Aslo Here, (I Had To Shorten The Head Line, So Here The Full Head Line)
(Squad member Jamaal Bowman demands rents are capped to fight 'plantation capitalism' as he helps AOC announce her Green New Deal for housing he calls a 'form of reparations.)
(We define plantation capitalism as a social and economic management system in Southern cities where the descendants of planter families maintain political and economic dynasties largely by keeping Black workers in extreme poverty, landless, and without political power through extractive policies and police terrorism.) (Note Here, This My Add, Not Part Daily Mail Post)
For The Daily Mail Post; The proposal would invest up to $234 billion over 10 years in public housing and repeal the Faircloth Amendment which limits public housing units
'It is plantation capitalism, to have someone paying 40, 50, 60 percent of their salary towards rent,' said Bowman
Progressives led by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are re-launching a 'Green New Deal' for public housing to address 'environmental injustices' in low-income housing.
The proposal would invest up to $234 billion over 10 years in public housing and repeal the Faircloth Amendment.
The Faircloth Amendment prevents any net increase in public housing units beyond 1999 levels - 1.8 million.
The proposal 'would bring public housing down to zero carbon emissions while creating 280,000 jobs. In the era of government neglected demolition and privatization of our public housing stocks,' according to Ocasio-Cortez.
'Broken policy is relying solely on the market and solely on billionaires in order to produce and extort everyday people of every dime that they have in charging the highest rent,' the congresswoman added in a news conference Thursday. 'A different world is not only possible, a different world is arriving today.'
'Housing is a human right. The rent is too damn high, y'all,' said Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., who grew up in public housing in New York City.
'It is plantation capitalism, to have someone paying 40, 50, 60 percent of their salary towards rent,' said Bowman. 'That is plantation capitalism.'
'Rent should be capped at 20 percent of [salary],' he then said. 'The Green New Deal for public housing is a form of reparations for marginalized communities.'
Sen. Peter Welch, D-Vt., blamed investors for snatching up home inventory
'You know who's buying up all the homes in suburban neighborhoods? Hedge funds, yeah, they're not living there.'
Democrats have already launched an effort to ban hedge funds from buying homes.
A recent report from the Urban Institute, a left-leaning think tank, found some 574,000 single family homes nationwide were owned by large institutional investors that own at least 100 properties as of June 2022.
But another group, the National Rental Home Council, says the numbers need more context. They note that of the 145 million housing units nationwide, such investors only own 0.4 percent.
'We're gonna stand up and transform our energy system and create sustainable housing not based on fossil fuel,' said Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. 'We all going to provide decent quality affordable housing for millions of Americans. And at the same time, we're going to create good-paying, union jobs.'
The bill's latest version allocates more money to address a public housing backlog and for clean energy home improvements.
The bill does not address skyrocketing housing costs for those that do not qualify for public housing - or those that aspire to own their own homes. It will go down in almost-certain defeat in any sort of divided Congress.
But the progressives hope to move the Overton window - at least with what is accepted within their own party.
'I want to send this message very clearly, not just to all of Congress, but including the leadership of the Democratic Party,' said Ocasio-Cortez. 'There's a lot of different things to address, social housing mortgages, interest rates, but any true housing policy must include a commitment to public housing point blank, period.' https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13224351/jamaal-bowman-aoc-green-new-deal-housing-aoc.html

How Bagpipes Work.
The bag is an airtight reservoir that holds air and regulates its flow via arm pressure, allowing the player to maintain continuous, even sound. The player keeps the bag inflated by blowing air into it through a blowpipe or by pumping air into it with a bellows
Ally the Piper, also known as Piper.Ally, is a musician and content creator who has gained a significant following of over 3 million followers on various social media platforms. She is a multi-instrumentalist and vocalist, but is best known for her work on the Great Highland Bagpipe. She is particularly recognized for challenging traditional perceptions of the bagpipe, and for her ability to take the centuries-old instrument and make it relevant and appealing to a modern audience.
Ally began her career as a competitive bagpiper, starting off strong by winning the 2012 World Pipe Band Championships in Glasgow as a member of a youth pipe band. She continued to compete solo and was consistently ranked at the top of her divisions in the Eastern United States. However, in 2016, she decided to step away from competition to focus on her music career.
Since then, Ally has been actively working to break stereotypes about the bagpipes and introduce new audiences to the instrument
She plays songs from Papa Roach, AC/DC, Ozzy Osbourne, Celine Dion, and even Darude’s trance classic “Sandstorm,” on her instrument of choice — the bagpipes.
Ally Crowley-Duncan, also known as “Ally the Piper,” is a 27-year-old Schenectady native who has gone viral on TikTok and other social media. And she’s about to head out on her second tour.
The tour features Mia x Ally which is the combination of Mia Asano and Ally the Piper, both musicians that have gone viral on social media with their instrumental covers of popular songs. Mia, plays the electric violin and Ally, the bagpipes.

