The G-7 summit in Puglia, Italy has been a parade of some pretty memorable moments already, and none of them have to do with earthshaking political announcements or new agreements. It's all personalities and intrigue - so different from any other time, other than Merkel snarling at Trump. This year's edition is hosted by Italian Prime Minister Georgia Meloni, who is fresh off her election day triumph just this past Sunday. She's been the perfect hostess on a world stage and a savvy politician, solicitous of friends while leaving no question who she holds in little regard. The embattled Prime Minister of England is one of her particular favorites.

The Justice Department said Friday it will not prosecute Merrick Garland on contempt-of-Congress charges, two days after House Republicans voted to hold the attorney general in contempt for refusing to turn over the audio from President Joe Biden’s interview with special counsel Robert Hur. The DOJ said Friday the refusal to provide the audio did not amount to a crime. House lawmakers voted 216–207 on the Garland contempt resolution on Wednesday, with one Republican representative, Dave Joyce of Ohio, joining Democrats in voting against it. Eight members did not vote on the measure.

The United States Supreme Court struck down the Trump administration’s 2018 ban on bump stocks in a Friday ruling, with Justice Clarence Thomas writing the majority opinion in a 6-3 decision. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) issued the ban at former president Donald Trump’s urging after the gunman who killed 58 people in a 2017 Las Vegas shooting was found to have used bump stocks, which increase a rifle’s rate of fire by using the recoil from a semiautomatic rifle to fire bullets in rapid succession. The Trump administration argued in 2018 that adding bump stocks to semiautomatic rifles converts them into machine guns

It's been a busy two weeks for ICE agents in Houston. Five bad hombres have been arrested, thanks to the efforts of fugitive operations officers from the federal Office of Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) in Houston and the ERO Waco office. All five men are currently wanted for murder or homicide in the United States or in another country. A press release issued by ICE described the criminal illegal aliens. They are Mexicans and Hondurans. A 38-year-old unlawfully present Honduran national wanted in Mexico for multiple murders who was apprehended on May 23 in Galveston.

The Supreme Court on Thursday issued a ruling that sided with coffee giant Starbucks in its challenge against a lower court's order that it rehire seven employees who had been fired amid a unionization push. In an 8-1 decision, the justices threw out the lower court's approval of an injunction sought by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) that ordered Starbucks to reinstate the workers while the NLRB's administrative case against the coffee chain proceeds. The case concerned a group of seven workers at a Starbucks in Memphis, Tennessee, whose store became one of the first to unionize in 2022. During their organizing efforts, they allowed a TV news crew

In the history of U.S. corporate pay packages, there have been plenty of massive payouts worth almost $1 billion in today's dollars. But none comes close to the $46 billion pay deal Tesla shareholders on Thursday handed to CEO Elon Musk. The results of the shareholder vote, which concluded today, were announced during Tesla's annual meeting, prompting a standing ovation from shareholders attending the Thursday event. Musk had already declared victory, writing late Wednesday on his social media platform X that shareholders were voting to approve the pay package by "wide margins."

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Wednesday signed a $116.5 billion budget for the upcoming fiscal year, after vetoing close to $950 million in spending approved by lawmakers in March. “Some of the stuff I don't think was appropriate for state tax dollars,” DeSantis said of the vetoes during a budget-signing event at The Vault, a venue in Tampa. “Some of the stuff you'll see are things that I support, but we have actual programs for.” A wide range of groups quickly praised the budget for including money for their priorities. As examples, the Everglades Trust touted more than $740 million for Everglades restoration, the Florida Health Care Association

US President Joe Biden awkwardly saluted Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni as he arrived at the G7 summit in Italy on Thursday. Biden, 81, was the last of the world leaders to arrive at the venue in southern Puglia as he shuffled onto the stage where Meloni was waiting. The two spoke for a few moments before Meloni pointed towards a frame of the G7 logo, which each leader in attendance signed with a marker. As he began his walk off the platform, Biden raised his right arm over his eye and saluted his Italian counterpart. The G7 is an informal

