Trump's Second Term

Fossil fuel industry investors, tax-benefactors. The industry itself, not so much.

I would speculate the industries that depend on fossil fuels are either so geared to new technologies or so run down now that "new" investment will not prove viable in either the near of longer future. In short, it would cost more to go backwards than forwards.

It's always about the money. But sadly, the average Joe out there has a short term memory. The energy industry has seen more shenanigans manipulating markets.

One [that] man's brain is another man's [rancid, off brand, and potentially likely toxic] pudding.

People of the Earth, hear my plea: do not raise up the pudding-brains. Do not give them power, do not give them authority, for they are thick as constipated pig ◊◊◊◊. They will ruin everything good, in part because they are nasty, brittle little shittles, in part because some leftist cuck-snowflake-domestic-terrorist asked them not to, but mostly because they are pudding-brains [and it doesn't matter if you are imagining the US or the non-US definition of pudding, neither is a thing brains should resemble] that don't understand, or care, how anything works as long as their team 'wins'.

I'm still a bit of a fan of Cipolla's "stupid matrix." It's honestly a bit hard to tell the difference between the stupid and the bandits in the Trump Administration in that measure, unfortunately. Outside of the Trump Administration, of course, nigh all Trump voters can be safely said to have been stupid, though, rather than bandits.

This regime is like 30 retarded monkeys in a poo throwing war against the law of the land and its citizens.
Just as the courts and congress stop one mess three others and some stupid distraction come up.

They "win" when they buy time to get away with something for a week before its shot down, and then nobody prosecuted them for it.
Yet.
Stealing enough money for a good getaway plan seems to be the theme here. They know it's not going to be happy days when this regime ends.

Unless that one of them manages to build his Mars rocket it won't be enough. There is nowhere on this planet they can all escape eventual justice. Their best hope is to stall until they drop dead from old age.

Pete Hegseth
This will be immediately appealed.

Sec. Hegseth's argument was based almost entirely on one court case. It applies to active-duty service members but not to retired service members. Nor does it apply to Senators. Without that one singular case, poorly interpreted, Hegseth's argument devolves to the same vague, handwaving accusations as everyone else in the Trump regime.

Sen. Kelly isn't accused of "sedition" in any court document. It's just Twitter bluster.

Good point. That too.

Which is what makes me curious to discover how the US MSM treats Trump's lunatic claims about renewable energy. It's on a par with the Iranian regime claiming immodestly dressed women cause earthquakes. But can they say that or is it too dangerous to contradict Trump?

It's been bothering me since a recent video from the usually fun Technology Connections guy, where he spent much longer than usual gently explaining that solar and wind generating technologies do indeed work. He seemed to be taking great care not to alienate a large audience I inferred believe this tech is just a hoax or is otherwise fatally flawed and useless.

That's one thing I've become aware of. What they state publicly will be the charges or lawsuit can be very different to what actually is presented to the court.
 
Start/stop systems were invented by Toyota in 1974 and were being adopted by Japanese and European car makers in the 90s.

Lee Zeldin: There will be no more climate participation trophies awarded to manufacturers who make Americans’ vehicles die at every red light and stop sign. It’s over. The Start/Stop Obama Switch is FINISHED!

Under President Trump’s leadership, manufacturers can build the vehicles Americans actually want, instead of the vehicles that politicians and bureaucrats in Washington demand.

Wait. What?

Something something Noem's blankie? Story is paywalled (or signup-walled or whatever).

Lets go back to buying cars that waste fuel all the time they're idling at the lights. Because think of how that fuel you're throwing away will pwn the Libs.

I'm just waiting for Trump to autosharpie an XO making it a criminal offence to say your truck spewing filthy black smoke is "rolling coal" because that's slander; coal is famously clean and beautiful.