MSNBC Goes Full Clown World, Warns Women Will Dress Like in 'Handmaid's Tale' If Trump Wins.
ne of the most recent examples comes from none other than MSNBC, the "official" Stage-4 Trump Derangement Syndrome media outlet. On Sunday's edition of The Weekend, co-host Symone Sanders-Townsend tried to scare the hell out of women by absurdly warning that if Trump wins in November, women will be walking around like characters in the futuristic dystopian novel (and TV series) "The Handmaid's Tale."
No, really. Here's Ms. Sanders-Townsend, in all of her Trump-loathing glory:
[I]f people are not paying attention, and we do not tell people what he's saying ... he will get re-elected, and then y'all are going to be surprised when, again, the ladies are walking around in red dresses with those little white hoods, like The Handmaid's Tale."
Why it's almost like there's a competition on the left about who can spew the most histrionic crap about Trump; the "white supremacist," "dictator-wannabe," and the second coming of "Hitler." My favorite part is how serious they are while making utter fools out of themselves.https://redstate.com/mike_miller/2024/03/18/msnbc-goes-full-clown-world-warns-women-will-dress-like-in-the-handmaids-tale-if-trump-wins-n2171551

iDisaster: Apple in Talks to Integrate Google’s Ultra Woke Gemini AI in iPhones.
Despite recent concerns about Google’s disastrous launch of the ultra-woke Gemini AI including its tendency to erase white people from history, Apple is in talks to integrate Gemini into future iPhone models.

