Just about everyone has had the depressing experience of sitting through a long queue to get concert tickets, only to find when they were ready to check out, the price was 30 to 40% higher because of service fees added by the ticketing company. People often have the same experience when ordering food through an app, only to see a massive service fee applied right before they're ready to place their order. These service fees, known by many as “junk fees,” are popping up everywhere these days, from surprise resort fees charged when checking out of a hotel to a 4% surcharge on a dinner bill that the restaurant added so you can help pay for their employees' healthcare.The good news for people in California is that a new bill will go into effect on July 1st that bans hidden or unexpected fees on everything from concert tickets to cruise packages. Senate Bill 478 (SB 478) makes it illegal for businesses to advertise or list a price for a good or service that does not include all required fees or charges other than certain government taxes and shipping costs.California establishments have been relying on these junk fees for years. A new law passed this year will ban these fees, thank goodness. https://t.co/sH6WcfFcRy https://t.co/2h78DlchMj— Travis (@mcsuggafree) March 4, 2024 “Our price transparency law is about clear and honest communication with consumers so consumers can make the financial choices that are best for them and their families. This new guidance provides information for businesses across California to ensure that clear answers are available, particularly for small businesses,” California Attorney General Rob Bonta said in a statement. “The law is simple: the price you see is the price you pay. Laws work when everyone can comply. I am pleased that we can offer this guidance to help facilitate compliance with the law and make a more fair and level marketplace for businesses and consumers."A 2023 survey of Americans found that 2 out of 3 said they were paying more in surprise charges now than they had five years earlier.The bill is good news for consumers who want to make thoughtful decisions about how they spend their money, especially when inflation has made it a lot harder to stretch a dollar. However, the bill probably won’t make things any cheaper. Businesses most likely won’t stop charging these hidden fees; instead, they will be rolled into the listed price instead of popping up out of nowhere right before you hit the “pay now” button.Not just hotels, airlines & Ticketmaster piling on junk fees.Client had $112.61 Uber fare before tip today to LAX from hotel 20 miles away, reserved last night.Look at breakdown: Over 1/2 cost ended up being fees.Hope CA new "junk fee" law starting 7/1 applies to Uber too. pic.twitter.com/g5u9BZpQuU— Janice Hough (@leftcoastbabe) May 22, 2024 State Senator Bill Dodd from Napa, the bill's co-author, stated its goals: “A consumer shouldn’t discover hidden fees made up by a business when they pay their bill.”As the old saying goes, “As goes California, so goes the nation,” and when companies are forced to alter their pricing and marketing in America's most populous state, it’s bound to create changes for consumers across the country. The new law could be the first shot in a larger war against junk fees.In 2023, President Biden called out Ticketmaster and others who charge "junk fees" in his State of the Union address, claiming he’ll get “rid of junk fees, those hidden fees at the end of your bill that are there without your knowledge.” In his 2022 State of the Union speech, Biden criticized the hotel industry for surprise fees at checkout. "We’ll ban surprise ‘resort fees’ that hotels tack on to your bill. These fees can cost you up to $90 a night at hotels that aren’t even resorts,” Biden said.This Federal pressure led several companies, including Live Nation, SeatGeek, xBk, Airbnb, the Pablo Center at the Confluence, TickPick, DICE and the Newport Festivals Foundation, to make their pricing more transparent.

'I’m gonna homeschool Tucker because I don’t want him to be a communist. I don’t want him to worship Satan. I don’t want him to be gay.' UFC fighter Bryce Mitchell (AKA Thug Nasty) introduced newborn Tucker James to the world on Wednesday, declaring he would not be vaccinating his son or sending him to public school to avoid socialist indoctrination. “Hey, I want to show you all Tucker James,” the UFC featherweight fighter said in an Instagram post. “He’s over 12 pounds now, he’s born at 7.8 pounds. So he’s very healthy. He’s doing very good.” “I wanted to encourage you not to vaccinate your children because I think it’s bad for their health. It could potentially kill them, give them some type of…make ’em autistic. I mean, seriously, these vaccines are poisonous. So don’t vaccinate your kids.” UFC Fighter Bryce Mitchell says he won’t be vaccinating his kid & wants to homeschool him so he doesn’t end up gay and communist pic.twitter.com/UeXqzL0pCF— An0maly (@LegendaryEnergy) May 22, 2024 Mitchell went on to say Tucker would also be raised outside of the public school system saying, “We’re going to have to homeschool our kids or they’re all gonna end up turning gay, you know, and that’s the reason that I’m gonna homeschool Tucker is because I don’t want him to be a communist. I don’t want him to worship Satan. I don’t want him to be gay. I’m gonna have to homeschool.”Power up with Nitric Boost that’s now 40% OFF! This potent formula gives you the massive edge in strength and superior circulation for that unparalleled performance you've been looking for! Mitchell also revealed he refused to let hospital staff draw Tucker’s blood to conduct a phenylketonuria (PKU) test, saying, “I told him I’m not doing a PKU. None of that’s gonna happen. You’re not sticking this kid with a needle.” He continued, “Then they told me that the DHS was gonna come and investigate me, had rights to take the kid, all of this. They threatened me with violence from the government, basically.” “They said, ‘What do you think about that?’ And I said, ‘Well, that’s alright. I’ll be dead.'” “They said ‘What?’ I said, ‘You heard me. I said I’ll be dead. It will be a cold day in hell when somebody comes try to take this baby from me, you understand what I’m saying?” In his Instagram caption, Mitchell wrote: “ill get censored for this one. but i dont care. i love kids and i love the truth. we have to fite for our kids or evil will corrupt the next generation. this country is so evil only God can save us. i was told dhs was gunna come get my kid cause i didnt let the doc stick him with a needle. dont let these threats of violence scare u. be prepared and b happy to die for ur kids. thats wat its gunna take to get our freedom back. remember i just got love in my heart so if sumone twists my words and makes me look like the bad guy, u will kno the real enemy” View this post on Instagram A post shared by Bryce Mitchell (@thugnasty_ufc) The Trump-supporting MMA fighter has previously come under attack from the mainstream media for Biden family’s shady business dealings in Ukraine, and for pushing back against Covid-19 restrictions and mask insanity.

