It is frightening that Democrat Jewish Congressman are being thrown out of coffee shops in Brooklyn, New York. It's not 1930's Germany. This is the United States of America.

$122 for Thai takeout?

That's what’s happened in Seattle, after politicians forced a high minimum wage for DoorDashers.

Now customers order less food, and drivers get less work.

Government wage controls ALWAYS fail:

And dump the DEI

[Short Squeez @shortsqueeznews]

BREAKING: The women who went viral for stealing a Knicks-themed trash can at the parade last week was identified as Angie Báez, a Director of DEI at JPMorgan.

JPMorgan reportedly fired Báez after the video of her got millions of views on social media, and the firm confirmed today she is no longer with the firm.

Latest ad from Cooper pivots to defending his criminal justice record. #ncpol #ncsen
He says as AG, he put away murderers and rapists and as Gov. he "kept them there," which is obviously false given both the COVID prisoner release list that had violent offenders, incl. 51 with life sentences on it:
https://t.co/OIqssRFm6K
The releasees have been documented as having an over 51% recidivism rate:
https://t.co/Q3zXk6duXx
Also, his TREC group advocated for things like cashless bail, but also placed its focus on "enhanced accountability" for police but not offenders:
https://t.co/Cp4LI6wA4I
Also worth noting, as he was leaving the AG's office, it flew under the radar for a while that NC was number one in the nation for untested rape kits (over 15,000).
https://t.co/bCWMOlCL7e
The backlog landed on Josh Stein when he took over.
The #ncga stepped up with funds to help clear it, and in the lead up to the 2024 gubernatorial election, Stein said his agency had cleared the backlog, but the dashboard tracking those kits tells another story.

Once the Peak of Good Living, now the Peak of Too Much Spending! Apex just can’t say “no” ⬇️

[🇺🇸Klena @Klena33]

🚨 Apex, NC homeowners & North Carolina residents: Another property tax hike just passed - the "7th" consecutive increase since 2019 under current Town Council leadership.
1.75-cent increase to 37.35¢ per $100 valuation for FY27! This is hitting Triangle families hard. @JohnLockeNC
Thread with the full breakdown 👇 #ncpol

[Michael Whatley @WhatleyNC]

Roy Cooper opposed them as well. He wanted every NC household to pay $5,700 more on taxes than they did on April 15!

[Bonchie @bonchieredstate]

Only way I’d support this is if you also cap beneficiaries.

If one promise about funding caps is going to be broken, resulting in a massive tax hike, then other promises can be broken.

Younger Americans should not have to pay more so a retired millionaire can buy an extra boat.

[DJ Griffin @theDJGriffin]

Stop kidding yourself.

You were an abject failure at keeping North Carolina families safe.

25 people are dead because of your actions.

[John Stossel @JohnStossel]

Seattle city council wanted to help "exploited" gig workers.

So they forced delivery apps to pay drivers MORE.

"I wouldn’t assume that prices are going to go up," said one politician.

But prices DID go up.

[Reagan Paul @RepReaganPaul]

Trump just spent $765 million to cancel Maine’s floating wind leases and redirect the money to reliable energy like natural gas and nuclear.

So-called “environmental” groups like NRCM keep pushing the fairy tale that this was a great deal for Maine. Truth is- it was a great deal for them. In reality, these politicized projects delivered mostly short-term, taxpayer-funded union jobs while sticking ratepayers with expensive, unreliable power.

The “green economy” isn’t real — it’s just recycling taxpayer dollars to produce high-cost energy that harms actual businesses trying to compete and grow.

Good riddance to the grift. The Gulf of Maine stays turbine-free for now, and Maine families won’t foot the bill for this self-serving green fantasy. Real energy wins.

[Chip Roy @chiproytx]

The Housing bill is full of big government garbage & spending. Yet the @HouseGOP is going to muscle it through with democrats tomorrow over conservative opposition. Just a few of its sins:

1. Rep Tlaib’s Sec. 207 (H.R. 6768), which is a $200 million affordable housing pilot program to incentivize dense subsidized ‘affordable housing’ units.
2. Sec. 101: ‘reforms’ housing counseling agencies (HCAs) to provide rental dispute services to bad tenants facing lawful eviction. There is no reason we should be providing government-funded counselors to help people derail lawful evictions.
3. Sec. 106: establishes an eviction helpline program. For the same reasons as above, we should not subsidize the derailing of lawful eviction process for bad tenants.
4. A three-year authorization (with a ‘sense of Congress’ that it should be extended permanently) of the controversial Community Development Block Grant Disaster Relief (CDBG-DR) program. The program is controversial because its dispersement has been seriously flawed in the past - payments have taken years to be made,and the allocations have overwhelmingly gone to dense metro areas, ignoring rural communities... it should be scrapped entirely, and disaster repair payments should only be done by FEMA.
5. Indefinitely reauthorizes the HOME grant program and significantly expands the criteria for eligibility.
6. 7-year authorization of what had been an original Senate Pilot program to the Preservation and Reinvestment Initiative for Community Enhancement (PRICE) which authorizes HUD to provide grants to grantees like NGOs, government agencies, and other organizations to purchase trailer parks, on the condition that they charge “affordable” rent.
7. RAD Program: Authorizes the Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) program reauthorization (which the house removed) and increases the cap to 100,000 units. This program is terrible as it provides vouchers for localities to raise money to convert units into long-term section 8 housing.
8. Does nothing to limit Foreign Ownership: Similar to Rep. Stuebe’s amendment to the farm bill on FCOC and FEOC bans on agricultural land purchases, language should have been included for aforeign adversary ban on housing stock purchases… there is no language prohibiting a Chinese citizen or company from buying an American single-family home.
9. Does nothing to 1) Make Sanctuary jurisdictions ineligible for housing grant funding. 2) or Codify Trump’s ‘Mixed Status’ rule, which prohibits the prorating of housing welfare and benefits to households with illegal or ineligible alien residents.
10. Keeps Eviction Moratorium: Included in the CARES Act, was a 30-day eviction moratorium. While most of the CARES Act sunsetted or has been repealed post-COVID, this provision remains on the books.

"They've been using their NGO's to dump fake voter registration forms utilizing the fake SS#'s on key county registrar's offices for the last 5-6 election cycles. Then using those fraudulent voter registrations to request ballots in the mail. Then they pay the NGO's to have their staff fill out the ballots and mail them in." @drawandstrike

The attempted assassin’s name is Nicholas Roske, and he’s a man.

Nicholas traveled to Justice Kavanaugh’s home after the draft Dobbs opinion leaked to murder him.

Listen to the 911 call that the media is attempting to downplay cause he’s transgender now.

Filming on the Pope’s street, Dolton IL.

Boarded up homes, broken glass, weeds. A desperate community.

Why?

What policies caused this collapse of a once-pleasant community where Leo grew up???

[Congressman Pat Harrigan @RepPatHarrigan]

North Carolina will have a pavilion at the Great American State Fair after all!

@SpevcoInc, @RCRracing, and @operationhelo are sponsoring the state's presence on the National Mall for the nation's 250th birthday celebration, at no cost to taxpayers.

Proud to see these companies step up for North Carolina.

[Steve Cortes @CortesSteve]

Does the Pope care?

I’m at his home parish in Dolton, Illinois…now closed.

Broken windows, broken dreams.

A once-pleasant middle-class suburb ruined by terrible policies — making a documentary for Cortes Investigates…
