Every Long Hauler knows that an electric semi is a bad joke, an absurdity. Think Eisenhower Pass in Colorado. Think what 15,000 lbs of batteries might do to your long haul payload requirement of 30,000 lbs. Who’s paying you to haul those batteries around? And after that mountain pass has drained your batteries like GPS on a smartwatch, think about all those trucks on the side of the road half way up(lucky) Eisenhower Pass or the 4 mountain passes on I90(in Montana alone!) …. ad nauseum all across the western half of the country. But it wouldn’t even take a mountain pass, really. That 30,000 lbs, now reduced to 15,000 payload and 15,000 lbs of batteries, won’t even get you 20% of the way across Interstate 20, flat as a pancake for much of its length. Then there’s the recharging nightmare. Forget about it. Love’s Truckstops are laughing their asses off, for now. If and when the time comes it won’t be funny and they will let you know exactly what they think.
These people really do think we are dumb as boxes of rocks.

Do Not Get Sick
Item: “Minority Contracting Comes to Medicine”.
Tarrant County’s [Texas] public hospital system, JPS Health, evaluates bids for contracts on a 100-point scale that gives more weight to “diversity and inclusion” (15 points) than to the reputation of a vendor’s goods and services (10 points) when assessing providers of transcatheter heart valves—devices used to counteract cardiac failure and keep blood flowing throughout the body.
This is only one of an increasing many similar stories. Medicine, like every other activity, is determined to DIE. They want you to DIE with them, and when you do, you die.
If you get sick, you won’t know if the quack you see was given his license because she could DIE, or because she can heal. Best not to take the chance: do not get sick. Or, if you do, stay away from doctors.
As a long time follower, the loss of NPR, as a truth source, was difficult for me. Their bias became obvious through omission, as opposed to in your face controversy. I have learned much about the risks, hazards and deaths associated with the mRNA injections. All documented, irrefutable information and data adverse to these injections. NPR, as an objective news source, has an obligation to present all possibilities on all subjects. Yet NPR has never and likely will never announce any news that would cast even a tiny shadow on the risk side of these injections. Seeing that and realizing that our Government along with the B&M Gates Foundation are the primary funding sources for NPR exposed NPR as just another major media captured whore. A sad recognition.
Our culture is under attack from every direction. Progressives in Congress and the courts have done everything they can to degrade the bedrock of our nation, our Constitution. They have allowed muslim insurgents to use our guaranteed freedom of religion to recruit adherents for their jihad aimed at our culture and national security. A coalition of perverts are woking throughout our culture and now in our schools to debase the moral fabric of our culture, now, as I have long predicted,pushing to have pedophilia recognized as an approved “sexual preference”. And today we have a dementia riddled surrogate of heaven only knows what source destroying our economy, our food supply and our energy dependency all in the name of the farcical climate change. We need to fight back but it is beconing increasingly unclear as to against whom?
I’ve been thinking how many of us are down lately. I wanted to mention these people we are up against are not all that smart. They are just average evil intended crooks similar to the thieves that stole my tools out of my garage years back. Ask yourself a question, does this government really represent the American citizen? It’s pretty obvious, they absolutely don’t. In 2020 there were two major soldier homes in Massachusetts one in Chelsea and one in Holyoke. The previous RINO governor Baker had oversight on these facilities and when the pandemic began pandemic rules flew out the window and they grouped healthy people with people showing signs of Covid. In the end over a hundred veterans died because of Bakers policies put in place. In fact the soldiers home in Chelsea was closed. The state ended up paying out 56 million dollars to the families. Even today veterans have been found in urine soaked clothes laying in their feces. Rodent, rodent droppings and bugs infest the Holyoke soldiers home. Veterans in Massachusetts beg for benefits that by law they deserve and are treated like worthless nobodies. Governor Maura Healy has begun the process of completely renovating the old Chelsea soldiers home to house 100 illegal families. They plan on having a state of the art facility with free housing free food, free cable, free internet, free health care, free transportation, free everything. All this after the state government killed off the old worthless veterans that gave Maura her undeserved freedom her whole evil rotten life. These people are some of the most corrupt inhumane graceless people I know. But their not masterminds. Their actually quite stupid people that worry about all the evils they have committed. Good will win. As we have seen in history this democrat party and all of its tentacles are beginning to be looked at as liars deceivers and crooks. The more they push their deceptions the more insignificant they become. Eventually there influence over us will wither away because no one will believe them. If you think about it it’s happening as we speak. J.Goodrich
