Those EVs Joe Biden and Democrats promise will transform the climate? That EV you drive and think you’re saving the planet with? They don’t get their power out of thin air; in fact, they draw heavily on burning coal in huge plants to charge up the lithium batteries. In other words, electric vehicles need fossil fuels. They just use them ahead of time rather than in the moment.(Snip)One intrepid YouTuber didn’t necessarily create his latest video blog to prove that point, but he does have fun with mods on cars and took his Tesla for a spin recently. At least if an 1,800 trip can be considered a spin.

A North Carolina mother read from a graphic novel found in her child’s seventh-grade classroom during an Oct. 12 school board meeting, according to video footage from the event. The mother alleges that the book “This Book Is Gay,” by Juno Dawson is available to seventh-grade students at a middle school in Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools. The book was allegedly found at Collingswood Middle School and allegedly on a recommended reading list at another school in the district. Before reading the graphic novel, the mother insisted children leave the room before she read a chapter titled “The Ins and Outs of Gay Sex.”(Snip)“It’s no wonder that 92 percent

Lisa Webb purposely sits with her back against the front of the Green Line train when she rides to her job at a north metro fast food restaurant from her home on St. Paul's East Side. From her perch, she's seen a woman stabbed near the train and passengers using drugs and smoking. Some she sees are mentally ill and need help. Webb, who must use transit because she doesn't own a car, minds her own business but admits she often feels afraid. "The cops," she said, "are barely around." Stories like Webb's have evolved into a widespread perception in recent years that riding the Green and Blue light rail

The Boeing Company is set to outsource to India hundreds of coveted white-collar American jobs, beginning this year, while making billions in profits from taxpayer-funded contracts with the Defense Department.(Snip)Hundreds more American jobs at Boeing are expected to be outsourced to India next year. The move comes as Boeing has laid off tens of thousands of employees and sent most of its high-paying American tech jobs to India. For years, as The Atlantic noted in 2019, Boeing has been importing $9-an-hour foreign H-1B visa workers to take coveted software engineering jobs at its American plants. The goal was to cut costs

One year after the Fed was rocked by a trading scandal which cost the jobs of three Fed henchmen, including Dallas and Boston Fed presidents, Kaplan and Rosengren, and Fed vice-chair Richard Clarida (who couldn't wait to be sacked for cause or otherwise just to get back to Pimco) after financial disclosures showed they had been trading extensively in individual stocks in 2020 during a period in which the Fed engaged in extraordinary market interventions as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, moments ago Atlanta Fed president Raphael Bostic joined the club of inglorious Fed traders when he revealed he had improperly disclosed financial transactions for the past five

The Adams administration has quietly tapped a City Council member’s wife and another top Bronx Democratic supporter to fill two, high-ranking, $177,000-a-year Parks Department jobs, The Post has learned. The Parks Department in August gave Jessenia Aponte, wife of Councilman Rafael Salamanca (D-Bronx), a huge promotion that comes with a $72,000-plus raise, naming her Bronx borough commissioner. In another under-the-radar move, the agency last month handed Anthony Perez, former executive director of the Bronx Democratic Party, the job of Manhattan borough commissioner.(Snip) “I just don’t get this hire,” said one city Democratic pol. “What experience does he have running parks–especially the ones

President Biden tried to generate some buzz for Democrats Saturday by making a head-scratching claim about tax credits for coffee machines during a flub-filled speech in Portland, Ore. Two days after new data showed consumer prices continuing to surge, Biden resolutely ignored the topic of inflation in a speech billed as “Remarks on Lowering Costs for American Families”—focusing instead on benefits tucked into his monster spending bill. “The Inflation Reduction Act has to do with your ability to get tax credits for buying—if you need a new coffee machine, a new washer, a new refrigerator,” Biden said.(Snip)Earlier in the speech, Biden appeared to blank

Stockton, Calif.—Stockton authorities said on Saturday an arrest has been made linked to the six murders in California. Stockton police chief Stanley McFadden, city manager Harry Black and Mayor Kevin Lincoln made the announcement in a joint press conference regarding the homicide series investigation. Wesley Brownlee, 43, was arrested around 2 a.m. Saturday, Chief McFadden said.(Snip)Earlier this month, authorities said the California serial killer seems to be "on a mission" throughout the fatal shooting of six men and the wounding of one woman dating back to 2021. Ballistics tests and video evidence linked the crimes in Stockton and Oakland, about 70 miles (110 kilometers) apart, police said.

Former FBI agent Timothy Thibault refused an interview requested by Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee over the politicization within his agency, saying he cannot speak on ongoing investigations. GOP lawmakers requested information from Mr. Thibault last month over the FBI’s approach to probing President Biden’s son, Hunter Biden.(Snip)The former agent’s conduct came under scrutiny by Republicans as over a dozen whistleblowers have come forth with allegations of political bias within the FBI. Mr. Thibault was accused of suppressing information that could benefit the investigation into Hunter Biden. Reps. Jim Jordan of Ohio, Mike Johnson of Louisiana and Darrell Issa of California, who originally sent the request,

Trevor Milton, the founder of electric truck maker Nikola, was convicted of fraud after being accused of bragging about nonexistent technology in an attempt to inflate his company’s stock price. “Trevor Milton is a con man,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Jordan Estes said. “He lied to investors to get their money, plain and simple.” On Friday, a federal jury in U.S. District Court in Manhattan found Milton guilty of defrauding investors by lying about the supposed technical achievements of Nikola, according to a report by the New York Times.(Snip)Milton, who owned 25 percent of Nikola shares, then went on a luxurious shopping spree after the stock market made him wealthy.

The Boston Children’s Hospital claims that puberty-blocking drugs are “completely reversible” despite the director of their gender clinic admitting they can cause infertility in a video obtained by Breitbart News. “Children and adolescents who are in puberty may choose to pause puberty using puberty blockers,” the Boston Children’s Hospital says on its website. It goes on to incorrectly claim that “These are temporary medicines that are completely reversible; they do not cause any permanent changes.” But Breitbart News recently obtained and released footage of Dr. Jeremi Carswell, the Director of the Boston Children’s Hospital Gender Multispeciality Service, admitting on camera that puberty-blocking drugs can sterilize children.

Lillington, N.C.—A Harnett County man who showed up for jury duty on Monday ended up behind bars after refusing to wear a mask in the courtroom. Judge Charles Gilchrist booked Gregory Hahn, 47, without bond after Hahn told the judge he wouldn’t wear a mask. Hahn was jailed for contempt of court. “There were signs saying no masks were required,” Hahn told WRAL News. “We all walked in.”(Snip)“You can go in any district courtroom without a mask, you can come into superior clerk court without a mask and the [district attorney’s] office without a mask, but with Judge Gilchrist he has a mandate that you must wear
