Is it an excessive cost to get two rooms for one holiday for you and your partner? Or is it a vibe to be able to have your own giant marshmallow bed? But what about snuggling and canoodlin?! We love a bit of pillow talk tbh. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Portfolio Manager Shane Hurst discusses how AI and data growth are among strong thematic drivers for infrastructure and utilities stocks, which continue to effectively pass through stubborn inflation and look attractively valued.
What if I told you we already have the raw materials for a new party without having to go through the insurmountable process of getting a new party line on the ballot? I'm joined today by Andy Roth, president of the State Freedom Caucus Network, who paints a vivid description of how the Freedom Caucuses are serving as a branded movement to upend the uniparty in what should be red states. Liberal Republicans are now retiring because Freedom Caucus members have made their grift feel so miserable. Andy's only regret is that he didn't do this earlier. The key is that the members are all principles and focused on issues, not personality and drama. You can have a big tent for various issues, but you need a core that is not tainted by foreign influence or grifting personalities. Separately, I discuss how to win on abortion and how Florida polling proves the point. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Michael suggested an introduction between Vince Chan and a career individual seeking advice. The conversation concluded with Vince Chan discussing the significant changes brought about by the current global crisis, emphasizing the need to adapt to these unprecedented changes. Emphasizing Individual Control and Learning Amidst Covid-19 Vince Chan emphasized the importance of individuals taking control of their own change, rather than being forced to adapt to changes imposed by others. He highlighted the need for continuous learning, especially in the areas of digital and human-centric skills. However, he also pointed out that many education technology platforms merely recycle existing content without focusing on skills such as career development, navigation, and reinvention. Michael D. Levitt agreed with Vince Chan's points, noting the traumatic impacts of forced changes like lockdowns and border closures due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Embracing Change and Control in Career and Life Michael D.

People of faith who have pro-actively built bridges with those from other religions say their work is the most difficult it's ever been. Since the Hamas attack of October 7th 2023 and the conflict in Gaza, previously friendly relations between British Jews and Muslims have been strained. Separately, the British government has withdrawn funding from one national network. Interfaith work can span gatherings in places of worship, sharing bagels and samosas to women's discussion groups, debates and shared charity work.Giles Fraser asks if this effort is in crisis? And with many feeling disillusioned, is interfaith work worth saving?Joining Giles to share their experiences and discuss is Rabbi Debbie Young-Somers, Dr Ed Kessler from the Woolf Institute, Julie Siddiqi and Professor Harriet Baber from the University of San Diego. Presenter: Giles Fraser Editor: Dan Tierney Producers: Rebecca Maxted and Peter Everett Assistant Producer: Ruth Purser
* Scientists Warm Up to Idea on Cooling Down the Earth Solar geoengineering projects that involve deflecting the sun's rays get a second look - Arden Dier, Newser.com * Separately, a team from Australia's Southern Cross University has tested how clouds respond to aerosols sprayed from a ship, though the results haven't been released. * Buying Time - Salting the Clouds to Cool an Overheating Earth - If it works, the next stage would be to aim at the heavens and try to change the composition of clouds above the Earth's oceans. * Universities, foundations, private investors and the federal government have started to fund a variety of efforts, from sucking carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere. * Although the Biden administration is funding research into different climate interventions, including marine cloud brightening, the White House distanced itself from the California study. sending a statement to The New York Times that read: 'The US government is not involved in the Solar Radiation Modification (SRM) experiment taking place in Alameda, CA, or anywhere else. * In 2020, Congress directed the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to study solar radiation modification. * 4.8 magnitude earthquake rattles NYC and beyond! * Can Solar Geoengineering Be Used as a Weapon? * When The CIA Considered Weaponizing Lightning - David Hambling, Forbes, Sep 21, 2020. * New York Times admits the truth about COVID school closures and the long-term harms of fear-based decision-making - Chris Enloe, TheBlaze.com * Four years after politicians shut down schools, the NYT published a new analysis admitting there is "broad acknowledgment among many public health and education experts" that school closures significantly harmed children despite not stopping the spread of COVID-19. The kicker is that politicians subjected students to these harms despite a clear lack of evidence proving that school closures slowed the spread of COVID-19.

With the first of two 96-bed blocks to be opened at UHL early next year, Minister Donnelly claims the new beds in Ennis will offset capacity issues for the time being.

MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN BY BRINGING BACK THE CHRISTIAN DOCTRINE OF EARLY AMERICA: GEORGE WHITEFIELD
THE MAIN THRUST OF THIS MESSAGE PROVES BEYOND A SHADOW OF A DOUBT THAT THE HORIZONTAL(THAT IS, THE FATE OF AMERICA) IS INEXTRICABLY TIED TO THE VERTICAL(WHICH CHURCH IS DOMINANT IN AMERICA). SOME OF THE QUESTIONS WE BEGIN TO ANSWER ARE: CAN RELIGION AND PUBLIC LIBERTY SUBSIST SEPARATELY, THAT IS, DO THEY RISE AND FALL TOGETHER? AS AMERICANS, HOW ARE WE CREATED EQUAL HORIZONTALLY SPEAKING AS OPPOSED HOW ARE WE CREATED EQUAL VERTICALLY SPEAKING? DOES GOD BELIEVE IN NATIONS OR A ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT? HOW IS THE CORRECT FUNCTION OF THE LAW VERTICALLY SPEAKING DETERMINE THE SUCCESS OF AMERICA HORIZONTALLY SPEAKING-IN OTHER WORDS, IF WE THINK OF THE CHURCH AS THE SUN AND AMERICA AS THE MOON, THEN AMERICA'S MORAL MELTDOWN IS SIMPLY A REFLECTION OF THE FALSE DOCTRINE OF THE DOMINANT CHURCH IN AMERICA. SAMUEL ADAMS, 2ND COUSIN TO JOHN ADAM'S WRITES: “It is in the interest of tyrants to reduce the people to ignorance and vice. For they cannot live in any country where virtue and knowledge prevail. The RELIGION and PUBLIC LIBERTY of a people are intimately connected; their interests are interwoven, they CANNOT subsist SEPARATELY; and THEREFORE they RISE and FALL together. For this reason, it is always observable, that those who are combin'd to DESTROY the people's LIBERTIES, PRACTICE every ART to POISON their MORALS” AT THE TIME OF SAMUEL ADAMS WHEN OUR DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE AND CONSTITUTION WERE WRITTEN, THE REFORMATION DOCTRINE WAS DOMINANT(BONDAGE OF THE WILL DOCTRINE AS OPPOSED TO THE FREEWILL DOCTRINE THAT IS DOMINANT IN AMERICA TODAY).
We're at the point in Xbox's lifespan where the sensitivity is at an all time high. By that, we mean that the reaction to certain pieces of news is heightened considerably and is leading to even a singular comment spiraling into chaos. That's just what happened this week when, once again, we hear how Xbox is struggling. This time, it hails from the EU region where Christopher Dring states that a major game publisher questions the support of the platform in general. Naturally, this has been spun and applies to every conceivable developer under the sun. The Dukes approach this from two angles. For starters, how can Xbox escape the rumor mill and begin controlling the narrative? Is there something they can do to wipe away the doubt that gives legs to simple murmuring? Secondly, if true, what does this mean for Xbox? Separately, comments from Phil Spencer have indicated that extra money could be sought out in other areas of the industry. From Windows Central claiming an Xbox handheld prototype is in the works and Phil Spencer's recent interview signaling an infatuation with the Xbox handheld idea, it seems that their hardware push is far from over. Phil also spoke about bringing digital storefront like Epic Games Store and Itch.io to Xbox. Is the long term vision and all encompassing box full of all your games from all platforms? As always, it's never a sure bet with Xbox, but the Dukes do their digging nonetheless.

To lead meaningful and effective lives, we need to make sense of truths that appear to contradict each other, and that's what this 6-part series of podcasts is all about. Each episode in the series seeks to improve our relationship and life skills by helping us find “the middle way,” or the balance between two truths that appear contradictory but actually aren't. So, in this episode, Roy discusses SELFISH and UNSELFISH. Separately, they are both true—we need to value our needs, but we also need to consider others—but together they seem contradictory, or at least it looks that way. But listen in and you will learn the critical life skill of finding the balance between the two. You will learn… …why unselfishness comes back to bite you; …that narcissists and empaths are basically the same person and equally dysfunctional; …why compromise is not a value of healthy relationships; …how to shift a win/lose dynamic to a win/win dynamic; …and much more!

