This is a great interview that is California energy related. : https://t.co/V8za0piLMe

Democrats just openly admitting they’ll rig an election if it doesn’t go their way.

Wild.

[QThestorm @17QStorm]

🚨 BOOM! California Democrats are DESPERATELY trying to RIG the Governor’s race by FLIPPING the election rules MID-GAME!

They’re ramming through a new ballot initiative to REPEAL the “Top 2” primary system — the SAME rigged setup they CHEERED when it LOCKED OUT Republicans for 15 YEARS — because now the top two candidates are REPUBLICANS ready to CRUSH them!

Longtime Deep State operative Steve Maviglio (ex-comms director for Gray Davis) is the insider behind this sleazy power grab, filing paperwork to force closed party primaries and keep Democrats in control forever.

Hypocrisy level: MAXIMUM. They loved the “Top 2” scam when it helped them… now that it’s backfiring, time to cheat the system AGAIN!

The STORM is forcing every Democrat election manipulation playbook into the light in real time — Patriots, they’re panicking and we SEE IT ALL!

ITS CONFIRMED !!!

[Sawyer Merritt @SawyerMerritt]

The California Coastal Commission has issued a formal apology to @elonmusk and SpaceX, adding that it will not consider political views or speech in future regulatory decisions.

• The Commission admits some officials made politically biased and improper statements about SpaceX and Elon Musk
• It formally apologizes for those remarks
• Agrees it will not consider political views or speech in future regulatory decisions
• The Commission will NOT require coastal permits for most launch operations at Vandenberg

Full statement: "The Commission agrees that it may not consider irrelevant factors in performing its function and specifically agrees that it will not take into account the perceived political beliefs, political speech, or labor practices of SpaceX or its officers in considering any regulatory action concerning SpaceX. The Commission acknowledges that Commissioners made statements, including during their October 10, 2024, hearing on the Base’s Falcon 9 launch program, that showed political bias against SpaceX and its CEO and were improper. The Commission apologizes for those statements, as set forth in the signed letter attached as Exhibit C."

This filing means that SpaceX and the California Coastal Commission have reached a settlement in their federal lawsuit, and it provides long-term regulatory clarity for SpaceX for future Falcon 9 launches.

We were there front and center.

That venue wasn’t built to accommodate an event with the line of succession for the U.S. government.

After witnessing last night, drop the TDS and build the White House ballroom for events exactly like these.

Your smart TV is taking screenshots of your screen every 15 seconds.

Not a guess. Not a theory.

A peer-reviewed study by researchers at UC Davis, UCL, and UC3M tested it.

Samsung TVs: every minute.
LG TVs: every 15 seconds.

Even when you're just using it as a monitor.

Here's how to turn it off for every brand:

[Nick Sortor @nicksortor]

🚨 WOW! Nick Shirley went confronted California’s House Speaker to her FACE over the Stop Nick Shirley Act

And of course, she RAN AWAY!

@nickshirleyy: “These people won’t even answer the questions!”

The corruption is INSANE.

BREAKING: The SEC has reportedly eliminated the Pattern Day Trader rule, replacing it with a new intraday margin system.

The requirement to maintain a $25,000 balance to engage in day trading is being scrapped.

[🇺🇸 Mike Davis 🇺🇸 @mrddmia]

You know the real reason why Democrats are calling for Eric Swalwell to drop out of the California governor’s race?

They know Republicans could win, with Democrats splitting their votes.

How do we know?

Democrats aren’t calling for Swalwell to resign from his House seat.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

🇺🇸🇺🇸 Welcome home! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

🚨 LMFAO! The left is now FURIOUS that SecWar Pete Hegseth said the US military rule is "we leave no MAN behind"

Lawrence O'Donnell: "That could have been a WOMAN they were trying to rescue!!"

You gotta be kidding me 🤡🤡

[Secretary Sean Duffy @SecDuffy]

At @USDOT, we’re all about making travel FAMILY FRIENDLY again.

Thank you @United for understanding that we want it to be easier when flying with our kids 🙌

We will keep pushing to make transportation even better for American families - whether by bus, train, or plane 🇺🇸

[United Airlines @united]

The entire row is alllllll yours.

Welcome to United Relax Row, three adjacent United Economy seats with adjustable leg rests that can each be raised or lowered to create a cozy lie-flat space for stretching out...

You'll also get a mattress pad, blanket and two pillows. If you’re traveling with kids, a plushie too! United Relax Row will be available starting next year on more than 200 of our 787s and 777s, each with up to 12 of these brand-new rows.

This is incredibly generous.

TSA agents across the country are relying on food pantries and community donations just to get by.

I remain the lone Dem to vote with my Republican colleagues to fully fund DHS and get people paid.

It should never come to this point.

[Ben Cather @bencather]

As an airline pilot. DHS shutdown is negatively affecting my life: TSA lines, broken Global Entry, 10+ hour delays, furious passengers, and way too much time away from my family. Congress — stop holding the entire airline industry hostage. Fund Homeland Security and open the government NOW. Enough. #EndTheDHSSShutdown @SenAlexPadilla @SenAdamSchiff @repdarrellissa

[Mike Netter @nettermike]

California Democrats have cooked up a new “Property Transfer Tax” that would charge homeowners 5-6% on every home sale — based on the sale price, not your equity.
That means if your home is worth $700,000 to $1 million — which is common in California — you could get hit with a tax bill of $42,000 to $60,000 just for selling your home!
That’s right: after years of paying your mortgage, property taxes, insurance, and upkeep, Sacramento politicians want to grab tens of thousands more when you sell.

Everyone wants me to rip on TrumpRx. Reality is, it’s saving patients money on IVF and a few other drugs. A lot of money.

IMO, anything that saves patients money is a win.

And they truly do have some great people that are making smart moves. You just don’t know their names. Chris Klomp. Mark Atalla, Abe Sutton and so many more.

When you talk to them, and see the work they put in, it’s obvious they are focused on trying to do the right thing for patients.

Don’t forget they didn’t give the insurance industry a price increase they wanted, and those stock prices got crushed.

TrumpRx is just getting started. @costplusdrugs is just getting started.

[ThePersistence @ScottPresler]

When the SAVE America Act is passed, registered voters will NOT have to re-register.

Non-citizens will be removed through the SAVE system.

So, when Chuck Schumer says that millions will be removed, is he saying millions of illegal aliens are registered to vote?

👉Chuck Schumer said the quiet part out loud👈
