Thursday's Dance of the Absurdities: People We Should and Should Not Admire
Elon Musk - who I find myself increasingly admiring these days - punked Old Joe Biden one more time on Twitter yesterday with this exchange:
Oooof. That hurts.
Here’s the truth about Ford, GM and electric vehicles: Ford’s and GM’s up-front investments and commitments to rapidly convert their fleets were made in anticipation that the Democrats in congress would be able to push through the “Build Back Better” bill last year. That bill contained more than $550 billion in new and expanded subsidies for the rent-seeking wind, solar and EV industries, including a new, $12,500 per unit subsidy for buyers of EVs.
That bill died, thanks to Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema, God bless them. Biden and Chuck Schumer keep talking about trying to pass all that stuff in smaller pieces this year, but the Senate math seems very daunting for such an effort. The reality is that if that massive new subsidy doesn’t somehow get passed into law, Ford’s and GM’s appetite for EVs is likely to fade very rapidly.
Tesla, on the other hand, is a fully mature business now, one that is flourishing without the massive new subsidy, and one that has secured its supply chains of needed critical minerals like lithium for the next decade, unlike its competitors. It is true that Musk built his business on the back of government subsidies, but his rent-seeking days are largely in the past now. Ford’s and GM’s days, on the other hand, may never be allowed to really begin.
Poor babies.
Speaking of people I find myself admiring more and more every day, I give you Ron DeSantis:
"I mean, please take them off,” Desantis said to a group of students wearing their masks for show, "Honestly, it’s not doing anything. And we gotta stop with this Covid theater."
Yes, yes we do.
How important are supply lines during wartime? A 40-mile-long Russian convoy has been stalled north of Kyiv for 3 days now due to lack of fuel and food:
Reminiscent of the crucial role American/Allied supply lines played in their victory at the Battle of the Bulge, which led to final victory in Europe in WWII.
Energy security IS security. Remember that as the Democrat party continues its efforts to destroy America’s own energy security.
And now for people I don’t admire…
Joe Biden is not really a Catholic - he just plays one on his TelePrompter:
How do you spell ‘hypocrite’? D-E-M-O-C-R-A-T.
Hey, I wonder if she talks about Bill Gates’s long friendship with Jeffrey Epstein?
I’m betting not. But here the two buddies are:
That’s not a photo-shop, or a conspiracy theory.
Ok, shit’s getting really serious now…
Meanwhile, Sean Hannity appears to have completely lost his mind:
Now I remember why I quit watching or listening to him 4 years ago. Holy crap.
Finally, I will leave you with this:
That is all.
I’m just gonna run this up the flagpole and see if sticks. We know with certainty that the Globalists/Democrats/Neocon Repubs/WEF & the MSM are ALL cheering the Ukrainians on with every ounce of energy they can muster. We know this group of people is our #1 Enemy. We know they are supreme liars and that they hate us and want us dead. These same people are doing everything they can to bring about the “Great Reset.” We also know they are about to get crushed this fall in the elections, possibly in an irrecoverable way. And they know this, too. So ask yourself, if you were playing a game of chess and the loser dies and you saw that the game was getting close to the end you are about to lose, might’n you just knock the board over and try to take everyone with you? If you were in a theater and the police were closing in on you, might’n you yell fire! And if you wanted to start a fight, but not be accused of starting it, might’n you provoke a bully into taking the first swing? This is what’s happening. The Cabal is hellbent on not going down without taking as many people with them as possible and if they have to start WWIII and let the chips fall where they may, then so be it. And they might just succeed at getting their depop and reset agendas accomplished all in one fell swoop. This is made all the more a likely scenario since Bill “man-boobs” Gates publicly declared the pandemic over by stating that Omicron was the ultimate vaccine, “sadly.” Once the truth slowly starts to become impossible to ignore, and the trials begin, many rich and powerful people are going to get nailed. That cannot be allowed. So, enter WWIII, with nukes and all. And they can easily blame it all on Putin, who really has no choice but to take this course because failure is not an option and ceding all of the Russian border countries to Europe and the West is not an option. Ukraine is just a pawn in all of this.
“Energy is security”, wisdom of the day!
