  1. That would only apply if fighting crime here had some effect on Haiti.
  2. We need photographic proof of participation...lol

    Lucky me

    Lucky to be in the path. Boss threw a parking lot party. Very cool.
  4. Point taken. Perhaps at least limited. Feels oddly like a dictatorship when a POTUS, with the stroke of a pen can spend billions with no oversight. https://www.federalregister.gov/presidential-documents/executive-orders
  5. I'm constantly amazed at how the usual suspects can take a discussion and turn it into an us/them conversation. I'm not ok with any president's ability to spend billions of our tax money without needing approval. Read that again ANY PRESIDENT. You seem to have a problem with other President's use of the EO. How about chiming in on how wrong it is for any of them.
  6. ALL PRESIDENTS...regardless.
  7. I'm of an opinion that we need to curtail all President's use of these. "Executive orders are not legislation; they require no approval from Congress, and Congress cannot simply overturn them. Congress may pass legislation that might make it difficult, or even impossible, to carry out the order, such as removing funding. Only a sitting U.S. President may overturn an existing executive order by issuing another executive order to that effect." https://www.americanbar.org/groups/public_education/publications/teaching-legal-docs/what-is-an-executive-order-/ Thoughts?
  8. The best motivation for EVs. I'd love to get off the oil tit and out of ME politics. Then they can blow each other back to the stone age for all I care.
  9. https://www.fool.com/the-ascent/insurance/auto/articles/hertz-is-selling-20000-electric-vehicles-heres-why-thats-a-bad-sign-for-ev-costs/#:~:text=Hertz recently announced that it,news for used EV buyers. Looks like the shine is off the penny for Hertz.
  10. Waking up to the fact that wind and solar won't get the job done here on the North coast.
  11. i doubt Trump needed pence for that.
  12. Much like Palin I don't like political appointees designed to sway voters feeling based on sex or race vs. ability.
  13. The law of averages.
  14. I guess I must be incapable of independent thinking
  15. I don't think Biden can handle 4 more years of the toughest job there is. I believe a vote for him is actually going to be a vote for his running mate. Many here don't feel that way. I'm on record.
  16. I'm conservative and I don't care. I only care when children are medically encouraged to change genders. I think it;s wrong.
  17. Mark my words. Joe will not make it another 4 years in this job. I’m curious to know if he will switch running mates.
  18. What they really need to worry about is gender neutral toy stores. https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/01/us/gender-neutral-toy-aisles-are-now-law-in-california/index.html#:~:text=California Gov.,toys that are gender-neutral.&text=Major retailers in California are,under a new state law.
  19. What's ironic about these types of things is how many products are available in a grocery store with plastic packaging. I believe somewhere was a manufacturer of these heavy plastic bags that lobbied for this rule.
  20. Probably. I know zero about the systems
  21. Rox said when she drove it this week the motor was not as quiet as she remembered. At one point it went completely dead. She couldn’t get in because the door handles wouldn’t pop out. She did manage to open the trunk and magically it all came back.
  22. Because it happened quickly. Maybe I’m wrong. I’ve never sold a vehicle to Carvana
  23. I don't know the details of the Carvana sale. I can only assume the current troubles are not known to them.
  24. I said a few years back that as soon as the economic reality of the cost of addressing climate change becomes real the support for those changes will fall of dramatically.
