Service members dying for Epstein is awful.

Today is a perfect day to work on my wife's Equinox.

Why does every aspect of this administration need to be a clown show? It's beyond embarrassment.

🚨🚨 Spot on by @anneapplebaum.bsky.social on allies "abandoning" #Trump: "This isn’t cowardice. It’s a calculation. Most of them have stopped trying to find the hidden logic behind Trump’s actions, and they understand that any contribution they make will count for nothing".

Trump’s top Iran guy who he fired saw all this coming. @montanaskeptic.bsky.social @coverdrive12.bsky.social @negdiscountrt.bsky.social

As expected, total reversal of message again today. He could really use some quiet time in the Rose Garden.

Last week, I contemplated putting my snowblower away for the season. Fortunately it was available for the St. Urho's Day blizzard of 2026. Woke up this morning to find fresh deer tracks in the snow.

"The person in the driver’s seat is only there for legal reasons. He is not doing anything. The car is driving itself." I'll admit that I didn't think we would still be playing this game TEN YEARS later.

Musk: "We simplified this a lot. It's basically just Teslas without tunnels at this point, which is way more profound than it sounds."

Starting to look tempting.

Truly excellent article, free to read. @montanaskeptic.bsky.social

This reminds me of one of my pet peeves. For many years in the U.S., leaded fuel was sold at a lower price than unleaded fuel. It led to rampant misfueling and damaged cat converters. The two fuels should always have been sold at the same price. That's what they did in Australia - problem solved.

The "Forced Labour Tariffs" will begin when the "Emergency Tariffs" expire.

Sounds bigger than the DOJO retirement. Does S&P care, or will they still fast track it?

WOW!! www.cbs58.com/news/state-e... #WIsconsin #wipolitics #wisdems #wisgop

Not much meat in this promotional sandwich. But he did say that nuclear propulsion is being developed so we can go to Mars. So is Musk's Starship is already obsolete?

I heard that Massie refused to wear them. Hope that doesn't count against him.

Canada ADVANCE to the quarterfinals of the WBC for the first time in history after taking down Cuba in their final game! 🇨🇦

Tesla #$TSLA China Sales - Feb Update - CPCA reported 20,393 Export and 38,206 Domestic sales in Feb. - The sales pattern is pretty much unchanged from what we've seen over the past 3 years. - Sales in the Middle East, which were doing well, are likely to tank in March.

In my opinion, defunding highway maintenance is a singularly bad idea.

"You can't have freedom with low gas prices."

🚨 Tesla Domestic China Sales CPCA reports 38,206 Teslas sold in China in Feb. It leaves them 6% behind last year's pace for the first two months. Wholesale and Export numbers yet to come, which will provide a better overall picture.

Isn't there a government agency that oversees wasteful spending?

There seems to be nothing strategic about the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. If it really was strategic, it would not have been drained in 2022 for no particular reason. And it would have been replenished to strategic levels while oil prices were stable. I have to conclude that it's a nothingburger.

Same as watching Curling on American TV.

Elon Musk, arguably the best con man in history, does his “engineering” with smoke and mirrors. And despite Musk's track record, gullible officials still eat it up. Outstanding article by Matt Ribel in The Washingtonian.

Finally, we hear an adult voice.

Johnson needs to get an update from Hegseth in the Department of War. Clearly unlimited.

It's all greenwashing. Just like when Google bought Bloom Energies solid oxide fuel cells years ago. It's all window dressing.

It looks like Tesla is once again using parking garages to stash inventory. There are some 100,000 inventory cars worldwide. 99,998 after today.

Shield of the Americas summed up succinctly.

It's a win in my book. I choose incompetence over evil every time.

Special Envoy = honorary title Shield of the Americas = imaginary department

Americans have been polarized into distrust. No remedy in sight.

The refunds are a tremendous windfall for importers who have paid the tariff and have passed it on to their customers.

TRUMP: Because it happened all very quickly, and we can't think that far ahead.

Fun with Roku - Mrs. Drive and I settle in to watch an episode or two of The Mallorca Files on Britbox. 1) I speak into the Roku controller "Mallorca Files". It comes back with "My Orca" suggestions. 2) I try again, this time rolling the R. Same results. 3) Then I say "Mal Orca". Bingo!

The fighting continues.

Interesing report... #$TSLA #$TSLAQ

Why is Tesla planning expansion on a factory that's operating at 55% capacity?

Not understanding the technical challenges, Tesla investors have relied on Elon's promises for vision-only self driving vehicles. Even while operating a demo fleet in Austin, it's clear that progress has stalled. The departure of Victor Nechita seems to confirm. finance.yahoo.com/news/tesla-r...

It comes with the package, Brady.

Robotaxi works best for #$TSLA as a perpetual future product. It loses value if it becomes a current product. Not unlike Cybertruck. Not unlike Solar Roof. Not unlike Optimus. Not unlike Semi. Not unlike battery swap stations. Not unlike self-delivering cars. Not unlike Cyberquad. Not unlike 4680. /1

NIGHTS OF BLUE SKIES DAY 25 FEBRUARY 2026 THESE HORRENDOUS TIMES ICYMI Outrage last night at SOTU when @repilhan.bsky.social guest AMERICAN DISABLED CITIZEN, Aliyah Rahman was ARRESTED for simply standing up ..No Outburst No Sign She stood silent Remember she was assaulted by ICE Outrage !

Same energy.

And if you can't be exonerated, at least be redacted.

Here's something new - While the pedophile-in-chief was spewing lies tonight, 40 nations signed a $30 trillion trade deal preventing the pedophile-in-chief from causing any more economic harm - with Canada's Mark Carney at the helm.

The factories exist in the same reality as the hospital ships.
