These guys are saying something that completely contradicts what the media is saying
The country's future awaits the verdict
It looks like a loss in Wisconsin, but the real loss was a few years ago when a GOP judge ran against MAGA. That might as well have been kiss of death. It confirms once again the whole point of the "moderate" GOP is to inflict defeat upon the majority of the party, which is MAGA. It's been either MAGA or conservative all along, and the "moderates" hold the reins as long as the public allows it. It's happening in Texas, too. It wasn't a totally bad night, as the majority in Wisconsin are still for sane policies, but this may have already been tilted in the liberal's favor anyhow. A win would have been a flip.
You might as well call it another steal, because that is what you will likely get in Wisconsin in the future. Unless something changes, of course.

There's a big election, or one that they say is big. It's in Wisconsin. I don't follow their politics very much. Seems like I don't follow my state of Texas' politics all that much. All the focus is on Washington DC. What's true in my case may translate into the general case.

May you live in interesting times
The "interesting" part is not what it may appear to be. Anyway, I've been having some interesting times lately.
Solve for X: Rob McGinnis on global water scarcity ( reposted from 2012)
This was a long time ago, so it may take a bit of digging to find out more. Basically, he sold his tech to a Chinese group! The Chinese couldn't make anything out of it, so they went belly up. Not sure where the story went from there, but still looking...
Oasys looks to sell forward osmosis IP as cash flow dries up --- I was wondering what happened to this tech that I first heard of way back in 2012. I think I will look into the story a bit. Rob McGinnis is the name.

Leo AI doesn't seem to know much about it. A few clicks through what's out there seems to show that this is a very complex topic with no one-size-fits-all type of solution. Still looking.
UK's Modern Water is another name mentioned. However, there's nothing all that new being mentioned on this website.
11:00 AM:
Here's one of the more recent videos of Rob McGinnis. Why would I be interested in this greenie weenie stuff? If it makes sense economically, then there's no need for draconian regulations to put it into large scale practice. But get this: It might make sense on Mars. Guess who's going to Mars?

The original post seems to have gone missing, but there's this copy. So I am wondering: Whatever happened with this tech? It would sure come in handy, you know?
Global Challenges in Energy and Water Supply: The Promise of Engineered Osmosis | Environmental Science & Technology https://t.co/n6ECRWDBdp --- I wonder what happened to this. This isn't new, it has been around for more than a decade.

If you release the ammonia in small amounts, then you will limit the damage it could do, you see? Therefore, you could store the smelling salts indefinitely, and then when you want the ammonia, it can be recovered easily.
12/29/16: note:
Smelling salts can desalinate water and be a source of ammonia for a fuel cell, that produces even more water and electricity.
Now all you need is to separate the ammonia from the carbon dioxide. There's a way...

Big Bird: A Metaphor for Obama
What about this old post? It's over a dozen years old, and Obama is no longer in the White House. In fact, when I made this post back then, he was still in his first term. Good 'ol Romney was attempting to oppose him, but Romney did not succeed. Why not success? He was trying too hard to be like the guy he was running against, that he couldn't bring himself to honestly oppose him.
That's why the so-called "right" lost all the time. The same formula is taking place in Canada at the moment. The guy running against the Liberal party guy, isn't really opposing him. So the Liberals are likely to win in Canada because the so-called right winger refuses to be any different than the leftard that he is running against. Up until recently, the Liberals were very unpopular. What made them popular this time? By picking a fight with the Orange Man Bad. The Canadians are hopeless unless they find their way out of their bamboozlement. It is not any accident that people get bamboozled. It's the plan. Chew on that on, if you dare.

Bruce Johnson, American Thinker
He makes a case that Obama is Big Bird. Everybody seems to be Big Bird. I was thinking that John McCain was Big Bird. Especially with his attempts to become a member in good standing with the press is reminiscent of the video showed earlier on this blog. It was Big Bird who made a caricature of himself in order to try to become a member of the Good Birds Club. Like Big Bird in that video, McCain really does like to get the approval of the left, so much so that he earns the suspicion of conservatives because he plays up to the critics of conservatism. So, if McCain is really conservative, why doesn't he just be happy with the way he is?
It all depends on how you take Big Bird, I guess. He seemed to me to be a Big Wuss in that video. All too often, Republicans like John McCain act like Big Bird did in that video.
Ground News says that this is a "red" blindspot
This is not written to dispute it, although I've written many times that the Marxist model is not one you should use if you are a sincere conservative. However, not everyone on the "right" is blind to the significance of this election. You may notice that the political left is definitely not blind to it.

Senator Kennedy quizzes liberal kook
More proof that those on the left are either stupid or evil. I'd say in the case of this woman (if that is what she identifies as), that she claims the First Amendment doesn't really mean what it says. Oh, no. It means something else. Evidently, this is also the case with the Second Amendment. However, the Constitution, according to her, does says things that clearly aren't there. Fancy that.

Diesel powered car that gets over 100 mpg, and accelerates 0-60 in less than 5 secs.
Never heard of Casey Putsch. Tucker Carlson interviews him about his car, so I looked a bit further.
Casey Putsch designed a diesel car that gets 104 miles per gallon – New York to LA on one tank – and goes zero to sixty in five seconds. But no car company wants to make it. Why is that?

Is Elon Musk's Business Empire Collapsing?
There may well be cracks developing. However, a lot of this latest bad PR is a result of people ( and nations ) who have an axe to grind. However, that doesn't explain it all. There are some problems developing.
SpaceX seemed to be the most promising of Musk's ventures. I don't care that much about Tesla, but even that could be turned around. Mainly for this commentary, SpaceX practically owns the launch business. Nobody can touch their resuable first stages, and the fully reusable Starship could revolutionize the space industry. At the moment, things might be a bit dicey, and the warning lights are flashing on the dashboard. If Musk isn't careful, he could blow it. Just my opinion. The video below seems to leave you with a "yes" to the question being posed. I'm not so sure he is in trouble, but he could get there.
