@GregorioSh64773 How is it affected by dirt and road trash? And what powers it?

Florida just solved RANGE ANXIETY for EV drivers. They’re testing a highway that charges your car WHILE you’re driving — wireless charging lane built right into the road. Genius move for a tourism-heavy state like ours. More beach time, fewer charging stops. Who else is ready for this? 🚗⚡

@PlanetOfMemes Don't eat that shit. But a steak instead. And butter. Lots of butter.

The only personality test that matters. Which weiner are you ordering at the cookout?

@LuckyMcGee How black do they have to be to join the "Black Caucus"???? I guess they have to get a color matching card to tell.

Fun Fact of the Day: These Four Republicans Byron Donalds (FL-19), Wesley Hunt (TX-38), John James (MI-10), and Burgess Owens (UT-4) represent majority white congressional districts, and NOT one of them was allowed to join the Black Congressional Caucus. Are they not black enough? 🤔 I’m starting to think the democrats are being very disingenuous about all this talk of black people being unable to be elected or represented, the black vote being repressed, and the “Jim Crow 2.0” bullshit. 🤨

@HistorianUSA1 Say their names.

This is the kind of raw, unbreakable American spirit that cuts through the noise. 🇺🇸 Vietnam vet Lt. Bud Alley — standing at The Wall, pointing to the name of his brother-in-arms, Garrett Floris Lee. “He died in my arms.” November 17, 1965 — Ia Drang Valley, LZ Albany. One of the bloodiest days of the war. Bud carried that moment for nearly 60 years until he finally tracked down Garrett’s sister in North Carolina just a couple years ago. This is what real brotherhood looks like. Not hashtags. Not politics. Blood, mud, and a promise kept across decades. These men answered the call when their country asked. They fought, bled, and never forgot their fallen. The least we can do is remember them. Respect to Bud Alley and every Vietnam vet who still stands tall. This is America. Never forget.

@BlueBoxDave The ballroom funding is not being paid for by the govt. The parliamentarian can go kick rocks.

It’s so great knowing we are ruled by the Senate Parliamentarian. Whoever the hell that is… John Thune’s boss, I guess.

@JohnCornyn Vote for KEN PAXTON!!!

Vote in the Republican runoff May 18-22 and May 26. While my name is on the ballot the Senate race is not about me or my opponent. It is about the future of Texas, the Republican Party, the US Senate, and President Trump’s agenda. Your vote is your voice!

@SamaHoole If the wall isn't at least 6 feet high and can hold water, Keith can navigate it. 3 feet is nothing.

Dave came down at 5am for water for the kettle. The yard was dark. The barn was dark. The north field was dark. There was, by every available measure, nothing to look at. Keith was sitting on the yard wall. Not standing. Sitting. Folded down on the cap stones with his legs underneath him and his head turned toward the house, in the precise posture of an animal who had been waiting for some time and had assumed, reasonably, that someone would come along eventually. The yard wall is three feet from the house. The gate to the yard is fifty feet from where Keith was sitting. The gate was latched. Dave checked, because Dave checks every morning, twice. Dave stood in the doorway in his slippers and looked at Keith. Keith looked at Dave. The kettle was still in Dave's hand. Dave said, in the quiet voice of a man who has stopped being surprised and is now just collecting data: "How." Keith did not answer. Keith stood up, walked along the wall to the corner, dropped down onto the path, walked past Dave without acknowledgement, went through the open back door, paused briefly in the kitchen to look at the kettle stand, and walked back out again. He had eaten nothing. He had touched nothing. He had simply, as far as Dave could tell, wanted to confirm that the kitchen was still where it was on the last visit. Dave's log, that morning: "He came into the kitchen. He left. The gate was latched. The wall is three feet high. The wall is also fine. I have made tea."

Britain has 17.5 million hectares of agricultural land. 65% of it cannot grow a single crop. Too thin. Too high. Too wet. Too steep. The kind of slope where a tractor becomes a story they tell in the village pub for generations. It grows grass. Because grass is what evolved to grow there. The cow eats the grass. The sheep eats the grass. Your stomach cannot eat the grass. Take the ruminants off and the food production from that land becomes zero. Not lower. Zero. The ruminant is not blocking a better option. The ruminant is the only option. The activist who wants the ruminant removed is not reducing meat consumption. He is outsourcing it. To Brazilian feedlots on cleared rainforest, shipped six thousand miles in a refrigerated container. The British hill goes to bracken. The Amazon goes to soy. The supermarket label changes from Hereford to Mato Grosso. This is presented as the ethical position. It is the most expensively packaged self-deception in modern politics.

