For one thing, as an administration insider says, it’s a twist on previous efforts that funded “specific causes”. For another, most foreign funding was usually bipartisan otherwise it would have been killed by subsequent presidents from the

The poster is obviously being sarcastic… They’re suggesting that threats about Iran attacking US cities serve the same purpose as the propaganda about Iraq harboring WMDs. To gin up the public for war.

Yeah, but making opening doors a puzzle to solve is an incredibly terrible trade off. And that’s before we consider the other aspects of these door handle designs that make the cars a death trap.

Tesla deserves credit but it’s not Tesla that accelerated the world. It’s China. Even today Ford’s CEO talks about Chinese cars when discussing what they’re worried about, not Tesla. And then there’s also the battery cost revolution which i

Nope. Globalism has made America richer than pretty much any nation in the existence of human history. The election of leaders who prioritize the distribution of wealth from the poorest to the richest rather than vice versa has hollowed out

If the $45 is meant to be temporary, it can reasonably be looked as a fine to encourage people to get their RealID. I don’t think the existence of the fine itself is necessarily evidence of a cash grab. If it isn’t temporary and extends bey
