LOL!  You mean like a big-screen projection TV?  Or a Commodore 64 computer?  Or an IBM 087 sorter?  Or a rotary wall telephone with a hand-crank?

No, I mean Racing. Even hopping lights and Outlaw 1/4 mile. The REAL THING, even on the street.

Nah. You've never been in a quarter mile car or a drag rail, have you? And this coming from a guy who actually worked on an electric mini-drag rail, back in the day.

And I am perfectly happy to admit the superior torque that comes from an electric motor. That ain't the only consideration.

And I hope you have the money... because that EV will be worth nothing in a few years when the battery goes out of it.

How about a steam locomotive?  I'm sure Conestoga Wagon factory workers used the same argument back in the day.

Brazile: Supreme Court Close to Election Interference, ‘Justice Delayed Is Democracy Denied’

Pam Key 28 Apr 2024

Democratic strategist Donna Brazile said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that after listening to oral arguments, the Supreme Court was close to “election interference” with their consideration of former President Donald Trump’s immunity claim.

Brazile said, “I’ve never been here before, and I never thought in the years, almost 30 years that i worked in presidential politics and campaigns that I would ever have to figure out some talking points when your opponent in the case of Donald Trump is sitting in court all day and not on the campaign trail.”

She continued, “I have to make a statement, because I remember Bush v. Gore as if it were yesterday. I do believe that the Supreme Court is dangling into election interference by slowing it down. I’m not a lawyer, but I had to listen to the oral arguments the other day. What I heard again was, they weren’t talking about the facts of the case. They were coming up with all these hypotheticals. They should go ahead and allow this trial on January 6th to go forward in the district court, and we should know the results before the election.”

She added, “You can still argue the timing. I mean the district court of appeal rendered this decision in February. Jack Smith said all along, the special counsel, said back in December, go ahead. make the decision and they are dragging their feet.”

She concluded, “Justice delayed is democracy denied. That’s what’s at stake.”

The amount of cobalt used in EV's is minuscule to the amount used in all the electronic goods and industry out there.

Still, the amount of cobalt available is not enough to turn merely England all-electric.  *Just England*

Joe Biden’s DHS Keeps Detention Space Unfilled as Criminal Illegal Aliens End Up in American Communities
 
JOHN BINDER28 Apr 202498
 
President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) continues to keep detention space unfilled as several recent cases revealed that criminal illegal aliens were released into American communities after crossing the United States-Mexico border.

As of April 25, DHS had just a little more than 34,000 illegal aliens in its detention facilities — a fraction of the 6.2 million illegal aliens who, by the end of Fiscal Year 2023, are in deportation proceedings but are living throughout the U.S. on the Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) non-detained docket.


The low detention rate comes after Congress approved 41,500 ICE beds for the rest of the fiscal year, far above the 25,000 ICE beds that DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas requested.

I drove a Tesla and it gives a tremendous ride/torque/response, quietness. Once you drive one you will understand why they will take over ICE cars
SO yes I am looking at the new Toyota EV's when they come out later this year or early next.

I have a most excellent plan for them.  Put stones in tin cans, so many stones per can different in each sector so the sounds are different.  Then when the enemy kicks a can, the Army will know where the attack is coming.  Problem solved. *****rollingeyes*****

Army officials question plan for future attack reconnaissance

DENVER — After canceling the Future Attack Reconnaissance Aircraft program earlier this year, the U.S. Army has yet to earnestly invest in its manned attack helicopter or other capability to fill the armed recon role, and service leaders warn that without a clear plan, its ability to fight as effectively in future wars could be in jeopardy.

The Army has talked about how unmanned systems and sensors will largely perform such a mission along with the AH-64E Apache attack helicopter when required, but little money is programmed to be spent on the aircraft in the coming years.


While there are plenty of ideas streaming in from industry, the service is still working through technology that will be critical to integrate pilots, drones and soldiers on the ground to fill the mission and has yet to present a clear upgrade plan for the Apache.

And even four-star combatant commanders have questions.
