ICE correctly shuts down publicity stunt from Congresswoman claiming “congressional authority” to do whatever she wants
Our take: There seems to be a new trend where members of congress randomly show up at federal facilities and claim they have the right to go and do wherever and whatever they want. To be crystal clear, nothing about election to Congress confers those powers on anyone.
ICE went looking for about 100 illegal immigrants – some alleged to be gang members and suspected drug traffickers. David Huerta, the President of the Service Employees International Union, did not like that these raids were happening and tried to prevent ICE from conducting them. He was promptly arrested and is being held at the Federal building.
Waters is never one to miss an opportunity to make a scene, regardless of if it makes any sense or not. She showed up with cameras in tow specifically to get turned away and play the victim card like she has done for decades.
Please keep in mind when you see stories like this that members of Congress don’t have the right to go wherever they want whenever they want, even in federal buildings or facilities. Auntie Maxine should go back to teasing her wigs. No one is buying her disingenuous pandering.

Public school teacher fired for wearing shirt calling for Trump assassination on field trip to Washington, DC
Our take: 8647. Remember that number. It stands for kill (86) Donald Trump (47th President). A group of middle school students learned all about it on a school trip to Washington, DC, when one of their teachers decided to wear a shirt with that number emblazoned on it.
In a shock to no one but the teacher, she was promptly fired when the stunt was reported on. She tried to defend herself, saying the trip was “not a school-sponsored or affiliated trip, as stated in the trip registration.”
Cool story, bro. If you don’t have the good judgment to know that you shouldn’t wear a shirt advocating for the assassination of the president in front of 8th grade kids, we don’t need you teaching kids. Better dust off the resume and see if Foot Locker is hiring.

More scientists are publicly telling the truth about climate change alarmism
Our take: File this one under It's about fucking time. More scientists are publicly questioning the ridiculous narrative that the planet will fall apart and become completely uninhabitable in the next 20 years unless we all move back into caves and stop using bathroom tissue.
In the article, they discuss the fact that the warming of the planet is slower than expected, that polar ice is actually growing again, that extreme weather events cannot be attributed to climate change, that sea level is not rising at the rates we were promised they would, and that any climate predictions are extremely uncertain and should not be stated as fact or even acted on with certainty.
Duh. Those of us old enough to remember the 1970s and 1980s remember the following “emergencies” that turned out to be bullshit: acid rain would ruin the planet, the ice caps would be gone by the year 2000 (yeah—that’s not a new prediction), the ozone layer would disintegrate and we would all fry, Y2K would end civilization, and Japan would take over the world in the 1980s. Save your apocalyptic predictions. You sound like Chicken Little to us, and we are not listening anymore.

Tip of the Day
Emotions are a normal and natural part of how we respond to situations. Rather than beating yourself up for feeling angry or scared, recognize that your emotional reactions are valid. Try to practice self-compassion and give yourself grace. Recognize that experiencing emotions is a normal human reaction.