WHY FORD AND GM WON’T SURVIVE THE EV WORLD.
Even when I was a kid I viewed the world differently, much to the chagrin of my parents and teachers. I was always questioning conventional wisdom and I was wary of authority, particularly those whose behaviors were at odds with their proclaimed lofty codes of conduct. The Starkman Approved Principle, which holds that organizations and individuals who publicly profess superior values and uncompromising ethics, invariably are exposed as frauds, was conceived when I was still a teenager.
Suffice to say, I was always encouraged to stifle my contrarian outlook and thinking.
“The whole army is out of step but you?” was my mother’s frequent refrain.
My worldview has never been so out of sync with conventional thinking as my perception of electric vehicles and my belief that China has put America’s political and automotive leadership to shame. If electric vehicles are the future, America must concede defeat as China has already developed a thriving and competitive automotive industry capable of manufacturing kick ass EVs at a profit.
As well, China controls the supply chain of minerals and metals required to manufacture EVs, an effort that was abetted by President Biden’s son, Hunter, which I also regard as a very big deal. China excels at compromising influential political and businesspersons by developing relationships with family members that ultimately could prove embarrassing and used as blackmail.
NYTimes, Dec. 7, 2021
Meanwhile, Ford and GM are slated to lose billions selling their problem plagued EVs, even with the billions in taxpayer money and benefits they receive to incentivize them to move their manufacturing operations to Mexico. A critical component of China’s EV success was a requirement that all EV manufacturing be done within that country’s borders. The U.S. Congress has no such wisdom.
Although Tesla is nominally headquartered in Austin and its engineering operations in Palo Alto, I don’t regard Tesla as a company with U.S. loyalties or sensibilities. Elon Musk is a citizen of the world, a perception that’s shared by Xi Jinping, communist China’s leader. The Wall Street Journal reported Xi regards Musk as “a technology utopian with no political allegiance to any country.” Notably, Musk has repeatedly expressed his admiration for China’s leadership and accomplishments, while referring to President Biden as “a damp sock puppet.”
NBC News, June 2, 2023
While Musk is undeniably brilliant, I neither trust him nor believe anything he says. Musk claims he is opening up Tesla’s charging network to Ford and GM because he wants to help facilitate the widespread acceptance of EVs in the U.S.
The deal initially struck me as akin to Delta allowing coach passengers to use the bathrooms in first class. Upon further reflection, it strikes me as an opportunity for Musk to further weaken Ford and GM and accelerate their inevitable demise if EVs are the future.
Here’s why I’m seemingly a choir of one in my skepticism of the charging partnership Ford and GM have forged with Tesla.
One possible critical wrinkle to the partnership is whether Ford’s and GM’s electric vehicle customers will have full access to Tesla’s entire fast charging network. I’ve seen multiple stories, including this one in the Wall Street Journal, saying that Tesla has more than 17,000 fast chargers in the U.S. Yet the announcements Ford and GM issued regarding their Tesla partnerships say their customers will have access to more than 12,000 Tesla chargers.
Given the gushing coverage Ford and GM have received for their Tesla charging infrastructure surrender, it’s unfathomable to me that the entire media overlooked there are possibly some serious access restrictions. If by chance my concerns are correct, the auto press should be ashamed. What also isn’t clear is whether Ford and GM customers will have access to Tesla’s expanding network, which is supposed to double in size by the end of next year.
Most of the media coverage I’ve read created the mistaken impression that by simply attaching an adapter, Ford and GM electric vehicle owners will enjoy the same flawless charging experience that Tesla owners have come to expect. It’s not quite that simple.
The Biden White House in February announced with great fanfare that Tesla agreed to open 3,500 new and existing Superchargers along highway corridors to non-Tesla customers. Those who have utilized Magic Docks — Tesla stations with rival adapters — say there are issues because the Superchargers were designed to communicate solely with Tesla vehicles.
A critical issue is that Tesla’s charging cables aren’t long enough to reach the charging ports of most rival vehicles. This is especially an issue with Ford’s F-150 Lightning, which can require multiple Tesla charging lanes so the chord can reach the pickup’s port. Owners of Ford Lightnings practically have to camp out at charging stations in hot or cold weather because the real-world range of their vehicles is far less than advertised, particularly in extreme temperatures.
Someone named Jed, who has a YouTube channel called Jetters Garage, made the accompanying video of the challenges and frustrations of charging a Ford Lightning at a Tesla Supercharging station. The video would discourage most persons from buying a Lightning unless they have the patience of Job and have nothing but time on their hands.
At some point, Musk will make good on his promise to launch his cybertruck (he initially said it would be available in 2021) but buyers of the truck will be able to utilize Tesla’s V4 Supercharging, which is designed for Tesla Semis and is three times faster than Tesla’s current Supercharging stations. Ford and GM have made no mention of their pickups having access to Tesla’s V4 chargers. It would be a marketing disgrace if Ford’s and GM’s pickups are relegated to Tesla’s little boys and girls charging stations.
That Ford and GM have opted to look to Tesla to overcome their managements’ poor vision and planning underscores the tragedy of these once proud companies. It borders on pathetic that these companies want their customers to utilize Tesla’s charging equipment and be routinely exposed to the company’s logo and other marketing messages that conceivably could be introduced. The decision also speaks to Ford’s and GM’s lack of faith in the Biden Administration’s ability to oversee the buildout of a reliable national charging network, despite committing $7.5 billion to the effort.
Helping Ford and GM sell more electric vehicles benefits Musk because the legacy automakers lose considerable money on every EV they sell. Ford and GM make most of their profits selling their climate destroying SUVs and trucks, which is why for all GM CEO Mary Barra’s talk about selling more electric vehicles than Tesla by the end of 2025, GM last week announced it would invest more than $1.5 billion to upgrade its gas engine truck factories.
That’s another flaw in the Biden Administration’s energy policies. Biden was prepared to declare a “climate emergency” if the Inflation Reduction Act failed to pass, yet Ford and GM are allowed to continue to sell their energy inefficient SUVs and trucks. If I went to the doctor and was advised that I was at great risk of liver and lung damage, I’d immediately discontinue drinking and smoking. A wiser energy policy would have been to support Rivian, whose CEO strikes me as an upstanding guy.
The media focuses on Tesla, Ford, and GM as being the inevitable leaders of the EV race in the U.S. Little mention is made that 12% of Mercedes’ sales are already electric, and knowledgeable people appreciate Kia’s impressive EV offerings. That would include my cousin Lorn, a brilliant technologist who was an early supporter of Tesla but switched to a Kia, and Joann Muller, the doyenne of auto writers who disclosed in March that she drives a Kia EV6.
Think about that: one of the most knowledgeable auto writers and a longtime Michigan resident opted for a Kia. When I worked at the Detroit News in the mid-80s, no auto writer would dare drive a foreign made vehicle.
There’s good reason why people in the know wouldn’t buy a Ford or GM electric vehicle. They are late to the EV game, and their limited money-losing offerings so far have been recalled multiple times. I’ve seen a couple of stories about buyers of Ford EVs unloading their vehicles in less than a year because the software reportedly isn’t nearly as responsive as Tesla.
If my late mother was still around, she’d tell you not to listen to me but rather an expert like Dan Ives, the equity analyst who is quoted in almost every legacy media story I read. Ives no doubt knows a lot more about EVs than I do, but it’s debatable that he knows what he’s talking about.
Ives last December declared Tesla’s stock a “train wreck” and declared on CNBC that he removed it from his “best ideas” list. Tesla’s stock has been on a tear this year and the company’s Model Y in the first quarter was the best-selling vehicle in the world. https://www.wsj.com/articles/gm-doesnt-tell-the-truth-about-electric-vehicles-auto-industry-climate-policy-92e25d01?st=5lxiysbbrmt4qlx&reflink=article_email_share