Intentional wrongdoing by our government has surfaced and is revealing itself to the American public. When does the public say, "Hey wait a minute. This is wrong. This must stop!" Biden commits treason again and violates his oath of office! He flew 300,000+ "ILLEGAL" migrants into the United States, flying over the razor wire at the border! This is TREASON! This alone should trigger immediate impeachment proceedings! This is another example of 'deep state' diversion, deflection and distraction. Separately, former U.S. Representative Liz Cheney committed treason and a breached of her fiduciary duty in deleting January 6 hearing testimony. This deleted testimony was evidence that would have cleared Donald Trump from alleged wrongdoing, showing he did not do what he was accused of. Evidence shows Nancy Pelosi knew days before the January 6 'event' that Kash Patel and President Trump were offering to mobilize 30,000 troops to the Capital. Intelligence showed a potential protest at the Capital steps was eminent. Pelosi ignored Trump's offer. Louisiana Congressman Clay Higgins reports that "illegals" being flown into the USA will insure a 50-60 member increase of Democrats in Congress, all will be a consequence of the new census data pending. Elected officials and bureaucrats have misused U.S. funds. Our benevolence abroad has morphed into greed, at the expense of American citizens at home.Are We Ignorant Or Stupid ~ Do We Care?Gene Valentino on TNT State of the NationORIGINAL MEDIA SOURCE(S):Originally Recorded on March 11, 2024America Beyond the Noise: Season 5, Episode 517 Join the Conversation: https://GeneValentino.com WMXI Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/NewsRadio981 More WMXI Interviews: https://genevalentino.com/wmxi-interviews/ More GrassRoots TruthCast Episodes: https://genevalentino.com/grassroots-truthcast-with-gene-valentino/ More Broadcasts with Gene as the Guest: https://genevalentino.com/america-beyond-the-noise/ More About Gene Valentino: https://genevalentino.com/about-gene-valentino/

But listen in and you will learn the critical life skill of finding the balance between the two. You will learn… …why relationships are often co-dependent and dysfunctional; …the “equation” for creating healthy, supportive relationships; …how the dark sides of compassion and responsibility often manifest; …the process of strengthening your “heart” or your “hammer”; …and much more.

Ask A Question: saythatpodcast@gmail.com thebridgechicago.tumblr.com/ask (Anonymous) Intro and a Sunday school smokebomb throwing emergency (00:00-19:09) I have struggled with anxiety and depression. I am generally doing better. But, sometimes I feel those old habits starting to creep up. How do I respond when that happens? (19:21-29:50) My non-Christian or ex-Christian friends have a big problem with the idea of sin. In the sense that the idea there is something fundamentally evil about them has been used to make them feel bad. I kind of see their point honestly. Is there a way to think of sin without all the guilt and judgment? (29:54-45:12) The part in Matthew 4 where Jesus is tempted in the desert is weird to me. Why is there only one time the devil tries to tempt him, or even talk to him? It feels like this weird little side story that comes up once a year during lent. Am I missing something? (45:16-58:00) Closing Song: I Need Thee Every Hour (Lee Younger)

*) Six children die of malnutrition as Gaza death toll nears 30,000 Six children have succumbed to malnutrition in Israeli-blockaded Gaza, Palestinian officials have reported. The overall toll for Palestinians in the nearly five-month Israeli war has exceeded 30,000. Officials revealed that two children died at Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City due to "dehydration and malnutrition," prompting urgent calls for international intervention. Separately, Kamal Adwan Hospital reported four infant deaths, with seven others in critical condition. *) Israeli police warn curbing access to Al Aqsa Mosque in Ramadan may fuel tensions Israeli police have issued a warning regarding potential tensions in occupied East Jerusalem if restrictions on Palestinian entry to Al Aqsa Mosque during Ramadan are imposed. The caution comes as Benjamin Netanyahu's extremist minister Itamar Ben-Gvir advocated limiting access to Islam's third-holiest site, proposing a ban on occupied West Bank residents and allowing only Palestinian citizens of Israel aged 70 and above. Unnamed senior police officials, as reported by Israeli media, stated that the decision is anticipated in the upcoming weekend. *) Fuel shortage shuts down last functioning hospital in northern Gaza The only functioning hospital in northern Gaza has been forced to cease operations due to a critical shortage of fuel. The Gaza-based Health Ministry issued a statement, underscoring the gravity of the situation as the Kamal Adwan Hospital grapples with an inability to secure the necessary fuel to run its generators. This abrupt halt in services leaves the local population without access to essential healthcare, posing significant challenges to the well-being of the community in the affected region. *) Australia spy chief drops 'traitor' bombshell on unnamed politician Australia's spy chief Mike Burgess has made a sensational public accusation. Burgess alleged that a former Australian politician was recruited by a foreign spy agency and "sold out" the country to a foreign power. While Burgess did not disclose the identity of the politician or the foreign power involved, citing national security concerns, his statement has sparked outrage and demands for transparency from the government. However, the Australian government has so far remained tight-lipped on the matter. *) Apple drops electric car plans while Tesla aims to ship Roadsters next year Apple has reportedly abandoned its plans to build its own car. The decision comes after nearly a decade of work on the project, codenamed "Project Titan," which involved a team of nearly 2,000 employees. Project Titan initially aimed to develop a fully autonomous vehicle, highlighting Apple's ambitions in the self-driving car space. However, the project faced challenges and setbacks, and the company ultimately decided to shift its focus to other areas. While Apple exits the scene, Tesla remains a major player, with CEO Elon Musk recently announcing plans to begin deliveries of the company's Roadster electric sports car next year.

