It's not as impactful as you might imagine. A full third of Gulf production exits via a pipeline across Saudi. Another large percentage is getting out by turning off their transponders so nobody knows they ever made it through. The remaining amount is made up by increasing us, Mexican, and Venezuelan production. It's not as dire as the media makes it seem.

Never Forget, Chicago! A Freedom of Information Act request revealed that Chicago and Illinois officials were spending $700,000 per day on migrant-related services during 2022–2023. Again—$700,000 per day. •The city has provided support to more than 51,000 migrants since August 2022 •Illinois has projected up to $2.5 billion in total migrant-related spending by the end of 2025 These numbers continue to raise serious questions about priorities, transparency, and long-term impact on taxpayers.

@TechOperator Only works for rich people who own a home. Try putting a charger in a public parking spot outside a 5 story apartment house.

“I spent 1 year with a Tesla and realized one thing: I was 100% confident in my misinformed opinions. I used to be an EV skeptic. I was wrong. Here are the 5 things that changed my mind: Charging - I thought gas stations were better. I was wrong. Waking up every morning to a “full tank” is the single best benefit of ownership. No more stops in the rain or snow. It’s a total game-changer. One-Pedal Driving - I didn't think braking could be improved. Wrong again. Regenerative braking is so intuitive that I almost never touch the physical brake pedal. Going back to a two-pedal internal combustion engine feels clunky now. Full Self-Driving (FSD) - I said I’d never let a computer drive for me. Now? I’m convinced it drives better than I do. The improvements this year have been mind-blowing. This tech is going to provide massive mobility for the elderly and disabled. The Screen vs. Buttons - I used to tell friends, "I like knobs and buttons." I laugh at that now. Thinking I need physical buttons is like missing the BlackBerry keyboard. The touch interface is intuitive, clean, and constantly improving. Performance - I knew it would be fast, but it’s absurd. It replaced a high-end German sports car, and the Tesla handles and accelerates significantly better while still being a practical family vehicle. Ignorance was bliss because it made me feel smart, but day-to-day ownership of the Model Y proved me wrong. If you're on the fence, the experience is likely much different from what you imagine.”

Just got this from a friend reflecting on the 1-year anniversary with their Tesla. “Everything people think before owning something tends to be, at best, misinformed, and typically just wrong. Charging is what really gets me. Non-Tesla or even non-EV owners have no idea of the quality-of-life impact of charging versus filling up a car with a toxic chemical in the rain, snow, and wind. His name is Ranger. The car's name is Killeen. It may be the dirtiest Tesla in America.”

@cybertruck Way too simplistic. How do you home charge if you live in a rented apartment? Or in a HOA that won't allow it? Or in a mobile home parked with 80 amp maximum service? Those folks must pay full retail, often 60 to 80 cents per kwh.

@PaigePamelaMusk @megynkelly Effectively, he did. Senior officers don't fly in the Wizzo seat. When they do, its either as a joke or an emergency, and never in a shooting war. He was too old and too senior for that job. He is a glory seeker. He is supposed to be flying a desk.

@JBo825 @megynkelly I spent my 10 years calibrating the instruments you speak about. I've seen high ranking pilots force their way into positions they would not have been allowed if they were an 03, 04, 05, or 06. This guy was way too senior to be in that jet. Wait for the investigation. You'll see.

@dapted @megynkelly How about mechanical failure you twit! To have the thought that American soldiers are sent to battle not having knowledge of all the capabilities of their jet, or gun, or weapon tool, is ludicrous. You really should not speak on something you know nothing about.

@megynkelly It’s laughable how now everything is tacked to “Delta on site!” It’s a Marine TRAP team likely and some PJs from the 31st MEU. Maybe some additional Force guys and SEALS itching to get off the boat. And a blocking force likely from the same ARG that trained for this

@salamiheadbruh @megynkelly I know the PJs will be flying in with some little birds, but some seals in a Blackhawk will be hovering nearby as well. I'd be surprised if Delta even gets to run chow to some FARP set up out in the boondocks. Lol

CNN gets caught pushing a lie that Victor Glover is the first African American to go to space. The first African American in space was Dr. Guy Bluford Jr. in 1983! Did CNN mess up, or did they push race propaganda?

@SenSchumer @SecRubio No budget can come through congress without the president being able to veto it. He can make a lot of nato bean counters cry.

I can promise this: The Senate will not vote to leave NATO and abandon our allies just because Trump is upset they wouldn’t go along with his reckless war of choice.   Thank you to @SecRubio for sponsoring the bill in 2023 requiring a two thirds vote of the Senate to make sure clueless presidents couldn’t act on a whim.
Senator Marco Rubio: Archived@SenMarcoRubio

No U.S. President should be able to withdraw from NATO without Senate approval. Thankful my colleagues in Congress passed this bipartisan measure.

No one should expect a President who doesn’t care about America’s laws to follow international law.
Acyn@Acyn

Reporter: The president said we might blow up and completely obliterate all of their generating electric plants, oil wells, Kharg island, and possibly all desalination plants. Under international law, striking infrastructure is generally prohibited. Why is the president advocating potentially a war crime and how do you square that with the US aying it does not target civilians? Leavitt: Their best move is to make a deal or else the united States armed forces has capabilities beyond their wildest imagination Reporter: Including potential war crimes? Leavitt: With respect to achieving the full objectives, the president is going to move forward… Reporter: Which of those objectives would destroying a desalination plant most help?

UChicago's @ProfessorPape: "If you're going to take the Strait of Hormuz back, you're going to have to control an over 100 mile stretch by 20 miles deep into Iran... That would be 100,000+ troops just for this footprint... We don't have the troops to occupy Iran."

Trump’s sheer lawlessness is getting worse and worse. Why? Because he’s more desperate than ever. He knows the GOP is about to pay the price for his failures come November. Donald Trump, you are no king. The gig is up.
