Fossil fuel divestment bill dies in California Legislature — and a Democrat killed it

June 22, 2022 by www.sfchronicle.com

This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate 2 Climate activists and environmental groups were seething Wednesday after a Democratic Assembly member killed a measure that would have required the state’s pension systems — two of the country’s largest — to divest from fossil fuels in the next decade. Senate Bill 1173, written by Sens. Lena Gonzalez (D-Long Beach) and Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco), would have ordered the California Public Employees’ Retirement System and the California State Teachers’ Retirement System to divest from the fossil fuel industry by 2030. CalPERS and CalSTRS invest a combined total of about $9 billion in fossil fuel companies. The bill was scheduled to be heard by the Assembly Committee on Public Employment and Retirement on Wednesday. But the day before the hearing, Assembly Member Jim Cooper (D-Elk Grove), the committee chair, removed it from the committee’s agenda. “At a time when there is so much … [Read more...] about Fossil fuel divestment bill dies in California Legislature — and a Democrat killed it

Democrats’ chances of beating Ron Johnson in Wisconsin, according to polls

June 23, 2022 by www.newsweek.com

Wisconsin Democrats are aiming to flip Ron Johnson 's seat blue in November's midterm race, with recent polls showing the GOP senator may face an uphill battle for reelection. Johnson announced in January that he would seek a third Senate term despite previously pledging not to serve more than two terms. Meanwhile, recent polls show that more Wisconsin voters view the senator unfavorably than those who view him favorably. President Joe Biden won the swing state in the 2020 presidential election after Democrats flipped the governor's mansion blue for Tony Evers in 2018. It's still unclear which Democrat will face off against Johnson on November 8. Wisconsin's primaries will be held August 9, with the top four Democratic contenders being Lieutenant Governor Mandela Barnes, state Treasurer Sarah Godlewski, businessman Alex Lasry and Outagamie County Executive Tom Nelson. A new poll released this week and conducted from June 14 to 20 by Marquette Law School showed the … [Read more...] about Democrats’ chances of beating Ron Johnson in Wisconsin, according to polls

Donald Trump: John Cornyn Helping ‘Radical Left Democrats’ Implement Gun Control

June 23, 2022 by www.breitbart.com

Former President Donald Trump referred to Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) as a RINO on Wednesday and warned he is helping “radical left Democrats” implement gun control. The Hill reported Trump made his comments on social media, writing: The deal on ‘Gun Control’ currently being structured and pushed in the Senate by the Radical Left Democrats, with the help of Mitch McConnell, RINO Senator John Cornyn of Texas, and others, will go down in history as the first step in the movement to TAKE YOUR GUNS AWAY. Republicans, be careful what you wish for!!! Cornyn also faced pushback from the NRA this week, as they rejected the Cornyn gun control package as a piece of legislation that “falls short on every level.” The NRA noted, “This legislation can be abused to restrict lawful gun purchases, infringe upon the rights of law-abiding Americans, & use fed dollars to fund gun control measures being adopted by state & local politicians.” On Saturday, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) also … [Read more...] about Donald Trump: John Cornyn Helping ‘Radical Left Democrats’ Implement Gun Control

Andrew Yang slams Democrats over fallout from Roe v. Wade

June 24, 2022 by www.newsweek.com

Former Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang criticized Democrats on Friday after the Supreme Court released a ruling that overturns the landmark abortion rights case Roe v. Wade . Yang, who also ran as a Democratic candidate for New York City mayor in 2021, announced he was leaving the Democratic party in October. "It feels like Democrats owe their people an apology for being bad at their jobs," Yang tweeted on Friday, adding that they "had a long time to codify Roe v. Wade , defend a balanced court, get RBG [Ruth Bader Ginsburg] to step down, etc. Instead they got played and trounced. 'Help undo our failures!' is not a compelling rallying cry." "The people who are going to get hurt by this the worst will be poor women in red states, while the folks who played politics with this will glide along and email people for money," Yang continued. After Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg , a liberal, died while still serving on the court in 2020, … [Read more...] about Andrew Yang slams Democrats over fallout from Roe v. Wade

As Republicans celebrate end of Roe, Democrats vow revenge at polls

June 24, 2022 by www.sfgate.com

Democratic lawmakers and candidates unleashed a torrent of angry, defiant statements Friday, promising to make abortion rights a decisive issue for voters in November, as Republicans celebrated their victory in a decades-long fight for the Supreme Court to end the constitutional right to an abortion. Since a draft opinion leaked in early May indicating that the court was prepared to overturn the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, advocates for reproductive rights have looked ahead to the midterm elections as their only chance to have those rights restored. Democrats believe that by overturning the landmark decision, the Supreme Court just handed them an issue to mobilize voters, particularly suburban women, in an otherwise difficult political climate. And some Republicans are concerned about a backlash in the midterms, particularly from suburban women swing voters. President Joe Biden, speaking at the White House on Friday, called on Congress to codify abortion into law. If there aren't … [Read more...] about As Republicans celebrate end of Roe, Democrats vow revenge at polls

Democrats like their own farts more than Republican do, a “Cards Against Humanity” poll found

