This may be the biggest Supreme Court case in American history.
Greedy trial lawyers are trying to turn “climate change” into the biggest payday imaginable... potentially opening the door to bankrupting the companies that power America.
Cheap, abundant, reliable energy has helped lift BILLIONS out of poverty, dramatically increased life expectancy, and made modern civilization possible.
Destroying America’s energy industry won’t change the climate.
But it could make lawyers VERY rich.

SHOCKING 🚨 This speech alone makes MN Democrat Senator Amy Klobuchar totally 100% disqualified to hold any public office whatsoever.
In it, she brags about her role in helping make it easier for Somali thieves to send their ill gotten taxpayer billions in fraud money 💰 back to Somalia!
Vote for #LisaDemuthMN. Stop 🛑 Amy from helping criminals ever again!
The best news of the day. Just a matter of time before their so called “journalists” are shown the door.
CNN needs to get back to the fundamentals that they were founded on instead of trying to be a replacement for the National Inquirer.

It is not a good sign when the IRGC shifts from "Death to America" to "Vote Democratic." The IRGC is reportedly encouraging Americans to vote against the GOP in the midterms. nypost.com/2026/09/29/world-… ...

The Packers’ current 6 game losing streak is their longest since 1990-1991, 35 years ago, before Brett Favre arrived
In fact, Green Bay NEVER ONCE lost six consecutive regular season/playoff games during the ENTIRE Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers eras
It’s astounding nobody else has covered this. The current Packers stretch is unacceptable, and the fans have had enough.
RESTORE EXCELLENCE TO GREEN BAY

Greg Abbott responds after Minnesota AG Keith Ellison sued him for refusing to extradite an ICE agent:
“While they’re making demands, I’ve got a demand of my own: It’s time for Minnesota to repay the American people for the fraud committed in their state involving federal programs.”

RFK Jr. sat on CNN and said something that should not have been controversial. He said the government’s first duty in any future pandemic is to protect constitutional rights. Not balance them against expert opinion. Not temporarily suspend them. Protect them.
Dana Bash reacted as if he had just committed a category error. She told him she did not want to “allow” him to say things that were not entirely true. Allow. That is the word she chose. Not “challenge.” Not “disagree.” Allow.
Watch that moment carefully and the entire posture becomes clear. This is not a journalist testing a claim. This is a gatekeeper deciding which premises are permitted on air. The substance of Kennedy’s argument ... that the last response got almost everything wrong ... barely registered. What registered was the unacceptable suggestion that rights might rank above the public-health machinery.
That is the scandal that never ended. A large part of the media and the expert class still treats constitutional rights as optional equipment that can be powered down whenever the right people declare an emergency. They do not say it in those words. They simply act as if the Bill of Rights is a set of guidelines that apply only when the experts find them convenient.
Bash’s performance was not an outlier. It was a clean demonstration of the surviving mindset. The lockdowns are over. The mandates are gone. The emergency declarations have expired. But the assumption that experts outrank rights never left the building. It just learned to speak more politely until someone like Kennedy forced the issue back into the open.
The Constitution was not written as a suggestion for calm weather. It was written to restrain power precisely when fear is highest and the people in charge are most certain they know better.

Dana Bash isn’t a reporter.
She’s Big Pharma’s trusted mouthpiece for one-sided spins.
The main stream media is bought and paid for by Big Pharma!

Why were you there? Why is a sitting US Congressman venturing into a war zone while his nation negotiates peace?
How does this help “affordability” in your district? Who paid for this trip? What are your motives, other than trashing your own nation for fundraising sound bites?
This violates so many laws and national intent that I don’t know what else to say.
You’re a traitor.
Israeli settlers, brandishing American made M4s, detained me & other Americans on my trip to Palestine.
When the IDF arrived, they sided with the settlers & continued our detention.
They made a huge mistake.

Allow me to explain the difference between a Loyal American and Senator Mark Kelly (D-Sedition).
When confronted by "journalist" Margaret Brennan, a Loyal American says the following:
"Margaret, I can neither confirm nor deny the stock status of America's most sophisticated precision munitions. That information is classified, and I am therefore duty bound to not publicly divulge such information. Know this, however: we in the Senate are working closely with the Department of War to protect America's national security."
But Senator Mark Kelly (D-Sedition) instead decided to say this about our sophisticated precision munitions:
". . . it’s shocking how deep we have gone into these magazines.”
Prosecute.
Senate Armed Services Committee member Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) says the Pentagon has updated lawmakers on how many attack missiles and interceptor rounds have been fired off since the start of the war with Iran, and he says “it’s shocking how deep we have gone into these magazines.”
“We've expended a lot of munitions, and that means the American people are less safe, whether it's a conflict in the western Pacific with China or somewhere else in the world, the munitions are depleted,” he tells @margbrennan.

So, I went and read this bill Juliana keeps talking about.
It’s AB 1209.
It’s authored by gubernatorial candidate @FrancescaHongWI and it’s absolutely bonkers.
Please get comfortable and stick around because there is a whole lot of craziness to unpack.
First, the bill raises taxes on filers in Wisconsin’s top income tax bracket by 15.69% these are people making over $323K.
So now we know how they’re defining “super rich” and “billionaire.” It’s people making $323K.
This alone would make WI the 9th highest income tax state but the bill doesn’t stop there.
AB 1209 creates a new bracket starting at $750K and sets the tax rate at 17.70%.
17.70!
Under Hong’s plan, WI will be #1 in America for income taxes.
So who will be paying this tax?
Billionaires?
Not really.
Wisconsin hardly has any.
The majority of payers will be mom and pop small businesses.
This is because the overwhelming majority of small businesses file not as corporations but as individuals, pass-throughs, S-corps, etc… and pay the individual tax rate.
Close to 80% of small businesses file this way and a substantial majority of people who will be hit by this 17.7% tax will be small businesses.
So this isn’t a “billionaires” tax at all.
This is a successful small business tax.
And this is all before we get into the strange way the bill plans to increase state school aids.
Under the bill, for purposes of calculating equalization aids and revenue limits, a middle class English speaking child will only count as 71% of a child as compared to a limited-English, low income pupil.
I thought all children were equal but I guess under Hong’s bill some are more equal than others.
I’d love to see the Legislative Fiscal Bureau run this district by district so we can see who wins and who loses under Hong’s weird plan of counting some children as lesser than other children.
Finally, I don’t see anything in the bill limiting property taxes. Presumably they would just keep going up despite increased state aids.
So, how would this net out?
If this bill passed, we could immediately expect:
- Most of WI’s wealthiest would leave.
- Thousands of small businesses would close their doors.
- Large corporations will transfer their executives elsewhere and some will abandon Wi. It will no longer be possible to recruit talent to WI. (This is happening with Starbucks and Amazon right now in Washington over a 9.9% tax. Guess what a 17.7% tax will do.)
- The Packers and Brewers will not be able to recruit talent. (I spent last week with some NFL players and they assured me that this is a big deal).
- Tax revenues will plummet. WI will face a budget deficit and effectively go into recession.
- Despite the new state aid increases, local governments appear to be able to raise property taxes more (and they’ll need to after commercial values plummet due to all the office buildings being abandoned).
If this isn’t bad enough, the Hongs and Julianas of Wisconsin have other bills including a local option super tax, which is a great way to chase entrepreneurs out of your city.
But the point is that this is unserious policy. To call it sophomoric is an insult to sophomores.
This is economic suicide that can only come from the fever dreams of fervent communists.
After reading it, I’m more motivated than ever to elect @TomTiffanyWI.