The Strange World of Margaret Sanger’s Birth Control Review.
Human Life International is a Catholic, Pro-Life Non-Profit
About 25 years ago, I bought a complete set of Margaret Sanger’s journal The Birth Control Review and ambitiously set out to read every one of its 5,631 pages. The strange experience left me just a little uncertain about what is real and what is not. Sanger’s world has that effect on a person, because it is so completely different from the one we are accustomed to.
Sanger associated with racists and anti-Semites, people who despised everyone who was not a Nordic god or goddess, and those who demanded coercive eugenics programs to eliminate “lesser” humans. The whole bunch, of course, participated in continuous vicious attacks on the Catholic Church.
Most pro-lifers have a vague feeling that Margaret Sanger, the founder of the American Birth Control League (later Planned Parenthood), is somehow “bad,” but they really have no idea. The malignant influence of Sanger and similar thinkers not only has ruined the West to the point that it is dying, but seems Hell-bent on corrupting the rest of the world as well.
Margaret Sanger’s Eugenic Beliefs
Breed, little mothers,
With the tired backs and the tired hands,
Breed for the owners of mills and the owners of mines,
Breed a race of danger-haunted men,
A race of toiling, sweating, miserable men,
Breed, little mothers,
Breed for the owners of mills and the owners of mines,
Breed, breed, breed!
― Birth Control Review, April 1930.1
argaret Sanger’s journal was primarily devoted to the legalization and spread of voluntary birth control. However, the main theme running through The Birth Control Review was eugenics, thus the masthead “Birth Control: To Create a Race of Thoroughbreds.”
The pseudo-science of eugenics was taken very seriously in the first half of the twentieth century and was taught in hundreds of colleges and universities using scores of textbooks written by distinguished scholars. A.P. Pilloy, writing in the BCR, describes both negative and positive eugenics: “Broadly speaking, the aims of eugenics are two: To prevent the unfit from leaving any descendants, and to encourage the multiplication of the more fit and useful citizens.”2
The Birth Control Review frequently highlighted the mission of its parent organization: “The American Birth Control League. Its Aim: To promote eugenic birth selection throughout the United States so that there may be more well-born and fewer ill-born children ― a stronger, healthier and more intelligent race.”

Forced Sterilizations, Eugenics and Margret Sanger.
It was with some astonishment that I learned several days ago that Planned Parenthood of Manhattan had decided to remove the name Margaret Sanger from its headquarters and had encouraged other Planned Parenthood affiliates to do the same. The authorities cited Sanger’s eugenicism and racism as the motives for this dethronement of the iconic founder of the Birth Control League and its successor, Planned Parenthood. Until recently, anyone who criticized Sanger in print would be swiftly rebutted by Planned Parenthood apologists, who insisted that the charges of eugenicism and racism were false. But stubborn facts and our nation’s new scrutiny of our racial history have eroded the mythology of Sanger and laid bare her eugenics project in its racist, coercive details.https://www.americamagazine.org/politics-society/2020/07/28/margaret-sangers-extreme-brand-eugenics

Judge Judy Episodes 9973 Best Amazing Cases Season 2024
Judy Sheindlin (born October 21, 1942, Brooklyn, New York, U.S.) American jurist and television personality who was best known for the show Judge Judy (1996–2021).
Blum earned (1963) a Bachelor of Arts degree from American University, Washington, D.C. She was the only woman in her graduating class at New York Law School, New York City, when she earned a J.D. in 1965; she passed the bar the same year. She was married by that time, and, though she entered private practice, she soon left it to devote her time to raising her two children. Her first marriage ended in divorce, and in 1977 she married Gerald Sheindlin, a fellow lawyer who later became a judge of New York state’s Supreme Court.
Sheindlin took a position in 1972 as a prosecuting attorney in New York City’s family court. Her outspoken and forthright approach to her cases caught the eye of Ed Koch, then mayor of New York City, and in 1982 he appointed her a judge in the Bronx branch of the family court. The caseload in the court was extremely large, and she gained a reputation for handling her cases with discernment and dispatch. In 1986 Sheindlin was promoted to supervising judge in the family court’s Manhattan branch, a position she held for 10 years. Her blunt manner won her favourable attention, and in 1993 she was featured on the TV newsmagazine show 60 Minutes.https://www.britannica.com/biography/Judy-Sheindlin

He preferred to penetrate enemy lines utilizing local boats to prevent them from recognizing the sound of the American boats. He recounts his “first taste of urban combat,” and how he wasn’t prepared to go from the jungle to fighting in a city during the fall of Saigon. Marcinko also recalls some close calls when fighting, and attributes a certain amount of luck to staying alive. He said, “I don’t have any purple hearts…I always got the other guy first!”