Over 'Gender-Affirming Care' for Children

An activist judge struck down Florida's ban on "gender-affirming care" for minors on Tuesday, delivering a setback to Gov. Ron DeSantis' attempt to protect children. The ruling claimed the law it was "unconstitutional" because it denied "medically appropriate care." Judge Robert L. Hinkle stated in his decision that "gender identity is real," using his power to legalize the mutilation of children. U.S. District Judge Robert L. Hinkle ruled the ban is unconstitutional at least in part because it applies even when gender-affirming care for minors is “medically appropriate,” according to the judgment. Hinkle said in the ruling that “gender identity is real”
The Times Backpedals On Immigration 4 replies
Posted by Dreadnought 6/13/2024 12:36:29 AM Post Reply
Democrats saw what happened in Europe last week, and they can read the polls. The Biden administration’s policy of mass illegal immigration is hugely unpopular, and after nearly four feckless years, the Democrats are finally going to pay a price. So this morning’s New York Times email suggests that it is time to change course. The Times begins by acknowledging that current levels of immigration (legal and illegal) are more or less unprecedented: The first thing to understand is how unusual the modern migration boom has been. In nearly every large Western country, the foreign-born share of the population has risen sharply since 1990. It’s not clear

Social Security relies on its trust funds to provide monthly benefit checks to around 70 million Americans.

Donald Trump got his 78th birthday present a day early — a handshake from his longtime bitter critic, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, encapsulating the Republican Party’s complete submission to its presumptive presidential nominee. The twice-impeached 45th president and newly convicted criminal was back on Capitol Hill Thursday for the first time since his supporters beat up police officers and smashed their way through the US Capitol on January 6, 2021.

Nancy Pelosi is losing it. The former Democrat Speaker of the House is the walking personification of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Her hatred for the former (and likely next) president burns white-hot, as evidenced by her petulant, childish, immature, and unbecoming incident in which she tore up her copy of President Trump's 2020 State of the Union speech. Now, she's just becoming pathetic, as we see in her recent interview with MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell, where she begged the Trump family and the GOP to "stage an intervention" to prevent Trump from running. Why? Probably because she can see that he's winning.

Fortunately, Friday is Joe Biden's last day in Italy for the G7, so the time that he can embarrass us overseas at the conference is thankfully coming to an end. We've seen him wandering and people having to help redirect him back to where he was supposed to be going. We've seen him giving garbled answers and snapping at a reporter because the reporter dared to ask him a question at his presser that wasn't about Ukraine. That managed to get a reaction out of the White House Correspondents Association. They threw Biden under the bus in their statement, saying there were no "deals" as he claimed.

The Los Angeles City Council has decided to remove ‘No U-Turn’ signs from a gay neighborhood, claiming they’re homophobic. In an era where ideologies should be advancing, it’s baffling that the far-left remains stuck in the past, misreading everyday symbols as politicized messages. Who, in the year 2024, still believes that road signs like “No U-Turn” are covert directives aimed at the LGBTQ+ community, instructing them not to engage in wild sex in the streets? I didn’t know that traffic signs were hurting feelings. According to the LA Times: Messages like, “No cruising. No U-turns. Midnight to 6 am” were posted around the neighborhood in 1997,

Democrats plan to disrupt Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech to a special joint session of Congress on July 24 in an unprecedented show of hostility to the democratically-elected leader of a close American ally. 56 Democrats boycotted Netanyahu’s speech in 2015, when Republicans invited him to argue against then-President Barack Obama’s nuclear deal with Iran. This time, Axios reports, “Democrats plan to go bigger than a boycott”: The proposals include a press conference, a vigil, or an event with families of those taken hostage by Hamas, many of whom feel Netanyahu hasn’t done enough to free their loved ones. In a sign of how extensive and high-level some of these discussions are,

That's the way I think they're going to sell it,' he said.
