It is always absurd to forecast the effects of climate change more than a few years into the future. Scientists collect new data and publish results almost daily. Global warming targets get missed, and public policy changes. However, climate change could cost a person born this year a total of nearly $500,000 throughout their lifetimes.
Consumer Reports commissioned a survey which showed, “The costs from climate change could add up to nearly $500,000 for a baby born in the U.S. in 2024 over their lifetime, when you consider the impact on their cost of living and income, if climate change continues to increase at its current pace.” Much of these costs are energy, food, and healthcare.
The study’s areas for improvement include that it is much too early to say whether climate change will cause inflation. The costs of some things, such as real estate, could fall in some of America’s most famous cities and regions. In theory, energy prices could fall if alternative energy ounces become a low-cost reality.

Elections 2024 / Trump slams RFK Jr. in latest social media rant: ‘Wasted protest vote’
« Last post by mystery-ak on Today at 01:17:27 pm » Trump slams RFK Jr. in latest social media rant: ‘Wasted protest vote’
by Tara Suter - 04/26/24 11:06 PM ET
Former President Trump came out swinging against independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Friday, despite weeks of amping him up over his likely November rival, President Biden.
In a series of post on Truth Social, Trump suggested Kennedy was put in the race to help Biden win reelection and claimed his running mate, Nichole Shanahan, is not a serious candidate.
“RFK Jr. is a Democrat ‘Plant,’ a Radical Left Liberal who’s been put in place in order to help Crooked Joe Biden, the Worst President in the History of the United States, get Re-Elected,” Trump wrote, adding “A Vote for Junior’ would essentially be a WASTED PROTEST VOTE, that could swing either way, but would only swing against the Democrats if Republicans knew the true story about him.”
In what seems like a reversal of previous comments, he signaled that he would even take Biden over Kennedy. Last month, the former president touted the long-shot candidate’s campaign as “great for MAGA,” referring to the “Make America Great Again” slogan he often uses.
“RFK Jr. is the most Radical Left Candidate in the race, by far. He’s a big fan of the Green New Scam, and other economy killing disasters,” Trump wrote at the time. “I guess this would mean he is going to be taking votes from Crooked Joe Biden, which would be a great service to America.”
“It’s great for MAGA, but the Communists will make it very hard for him to get on the Ballot,” he added in March.

Crime And Punishment / Media Outlets Are Misrepresenting Crime Stats To Biden’s Benefit
« Last post by rangerrebew on Today at 01:16:40 pm »Media Outlets Are Misrepresenting Crime Stats To Biden’s Benefit
© Tampa Free Press
Two of the federal government’s methods of measuring crime tell two different stories, complicating recent claims from the media and President Joe Biden that crime is declining.
Numerous media outlets have, in recent months, run headlines suggesting that crime is declining across the country. The statistics they’re citing, however, don’t tell the entire story.
The federal government has two ways of measuring crime, the Bureau of Justice Statistics’ National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) program. The former asks around 240,000 Americans if they’ve been the victim of a crime in the last year whereas the latter relies on crimes reported to police in a given year and shared with the bureau.
A gap has emerged between the two measures. More people are telling the Bureau of Justice Statistics that they’ve been victimized, but the FBI is reporting fewer crimes.

Recent findings from King's College London's Policy Institute and Global Institute for Women's Leadership expose a growing gender split among Generation Z regarding feminism and progressive ideas. The Guardian reports that only 43% of young men believe feminism has done more good than harm, signaling a departure from the traditionally progressive image associated with this demographic.

White House: ‘Not Clear’ Israel Can Have Rafah Offensive Plan That Would Satisfy Us

On Friday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan stated that it’s “not clear” that it’s even possible for Israel to have “a credible plan” for an invasion of Rafah that the White House would support.
Sullivan said, “[W]e have made clear that our policy in Gaza will be determined by the steps Israel takes, both with respect to facilitating humanitarian assistance that can save lives, and with respect to civilian protection as it conducts its operations. We have also made clear our absolute deep and fundamental concern about a major military operation in Rafah, because we believe, first, it’s where the aid is coming in. And if you cut that aid off, it makes it more difficult to feed and house people. Second, as you said, it’s where more than a million people are sheltering because they’ve been progressively moved there as Israel has continued its campaign. And it’s not clear to us that there can be a credible plan for where they go to have shelter, housing, medicine, and all of the things that they need. So, we continue to express our concerns publically and privately to the Israeli government. I have dealt with them directly on this issue. And we will continue to do that. I don’t want to get into the details of sensitive diplomatic conversations. I would just say, the U.S. position on this issue remains clear. And Israel understands where we are coming from.”
He added, “[W]e are going to continue to make our decisions based on what he believes is in the best interests of the American people and is most consistent with American values. That is what is guiding him today and it will guide him always through the remainder of this conflict.”
