Not that I trust Vladimir Putin. But why can't he be interviewed by an American journalist?

Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson has alleged in a recent interview that unnamed figures in Washington obstructed his attempts to interview Russian president Vladimir Putin.

“I tried to interview Vladimir Putin, and the US government stopped me,” Carlson claimed in an interview with Swiss publication Die Weltwoche published on Thursday. He also explained that he felt let down by the lack of support for his situation that he says he received from US news media.

A funny thing happened in the hen house. The politicians counted their chicks before their eggs hatched.

But the city’s new tax is facing lawsuits questioning its constitutionality, with the possibility that the city may have to pay those funds back after it spends them on eviction defense, income support for rent-burden seniors, rent debt assistance, and more.

Initially, proponents estimated the tax would raise about $900 million per year, but a March report from the City Administrative Office lowered that number to $672 million, The Los Angeles Times reported.

“But once the tax took effect, L.A.’s luxury market froze,” The Times reported. “Only two homes sold for more than $5 million in the month of April, and the market hasn’t quite recovered since.”

Luxury homeowners seeking to avoid the tax have either refused to sell their homes or hired tax specialists to find loopholes, The Times reported.


Rich liberals looking for loopholes? Seriously?

How long before the blue blood dictators take over again?

The dreaded rat lungworm—a parasite with a penchant for rats and slugs that occasionally finds itself rambling and writhing in human brains—has firmly established itself in the Southeast US and will likely continue its rapid invasion, a study published this week suggests.

The study involved small-scale surveillance of dead rats in the Atlanta zoo. Between 2019 and 2022, researchers continually turned up evidence of the worm. In all, the study identified seven out of 33 collected rats (21 percent) with evidence of a rat lungworm infection. The infected animals were spread throughout the study's time frame, all in different months, with one in 2019, three in 2021, and three in 2022, indicating sustained transmission.
