via Hackaday by Maya Posch on Thu, 14 Nov 2024 12:00:19 GMT
It’s not much of a secret that Texas’ nearly completely isolated grid is in a bit of a pickle, with generating capacity often being handily outstripped during periods of extreme …read more

Yes, Politics is a Zero-Sum Game

via Center for a Stateless Society by Eric F. on Thu, 14 Nov 2024 12:00:18 GMT
I find fodder for op-eds in some of the strangest places. I came across this video (“Politics is NOT a zero-sum game,” by Shai Davidai) in a HIT posted on Amazon Mechanical Turk by Davidai — an academic study in which he gauged viewers’ reactions to it. (For those who don’t know, Mechanical Turk is...

The Recess Game

via Simple Justice by SHG on Thu, 14 Nov 2024 12:18:29 GMT
Some brilliant Trump guy informed me that elections have consequences when my reaction to the announcement that Trump would nominate Matt Gaetz to be Attorney General was “no.” And he wasn’t wrong that elections have consequences, but that doesn’t mean anything goes. The glory day of Marco Rubio as Secretary of State was over. Whether […]

The Tremors of Trump’s DC Comeback

via Liberty Nation News by Mark Angelides on Thu, 14 Nov 2024 12:16:45 GMT

By Mark Angelides

President-elect Donald Trump appears to be in the midst of political machinations that could upend the business-as-usual approach to governance in the nation’s capital. With the GOP House majority now official and Senate leadership in place, there is growing suspicion that the former and future president is engaged in a series of gambits that will […]

Donald Trump Cabinet Nominee Poker: Aces, Eights – and Wild Cards

via Liberty Nation News by Graham J Noble on Thu, 14 Nov 2024 12:15:35 GMT

By Graham J Noble

On Nov. 13, President-elect Donald Trump traveled to Washington, DC, where he met with congressional Republicans before visiting the White House at the invitation of the man he will succeed, Joe Biden. It was perhaps a refreshing moment of civility between two men who have spent most of the last five years excoriating each other. […]

Is Legacy Media Counting on Another Trump Bump?

via Liberty Nation News by Corey Smith on Thu, 14 Nov 2024 12:14:56 GMT

By Corey Smith

Shh … can anybody hear that? It could be the sound of legacy media outlets collectively sighing, furtively relieved not to have to report on Kamala Harris for the next four years. What would they talk about? How many articles can somebody write discussing the semantics of a cackle or attempting to translate a muddled […]

Will Orange Man Save the Miata From Climate Communism?

via EPautos  Libertarian Car Talk by eric on Thu, 14 Nov 2024 11:16:00 GMT

There is a vile rumor afoot that is probably true. It is that Mazda is planning – more finely, has been planning – to turn the Miata sports car into a device; i.e., a battery-powered thing that is called “Miata.” It may still have an engine – even a rotary engine, like the no-longer-made RX-7. […]

By Andrew Moran

It has been eight days since President-elect Donald Trump secured a second term, defeating Vice President Kamala Harris in what was billed as the most important election in US history. Whether the hyperbole was accurate or not, the Trump effect was observed in the financial markets, which rallied as if it were the greatest day […]

The West Buries a Genocide – by Making Victims of Israel’s Football Thugs

via LewRockwell by No Author on Thu, 14 Nov 2024 04:01:00 GMT

If the West was really worried about Europe’s Nazi past, it would be better advised to stop stoking an all-too-real new antisemitism: incitement against Arab and Muslim minorities There has never been a harder time to do political and media analysis than right now. Each day, the western establishment unmoors itself further from reality. Its priorities are so inverted, so obscene, that the most appropriate response is ridicule. The latest example was the reaction late last week to violent clashes in Amsterdam before and after a match between Maccabi Tel Aviv and the local team Ajax. The ridiculous framing from western politicians, … Continue reading

This Is How the Government Is Stopping You From Living Independently

via LewRockwell by No Author on Thu, 14 Nov 2024 04:01:00 GMT

It’s been a very long time since I have had warm feelings about my government. The corruption at the highest level is blatant and they don’t even attempt to hide it anymore. Here are 9 ways the government is stopping you from living independently. Limiting Freedom Of Speech I chose the limiting of speech as the first stop on this ride because of how important your speech is. In 2020 we saw the full force of censorship on social media platforms, media outlets, and some people even suffered the consequences of losing jobs over speech. The revelations in the Twitter … Continue reading

Synodal Fallout: Putting Light Under Bushel Baskets

via LewRockwell by No Author on Thu, 14 Nov 2024 04:01:00 GMT

Lower the Vexilla Regis. Raise the white of flag of surrender. The Synodal Church has arrived. Where Christ once declared victory in the red blood of His Cross, the Synodalists bleat in the pastels of accommodation. Their white flag was a shameless admission that the Church of 2024 no longer has anything to say. Of course, much was said.  And said. And said again. But it was “a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing” (Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 17). Sad that the whole world should witness the once mighty Roman Church reduce itself to such self-parody. … Continue reading

The Establishment Is Disarming the Trump Insurrection

via LewRockwell by Paul Craig Roberts on Thu, 14 Nov 2024 04:01:00 GMT

It is dangerous for Trump supporters to think that the battle is over with the election victory. The battle has not begun, and it never will if Trump cannot put together a fighting administration. There are about 4,000 political appointees in the Executive branch, 1,200 of which have to be confirmed in office by the Senate. The confirmation power gives the Senate input in controlling staffing in a presidential administration. Trump and his transition team do not know 1,200 people, much less 4,000. Desperate to get a government underway, their inquiries will result in input from many sources, especially from … Continue reading
