A cool 56 F. here, so I'll need a jacket to work out when I hit the trail in a bit.

Good news: Lousy-ana voted in Rs for sec'y of state, treasurer, and atty. general, plus Landry the R will be governor. Now if we could just get a sane person as mayor of this dump. No real chance of that; the city is composed overwhelmingly of a group who, shall we say, goes for the D every time.

6 Listening to Pretend Republicans, Margaret Hoover and Brad Raffensburger, is quite interesting. How they can claim that everything was on the up-and-up in the 2020 election is incomprehensible? Cowards. They fear losing their establishment cred.

27 mornin yall. Biden is giving 170 million dollars to companies like Mitsubishi and Honeywell to encourage heat pump production. They are serious about doing away with natural gas by artificially skewing the market. Same as with cars. Biden will be dead and gone by the time these schemes fail miserably but he will go to his grave thinking he was the greatest president ever. I only hope that happens sooner than later.

Approximately 72 percent of refugees upon arrival are "below basic", which is sometimes described as functionally illiterate, and that percentage declines to 58 percent five years later.
The combination of low English literacy and low levels of education — about half of all recent refugees age 16 and over did not arrive with a high school diploma — suggest that it will be a long time before today's refugees become net fiscal contributors, if at all.

You are correct. At the facility where I play indoors now that colder weather has arrived, almost everyone uses the outdoor balls. The only difference has to do with how they react to wind. The number and size of the holes supposedly makes a difference.

1) Netanyahu is usually LESS popular before Elections are announced than during an actual Election when the stark differences of the people and parties are actually right in your face
2) As I have been saying Netanyahu has been PM for the better part of the last 15 years and is partially responsible for Oct 7th, no matter how you cut it
3) Gallant is a former Senior General
4) Gallant has played the part of Defense Minister well since this crisis has begun

I am not knocking Gallant or Netanyahu at the moment, just pointing out Israeli Politics is unusual. And I would just be careful till after the War is over and things play out before paying attention to any polls

Prior to covid, if you did not have it you could no longer fly after - I seem to recall - sometime in 2020. But then they didn't want to have people coughing and sneezing in the DMV so deadline went bye bye. It will probably get resurrected at some point, because of course.

96 One of the most common paths to getting a Real ID is by upgrading your next Drivers License to Real ID.

And it has some significant document requirements to qualify. Mostly for married and or divorced women who need copies of marriage and divorce decrees to qualify.

A Federal Law to make states actually identify the person requesting the ID. It requires real state, local, and federal IDs to prove that person in a citizen. It was for the safety of our transportation systems to decrease the ability of foreign agents to hijack and terrorize.
It was to go into 7 years after passing but is now moved to May of 25. It will ground around 40 million when it takes effect.

104 Turley: Smith has admitted that Trump’s election claims were protected under the First Amendment, but claims that, at some point, they became criminal lies. But Smith fails to explain when that line was clearly crossed — a dangerous ambiguity for free speech, particularly in the context of an election.


I guess the line was so clear that congress had to pass a law after the fact to say there is a line.

it should have been a standard decades when the law was passed in 2005, in response to 9/11, but they keep changing the deadline. SO now 20 years later and it's still not the standard. It was supposed to replace the DL/ID because to get on a plane you use a DL. And every state had its own rules for giving out ids. So the fed tried to standardize it - show me your proof of birth, name change, social security card etc.

As has been demonstrated in various ways for the last 8 years, they simply decide legit crimes are not crimes for their fellow travelers and made men and women of The Deep State Borg Collective and non-crimes are high crimes and misdemeanors for their adversaries and enemies of the state.

That's the one - if you've lived in a sanctuary state, you know that laws are simply not applied to divine sparks. In Denver, the police and prosecutors are under orders to undercharge the sparks, because a felony might result in deportation. That's not something that's done in the dark; they're quite open about. Spark crimes are just misdemeanors, and that's that.

I think they were trying to present it as a fait accompli' to the Israelis. 2 hours ago, Netanyahu shot the idea down, so to speak.

272 So solar energy is reflected by CO2 back down to water and heats the oceans.
But 100% of nuclear reactors use water to stop the escape of nuclear energy.
So just how fare down does reflected sun (nuclear) energy travel.
Somewhere between 100 feet and 100 meters actual direct sunlight and photosynthesis goes to ZERO.

Yeah, Pennsylvania wants to have hundreds of thousands of voters on the rolls so when the 'extra vote fortifying' ballots appear the fraud looks less obvious.

It was kinda embarrassing in 2020 when between 100,000 and 200,000 'extra' ballots appeared and the state got sued by 20 other states. But the brave men and women of the Supreme Court pissed on that fire until it went out.
