The Federal Reserve pointed to the Ukraine war as a reason for the price hikes.
“The news today is yet again the continued realization of the bill is coming due after far too long of big government policies ... in Washington, D.C.,” said Jonathan Williams, chief economist and executive vice president of policy for the American Legislative Exchange Committee. “The cause of all this very painful Federal Reserve action is the fact that inflation, continuing at a 40-year high, with the additional big government spending packages just passed in Washington, D.C.” Mr. Williams said more economic pain is on the horizon “I wish I had better news,” he said. “I’m usually a glass half full economic analyst on these kinds of things, but more pain ahead is what the Federal Reserve is signaling.”

Furthermore, he said, the restaurateur who owns the parklet would be presented with a bill from the city.
The Fed said it will raise interest rates another three quarters of a percentage point and signaled more increases are likely.“The Committee seeks to achieve maximum employment and inflation at the rate of 2% over the longer run,” the Fed said. “In support of these goals, the Committee decided to raise the target range for the federal funds rate to 3 to 33¼% and anticipates that ongoing increases in the target range will be appropriate. In addition, the Committee will continue reducing its holdings of Treasury securities and agency debt and agency mortgage-backed securities, as described in the Plans for Reducing the Size of the Federal Reserve’s Balance Sheet that were issued in May.”

The latest federal inflation data showed that consumer prices have risen well over 8% in the past 12 months. In the last two months, overall inflation has leveled off, but that has been largely driven by an unusual drop in gas prices from the record highs seen earlier this year. Once gas prices stop their decline, the official inflation rate may rise again, especially since prices on a range of goods and services have steadily increased.

Just last week, Gov. Newsom challenged Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to a televised debate shortly after urging the Department of Justice to investigate the conservative governor after transporting migrants to Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts. Prior to that, Gov.

Santa Barbara County Sheriff Bill Brown leads newly promoted staff members as they renew their oath.
The speech was a portion of Gov. Newsom’s visit to New York, where he attended Climate Week NYC and spoke at the Clinton Global Initiative meeting. Throughout his remarks, the governor highlighted the state’s plan to phase out the sale of most gas-powered vehicles by 2035 while also providing insight into California’s current climate woes – “the wets are getting a lot wetter … and the hots a lot hotter.”

Vega Vineyard and Farm started life as Rancho La Vega in 1853 when Dr. Roman de la Cuesta, the first doctor in the Santa Ynez Valley, and his wife Michaela Cota, the daughter of Francisco Cota of neighboring Rancho Santa Rosa, constructed the property’s original 13-room adobe house along the south bank of the Santa Ynez River.Dr.de la Cuesta, known as Don Roman, was born in Spain and arrived in California in 1849. When he married Micaela Cota, he was given Rancho La Vega as part of her dowry (“vega” is a Spanish word that roughly translates to “field” or “meadow”).
Sitting atop one of the highest points of the mountainous parcel of land, a 216-square-foot adobe-style chapel, built in 2014 with pews salvaged from an Ohio church, the chapel is adorned with stainedglass windows and an expansive outdoor patio with endless views of the Santa Ynez Valley.

Judge Terry A. Doughty, on the bench of a U.S. District Court in Louisiana, on Wednesday agreed. He ruled the federal government cannot require Head Start program teachers, staff and volunteers to be vaccinated against COVID-19, nor can it require adults or students to wear masks. His order “permanently enjoins the vaccine and mask mandate in 24 states,” a release
from the Liberty Justice Center says, and impacts 280,000 teachers, staff and volunteers. In his ruling, he wrote, “The public interest is served by maintaining the constitutional structure and maintaining the liberty of individuals who do not want to take the COVID-19 vaccine. This interest outweighs Agency Defendants’ interests. The public has a liberty interest in not being required to take a vaccine or be fired from their jobs. The public interest must be considered before allowing Agency Defendants to mandate vaccines.
“Although President Biden recently declared that the ‘pandemic is over,’ the fight to restore Americans’ individual liberties is not,” Daniel Suhr said Wednesday in the release. He’s managing attorney at the Liberty Justice Center. “We will continue to fight for teachers

She said she would inform them that the 76-year-old Trump, a Republican and the nation’s 45th leader in the Oval Office, and his cohorts adjusted property values to gain favorable rates on insurance policies, loans and taxes.The filing comes 48 days before the midterm elections, where Mr. Trump’s sway or lack thereof in his party is impacting voters’ decisions.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.
