In preparing for the latest round of new additions to its solar generation assets, Dominion Energy Virginia rejected eight privately- developed projects which were substantially cheaper than the projects it wanted to build on its own with ratepayer money.
Bursting The St. Paddy’s Day Bubble
Far be it from me to throw cold water all over your St. Paddy’s Day plans, but if you’re planning to get drunk or gorge on corned beef and cabbage today your American is showing.
UVa, like other higher-ed institutions, is a strange beast. Its rules of governance are unlike those of government, or corporations, or charitable organizations. UVa is more like a feudal institution.
Like Dirty Clothes? Biden’s Got You Covered!
Perhaps you heard. Biden’s Energy Department - the same crowd of maniacs who wanted to ban gas stoves - now wants to outlaw our current washers and bring in low-flows. Green washing machines that use less energy.
Clothes don’t get clean but they use less water and energy than traditional washing machines and are better for the environment!
Not A Bank Bailout?
In essence, the FDIC is breaking its own rules to bailout woke tech and Chinese startup companies that found it easier to bank with SVB than at other, larger institutions.
Be Careful Out There: Daylight Saving Time
Experts say some of us could die from heart attacks or strokes in the next couple of days. Others will get in car wrecks. Students will do poorly on tests. But if we're careful – and remember to eat breakfast – most of us will survive.
Black Students Disappearing from Classrooms Disproportionately in Ten of our Largest School Divisions
Without even bringing up school quality, this is unacceptable if we care about the futures of Black kids.
We have to get them in school. I say “we” because it will be a long-term disaster for both these children and Virginia if we don’t.
I expect the usual suspects will seek to obfuscate what this program so clearly is: government discrimination on the basis of race/ethnicity.
Southern Domination and Beaver Nuggets.
A Buc-ee’s Travel center is coming to Virginia. I’ve heard about this Texas-based chain and its cult-like following, but I’ve never been to one. They’re not truck stops, they’re “one-of-a-kind destinations.”
International People Who Identify As Women Day And There Is No Crying In Politics
Have we ever elected a president who admitted to uncontrollable spells of weeping? Is this what we’re looking for in the next Leader of the Free World, a crybaby?
Soft-On-Crime Va. Democrats' Offal Proposal
It’s worth noting that this odious proposal had the support of a gaggle of influential Richmond Dems who twitch with excitement every time they encounter a bill that favors the felon over the safety of the public .
Tucker Carlson And Those Tapes
It is possible to believe that the riots at the Capitol didn’t in any way compare to the attacks of Pearl Harbor or 9-11 and certainly weren’t “the greatest threat to democracy since the Civil War” while also believing that Americans should not interfere with the certification of elections nor should they riot when they don’t like the results of the vote. We don’t live in a banana republic.
Virginia Beach: Hang Onto Your Wallets
Don’t let them gaslight you: Property taxes are nothing but a wealth tax.
Norfolk’s 2022 homicide total, 63, was the highest the city had seen since the mid-1990s. In 2021, there were 62 murders. From 2012 through 2019, the city suffered between 29 and 43 murders annually.
Jillian Balow, Virginia’s top K-12 school official, has submitted her resignation effective March 9.
Putting Victims First. For A Change.
Who would vote against such a common-sense, pro-victim bill that passed both houses of Virginia's General Assembly overwhelmingly? Newly elected Democrat Sen. Aaron Rouse, who represents the 7th District that includes parts of Virginia Beach and Norfolk, that's who.
Biden’s Taxpayer-Funded Campaign Stop
From one end of Virginia’s largest city to the other, traffic was gridlocked. Businesses lost money, appointments were missed and untold gallons of gas were wasted as fuming motorists stewed in traffic, unsure of what was going on.
A nuclear attack? A massive 100-car-pile-up? Fugitives on the loose?
Nope, just the president on a hasty trip to Virginia Beach to rant about how the GOP wants to slash spending on health care.
No Such Thing As Student Loan "Forgiveness"
The Biden administration isn’t attempting to “forgive" student loans. What Biden wants to do is transfer that debt to taxpayers. It’s a naked attempt to pander to younger voters by wiping out their college loans. Whether they need help or not. Freebies!
Covid Was Cooked Up In A Lab? Who Knew? (Many Of Us).
Frankly, the most frightening aspect of the covid pandemic was watching the American media and social media organizations join hands with government in an attempt to quash any theories about the virus or potential treatments that lacked the CDC stamp of approval.
