Tesla CEO Elon Musk ripped into California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom after Newsom proposed a move that would shut out Tesla from customer rebates offered to other electric car manufacturers. On Monday, Newsom announced that if President-elect Donald Trump eliminates a federal ZEV tax credit, Newsom would propose creating a new version of California’s Clean Vehicle Rebate Program, which expired in 2023. Newsom’s “office told Bloomberg News that the current proposal includes market-share limitations that would exclude Tesla’s popular EV models,” Bloomberg News reported, adding that Newsom’s office stated, “It’s about creating the market conditions for more of these car makers to take root.” “This is a slap in Tesla’s face,” Gene Munster, managing partner of Deepwater Asset Management, commented. “Even though Tesla is the only company who manufactures their EVs in California! This is insane,” Musk blasted on X. Even though Tesla is the only company who manufactures their EVs in California! This is insane. https://t.co/EhVeG2TYqT — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) November 25, 2024 “Tesla’s models do qualify for the federal credit, which was introduced as part of President Joe Biden’s signature climate bill, the Inflation Reduction Act,” Fortune noted. CHECK OUT THE DAILY WIRE HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE In May 2020, Musk threatened to leave California after shelter-in-place orders forced him to shut down his sole car factory in the United States. In mid-May 2020, he indicated how fed up he was with California’s leftist governance, apparently urging followers on Twitter to join the conservatives of America, as he famously tweeted, “Take the red pill.” Take the red pill ? — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) May 17, 2020 In December 2020, Musk revealed he had left California and moved to Texas. Musk’s move came after months of openly criticizing California’s response to the COVID pandemic. At the end of April 2020, speaking on a Tesla earnings call, Musk ramped up his rhetoric about shelter-in-place orders around the nation, calling them “fascist.” Musk stated, according to The Verge: We are a bit worried about not being able to resume production in the Bay Area, and that should be identified as a serious risk. The expansion of shelter-in-place, or as we call it, forcibly imprisoning people in their homes, against all their constitutional rights, is, in my opinion, breaking people’s freedoms in ways that are horrible and wrong, and not why people came to America and built this country. What the f***! He continued: “If somebody wants to stay in the house that’s great. They should be allowed to stay in the house and they should not be compelled to leave. But to say that they cannot leave their house and they will be arrested if they do… this is fascist. This is not democratic. This is not freedom. Give people back their godd**n freedom … Everything people have worked for all their lives is being destroyed in real time. I think the people are going to be very angry about this and are very angry.” In July 2024, Musk pronounced that Newsom’s “career is over.” In mid-July, Newsom signed into law AB 1955, which barred school districts from alerting parents of their children’s sexuality or if they used pronouns or had adopted gender identities that conflicted with those on their school records. Musk recalled that he had warned Newsom  in 2023 that if the law were passed, it would force families and companies to leave California “to protect their children.” Musk announced that he would relocate his companies out of the so-called Golden State in response to the passing of AB 1955, tweeting, “This is the final straw. Because of this law and the many others that preceded it, attacking both families and companies, SpaceX will now move its HQ from Hawthorne, California, to Starbase, Texas.” This is the final straw. Because of this law and the many others that preceded it, attacking both families and companies, SpaceX will now move its HQ from Hawthorne, California, to Starbase, Texas. https://t.co/cpWUDgBWFe — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 16, 2024 He added, “And X HQ will move to Austin. …Have had enough of dodging gangs of violent drug addicts just to get in and out of the building.” Have had enough of dodging gangs of violent drug addicts just to get in and out of the building — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 16, 2024 Newsom then mocked Musk, claiming he “bent the knee” to then GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump with his support. That prompted author and journalist Michael Shellenberger, a foe of the environmental movement who also challenged Newsom in two gubernatorial elections, to fire, “You took the most beautiful state and made it the ugliest. You increased homelessness by 40%. You let addicts die on the street. You unleashed violent crime. Now you’re trying to medically mistreat children. You’re the worst governor in our state’s history. Resign.” Musk then offered his succinct conclusion to the episode, writing bluntly, “Gavin’s career is over.”

