The start/stop concept in vehicles is almost universally DESPISED. So, the Trump EPA has now REMOVED the ridiculous climate participation trophy the Obama Admin created to get this hated feature installed. The incentives for manufacturers to make your car die at every red light and stop sign have now been ELIMINATED!
The Wall Street Journal@WSJ

The stop-start engine has become an annoyance to many American drivers, who argue that it makes driving feel unnatural, jerky and unenjoyable. The feature, designed to lower auto emissions, is set to be eliminated by the White House. on.wsj.com/3OqcuDg

Nick Saban: "We need to come up with a system... to allow student athletes in all sports, including women's and olympic sports, to enhance their quality of life, while going to college — but still provide opportunity to advance themselves beyond their athletic career."
Rapid Response 47@RapidResponse47

.@POTUS hosts a Saving College Sports roundtable: "We're gathered today to discuss an important threat to the integrity and culture of college sports: the inability to set rules on eligibility, transfers, Name, Image, and Likeness... this has grown into a major challenge."

@alongslp @RapidResponse47 The system isn’t broken. You just don’t know how to work it. Again, he has plenty of options! Just because it’s not the one he wants doesn’t mean they aren’t there. I have family that plays for big programs and small programs. Coaches want players that’s developed.

@alongslp @RapidResponse47 And 26-27 years old is the average age of an NFL PLAYER!!!An 18 year old vs a 26 year old has an unbelievable advantage in terms of skill, speed, maturity, muscle mass, etc. it’s not only “unhealthy,” it’s dangerous if you’re 1 of the few 18 year old playing .

You don’t have enough information to make an assessment. The whole point of the meeting was the BROKEN system in place and how it’s ruining college athletics. He stepped on his own decision. Yes, other options but a victim of the current situation. If you aren’t in this mess, then you really don’t know what’s happening.

@WokeandPresent @RapidResponse47 Because he made it to a college roster-right. What roster was your name on? That’s always the easiest and most uninformed response to make. 🙄

@BlkSheep746868 @RapidResponse47 Easy for someone with 5 years of college experience & physical and neurological growth “beat out” someone. Did you hear Saban say that too- the young guys can’t compete against those older, experienced guys on a level field? It’s a MAJOR problem.

@OneNoleFamily @RapidResponse47 I understand that. You’re not in the depths of the monster. Talking to athletes and being the athlete and parent of the athlete are different.

@alongslp @RapidResponse47 He’s not a “victim” it sucks, college football has changed. I’ve talked to more D1 players who had to transfer than you can imagine. The game has changed. You don’t stay on a roster for 4 years anymore unless you are in the rotation

I don’t agree with that assessment. You’re entitled to your opinion. The whole discussion was about getting congressional intervention. It has to change or the elimination of young athletes will eventually result in a lack of athletes available to fill rosters once all the old heads of almost a decade of eligibility expires.

@alongslp @RapidResponse47 Not saying I like it Amy. I just don’t think trump is going to make a positive change on the sport, mostly what he touches turns to shit

What makes you think that?? Do you know the process of that? Do you know what it does to a kid (yes, an 18 yr is still a kid) when you’ve given blood, sweat, tears, time, etc to be looked over when a “man” comes & takes your spot?? If you’ve never been in this situation, I suggest you exit the conversation.

To all those who follow me because of @xx_xyathletics and who are now telling me to stop talking about covid... Let me just explain a few things -- and why that isn't going to happen. The only reason I'm even active on @X is because of covid. The only reason I have any following at all is because of covid. Why? Because I objected to school closures and lockdowns from day 1. I lost my career, my city, pretty much all of my friends. Because I said closed schools, closed playgrounds, and masking were harming our kids. We all suffered the most egregious violations of our civil liberties imaginable during lockdowns. I will never understand why people don't care and want to just pretend it never happened. We couldn't leave our homes. Literally. We were told we couldn't see family, celebrate the holidays. We couldn't move about freely. We were censored. We couldn't gather or protest (unless it was for BLM, then it was ok). People couldn't go to church or AA meetings. For years! Two year olds were forced to wear masks for hours a day. They suffered speech and developmental delays. That continue to this day. Public school students in blue states were kept out of full time school for a year and a half. While their private school peers attended school and played sports. The most vulnerable children were harmed the most. People couldn't work. 27M people lost their jobs in 2020. 27M!! People couldn't visit loved ones in the hospital. People died alone. Women gave birth alone. People were arrested for surfing. In the ocean - alone. The world shut down. Supply chains stopped. That initiated the inflation we still are struggling to beat back. I've been a covid dissident since March 2020. Children were harmed. They are still suffering from learning loss and the emotional impact of isolation and halted development. For some, the course of their lives was altered forever. They dropped out of school. Or fell behind and never caught up. Disengaged and never re-engaged. Drugs. Eating disorders. Suicidal ideation. Attempted suicide. Oh and the by way, the trans madness accelerated during lockdowns. Why? Isolation, terminal on-line-ness, depression, anxiety, all of it. Caused by lockdowns. This is not something I will forgive. Or forget. You can't treat kids like prisoners and expect them to be ok (that is quote from a parent in Generation Covid - a parent who lost his child to suicide in 2021.) I started making this documentary in 2022, and followed children and families who were harmed for 2 full years. It's called Generation-Covid. Don't look away.

So sad to hear that. People have no idea how detrimental those lockdowns were for everyone. I’m a speech therapist & also work part-time in the nursing homes. The INSANE things they did to that population should be criminal. They begged to just die instead of being in solitary confinement. 😡
