The free market lowers prices. Bureaucratic red tape raises them. My Fuel Choice and Deregulation Act does exactly what it says:

✅ Gives Americans more fuel options.
✅ Removes the EPA barriers blocking vehicle conversions and alternative fuels.

This lets competition drive down prices.

A new study has found that urban birds across Europe consistently perceive women as more threatening than men, fleeing at greater distances when approached by female observers.

In a large-scale investigation conducted in cities across five European countries (Czechia, France, Germany, Poland, and Spain), researchers measured the flight initiation distance (FID), the distance at which birds take flight when a human approaches, for 37 different bird species.

Even after standardizing variables such as clothing, height, and approach speed, birds allowed male researchers to get approximately one meter (about three feet) closer on average before fleeing compared to female researchers. This pattern held consistently across thousands of observations and all countries studied.

The reasons for this unexpected gender bias remain unclear. Scientists are investigating several possibilities, including subtle differences in human gait influenced by pelvic structure, variations in body odor or pheromones, or ultraviolet-reflective compounds in cosmetics and sunscreens that birds, which can see into the UV spectrum, might detect.

This discovery challenges assumptions in behavioral ecology and highlights that the gender of human observers is not neutral in wildlife studies. It underscores the importance of accounting for observer effects when studying animal behavior in urban environments.

This is the PERFECT example of why foreigners should not be allowed to run for office

Zul Mohammed just ran for Mayor of Carrollton, Texas. He’s from Pakistan

“No vet has made any sacrifice. I want to make that clear. I do not support the US military. No, I do not support the United States. I look down on both entities. I want to make that clear”

I can’t think of a better example of why only natural born citizens should be allowed to run for office

Also he is a Muslim, which further enforces the classic “I do not support the United States”

We need new election eligibility laws

[U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement @ICEgov]

Vidal George-Jimenz, of Honduras, just finished up a 2012 rape conviction sentence that followed his arrest by police in Portland on charges of sodomy, sexual abuse, sexual penetration and strangulation.

Unfortunately, due to sanctuary policies in Portland, officials refused to honor an ICE detainer, and he was released back into the community after serving his sentence.

ICE Portland Fugitive Operations had to find him in the community at-large. Officers arrested him May 21 at his residence.

The Most Important Emergency Kit Isn't in Your Closet

Every year, people spend hundreds of dollars on generators, emergency food, flashlights, and survival gear. But when communities are forced to evacuate, one of the biggest problems isn't food or water.

It's paperwork.

Insurance information.
Birth certificates.
Passports.
Medical records.
Contact lists.
Property documents.
Prescription information.
Pet records.

Having gone through a fire in my own home, one key lesson stands out: document everything. Take photos and videos of your valuables before you ever need them. If you're filing an insurance claim after a disaster, that documentation can make a tremendous difference.

Now, ask yourself a simple question:

If your home became inaccessible for the next 30 days due to a fire, could you prove who you are, access your finances, secure a temporary rental, and file an insurance claim?

One simple thing I do is keep scanned copies of my important documents on an old iPad that stays in my go bag with my emergency cash. It's not fancy. It's not expensive. But if I have to leave in a hurry, I know I still have access to the information I need.

Most preparedness isn't about having the perfect gear.
It's about having simple systems that work when life gets chaotic.

Most people spend years building a life and never spend 30 minutes organizing the documents needed to stay resilient during a crisis.

Preparedness is not about surviving the disaster.

It's about recovering from it.

Yeah, sure. There will be no "cuts".
Only an increase in taxes.