@LeaderJohnThune is bought and paid for, but not by "We the People".

WARNING from Dr. Daniel Pompa: Big Food giants are BUYING UP your favorite “healthy” small brands… then secretly CHEAPENING the ingredients behind your back — without telling you! Real examples of the betrayal: • Bear Naked Granola (now Kellogg’s): Switched from real honey/maple syrup to cheaper tapioca syrup and processed sweeteners. • Cascadian Farm (General Mills): Added sugar, corn meal, tapioca syrup & soy oil to once-simple organic cereals. • Siete Foods (PepsiCo): Replaced pure cassava flour with cheaper starch blends + xanthan gum & preservatives. • Epic Bars (General Mills): Cut protein, raised sodium, and moved away from 100% grass-fed/organic meats. You think you’re eating clean? You’re being played. They own it. They dilute it. You keep buying it. This is corporate betrayal at its worst.

Food for thought on Gov Polis' clemency of Tina Peters. First priority was getting Tina out of prison. That is scheduled to happen on June 1. I and many others are EXTREMELY happy about that. IMPORTANT NOTE: Polis did not pardon Tina of her offenses. He only cut her sentencing in half making her eligible for parole. Power now shifts to the CO Parole Board...not Gov Polis, not CO SoS Griswold, and not the rabid Dems in the legislature. The Parole Board consists of nine members appointed by the Governor and ostensibly confirmed by the Senate. The entire Parole Board consists of Polis appointees. The Parole Board's authority over Peters is substantial and largely unchecked: - It conducts parole application interviews where a single member sets the specific conditions of parole - It monitors compliance through Community Parole Officers (CPOs) who report violations - It holds revocation hearings and can send a parolee back to prison for violations of any parole condition — not just new crimes -For violations short of a new crime, the Board can revoke parole and impose up to 180 days in confinement, or full revocation to complete the remaining sentence In other words, the Parole Board could impose the following parole conditions: - Prohibition on involvement in election administration - Prohibition on association with co-defendants - Restriction on accessing voting systems or government computer systems - Restriction on activities "related to the offense" — this is the broadest and most dangerous condition; depending on how it is written, it could potentially be interpreted to restrict election integrity advocacy, testimony, or organizing if connected to her criminal conduct There is a legal line the board members are not supposed to cross, however, regarding speech protected under the First Amendment. So, the next major milestone prior to Tina's release involves the establishment of the conditions for Tina's parole by the CO Parole Board. We need to pray that Tina's rights are not further constrained beyond what the State of CO has done to her already. In the meantime, we are thankful that Tina will FINALLY be released from prision. P.S. The next CO Governor election is November 3, 2026. I encourage the residents of CO to ask candidates to issue a full pardon of Tina in light of the fact that she preserved election records under the requirements of federal law. Might wanna skip the Dem candidates considering their public positions on the matter ;) @AsheinAmerica @ashincolorado @canncon @realtinapeters @PeterTicktin @KurtOlsen_USA @realMikeLindell @PatrickByrne @realDonaldTrump @PressSec @GenFlynn

My wife and I were recently discussing the significant expansion of data centers across the United States. We noted that a substantial number of these facilities appear to lack a clear, high-value operational purpose relative to their scale and resource consumption. We also observed that many are being constructed on prime agricultural land. This led us to consider a more speculative hypothesis: could the primary intent behind a portion of these developments be to accelerate the depletion of underground aquifers? By significantly reducing available groundwater, such activity could impair or eliminate large-scale farming and ranching operations. Additionally, any resulting ecological disruptions—such as increased pest populations like ticks—might further limit activities such as hunting. If these effects were to materialize on a broad scale, would they sufficiently constrain traditional food production to push consumer reliance toward alternatives such as bio meat products associated with investors like Bill Gates, or insect-based dairy substitutes? We would be interested in thoughtful perspectives on this idea.

@WinningintheUSA The State should at least attempt to recover the funds from the fraud. Probably most of it is gone for good, but some of it should be recoverable.

