Posted By: Imright, 4/3/2023 12:21:53 PM

The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), a consortium of the world’s largest oil-producing nations, made the announcement Sunday in a preemptive measure against what it perceived as a future slowdown in demand. U.S. oil prices surged to nearly $80 a barrel, the largest increase in almost a year.

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse for the Windy City, there is yet another election that will have residents blowing out for greener pastures.
Brandon Johnson, a radical socialist candidate, defeated moderate Democrat Paul Vallas in the race to replace Chicago mayor/Beetlejuice-lookalike Lori Lightfoot.As noted by journalist Andy Ngo, Johnson had called for “removing law enforcement from society. During the 2020 riots, he defended looters, saying they were lashing out against racism.”
Felony assaults on New Yorkers are continuing to rise across New York City, specifically in the borough of Manhattan, as Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D) exhausts city resources on a 34-count felony case against former President Donald Trump.
In 2022, violent crime in New York City rose 23 percent, with more than 126,500 arrests made for murder and non-negligent manslaughter, robbery, felony assault, rape, burglary, grand larceny, and grand larceny auto — the seven major crime categories.
Joe Biden hid like a coward most of Tuesday as his likely 2024 political opponent was arraigned in court on 34 felony charges.
President Trump was charged with 34 criminal counts of falsifying business records and conspiracy.
Trump was hit with a criminal charge for every payment he made to his former lawyer Michael Cohen in connection with the ‘hush payments’ to the two women.Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg went through the Trump Organization’s ledger and charged him down the line per payment to Cohen.
TOPEKA, Kan.— A Kansas bill to impose some of the nation’s broadest bathroom restrictions and ban transgender people from changing the name or gender on their driver’s licenses cleared the Legislature by margins Tuesday that suggest backers could override the Democratic governor’s expected veto.
Kansas Senate voted 28-12 with one vote more than a two-thirds majority needed to overturn any veto, giving final passage to an earlier House-passed version and sending it to Gov. Laura Kelly. Both chambers have Republican supermajorities.
The measure deals with bathrooms, locker rooms and other facilities, and defines “sex” as “either male or female, at birth,” a move LGBTQ+-rights advocates said would legally erase transgender people and
Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) said in a written statement on Tuesday that Manhattan prosecutor Alvin Bragg is setting a “dangerous precedent” by criminalizing a political opponent.
Romney, who is no fan of Trump, said in reaction to the indictment of Trump:I believe President Trump’s character and conduct make him unfit for office. Even so, I believe the New York prosecutor has stretched to reach felony criminal charges in order to fit a political agenda. No one is above the law, not even former presidents, but everyone is entitled to equal treatment under the law.
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi accidentally called former Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton 'president' at an event in New York Monday night.
Pelosi, now referred to as the 'speaker emerita,' and Clinton, the former secretary of State, U.S. senator and first lady, interviewed each other at Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs.
Clinton asked Pelosi what she viewed as the 'biggest threats and challenges facing our democracy.'
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg reportedly asked Judge Juan Marchan to hold the trial of former President Donald Trump in January 2024, which happens to be the middle of the presidential primary season.
Fox News reporter Jake Gibson, who was in the courtroom, said that prosecutors had asked for the January 2024 trial date. The Iowa caucuses — the first contest in the Republican primary — will be on February 5, 2024.That means prosecutors want a trial that would undoubtedly affect the race for the Republican nomination, both by distracting the current frontrunner, and by tarnishing him relative to other candidates in the race.
After Tuesday’s arraignment on former President Trump, Speaker Kevin McCarthy went to Twitter to voice his frustration and vowed to hold Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg accountable.
McCarthy wrote, “Alvin Bragg is attempting to interfere in our democratic process by invoking federal law to bring politicized charges against President Trump, admittedly using federal funds, while at the same time arguing that the peoples’ representatives in Congress lack jurisdiction to investigate this farce.
Soros’s Justice in U.S. and Israel

George Soros must be tickled pink. He is living out his childhood fantasy of being "some kind of god, the creator of everything," as he told the British Independent in 1993, shortly after pocketing at least $2 billion after betting against the British pound. That allowed the megalomaniac billionaire "to live it out," to meddle in domestic affairs and finances of many countries, lead numerous "color revolutions," and promote his incoherent interpretations of Henri Bergson's and Karl Popper's philosophies on the Open Society, giving it an Orwellian twist by so naming his mega political foundations.
Imagine the gleeful Soros watching the much-despised former president Donald Trump arrested
On Monday, media across the land televised former president Donald Trump’s expedition from Mar-a-Lago to New York City as his historic arraignment was just around the corner.
And while Americans saw enough of Trump’s private Boeing 757 jet from the exterior —famously emblazoned with his name — interior shots of the aircraft remained scarce.
The plane, which Trump has flown since 2011, recently received a brand new makeover.
Trump often refers to the aircraft as “Trump Force One.”
First flying back in 1991, it was operated by now-defunct carriers Sterling Airways in Denmark and TAESA Airlines in Mexico.
Bud Light on Monday addressed the criticism it received over its partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney, saying the collaboration was meant to “authentically connect with audiences.”Anheuser-Busch created a special can to celebrate what Mulvaney, a biological male, has claimed is “365 Days of Girlhood.” (Snip) While critics continued to mock the company, Kid Rock let the company know how he really feels.

