BREAKING: The Federal Reserve leaves interest rates unchanged.

I will never forget 2020. I lost my job. We had a newborn baby and a new house with a mortgage we just moved into. I was so scared. I was desperate and took the only job that was hiring: a lab tech at COVID-19 testing facility. I knew that working with COVID all day would mean I would likely get it. It didn't matter... my family needed me to pay the bills, so I did it. I worked 15 hour days running thousands of PCR tests. I was one of the lucky ones. I had a job. I watched my friends' businesses fail, their savings disappear, asking my if I had any work for them. It was heartbreaking. The people writing those rules never missed a paycheck. They never had to choose between paying the bills and risking exposure. They never had to explain to their children why Mom or Dad suddenly didn’t have a job. Six years later, not one of them has had to explain that math to anyone.

An evacuation order has been lifted following an underground fuel leak in Birmingham. Authorities did not specially name the business but mitigation efforts since Tuesday have focused on the Shell gas station on University Boulevard. al.com/news/2026/07/b…

🚨BREAKING: Democrat Georgia sheriff who supported & took a knee for Black Lives Matter is indicted by a federal grand jury on corruption, extortion and illegal firearm transfers. Alfonzo Williams, the first black sheriff of Burke County, blames “racism” for his indictment.

I can’t get enough of this smug asshole.

@miles_commodore Bomb pop.

What was your favorite thing to get from the ice cream truck?

Wow!!.....and closed with "I hope you'll go home and write that in your diary"

The fight over data centers is becoming one of Alabama's defining political issues. The real debate should be about facts, infrastructure, and transparency, not political messaging.

After the 👂Fauci 👂🎪 maybe this helps cleanse the ole timeline. If and only if you want to zoom in, tell me how many different types of plants are in here. Seriously, I have no clue 😁

What the hell?!

PATH FORWARD FAUCI: @SenRandPaul allegations Fauci authorized or directed the destruction of federal records, a federal crime. Senator Paul "One more time to comply with the law" - Vote next week on contempt - viability Biden preemptive pardon - Fauci leaves hearing, no comment, appeared deflated From AI "Federal records are legally governed by the Federal Records Act under 44 U.S.C. Chapter 33, which dictates that records may only be destroyed through official records disposition schedules approved by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). Unauthorized destruction is a federal crime under 18 U.S.C. § 2071 and 18 U.S.C. § 1519" Your subscriptions @c__Herridge support my independent journalism.

Living in Los Angeles during COVID was quite the trip. Solo paddleboarders being arrested in Malibu w/ beaches closed and police patrolling the sand. Sand being poured into skate parks in Venice. An unelected, non-medical "Dr." Barbara Ferrer calling the shots. Banning OUTDOOR dining, including forcing restaurants to turn their TVs off - then later admitting they had no medical evidence to support it. Vaccine mandates to enter establishments. All while they were falsely inflating COVID-19 hospitalization data in local hospitals to justify the the panic, not differentiating who was hospitalized with COVID, or for COVID. If you broke your leg and tested positive for COVID, even with no symptoms, you were counted as a COVID hospitalization in Los Angeles County. Those numbers were used to impose the lockdowns and strict rules. So many businesses never recovered. Below are a couple photos of two memorable photos I snapped in Santa Monica in March 2020 when the beaches were closed - not a single person was on the sand despite being a beautiful day, and police were actively patrolling the area to make sure nobody was on the sand or in nearby parks. Crazy in hindsight.

The banality - and mediocrity - of evil

Speaking for the American people!

There's the first F bomb in the Fauci hearing.

Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-OH) to Dr. Fauci: “Who the f**k do you think you are?”

If parents are given more educational choices, public schools will suffer. It's an argument that has been repeated by politicians, special interest groups, and education organizations across the country. #Arkansas decided to put that claim to the test. heartlandjournal.com/articles/paren…
