Natural gas price spikes 25% on soaring demand
Posted By: Imright, 10/6/2021 12:33:15 PM
European and UK gas prices surged on Wednesday by more than 25 percent, energised by soaring demand before the northern hemisphere winter.Europe’s reference Dutch TTF gas price jumped to 145.19 euros per megawatt hour and UK prices soared to 347.27 pence per therm. The two markets had already rocketed in earlier deals to record peaks at 162.12 euros and 407.82 pence, respectively. “It’s panic and fear with winter just around the corner,” Commerzbank analyst Carsten Fritsch told AFP.Runaway gas prices — coupled with oil that this week struck multi-year highs — have fuelled global concern over spiking inflation.

At the time, he threatened to relocate Tesla’s operations to Texas or Nevada.On Thursday, however, Musk cited the cost of housing in the Bay Area
On Thursday during a visit to Chicago at the Clayco Construction site in Elk Grove Village, President Joe Biden had a mental breakdown while trying to promote his vaccine mandates. At one point during his speech, Biden forgot how to speak. “The Ohio Pennsylvania, the Ohio Pennsylvania, I’m from Pennsylvania,” Biden said as he gestured to himself. “The Illinois president.” WATCH: (Video) Here is the longer version and unfortunately for Biden, it doesn’t make him look any better.(Tweet/Video) Biden has been concerning Americans in recent months with his degrading mental state. While speaking to reporters, President Biden completely forgot what he was talking about,
We've all done it: rushing to get ready for work only to realise you've misplaced your keys and have to sift through piles of clutter to find them.But now scientists have developed a robot that can do it for you.The prototype, created by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), has a robotic arm with a camera and radio frequency antenna attached to its gripper.It works by searching for an object using its antenna, which bounces signals off a tiny radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag that can be attached to an item in case it goes missing.
The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health’s newest requirement for stadium events with at least 10,000 attendees goes into effect Thursday, and it is going to affect both the Rams and the Chargers for home games at SoFi Stadium.It may also affect Super Bowl LVI in February of 2022, unless L.A. County figures out the thousands of tourists who typically attend the Super Bowl and the game’s week of festivities might not wish to come under its mandates, which are among the harshest in the country.Under the new public health order, fans ages 12 and over must provide proof of a COVID-19 vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test result
President Trump calls out Fiona Hill for being a “Deep State stiff”.President Trump released another statement today, this one focused on the corrupt Fiona Hill. Fiona Hill was terrible at her job. The first time I remember hearing her name was during Impeachment Hoax # 1, where she worked hard to say anything bad, but there wasn’t much. It was a total con job. She may have been in the Oval and conference rooms with me, but this was not anybody who I recognized. Then she acted like she was a know-it-all, but in reality, she had no influence whatsoever.
The Senate voted to end debate and pass a bill to increase the debt ceiling for less than two months on Thursday evening, narrowly avoiding a government shutdown and the federal government's first-ever debt default. First up was a vote to suspend debate on raising the debt ceiling, where 10 Republican votes were needed for a 60-vote majority. Eleven GOP senators did so - Mitch McConnell, Ky., John Cornyn, Texas, Lisa Murkowski, Alaska, John Thune, S.D., Susan Collins, Maine, John Barrasso, Wyo., Rob Portman, Ohio, Roy Blunt, Mo., Richard Shelby, La., Shelley Capito, W. Va. and Sen. Mike Rounds.The vote was 61-38.
The teenage gunman who opened fire in an Arlington, Texas, school on Wednesday celebrated at home after being released on a $75,000 bond while his victims, a 15-year-old boy and a 25-year-old teacher, remained in the hospital, one of them clinging to life. Timothy George Simpkins was being held on a $75,000 bond on three charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon but the 18-year-old walked out of Tarrant County Jail on Thursday afternoon. A bondsman met the bail terms on Thursday, posting at least some of the full amount, and he walked free. On Wednesday, he pulled a gun from his backpack and shot
From the mouths of babes…Joe Biden traveled to Howell, Michigan on Tuesday to pitch his unpopular $3.5 trillion socialist ‘infrastructure’ spending plan. THOUSANDS of Trump supporters lined the streets and greeted Joe Biden with “F**k Joe Biden” flags and gestures as he rode by. But it wasn’t just the adults.A Gateway Pundit reader sent in this video from a school bus in Howell near the protests. The school kids were ALSO chanting “F**k Joe Biden!” Maybe there is hope for America?
SALT LAKE CITY— President Joe Biden will expand two sprawling national monuments in Utah that have been at the center of long-running public lands tug-of-war between presidential administrations, the state’s governor said Thursday.Gov. Spencer Cox, a Republican, released a statement expressing disappointment in the administration’s decision to enlarge the Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante monuments, which were downsized significantly under President Donald Trump. They cover vast expanses of southern Utah where red rocks reveal petroglyphs and cliff dwellings and distinctive twin buttes bulge from a grassy valley. The Trump administration had cut Bears Ears, on lands considered sacred to Native American tribes, by 85% and slashed Grand Staircase-Escalante
There’s no need to wonder how poorly the press is reacting to Fox News turning 25 — they are telling us.In 1996, a true upstart news channel made its debut. Outside of those in the media biosphere, there was not much fanfare, largely because FoxNews had not established all of the carriage agreements with cable providers. Something that would take years to establish held the network back from being a true contender in the ratings but gradually, the network became more entrenched, and then the established news outlets began to realize they had a contender to deal with as true competition.
Two Ohio lawmakers want to give all Ohio students the option of school choice and create K-12 education competition, which they say would raise the level of public and private education throughout the state.The Ohio Backpack Bill, originally introduced in May and updated with a sub-bill to House Bill 290 , would allow all parents to send their children to public school or establish an education savings account. The state would send the money earmarked for that student to the public school or into the parent’s account, allowing it to be used for private school tuition or other education expenses.

