A new downtown high-rise housing project has opened in Los Angeles. It’s supposed to be affordable housing built for the homeless population. Each unit costs $600,000 to build and is funded by taxpayers. The building features one floor with offices for caseworkers. It also contains a gym, art room, music room, computer room and library. It sounds like a failure already because it’s certainly not affordable housing. What do you suppose it will look like in a short time?
The FBI, Secret Service, U.S. Marshals, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, and several other federal agencies have come under criticism after the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump. It has been revealed that these agencies have prioritized diversity, equity and inclusion over qualifications. This can get people killed. Not acceptable at all.
Our government is making a big push to promote lab-grown meat. You know those pesky cows fart, and it messes up the climate. Since we didn’t flock to eat the insect-based proteins pushed our way, the new push is to introduce them into people’s diets without them even knowing. It’s called “Acheta Protein,” and it’s actually cricket powder. It’s becoming increasingly present in ordinary foods.
The Woke Disney company is being sued by America First legal group. They are accused of having DEI policies that discriminate against white males, Christians and Jews. Surely Disney wouldn’t do that, would they?
Colorado parents are suing the school system outside of Denver with the help of the Center for American Liberty. The parents claim the school and a state therapist encouraged their daughter to use male pronouns and offered her transgender-related telemedicine for months without the knowledge or consent of the parents.
Vice President Kamala Harris is blaming high grocery prices on greedy grocers. She claims she will bring prices down by mandating price freezes and stopping these retailers from “price gouging.” She has no clue how the real world works. Groceries have one of the lowest profit margins of any commodity. It’s not just grocery prices rising, it’s all prices, and it’s caused by the failed Biden administration policies, mainly massive spending.
The Supreme Court has again ruled against the Biden-Harris administration’s attempt to erase student loan debt. The administration keeps trying to find new ways to get around the rule of law. So far, nothing has worked. It’s clearly illegal, and they don’t seem to care. They want to get it done by hook or by crook.
The Biden administration has been touting their job numbers. The problem is, they lied. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics recent report adjusted the number down by 818,000. How do you miscalculate to that extent? Manufacturing lost over 115,000 jobs in the year. That’s not good news for the administration.
California can come up with the craziest stuff. There is a proposal to provide state-funded home loans to illegal immigrants. The program provides 20% of the home’s purchase price as a loan. The loan does not require interest or monthly payments. While many Americans are struggling to fulfill the dream of owning their own home, illegals can have an advantage like this. What a deal.
This California deal is even crazier. The Senate has passed a bill that will make illegal immigrants eligible for up to $150,000 in state-supported loans for down payments on houses. It’s called the “California Dream for All” program. I swear you just can’t make this stuff up.
The Vermont Department of Health put out a notice informing parents they shouldn’t call their child “son” or “daughter” because it isn’t inclusive. They should use “child” or “kid” instead because it’s gender-neutral. One should say “family members” rather than “household members.”
Harris’ running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, is a little weird, in my opinion. He signed a bill to require tampons in boys’ bathrooms. To me, that’s weird. He is also requiring teachers licensing laws to ban practicing Christians, Jews and Muslims from teaching in public schools. I wonder if he even considered banning practicing witchcraft? No mention of that in the report that I read.
A Venezuelan prison gang took over an apartment in Colorado. Venezuela emptied its prisons and sent the hoodlums to us through our open southern border. The gangs go into the apartment complexes and force out the property management and simply take over. This can’t be the America I grew up in. It just can’t be.
Sen. Joyce Krawiec has represented Forsyth County and the 31st District in the North Carolina Senate since 2014. She lives in Kernersville.
