They have come a long way. We had a 2007 that got 19mpg around town and had a CVT that hunted as badly as Elmer Fudd but…I loved that van. It was powerful and hauled anything the average person needed to haul.

These guys ARE that stupid. Keep in mind that these clowns redacted documents by highlighting them in black. Like morons! Or did the redactor really want us to see the full documents? 🤔

They are, without a doubt, the dumbest fascists out there. Thank God (Crom) for that. Even an unskilled Adobe user like myself knows how to redact properly.

Our 2020 Nissan Leaf main battery was replaced last spring at 25K miles and it cost us…..nothing. That’s 5 years of driving and zero maintenance. If we get 5 more at the same cost, zero, how in the hell is that a bad thing? Love our EV!

Couldn’t care less at this point. We have dropped CBS from our TV viewing until the fascists are gone and some semblance of ethics returns. It’ll be years……

I’m not sure which country could provide troops that would be accepted by both sides. It’s a guarantee that whomever does will loose troops and for what reward?

I would be a little scared but hope the owl was friendly. I believe you know what you are doing though.

I hope those letters don’t leave marks when we remove them in 3 years.

Even at 12, I still found Star Wars more plausible than Moonraker, but it was fun. This was also the year of “The Wall” being released, which is what my dad took my friends and I to see for my birthday in Dec, 79. The vehicle were always the stars in Bond movies to me.

In his world of “Dementia” he rules with complete power. In this world, he just lies and is told things he says, have happened. Is that $1776 tax free or will it be taxed like a bonus? So many questions. Following my friend’s grandson to see when he gets his check.

Wow! Congrats. You two look so young in the wedding photos and so happy today.

For all these reasons, we also don’t care for him. I hadn’t watched a complete MI movie since the first one because of the plausibility gap. He is not a good human.

Ally-Agreed. Being retired military with a little ptsd, I would have expected the gunman to have another weapon and shot him. We are all different but I can live with this decision. Also, that was a shotgun so you can just aim at his lower torso. Guy is a hero though.

Couldn’t remember if he drank 2 or 3 six packs? Didn’t think he was drunk? Only someone who abuses alcohol on a regular basis can say such a thing. WTF! I’d be hammered after one six pack and I’m 6’ and 205lbs.

Agreed! Wife and I are traveling through Sweden and brought the Apple TV with VPN just to be certain we saw the show last night, so nobody could spoil it.

Thought the same and came to the same conclusion. Must have asked. Great show though. Watching in Sweden using VPN so we don’t miss an episode. :-)

We need a single sheet description of what the Democratic Party stands for. We know exactly what the Republican Party stands for now. The nation has seen the hate from the right and there is no “well they don’t mean that” anymore. We need to show how immigration helps.

Yup. 20 years served in the military medical field to preserve what? Especially as an idealistic immigrant. We got screwed. Sorry for your loss.

Reading the other day about how many people require remedial math skills when entering ANY school after high school. These same people think tariffs are good!

Biggest problem out of all this is the amount of Americans in power who support this and those who voted for it. They knew it was going to get looney and are now happy with the results. These are our neighbors doing this and not some mythical “voter”. What the hell has happened to America!
