I was just walking past the checkout counter at a Habitat for Humanity store and I heard the woman paying say “I think once Trump is inaugurated everyone is going to feel more confidence, the housing market is going to bounce back, prices are going to go down, and with the border closed and the tariffs going we’ll be…

I buy that they want to return schools to segregation. But not racially segregated.

Because they want a return to segregation. That has always been the reason behind the attacks on public schools since 1954. No federal money going to local schools means that those schools can act like private schools and only teach what they want to teach. They also defund public schools locally so they can proclaim…

Although they also want an insanely stupid electorate.  Kind of a chicken/egg situation here.

Why do you think the Republicans want to get rid of the Department of Education?

But they created the electorate they have through underfunding of our education system and constantly attacking any legitimate news or information that they don’t agree with.

This is why I hate JD so much. He literally wrote a/the book describing the stupidity of the right-wing lower class base, then exploited that information (and them) for votes to further his political career.

You campaign to the electorate you have, not the one you want.

I vote for he knows he’s lying and doesn’t care.

You can’t convince me that BaT is not some elaborate money laundering scheme.

That’s exactly what was going through my head when I was watching this.

I remember ads for 900 numbers about making your opinion about pot legislation known to congress.

You’re the hero we need.

Most people aren't tuned into automotive press. They see the advertisement with the price and take the jump. 

“Brooklyn concrete magnate”

this piece was long on sarcasm and short on details, but I think I remember that most of vinfast’s sales were them essentially selling to themselves (a subsidiary company)

I’d have to imagine it would cost somewhere north of a billion to make the ship habitable even as a stationary office/living space. Only an insanely rich person with a passion of the ship would even consider restoration, there will never be any sort of profitable business case. 

What are the odds that China has a full set of blueprints for the X-37B?

This was my take too. Lowered Alpina? Nope!

This car looks rough and the hood alignment is janky. Those super-cool Alpina wheels look like shit painted black. Lowering it points to boy-racer ownership. This is one of those cases where if you really want one you are better off to spend $10k more and buy a better one. And if you can’t afford to spend $10k more,…
