SACRAMENTO, Calif. — As he vowed to do on X , U.S. Rep. Kevin Kiley, R-Calif., on Wednesday announced he is introducing legislation to eliminate federal funding for the California High-Speed Rail Authority, which seeks to build a high-speed rail line from Los Angeles to San Francisco. The line would start with the much more modest route of Merced to Bakersfield. The project has already spent around $6.8 billion in federal dollars and is seeking an additional $8 billion from the U.S. government. Kiley’s bill would make the California high-speed rail project ineligible for any further federal funding. Kiley is working in tandem with billionaires Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, both of whom were tapped by President-elect Donald Trump to co-chair a Department of Government Efficiency. The DOGE, as they are calling it, isn’t really a department, and any recommendations they make would have to be approved by both Trump and the GOP-controlled Congress, but it does have a goal to eliminate vast swaths of federal spending and bureaucracy. In a statement Wednesday, Kiley called the California high-speed rail project a failure due to “political ineptitude,” and added that “there is no plausible scenario where the cost to federal or state taxpayers can be justified.” “Our share of federal transportation funding should go towards real infrastructure needs, such as improving roads that rank among the worst in the country,” he said. Kiley sits on the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, which is controlled by Republicans who long have been critical of the project. Should Kiley’s bill pass the House, it would also need to be approved by the Senate, where Republicans hold a 53-seat majority, and be signed by Trump. That’s likely to be difficult, though, because it would probably take 60 votes to limit debate and both of California’s U.S. senators are Democrats. The Sacramento Bee has reached out to the California High-Speed Rail Authority for comment. In a previous statement to The Bee, authority spokesperson Toni Tinoco said that the agency “continues to make significant progress.” Tinoco pointed out that the project has been environmentally cleared for all but 31 miles between L.A. and San Francisco, making the project “shovel-ready for future phases of investment.” Tinoco also pushed back against statements by Kiley and the DOGE about how the project has been beset by both delays (it was initially estimated to be complete by 2020) and massive cost overruns (ballooning from an initial cost estimate of $45 billion to as much as $127.9 billion). “It did not account for inflation or any unknown scope, a lesson learned as our estimates now account for inflation and project scope, helping explain cost difference,” Tinoco wrote. ©2024 The Sacramento Bee. Visit sacbee.com . Distributed by Tribune Content Agency, LLC.It would appear that Bill Belichick is heading to the college game after all. The legendary head coach is reportedly filling the vacancy at North Carolina, per multiple reports, after rumors had linked him to the Tar Heels for the past week. According to Ralph D. Russo of The Athletic, the deal is for three years and worth $30 million. And that had fans and pundits alike at the NFL and college levels fairly stunned: There are countless questions about the fit between Belichick and North Carolina. How will a coach who worked in the NFL for parts of five decades adjust to the college game or the demands of recruiting? Will his coaching methods translate with kids in the same way they did with professionals? Will North Carolina be able to compete with other major football programs on the NIL front, given the resources that go to the men's basketball team? There's no doubt that he's a major splash as a hire, and his name-brand appeal and the pedigree of being a six-time champion as an NFL head coach should aid in recruiting. More than likely, he'll delegate many of the recruiting obligations to his staff, instead focusing on program-building and Xs and Os. During an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show earlier in the week, he laid out his vision for leading a college program. "If I was in a college program, the college program would be a pipeline to the NFL for the players that had the ability to play in the NFL," he said. "It would be a professional program—training, nutrition, scheme, coaching and techniques that would transfer to the NFL." Belichick now becomes the most intriguing and high-profile college coach outside of Deion Sanders. While it's unlikely he'll turn North Carolina's sideline into a celebrity sighting bonanza like Colorado, the Tar Heels are now a team to watch going forward, if only to see if Belichick can come anywhere close to replicating his NFL success.50jili online casino 。

No one was injured in the break-in, but the home was ransacked, according to a report provided by the Hamilton County Sheriff's Office. Deputies weren't immediately able to determine what items were stolen. A person who is employed by Burrow arrived at the Anderson Township home Monday night to find a shattered bedroom window and the home in disarray. The person called their mother, and then 911 was contacted, according to the report. Deputies reached out to neighbors in an attempt to piece together surveillance footage. “Our investigators are exploring every avenue,” public information officer Kyla Woods said. The homes of Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce were broken into in October. In the NBA , Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis had his home broken into Nov. 2 and Minnesota Timberwolves guard Mike Conley Jr.'s home was burglarized on Sept. 15 while he was at a Minnesota Vikings game. Portis had offered a $40,000 reward for information. Both the NFL and NBA issued security alerts to players after those break-ins, urging them to take additional precautions to secure their homes. In league memos previously obtained by The Associated Press, the NFL said homes of professional athletes across multiple sports have become “increasingly targeted for burglaries by organized and skilled groups.” And the NBA revealed that the FBI has connected some burglaries to “transnational South American Theft Groups” that are “reportedly well-organized, sophisticated rings that incorporate advanced techniques and technologies, including pre-surveillance, drones, and signal jamming devices.” Some of the burglary groups have conducted extensive surveillance on targets, including attempted home deliveries and posing as grounds maintenance or joggers in the neighborhood, according to officials.
