@proteinwisdom This whole clip is insufferable, and I'm gonna be honest when Tucker started doing his Tucker response the lady didn't handle it the best. No idea why the comments under the QT think this is a gotcha from Tucker... Was the real 1% all along just people who aren't retarded?

Mulder’s Long Fight for Account Reinstatement
I’ve been raising the alarm about this account. It’s making its move away from Covid, where it was excellent, into alt-right messaging, though it’s been cagey about it. Just something to keep an eye on.
The Vigilant Fox 🦊@VigilantFox

A reporter asks Tucker Carlson if Israel has a “right to exist.” Tucker flips the question right back and asks her to define what “right to exist” means. And then this happened.

@WellsJorda89710 I'm Catholic and I am sick of Candace. Protestants & Catholics need to unite in realizing she is an insufferable idiot.

🚨"Too Smart to Be Protestant"? Candace Owens Mocks Charlie Kirk's Faith – But Forgets Protestantism Built America🚨 Candace told a Catholics for Catholics crowd Charlie was "too smart to be a Protestant." Truth: Protestant principles—religious liberty, individual faith, Scripture alone—fueled the Reformation & America's founding. Without them, no USA as we know it. She only converted to Catholicism after marrying her husband. I respect many Catholics as fellow believers, but we worship **JESUS**, not the pope. Her "joke" divides Christians when we need unity. Hate isn't holy. ✝️🇺🇸 #ProtestantPride #CharlieKirk #JesusOnly #FaithOverDivision

When electricity is very cheap, EVs will be awesome. Unfortunately a lot of countries have gutted their generation capability in pursuit of net zero (including my home, Australia) driving prices up quite high. What I want to see is an ongoing costs comparison that includes battery replacements over the lifetime of the vehicle.

Overly Trev@OverlyTrev·
There is a huge misconception when people claim it only takes 5 minutes to fill up a gas tank versus charging an EV. Here are the key considerations: 1. The typical time spent at a gas pump is 8–9 minutes, but it varies: - Circle K: 8.9 minutes - Sheetz: 11.5 minutes - Wawa: 11.4 minutes - Buc-ee’s: 20.3 minutes 2. Filling up requires driving to the station, which can take 10–45 minutes depending on your location and the nearest station. 3. Oil changes and maintenance take time and money (even if you do them yourself, you still have to buy oil and perform the work). EVs eliminate this entirely. 4. Home charging takes seconds to plug in, and you wake up to a full charge the next day. 5. In March, I spent $9 on electricity while current gas prices are $3.49/gallon—a savings of over $60 in fuel for the month. 6. Adding up time and money saved over a year comes to roughly 15–30 hours and over $750, and I don’t even drive that much. EV’s save you time and money and once you have one you’ll never go back to gas.

@allie_m734 @ChavuraStephen I have no idea if the bloke in the OP was panic buying, and I never said he was. I simply made the point that the reason rural servos are running dry is because people are buying more than they need. It doesn't matter if one person is or isn't, but how the masses are behaving.

@allie_m734 @ChavuraStephen Never said he was, I said that panic buying is what is drying up regional servos. So far supply has not been affected, though prices to import future crude or refined products is more expensive. Btw, how would you feel if you didn't eat breakfast this morning?

@james_luke08 @BorealBaron Historically, yes. In the current conflict, no. To the point that Australian Navy personnel aboard a US sub when the attack started were told to sit back and not do anything. Lol.

Australia has contributed troops to every war the US has fought in the last 100 years, including Korea and Vietnam. Meanwhile, Israel has contributed troops to no US or European-led wars. If there’s no shared sacrifice, how is alliance measured other than by propaganda?
Pisco@PiscoLitty

Ben Shapiro says in a recent video it is a "form of sedition" that our allies, Canada, UK, Australia, EU, etc. do not join America and Israel's war with Iran. That those countries are not actually allies. After years of Trump attacks, threats, tariffs. Is he insane?

You were never meant to change your habits in the dead of winter. That’s why they made “New Year’s Day” in January (look up who was behind that one). To keep you a slave to habit. To keep you from locking in. Until 1752, Protestant Britain’s New Year fell on March 25th. Protestants rioted when the government bowed to the pressure of foreign merchants and adopted the papist calendar. Tonight is the night that our oldest steppe ancestors celebrated the New Year. Spring is here, and with it the possibility of change. Now is the time to make your resolutions.

.@MattWalshBlog said that there may never have been a person in history subjected to the scrutiny & slander Erika is enduring. Imagine not even being able to buy clothing w/out ppl leaking the info to wicked influencers. P.S.- It’s not 1800. Ppl don’t buy “mourning clothes.” They simply wear black/dark colors.

Omigoshhhhhhh I just now saw this. They're really shaming Erika for buying comfortable clothes to wear at home after her husband died????

@RestoreAussies It's not just about closing them either... Our refineries are old af and have small throughout, we need to build big modern refineries that can serve an entire seaboard.

Restore Australia 🇦🇺@RestoreAussies·
We have a monstrous amount of our own oil reserves, all sadly untapped due to ideological reasons. The tragedy, is that our hyper liberalised rulers saw fit to completely deindustrialise us, with only two refineries left in working order. We therefore have to import 90% of our fuel, over immensely vast distances. We are ruled by career politicians, who are sadly marxist and liberal ideologues. They have very little idea of the vast amount of diesel, kerosine and petroleum that our nation requires to function, and prefer to kneel at the altar of net zero. Australia needs a complete clear out of the political class. Australia needs a restoration 🇦🇺

Melinda Richards 🇦🇺🇺🇸@goodfoodgal

Over the last 20 years, Australia has closed 6 of its 8 oil refineries. We continue to be a country reliant on others for our own prosperity. We should be a super power. Instead we have failed to capitalise on our natural wealth & develop our economic capability.

@BorealBaron Because boots on the ground is not the only way to contribute, you retard. Since Gulf War I onwards, Israel has supplied intelligence, arms, cyber warfare, technology, and training. They are a tiny nation surrounded by enemies, of course they are going to keep troops local.

Petrol stations almost always have petrol. It's FAR more common to find public car chargers don't work, or the app doesn't work or they're all in use You can also keep cans of spare petrol at home for emergencies Once in a blue moon there's a petrol shortage. EV charging issues are an integral part of owning an EV Most people don't have the luxury of a home with off street parking so perhaps you could be less smug and show some awareness of your privilege. Particularly since the cost of the charging infrastructure you use are paid for by ALL electricity users not just the ones that benefit from it

People who drive antiquated ICE cars ask: “What if you run out of battery?” Fair question… assuming petrol stations always have fuel. But what if they don’t? My charger is at home, always available. Yours depends on a volatile supply chain and geopolitics. #Bettrification

@OMGTheMess That's right. Honestly though they should have started building 1-2 mega-refineries at the time they saved those two. Lytton and Geelong are both old, ~60yrs, and small throughput.

@KeenanPeachy The problem is the globalization of the economy. It's not just the countries you mentioned that have to pay high prices, we all do because the price shocks hit the whole market. Here in Australia we don't even import Mid-East oil due to the sulfur but it's still affecting us.

I am morally opposed to American sailors putting their lives at risk so India, China, and Pakistan can buy cheap Arabian oil that Americans don't use, need, or buy. I understand there is some good fiduciary reason for the US Navy to keep the Gulf open but it seems like a dumb and expensive forever job. Let the third world manage their own third world oil. The object of war is not to die for your country, but to make the other poor, dumb bastard die for his.

If you dont understand that Iranian oil has been passing through the Strait of Hormuz for the entire duration of the war, then your view as an "expert" on the situation isnt worth jack s***.
