FDR is often praised for “saving” us from the Great Depression.

But economist Don Boudreaux says he actually made things WORSE.

Here’s how:

This is nonsense.

Over the last century, there has been no increase in heatwaves in the United States, as confirmed in a new paper just published in the Journal of Theoretical and Applied Climatology. Christy (2026) states very clearly,

Elizabeth Warren wants to retract her endorsement of Graham Platner but she doesn’t want to look like an Indian giver.

[Charles R Downs @TheCharlesDowns]

Right before Elizabeth Warren (@ewarren) voted against Pete Hegseth (@SecWar) in 2025, she told me that Hegseth was a drunk and essentially a threat to women and children.

This is the same Elizabeth Warren who described Graham Platner (@grahamformaine) as “the fire we need.”

Platner announced he is taking time to “reflect on his campaign” after he was accused of sexual assault.

Elected Democrats are hypocrites and liars.

@CynicalPublius Spot on! I had mine replaced on March 3rd. 67 yes old. Had ACL replacement 45 years ago on same knee, it was significantly more difficult recovery.

Jake can we can an update on the “young girl, sitting alone, and BRAVE?”

I don’t even care about “Patriot Front” or whatever

Yet this is so despicable, dishonest, or maybe just dumb of you that now we have to stick up for them

Great work, Jake.

Really. Bang up job.

Carefully examine what these looters are pushing. Elon (@elonmusk) pays the maximum into a system he is forced to fund and will never be repaid for. Social Security was sold as a retirement plan the government would safeguard. It is a Ponzi scheme, running out of money, and now they want the power to seize and redistribute even more.

Start with your own dishonesty, Senator. Musk pays the same because the benefit is capped too. The most anyone collects is about $4,200 a month, no matter how much they pay in. The cap on contributions exists because the cap on benefits exists. You know this. You left it out, because the outrage doesn't survive the full sentence.

"Scrap the cap" means he pays vastly more and gets nothing additional back. That is not a contribution to his retirement. It is pure confiscation, the mask of "insurance" finally dropped.

And notice what you admit by needing his money at all. The system is broke. The Ponzi scheme has reached the stage where it must devour the productive to pay the promises it already can't keep. You are not fixing it. You are feeding more people into a machine you know is failing.

Here is the "fair share" you never mention: Musk is the single largest individual taxpayer in human history, funding your government by orders of magnitude more than the electrician you hide behind. He consumes none of it. He built the companies, the jobs, the wealth. His crime, in your eyes, is succeeding.

You don't want fairness. You want a producer to rob and a villain to sell. The electrician isn't your concern. He's your prop.

[Wide Awake Media @wideawake_media]

"The whole thing is a fallacy right from the start."

Geologist Ian Plimer dispels the "climate crisis" narrative, arguing that no scientific paper to date has demonstrated human-induced carbon dioxide emissions as a driver of global warming.

He maintains that climate models fail because they assume CO₂ drives temperature rise, which he describes as a religious belief unsupported by evidence.

Dear Alicia Keys,

Name one right that women DON’T have in America?! I will wait.

Please know that women are FREE to join men working on offshore oil rigs, on deep sea crabbing and fishing vessels, logging trees with gigantic chainsaws, underwater welding for bridge construction and underground mining.

You and purty lady friends can also collect garbage and recycling at 6 in the morning and when you’re done with that you girls are welcome to risk your lives restoring electricity on high power lines.

These “rights” are waiting for you but you gals won’t do it, because you need men to do it. Because that is what men do: risk their lives day in and day out so you lovely girls can just pretend that all those things magically take care of themselves while you bitch and moan about perceived injustices and lack of rights.

So you go girl, Enjoy your electricity and your roads being repaired and your garbage being magically picked up every Tuesday morning and your fancy vegetables and grass fed steaks trucked into your grocery store at 5 in the morning, while you have Vietnamese ladies paint your toenails.

You can call it toxic masculinity, but you would cry your lovely fake eyelashes off when your Air Conditioning breaks down for more than 3 hours.

Your welcome!

Yours truly,
MEN

1993 Patty Murray becomes a Senator.
1995 Elon Musk starts his first company.

In the over 30 years since then, @elonmusk has disrupted multiple mature industries, founded 7 major companies and built hundreds of thousands of jobs.

In the same period, Patty has been unable to change one line of federal social security legislation.

Who is the real problem here @PattyMurray?

The summer heatwave gripping southern Europe right now is nothing new — it's an ancient, recurring weather pattern.

Media coverage has largely failed to explain what's actually happening. This is a commonplace event with a long history.

The classic name for these hot winds (and the associated air masses) blowing northward from the Sahara Desert across the Mediterranean into southern Europe is the Sirocco.