December 18, 2017 by www.newsweek.com

It appears Democrats could use the advice of Outkast's Andre 3000, who once rapped : "I know you'd like to think your shit don't stink, but lean a little bit closer, see roses really smell like ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh." The implication from Three Stacks here was that the, um, fecal matter, did indeed stink. But apparently Democrats didn't take that lesson to heart. A new poll from the irreverent game Cards Against Humanity found that Democrats like the smell of their farts more than Republicans like the scent of their own rear-end emissions. In a post detailing the results of the survey, the company wrote, "Because we could, we asked people if they thought their farts were more smelly or less smelly than other people's farts." Most folks, 51 percent, refused to answer or hung up. But 30 percent of respondents said they thought their farts were less smelly than the average American, while 19 percent said more smelly. Seventy percent of women thought their farts were less smelly than … [Read more...] about Democrats like their own farts more than Republican do, a “Cards Against Humanity” poll found

Fact Check: Do polls show Ron DeSantis losing to Democrat Charlie Crist?

June 25, 2022 by www.newsweek.com

As the election for Governor of Florida draws closer, several prominent social media accounts have claimed that the incumbent Ron DeSantis may be facing a tougher challenge than anticipated, with recent polls allegedly tilting in favor of his Democratic opponent, U.S. Rep. Charlie Crist from the 13th District. One of the most popular Republican leaders, DeSantis has long been tipped to challenge Donald Trump in the Republican presidential primaries. As such, many expected him to comfortably secure his re-election in November's midterms, but does new polling put a dent in his ambitions? The Claim A number of left-leaning Twitter accounts have claimed that Crist has edged higher than DeSantis in recent polls. "BREAKING: Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis' re-election chances are put in major jeopardy as a new poll of Florida voters shows that he's losing to Democrat Charlie Crist, who is at 48% of the vote compared to DeSantis' 47%," wrote OccupyDemocrats in a … [Read more...] about Fact Check: Do polls show Ron DeSantis losing to Democrat Charlie Crist?

Tucker Carlson Mocks Colbert, Calls Him A ‘Partisan Scold’ For The Democratic Party

June 22, 2022 by dailycaller.com

Fox News host and Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson mocked late night host Stephen Colbert after several of Colbert’s production staffers were arrested Thursday in Longworth House Office Building after it had closed. U.S. Capitol Police arrested several of Colbert’s staffers Thursday after they allegedly entered the building and were seen on the sixth floor without congressional ID or escort when the building was closed to visitors, Fox News reported. Authorities reportedly charged all of them with unlawful entry. Carlson on Tuesday criticized Colbert, accusing the late night host of having a double standard in regards to his own staffers’ arrests and those who breached the Capitol building on Jan. 6, 2021. “How is what Stephen Colbert did different from what the protesters did different than what the protesters on January 6 have been convicted of doing?” Carlson said. “That’s a very good question. And it’s a question that Colbert himself spent the weekend thinking … [Read more...] about Tucker Carlson Mocks Colbert, Calls Him A ‘Partisan Scold’ For The Democratic Party

Breitbart Business Digest: Democrat Inflation Narrative Is Running Off the Rails

June 23, 2022 by www.breitbart.com

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, the Massachusetts Democrat, warned Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell that his single-minded determination to bring down inflation might “drive the economy off a cliff.” Warren accused Powell and his fellow Federal Reserve officials of not tailoring their inflation solution to the specific problem of inflation. She had Powell confess that there is little the Fed can do when it comes to food prices or gas prices. “Rate hikes won’t make Vladimir Putin turn his tanks around and leave Ukraine,” Warren said at a hearing of the Senate Banking Committee. She then threw in some gripes about corporate monopolies and COVID-19. “Right now, the Fed has no control over the main drivers of rising prices, but the Fed can slow demand by getting a lot of people fired and making families poorer,” Warren said. Warren voted against Powell’s original nomination to the Fed chair by Donald Trump and then his renomination by Joe Biden. So it is not surprising that she … [Read more...] about Breitbart Business Digest: Democrat Inflation Narrative Is Running Off the Rails

Ted Cruz: Red Flag Laws, Democrat Approach to Gun Violence ‘Unconstitutional’

June 23, 2022 by www.breitbart.com

Wednesday, during an appearance on FNC’s “Hannity,” Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) criticized Democrat efforts to crack down on gun violence using red flag laws and other measures he deemed “unconstitutional.” According to the Texas Republican, by disarming some in the public with a low standard of proof made them less safe. “Well, Sean, I agree with you, and tragically, we’ve seen the same pattern play out over and over again,” he said. “Every time there is a horrific mass murder, there have been far too many of them. I was in Uvalde the day after that horrific attack when that psychopath murdered 19 children and two teachers. And it is horrific. We need to stop them. But instantaneously, when there’s a criminal attack, a mass murder, we have a debate in Washington, and there are two approaches. One approach is target the bad guys, target the criminals, target the violent felons and those with serious mental illness who try to illegally buy firearms. Prosecute them, put them in jail, get … [Read more...] about Ted Cruz: Red Flag Laws, Democrat Approach to Gun Violence ‘Unconstitutional’
