Republicans have a 2024 platform. You can Google it.

Idiocracy

While I know things are generally more expensive in Switzerland, $685,000 is crazy expensive for just 18 kW (48 panels).

Ukraine has been going after these factories with drones and sabotage. Factory manager can’t protect workers from that.

Most voters don’t have an attorney checking their mail-in ballot.

Nevada uses two forms for gathering signatures, one for candidates and another for ballot initiatives. The Secretary of State gave the Green Party the wrong form. The forms are basically identical.

It is not the first time Democrats has used dubious methods to deprive Green Party ballot access.

It would also help to provide some type of calculation or explanation for how they even came up with that number. Reading the report, the 5% looks made-up.

“You go in, find Putin, bring him out in 24 hours, and you’re a free man.”

It is actually much worse than that. The problem they are having is that street-running LRT trains get stuck in traffic, causing bunching and other scheduling issues. The obvious solution is to get cars completely out of the way of the trains. But despite an official “transit first” policy, the SFMTA won’t do that. So instead they will spend >$100 million on a new signal system, which will map train locations in real-time simply to tell dispatchers what they already know – that the trains are stuck in traffic.

In California, local government does not get any revenue from speeding tickets. It is one reason there is so little enforcement of traffic laws.
