Another CR lol: They may have to do this over and over until the election because the Republican majority in the US House is now so razor thin

 Congressional leaders reach short-term spending deal to keep government open until March

The deal would keep the government funded until March, buying legislators more time to craft longer-term, agency-specific spending bills, following the agreement last weekend to set the overall spending level for fiscal year 2024 at $1.59 trillion. ...

The short-term bill, known as a continuing resolution or “CR,” will need to pass both the House and Senate before Friday at 11:59 p.m. to avoid a partial government shutdown.

 

Reuters got it right, CNBC green lunatics try to soften the blow: "Rental giant Hertz dumps EVs, including Teslas, for gas cars"

Jan 11 (Reuters) - Rental firm Hertz Global Holdings (HTZ.O) is selling about 20,000 electric vehicles, including Teslas, from its U.S. fleet about two years after a deal with the automaker to offer its vehicles for rent, in another sign that EV demand has cooled.

Hertz will instead opt for gas-powered vehicles, it said on Thursday, citing higher expenses related to collision and damage for EVs even though it had aimed to convert 25% of its fleet to electric by 2024 end.

American wing of the Houthi rebels reprises November attack on the White House, this time destroys new barrier fence

 It's going to be a long hot summer in Washington DC if this is what Joe Biden's going to allow in the dead of winter.

No one was arrested for this destruction, just as no one was arrested last time for damage done to the White House gate.

Delaying his response to the Houthis for months of their Red Sea attacks until last week only encouraged them to keep it up. Joe Biden's doing the same with these malcontents.

Meanwhile Joe Biden continues to hunt down leisurely non-violent Jan 6ers and put them in the slammer.

Biden is annihilating Trump in Pennsylvania among those 65+ in new Quinnipiac poll yesterday which Real Clear Politics still doesn't link to lol

Quinnipiac poll in Pennsylvania, here:


Question 5: Biden 60% Trump 37% among those 65+ (2-way race)

Question 6: Biden 53% Trump 34% among those 65+ (5-way race)

Question 8: Biden favorable rating is highest among those 65+ at 54%

Question 9: Trump favorable rating is lowest among those 65+ at 33%

Question 20: Biden's job approval highest among those 65+ at 55%.

 

Older Americans haven't forgotten what a disaster Trump was for them personally.

Trump lost older people already early in 2020 because he minimized the pandemic, which ended up victimizing older people the most, whose deaths were north of 70% of the total.

Brad Parscale tried to warn him. He got fired instead.

Jay Powell's inflation has been bery bery good for corporate profits and a federal government drunk on debt

 Vitali Klitschko, the former heavyweight boxing champion and mayor of Kyiv since 2014, was a “core shareholder” and active participant in a Hunter Biden-chaired subsidiary of Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings, according to emails and an associate with direct knowledge who spoke with The Post. ...

Klitschko issued a blanket denial of involvement in a statement provided by a spokeswoman.

“I am surprised by such questions. Because: I have never been a partner in the project you are talking about and had nothing to do with it,” Klitschko told The Post.

“Accordingly, there is no question of any compensation. I had no ties to Hunter Biden. And I did not discuss the company you are asking about with Joe Biden.”

The mayor’s spokeswoman declined to provide answers to follow-up questions, writing in an email, “The answer I sent before is the most comprehensive one we can provide.”
