Gavin Newsom tries to hit Trump administration on energy prices — and gets humiliated online
Democrat California Gov. Gavin Newsom tried to criticize the rise in energy costs under the Trump administration — and then was reminded that his state pays the highest costs for power.
In a social media post published Tuesday, the liberal governor tried to blame rising energy prices on President Donald Trump’s global warming skepticism. The governor attended the COP30 climate change conference in Brazil and blasted the administration’s policies.
‘Gavin Newsom and the Democrats have NO credibility on the affordability issue.’
“Utility costs have risen 11% in the last year as Trump has promoted fossil fuels and curbed investment in solar and wind power. Climate change is an affordability issue,” posted the X account for Newsom’s press office.
Critics quickly reminded Newsom that California has little room to criticize national energy prices.
“Electricity cost have risen 64% since 2020 as Newsom has promoted ‘green’ energy and chased away investment in cheap, reliable power. Gavin Newsom and the Democrats have NO credibility on the affordability issue,” replied Corey Uhden, a regional development officer of the California GOP.
“Gavin Newsom is in Brazil touting his failed energy agenda — the same one that’s left Californians paying some of the highest gas and electricity prices in the nation,” replied Rep. Vince Fong (R-Calif.). “After harming our state’s domestic energy production, California now relies on foreign oil — and imports from Brazil have increased to 20% of our imported supply.”
“Gavin Newsom is probably the last person on the planet who should talk about energy affordability. Under his failed leadership California has the highest electricity rates in the lower 48 [and the] highest gas prices in the country,” replied Rep. Ken Calvert (R-Calif.).
The White House piled on through a statement from a spokesperson.
“Governor Newscum flew all the way to Brazil to tout the Green New Scam, while the people of California are paying some of the highest energy prices in the county. Embarrassing!” said Taylor Rogers. “If Gavin News[o]m’s support for the climate agenda was sincere, he would not be attending a climate summit that required chopping down thousands of acres of protected Amazon rainforest for a special purpose highway. It’s time for Newscum and other countries to drop the climate facade!”

Newsom seems to be trying to position himself for the presidential nomination in 2028 by criticizing Trump. When the president won his second election, Newsom declared California the leader of anti-Trump state resistance.
Aside from the cost of energy, California has also been lambasted by critics for mismanagement of the energy grid that has led to deadly and damaging forest fires.

‘He’s not that smart’: Homan lampoons Chicago mayor for pleading with UN to intervene against ICE
Brandon Johnson, Chicago’s Democratic mayor whose disapproval rating is over 60%, joined Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner and other American leftists in complaining to foreign bureaucrats on Friday about the Trump administration’s faithful enforcement of federal immigration law.
After detailing some of the ways that his “sanctuary city” has worked to undermine federal law enforcement initiatives, Johnson stressed to members of the United Nations Human Rights Council, “We cannot do this alone.”
The ‘United Nations is not going to tell President Trump what to do.’
“That is why I call on this council to hold the federal government of the United States to the same standards of accountability you apply elsewhere in the world,” said Johnson, whose city has seen at least 368 homicides already this year. “No country should be above international law. Human rights are universal or they are meaningless.”
When asked about Johnson’s request that foreigners meddle in American politics, White House border czar Tom Homan told “The Big Weekend Show” that it “just proves he’s not that smart.”

