Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin ordered the extended naval presence, John Kirby, a White House spokesman, said at a news briefing. Mr. Austin also ordered the missile-test delay to avoid further inflaming relations with China, Mr. Kirby said. He didn’t respond to a reporter’s question on whether President Biden ordered the delay.
“As China engages in destabilizing military exercises around Taiwan, the United States is demonstrating instead the behavior of a responsible nuclear power by reducing the risks of miscalculation,” Mr. Kirby said.
In the FBI’s view, the top domestic violence extremist threat comes from racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists, specifically those who advocated for the superiority of the White race.
The democrats can't believe that people need to work 2 jobs to keep up with inflation. All they want to do is count the jobs.
Are they there to help the gangs unload the trains?A rule proposed by the Federal Railroad Administration would require two crew members on all trains in almost all situations for the foreseeable future.
Probably to keep each other awake.Are they there to help the gangs unload the trains?
There's a lot of railroad corporate propaganda in that piece. Never forget with the railroards, especially the Class 1's, it's ALL about the shareholders. The railroads did this to themselves chasing ever higher profits. They've cut operations, mechanical, and maintenance staffs practically to the bone. Customers are pissed off at them because they can never deliveries and pickups when they are needed. (Thank you PSR.) Even the Surface Transportation Board agrees.Biden Administration Takes a Step Back on Railroad Safety
As if we didn’t have enough factors putting upward pressure on prices, the Biden administration this week proposed a rule that over time would add to the cost of everything that comes to us via rail.
A rule proposed by the Federal Railroad Administration would require two crew members on all trains in almost all situations for the foreseeable future. This comes on the heels of a report that railroads – like a lot of American industries – are having problems finding dependable employees and at a time when contract negotiations between railroads and various unions are at critical stages.
On top of that, this is the third time the proposal has been considered – a similar rule was proposed in 2016 under President Obama then abandoned in 2016 under President Trump because the government could not produce any evidence the rule would enhance the safety of the railroads.
What’s painful about this is the government knows it will increase costs. It knows railroads will struggle to find more people and to pay them more in the future, and it knows the second crew member is not necessary to improve safety.
Seems like a ' give me ' to UNIONS to pad the employee roles
The very title Democrats gave the bill — “Inflation Reduction Act of 2022” — is a boldfaced lie, and should be reason enough to view the bill as a scam. According to the Penn Wharton Budget Model, the bill would have no impact on inflation. In fact, it would “very slightly increase inflation until 2024” (emphasis added).
Given all this, what’s in it for the American people? The bill’s focus is largely on “Energy Security and Climate Change” programs. As Biden and Democrats now tout the “incredible transition” their anti-American energy policies have created, we already know what this will leave Americans with: higher prices and nothing but demands from Biden administration officials to buy expensive electric vehicles.
Industry experts already confirm this. The methane tax in the bill, for instance, would increase natural gas costs by 17% — or $100 a year for the average American family.
It’s clear that if Americans simply know the truth behind the bill, and what it will do to their pocketbooks, this latest ploy by Biden and the left to remake America leaves congressional Democrats even more vulnerable in November. Already, 82% of Americans say the economy is “poor.” This bill would only worsen every problem plaguing our economy.
Democrats who vote for this bill will be accountable to American voters in less than four months. In the meantime, let’s be honest: this is the newest Bidenflation Scam.
