They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics.
Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

The GOP's strategy:
1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.
2) Explode the deficit.
3) Demand cuts to programs that millions of people rely on.
4) Repeat.
They're trying it again this week. Don't let them get away with it.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Maybe constantly belittling liberals, the core demographic for EVs, while shamelessly pandering to MAGA, a group that makes fun of people who buy EVs, wasn’t such a bright approach to boosting sales of your EVs.

This is a great question for all of congress to think about.
Hypothetically,If FEMA goes away, what happens to home owners and other insurance rates ?
Climate change looks like it will make rates so high, home insurers will want equity in your house as a way of holding down rates

I wonder how much the dissolution of FEMA and cancellation of flooding infrastructure programs is going to increase insurance premiums?
Especially as the population ages, inflation spikes, and a large % of housing stock is used as short term rentals in high risk areas.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
