The New York Times should rescind their endorsement of Biden in 2020.
It is difficult to find an issue that more exemplifies the dysfunction of American government today than immigration.
That assertion is arguable, but we will stick with immigration for now.
Politico: CDC wants to be trusted.
Mandy Cohen wants to win back America’s trust.
Perhaps this article is incomplete or misrepresents Mandy Cohen. I hope so, because we need a CDC with integrity.
One would have to be incredibly naive or distracted to think that society is functioning properly. Very little of the federal government is operating in the best interests of the American people. On the local level, several cities have stopped enforcing laws and have gone quite feral.
I am voting for Vivek Ramaswamy for president because his wife works at The Ohio State University and he is from Cincinnati.
Is he qualified? Who cares?
Prior to reading any analysis, here’s my take on the Republican presidential debate:
USNews: DOT Changes Accessibility Rules
Pete Buttigieg and his Department of Transportation just made up new rules to make air travel more expensive and unpleasant for everyone. How can federal bureaucrats do this with no oversight or accountability?
“Because the truth is, we all know it: Discrimination still exists in America,” Mr. Biden told reporters in the Roosevelt Room.

This article provides some reasons I have voted for Trump, and will again.

When General Motors began outlining plans in 2020 to fully switch to electric vehicles, it didn’t account for one critical factor: Many of the battery minerals needed to fulfill its plans were still in the ground.
“I remember seeing a report from our raw-materials team at the time saying, ‘There is plenty of lithium out there. There is plenty of nickel’,” said Sham Kunjur, an industrial engineer now in charge of securing the raw materials for GM’s batteries. “We will buy them from the open market.”
GM executives soon came to discover how off the mark those projections were, and now Mr. Kunjur’s 40-person team is scouring the globe for these minerals.
“Why Magical Thinking isn’t Whimsical” or “No Shit, Sherlock” would also have been serviceable titles for this article.