“Asking the United Nations to, you know, interfere with ICE enforcing U.S. law is like asking an arsonist how to stop a fire,” said Homan. “The [International Organization for Migration], part of the U.N., helped fund the mass migration during the Biden administration’s four years, spending millions upon millions of dollars helping that … international migration coming to the United States.”
Homan underscored that the “United Nations is not going to tell President Trump what to do. President Trump was put into office on the promise of making this country safe again, on the promise of having the historic deportation operation — that’s exactly what America’s getting.”
‘We live with the consequences of that moral failure every day.’
The border czar noted that in addition to making Americans safer by giving the boot to criminal noncitizens and securing the border, the Trump administration’s clear messaging to would-be invaders that they’re not welcome has also saved the lives of thousands of migrants who might have joined the multitudes who previously died trying to reach America.
In their campaign to protect the people of Chicago from the illegal aliens Johnson is apparently keen to harbor, ICE has caught numerous dangerous criminal noncitizens.
For instance, two days before Johnson’s appeal to the U.N., ICE officers captured Alan Eduardo Garcia, an illegal alien from Mexico whose rap sheet includes arrests and convictions for felony strangulation, domestic battery, disorderly conduct, battery causing bodily injury, aggravated battery against a handicapped or pregnant woman, and unlawful use of a firearm, the agency claimed.
Among the other apparently dangerous foreigners ICE has captured in recent weeks was an illegal alien from Somalia who has convictions for multiple domestic assaults, rape, and multiple DUIs; a convicted murderer from Mexico; and multiple members of the terrorist gang Tren de Aragua.
Johnson suggested that the Trump administration’s refusal to let the U.N. police its actions amounts to a “moral failure,” adding that “we live with the consequences of that moral failure every day.”

The Antifa mob at Berkeley showed us what evil looks like
Something in America’s atmosphere has shifted. A chill has entered public life. The temperature of our moral climate has dropped, and too many pretend not to notice.
Just days ago, outside a Turning Point USA event at the University of California, Berkeley, a mob gathered to protest, riot, shout down students, and mock the death of Charlie Kirk, chanting about his assassination as if it were a punch line.
The world does not need more outrage. It needs more heroes — ordinary people who will stand, speak, and serve even when no one applauds.
It was not a peaceful political protest — it was cruelty on display, a glimpse of how numb parts of our culture have become to basic humanity. You can feel the shift in moments like that — not in policy debates or press releases, but in the tone of the crowd, in the hard edge of its laughter.
A nation in the cold
We all learned Newton’s third law in school: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. It is not just a rule of motion; it speaks truth about reality itself.
Nothing happens in a vacuum. Every act, every choice, demands a response. When Charlie Kirk was killed, the impact of his assassin’s bullet rippled through the soul of a nation. Millions felt it at once, as if something beneath the surface had cracked.
But out of that shock came something extraordinary. Instead of despair, there was revival. People who had not prayed in years began to whisper to God again. Vital questions rose out of grief: What is truth? What is courage? What is my purpose?
The counterforce
What we are seeing now — from Berkeley’s riots to the venom spreading online — is that pushback. It is the equal and opposite force. The lies about Charlie’s death, the hatred masquerading as justice, the growing comfort with cruelty — they are all part of something older, something that has always despised awakening.
The eternal struggle between good and evil has stepped out from behind the curtain and taken center stage. Whether we wanted it or not, we have been written into this story where both light and darkness work through human hands. That means each one of us has a role to play.
What heroism really means
Heroism is not reserved for the famous or the fearless. It is not about applause or recognition. It is the quiet resolve to do what is right when it would be easier to stay silent.
Courage starts small — the parent who refuses to surrender her values, the student who speaks truth in a hostile classroom. These small acts are the foundation of moral civilization.
Courage is a muscle. If you wait for a grand moment to use it, you will find it lacking.
Heroism is giving something of yourself — your time, your voice, your loyalty. It may go unseen, but it is never wasted. The heroes who carry civilization forward are rarely remembered by name. But they are remembered in the lives they touch and in the good they preserve.

Standing when it matters most
We live in an age when fear is constant — fear of loss, fear of exposure, fear of being alone. But fear is not destiny. It is a test. And courage is not the absence of fear; it is acting while afraid. When you tell the truth, when you remain loyal, when you choose what is right over what is safe — that is courage.
The world does not need more outrage. It needs more heroes — ordinary people who will stand, speak, and serve even when no one applauds. This is a dark time, yes. But we should be thankful for it, because in the darkness, we discover who we are meant to be.
You do not need to change the world. You only need to change what stands before you — your home, your community. That is where real heroism lives.
When you feel fear, act anyway. That is courage. That is faith. And that is how light triumphs over darkness.

