“I was talking to an Admiral. One of the top Admirals. Big guy. Tough guy. Tears streaming down his face. He said to me, “Sir. Sir you have to get our troops out of these dangerous woke electric submarines. We’re electrocuting whales in the ocean with our battery-powered submarines.”

I’m sure his response would start with “they tell me...” and quickly devolve into some rant about mermaids or something.

Its a witch! Burn it!

Someone help me comprehend why people show up to listen to this idiot blather on about nothing policy-related, then go home saying “I feel really good about electing this guy. FJB” WTF is going on?

Donald Trump is an ignorant racist misogynistic bloviating orange windbag who is utterly incapable of speaking a single grain of truth. He is a petulant man-child who whines insufferably and incessantly when things don’t go his way. He cannot accept fault. That he was allowed within 10 miles of the White House at all…

Like the GPS systems and weather reports people are using every day. 

This is just one of ten million examples of the amazing complexity of duties the government performs that get no glory, no PR, no credit but are really important. And yet we have people that want to eliminate the government, it’s boggling.

You are correct but the common name for the larvae of Cochliomyia hominivorax is screwworm.  As the scientific name does not exactly roll off the tongue, I think that we are stuck with the established misnomer.  By the way, as a large animal veterinarian, I often work with and depend on state and federal officials who…

This is one of those instances where the government is truly the best option and it is fun to advertise how successful it has been. It would be a nightmare for any company to take on an international ecological issue and not have it screw over the masses.

I bought on new in 05'. I admit to drving it hard, but mods were mild (intake, stage1, blow off valve). By 95k I had no 3rd gear and the motor was tired. But man would it pull in 2nd when it was still good.

146 in a Neon sounds terrifying.

It’s total bullshit. Trump went through the standard legal process and had a jury trial. It doesn’t get more fair than that. If he was found guilty and was actually innocent in a jury trial, then he has nobody to blame but his own lawyers.

“Bluntly, that’s part of why I’m supporting him. I believe our justice system is being weaponized against him.”

Sacks ... simply wants to “hear Trump out.”

It wasn’t the stimulus. Prices were held down during the pandemic because people weren’t spending for a variety of reasons. They had less things to spend on, less money, and were feeling very insecure about their finances since so many of them were not working. They weren’t driving, so not buying gas. Not traveling or…

This exactly. Biden isn’t perfect, but over the last 3+ years the news hasn’t been insane every single day about chaos inside the White House or executive branch. Listen to audiobooks or read the books of the people from Trump’s own appointees that quit his administration in disgust. Different people, on the spectrum…

As much as I want to be happy about this, I can’t help but think that this will only galvanize his base, reinforcing their undeserved faith that he is the only one that can fix this country... which is complete bullshit. It’s probably just going to make it that much more important that those of us that either support…

While you are partly right, at least when it comes to modern cars the main issue is the myriad of censors everywhere that make repair costs just crazy expensive. There was an article here a few years ago about a Hyundai, I think, that was new but I don’t think brand new, that was totaled by insurance after a minor…

BothSiders are the worst. It’s the clearest black vs white binary choice in election history. STFU and vote Blue. 

if you’re registered head to a poll (and don’t vote GOP), if you’re eligible and not registerered, register asap. No matter what grief you have with Biden or the dems (and many griefs are legitimate) not voting and not voting dem have short and long term consequences that we can not take lightly.
