It seems odd to me that they refer to the number of children treated as “fewer than 10”.

Why can’t they say how many?

Are they going to say that somehow the liberals crowded the place so there was no one there to back her up?

To which I’d say, in that case the conservatives fascists were too unmotivated to counter them.

I don’t think most people get a direct, personal warning of the possibility of being arrested.

We need to stop seeing governors and senators and representatives and saying, “they would be a great president!”

Instead we need to see teachers, co-workers, and neighbors and say, “they would be a great on the city council or county government or as a state representative.”

We need to stop thinking in terms of only one chance of victory every four years and start putting people who care about us in places where they can help.

Of course, that means we have to be prepared to run, and that is hard as hell. So many of us are stretched to the absolute limit just trying to survive. I honestly don’t understand how anyone can do it.

He isn’t going to pay them shit. He wants to make us pay them.

Or American really. The subset of Americans they care about is so close to zero it isn’t worth considering.

…so far.

That changed about a month ago.

I’ll believe it when I see something change.

Her company is also looking at alternative manufacturing sites in Sri Lanka, Vietnam and other lower-cost factories in China, she said.

Note that none of the options she is considering is U.S. manufacturing. Tariffs won’t bring jobs back to the U.S.

I would hope they would have a better understanding of tariffs than Trump.

Better option: short it.

Child abuser, sex trafficker, Trump supporter.

How difficult is it to anonymously report a maga neighbor to ICE for harboring illegal immigrants?

Which is why they’ve put so much time and effort into destroying education in the US

I don’t want to kill Musk, but I’m not going to shed any tears about anything bad that happens to him or any other racist, fascist piece of shit.

And growing calls from citizens to drop dead.

We’d have to manage to find a worse person to elect as president.

This isn’t a two party system. Both parties are owned by the same group of billionaires.

That’s an illusion of choice no different than picking from among the companies owned by Nestle.

Typical Republican. Doesn’t have the courage to face down the people he fucks over.

Don’t tell me he’s not a Republican. It doesn’t matter what he claims to be. His purpose is what he does, and he serves the oligarchs.

The lie is that we have a two-party system. We have the same illusion of choice with elected officials as our choice of groceries. Lots of different options, all owned by the same corporate interests.

You are correct. It relates to the torque (rotational force) that can be produced at different RPM.

Diesel engines have a narrow range of RPM where the torque is highest. At low RPM, the torque of a diesel engine is low. That’s why trucks have to shift into a low gear to start moving and shift multiple times to get up to speed. The driver uses the different gears to keep the engine running within the optimal range of RPM.

Electric motors have high torque at low RPM, so they can start a heavy load moving without having to have any complicated gearbox between the motors and drive wheels.

In a diesel-electric locomotive, the diesel generator can be designed to run at an efficient speed without being affected by the mass of the train. The electricity it generates powers the electric motors which have the necessary torque to handle moving the train.