More than one-fifth of the nation’s largest 100 school districts have contracts with a Critical Race Theory-tinged firm cofounded by the son-in-law of Attorney General Merrick Garland, who recently raised the specter of involving the FBI against parents who express anger over CRT and other issues at school board meetings.Garland’s daughter is married to Xan Tanner, a cofounder of Panorama Education, which issues surveys to students asking if they are feeling “genderfluid,” and asks, “How confident are you that students at your school can have honest conversations with each other about race?”

Moving on Up: LA and Seattle Homeless

Will Be Relocated to Taxpayer-Funded Luxury Apartments 45 replies
Three glistening new buildings in downtown Seattle with 165 studio apartments — originally to be rented at market rates — will instead house the homeless.
The Low Income Housing Institute (LIHI) is buying the buildings with taxpayer dollars for about $50 million, with federal COVID-19 relief funds splitting the cost equally. Seattle City Hall is contributing about $25 million, while also using “American Rescue Plan Act” funds. A large portion comes from Washington State’s Department of Commerce.
Left-wing Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan, so unpopular she can’t run for re-election, claims the deals will house people quickly and cheaply, compared to the time and cost required to develop similar projects from scratch.
One of Colorado’s largest hospital systems has implemented a new policy that denies organ transplants to patients who have not taken the experimental Covid-19 vaccine under “almost all situations.”All organ donors will also have to be vaccinated under the new policy, and it has already stopped one woman from receiving the life-saving treatment she needs.Last month, the University of Colorado Health sent a letter to Leilani Lutali informing her that her status on the waiting list for a kidney transplant was “inactivated” for “non-compliance” because she has chosen not to take the jab.
Coweta County, GA – An alleged home intruder wanted on multiple warrants was found dead on the front porch of a residence after he broke into a house and was mauled to death by two dogs, according to police. Coweta County sheriff’s deputies were called to a residence on Walt Sanders Road off of North Highway 29 at approximately 10:30 a.m. on Sept. 24 after the homeowner returned to his house and found a man dead on his porch, The Newnan Times-Herald reported. The deceased man was later identified as 21-year-old Alex Binyam Abraha, an Atlanta resident who was wanted on multiple warrants out of Fulton County, according to WTVT.

