CALIFORNIA BANS GOVERNMENT PURCHASES OF MOST GAS-POWERED CARS UNDER NEWSOM CLIMATE ORDER:

California state government on Friday stopped buying gas-powered sedans as part of Gov. Gavin Newsom’s administration’s efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

The directive by the state’s Department of General Services, which oversees purchasing and contracts for California state government, exempts public safety vehicles.

Sad! Why shouldn’t the CHP be driving Priuses as well? As Jim Treacher asked in September when a Fremont, CA “Tesla Electric Cop Car [Ran] Out of Juice While Chasing Bad Guy,” “The police are supposed to protect and serve. But what’s the point of protecting and serving the public if you’re not protecting and serving Gaia? It’s good to stop crime, but there won’t be any crime at all if everybody gets killed by the weather. That’s why I’m glad to see police departments switching to electric cars. Unlike those dirty gas-burning cars, electric ones are powered by… magic, I think? Goodbye, boys in blue. Hello, guys in green!”

A WEAK CIVIL SOCIETY BREEDS THIS SORT OF THING: The generator mafia in Lebanon. “Nakhle, an official in the Energy Ministry, was admitting that the generator mafia bribes Lebanese politicians to make sure that EdL stays weak and blackouts persist.”

IS IT TIME FOR ‘RESTITUTION-BASED IMMIGRATION REFORM’? Bruce Ashford is Provost of the Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, and his proposal comes out of a resolution approved by the Southern Baptist Convention. Step one is no amnesty.

NEVERTHELESS, SHE PERSISTED: Elise Stefanik Hits a Nerve with Democrats.

Why is the left such a cesspit of sexism?

QED: Our ‘moral betters’ like Joan Walsh and Chrissy Teigen show us who they really are in tweets to Elise Stefanik (screenshot).

UPDATE: The Knives Are Out For Elise Stefanik.

As  Erielle Davidson of the Federalist tweets, “Nothing angers a Leftist more than a strong GOP woman. Two reasons: it shows the Left doesn’t really care about ‘supporting all women’ (lol) and it derails their narrative that the GOP is anti-woman (it’s not).”
