JD Vance says what we all feel.Obviously. I agree that if Ukraine gets no more aid, they can't win the war.
No more aid for Ukraine.
They can't win the war.
Our spending isn't really out of control. It is under the control of the politicians we have collectively elected.
Our country doesn't have a revenue problem, we have an out of control spending problem
Supreme Court to weigh if Jan. 6 rioters can be charged with obstruction
Defense lawyers say prosecutors improperly stretched the law by charging hundreds with obstruction of an official proceeding
In the aftermath of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, federal prosecutors had to decide what charges to bring against hundreds of participants in the pro-Trump mob that disrupted the certification of a presidential election for the first time in U.S. history.
In more than 350 cases, they included a federal charge that carries a hefty 20-year maximum penalty and is part of a law enacted after the exposure of massive fraud and shredding of documents during the collapse of the energy giant Enron.
As of this month, more than 100 rioters have been convicted and sentenced under that statute for obstructing or impeding an official proceeding — in this case the joint session of Congress that convened on Jan. 6 to formally certify Joe Biden’s 2020 victory.
On Tuesday, the Supreme Court will hear oral arguments about whether prosecutors improperly stretched the law by charging people with that violation in the first place.
The court’s decision could have political implications for this year’s election, since Donald Trump — the likely Republican nominee — has made accusations of prosecutorial overreach a core part of his appeal to voters. The case could also directly impact Trump’s own trial for allegedly trying to remain in power after his 2020 defeat; two of the four charges he faces are based on the obstruction statute, and he could move to have those charges dismissed if the Supreme Court rules for the rioters.
There is something wonky about that scope.The photo was on the Navy Times web site, until a marine pointed it out. They pulled the photo.
I agree.
Is it a staged photo-op?
Is the scope backwards?Yes. Which might make the front post look low too.
Trouble is, our idiot governor has decreed that $89 million will be used to build EV chargers throughout the state. A state with grid problems. The same governor is banning use of natural gas for heating and cooking. He also is trying to eliminate ICE vehicles any way he can.And there you have it. The problem isn't with solar or electric. It is with the idiot you guys elected as governor. AND with the idiots that all of us put in the White House and Senate. Yes, WE (the collective WE) elected those idiots.
ah, it's the bureaucrats holding back more electricity getting to homes. Nothing to do with grid capacity, nothing to do with the robustness of the grid (or lack thereof). It's just the bureaucrats.No, you don't got it.
got it.
Nothing wrong with the private sector making money on a new technology that SELLS ON ITS OWN MERIT due to market demand. Not artificially forced profits due to their corrupt symbiotic relationship with GOVERNMENT and the POLITICIANS and bureaucrats that control agencies like the EPA.I'm not the one with the blinders on.
Jeez Joe. Take off the blinders.
Just because you have a place to charge and the money to by an EV, doesn't mean most other people have them. They don't. Most other people live paycheck to paycheck and or need government assistance.Aw gee. You forgot to say "it's for the children".
More generation and more distribution will NOT be built in our lifetime. Not even close. Maybe 50 years and then what will be allowed to power that generation? Solar? HA! Wind? HA!There is currently more power waiting to join the grid than the total being supplied by the grid today, but the regulatory backlog is over 5 years and growing.
EVs only work if you have ready access to an ICE vehicle, have a home charging station and enough money to buy them.That works for me. But I wouldn't have a need for an ICE vehicle too. Although the Bonanza has an ICE.
Then there's still a matter of generation and distribution to support them.That is just a matter of time. It will happen.
How do they dispose of the batteries? It's not just about their manufacture.Recycling old batteries is a legitimate problem. But there are technologies in the works that promise to help with that.
Bottom line, this is all to make the players in the public and private sectors richer and LIMIT TRAVEL.I'm not going to defend the people in the public sector. But what's wrong with people in the private sector developing a technology that will make them richer? But limit travel? I don't think so. If anything, cheaper fuel will enhance travel.
Nope. Just pointing out the hypocrisy. I think you already knew that.I have no reason not to believe that about you, and a few others.
When you examine how much energy is wasted in the manufacture of EV’s and the ecological damage their creation causes, you begin to understand how fake the idiot environmental mental cases have become.I'm going to coin a new word:
They are incredibly dangerous. One of our neighbors’ house burned down a few months ago, the fire department determined it was a battery in a weed eater or the like, in his garage. Just went off, all by itself when nobody was around thank goodness, no one was hurt in the fire. If it had happened in the middle of the night with everyone at home asleep, might have lost more than just their house and all their belongings.Ice vehicles are more likely to catch on fire than EVs. And that is per 100,000 vehicles, not raw numbers.
