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.




And here's a video where he shows his road test of his car.





So there it is. Does his car really do what he says? It appears so, but this hasn't been independently verified. However, he does do a road test with Teslas, Corvette, and the Viper. All of these cars are considered fast cars, but they aren't any better than what he shows here. For what it is worth, ya'll.



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.




Double x's if you get this one wrong

 




Sara Carter is the new drug czar

One is left with the impression that Trump is very, very serious about the drug problem. Sometimes I kid around, but I don't think Trump is.

 




Oh, brother. Here we go again.

 

Ten to one that this is another nothingburger.

 




New York Post Editorial

 


I suppose it would be okay to editorialize on an editorial.

 

The editorial says to forget the 51st state. That much I agree with. But there's more. It also says there should be a common market. Hmmm. Maybe.


It would appear that the bulk of the population would prefer a Euro-centric type existence, as opposed to an American one. There's a lot of those type already in the USA, so there's that going for it. The common market idea was a European one.


Should we strive for that? Not if we end up with a bloated centralized un-elected state that supercedes the sovereignty of the states of which it is composed. A common market could be replaced with a trading treaty. But we have one of those already. Therefore, there is no need.