If this admin. were actually trying to crash our economy.... What exactly would they be doing differently?
What... There is no market for EVs? Let's double down on dumb!
After 35 years in the trucking business as both an operator and an owner I don't have to work too hard to come up with multiple reasons why EVs are not suitable for anything but extremely consistent local/short haul day hauling. Throw in climate variability across our country and the limitations of EVs become so obvious one has to wonder at the motives of someone who would still be advocating for such foolishness.
That Lorenzo horse video made my day! The cartoons were more sad reality than funny, which was always the purpose of a large percent of cartoons through all of history. MEMES RULE!
The EPA along with a lot of other federal agencies needs to go bye-bye. This is just another example of a dictatorship by proxy. They are just a bunch of unelected bureaucrats living out their wet dreams.
There are subsets of these student loans that need to be forgiven. The problem is that they are not telling us which loans they are forgiving.
Some people were promised by the Gov that if they worked in underserved areas for 5 years their loans would be forgiven - the Gov has yet to honor their promise.
Other people took out loans at very high interest rates and because of the type of loans they were never allowed to refinance at lower rates. I know of several people that borrowed $100k decades ago, have paid back $250K, and still owe almost $500K. It is simple usury and abuse and wage slavery implemented by the Gov and it should not be allowed - they paid their loans back Plus More.
My buddy runs a manufacturing business in CA. They make equipment like the big water trucks that spray water at construction sites and on roads.
The State of CA is now crippling his business as they are now requiring every other truck be built on an EV Platform.
You can imagine why no one will buy the EV water Trucks when they carry 80,000 lbs of water plus the weight of the truck and they have to charge every 1-3 hours. Imagine being at a construction site and trying to find an EV charger??? go figure.
The Uri Berliner article. Excellent. Add us to the group of people who have had to leave what has become the utterly disingenuous, fallacious, echo chamber called NPR. All beauty and wonder erased. Their motto, "Leave your critical thinking behind, you cannot discern for yourself, just follow us, and obey". Abhorrent. Aberrant. May Mr. Berliner's thoughts and moral strength prevail. Yes, moral strength. Morality. Standards. They are immutable, truly applied, they never carry a party banner. Bravo Mr. Berliner. We will not always agree you and us, (defunding may indeed be needed to rid us of this parody of public interest journalism, we do not subscribe to all that you may espouse), however if your dreams of having NPR return to its roots were to come true, we would, and gratefully, join again.
We need some cartoons related to the media machine desperately trying to conjure up another George Floyd as we get closer to election season. Every 4 years guaranteed!
Everything else went out of my mind when I watched Lorenzo. He started very young, and he’s an extraordinary athlete. But how he trains those horses to do what they do! One thing I wondered about is his jumping up and down on the horses’ backs. Wouldn’t that hurt them? Or does distributing his weight over two horses keep the weight on one within tolerable limits?

Rule #1: CO2 is not a pollutant.
Rule #2: If in doubt, see rule #1!

Seen on a Nissan Leaf bumper sticker on a car parked at a laundromat in Morgantown, WV: “This vehicle powered by coal!”.
#killswitch mandate in 2026 is the brain child of More government overreach.
This NOT #Democracy. Our country’s infrastructure is unlike #Europe where trains are primary transportation.
Why chance a vote today for Dems? #Dictatorship . New Leadership is Imperative.
The EPA along with a lot of other federal agencies needs to go bye-bye. This is just another example of a dictatorship by proxy. They are just a bunch of unelected bureaucrats living out their wet dreams.
