[No doubt Jackson, MS (thanks for correcting my MI blooper) is also a shithole city under Democrat rule, and has been for decades.  Today’s water system breakdown is typical of how Soviet-style jurisdictions took care of their infrastructure with public monies going mainly into the pockets of corrupt politicians.  Today’s mayor of Jackson is Chokye Antar Lumumba, a proud textbook socialist who describes himself as a “progressive, socialist, and political revolutionary”.  Like with most of his ilk, maintaining a functioning infrastructure is not high on his governance to-do list.  Again, the overwhelmingly black residents of the city continue to bring it on themselves.  (more here) gjr]

    Don 7:12 – “Bowers, described as a “rogue administrator” and “middle man turned usurper,” led the foundation to be investigated by the Internal Revenue Service and “[blazed] a path of irreparable harm to BLM in less than eighteen months,” according to the suit.”
    Yeah, just one ‘rogue’ administrator – the ones that spent millions buying large homes were all on the up and up.

    Hole Foods 3:10 – “He also used intimidation and violence to seize power.”
    When did Trump ever do that? It was ANTIFA rioting and attacking Republicans leading up to Trump being elected.
    Why don’t you read the article?
    “Nor was his oratory always persuasive. In 1928, Hitler was allowed to campaign freely and his Nazi party only won 3% of the vote, showing “his speeches had no effect at all,” said Richard J. Evans, a leading historian of Nazi Germany and author of the acclaimed “Third Reich Trilogy.””
    Trump held rallies with massive attendance and easily won the election.
    There is no similarity at all unless you want to compare the Austrian house painter to the Scranton liar and plagiarist perv.

    Oh Scott
    The Austrian house painter was also an artist using a canvas and small art bushes as well as a vegetarian. And Hitler never drank diet coke so we know Trump is not the Adolf we are talking about. Hitler never consumed on Big Mac in his life, being the veg head he was. Why are some many lousy artists veghead banana brains?
    I rest my case.

    from Yahoo “news” and the Dem Natl Committee.
    “Trump, who received hundreds of millions of dollars from his father’s real estate empire, calls John Fetterman spoiled: ‘He lived off his parents’ money’”
    Actually, Fetterman admitted he was living off of his parents dough when he was in his 40’s.
    At that age Trump had built up an empire far beyond what he inherited. The Kennedys blew the family fortune as do most all left wing trust funders.
    Most laughable line:
    “In 2018, The New York Times debunked Trump’s claims that he was a self-made billionaire. The outlet reported Trump received the equivalent of at least $413 million from his father’s real estate empire, beginning when he was a toddler.”
    Um… – “the equivalent”. Meaning he didn’t get anywhere near 413 mil.
    And 413 mil does not make you a billionaire but lefties can’t do math. Trump did get himself way beyond what his parents left him. Trump sacrificed millions to run for POTUS. He could have enriched himself far more if he had stayed out of politics.
    This sort of unethical and untruthful BS is a constant reminder of what happens if you dare to go against the swamp. The so called news media will slam you with lies non-stop.

    “MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Seventeen states with vehicle emission standards tied to rules established in California face weighty decisions on whether to follow that state’s strictest-in-the nation new rules that require all new cars, pickups and SUVs to be electric or hydrogen powered by 2035.
    Under the Clean Air Act, states must abide by the federal government’s standard vehicle emissions standards unless they at least partially opt to follow California’s stricter requirements.
    Among them, Washington, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon and Vermont are expected to adopt California’s ban on new gasoline-fueled vehicles. Colorado and Pennsylvania are among the states that probably won’t. The legal ground is a bit murkier in Minnesota, where the state’s “Clean Cars” rule has been a political minefield and the subject of a legal fight. Meanwhile, Republicans are rebelling in Virginia.”

    An electric car, like a golf cart, has a given range, speed and carrying capacity. I don’t need a golf cart and the drives I need to take aren’t well suited to the electric cars that are on the market.
    Doug once challenged me that I would be buying a Nissan Leaf soon… I have not, because they still won’t travel 600 miles on a charge and used examples generally are being sold because they require a very expensive battery replacement.

Got frozen jugs of water in the freezer, got the rechargeable batteries in the flashlight charged up last night, got a five gallon bucket of water in the bathroom in case I need to flush the toilet, have the emergency stash cash in the wallet in case the stores can’t take debit cards, and bought a big bag of dog food and have gas in the old clunker in case I have to go rescue some drama queen and get her carcass to the ER. I am more ready than usual for summer. Hmmm. Have you purchased your yearly delivery of propane yet? Procrastination bit me one that one important detail last winter.
