So,This Is What Happened Last Night

I had to drive some people to the airport a couple hours away. I know these people well but don't want to say too much. They are all U.S citizens. The one person who should have drove them and wanted to drive them is not a U.S. citizen. But he does have asylum and a green card. The one thing he doesn't have is white skin. Infact he's very dark. He is one of the best, level headed men i know. With reports of ICE around the airport and surrounding areas the people who he should have been with were worried for his safety and pushed hard for him not to take them. Right now as I write this tears are running down my face. I am ****ing pissed right now. Anyway, I'm going to let the cat out of the bag. While loading the luggage in the truck I looked at my 15 year old granddaughter and said this is the true definition of white privilege. I said 'I can take you to the airport ', and she finished my thought saying ' but #@&># can't ' we just looked at each other

When anything good happens during Trump's term, you can be sure they'll claim it's the resurgence of the "Biden economy".

U.S. bank regulator says large banks engaged in ‘debanking’ of disfavored industries

https://srnnews.com/u-s-bank-regulator-says-large-banks-engaged-in-debanking-of-disfavored-industries/

WASHINGTON, Dec 10 (Reuters) – The U.S. banking regulator overseeing large national banks said the nation’s nine largest firms had in the past placed restrictions on providing financial services to some controversial industries in a practice commonly described as “debanking.”

... It said banks had restricted access to industries including oil and gas, coal mining, tobacco and e-cigarettes, and crypto products.

... the firms examined were JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citigroup, Wells Fargo, U.S. Bank, Capital One, PNC, TD Bank and BMO Bank.

An investigation into the debanking of political and activist organizations is also warranted. It was done, https://www.heritage.org/progressivism/commentary/how-democrats-debanked-political-opponents-shocking-attack-american , and a similar Lib/Prog activist pattern would be found.

Oldest evidence of human fire-making discovered at site in England

https://srnnews.com/oldest-evidence-of-human-fire-making-discovered-at-site-in-england/

Quote
Dec 10 (Reuters) – Scientists have discovered the oldest-known evidence of fire-making by prehistoric humans in the English county of Suffolk – a hearth apparently made by Neanderthals about 415,000 years ago – revealing that this milestone for our evolutionary lineage occurred far earlier than previously known.

At an old clay pit for making bricks near the village of Barnham, the researchers found a patch of heated clay, some heat-shattered flint handaxes and two pieces of iron pyrite – a mineral that creates sparks when struck against flint to ignite tinder – that they identified as a repeatedly used campfire.

It was situated near a watering hole where these humans encamped.

“We think humans brought pyrite to the site with the intention of making fire. And this has huge implications pushing back the earliest fire-making,” said archaeologist Nick Ashton, curator of Palaeolithic Collections at the British Museum in London and leader of the research published on Wednesday in the journal Nature.

Until now, the earliest-known evidence of fire-making was from about 50,000 years ago at a site in northern France, also attributed to Neanderthals.

The controlled use of fire was a landmark event for the human evolutionary lineage, not only for cooking and providing protection from predators but for providing warmth that enabled hunter-gatherers to thrive in areas with colder environs.

It's amazing and wryly amusing how the settled science of a century ago - e.g. Piltdown Man had not yet been exposed as a planned fraud - has been overturned. In this case, the once believed to be apelike Neanderthals are shown to have used fire and tools for starting fires 400K years earlier than previously thought. Somewhat less recently, It has also been discovered that Neanderthals were inter-fertile with supposedly more modern humans. Maybe (Gasp!) Neanderthals were just a sub-population of humans.

Regardless of how accurate that opinion might be, it would be very healthy for people in sciences to qualify their studies and conclusions with statements along the line of, "This is what we know currently." IOW, remind readers that future discoveries might utterly overturn what is currently "known".

While this shampeachment would fail utterly in the Senate, what are the Las Vegas odds the resolution will get laughed out of the House?

He isn't tearing down our country, he is tearing down leftist constructs, like he was elected to.

Dear DUmmies:

Elections have consequences.

You're just a bunch of bitter losers that only only love democracy when you win.

**** all the way off.

Articles of Impeachment Introduced Against RFK Jr.

Quote
A House Democrat said she had introduced articles of impeachment against Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a move unlikely to succeed under the current Republican majority.

"RFK Jr. has turned his back on science and the safety of the American people," said Representative Haley Stevens, the Michigan Democrat moving to impeach Kennedy Jr, in a statement posted to X.

The impeachment effort isn't likely to succeed given the Republicans have a majority in both the House of Representatives and the Senate.

High end virtue signalling there.  No chance of accomplishing anything, but "hey, lookie what we did!!!111!!!!!"
