Ford CEO Admits to Driving Chinese EV as Company Benefits from Taxpayer Dollars

The CEO of Ford drives a Chinese electric vehicle and does not plan on exchanging it for an American-made car anytime soon.

Ford CEO Jim Farley spoke about the company’s EV competition last week and admitted to enjoying a Chinese-made electric vehicle — so much so that he had one flown from Shanghai to

Chicago.

Missouri Democrat’s Gun Stunt That Led to a Reporter’s Injury Just Got Even Worse

Missouri Democratic Senate candidate Lucas Kunce has already come in for a heaping helping of well-deserved mockery after an event at a backyard “range” led to a reporter being hit with shrapnel. But Kunce’s decision to fire AR-15s at steel targets about ten yards away, his co-hort Adam Kinzinger’s decision to use an optic but no eye protection, the lack of a visible backstop behind the targets, and the presence of containers of Tannerite on the shooting bench the Democrats were using aren’t the only troubling details about the photo op.

Impasse between PM Trudeau and dissidents frustrates Liberal grassroots, and a ‘distraction’ to governing, say insiders

Plagued with caucus dissent, a gridlocked minority Parliament, bleak public opinion polls, and a mounting slate of domestic and foreign policy problems, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau faces an immense challenge to carry on effectively in his job.

“More and more Liberals are recognizing Trudeau can’t recover, and they would like a chance of winning the next election,” said pollster Greg Lyle, president of Innovative Research, in an interview with The Hill Times.

Lyle said the prime minister’s circumstances are “only going to get worse.”

The Bloc Québécois is getting into ‘bring down the government’ mode as its deadline looms

OTTAWA — Bloc Québécois Leader Yves-François Blanchet is expected to announce Tuesday morning on Parliament Hill that his party will now be in “bring down the government” mode, a source told the National Post.

Blanchet has been very clear about his demands over the past month. If the Liberals wanted his party’s support until January, they had to “fully” pass in an “irrevocable and non-negotiable” manner a private member’s bill to increase Old Age Security (OAS) benefits for younger seniors (ages 65 to 74) by 10 per cent and a bill to protect supply management from international trade negotiations.

Amidst broken stations, EV drivers ask, ‘Why is it so hard to maintain an electrical plug?’

On paper, Canada officially boasts more than 32,000 public charging ports for electric vehicles, but on the web, EV drivers say the true number is far smaller because so many stations are out of service.

“This has to be the worst station around. It’s constantly broken,” the driver of a 2023 Chevrolet Bolt EUV who goes by “Adam” said on Oct. 24 on a website called Plug Share about the Trenton, Ont., ONroute charging station just off Highway 401.

Democrats Are Melting Down on Purpose

The fever pitch of hysteria emanating from Democrats right now has some Republicans thinking that Democrats know they are losing and are desperate. Now, there’s something to that: The trends have been moving against Democrats lately, and there’s an edge of panic creeping into the sound of their leaders and spokespeople. But at least if you look at the public polling, Democrats are still (barely) ahead in the key battleground Senate races, and Donald Trump’s leads in the battleground states are mostly within the margin of error. If the polls are just a few points off-center — well within historic norms — it’s easy enough to see Kamala Harris winning, Democrats retaking the House, and Republicans winning just a one-seat margin in the Senate.

Will The Corrupt News Media Accept Election Results If Trump Wins, Or Will They Start A War?

It was such a fun time last week watching the perpetual drama queens that make up our national news media boil with rage over two newspapers declining to issue meaningless campaign endorsements. But it also revealed something unsettling about the unhealthy degree of emotional investment they have in this race.

Will the media accept the outcome of the election if Donald Trump wins? It’s far from a foregone conclusion that they will. There’s a strong argument they didn’t the last time Trump won. Why should anyone expect them to accept it this time around?