🚨 Oklahoma taxpayers — this one’s a jaw-dropper. A state audit in 2023 found that Oklahoma DHS mishandled nearly $791 MILLION in federal childcare pandemic funds… and now taxpayers could be left holding the bag. 💸 State Auditor Cindy Byrd’s Federal Single Audit uncovered a staggering $63.6 MILLION in questioned costs tied to weak oversight, poor documentation, and questionable spending. Some of the findings? 👇 🔹 Taxpayer-funded luxury daycare remodels with granite countertops and $30K-$40K renovations 🔹 One recipient allegedly used $20,000 to pay off a Cadillac 🚗 🔹 Millions spent on programs that quietly vanished after the federal money dried up 🔹 A former DHS childcare director reportedly awarded about $2 MILLION to her husband’s company, where leadership paid themselves massive salaries 🔹 Inflated “5-star” daycare ratings boosted subsidy payments the state may not be able to sustain Auditor Byrd didn’t mince words: DHS “did not put strong guidelines” in place and failed to monitor how the money was used. Translation? 🚨 Oklahoma may now have to repay millions back to the federal government because oversight was practically asleep at the wheel. That’s YOUR tax dollars. Not Monopoly money. Not a blank check. And while families struggled with childcare costs, some people treated pandemic funds like a shopping spree with government platinum cards. 🎰 Is anyone truly shocked anymore… or is this just business as usual in government spending? Share this. People need to see where the money went. #Oklahoma #OklahomaAudit #GovernmentWaste #TaxpayerMoney #CindyByrd #DHS

@WallStreetApes Some people just stopped drinking crap.

This is one of the reasons many Americans stopped buying sodas, the prices are outrageous One 12 pack at this grocery store is $11.99 Sodas used to be 4 of these boxes for $12 bucks or buy 2 get 3 free Name brand 12 packs of soda have seen a 90% increase in price since 2020 at some locations, soda as a whole has seen a 35% price increase according to U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics There’s actually a reason for this, it’s a new business model for soda. Companies shifted to “price over volume” strategies Meaning instead of giving Americans a lot of for their money, instead they’ll jack up prices and just make more money on selling less Remember when America wasn’t about seeing how much we can all be robbed for

@Cashloren We hope so.

Do you think John Cornyn is the next Senator to lose his seat to Ken Paxton?

@HouseoftheMuse_ Raising a dishwasher isn't hard...takes 9 months plus 10 years give or take and a boatload of $$. Oh, and you have to baby sit it so it doesn't do anything stupid.

So obvious… why didn’t we do this all along? 😳

You can cut the tips off of your seeds and make them sprout 3-7x faster... If you're feeling behind on your growing season, you may want to give scarification a try. Basically, you remove a chunk of the seed coat to allow water to get into the seed faster In one of my favorite crops - luffa gourds - this speeds up germination from 10-20 days to ~3.5, an insane boost that might even save your season if you're planting late It works because seeds break dormancy and begin growing in three phases: Phase 1: Imbibition - water rehydrating the seed Phase 2: Activation - cell processes kickstart Phase 3: Radicle Formation - first root emerges Phases 2-3 can't start until water rehydrates a seed to a certain amount. Clipping the tip off of a seed, or even lightly scraping the seed's exterior speeds up rehydration a MASSIVE amount. Just make sure you don't damage any internal structures, so less is more here I grow a ton of my own food and show others to do the same, follow if interesting to you

California gave ONE nonprofit $1 BILLION. To put solar panels on poor people's roofs. You know how much solar they actually installed? $72 million. That's it. So where the FUCK is the other $928 MILLION? I'll tell you exactly where. The same nonprofit that WROTE the law that gave them the money ALSO got the contract to run "community outreach." Same guy runs the nonprofit AND the program. Chris Walker. Two paychecks. Look it up. And their SISTER organization — same building, same staff, same donors — is a 501(c)(4) that endorses Democrat candidates and runs door-knocking operations in the EXACT SAME NEIGHBORHOODS. Connect the dots, idiot. You pay $7.50 a gallon for gas. Cap-and-trade takes a cut at the pump. That money flows to "climate justice nonprofits." Those nonprofits funnel it into Democrat get-out-the-vote machines. You. Are. Funding. The. People. Who. Are. Robbing. You. Every time you fill up your fucking tank, you're paying for a Democrat campaign volunteer to knock on a stranger's door and tell them how amazing Gavin Newsom is. $928 MILLION. GONE. And not one journalist in this state asked a single question until @jennyraeca and CAL DOGE pulled the receipts. You think this is the only one? There's a hundred more like it. This is how California works now. This is how a "blue state" stays blue when only 48% of the voters are Democrats. Wake the fuck up. @patrickbetdavid @VincentOshana @FoxNews @WallStreetApes @CalDOGEgov @elonmusk @libsoftiktok We're standing in front of the building right now. @raminrealtalk" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@raminrealtalk
