The historian in me feels the need to note that contests between cities and their rural hinterland are not new things and they do not generally go great for the rural folks.
California alone produces a third of all the food America eats. So this is a lie.
But let’s break down the food produced by the red states:
Guess what percent is harvested by people from Latin America?

He's so generous ... with other people's money!
Almost as if he's trying to make everyone forget why so many traffic controllers were fired or left their jobs.
He let Musk run roughshod over the federal agencies, and is now trying to buy everyone's forgiveness with ... their own money.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

Pat and I just got our medical insurance renewal. Our monthly rate is going from $763 to $2,323.
Our deductible went up too.
We knew it was going to be bad with the subsidies expiring, but holy hell ...

Tesla's latest gambit: become a rental car company. As cars pile up in showrooms and storage lots, Elon is trying to rent his way out of a crisis. Good luck, bud. #teslatakedown #MuskMustFall electrek.co/2025/11/10/t...
Tesla can’t sell its cars anymore so it is renting them now
Tesla is launching a new car rental program out of its stores in the US, as sales are crashing due...

Trump wants Americans to go from collective bargaining, where they hold the power, to individual bargaining, where the private insurance companies hold the power.
Prices will go up, coverage and quality of service will go down.

Look man, little seems less appealing to me than going out and negotiating my own insurance. That sounds like a goddamn nightmare. I just want to have insurance and have it be affordable. That’s it. I don’t wanna have to talk to people and negotiate rates and shit. What the fuck.

15 years is the life expectancy of a modern car.
So a 15-year "car loan" is a permanent car rental.
They are just looking for ways to present glorified rentals as ownership.
