Core pce inflation still 2.8% in March 2024, still 75% worse than under Trump for a second consecutive month
Biden's 1Q2024 average is 2.86% year over year, making thirteen quarters averaging 4.20% average yoy inflation vs. Trump's 1.6%, 163% worse.
Trump never had a single quarter higher than 1.97% yoy.
Ford lost $132k on each EV: Joe Biden mandating electric vehicles will simply bankrupt the car companies and require huge future bailouts
Ford’s electric vehicle unit reported that losses soared in the first quarter to $1.3 billion, or $132,000 for each of the 10,000 vehicles it sold in the first three months of the year, helping to drag down earnings for the company overall.
Ford, like most automakers, has announced plans to shift from traditional gas-powered vehicles to EVs in coming years. But it is the only traditional automaker to break out results of its retail EV sales. And the results it reported Wednesday show another sign of the profit pressures on the EV business at Ford and other automakers. ... And that means this is not the end of the losses in the unit - Ford said it expects Model e will have EBIT losses of $5 billion for the full year.

Ford really, really, really doesn't want to go down that path lol, or that other one.
I mean, who wants to be the butt of every truck joke when electric ones literally can't pull their weight, giving new meaning to Found On Road Dead?
Trump's presidential immunity: Democrats want you to forget, for one, that Obama played the tyrant when he assassinated an American citizen in Yemen in 2011 by drone without due process of law
And it wasn't just Anwar al-Awlaki, born in New Mexico.
Obama assassinated three other American citizens, in the same and two other strikes.
Y'all just let that slide because you liked Obama.
. . . the Obama administration never charged al-Awlaki with a crime or even presented concrete evidence of his guilt . . . his targeted killing left American citizens with little more than the proposition that we are supposed to simply trust the president and the executive branch when they use secret intelligence to accuse an American citizen of terrorism and then claim the right to kill that individual without judicial scrutiny.

The New York Times, May 2013, after Obama was safely re-elected:
In his letter to Congressional leaders, Mr. Holder confirmed that the administration had deliberately killed Anwar al-Awlaki, a radical Muslim cleric who died in a drone strike in September 2011 in Yemen. Mr. Holder also wrote that United States forces had killed three other Americans who “were not specifically targeted.” . . . Mr. Holder confirmed the government’s role in the deaths of Samir Khan, who was killed in the same strike, and Mr. Awlaki’s son, Abdulrahman al-Awlaki, who died in another strike. The letter disclosed the death of a fourth American named Jude Kenan Mohammad but gave no further details.

I'm so confused: Cervical cancer screening in Australia is received by 65% of lesbian women and 79% of gay women
Has there been a new development that I need to know about lol? And what does "meanwhile while" mean?
Well, let me tell you a little sumthin: Your average Roman Catholic nun lives anywhere between 82-89 depending on education vs. 79 for the average American female.
If you really want to live a long time, you know what you have to stop doing lol.
Lesbian women die 20 percent younger than straight women due to stress of 'toxic' social stigma, according to new study
- Bisexual women die 37 percent younger than heterosexual women
- Meanwhile while lesbian women die 20 percent sooner, the Harvard study found
Petronella Wyatt, 54, is single, childless, and depressed, and blames her feminism on Protestantism lol
Ilhan Omar: Someday anti-semitism will triumph again, and it will be right
Import Somali hatred of Jews to Minnesota, and hatred of Jews is what you will get.
Ask yourself why the state's Norwegians Quislings are OK with this and you are on your way to understanding.
Diversity is their strength, not America's.
DEI means the Secret Service hires a nutjob, hands her a gun, and puts her on the VP's security detail
Herczeg showed up at the terminal and began acting erratically, grabbing another senior agent’s personal phone and deleting applications on it, according to two sources familiar with the matter. The other agent, a shift leader, was able to recover his phone and then acted as if nothing had happened.
But Herczeg’s bizarre behavior didn’t stop. She then began mumbling to herself, hid behind curtains, and started throwing items, including menstrual pads, at an agent, telling him that he would need them later to save another agent and telling her peers that they were “going to burn in hell and needed to listen to God,” a source told RealClearPolitics.
Herczeg also screamed at the special agent in charge (SAIC), rattling off the names of female officers on the vice president’s detail and claiming they would show up and help her and allow her to continue working. At that point, other agents on the scene believed Herczeg was suffering from a mental lapse, and the superior officer, SAIC, approached her to tell her she was relieved from the assignment.
“That’s when she snapped entirely,” one source recounted.

