"You can't even have solar in a home if you have trees that are too tall. How are you going to drive around the city and have a solar-powered truck in the concrete jungle?" Lachterman asked. "It's just ridiculous. You're going to have product costs going through the roof trying to convert something is crazy, and if you go battery, I'll need something twice as long to hold the batteries to run it."

Yes. It is a mental pandemic!

A New Day, a New Type of Election Fraud - American Thinker

A New Day, a New Type of Election Fraud - American Thinker - By Jay Valentine
"Seems like every day, someone is finding new, fun types of election fraud. 
This is not accidental -- this is exactly how industrial, at-scale, organized fraud is uncovered. We call it spiraling to accuracy.
  • When our team was hired by State Farm, GEICO, USAA, and other top insurers to stop organized auto fraud rings, we found the easy stuff fast -- the equivalent of phantom voters.
  • When we cracked eBay’s on-line auction fraud -- we were dealing not with organized rings, but individual crime entrepreneurs who sold a computer, took the dough, never delivered, were kicked off eBay, changed every identifier, and rejoined eBay with the same scam..
This is how industrial-scale, organized fraud detection unfolds.
  • That is happening in the election fraud space with new variants -- SMURFS, algorithms, and shape shifters...
Deeper analysis shows tens of millions of dollars in illegal, outside contributions coming in, then being carefully redistributed to leftist candidates all over the country. 
James O’Keefe did a story on it.
Law enforcement’s term-of-art for this criminal endeavor is “SMURF.”...

How dare Americans not cheer for a team that hates the country
"...In girls’ soccer news, the detestable USWNT lost to Sweden on a missed penalty kick by the detestable Megan Rapinoe...
Real Americans cheer the news that these detestable people will no longer represent our great nation on the world stage. 
They are crass, ignorant and disrespectful. 
When one of their players scored a goal against Britain’s team in England a few years ago, she faked drinking a cup of tea.
The team rallied the world against them because they are mean, petty and obnoxious. 
In other words, liberals...

"Nobel Prize-winning physicist John Clauser isn't afraid to go against the flow...
  • "I believe that climate change is not a crisis," Mr. Clauser told the audience at Quantum Korea 2023.

  • The physicist said he believes that objective science on climate has been sacrificed to politics
  • The preeminence of politics is all the worse, he said, because so much money has already gone to climate initiatives.
"We're talking about trillions of dollars," he said, adding that powerful people don't want to hear that they've made "trillion-dollar mistakes."...

IN DEPTH: Banks Take Lead in Establishing Personal Social Credit System, Critics Charge | The Epoch Times
"Large money-center banks appear to be in the vanguard of a movement to build a system of personal social credit scores.
  • This week, British bank Barclays became the latest to be accused of shutting the accounts of its customers for political or religious reasons. That followed revelations in April that Coutts, a private bank owned by UK bank NatWest, was alleged to have closed the accounts and publicized personal information of conservative politician Nigel Farage, one of the foremost Brexit advocates and a supporter of the policies of former U.S. President Donald Trump.
Meanwhile, British banks aren't alone.

Latest Housing Data Are Clear: 'Bidenomics' Is Heading Toward a Crash | Opinion

Latest Housing Data Are Clear: 'Bidenomics' Is Heading Toward a Crash | Opinion - JUSTIN HASKINS
"In recent weeks, the Biden administration has ramped up its efforts to fool Americans into believing the United States has entered a golden era of economic prosperity.
"Here's what Bidenomics looks like," President Joe Biden said July 21 on Twitter
"Over 13 million new jobs, including 800,000 manufacturing jobs. Unemployment below 4%, the longest stretch in the last 50 years. Inflation has slowed every single month for the last 12 months."
As I've written previously, Biden's claims about job growth and unemployment are greatly exaggerated. A fair look at the evidence shows most of the economic gains that have occurred in Biden's first term are due to the COVID-19 lockdowns ending, something the White House deserves very little, if any, credit for.
Even more important, however, is that Biden has failed to acknowledge the growing amount of economic data signaling the country could soon enter an economic recession. 
One of the most overlooked and reliable indicators—housing data—suggests the emerging recession could end up becoming the largest in six decades.
...but those rapid increases came with an important caveat: whenever housing prices increase as quickly as they have in recent years, an economic, stock market, and/or housing crash is almost certain to follow...