Woke lecturer cries ‘white supremacy’ after MAGA-racist smear doesn’t go as planned
A nose-ringed Indiana University lecturer is accusing the university of racism for investigating her in-class smear of MAGA as racist.
During a press conference held on Friday by the local chapter of the American Association of University Professors, IU School of Social Work lecturer Jessica Adams claimed that she was barred last month from teaching a “Diversity, Human Rights, and Social Justice” master’s class and from contacting her students after a student filed a complaint over her use of a graphic that suggested “Make America Great Again” is a form of “covert white supremacy.”
‘I feel like white supremacy is actually on full display in the way that my case has been handled.’
According to the graphic Adams provided to the Indianapolis Star, “Make America Great Again” is a form of “socially acceptable” and “covert” white supremacy.
The following are also listed as forms of “covert white supremacy” on Adams’ pyramid:
- “Bootstrap Theory,” the idea that individuals can achieve success through their own efforts;
- anti-immigration policies;
- paternalism;
- “Euro-centric Curriculum”;
- “English-only Initiatives”;
- police killing non-whites;
- “Denial of White Privilege”;
- “Denial of Racism”;
- celebrating Columbus Day;
- “Fearing People of Color”;
- “Expecting POC to Teach White People”;
- colorblindness; and
- the assertion that “we’re just one human family.”
The placement of the different forms of “white supremacy” in the critical race theory pyramid is intended to signal their severity. “Make America Great Again” is located just below the line that separates “covert white supremacy” from “overt white supremacy” — a category that includes neo-Nazis, cross burnings, lynchings, and the KKK.

Adams claimed that while a student had initially complained about the leftist propaganda to Indiana Republican Sen. Jim Banks’ office, the formal complaint was ultimately filed by her dean, Kalea Benner, who allegedly accused Adams of presenting “biased information as fact.”
Evidencing her ideological blinders and apparent antipathy for the school’s administration, Adams, who appears to be white, suggested that the dean of the IU School of Social Work was a racist for questioning the factual nature of the pyramid, stating, “I feel that the assumption that it is not evidence based is rooted in white supremacist ideology. I feel like it’s very much rooted in the assumption that the experiences and the voices of minoritized populations, individuals, communities are not valid. And so I feel like white supremacy is actually on full display in the way that my case has been handled.”
Adams suggested further the critical race theory pyramid was credible since it is used by leftist organizations such as the National Education Association “as a tool for anti-racist and anti-oppressive education.”
A letter from IU administrators indicated the woke lecturer potentially violated Indiana’s intellectual diversity law, reported the Star.
Indiana Republicans passed legislation last year aimed at cultivating intellectual diversity on campuses and in classrooms.
Under Senate Enrolled Act 202, professors and other faculty members at state educational institutions are expected not only to foster a culture of free inquiry and free expression inside the classroom but to refrain from subjecting students “to political or ideological views and opinions that are unrelated to the faculty member’s academic discipline or assigned course of instruction.”
Adams has suggested, however, that she was teaching within her discipline and the scope of the course.
“I was asked to teach on structural racism, and as you teach on structural racism in the United States, you cannot not discuss white supremacy,” Adams said during Friday’s press conference. “It is the ideology that emboldens racist behavior.”
While reportedly removed from the one class, Adams continues to teach three other courses at the university.
Under the IU code, a faculty member could face various disciplinary sanctions, including a written reprimand, a probationary period, a temporary suspension without pay, termination of employment, and/or immediate dismissal.
Banks’ office did not respond to a request for comment from Blaze News.
IU spokesman Mark Bode told WFIU Public Radio that the university does not comment on personnel matters.