Like there weren't signs.

Tax Foundation tax calculator shows EVERYONE'S personal taxes going UP if Biden lets Trump tax cuts expire
A married couple with 2 kids and a modest combined income of $85k would realize a $1,661 tax increase if the Trump tax cuts are allowed to expire under Joe Biden.
The tax calculator is here.
US Chamber of Commerce intends to sue Democrat-controlled FTC for passing rule 3-2 banning noncompete agreements
Congress has not given the agency explicit authority to ban noncompetes. ... The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the largest pro-business lobbying group in the country, has said it will sue to block the rule. ... While the dissenting commissioners said they did not support noncompete agreements carte blanche, they did not believe the agency had the authority to issue the rule without an express directive from Congress.
More.
It's a BFD, as Joe would say.
Millions of American workers are not completely free to work where they may because of noncompete, nondisclosure, and confidentiality agreements they must sign as a condition of employment or as a condition of severance on termination of employment.
The FTC vote covers only the noncompete issue and represents an end run around Congress which has failed to pass appropriate legislation.

Abraham Lincoln was no Socrates, pretending that a man can be neither slave nor master
"As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master. This expresses my idea of democracy."
If a man is not a master of himself, however, he will be a slave . . . to his passions, which include the desire to rule others.
In The War Between The States we exchanged the one tyranny over the Negro for a still more universal and thorough-going tyranny of the self.
The only free man who exists is the one who can say No to himself.
Fine people on both sides hoax in the news: Biden says bad people on both sides lol
Scott Adams spearheaded exposure of the hoax from the beginning. There is hardly a constituency left in this country for preserving the statues and history of The Confederacy, except maybe in Donald Trump and people like YT.
Meanwhile the anti-Trump right like Stephen L. Miller and his ilk are happy to use fine people on both sides against Biden:
This is quite the concession about Abraham Lincoln
Lincoln’s principled stance was one of the causes of the Civil War.
In other words, Lincoln forced the issue, which is what tyrants do.
Lincoln was not a peacemaker.
Update:
It's too bad Nikki Haley didn't say Lincoln was a cause of the Civil War during her failed presidential run. That would have been REALLY fun to watch.
Washington Free Beacon lol: "Abraham Lincoln could not conceive of wonder drugs"
Um, he took blue-mass, which made him angry as all hell but did alleviate his depression.
Biden DOJ under Garland and FBI under Wray vigorously prosecute non-violent pro-lifers under the Face Act while turning a blind eye to hundreds of violent pro-abortion attacks
My organization has been highlighting this dangerous double-standard, warning Americans that the Justice Department and FBI are exploiting the FACE Act to target and harass individuals like Eva who stand in the way of their extremist agendas.
Just this month, a man named Elliot Bennet set fire to a Catholic Church in New Jersey. This was the third time Bennet had committed acts of violence or vandalism against the church since 2018, the 21st attack on a Catholic Church in 2024, the 274th attack since May 2022 and the 412th attack since May 2020.
Yet the same Justice Department that is fighting to throw Eva in jail failed to prosecute Bennet for these multiple and obvious FACE Act violations. It has also failed to federally prosecute a single one of the more than 400 egregious FACE Act violations against Catholic Churches since May 2020, or to meaningfully address the 90 attacks on pregnancy resource centers across the nation since May 2022.
These attacks don’t involve prayer and hymns. They’ve involved fire-bombings and arson, vandalism of pregnancy clinics and churches, spray painted threats on clinic and church walls, decapitated statues, smashed glass, disrupted masses, blocking of church entrances and even physical attacks on priests and parishioners. They have cost at least $25 million in damages to Catholic Churches, while intimidating hundreds of peaceful Catholic and pro-life communities.