Following weeks of rumors and speculation which led to multiple emergency Defining Dukes and even a business update event for Xbox, we finally have all the answers we desired. The games leaving Xbox are Hi Fi Rush, Pentiment, Sea Of Theives, and Grounded, two of which were unveiled at a Nintendo Direct, and their arrivals are imminent. Separately, PlayStation has made several illuminating comments themselves such as discussing a more aggressive PC strategy and potentially digging into other platforms. While there's no doubt that Xbox will be the first to commit in a major way to multi-platform, the Dukes are left wondering how long the walled gardens will remain as these business demand more. With that in mind, we discuss how much is enough for these companies and the ominous truth being the "when everyone plays, we all win" strategy that could play out in the next 10-20 years. Plus, a deep dive on Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth, inquiries answered on Xbox's sidestepping of physical games, a rumored Mandalorian game, and so much more in a very normal episode of Defining Duke.

Source: theepochtimes.com Biden Admin Reportedly Set To Greenlight Rule Change That Could Spike Gas Prices — But Not Until After The Election The Biden administration is expected to ease seasonal restrictions on ethanol-gasoline blends but has delayed the change until after the 2024 election to avoid a price spike, according to Reuters. The rule change stems from a 2022 request from the governors of Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, South Dakota and Wisconsin to allow the sale of gasoline with 15% ethanol year-round, known as E15 gasoline, lifting current seasonal restrictions that aim to reduce smog in the summer months, according to Reuters. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) had originally set an effective date of April 28, 2024, for the changes when the agency sent the proposal to the White House in December, but that is now expected to be pushed back to 2025. Top oil refiners, including HF Sinclair Corp. and Philips 66, have warned against the change, saying that it would complicate fuel supply logistics and increase the risk of area shortages, possibly raising prices, according to Reuters. The ethanol industry has lobbied for the changes, saying that the environmental concerns are exaggerated.

“ How do I walk the fine line between being independent and self-reliant in recovery—a positive—and opting to go it alone, which can be a negative? Separately, I'd love to know more about managing an injury in the context of a chronic condition. For example, I have epilepsy but seizure meds are not great for bone density. Flip side, reducing meds is good for bones but bad for the brain. Doctors can offer guidance but making the decisions is ours alone.” In the seventh season of The Injured Athletes Club podcast, mental skills coach Carrie Jackson answers a question every other week about the mental side of overcoming injuries. This week, Coach Carrie answers Jennifer's questions about navigating the line between independence and self-isolation, as well as how to deal with recovery and chronic conditions. Coach Carrie emphasizes contemplating what drives the need to go alone, and how to walk the fine line between independence and isolation, knowing you may step over and need to correct at some moments. She also discusses the fact that there aren't singularly right or wrong decisions; there are simply decisions made to the best of your ability, given the information at hand. Above all, she stresses the importance of emotional support during tough times.

A 2023 University of Maryland study found that almost one out of every 10 Americans lack a government issued photo identification card. The U.S. Department of Labor is using $1.6 billion from the American Rescue Plan Act to address digital identity verification at the state level, including $600 million to modernize vulnerable state IT systems and $380 million for fraud prevention. Separately, the Inflation Reduction Act included $500 million to establish Regional Technology Innovation Hubs. Out of this program, the state of West Virginia in collaboration with a consortium of Fortune 500 companies, academic institutions, extraordinary entrepreneurs and venture investors were awarded a planning grant to align existing and new capabilities for identity and authentication efforts.