Fleetwood Mac’s real breakup story: Death before motherhood
Stevie Nicks has decided to “weigh in” on abortion. In a recent interview with the Center for Reproductive Rights, she described how an unwanted pregnancy — conceived during her years of promiscuity — led to an abortion she now defends as necessary for her career.
You might remember Stevie Nicks. She’s the former Fleetwood Mac singer who chose to end her child’s life to preserve fame and fortune. A few years later, the dysfunctional group fell apart anyway, torn by jealousy and resentment. Nicks sacrificed her child for an illusion of success — and lost it all.
The idols of the 1960s — unrestrained desire, sexual libertinism, and the worship of self — have produced nothing but loneliness, guilt, and moral ruin.
“I got pregnant, how could this be? I have an IUD,” Nicks recalled. “Fleetwood Mac is big, and it would have destroyed the band.” She remembered thinking, “Everybody kept asking, ‘Why won’t someone do something?’ I thought, I have a platform, I tell a good story, maybe I should do something.”
She told a story, all right — a horror story. In her own words, she chose abortion not because her life was in danger but because she feared an awkward confrontation with her ex-lover and bandmate Lindsey Buckingham. “Having a child with Don Henley,” she said, “would not have gone over well in Fleetwood Mac, with Lindsey and me. … It would have been a nightmare for me to go through.”
So a child died to spare a rock star an emotionally uncomfortable conversation.
The moral wreckage of ‘free love’
Nicks’ confession is more than a personal tragedy; it’s a parable of an era. The generation that preached “free love” is now paying the bill. The idols of the 1960s — unrestrained desire, sexual libertinism, and the worship of self — have produced nothing but loneliness, guilt, and moral ruin.
The abortion Nicks defends didn’t liberate her. It enslaved her to a lie — that personal freedom justifies killing the innocent. The band she protected disintegrated. Her fame faded. And the moral emptiness she embraced has followed her into old age.
The irony is that this rebellion against “patriarchal control” delivered precisely what the so-called patriarchy wanted: women stripped of prudence and virtue, persuaded to destroy what men once had to protect. The revolutionaries of “free love” preached empowerment while handing men a permission slip for irresponsibility. Men couldn’t believe their luck.
A real-life trolley problem
Philosophers use the “trolley problem” hypothetical to explore moral choices — sacrificing one life to save others from a runaway trolley. Nicks faced her own real-life version. One track held her child’s life; the other, her fame and comfort. She threw the switch. An innocent child died. Her fame soon followed.
The members of Fleetwood Mac later turned on one another, proof that the god she served — success — wasn’t worth the price.

A reckoning awaits
Jordan Peterson recently refused to entertain a student’s hypothetical about lying to save Jews in World War II, saying he’d never live in a way that forced such a choice. Virtue prevents moral traps before they arise. Stevie Nicks created her own trap through promiscuity and “solved” it by ending a human life.
But Nicks’ reckoning doesn’t end with the interview. Her child’s soul, like all souls, lives on. One day she will face that child — and the creator who gave that child life. When asked why she ended it, her only honest answer will be: for fame, for money, and to avoid a hard conversation.
That conversation will be harder still when she faces God Himself. For her sake — and for those tempted to follow her path — one hopes she repents and seeks the forgiveness found only in Christ, while there is still time.
Newsom’s state ‘caught red-handed’ illegally issuing thousands of commercial driver’s licenses to foreign truckers: DOT
California illegally issued thousands of commercial driver’s licenses, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation.
A Wednesday morning press release from the department claimed that the state’s Department of Motor Vehicles “has admitted to illegally issuing 17,000 non-domiciled Commercial Driver’s Licenses (CDLs) to dangerous foreign drivers.”
‘This is just the tip of the iceberg.’
Those who were issued the allegedly illegal licenses have been notified that those licenses no longer meet federal requirements and will expire in 60 days.
The DOT credited the findings to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s ongoing nationwide audit of non-domiciled CDLs. The review revealed “systemic policy, procedural, and programming errors in California’s non-domiciled CDL program,” the department reported.
“The audit also found that more than one in four of the non-domiciled CDL records sampled in California failed to comply with federal regulations. This includes issuing licenses that extended well beyond a foreigner’s work permit,” the DOT wrote.

The department threatened in August to withhold funding from California if it refused to comply with English language proficiency requirements for truck drivers.
The California Highway Patrol indicated in July that it had no plans to place commercial drivers out of service for failing to meet ELP standards.
In October, the DOT announced that it was withholding $40 million from the blue state.

The DOT stated that it will continue to pressure California to revoke illegally issued non-domiciled CDLs, noting that it is prepared to withhold $160 million in funding for noncompliance.
“After weeks of claiming they did nothing wrong, Gavin Newsom and California have been caught red-handed. Now that we’ve exposed their lies, 17,000 illegally issued trucking licenses are being revoked,” Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy said. “This is just the tip of the iceberg. My team will continue to force California to prove they have removed every illegal immigrant from behind the wheel of semitrucks and school buses.”
Newsom’s office and the California DMV did not respond to Blaze News’ request for comment.

