From buying a home to raising children and caring for aging parents, families need more room in their budgets. In “Home Economics,” part of our new Priced Out affordability handbook, @PatricePinkFile examines how government overreach drives up household costs—and how cutting red tape, expanding school choice, and letting families keep more of their earnings can help. Families deserve the freedom to build a life they can afford. Read her chapter: clubforgrowthfoundation.org/…

"My family immigrated to the United States 41 years ago," @PatricePinkFile, vice president for economic policy at @IWF, says. "The socialist movement, now surging through the Democratic Party, challenges the very ethos of what drew us here." 🔗 Read more: wapo.st/4yTc3TB

This is a good explanation of how the TV pool works from former WHCA President Weijia Jiang. The White House press pool is more complex than meets the eye, especially the TV pool. These three things can all be true at once: 1. We do need the TV pool to for the entire press pool to run smoothly. 2. CNN and MSNOW have an aggressively negative bias towards the Trump White House that they did not show towards the Biden WH or the Obama WH. 3. Fairer coverage from these networks (and I mean coverage that is less biased, not fluff coverage) would benefit the entire country AND the White House press pool. Left-leaning TV networks should stop pretending that they have zero bias.
You’ve been hearing a lot about the White House press pool. What IS it? Why does it matter? Hope this helps: piped.video/watch?v=k1cixx…

Brilliant!
The U.S. isn't short of diesel. The world is. So would banning U.S. diesel exports actually lower prices? It might sound like an easy fix. But once you look at refinery economics and how fuel actually moves, the answer gets complicated. Here's why:
Article

Why a Diesel Export Ban Won't Fix Expensive U.S. Diesel Prices

With gasoline and especially diesel prices skyrocketing as of late, politicians in certain quarters are eager to shift the narrative around record-setting diesel prices ahead of elections. Washington

BREAKING: my take on Joy Behar Star Jones of “The View” in @foxnews: “Joy Behar and Star Jones can’t bring themselves to admit that the female candidates they fawned over could not win over the voters," … “It was not their looks or gender but their policies and personalities..." foxnews.com/media/joy-behar-…

The Secretary is absolutely right. I saw this firsthand during my many weeks of fieldwork in Tibet. Women and children routinely cooked indoors by burning yak dung, and I remember seeing dark soot around their noses and mouths. This isn’t an abstract policy debate... it’s what energy poverty looks like. Providing families with modern cooking fuels like propane could dramatically reduce their exposure to indoor air pollution and free women from spending hours tending smoky fires. Energy access is human progress. We should be very careful about climate policies that make modern, cleaner energy harder or more expensive for the world’s poorest communities.
Clean cooking fuel is not just a public health issue—it's today's greatest barrier to women's liberation.   Over a billion women spend hours a day tending fires, subjected to indoor air pollution because of a lack of modern energy technology. Increased energy access does more than power nations—it can transform the living conditions of humanity.

Kamala Harris keeps proving the American people’s decision in 2024 right.
Kamala Harris: “The attack on DEI is an attack on maternal care. An attack on DEI…” *Dramatic Pause* “…to recognize diversity, equity, and inclusion is an attack by definition on maternal care.” I’m sure this stuff sounds genius in her head 🤣

I've got a writer, Stephanie Lundquist-Arora, for Features who FOIA's the living daylights out of Fairfax County Public Schools––all for public benefit. She has uncovered some REAL sus behavior, and FCPS upcharges, upcharges, upcharges. Why? What are they trying to hide from Virginia families? So Stephanie launched a GiveSendGo because their fees are barriers to transparency––and therefore, parental rights.