Staunchly conservative Argentinian President Javier Mieli, already forcefully revamping the ravaged Argentinian economy toward economic success, has added an effort to address men in women’s prisons, asserting he will ban it from Argentina. On Tuesday, Milei stated, “Speaking of prisoners, I’ve got a little scoop for you. Recently, we’ve seen cases of criminals using the gender identity law to claim they’re women who should be in women’s prisons. They do this to exploit female inmates or continue their business in more relaxed conditions. Just last week, we learned that the Moros gang leader filed 10 habeas corpus to change his gender and receive male visitors. Only in a country with deeply distorted values could such absurdity be allowed.” “That’s why we’re putting an end to this nonsense,” he declared. “We’re going to ban it. Criminals won’t be able to request prison transfers under gender identity and we’ll push for provincial prisons to adopt this policy. Those who don’t comply will only reward criminal creativity and disrespect crime victims.” The Argentine president said today at an event that gender changes carried out by criminals in prisons will be prohibited, since they do it to take advantage of the law, and continue committing crimes. @libsoftiktok pic.twitter.com/F3WflrBekZ — El fenómeno barrial (@mileibarrial) November 27, 2024   Last April, Milei said he wanted to sell off Argentina’s prisons built in residential areas. “We are thinking of selling those prisons to real estate companies and for those companies to fund the construction of a new one far away from the city … (the jails ) would have better security, higher quality, better services, would be bigger, and [would be built] without spending a single penny.” CHECK OUT THE DAILY WIRE HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE “An exchange-traded fund tracking Argentine stocks saw record inflows as Wall Street embraces President Javier Milei’s efforts to quell inflation and reverse years of endemic budget deficits,” Yahoo Finance reported, adding that the ARGT “absorbed $144 million of inflows for the week that ended on Nov. 22, with $88 million coming in on Friday alone, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. …  The fund … saw assets jump roughly seven-fold from $104 million when Milei took office to some $750 million on Monday.” “Milei hasn’t just talked the talk, but is actually walking the walk,” said Malcolm Dorson, senior portfolio manager at Global X Management, which manages ARGT. “He has trade balances, he has built a fiscal surplus, inflation is ticking down, and economic activity is picking up.”

Parents on TikTok frequently post videos of their kids doing cute or silly things. Most commenters respond by saying, “Awwww, what a cutie-patootie ” or making equally flattering remarks. That wasn’t the case when Jessie Ceniga posted a video of her baby with a full head of hair. What happened in the comments section is pure comedy gold. @jessicajudithhh definitely will be doing again #teethinghacks #teethingbaby #6monthsold ♬ original sound – Jessie Ceniga The video is unusual for a couple of reasons. First and foremost is Jessica’s baby son, who has a full head of hair. Second is how serenely the baby is while eating a raw onion. Yes, you did read that correctly. Jessica heard that green onions can be a good anti-inflammatory for teething. The experiment was a success and Jessica said it works better than anything else she has tried. Now that you know the basics, run (don’t walk) to the comments section. Many comments stated they recognized this little guy from the local used car lot. One person’s grandpa, rest his soul, had coffee with this baby and his full head of hair Saturday morning for 15 years. The hilarity does not stop. Image from TikTok. We tried to read all the comments and replies, but that is a deep rabbit hole that would take three or four days and a new eyeglass prescription. With his full head of hair, this baby already has a bowling average of 205 and a collection of leather jackets that rival the Fonz. He had a starring role in “Wayne’s World” and might be hiding a pack of Winstons in his shirt sleeve. Image from TikTok. If you want more of this adorable little guy, follow his mom on TikTok. The hair is bound to get even better as he grows up! Please share. You can find the source of this story’s featured image here.

If you are planning to build a garden, install a pool, a lawn space, a playground, or other backyard projects, you will need to consider all of these before choosing a property.   Nearby Areas 2. How close is the nearest neighbor? This is important for safety and security purposes. Whatever happens, you can have someone to help you immediately. 3. What are the nearest town and large city and their population? How far is it away? It is also important that you know the nearest town and city of your prospective property. If you are planning to own a property, you'll want it to be situated in a place with a town or city around so you have access to basic needs.   Weather Conditions 4. What is the county's average precipitation? If you're looking for a property, you must also do research regarding the county's annual precipitation. Know the averages of annual rainfall as well as snowfall range. This is to prepare your property and your family for any weather conditions. 5. What is the average snowfall yearly? If you hate the cold weather, you don't want to stay in a place with high snowfall range, so considering this question is really important in finding the right property. Also, consider this question if you're planning to grow crops and other plants. 6. What are the average temperatures in January and July? Wherever you want to invest a property, you must know the weather conditions in each month so you're always be prepared.   Growing Plants 7. How long is the average growing season? A growing season is the period of the year when plants and other crops grow successfully. Growing season varies from different place depending on the plant or crop. Most crops need at least 90 days to grow fully. So, if you have the plan on growing crops, this question should be considered. 8. What is the area's plant hardiness zone? Determine which crops or plants are most likely to thrive at a location. Do this by using the 2012 USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map.   Legal Right Of Way 9. Is there a legal right of way to the land? If yes, are there documents to prove it? Make sure the property has a legal right of way and, most importantly, the documents that validate its effectiveness. It should entitle you an easement and a privilege to pass over the land of another.   