The comprehensive study reveals key insights into the booming AAM market in the United States and positions West Virginia as a strategic player in this transformative industry. Forecasted to contribute $115 billion to the U.S. economy by 2035 and create over 280,000 high-paying jobs, AAM presents a significant opportunity for West Virginia's economic and societal growth.

Are you wondering if filing separately might be the right choice for your tax situation? In this episode, Mike Jesowshek discusses various aspects of 'married filing separately' tax status, explaining when this filing status could be advantageous. He primarily mentions scenarios such as a high medical expense situation for one spouse, significant student loan debt based on income for one spouse, or a tax lien on one spouse. Though in general, he believes 'married filing jointly' often provides better tax benefits. Mike also highlights the potential downsides to filing separately, such as higher tax rates and the loss of certain tax benefits.[00:00 - 04:13] Married Filing Separately: When does it make sense?Mike emphasizes that advising clients to file separately is rare, but they want to educate on when it does make sense.Key reasons for choosing to file separately:A complete separation of tax liabilityHigh medical expensesIncome-based student loan payments[04:13 - 06:29] The Downsides of Married Filing SeparatelyA key downside highlighted is higher tax rates for those who file separately, potentially leading to a higher overall tax liability.The loss of several tax benefits when filing separately is also possible, including education tax credits, child independent care tax credits, earned income tax credits, and deductions for student loan interest and certain retirement savings contributions.Mike also touches on the potential for double taxation in community property states when filing separately, adding complexity and possibly higher tax preparation fees.[06:29 - 09:10] The Process of Filing SeparatelyEach spouse must complete their own tax returns, including their individual income, deductions, and tax bills.When filing separately, couples must decide who will claim any dependents.If one spouse opts for itemized deductions, the other must also do the same, which can be a disadvantage.Mike shares some example situations where filing separately makes more sense.[09:10 - 15:23] Recap and Final ThoughtsQuotes:"When you file separately, you're separating yourself from that spouse. So the spouse that doesn't have the tax debt doesn't get their refund necessarily taken away." - Mike Jesowshek, CPA"Most taxpayers we talk to are far better off filing jointly instead of separately. But there are some specific cases where separately makes more sense." - Mike Jesowshek, CPA"When you file separately, it doesn't mean that you're having marital issues... We just want to look at what the tax benefit is." - Mike Jesowshek, CPA______Podcast Host: Mike Jesowshek, CPA - Founder and Host of Small Business Tax Savings PodcastJoin TaxElm: https://taxelm.com/IncSight Packages (Full-Service): https://incsight.net/pricing/Book an Initial Consultation (IncSight): https://app.simplymeet.me/o/incsight/sale-------Podcast Website: https://www.TaxSavingsPodcast.comFacebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/taxsavings/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TaxSavings

Why should you pay taxes? Probably not for the programs outlined in Rand Paul's annual “Festivus” report. Examples: Your government used millions of your hard-earned $$ to study whether methamphetamine disrupts the sleep habits of monkeys and to funnel $$ to Russian scientists to research the effects of snipping the brain stems of cats, then forcing them to exercise on treadmills. The animal abuse alone is outrageous. More broadly, we deserve a refund. Jacki proposed (to the Speaker of the House and others) that anyone making less than 50K should be exempt from federal tax, if for no other reason than to make working more attractive than welfare. (Separately, what would we do without Rand Paul?) - - - - - Daniel Turner of Power the Future tells the true story of how fossil fuels prolonged his father's life after a heart attack. He also details how they have almost certainly saved your life. - - - - - Texas weather is sure to bring more emergency conservation alerts from state regulators since Texas is the only state with its own grid and has made massive mistakes, transitioning from fossil fuels and nuclear that produce over 90% of the time to renewables that produce only 30% of the time – on a good day - causing life-threatening energy scarcity. - - - - - We share focus group results which show that Americans are supportive of fossil fuels, prefer ours to petro-state dictators, and believe energy is far too expensive, yet at the same time do not know that renewables mean sky-high costs and dependence on hostile foreign supply chains. - - - - - The Osage tribe just succeeded in getting a federal judge to rule that 84 wind energy turbines run by a foreign company (so much wind energy is) in Oklahoma must come down because they infringe on the tribe's sovereignty and destroy their sacred birds, such as protected eagle species. This is one of many stories in a tide now turning against wind energy.
In today's episode, I recount my extraordinary journey of navigating both tremendous success and profound setbacks. I discuss the life-changing insight gained from a trip to Africa, where happiness was found in simplicity, reshaping my understanding of true wealth. Separately, I reflect on my personal and professional path, including the experience of building and losing a $100 million fortune. Throughout, I emphasize how setbacks often reveal themselves as hidden blessings of protection and promotion, shaping our resilience and perspective.

