      TEP is a privately held entity. That is a fact so many don’t realize. They do not care about us, only their shareholders. They can give us all the greenwashing, ebike rebates, and freebies in the mail and events they want, but in the end they double down on data centers and rate hikes. They …

        Americans rely on deposit insurance. Now is the time to fortify it | Bloomberg News

          Banks in the U.S. have plenty to celebrate these days, from record profits and higher stock prices to a strong economy and easier regulation. One thing they don’t need is an added discount on their deposit insurance — a crucial buffer that should be reinforced when times are good.

            Radical greens and other cheerleaders for central planning are mewling about the Trump administration’s new fuel economy standards for automakers. Yet the reforms are a necessary response to Biden-era efforts to undermine the marketplace by limiting options for American consumers.

                        Tim Steller is a busy guy. It's unfair to criticize him for dialing up ChatGPT periodically, especially for a routine column about Ciscomani. What's interesting, Steller wrote about the incumbent on Sunday, not Mendoza. Normally, it's “Vote for me!” Not “Don't vote for him.” Is she any good?…

                          A defining moment from John McCain’s 2008 campaign is being revisited as a reminder of political integrity, highlighting the importance of correcting misinformation — even within one’s own party — in today’s polarized climate.