HOWELL, MI -- President Joe Biden saw a clear message from the window of his motorcade while driving to an event in Howell on Tuesday.
“F*** Biden” was visible on flags and signs carried by a crowd of protesters gathered along M-59 in Livingston County, a deeply conservative part of the state. U.S. Rep. Elissa Slotkin, D-Holly, said she was “embarrassed” by the profane message as she sat next to the president, who pointed out the signs as they passed by the rally.
Biden is Brewing a National Crisis

Have we ever had a president who in mere months made so many dumb, intemperate decisions, thereby precipitating major crises? You’d think that the Afghanistan and border fiascos would suffice for one four-year term. But the smart money is that we haven’t seen the last of Biden-manufactured crises. Biden is a nightmare version of Pig-Pen of the Peanuts comic strip.. A perpetual cloud of incompetence, conceits, corruption, and shabby political motives swirls around him. (snip) As Niall Stanage of the Hill put it, “President Biden’s biggest vulnerability isn’t any single issue. It’s the risk that he could be seen as losing control of events.”

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki attempted to walk back a statement by presidential climate envoy John Kerry which claimed President Joe Biden "had not been aware of what had transpired" following a submarine deal with Australia that upset the French. "Of course he was aware of the French being upset," Psaki said in response to a question on the matter from Fox News' Peter Doocy. "He of course was aware, the president, of the French being displeased about the deal with the Australians. John Kerry also speaks regularly to the French as part of his role as the climate envoy. He's someone who also served as Secretary of State."
Doctors are getting angry at their patients

One of the more bizarre twists in the saga of the COVID pandemic has been doctors growing increasingly frustrated and even angry with patients asking for medical treatment rather than wholesale vaccination. (snip) Some patients take exception to this approach and ask for ivermectin, which is being used outside of the United States to treat early COVID. There is a significantly lower incidence of serious cases of COVID in countries that use ivermectin for early exposures.
Doctors are not taking kindly to the suggestion that patients should have access to medication that can prevent serious illness. They are denouncing ivermectin as a veterinary drug
Is it really a surprise that a formal move toward police repression of its political opponents – siccing the FBI on critics of Critical Race Theory – is coming from the chief law enforcement officer of the Biden regime? The latest polling indicates that the already low public approval of the Biden presidency is declining further.
The prospects for any improvement in these numbers are poor. (snip) The term “crisis of confidence” has been in play for at least a month (snip) More than half of Americans say 55 - 42 percent that the Biden administration is not competent in running the government.
A district court judge issued a Temporary Restraining Order blocking Texas S.B. 8 abortion law on Wednesday, finding in favor of the U.S. Department of Justice, which had sought the order to block the law from going into effect. "A person’s right under the Constitution to choose to obtain an abortion prior to fetal viability is well established. Fully aware that depriving its citizens of this right by direct state action would be flagrantly unconstitutional, the State contrived an unprecedented and transparent statutory scheme to do just that," U.S. District Judge Robert Pittman, of the Western District of Texas, Austin Division, wrote in a 113-page ruling.

White House Weaponizes DOJ Against Parents
25 replies
It should be obvious that no sane parent would ever allow ideology to supersede the proper education of her children. Yet, during the past year, it has become equally clear that many of the nation’s school systems are indoctrinating students using politically tendentious curricula that most of the public considers . . . well . . . insane. This has resulted in widespread protests by parents of all political persuasions to which school boards have responded with stunning hostility. The magnitude of this animus was revealed this week when the National School Boards Association (NSBA) equated parents with “domestic terrorists,” and the Biden administration directed the FBI to investigate them.