"I’m a U.S. citizen that's basically stranded outside of the country because my wife [a non-U.S. citizen] is being refused an immigration visa." An American citizen is stuck in Japan because his non-citizen wife can’t enter the U.S. without showing proof of taking the COVID-19 jab. Kion, a U.S. citizen who’s been in Japan for over 15 years, reached out to activist TexasLindsay to tell his story. Kion met his wife while studying abroad at a language school in Japan around 2009. “We’ve been married for about 15 years,” he said, “and our visa in Japan runs out next year.” A U.S. Citizen living abroad reached out & asked for help to shine a light on what’s preventing him from legally returning to the U.S. from Japan with his beautiful little family.He’s not alone—this problem is impacting U.S. Citizens & their families around the world. 1/? pic.twitter.com/zl5uqMNzGN— Te?asLindsay™ (@TexasLindsay_) May 22, 2024 “I’m a U.S. citizen that’s basically stranded outside of the country because my wife [a non-U.S. citizen] is being refused an immigration visa,” he said, explaining that they had applied “about 3 years ago, at the start of the pandemic hoping the madness would be over by the time we got the immigration visa.”URGENT! Keep Alex Jones in the fight against the NWO! Please pray & contribute at DefendJones.com today! “I thought that since we were moving back, I should look for jobs in the states, and never expected to be stuck this long,” he added. Turns out the reason Kion’s wife’s visa is being denied is due to the Biden DHS and CDC’s immigration requirement for LEGAL immigrants to show proof a COVID-19 injection within the last 12 months. 6) The reason Kion’s his wife’s Visa is being denied is due to @DHSgov @CDCgov, @CDCDirector’s immigration requirement for LEGAL immigrants to show proof a C-19 shot within the last 12 mos. despite the known risks of harm, as well as knowing its inability to prevent disease. pic.twitter.com/lX20tGuTsH— Te?asLindsay™ (@TexasLindsay_) May 22, 2024 And this despite the experimental shot’s substantial known health risks and its inability to prevent transmission. 8) In Jan. 2023, the CDC Dir. of Immunization Safety admitted C-19 shots can cause "debilitating illnesses” & said “we are aware of these reports of people experiencing long-lasting health problems following Covid vaccination"Yet, DHS & CDC still forces it on LEGAL immigrants. pic.twitter.com/4TnX4uCvw5— Te?asLindsay™ (@TexasLindsay_) May 22, 2024 “The rules are as I understand it. All applicants 6 months or older must get [a Covid-19 shot]. Pregnancy is not an exemption. Flat out refusal of the jab makes you ‘inadmissible’ and your [application] goes in the trash,” said Kion, who also has a 6-year-old daughter. “The only way that I know of to get around the requirement is a religious/moral exemption where you have to ask USCIS for special permission not to get the jab. Which USCIS can turn down completely [depending on] the officer looking at the waiver.” The vaccine requirement policy is even more egregious given the unprecedented amount of foreign nationals entering the U.S. illegally who don’t have to divulge their vaccination status. The policy doesn’t even apply to tourists visiting the U.S. — but why only those with a spouse and children who have a U.S. citizenship? This unjust vaccine gatekeeping is happening to thousands of families worldwide. But there is a solution. It happens Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) last July had introduced HR-4726, a bill that would nullify this asinine COVID-19 vaccine restriction. 16) In order to help remedy this for Kion & his family and the many others impacted—we the people need to call on Congress to pass HR-4726, a bill @RepThomasMassie introduced back in July 2023 that’s now likely sitting on a shelf somewhere.https://t.co/kCzc4dY9eb pic.twitter.com/RSephxFfgK— Te?asLindsay™ (@TexasLindsay_) May 22, 2024 The Biden administration’s nonsensical COVID-19 vaccine requirement for legal immigrants must be immediately lifted, especially given the COVID national emergency measures ended last year and the jab’s well-documented ineffectiveness and health hazards.
