SACRAMENTO, California " Phillips 66 announced Wednesday that it will close its Los Angeles oil refinery next year, citing "long-term uncertainty" two days after Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a law clearing the way for new regulations on the state's refiners.

At the time, I was unaware of a full dossier with additional allegations, which led some to accuse the New York Times of withholding that information from me. However, the article clearly stated that it was my "initial reaction" to those allegations, not a complete analysis. Today, I reviewed the complete dossier prepared by Dr. Stefan Weber, whom I have covered before. I also performed a peer review of one of his papers in 2018. With this new information, while I believe the case is more serious than I commented to the New York Times, the overarching points remain. While there are problems with this work, the pattern points to sloppy writing habits, not a malicious intent to defraud. Is it problematic? Yes. But it's also not the wholesale fraud that many have claimed it to be. It sits somewhere between what the two sides want it to be. read more

Biden did that
No he didn't, he didn't build ----.
Trump won by making the population feel there are unfair foreign influences
No he didn't he won because he expressed common sense. What people were seeing vs what the media was telling them.
All Harris and Biden had to do was accept reality, and tell people the truth about what they were seeing.
Secure border? Border county 97% hispanic voted for Trump
Crime down? FBI adjusted their number, and not one county in CA voted against crime bill.
Inflation is Transitory? People saw with thier pocketbooks this was a lie
Everything the Biden/Harris administration and the media said about anything seemed to be a lie.
Just gaslighting and the people figured it out.
Putin gets Ukraine, Netanyahu gets Gaza and Lebanon. China gets Taiwan. What else is there?