‘Operation Dirtbag’ nabs over 230 criminal illegal aliens — but Noem wants more
As the Department of Homeland Security’s deportation operations continue to clean up our cities and remove illegal aliens across the country, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem took a moment to celebrate a big win in Florida.
On Tuesday, the secretary shared details in a Fox News interview about Operation Criminal Return, or as she liked to call it, “Operation Dirtbag.” The DHS posted a clip of the interview on X.
‘It’s remarkable, and we need to do more of it.’
Operation Dirtbag was so called because of the more than 230 criminal illegal aliens arrested, over 150 of whom were sexual predators, many against children, Noem explained.
“These individuals were sex offenders, but not just sex offenders — they targeted children,” Noem stated.

“These individuals should’ve never been in our country to begin with, and the fact that they were sexual deviants and perverts and now we’ve gotten them off of our streets — it’s remarkable, and we need to do more of it,” Noem added.
Among the crimes committed by these illegal aliens were attempted premeditated murder with a deadly weapon, aggravated battery, sexual assault, sexual battery, lewd and lascivious molestation of children, possession of narcotics, possession of marijuana, possession of a controlled substance, and burglary of an unoccupied dwelling, according to the DHS’ X post.
Secretary Noem expressed her department’s appreciation for Florida’s cooperation in the operations.
“Our kids will be safer. And this partnership with Governor DeSantis in Florida is a model that we want to replicate across the country.”

What a Westerner sees in China: What you need to know
The first thing Westerners notice in China’s Pearl River Delta is the friction, the palpable tension of timelines colliding. Walking through a Hong Kong market, one sees this new social phenomenon written in miniature. A street vendor, surrounded by handwritten signs, accepts payment via a printed QR code. This is not a quaint juxtaposition; it is the regional ethos. This cluster of cities — Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Guangzhou — has been ranked the world’s number-one innovation hub, a designation that speaks to patents and R&D, but fails to capture the lived reality: a place where the old and the new are forced into a daily, unceremonious dialogue.
The story of Shenzhen is the region’s core mythology, a narrative of temporal compression. It is difficult to overstate the speed of this transformation. In 1980, Shenzhen was a small settlement, a footnote. Today, it is a metropolis of over 17 million, a forest of glass and steel dominated by the 599-meter Ping An Finance Center. This 45-year metamorphosis from “fishing village to tech powerhouse” is not just development; it is a deliberate act of will, “Shenzhen Speed” fueled by top-down policy and relentless, bottom-up human energy. Millions poured in, bringing with them an entrepreneurial hunger and a lack of attachment to the past. The resulting culture is one where, as a local observer put it, “nobody’s afraid to experiment.”
Of course, this relentless optimization has a human cost.
This experimental ethos is not confined to boardrooms; it is encoded into the infrastructure of daily life. In this, Hong Kong was the progenitor. Long before the “digital wallet” became a Silicon Valley buzzword, Hong Kong had made the seamless transaction a mundane reality. As early as 1997, its citizens were using the Octopus card not just for transit, but for coffee, groceries, and parking. By the 2000s, there were more Octopus cards in circulation than people.
On the nearby mainland, this convenience has achieved a totality. In Shenzhen and Guangzhou, cash is an anachronism. The QR code is the universal medium, scanned at luxury malls and roadside fruit stalls alike. The city’s nervous system has been externalized, compressed into the super-apps that handle chat, bills, ride-hailing, and food orders. The medium is the smartphone, but the message is speed. This expectation of immediate fulfillment has subtly, irrevocably reshaped social interactions.
Yet the operating thesis here is not displacement, but accommodation. Technology does not simply erase tradition but provides a new container for it. One can visit a Buddhist temple in Hong Kong and see patrons burning incense while making donations with a tap of their Octopus cards. In Guangzhou, the old ritual of yum cha, the gathering for tea and dim sum, persists, even as a diner at the next table uses a translation app. The ancient custom of giving red envelopes at Lunar New Year has not vanished; it has been reborn as a digital transfer on WeChat, and in the process, it has become even more popular among the young. The cultural narrative adapts.

