Honk if you hate jobs

Doomsday Climate Activists v. Reality

Democrat-run states across the country are recruiting federal workers fired by Trump (and doing everything in their power to tell us all about it). Obviously, the NYT penned a long glowing piece on the trend, framing the matter as a bargain. But are we truly just a bureaucrat or two away from functioning infrastructure? And keep in mind, New York is not only on a “hiring spree,” it’s employing the BRIDGE Act to grant all fired federal workers rehired by the state expedited access to pensions. Hilariously, this story has been dwarfed by a viral clip of darling libs Jon Stewart and Ezra Klein aghast over crippling process, which means it does at least look like the Democrats have finally settled on a new path forward: earnestly anti-bureaucracy while furiously opposed to firing bureaucrats, and self-righteously committed to paying them — to do nothing — until they die. Ah yes, progress.

Trump dropped a 25% tariff on imported cars last week, leaving automakers choking on exhaust — well, other than Tesla, which builds its domestically-sold cars in America. Elon haters were quick to cry cronyism, claiming Trump was favoring his DOGE commander. But, in this case, there’s really no “protection racket.” Galvanizing American manufacturing has always been a ...

Doomsday Climate Activists v. Reality

The Supreme Court has declined to hear Juliana v. United States, a climate case brought against the federal government by 21 young people who argued their constitutional rights were violated by the U.S. encouraging fossil fuel use.
