...anyone got anything?

Or is this the coveted "First Annual"?

Too bad that old woman whose jaw and orbital bone Neely broke can't sue Jordan Neely's family for her suffering.

Who's fault is that?

Can't find a list of previous winners... anyone got anything?

Bernie is right. Elon is a smart man, but then so was Ted Bundy.

Junior is also right about an unhealthy society, but he's not going to be able to do anything about it.

Be a Proud Trumper, Order Now!!

Fear not, they will. I guess he can't bilk them for campaign/legal cash anymore so he has to go back to selling cheap Chinese junk at highly tariffed prices.

This is up twice?

The American Accountability Foundation (AAF) is an American conservative opposition research group founded in 2020 that has opposed nominees to the Joe Biden administration. The AAF's research was used by Republican opponents of the nomination of Ketanji Brown Jackson for the U.S. Supreme Court in 2022. AAF is a member of the advisory board of Project 2025, a collection of conservative and right-wing policy proposals from the Heritage Foundation to reshape the United States federal government and consolidate executive power should the Republican nominee win the 2024 presidential election.

If you have waited this long I suspect the order has been misplaced or wasn't put in correctly.

Or he's making up more stories like #13.

Or is there more to her appeal?

All I know is she wrecks city traffic more than a POTUS motorcade.

Gad. I was in Vancouver last weekend... dodged a bullet there.

Ford's pardon covered a 5 year period.

AKA Nixon's entire presidency.

So... profit for wealthy shareholders seems to be taking precedent over lowering the price of gas.

Absolutely. No company is going to spend extra money on a venture that would only devalue their product. Cheap gasoline is not a corporate goal of Chevron.

what justifiable reason might he use to avoid being accused of abusing that power.

He doesn't need one. Accuse away.

How can it be explained other than abuse of power?.

The President has the power to pardon. Pretty simple. The scope is quite broad.

How will that be excused?

Why does it need to be excused? He can do it if he wants to.

For some numbers, in 2023 the US produced 12.9 million bpd of crude oil, but consumed 20.25 million, for a deficit of 7.35 million bpd.

I have to ask, what is the difference?

Crude oil is a petroleum product. So is gasoline. You need crude oil to produce gasoline. If you don't have crude oil, you can't make gasoline.

It may be true that you export more gasoline than you import crude oil, but if you didn't have the imported crude you can't produce the gasoline to export.

The US exports very little crude oil... only the stuff the domestic refineries can't handle.

so, if the United States is exporting more oil than it is importing,

It's not. Don't confuse "Petroleum products" with crude oil. Another way, if the US is exporting more oil than it is importing, why is it importing any in the first place? Last year crude imports were around 6.5 million barrels per day,

What do they know about the oil market?

They think the US produces enough crude oil to sustain themselves. They are wrong.

an overt expression of ignorance

That would be in character.

"Drill, Baby, Drill," energy policy that he pledged will cut energy prices in half. ...

Does he not know that the people doing the "drill, baby, drilling" do not want energy prices cut in half?

But the first step in eliminating that waste is not, imo, an expression of unfettered fealty to Pres-elect Trump.

Ramaswamy's federal bureaucrat reduction plan was simpler. "Here's how: if your SSN ends in an odd number, you're fired,"

I think we're going to buy one!

You know, to match the Dubai Trump Towers he's building now.

He is building nothing. He is operating nothing. He is sticking his name on things other people are building and operating. As usual.

I know a woman who was in the Navy for a couple of years.

That sounds really true.