Nowhere is this synthesis of technology and identity more visible than in the region’s public spectacles. The city skyline is not a static sight, but a nightly performance. Every evening at 8 p.m., Hong Kong stages its “Symphony of Lights,” a choreographed ritual involving lasers and LED screens on over 40 skyscrapers. The city itself becomes a canvas, reinforcing its identity as a dynamic, luminous hub.
Shenzhen’s reply is a different kind of sublime, one that looks only forward. The city has become renowned for its record-breaking drone shows, sending thousands of illuminated quadcopters into the night sky to perform airborne ballets. These swarms of light, forming giant running figures or blossoming flowers, are a live illustration of algorithmic choreography. It is a 21st-century incarnation of fireworks, a new form of communal awe that declares, “We are the future.”
In the maker hubs, like Hong Kong’s PMQ or Shenzhen’s OCT Loft, new ideas are built on the skeletons of the old economy. In renovated police quarters and factory warehouses, 3D-printing workshops sit next to traditional calligraphy galleries. This is techne in its most expansive form, fusing high-tech engineering with aesthetic design.
Of course, this relentless optimization has a human cost. The “996” work culture, 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., six days a week, is the dark corollary to “Shenzhen Speed.” The “smart city” that optimizes traffic flow also deploys surveillance and facial recognition. There is a palpable tension between the Confucian ideal of a harmonious, orderly society and the individual agency of 17 million people.
The Pearl River Delta, then, is more than a story of economic success. It is a laboratory for the human condition in the 21st century. It is a place grappling day by day with the paradox of technology: its power to connect and to alienate, to liberate and to control. One future is being prototyped here, in the gesture of a street vendor holding out a QR code, a silent negotiation between what was and what is next.
Mark Levin: Qatar funds terror, shelter killers — now America’s ‘best friend’?
While Mark Levin is one of President Trump’s most vocal supporters, he is concerned about America’s fraternizing with Qatar — a country pitched as “one of the great leaders of the Middle East and the world.”
“I say no, Qatar is a very dangerous country,” says Levin.
He reminds us that in 2002, Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl was brutally beheaded by Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, al-Qaeda’s chief of operations and the architect of 9/11. It was Qatar who sheltered KSM from the FBI — specifically the father of the country’s current ruler, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani.
Further, these same Qatari family members, Levin says, “are the sugar daddies for Hamas” — funding the terrorist organization for years, hosting its leaders, and acting as its political lifeline.
That hasn’t changed. Even though Qatar has been a key broker alongside the U.S. and Egypt in the tiered ceasefire deal between Hamas and Israel, it’s still on Team Hamas, Levin says.
Just last month, Sheikh Tamim delivered an address at the opening session of the 54th annual Shura Council.
He was clear about where Qatar’s loyalty lies: “Israel has violated all laws and norms governing relations between nations through its aggressive actions against the mediator and its attempt to assassinate members of a negotiating delegation. We consider this aggression to be state terrorism. And the global response was so powerful that it shocked those responsible. What’s happened in the Gaza Strip in the past two years amounts to genocide — a term that encapsulates all atrocities. It is regrettable that they remain incapable of enforcing its respect when it comes to the tragedy of our brotherly Palestinian people.”
This is a load of lies, says Levin. “The Israelis weren’t trying to take out the negotiators. They were trying to take out the Hamas leaders that [Sheikh Tamim] was protecting.”
“[Qatar] is [America’s] new best friend,” he laments.
“They’ve gotten into the West,” into “all parties, every aspect of our culture, our educational system. … They are behind the Muslim Brotherhood, Islamic Jihad, Hamas. They supported the Taliban, and they support the destruction of our universities and colleges.”
For Levin, Qatar’s billions and diplomatic handshakes can’t erase its track record. America’s “new best friend” remains a Trojan horse for terrorism and anti-Western ideology.

A Former Agent Makes A Case For Reform At The FBI
