Via: Nerm_L • News Viners • 9 Comments • 4 Likes • 2 years ago
“President Biden's approval rating dropped 5 points in the past week, according to a new Politico-Morning Consult poll.”
Oh, the fickle pointing-finger of Democrats. Just remember --- it's not Biden's fault. Biden is a transformative President that has to be walked back by the White House. Nothing to see here. Literally.

“Biden denounced referendums as an "absolute sham"”
Should have thought about all of this last January, Joe. It's a little late to stage an 'insurrection' to oppose a sham election. Did anyone happen to notice that the Russia referendums depended upon remote voting? People didn't have to go to the polls to vote, how convenient. Supposedly...
Charging your EV at night is about to become more expensive

“Researchers from Stanford University say that EV owners should charge their vehicles during the day rather than at night to avoid higher demand...”
Yep, the alternatives of solar and wind power are less reliable at night. There aren't a lot of options to overcome this problem. EV owners will either need a second battery to recharge their vehicles at night or we continue to rely on fossil fuel generation for nighttime charging. Of course...
Why has fact-checking disappeared under Biden?

“But apparently fact-checkers are mostly on a four-year sabbatical at this point. And it's pathetic.”
No, no, no. There just isn't any such thing as liberal bias in press. The facts speak for themselves. When Republicans are in charge, the press assiduously turns facts into lies. When Democrats are in charge, the press goes to great lengths to turn lies into facts. For the press, the ends...
Ukraine Defense Ministry compares Russian invasion to 9/11

“The Ukrainian Defense Ministry on Sunday compared the Russian invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24 to the terrorist attacks on World Trade Center and the...”
Really? Hey, let's just rewrite history. Facts don't matter. Let's ignore the six months of warnings. Let's ignore Russian troops massed on the borders. Let's ignore that Ukraine had a pretty good idea where Russian troops would cross the borders. Let's ignore Vladimir Putin's prime-time...
NYC Mayor Adams says city is at 'breaking point' with arrival of migrants sent from Texas

“More than 2,200 migrants have been bused to New York City from Texas since last month, prompting Mayor Eric Adams to say the city is at a "breaking...”
What is Mayor Adams complaining about, now? The 'migrants' sent to New York have already been pre-screened. New York hasn't had to deal with the worst of what's coming across the border. Adams doesn't have to worry about the 'migrants' sent to New York causing a spike in crime. If anything,...
Opinion | It's Time for Democrats to Take the Gloves Off and Ban Seditious Republicans From Congress
Via: Nerm_L • News Viners • 18 Comments • 2 Likes • 2 years ago
“President Biden has correctly identified these people as "semi-fascists" and called them out to their faces.”
When does protest become insurrection? The entire argument depends upon the events of Jan. 6th being deemed an insurrection. And it appears that arbitrary partisanship is highly prevalent in declaring the events of Jan. 6th an insurrection. Why were the events of Jan. 6th an insurrection...
Biden approval falls, holding near low end of his presidency, Reuters/Ipsos finds
Via: Nerm_L • News Viners • 74 Comments • 5 Likes • 2 years ago
“The two-day national poll found that 38% of Americans approve of Biden's job performance.”
The dead cat has bounced. Note that the poll included more Democrats than Republicans. So, Biden's popularity among Democrats ain't helping. The top issue is the economy which ain't on the White House list of talking points. And the typical divisive issues aren't going well for Democrats....
If Europe and Japan can have small, cheap EVs, why can't America?

“The automakers will argue that small cars are not profitable in the US”
Europe and Japan are not back water countries without regulations and little affluence. If small EVs are attractive choices and competitive in Europe and Japan then the argument they won't sell in the US rings hollow. Auto makers in the US are taking us down the same road with EVs as they did...
The 2021 Pickman EV Trucks Show Tiny Can Be Tough

“I think there's a real place in the automotive landscape for some tiny, tough, useful little trucks with minimal bullshit, and that's what Pickman...”
It's a real truck and not a golf cart. But the Pickman truck is specifically designed to compete in the marketspace dominated by modified golf carts. And these purpose built micro-EVs will naturally offer better performance than modified vehicles not designed for utility. Micro-EVs are...
