Electric vehicles catch fire after being exposed to saltwater from Hurricane Idalia - Essay by Eric Worrall 
"My question – could salt spray from a windy day at the beach also trigger a deadly battery fire?

“Saltwater exposure can trigger combustion in lithium-ion batteries. If possible, transfer your vehicle to higher ground,” the Palm Beach fire department wrote in a Facebook post. 

Two electric vehicles in Palm Beach, Florida caught fire after being exposed to saltwater from Hurricane Idalia, according to reports...

“If you own a hybrid or electric vehicle that has come into contact with saltwater due to recent flooding within the last 24 hours, it is crucial to relocate the vehicle from your garage without delay,” the department wrote in a Facebook post...

"It was all for nothing. Really, for nothing. 
  • The miseries we inflicted on ourselves after March 2020 — the school closures, the ruined businesses, the debts, the authoritarianism — were caused by a moment of lightheaded panic.
How can I be so sure? 
Because, three-and-a-half years on, the results are in. 
And, let me warn you, they make dismal reading for anyone who went along with the lockdowns. 
You see, there was a counterfactual all along.

CNBC's List of 'Worst States to Live In' Perfectly Illustrates the Left's Political Pathology - By Bonchie
"...CNBC is here to let you know what the "10 worst states to live in" are. 
Apparently, many of you are living in an oppressive third-world hellhole and just didn't know it. 
Thankfully, our liberal betters are here to set the record straight.
So what are the states in question? 
  • Coming in at number 10 is Florida, followed by Arkansas, Tennessee, Indiana, Missouri, Alabama, South Carolina, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas. 
Yes, according to these geniuses, one of the most popular destinations in the country is actually the worst state to live in.
What are the reasons given? 
Here's what the "study" says about Tennessee... (read 'em all!)

Tennessee has enthusiastically passed laws targeting LGBTQ+ rights, even if it has meant crossing the bounds of constitutionality — like a ban on drag shows where children are present...

'Horrified' hospital employee leaks DEI training pushing 3-year-olds identifying as transgender | Fox News
"A "horrified" hospital employee at Kaiser Permanente leaked a sex change training for diversity, equity and inclusion, which promoted the idea that a 3-year-old can be transgender.
"The employee, who wishes to remain anonymous for fear of losing her job, was horrified," according to the Wednesday report from Libs of TikTok.
As part of the hospital system's DEI training, medical employees were expected to watch a video with children explaining they knew they were transgender at age 3 and 4.

From One Unapologetic Media Hoax to the Next

From One Unapologetic Media Hoax to the Next - Victor Davis Hanson
"...Yet the media can no longer hide the reality that the president of the United States likely took bribes to influence or alter U.S. policy to suit his payers. 
Those two crimes -- bribery and treason -- are delineated explicitly in the Constitution as impeachable offenses.
In denial, the media has instead pivoted with hysterical glee over various weaponized prosecutions of former President Donald Trump.
But now, to use a progressive catchphrase, the proverbial "walls are closing in" on Joe Biden.
So will we at last expect the media to confront the truth?
  • Answer -- only if Joe Biden's cognitive and physical health continues to deteriorate geometrically to the point that he can no longer finish his term or run for reelection -- and thus becomes expendable.
Such a cynical view of the media is justified, given their record of both incompetence and unapologetic deceit...

Biden's ATF creating sneaky backdoor against gun owners

The next year he was at it again, announcing huge restrictions on dealers to make guns harder to sell and therefore more expensive to buy. The irony here is that criminals are not affected by any of Biden's rules. Criminals don't attend gun shows or buy guns from a law-abiding neighbor. All these orders and regulations only serve to make it more difficult for normal citizens to exercise their right to bear arms.

The Democrat Governor of Massachusetts has activated the National Guard following an outcry by aid groups as the state sees an influx of illegal immigrants due to the Southern Border crisis. 

The blue state had been insulated in previous years from the repercussions of lax border policies, but campaigns by Republican governors to bus illegal immigrants to "sanctuary" jurisdictions have changed the game...

Lunch video-----The Bayesian Trap

"I didn't say it explicitly in the video, but in my view the Bayesian trap is interpreting events that happen repeatedly as events that happen inevitably. They may be inevitable OR they may simply be the outcome of a series of steps, which likely depend on our behaviour. Yet our expectation of a certain outcome often leads us to behave just as we always have which only ensures that outcome. To escape the Bayesian trap, we must be willing to experiment.

Renewable Fail: East Coast Aussie States Are Failing or About to Fail Energy Reliability Standards -
Essay by Eric Worrall - First published JoNova;
"...Once you cut through the “opportunity” doublespeak, the stark reality is South Australia has already fallen below the reliability standard. 
Other states are set to join them in the near future – NSW (2025-25), Victoria (2026-27) and Queensland (2029-30 and 2030-31)...
Any businesses operating in South Australia, New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland are sometimes required by the government to curtain operations to reduce the risk of domestic supply blackouts during periods of peak demand, like heatwaves or cold snaps.
Why has the outlook suddenly worsened?...
