Herschel Walker Clinches Georgia’s U.S. Senate Republican Primary

Report: Chuck Schumer Moving Quickly to ‘Force’ Gun Control Vote

Update:

The politics didn’t work for national Democrats, so:

Schumer says no gun control vote anytime soon: ‘Americans can cast their vote in November’

I don’t trust these jerks to do anything other than petty politics.

Gun control not the answer to mass shootings: Poll

There is no single answer. Part of the answer is better psychiatric care and evaluation of mentally struggling children in their mid to late teens. Part of the answer is better parenting. Part of the answer is turning off television and social media which bombard confused and vulnerable young folks with cockamamie ideas.

China Is Doing Biden’s Work for Him

“…As in Europe, where Vladimir Putin’s assault is uniting the region against him, so too in Asia is an aggressive Beijing entrenching American power…

…If President Joe Biden’s trip to Asia—marked as it was by his comments on the defense of Taiwan, announcements on a proposed new regional trade pact, and meetings with leaders who exhibit similar levels of concern about a rising China—has shown the persistence of American global power, it has also revealed something of equal importance: Beijing’s failure to translate economic might into political dominance, even in its own backyard.

Biden today concluded a summit of the leaders of the Quad—a security partnership including Australia, India, Japan, and the United States—who issued a joint statement chockablock with references to promoting democracy, a rules-based global order, and peaceful resolution of disputes. That came a day after Biden announced the formation of the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework, a partnership with 13 countries as diverse as South Korea, Vietnam, and New Zealand. Notably absent from all of this was China. Biden’s trip exhibited Washington’s continued ability to rally other nations behind its standard, and in initiatives overtly targeted against the region’s supposedly rising superpower.

The script wasn’t meant to read this way. As China grew in economic importance, its smaller neighbors would, the thinking went, inevitably and inexorably be drawn into its orbit, while U.S. power would correspondingly fade, ushered along by its own political divisions and percolating isolationism…”

And thoughts from Stephen Green:

“…Most sensible people watching Communist China’s rise predicted that its smaller neighbors — from whom China historically expected tribute and vassalage — would be drawn to the US as a counterbalance. More importantly, a counterbalance with no territorial ambitions or desire for tribute.

It took a concerted effort on the part of Barack Obama and his Administration to throw a monkey wrench into that process, and a brief show of American resolve from Donald Trump to get it underway again.

Joe Biden has yet to screw it up again, but don’t underestimate his ability to do so…”

Washington Dem socialist congressional candidate calls for breaking into empty homes

“…Rebecca Parson, a democratic socialist, also says the minimum wage should be $30/hour

Washington Democratic congressional candidate Rebecca Parson has a bold idea to get Congress to pass housing legislation: have a million people break into empty houses.

Parson, a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, is running to represent Washington’s 6th Congressional District. In a video ad, she outlined what she and her followers can do if she wins.

“Imagine I proposed a Housing for All Bill in Congress, Then imagine you, me, and a million of our friends took action and occupied empty houses nationwide. They couldn’t ignore us,” Parson says in the ad…”

Why Is the FDA Seizing Baby Formula During a Baby Formula Shortage? With trusted sellers shut down, parents are being driven to untested suppliers

“…Parental demand led to American mom-and-pop vendors selling European formula because the manufacturers wouldn’t make the effort. They even provided translated instructions. But the FDA in the past year has cracked down on these sellers. Without notice, thousands of families were left scrambling to find more formula. Parents who tried to purchase directly from Europe had hundreds of dollars of formula seized by U.S. customs agents. One parent reported that she had nearly $700 of formula destroyed at the border—in the middle of a national formula shortage.

The FDA’s actions have exacerbated the problem they were trying to solve. The agency cites concerns about storing and transporting powdered formula to avoid bacterial contamination or product deterioration. But by shutting down trusted vendors who had built a reputation on importing and selling high-quality products, the FDA drove desperate parents to untested sellers, creating the storage and handling concerns that caused the FDA to distrust European products. The difficulty finding preferred baby formula brands also increased the likelihood of inauthentic products and unscrupulous sellers taking advantage of parents in need…”

This is a standard government FUBAR. It is magnified and exacerbated by other government actions creating food shortages, supply chain problems terrible inflation and, of course, baby formula shortages.

It’s not just electricity. We’re heading for shortages of diesel, jet fuel and gasoline

“…Over the weekend, we looked at the alarming news about rolling blackouts that will be hitting multiple American states this summer and in future hot and cold seasons unless we manage to enhance our supply of electricity while modernizing and enhancing our ancient power grid. But electricity isn’t the only form of energy that will be failing to meet rising demands in the very near future. A recent set of reports from the Institute for Energy Research digs into the supply and demand figures for liquid fuels in the coming months and the news is not encouraging. The title of the report comes in the form of a worrisome question. Will there be enough diesel, jet fuel, and gasoline this summer?…”