It transports warm, dry — and often dusty — air from North Africa. As it crosses the sea, the air picks up moisture, arriving as humid, oppressive conditions over Italy, Spain, Malta, southern France and beyond. Sirocco winds can reach strong or even gale-force speeds. While most common in spring and autumn, they occur in summer too.

Effects include Saharan dust outbreaks that can turn skies reddish, produce 'blood rain', spike temperatures, and create discomfort. These events are frequently accompanied by a broad African anticyclone (or 'African heat dome') — a large high-pressure system that pushes hot air northward, driving wider European heatwaves.

Saharan dust outbreaks and the Saharan air layer often ride along, carrying fine particles far north and contributing to hazy skies. Far from unusual, these are well-known drivers of summer extremes in the region — as the attached Copernicus image clearly shows with the prominent dust plume streaming toward Italy and beyond.

@ShiningScience Classic example, folks, of distortion by this so-called Shining Science. Look at WHEN the hottest July temps occurred. Only 6 states since 2000. As for Alaska, that 100 occurred on June 27, 1915. ARE NOW A REALITY? IT'S BEEN THAT WAY FOR OVER A CENTURY

[Chris Martz @ChrisMartzWX]

“100° temperatures are now a reality in all 50 U.S. states.”

They have been a reality for well over a century. Alaska’s record of 100°F was set in June 1915.

But you forgot to mention that.

I wonder why?

[Peter Clack @PeterDClack]

Dismantling the world's power structure of coal, oil, and gas — at enormous cost — could be the costliest error of judgment in history.

Despite decades of installing wind turbines and solar panels, intermittent renewables are still unable to equal the dense, reliable energy of hydrocarbons without backup. Replacing the world grid with intermittent power carries a nominal price tag of $178 trillion 'so far'; the total transition by 2050 will cost an estimated $275 trillion (McKinsey Global, 2022).

No one appears to have thought through the colossal pitfalls lying a decade or so ahead. This building spree already suggests there will be waves of ongoing environmental degradation, as picturesque landscapes, coastal vistas, and farmland are hijacked for wind and solar 'farms' — leaving behind a legacy of industrial carnage.

Crucially, coal was the primary driver of the Industrial Revolution in the 18th century, providing the intense heat needed to generate steam and power factories, trains, and ships during the icy depths of the Little Ice Age — a desperate era of cold and starvation.

Today, there are still vast known and untapped reserves of coal, oil and gas:
* Coal: 1.06 trillion tonnes (approx. 132 years remaining).
* Gas: 7,299 trillion cubic feet (approx. 143 years remaining).
* Oil: 1.65 trillion barrels (approx. 53 years remaining).

An undiscovered world could contain two or three times as much, enough to last another three centuries.

The "round-ups" did NOT involve AEA removals. Those guys were mostly already in jail. They were selected for removal - on about 72 hours notice -- because they had TdA links established in their "A" files. You know what those are, right?

Holman said in multiple press conferences in the summer 2025 that DHS wouldn't need to go into the communities if local and state law enforcement cooperated -- but the sanctuary jurisdictions refused. So for those communities, round-ups it was.

The boy you keep defending wasn't even released. He' been continuously in custody since Aug 2024 when he tried to cross the border at San Ysidro. The Biden Admin. DHS tagged him as TdA and kept him in custody. It was their designation of him as TdA that the Trump DHS relied on to put him on the first AEA flight out on March 14.

Or didn't you know that?

The "roundups" started in SoCal in June 2025, the moved to Oregon, then to Chicago, then to Minneapolis.

You are, in fact, clueless.

A supposedly smart ECB board member claims climate disasters are worsening

Media bias makes it feel that way — more dramatic coverage

Reality: Weather-related deaths and costs dropping for decades bc adaptation, wealth, and resilience

AMERICA 250

I think it's cool to be an American.

I think it's cool to love your country.

I think it's cool…

…that this country took a kid from England with nothing but a dream and gave him every shot to build a life he never could have imagined back home

…that I get to serve the men and women who wear the cloth of our nation through the Robert Irvine Foundation

...that in the picture above, a guy who came up in the British Royal Navy is becoming an Honorary Chief Petty Officer of the US Navy

…that after 250 years, the American idea is still the boldest bet on human freedom the world has ever seen

…that no matter where you start or what your name is, America still bets on the person willing to outwork everybody else

…that the right to fail, learn, and come back swinging is the greatest gifts this country offers

…that my daughters got to grow up in a place where their only limits are the ones they set for themselves

I think it's cool to love your country.

I think it's cool to be an American.

God bless this great nation of ours.

Happy Fourth to all who celebrate.

To everyone else, grab a plate and pull up a chair. There's so much more I'd love to tell you about this place, which turned out to be everything I dreamed of and so much more. This country belongs to all who are willing to show up and do the work of building it.

That's worth celebrating.