Access To Utilities And Services 10. How far is the nearest county-maintained road? Knowing the accessibility of the roads near your prospective property is very important so don't forget to keep this question in mind. 11. Is there a power source on the property and if not, how far away is the nearest? A power source is something you shouldn't take for granted in finding the right property. It's a necessity. If ever the property doesn't have any, you should at least know the distance to the nearest power source. 12. Is there telephone access on the property and if not, how far away is the nearest? Is the cell phone signal good on the property? Who doesn't use telephone and cell phone, right? Communication is essential, so an excellent signal is a must when choosing the perfect location for your property. 13. Does 911 operate in the area and if yes, what is the required information? If just in case you encounter fire, an accident, or if something untoward happens at your location, you may feel quite secured knowing that 911 operates in your area. You should be aware of this important matter as your safety depends on it. 14. What is the county extension office's and the county clerk office's phone number? These offices can assist and help you with your concerns regarding agricultural matters, as well as with administrative functions and public services. Knowing their contact numbers will make establishing your stay easier and hassle-free.   Other Rules And Regulations 15. Are there any laws in the area on subdividing the land? Always check if there any laws in the area regarding subdividing the land. Legal provisions are always ideal to avoid the hassle and to lessen disputes and problems. 16. Are there any covenants (e.g. prohibition on building outbuildings) that apply on the property?Are there any zoning laws that apply to the area? Zoning laws are laws that dictate how a property can and cannot be used in a certain area. These limit commercial use of land.   Government-Related 17. Does the government require building permits and are government-sanctioned inspections required? Government-related issues are one of the most important things to consider when owning a property. If you have the plan of building an establishment, you need to submit every document required by the government. 18. Who owns the rights for timber, water, and minerals from the property? In finding the right property, you need to establish a harmonious relationship with the realtor or the owner. Make sure to settle the deal on the first phase of the agreement. Things such as the rights and ownership for the timber, water, and minerals must be considered to avoid misunderstanding that can lead to a more serious case.   Land Assets 19. Has the land title been checked and cleared? To make sure everything is fine regarding your property, make sure to check if the land title has been cleared. You don't want to meet issues and problems at the end. Be mindful of this matter before you draw money for a certain property. 20. Is there surface water on the property? If yes, how far is it from the building site and how many gal./min. and total fall is on the property (ft.)? If you have kids and are planning to live in your prospective property, don't skip checking if there's a surface water around. If there's surface water near the area, ask the realtor or make an effort to know how deep the water is. If you think the surface water is unsafe for your kids, might as well look for a safer place to live in. 21. Has the property passed a percolation test near the building site and has it been logged? If yes, when and was it clearcut or selective? A percolation test is a test to determine the water absorption rate of the soil. Make sure the property passed the test in preparation for the building of a septic drain field. 22. How much of the property is timbered and how much is clear? If you want a modern type of property, checking its physical features is something you'll want to prioritize. Timbered buildings look way older than those already cleared. 23. Does fruit grow in the area? If yes, what kind? Is there a mature orchard on the property? If you're a farmer or a gardener, knowing what fruit grows in the area is really important in finding the right property. Check if there's a mature orchard to restore and start managing again.   Terrain 24. What is the property's terrain (e.g. rolling hills)? If hilly or steep, on which side of the mountain is the property located? If you're looking for a property situated in the mountains, make sure to know its physical features. Learn carefully which side is steeper or which area is hilly. This is important for you and your family's safety.   Microclimates 25. What kind of microclimate is present in the area?

After a house fire leaves a dog burned, a man was arrested in connection to the fire that happened in Riverside, Brooklyn on Sunday, November 17. According to Jacksonville Fire and Rescue Department (JFRD), when they responded to the home at around 3:00 AM, no one lived in the home, so no one was hospitalized due to the fire. While they are still looking into the cause of the house fire, a JFRD spokesperson reveals that it’s being investigated as an arson case and a suspect is already in custody. Maris Johnson, who lives at the apartments across the street from the home, tells First Coast News, “This morning when you came through, all you see is smoke all throughout the area.” She also said that she’s relieved that the fire didn’t seem to impact any of their neighboring units. While there were no hooman casualties, the JFRD spokesperson told First Coast News that they pulled a dog from the fire and was, thankfully, able to revive it. The spokesperson says that the Department believes that the dog belonged to the suspect, so he could also be facing animal cruelty charges. “As a pet owner, dogs can’t fend for themselves, so it’s like, ‘Dang, did you really leave a dog there next to a fire?’ So, it’s definitely good someone found the dog.” The dog had visible burns on the side of its mouth and also had plastic burns on its body. According to News4Jax, a woman who lives near the house that went on fire, Tracy Russell, tended to the dog, along with two other women. The news outlet also reveals that the dog has been taken to animal control to be taken care of. First Coast News also reports that while their crew was at the scene, a man stopped by, claiming he maintains the property for the owner. The man said the homeowner hasn’t lived their in a few years.
