Caveats..

 

A typical EV owner saves $6,000 to $10,000 over the life of most such vehicles compared with a gasoline-only model, according to a Consumer Reports study from 2020. 
Since that study was published, many EVs have gotten cheaper and conventional vehicles more expensive.
When comparing similar cars on total cost during ownership, "battery electric vehicles tend to come out ahead of [internal combustion engine] vehicles, on average." 
However, there are many caveats that could change that outcome for an individual buyer.
These include regional electricity and gasoline prices; the availability of home vs. public charging, the latter of which is typically more expensive; and the range of the electric vehicle.   Just a "Cost related" thought.

Debt..

 

Classify..

 

Many are questioning why the Pentagon files leaked documents happened. The White House is trying to put a spin on the issue.

The more important question here is why these files are kept a secret.

As a result of these files released ,not that anything was new in it, but it shows that when these files are kept away from the public, the politicians and the people in charge put a different spin other than the truth regarding these matters.

The Media talked about the Chinese balloons spying on USA but the secret document shows we are spying on our allies and enemies alike.

In otherwards, the public officials would be more transparent as President Biden keep his word of transparency if these documents are not classified.

Just a thought.

Immoral....

 

The short-term effect of raising the debt ceiling to accommodate more federal spending and borrowing would be more inflation, a hidden tax which has been robbing Americans of thousands of dollars annually for the last two years. 

To continue on that path is not only fiscally irresponsible, but fundamentally immoral.

Promises..

 

Run..

 

NPR..

 

Judge Eric Davis uttered few words.    "The parties have resolved the case."  in Dominion Voting Systems’ $1.6-billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News: 

Minutes later, one of Dominion’s lead attorneys, Justin Nelson, announced that the company had agreed to settle the case for $787.5 million. “Lies have consequences,” Nelson said. “The truth does not know red or blue.” 

Twitter labels NPR's account as 'state-affiliated media,'  NPR said they operate independently of the U.S. government. NPR has asked Twitter to remove the label.  But Twitter CEO Elon Musk says it "seems accurate."

It seems that the liberal Media outlets are singing the praises of the Government even if they claim independence particulary when it comes to war, prewar, etc.

The Good book tells you "the Truth shall set you free", yet the Media may wants to dance around with a mix of true and fake news.  

 “Misinformation will not go away. It may only get worse."

Just a thought.

Left Out..

 

Pardon..

 

Pentagon..

 

*The US RQ-170 Sentinel stealth drone may have made at least nine flights over the Crimean peninsula and other areas of the Black Sea. 

The use of the RQ-170 must be approved personally by US Secretary of Defence Lloyd Austin. 

*The U.S. Navy said on Saturday a nuclear-powered guided-missile submarine was operating in the Middle East in support of the Bahrain-based U.S. Fifth Fleet

*The United States Navy said on Sunday, April 16, its guided-missile destroyer the USS Milius had sailed through the Taiwan Strait in a "freedom of navigation" operation carried out days after China staged massive war games around the island.

Who is driving the country?, The Senate, the Congress, the White House, the Pentagon, or...
