Well, the reality is, it'd be nice to wake up to anything remotely close to good news these days...

May 17, 1943. The crew of the Memphis Belle, one of a group of American bombers based in Britain, becomes one of the first B-17 crews to complete 25 missions over Europe and return to the United States. The Memphis Belle performed its 25th and last mission, in a bombing raid against Lorient, a German submarine base.

Policies leading to a war on fossil fuels, as well as the Russian invasion of Ukraine, will contribute to a food crisis, according to Robert Unanue, president and CEO of Goya Foods. “We are on the precipice of food shortage,” he said.
Russia and Ukraine together produce half the fertilizer used in the United States, and fertilizer prices have quadrupled since the Russian invasion, Unanue told EpochTV’s “Crossroads” program.
However, the fourfold surge in fertilizer prices will affect African and European countries more severely than the United States because the latter is currently more independent with regard to food, he said.
Another big problem, he said, is that it’s planting season in southeastern Ukraine and people are fighting a war. “There’s 2.5 million acres of sunflowers to be planted,” he said. Farmers there will be planting less and yielding less, because of the rising costs and the lack of good yield. “It’s going to send food prices spiraling,” Unanue said.
Both Ukraine and Russia are major producers of the world’s wheat and corn. Together they account for about 29 percent of global wheat exports, 19 percent of global corn supply, and 80 percent of global sunflower oil exports.
In addition, the irrigation systems in southeastern Ukraine have been bombed, and ports have been cut off, Unanue said. Mariupol, a port on the Azov Sea, has already been cut off, and Odesa, a Black Sea port, is the next target.
“That will landlock Ukraine and prevent them from exporting,” he said.
The biggest component of food cost is transportation, and the current war on fossil fuels has made the United States no longer oil independent.

Idiots will think this is a power grab on his part. Smart folks will realize that if the State does not take control of this, it will fall on the three counties Disney encompasses, and the counties do not have the power to compel Disney to honor it's bond debts, resulting in a massive default on their part. Also, with the State taking over, the infrastructure and other related costs go to the State, not the counties. Well played, Ron - you rock star you...

A federal judge is standing by a previous ruling that an Indiana
transgender student must be allowed to use the boys restroom.
Judge Tanya Walton Pratt, an Obama appointee, has denied a motion from the Metropolitan School District of Martinsville to put on hold a previous injunction forcing John R. Wooden Middle School to allow the transgender student to use the boys bathroom.
Pratt ruled the district failed to show evidence that proved it would suffer “irreparable harm” if the student was allowed to use the boys restroom.
“In addition, the School District has not presented any new arguments or evidence to demonstrate that the public interest weighs in favor of maintaining the School District’s authority over such matters until more clear and direct guidance on Title IX is provided.”
The school had previously prevented the transgender student from using the boys restroom, playing on male sports teams, and from being referred to using the pronouns “he” and “him.” The school, which is appealing the original ruling, had argued that Pratt’s injunction “would be disruptive of the school’s operations…and undermine the order and authority of the school.”
