Mad Maxine - 40MPG - White Women are “Birthing People”

Rep. Maxine Waters Tells Homeless to 'Go Home'

A chaotic scene unfolded in South Los Angeles last week when Rep. Maxine Waters showed up to an event aimed at providing emergency resources to homeless Angelenos in her district, an event where those who turned out were expecting something much different than what played out.

According to The Los Angeles Times, while Waters requested that the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority show up in the community to provide assistance to her homeless constituents, "an unofficial social media post erroneously promised that those who showed up would get rare vouchers for permanent, subsidized housing."

New Cars Must Average 40 MPG by 2026

We knew the federal government was going to crack down on new car fuel economy soon, and now we're seeing just how much. As the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration confirmed Friday morning, it's undoing the Trump-era rollbacks that would've required new vehicles to average 24 miles per gallon by 2026. Instead, they must hit 40 mpg in four years' time—not exactly a small increase, but one that's still tamer than what some environmental groups were pulling for.

These new rules have average fuel economy increasing eight percent per year for model years 2024 and 2025, then jumping 10 percent in the 2026 model year. The NHTSA claims this will save more than 200 billion gallons of gasoline versus the previously set requirements, which themselves were a drastic reworking of those established by former President Obama. Apparently, the rules announced Friday will equal those standards by 2025 and then slightly exceed them come 2026.

EV Car Batteries Destroy the Environment and Violate Human Rights

Automotive companies and environmentalists herald electric vehicles as one of the solutions to addressing environmental problems such as the climate change crisis and air pollution. With their electric powertrains, EVs produce zero carbon emissions. However, electric vehicles have a dirty secret: the lithium and cobalt that are in EV car batteries destroy the environment and violate human rights.

Judge Strikes Down California’s Corporate Board Racial Diversity Law

Recently, a California court ruled the state’s racial, ethnic and LGBTQ corporate board quota law is unconstitutional. This decision is an important victory against a patently discriminatory law with far-reaching, adverse implications for the for-profit and charitable sectors.

Health Official Calls Black and Hispanic Women “Moms,” Says White Women are “Birthing People”

One of the key weapons added to the leftist arsenal in the last century is called “semiotics” – the postmodernist tactic of redefining words to make them mean whatever they want.

Combined with the Marxist inveiglement of constantly posing as the paladin of the “underdog,” the savior of the “besieged minority,” the defender of the “victim,” collectivists have given birth to an ever-growing brood of “woke” terms and “protected” people who will be favored by the state, which, of course, will victimize anyone who would prefer to be left alone as a free person.

Now, the shallow virtue-signal rhetoric that lies at the core of semiotics is so pervasive, and the state-selected “favorites” are so numerous, at least one bureaucrat is having trouble juggling all the manipulative NewSpeak.
