The president suspected that “MAGA sympathizers” were embedded in the service because the agency is “is full of white ex-cops from the South who tend to be deeply conservative,” the book says.
Biden “wasn’t taking any chances,” Whipple writes. “Wary of his own Secret Service agents, the president no longer spoke freely in their presence.”
81M denounce this or encourage it now, it’s confusing keeping up with what is bad and good depending on who’s in office
Gotta love #2 - the CA mandated move to EVs. We've just watched weather related rolling blackouts and attacks on power grids. The power grid is old, infirm, and susceptible to sabotage; we haven't replaced generating facilities with real power plants, and these clowns believe there's enough electricity in the air to convert to EVs. Worse the losses have to be terrible. There are conversion losses at every step of the way. Generation of electricity is only something like 40-50% efficient, there are transmission losses, and then there are losses in charging batteries, and then again in the conversion of battery energy to mechanical energy to drive the cars.

Let's mandate that EVs are the first appliance folks unplug in a grid crisis.Gotta love #2 - the CA mandated move to EVs.

Some are happy to be taxed as long as it's Biden doing the taxing. Some are just happy their taxes are supposedly going to defeat Russia.The taxes..holy crap..
I was just looking at my cable bill..there are taxes that I dont even know what they are for. Taxes, taxes, taxes. and taxes. It is too much.
Surely everyone else is sick of this insatiable Fed appetite, along with city, county, state..

The loss in transmission lines is quantified by the heating loss value I^2*R pronounced “eye squared R” where I is the line current in the phase and R is the total line resistance. Power is V*I thus you can keep power constant and quarter the heating loss is you double the line voltage. This physical property is why long distance transmission lines operate in hundreds of thousands of volts. However at that crazy potential you actually get leakage thru the isolators too to Mother Earth which increases total transmission loss. I’d really doubt the line loss is in the 50% range but don’t honestly know.I read a story about that many years ago..that transmission lines lose like 50%. I later read that is not as bad, or maybe I misunderstood the article.
Whatever..the biggest self inflicted economic crisis I have ever seen. No plan..just more gov random spending on stupidity.
We have a centrally planned energy agenda and a lack of an actual long term plan, which is not possible with our revolving lawmaker door, or even discussion.
It is a train wreck waiting to happen, and happening.
Our leaders are so stupid and they are wrecking America.
He stated it in the debate with Hillary, Don’t hate that player, hate the game. He didn’t write the tax codes.
