The PTB are already planning for dealing with the Trump deportations!

Awesome non-tariff barrier to globalist fuck-over of America:

Leave it to government to get this one exactly backward - bail on standard time and keep daylight savings year round. No one can use the earlier sunrise for anything but commute or a brighter coffee, but sunset at 6p vs 5pm gives enough time for outdoor activity following work or school. Who really wants to be off work and having dark free time most months?

Doesn't really matter what people want. It's dark regardless of where you live outside of Southern FL or TX. This is why in the Merry Xmas thread I said this time of year pisses me off. We've had no snow and everything is just dead. I'm whining, but it's miserable here in IL. Xmas lights on houses don't do it for me and just piss me off more.

Finally have someone positive news mostly. Permits are done. $10k permit fees mother fuckers though. Probably 2-3 site visits and then a final CO visit. Total value for taking two months to process and then doing nothing. Hoping to have this new house by my birthday in June. I'll re-up my previous house thread and try not to derail other threads like I always do.

Imagine how dangerous it would be for a multinational with offices in Hong Kong or Dubai to control our Port Facilities with automatic remote coded/maintained systems.

Military is a non-starter. As mentioned before by the horse I beat dead, there's no utility and range. You're f'd if you run out of electric. Office type military whatever in a sedan, if they get stranded in DC who gives a shit. For combat, a big hell no.

I actually don't care if federal vehicles go EV route, but just expect higher expenses. Not sure how DOGE would handle this. EV's are more expensive. Musk is there.

I sometimes think Trump likes chaos to confuse. EV government vehicles and Musk is in charge of cutting costs??? That makes no sense.

How did Elon Musk end the spending bill?

He didn't. Just delayed it.

Also:

The Dems are like crackheads being evicted from their crack house for unpaid rent and fucking it up as much as possible on the way out.

LOL! Encouraging the Dems to self infiltrate with their dumbest Soros fecal impaction. Well, they're the ones that put her in there. Trump cracks me up.

Or Trump wants a shot at those fun balloons.

How does that jive with Musk? This is where I get frustrated with Trump. Tosses a bunch of ideas out and little gets done. I get the art of the deal, but you created a non-governmental agency with an EV manufacturer and then say he's going to have to pay more to manufacture his cars? What's going to get cut? Definitely not EV's.
