It’s Different When They Do It

Uh oh, someone really, really wants him gone.

The White House and Justice Department (DOJ) reportedly agreed to hide President Joe Biden’s classified document scandal from the American people until it leaked to the press, despite their repeated claims of transparency.

Not only did the White House and DOJ try to obscure the scandal from public view, but they also refused to divulge that the second trove of classified documents were already unearthed at Biden’s home in Wilmington when CBS News first contacted the White House about the initial leak of classified documents apparently illegally stored at the Biden Penn Center, according to the Washington Post: “Early on, Biden’s attorneys and Justice Department investigators both thought they had a shared understanding about keeping the matter quiet,” the Post admitted, noting the Biden administration’s attempt to conceal revelations of the second trove of stashed documents.

Wind power production in Saskatchewan went into negative territory

Turns out there’s a new development out of the story that took place on Monday.

Justin Trudeau on Monday didn’t think much of Saskatchewan’s clean energy projects.

On that very day, characterized by fog throughout much of southern Saskatchewan (where the wind turbines are located), SaskPower’s total wind power generation fell to “-1 megawatt,” as in negative one megawatt, according to the Crown corporation’s Where Does Your Power Come From web page. This is the lowest number Pipeline Online has seen since the page went online in September, 2022. It’s also an average throughout the entire day, not just at a particular moment.

According to SaskPower, “The turbines were iced up and unable to produce. The -1 megawatt was load to service the facilities.”

Saskatchewan has 617 megawatts of installed grid-scale wind power generation.

Also, SaskPower is now paying people extra just to stay in Coronach instead of walking away early from the doomed coal plant.

Scrubbing the Echo Chamber

Every so often, a woke journalist pens what they think is a solid hit piece, but in reality winds up largely being a vindication of the actions of the person they are trying to condemn. After reading the article, one could come to the conclusion that Twitter needed some pretty strong tonic, and, while Elon’s bedside manner may not have been the most pleasant, the patient now has a decent chance of recovery.

In its early days, when Twitter was at its most Twittery, circa 2012, ….when the platform was credited for amplifying the Occupy Wall Street movement and the Arab Spring, when it seemed like ­giving everyone a microphone might ­actually bring down dictatorships and right the wrongs of neoliberal capitalism.

After pages full of the expected vitriol at the nerve, (the nerve, I tell you!), of Musk for daring to upset the woke apple cart, here’s a belated admission:

In some ways, Musk was vindicated. Twitter was less stable now, but the platform survived and mostly functioned even with the majority of employees gone. He had promised to rightsize a bloated company, and now it operated on minimal head count.

 

And The Budget Will Balance Itself

Like national child care, a program that empowers parents to offload their expenses onto their grandchildren.

Cabinet has invoked confidentiality in refusing to disclose the overhead cost of a new social program, the Canada Dental Benefit. This follows suspicions that administrative expenses are high, though the program disqualifies the poorest Canadian families from receiving aid, according to Blacklock’s Reporter. […]

Parliament last November 17 passed Bill C-31 An Act Respecting Cost Of Living Relief Measures that introduced the dental care program. It pays a yearly $650 tax-free grant to parents of children under 12 with household income under $70,000 a year. Families with income from $70,000 to $90,000 would qualify for reduced grants.

“Based on similar federal programs we have estimated a reasonable overhead cost for the national program is about five percent,” wrote the Budge Office. Five percent of the official $938 million annual cost of free dentistry is $46.9 million.

“I’ve just flown in from California, where they’ve made homosexuality legal. I thought I’d get out before they make it compulsory.”

Oh, wait.

Microsoft has said it will cut 10,000 jobs by the end of March, in the latest sign that layoffs are accelerating in the US tech sector as companies brace for an economic downturn.

The layoffs will result in a charge of $1.2bn in the second quarter of its fiscal year, Microsoft said.

Bill could sell some farmland, keep those employees on the payroll.

Say It Isn’t So, Joe!

The knives are out.

For years, as Joe Biden has sought to assure the American public he deserves their trust, he’s relied upon a go-to phrase meant to underscore his credibility: “I give you my word as a Biden.”

But that’s not the only way the Biden family name has been used. The president’s brothers have invoked it in their private business pursuits over the years to suggest access to power and influence, according to a CNN review of court documents, emails and video recordings as well as interviews with former business acquaintances.

A year after Biden was elected, for example, his youngest brother, Frank, boasted in a speech to medical professionals gathered in Boston of the “bully pulpit” he was afforded due to “my brother Joey,” and vowed to help attendees “get federal dollars.” Just three months ago, Frank Biden was an invited keynote speaker at a medical conference in Venice, Italy, where he gave advice to a group lobbying the federal government – a trip he acknowledged he did not pay for but declined to say who did.

Biden’s son, Hunter, meanwhile, has bluntly acknowledged in a memoir that his last name was a “coveted credential” helping him land a lucrative and controversial gig as a board member for a Ukrainian energy company when Joe Biden was vice president. That company, Burisma, “considered my last name gold,” Hunter Biden.

Poor CNN: CNN is a bit late to the show but finally admits that Biden met with his son’s corrupt business partners on multiple occasions when he was vice president.