Mayorkas made the remarks when meeting privately with agents in Eagle Pass, Texas, according to three Border Patrol sources who were in the room and heard the remarks themselves. The conversation happened during the muster for agents in the busy border area. Fox is told Mayorkas was asked directly about comments he made on "Special Report" last week when he was asked by anchor Bret Baier about reporting that over 70% of migrants are released into the U.S. each day. "It would not surprise me at all. I know the data," Mayorkas said. "And I will tell you that when individuals are released, they are released into immigration enforcement proceedings. They are on alternatives to detention. And we have returned or removed a record number of individuals. We are enforcing the laws that Congress has passed. " Fox is told that on Monday agents pushed him on those remarks, saying that the number is even higher than 70%, and then Mayorkas acknowledged a release rate of "above 85%." Mayorkas had also said last week on "Special Report" that "well more than a million" migrants are released into the U.S. annually, and argued repeatedly that it is up to Congress to provide more funding and immigration reform to fix what he has called a "broken" system. He said that the agency is limited in detention capacity by funding provided by Congress. "When somebody enters the country, we place them in immigration enforcement proceedings pursuant to immigration law, and if their claim for relief, their claim to remain in the United States succeeds, then by law they are able to stay here," he said. The remarks come just two days before the House Homeland Security Committee holds its first impeachment hearing, featuring multiple state attorneys general who will testify about the impact the crisis has had on their states. The hearing on Wednesday marks the first impeachment hearing after a year of investigations and reports by the House Homeland Security Committee which looked at the handling of the nearly three-year migrant crisis. Republicans have blamed the historic migrant crisis, which saw 302,000 migrant encounters last month alone on Biden-era policies, including the releases of migrants into the interior -- dubbed "catch-and-release." They have pointed to the broad use of parole, as well as narrowed ICE enforcement and the stopping of wall construction. The administration says it is dealing with a hemisphere-wide crisis and needs more funding and comprehensive immigration reform from Congress. It has claimed it is expanding "lawful migration pathways" and increasing consequences for illegal entry, but can only do so much with a "broken" system. Mayorkas and other DHS officials have said that it has removed or returned more than 470,000 people since May, which is more than in the entirety of FY 2019. At a press availability later on Monday, Mayorkas highlighted the removals and returns, saying it is more than in any other five-month period in the last 10 years. "In fact, the majority of all Southwest Border migrant encounters throughout this Administration have been removed, returned, or expelled – the majority of them," he said. "We are doing everything we can, within a broken system, to incentivize noncitizens to use lawful pathways, to impose consequences on those who do not, and to reduce irregular migration." The White House has also requested $14 billion in border funding from Congress as part of its emergency supplemental spending proposal, but that is being held up as Republicans demand significantly more restrictions on the release of migrants into the interior. Mayorkas said last week that it was that broken system, not administration policy, which was the magnet drawing migrants to the border. Separately, the administration last week announced a lawsuit against the state of Texas after Gov. Greg Abbott signed a law that allows state and local law enforcement to arrest illegal immigrants. The lawsuit claims that the law is unconstitutional and interferes with the federal government's authority on immigration matters. https://thenationalpulse.com/2024/01/09/listen-hot-mic-catches-journos-joking-about-trump-being-assassinated-like-jfk-take-a-convertible/ Hot Mic Catches Journos Joking About Trump Being Assassinated Microphones caught journalists waiting for Donald Trump to arrive at the E. Barrett Prettyman Courthouse in Washington D.C. joking about the president being assassinated on Tuesday. Trump is attending the D.C. Court of Appeals to hear the opening oral arguments in his appeal against Jack Smith’s efforts to prosecute him over January 6th, and journalists gathered outside the courthouse in substantial numbers ahead of his arrival. Two of them could be heard in live feeds joking about having a “good shot” at the America First leader when he arrived, particularly if he showed up driving a convertible like the one the late President John F. Kennedy was riding