Trump promised DOGE checks, tariff rebates, and a $5,000 dividend if Republicans hold Congress. Most of it was noise. But $500 checks are quietly going out to ACA enrollees just weeks before the midterms. The fine print may be his most brazen vote-buying scheme yet.

No one talks about this enough. I charge my EV at home. I can program it to charge during non-peak hours at a cheaper rate. Doesn't matter what time of day I fill up my truck, I always pay the same amount - unless I wait a day, then it costs more.

9-reporter story at Reuters saying Tesla successfully pressured automotive safety regulators and evaluators in the Netherlands to approve their FSD (Supervised) systems - partially automated driving systems - for use in customers' cars in EU. www.reuters.com/investigatio...

Tesla is browbeating the EU to approve its ‘Full Self-Driving’ tech. The pressure is working.
Elon Musk’s EV company is running a social-media campaign blaming European traffic deaths on red tape. Its safety claims don’t hold up, experts say, but regulators are starting to buckle.

Trump's cabinet is furious about his comments about attacking American cities. Not because they care about those cities, but because they had planned false flag terrorists attacks in those cities, and now, if they do them, Trump will be blamed for inviting such attacks.

Minnesota has held onto a Confederate flag captured by its soldiers at Gettysburg in 1863, despite repeated requests from Virginia to return it. When asked why Minnesota wouldn't give it back, former governor Jesse Ventura had a simple response:
"Why? I mean, we won."

Just a reminder: Tillis persuaded the woman Hegseth allegedly raped to come forward with her story, and told her that if she did, it would sink the nomination. She did. At great risk to herself. Tillis then cast the deciding vote for Hegseth. Because he’s a goddamned coward.
