If you get a chance to watch the Cincinnati police chief scold “social media press” for giving only part of the story of the “brawl” over the weekend, imagine that the Minneapolis police chief had given *precisely* the same speech after George Floyd died. Maybe such a speech could have saved the city. In the case of Minneapolis, that speech would have been 100% appropriate—breathtakingly so—where in Cincinnati it probably was NOT appropriate.
The Obama and Biden EPAs used the endangerment finding to justify electric-vehicle mandates and rules forcing the retirement of fossil-fuel fired power plants. Some progressives urged them to go further and regulate CO2 emissions from leaf blowers, lawn mowers and commercial buildings to help eliminate the use of fossil fuels.
Democrats will sue to block the Trump repeal when it’s final, and that would make the Administration’s day. Conservatives have long wanted the Supreme Court to revisit Massachusetts v. EPA, which contravenes its major questions doctrine rulings. Given the enormous economic implications, whether and how to regulate greenhouse gas emissions is for Congress to decide.
I imagine this action is getting little support in editorial rooms across the country. Happy that the WSJ Editorial Board made it their lead.
FBI Director Kash Patel found a trove of sensitive documents related to the origins of the Trump–Russia probe buried in multiple “burn bags” in a secret room inside the bureau, sources told Fox News Digital.
Sources told Fox News Digital that the “burn bag” system is used to destroy documents designated as classified or higher.
Sources told Fox News Digital that multiple burn bags were found and filled with thousands of documents.
Gosh, not burning them sounds like a terrible blunder on the part of the (usually reliable) usual suspects.
So what happened?
A “chain-of-command” issue?
A Fed with a conscience (or whistleblower wannabe)?
Or…just maybe…they didn’t burn them because of the EPA Act….
they didn’t think anyone would get to that backroom
I don’t know.
It could be as simple as a case of the old saw — “if you want a job done right, do it yourself” — dismissed as inapplicable to those so grand as to oversee a conspiracy as vast as all this, with no need to potentially dirty their hands with actual soot!
Or, too much evidence to be disposed of such that they simply ran out of time to accomplish their tasks.
Still dunno. Hope maybe someone diligent gets to the bottom of the story before it’s all been put aside as not worth the candle.
This “find” was actually reported in something like last May, after Patel’s confirmation. Evidently they’ve gone through it and are now preparing to declassify and turn it over to Chuck Grassley in the Senate.
Oh, hello! They’re getting around to removables left for later. It’s later now. (Two of Lois Lerner’s anti-TeaParty IRS minions were cut loose too.) Weeding is good for the government garden.
Sundance’s take on the Durham Annex burn bag files includes:
The discovered Durham annex is now being declassified by the CIA and others and transferred to Senator Chuck Grassley’s staff who will release it to the public momentarily. WATCH the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) response to these revelations, Chairman Tom Cotton, the guardian of the Intelligence Community, will likely demand special counsels be triggered in order to create the “ongoing investigation” defensive shield needed for his benefactors.

Sorry, bad link.