in when he was shot in the head in 1963: https://twitter.com/i/status/1744738203616399859 - Play Video If you couldn’t hear what they said: First Journalist: You know what the worst part is? Even if he has his window open and he’s hanging out of it, he will be on the other side of the street. Second Journalist: I mean, if he’s driving, we’ve got a good shot! First Journalist: Yeah, if he’s driving with the front window open? Second Journalist: Yeah, or if it’s a convertible? First Journalist: Yeah. I wasn’t thinking about that. First Journalist: Like JFK? Second Journalist: (laughs) Trump’s hearing is being overseen by a panel of two Joe Biden-appointed judges and one George H. W. Bush-appointed judge. His lawyers argue the Smith prosecution amounts to double jeopardy, as Trump was already tried and acquitted over January 6th by the U.S. Senate, and that Smith is also violating the principle of presidential immunity for official acts. https://www.dailyfetched.com/man-finds-iphone-that-fell-out-alaska-air-1282-perfectly-intact/ Man Discovers iPhone That Fell Out of Alaska Air 1282: ‘Perfectly Intact’ A Portland man recovered a cell phone, which is believed to be owned by a passenger of Alaska Airlines flight 1282 after it was sucked out of the plane when the door plug blew open. Writing on X, the man, Sean Bates, posted a photo of the phone: “Found an iPhone on the side of the road,” he wrote. “Still in airplane mode with half a battery and open to a baggage claim for #AlaskaAirlines ASA1282.” Bates found the phone when he was out walking before posting it on social media, which also showed what appeared to be an Alaska Airlines baggage flight receipt. The image showed the baggage receipt for the traveler and a piece of a charger still stuck into the phone’s charging port. Bates claimed the phone was “perfectly” intact with “no scratches on it.” In a TikTok video, Bates said he was walking in Portland on Sunday after the National Transportation Safety Bureau asked him to report any debris or plane parts. The door for the plane was also recovered after another Portland resident named Bob found the plug in his yard, “Thank you, Bob,” NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy said at a news conference. Bates found one of the two cell phones that were recovered. Last week, Alaska Airlines flight was forced to make an emergency landing after its passenger window blew open. The Boeing 737 Max was heading to Ontario, California w, when a large window busted open, causing severe depressurization. Alaska Airlines CEO Ben Minicucci said in a statement: “Following tonight’s event on Flight 1282, we have decided to take the precautionary step of temporarily grounding our fleet of 65 Boeing 737-9 aircraft.” “My heart goes out to those who were on this flight – I am so sorry for what you experienced.” Video footage showed the plane in the air with the window open as oxygen masks angled over passengers’ seats. https://www.dailyfetched.com/rebel-news-reporter-arrested-by-trudeaus-police-for-asking-a-question/ Rebel News Reporter Arrested by Trudeau’s Police for Asking a Question David Menzies, the reporter for Canada’s conservative Rebel News Network, was arrested on Monday for asking Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland a question. A police officer reportedly accused Menzies of assault despite the reporter not making any physical contact with Freeland. The video of the incident, posted by Rebel News chief Ezra Levant, showed Enzies asking Freeland about Canada’s refusal to label Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IGRC) as a terrorist organization. The video shows Menzies keeping pace with the Deputy Prime Minister as he walks down the street when a Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) stands in his way and begins claiming Menzies “assaulted” him. Menzies does not appear to notice the RCMP officer because his attention is on Freeland. The officer then appears to set a “pick,” basketball-style, as a pretext for accusing Menzies of assaulting him. However, there is no evidence that Menzies intended to do so. “You’re under arrest for assault,” said the officer. The officer moved Menzies towards a vehicle, identifying himself as police and saying he was under arrest for assault. Menzies said the officer was the person who blocked his way. “I was just scrumming Chrystia Freeland,” he said. The officer acknowledged Menzies was being arrested for assaulting a police officer. In response, he accused him of assaulting him three years ago. Another RCMP officer said Menzies was being arrested because of his actions. This is because he was almost pushing people over. “That was a little bit aggressive for what was happening,” said the officer before the arrest occurred. True North managing editor Andrew Lawton said Menzies was later released. “Have confirmed that Menzies was released without charges,” said Lawton.
