A judge canceled the air quality permit for a natural gas power plant that’s under construction along the Yellowstone River in Montana citing worries over climate change.

Liberal Chicago mayor-elect Brandon Johnson put the blame on violence and poverty in the Windy City on big corporations. "We have large corporations. Seventy percent of large corporations in the city of Chicago — in the state of Illinois, did not pay a corporate tax," Johnson said during a Thursday appearance on CBS Mornings. He argued that low investment in Chicago has led to poverty, which in turn caused violence. "Seventy percent of large corporations in the state of Illinois did not pay a corporate tax. And it's that type of restraint on our budget that has caused the type of
Cash App creator Bob Lee moved out of San Francisco because he thought the city was "deteriorating" shortly before he was fatally stabbed, a friend told NewsNation on Wednesday. Jake Shields, a former mixed martial arts fighter, told the outlet that he used to live in the area Lee was attacked in but ended up moving away because he didn't feel safe there anymore. "[Lee] did comment on San Francisco deteriorating, which is why he actually had just relocated to Miami," Shields told the outlet. 'That wasn't the only reason but was a reason," Shields told Insider. "I can't remember
For NC Rep. Tricia Cotham, being a Democrat was a part of her identity from a young age. At 12, she was registering people to vote. As a child, she worked to get Harvey Gantt elected Charlotte mayor. She was the only Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools student to ride in Bill Clinton’s motorcade during an early ‘90s visit because of her voter registration advocacy. She was former U.S. Sen. John Edwards’ first intern on Capitol Hill. Her mom, who serves in an at-large seat on the Mecklenburg Board of County Commissioners as a Democrat, fondly remembered those memories in an interview with
PORTLAND, Ore. – New data show how much Oregon has been impacted by the homelessness crisis since the start of the pandemic, and how we compare with the rest of the county. According to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Pacific Northwest saw some of the highest numbers of people unhoused from 2020 to 2022: nearly 18,000 in Oregon and more than 25,000 in Washington. (Snip) Drive around Portland and it’s hard to ignore the blocks lined with tents as the homelessness crisis becomes more severe. Now, data is also showing just how much this crisis continues

About 7,100 votes separated the two candidates, according to the Chicago Board of Elections.

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
President Joe Biden traveled to the Cummins alternative power manufacturing center in Fridley, Minnesota, on Monday, the latest stop on the soft rollout of the president's 2024 reelection campaign. In particular, Biden took credit for investing in new, clean energy projects and "bringing the supply chain back to America" through the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act and the CHIPS and Science Act, and his remarks closely resembled speeches the president has recently delivered in Maryland, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. When the United States government makes considerable resources available for new industries, what does that do to businesses?" Biden asked Monday.

Alissa Heinerscheid, the Vice President of Marketing for the Bud Light brand, part of the Belgian InBev global brewing empire, is featured in a Twitter video (hat tip: Steven Hayward of Powerline) explaining her approach to convincing enough customers to drink her product. Although the hiring of Dylan Mulvaney as a spokesfigure (is that really a word?) is not mentioned, the move is implicitly part of the strategy she outlines, which is in essence, to forget about the existing customers, who are “fratty and out of touch,” and instead acquire new, younger customers, presumably the products of the indoctrination factories we call public schools and universities.
Anthony Fauci, the former chief medical advisor under Biden, warned another pandemic will be coming soon.
Speaking at a town hall discussion with Jim Acosta earlier this week, Fauci said “there will absolutely be an outbreak of another pandemic.”

Not the German government, which continues on a collision course with reality. But Germans have figured out that the green dream is turning into a nightmare. This report is on a survey of Germans done by forsa:
An overwhelming majority of the German population is of the opinion that a successful energy transition is not realistic. According to a Forsa survey, 88 percent of respondents share this view.
88 percent! That is stunning.
Cat got your tongue, Bud Light? The giant beer corporation has been silent for over a week, ever since it came to light that pretend woman Dylan Mulvaney was the pretend beer’s new spokesman. Since then, silence. Gee, Bud Light, aren’t you proud of your front guy?
Bud Light operates one of those fun, friendly social media accounts we see quite often from corporate giants these days.

Vogue Magazine never once put super-model, self-made businesswoman, and America’s most elegant First Lady Melania Trump on its cover.(Photo) The vipers at the magazine and all of the major fashion magazines colluded together and ignored Melania Trump the entire time she was First Lady.
Democrats and their media knew America would fall in love with Melania the more they were exposed to her.
So they purposely ignored her. (Photo) Meanwhile, stripper Stormy Daniels just made it in Vogue.

PROLOGUE: THE INFORMATION WAR
In 1950, Sen. Joseph McCarthy claimed that he had proof of a communist spy ring operating inside the government. Overnight, the explosive accusations blew up in the national press, but the details kept changing. Initially, McCarthy said he had a list with the names of 205 communists in the State Department; the next day he revised it to 57. Since he kept the list a secret, the inconsistencies were beside the point. The point was the power of the accusation, which made McCarthy’s name synonymous with the politics of the era.
Everybody’s favorite pretend governor Stacey Abrams (D-Two-Time Loser) has finally taken a new job after her disastrous loss to Gov. Brian Kemp (R-Ga.) in November.
Luckily for those of us in the Peach State, Stacey’s new gig isn’t in Georgia; it’s in Washington, D.C. And before you worry that the Biden administration has allowed Abrams to shape policy in any way, the wouldn’t-be governor has taken a position in academia as the first Ronald W. Walters Endowed Chair for Race and Black Politics at Howard University.
The university’s flowery statement — referring to “Stacey Abrams, Esq.” — overdramatically describes what Abrams’ job entails.
Comments:
He is expected to survive but in all likelihood will suffer from injuries for the rest of his life.
