Well done Trump! Pure EV vehicles sales soaring in Germany. Last month their market share hit 34,5%, marking a new record. That's a 95% increase compared to the same month last year. Combustion engines sales decreased 29,2%. (German) www.spiegel.de/mobilitaet/a...

I'm not naive enough to actually believe this will happen, but Democrats could be preparing, right now, lists of impeachment charges against (at a bare minimum) Hegseth, Kennedy, Mullin, Patel, Blanche, & Trump, as well as Bondi, Bovino, & Noem (still worth doing!) that rely purely on public facts,

"The scale of Russia’s ambition to freeze Ukrainians into submission is evident in a document that the Ukrainian energy minister, Denys Shmyhal, showed to European partners in Paris two weeks ago, according to two people familiar with his presentation."
Mr. Shmyhal, the people said, described the document as an intercepted Russian plan to cause the energy system to collapse through methodical attacks. The plan, a copy of which The New York Times obtained, describes a campaign of strikes using up to 1,000 missiles, drones and bombs. They would target a wide range of facilities, including electrical substations, hydroelectric and thermal power plants, and boiler houses.

It's 3PM–what are you doing here?"Panel 2: The Sandman points at him with a flat expression and replies, "I'm here to fuck your day up."Panel 3: The Sandman throws sleep dust over the worker with a "sprinkle" sound effect.Panel 4: The worker instantly passes out face-first onto his keyboard, knocking over his coffee cup, with a loud "BAM" and "ZZZZZ" text above him.

The response when progressive policies that help millions of people are proposed... "How will you pay for it?" The response when the richest 1% ask for tax cuts, or banks ask for bailouts, or defense contractors ask for more contracts... "How much do you need?" It doesn't have to be this way.