Republican presidential candidate and former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson (R) said Monday on “NewsNation Prime” that former President Donald’s participation in and playing of a song recorded by the J6 Prison Choir is “undermining our system of justice.”(Snip) “Obviously, he did it because he thought it would create a stir, and he’s good at creating stirs.”Hutchinson added, “I don’t think we should elevate Jan. 6. It was a serious challenge to our democracy. It was a blight against the United States, against the world.(Snip)We need to move on and talk about the future
Jill Biden will lead the U.S. delegation to King Charles III’s coronation, representing America at the investiture of the new British monarch instead of President Joe Biden, who will not attend.
President Biden called King Charles on Tuesday to say the first lady would be going on his behalf, a source familiar told DailyMail.com.

The Department of Defense announced a massive new military aid package for Ukraine on Tuesday valued at $2.6 billion.
President Joe Biden authorized $500 million worth of ammunition for U.S.-provided HIMARS, air defense interceptors, artillery rounds, anti-armor systems, small arms, heavy equipment transport vehicles, and maintenance support through his authority to take weapons from U.S. stockpiles.

Rupert Murdoch and Ann Leslie Smith have called off their engagement, only two weeks after it was first announced. The 92-year-old media baron had proposed to the former dental hygienist, 66, with an 11-carat diamond ring thought to worth up to £2m just last month. The couple, who previously described their whirlwind romance as a 'gift from god', planned to wed this summer. But their engagement was abruptly called off today after the pair were said to have reluctantly come to 'mutual decision' after talks last night.
Renowned San Francisco drag performer Heklina was found dead Monday in London, England, where she was performing in a touring show, CBS Bay Area reported. The death of Heklina — also known as actor Stefan Grygelko — was first reported in social media posts by fellow drag artist and performing partner Peaches Christ (aka Joshua Grannell), with whom Heklina was touring in "Mommie Queerest," a musical parody of the 1981 Joan Crawford biopic "Mommie Dearest." "I am living in a real-life nightmare so forgive me if I don't have all the answers just now," read the message Grannell posted on both the
Hippocrates wrote, in Of the Epidemics, “The physician must…. have two special objects in view with regard to disease, namely, to do good or to do no harm.” (snip) The Texas Medical Board, however, does not see it that way. Because Dr. Eric Hensen of Palestine, Texas, did not universally force his ear-nose-and-throat patients to block their airways by masking, the TMB has suspended his medical license. So, the medical tyranny of the TMB continues. (Earlier this month, the TMB declared war on Dr. Mary Talley Bowden for prescribing Ivermectin off-label.)
The need for control is a reaction to fear. On the eve of the indictment of President Donald J Trump, Google, the parent company of YouTube, suspends Right Side Broadcasting Network from its broadcast platform. Let there be NO DOUBT, the coordinated Big Tech effort to control U.S. politics continues…. AUBURN, Ala. — Just one day before RSBN was set to cover President Trump’s arraignment in Manhattan, YouTube has resumed its censorship practices and suspended RSBN’s channel, blocking our ability to livestream for seven days.
Chicago voters will go to the polls on Tuesday to choose their next mayor with the out-of-control crime rate uppermost in their minds. Former Chicago public schools CEO Paul Vallas and Cook County Commissioner Brandon Johnson offer two different visions for the voters — and two different versions of reality.
Both men are Democrats and men of the left. But there are stark contrasts that separate the candidates and give the voters a clear choice.
Vallas portrays himself as a hard-headed realist. He believes that without public order, the rest of his agenda won’t matter that much. He wants to rebuild the Chicago Police Department and not just in manpower.

This weekend, Lt. Gov. Winsome Sears (R-VA) and Gov. Chris Sununu (R-NH) appeared on Real Time with Bill Maher. When Maher asked them about President Trump’s indictment, both skirted the topic.
Sears said they hadn’t seen the charges and didn't comment any further. Sununu called the indictment a circus but immediately proceeded to attack Trump, claiming he didn’t think Trump will be the GOP nominee in 2024 and that Trump can’t win the general election. `Maher’s show was a great opportunity for Sears and Sununu to explain Democrat voters how Trump is being targeted, but alas it was squandered as they opted to sit on the fence.
