THE 'SQUAD' wants it's own [DC statehood] star.
If the residents of Washington DC really wanted full representation in Congress, they would do what the residents west of the Potomac did many years ago - they joined the state of Virginia and now have 2 Senators and 11 Representatives to call their own. The residents east of the Potomac could rejoin Maryland and have 2 Senators and 8 Representatives in Congress.
DC statehood is phony baloney. It's a Democrat power grab, nothing more.

POLITICAL CORRECTNESS is quite simply a war on common sense.
Read it all, but to me the key element is that common sense has a demonstrable connection with the physical world; as an engineer, I would call it simply consistency with the Laws of Physics as we understand them. One does not jump from tall buildings to get to the ground quicker; one does not let small children play with sharp objects, etc., etc.
What we choose to do and choose not to do is 'common sense' in that in the physical world - it works. Political correctness lives in a reality disconnected from the physical world.

SOCIAL JUSTICE WARRIOR: Customers at Chick-fil-A are eating their fried chicken spitefully.
Keep boycotting, warriors. I enjoy eating in an idiot-free restaurant.

CALIFORNIA'S REAL ENVIRONMENTAL CRISIS:
The Trump administration plans to deliver a notice of environmental violation to San Francisco over its homelessness problem.That sounds like a problem the EPA should be dealing with.
President Trump said late Wednesday the notice would come from the Environmental Protection Agency. He said waste, specifically used needles, in storm sewers is contributing to ocean pollution.
“It’s a terrible situation that’s in Los Angeles and in San Francisco,” Mr. Trump told reporters on Air Force One on his flight from California to Washington. “And we’re going to be giving San Francisco, they’re in total violation, we’re going to be giving them a notice very soon.”
He added: “They have to clean it up. We can’t have our cities going to hell.”
DANG! Those SJW torpedos keep circling back. Must be a projection failure in their guidance systems....
What Trudeau should say - but can't because he is himself a social justice warrior - is this: "Those were different times. Grow up. Get over it."

ANOTHER [CALIFORNIA (NATURALLY)] CITY bans natural gas in new construction projects.
I'm going to enjoy listening to their lamentations as they sit in their homes freezing in the dark. And with no electricity their EVs aren't going to run very well....

OIL CRISIS? What oil crisis?
I love this part:"... the U.S. Navy used to have to keep the straits of Hormuz open. Now it only has to be able to close them."
