and')'…"

The report noted that the DOJ also is claiming that "AI" could be "used to alter Biden's words" so the material should be kept secret.

A court filing by the DOJ claims the transcripts "accurately capture" the spoken words, but even so, they are not identical. The filing claimed the "differences" are not substantive.

Tom Fitton, Judicial Watch chief, pointedly added, "Wow.

The Left Knows Leftism Doesn’t Work - Victor Davis Hanson - American Greatness

Do not expect the radical left to survey the wreckage of socialism and communism in history and accept that statism impoverishes people and erodes their freedoms.

• There will never be admissions by our elite that progressivism exists mainly for the acquisition of power by the utopian and virtue-signaling few, who ensure that they are never subject to the baleful implementation of their ideological agendas on the rest of us.
• Still, leftists look around at what they have done to America in the last four years and implicitly know that the plan did not work, the people detested it, or both.
• How do we know this? 
• By a variety of barometers...

Some lies are OK. Right?

"The device not only picks up nicotine in the air, it also picks up on THC and also picks up on aggressive behavior, so students looking to bully and fight in the bathrooms," Derek Peterson of Soter Technologies said, according to the New York Post.

UCSB Divest Leads Teach-ins and Demonstration Calling for Divestment from Companies Involved in Israeli Defense

"All day on April 25, students at UC Santa Barbara joined universities across the country in establishing the “Popular University for Gaza” — a “liberated zone” in the campus Student Resource Building. 

The demonstration and symbolic encampment were in solidarity with Gaza and the Palestinian people and demanding “financial transparency, the defense of Palestinian activists, a declaration of the occupation of the Palestinian people, and a divestment from all companies and partnerships” actively supporting Israel’s military offensive on Gaza, according to National Students for Justice in Palestine.

What’s the Real Reason Caitlin Clark Was Snubbed From the Olympics? - MATT MARGOLIS

"The Tokyo Summer Olympics averaged 15.6 million viewers per night across NBC’s various television and digital platforms, marking the least-watched primetime Olympics on record, Summer or Winter,”

"...You can also argue that Clark was needed for not only women’s basketball but also the entire Olympics. 

• The previous summer Olympic Games, which took place in Tokyo in 2021, were the least-watched Olympics in history...
• In fact, the Tokyo Games were the first Summer Olympics to attract fewer viewers than the preceding Winter Games since Athens in 2004...

So, what’s the real reason Clark was snubbed? Is it the same reason why so many object to her popularity—that she’s straight, white, and from Iowa?

Nearly Three Years And $1,200,000,000,000 Later, Biden Has Almost Nothing To Show For His Biggest Domestic Achievement | The Daily Caller

Nearly Three Years And $1,200,000,000,000 Later, Biden Has Almost Nothing To Show For His Biggest Domestic Achievement | The Daily Caller: 

Rampant inflation and President Joe Biden’s favoring of left-wing policies are contributing to a lack of progress on his landmark infrastructure law, analysts told the Daily Caller.

Two and a half years after Congress ratified the $1.2 trillion Bipartisan Infrastructure Law in November of 2021, there has been very little concrete progress on new roads or bridges. The trillions of federal dollars the Biden administration has poured into the economy may actually be hindering the completion of the infrastructure that Biden promised to build, analysts told the Caller.
