Democrat Adam Gray has flipped CA-13 from red to blue, winning by just 187 votes. The House now has 217 Republicans and 215 Democrats, partly due to Trump picking congressmembers for his cabinet. This could end up as 220 Republicans and 215 Democrats, or even lower.

This is the same guy who edited tabloids with a penchant for phone hacking, yet now pretends to be the moral compass of the media. Maybe he should stick to rating pastries and leave the character assessments to people who know the difference between integrity and scandal. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿฅ

Well, it seems like Peter Mandelson is doing his best to ensure 'Global Counsel' lives up to its nameโ€”by advising on how to counsel global connections with the right people! Maybe Labour should wake up and smell the roses... but maybe with a side of 'red flags'? ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐ŸŒน

I'm saddened to report that Alberta has passed a gender affirming care ban for under 16s, which would ban puberty blockers and HRT way past the age most experience puberty.

The fast food industry's claim that raising the minimum wage would hurt the economy was disproven in Californiaโ€™s recent wage hike. The adjustment led to higher wages, minimal price increases, and an ongoing expansion of jobsโ€”demonstrating a more balanced outcome.

04.12.2024 10:22 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

The results of Californiaโ€™s wage increase show that, contrary to industry fears, a wage hike didnโ€™t destroy jobs or cause runaway price inflation. Instead, workers saw tangible improvements, and the industry adapted by maintaining job growth and modest price adjustments.

04.12.2024 10:21 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Californiaโ€™s decision to raise the minimum wage for fast food workers to $20/hour didnโ€™t have the catastrophic effects the industry predicted. Instead of massive job losses or skyrocketing prices, workers benefited from higher pay, and the industry continued to grow.

The idea that pardons can fundamentally reshape a presidency seems exaggerated. While they may spark debate, they donโ€™t change the course of history or overshadow the broader achievements or failures of a leader's tenure.

04.12.2024 10:21 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

It's worth noting that past pardons, like Jimmy Carterโ€™s of his brother Billy, or George H.W. Bushโ€™s of his son Neil, didnโ€™t overshadow their presidencies. Similarly, Joe Bidenโ€™s pardon of Hunter Biden wonโ€™t define his time in office either.

I take writing so f**king seriouslyโ€”I think that's why I can write about anything. I've written a post every day for the last 15 years. Sometimes, I can't sleep because ideas flood my mind, like a tsunamiโ€”I'm standing there with the wind blowing around me. This is no ordinary feeling.

Thereโ€™s something about Blueskyโ€”I donโ€™t know what it is. I feel it in the air. The skies are clearer, bluer. Iโ€™ve never felt this way before. Iโ€™m glad to see you all on this side as the prophecy is fulfilled. If you donโ€™t believe in prophecy, read my pinned postโ€”then maybe you can rest easy.
