    Disney World’s struggling $5,000 Star Wars hotel slashes prices, cancels summer dates

    The initial buzz that helped fill Disney coffers with galactic credits has turned into a concerning quiet in the halls of the Halcyon — the Star Wars starship at the center of an immersive

    1. Disney World’s struggling $5,000 Star Wars hotel slashes prices, cancels summer dates

      I don’t know what they were thinking. It’s not as if an ordinary vacation there isn’t already expensive enough. Now they are stuck with a white elephant (The Galactic Cruiser hotel) that just doesn’t pencil out as it’s very labor intensive. But this does seem to be Disney’s current theme park strategy, to target the upper middle class.

  3. California Governor Gavin Newsom called for federal energy regulators to investigate a recent hike in natural gas prices that has resulted in sky-high utility bills. Newsom, a Democrat, asked the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission in a letter to look into whether market manipulation, anticompetitive behavior or other activities have driven up the cost of gas in the US West, according to a statement Monday.

    The call for a probe comes after the wholesale price of natural gas in Southern California soared to more than nine times that of US natural gas benchmark futures in December, prompting California utilities to warn of shockingly high bills.

    Why don’t they ask the 30 YO bartender in charge of the green deal?

    1. prompting California utilities to warn of shockingly high bills

      Sounds like par for the course in the Clown State.

      I have to laugh. Prices here are about 50% higher than they were last year and people on NextDoor, including those who always vote D, are screaming bloody murder at the heating bill. Imagine paying 9 times more. $100 last year, $900 this year. Maybe we should rename California “Lil Europe”?

      1. Sky high utility prices and homebuilders keep building low-quality, slapped-together, oversized crap shacks on tiny lots to maximize profits. Imagine paying the heating and cooling bills on a 2,500+ sq. ft. 4 bedroom 2.5 bath sh*tbox, when you only needed (or wanted) a 1,200 sq. ft. 3 bedroom 2 bath bungalow. The RE market has morphed into a greed-infested shit show that has zero benefit to the public.

  4. Cities and states led by Democrats started busing immigrants last year – with some tweaks. In El Paso, the Democratic administration bused more than 13,000 people as of the fall, outstripping buses from the state of Texas in some cases.

    At the time, Mayor Oscar Leeser said he was coordinating with officials in the receiving cities, unlike Gov. Abbott. However, the city stopped its own busing program in October, and the only government-backed bus program there now is run by the state of Texas, according to a city spokesperson.

    Then in December, thousands of people started showing up in Denver on their own. The city set up emergency shelters as temperatures dipped outside. But, it also bought individual bus tickets for 1,900 people, helping them get to 35 states, according to data provided by local officials.

    “It goes along with food and shelter and clothes and toiletries. Those bus tickets are part of this huge humanitarian effort,” says Josh Rosenblum, a city and county spokesperson.
    The politics remain tricky

    Colorado’s Democratic governor, Jared Polis, announced in early January that the state would also charter buses from Denver to other cities. But just a few days later, he halted that program, after the mayors of Chicago and New York asked him to stop.

    In a statement, Polis directed blame elsewhere. “The federal government and Congress, unfortunately, have failed the American people on immigration reform and border security,” he said, while urging the Biden Administration and Congress to set aside funds for states helping migrants.

    Chishti says the busing controversy is a “wake-up call” for politicians, and hopes it will encourage a more coordinated, federally-backed system for helping migrants move around the country.

    You can have a safety net or open borders. But you can’t have both.

    1. News that the City of New York is providing free bus tickets to migrants heading north to claim asylum in Canada highlights an urgent need to address the situation at the border, Quebec’s immigration minister said Monday.

      Speaking to reporters in Montreal, Christine Fréchette called the report “surprising.” She said Ottawa needs to “solve the problem of Roxham Road,” which is an unofficial border crossing south of Montreal used by tens of thousands of people last year to claim asylum.

      New York City Mayor Eric Adams told Fox 5 on Monday that his administration helps in the “re-ticketing process” for people who arrive in the city but want to go elsewhere. He has previously said the city was being overwhelmed with new arrivals, and he has criticized the practice of some U.S. governors who transport migrants straight from the southern border to the city.

      On Monday, Adams told the news station that the city does not push or force people to leave, but some express a desire to move on to other places, including Canada.

      “We found that people had other destinations, but they were being compelled only to come to New York City, and we are assisting in interviewing those who seek to go somewhere else,” he told the news station.

      “Some want to go to Canada, some want to go to warmer states, and we are there for them as they continue to move on with their pursuit of this dream.”

      His comments came after the New York Post reported that some migrants in New York City are being given free tickets to Plattsburgh, N.Y. From there they can travel about half an hour by shuttle or taxi to cross into Quebec at Roxham Road.

      An official with Adams’ office confirmed the city works with community organizations to “re-ticket to help get people to their final destination.” The municipal administration doesn’t treat requests for bus tickets to Plattsburgh any differently than those for other American cities, the official added.

      1. News that the City of New York is providing free bus tickets to migrants heading north to claim asylum in Canada highlights an urgent need to address the situation at the border, Quebec’s immigration minister said Monday.

        It’s like their playing hot potato with the illegals. While they all virtue signal with their “immigrants welcome here” yard signs, the truth is that no one wants the horde of south Americans.

    2. You can have a safety net or open borders. But you can’t have both.

      They know this, hence the bus game they all play. “You take them!”, “No, you take them!”

      I also doubt the bus loads of illegals sent to Denver was spontaneous. Someone hired the buses and told those people to get on, and that when they arrived in Denver there would be free housing, food stamps, etc.

      I can only imagine what went through their minds when they arrived in Dumver when it was below zero (bienvenidos al polo norte!) and they were shuffled into rec centers, to sleep on the floor. No luxury hotels for them.

      Denver started busing them out after they asked the FedGov for financial help to deal with them, and were told there would be no $$$.
