Oh, please do tell us how USAID is propping up Jalopnik, for fuck’s sake.

Well there is a VERY big fucking difference between what happened with Bob Menendez and literally every single Republican, including their current president. See- we had no problem with Menendez getting caught. We have no problem if he gets prosecuted, sentenced and sent to federal prison.

But Republicans? ALL of…

“Democrats punish the corrupt, Republicans just consider themselves exempt from the laws”

Basically yeah. With Biden they cried they can’t afford to live because of inflation... even though inflation returned to normal and wages had started to outpace inflation.

Experts questioned whether the move to rework guidance and rescind funds was legal

Both Houses of Congress are controlled by Republicans, and you know they’re not going to stop Drumpf. What exactly are the Democrats supposed to do from the minority seats? They can file lawsuits, but Republicans also control the SCOTUS, so there’s no guarantee that logic or rational thought are going to win there,…

Suspect vehicle is a Yolkswagen Touregg

“You’re the driver.”

Because nothing says “I’m the best” like getting furiously mad whenever anyone else succeeds, or “I’m a leader” like handing down hundreds of petty edicts in a fit of late-night emotional pique.

It’s just a ploy to keep white men in control of everything. They truly believe that if anyone but a white male gets any desirable job, they aren’t qualified. It’s the “great replacement” theory at it’s core, it’s racist and sexist, and will put unqualified white men in charge of things they shouldn’t be in charge of,…

When Trump saying he or the US is being ripped off, it means having to pay anything at all.

A lot of people will be all “bluh bluh but NASA had wammans forever I saw that math movie” to which the answer is “NASA had women early on for the same reason a lot of electronics companies did: rote mathematics and computer maintenance was considered drudge work that was beneath men.”

Hard to staff the DC ATC so eliminate DEI hiring? Surely making the hiring process more complex and installing a very hostile working environment will boost employment numbers.....solid plan, boys.

I am 100% certain that nazi, i mean ceo, elon musk does not care and will not do anything about it other than litter other pieces of paradise as well.

Public sentiment about EVs I think. People think used EV and they think bad expensive battery that will need to be replaced very soon, but it couldn’t be further from the truth.

Considering these EVs will be fully usable for years and years and years with little maintenance means these really are helluva deals.

Complaining to the NHTSA, an agency of the federal government, that Tesla isn’t getting back to you, while the guy atop Tesla is currently a shadow President sacking the federal government like a Visigoth through Rome.  Best of luck, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.

Europeans know what happens when you get in bed with Nazis. Calfornians recognize the danger too.

A deranged billionaire who regularly converses with Putin has assembled a team of a half dozen babyfaced techbros and they’re literally breaking into secure federal buildings and accessing sensitive systems and data.  Neither the people nor the hardware have been vetted.  DOGE hasn’t been created by Congress, Muskrat…

USAID also offers informal insights and intelligence into countries we aren’t typically friendly with. Same as with NGOs - you can learn a lot from just mingling with the locals, which often leads to useful intelligence.
