Many parents can’t afford day care centers.
They want a cheaper option: small, in-home day care.
What stops them?
Government rules.
“They are layering on regulations that make it impossible,” says Carrie Lukas of the Independent Women’s Forum. Here’s more from John Stossel, exploring how big government and over-regulation make daycare less available and more expensive.
Wildfires destroyed 13,000 homes in California. Gavin Newsom promised “efficiency” in granting permits for rebuilding.
“Efficiency” must not mean much to him. More than year later, not even 1% of destroyed homes have been rebuilt. Why? “Decades of red tape,” says a survivor. Gere’s more from John Stossel.
Of all the agencies inside USAIDS, few were as repugnant or as malicious as OTI, the Office of Transitions Initiatives. This is the office, run by Fulbright Scholar no less, that organized a full-fledged goon squad of 300+ censors to try to stamp out conservative thinkers, blogs and websites. This is the group that barked out orders to YouTube, Twitter and Facebook to throttle opposition to the Democrats and their leftist malarkey.
Here, Lionel Nation spells out this shocking story of how taxpayers’ money was sidelined to try to scuttle any thinking or speaking outside the scope of what the corrupt Democrats wanted. Former President Joe Biden — the deranged nitwit who never wore a clean diaper in his life — set in motion the bureaucrats who thought they could tell all of us what to think and what we could or could not do.
Everyone who orchestrated this travesty needs to serve time in jails, or face heavy fines and punishments. Likewise, the universities that “facilitated” them — like Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland — need their federal funds slashed.
Elon Musk’s DEPARTMENT OF GOVERNMENT EFFICIENCY is out to slash BILLIONS of dollars worth of wasted American people’s tax dollars. DOGE has already found lots of bureaucratic WASTE, FRAUD and ABUSE.
While the Democratic Party is for They/Them, Donald Trump’s Republican Party is for YOU!! And I made THIS song for YOU! Cheers! 🙂 Here’s more in a parody of Madonna’s “Vogue” from Brian Coyne.
Vice President J.D. Vance set the world straight on Friday when he addressed European Union bureaucrats at the Munich Security Conference in Munich, Germany. The “commissars,” as he labeled them, pretend to promote democracy, but their anti-freedom policies betray their people. He scolded them for relying too heavily on the United States to handle their defense against Russia or other adversaries.
Let’s take a look at the speech and the reaction—plus next steps with Ukraine and Israel. Here’s more from Lori Colley.
The staggering examples of government inefficiency being uncovered by DOGE continue, including a literal mine full of paperwork. And Bridget’s take on the White House/Associated Press showdown over the Gulf of Mexmerica. Here’s more from Bridget Phetasy.
One of the biggest boxing matches in more than a decade happened between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul on Netflix—and everyone who was anyone seemed to be there to watch. With the fight came many people claiming it was rigged, with proposed evidence to prove it.
So this Edge of Wonder Live is a Battle of the Beard Debate: Both Ben Chasteen and Rob Counts have their own opinions, with Ben saying it was rigged, and Rob thinking Jake Paul was being respectful. Hear and see the evidence tonight, and then YOU decide who you agree with.
Either way, during the fight while no one was paying attention, the Pentagon quietly announced that over $2.4 trillion was lost … or rather, “misplaced.” See where our tax dollars really go, the ridiculous studies into which millions of dollars have been poured, and how much money the government is spending every second. Join Ben and Rob on this Edge of Wonder Live.
Good news, comrades! This year the Ministry of Toothbrushes will not only meet its production quota, but exceed it! And what’s more, the technocrats have devised the one and only toothbrush that you will ever need (or be allowed to purchase)! . . . But some are questioning whether government is needed to produce toothbrushes at all. Let’s nip that heresy in the bud, shall we? Here’s more from The Corbett Report.
Politicians call food trucks “unfair competition” for restaurants—smother them with regulations.
For some entrepreneurs, they’re a great first rung for entering the food industry. Here’s more from John Stossel.
