    Senator John Fetterman @SenFettermanPA · 20h I want to salute Israel and celebrate the elimination of Yahya Sinwar—a necessary move for any future enduring peace. Eliminating the mastermind of the 10/7 massacre is the definition of justice served. My vote and my voice for Israel will not waver. https://twitter.com/SenFettermanPA/status/1846957363984495001

    Planting over 16,000 trees. Increasing the tree canopy is a priority because trees provide shade, lower the ground surface temperature and offset carbon emissions by capturing carbon dioxide. For nearly two decades, Miami-Dade has struggled to reach its goal of 30 percent tree cover. Gilbert explains that rampant development and hurricane damage have made meeting this a Sisyphean task. The fact that the county isn’t backsliding is an achievement, she insists—it’s currently hovering around 20 percent. This year Miami-Dade will invest a record $7 million in tree planting, with an emphasis on low-income neighborhoods, which tend to have the least...
  • California cops who are trialing Teslas ahead of ban on gas vehicles say they are 'nearly unusable'

    Among the California police departments that have tried using Teslas was the Ukiah Police Department, the largest municipal police force in Mendocino County. There, Police Chief Cedrick Crook requested the City Council approve the purchase of two Tesla Model 3s, which is the company's sedan, on August 7, 2024. That purchase totaled nearly $150,000 between the cost of the cars and $35,000 in modifications to make the Teslas patrol-ready, Crook told the San Francisco Gate. He said the vehicles needed the standard emergency lights, sirens, radio, antenna, push bar, partition and gun rack, but the Teslas also needed to be...
  • Crooks are posing yet ANOTHER threat to EV adoption in America: 'This worries me the most' Thieves are targeting valuable copper in charging cables across the country

    UK DAILY MAIL ^ | 12 June 2024 | By Tilly Armstrong
    The reason thieves are targeting EV charging cables is because they contain copper wiring. The price of copper is near a record high on global markets, so criminals stand to collect rising sums of cash from selling the material. But while it costs $1,000 to replace a charging cable, authorities say, thieves only stand to make $20 reselling the metal. Thieves have been caught on camera in Seattle targeting an EV charging station on the edge of a shopping center parking lot. CCTV footage shows them using bolt cutters to snip several charging cables and load them into a truck...
  • ‘Megalomaniac’ Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar pushes Palestinians to use suicide bombs against Israelis again

    NY POST ^ | 10-10 | Ronny Reyes
    Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar is pushing for Palestinian terrorists to revive the horrifying practice of using suicide-bombs against Israelis — as the “megalomaniac” terror leader surrounds himself with hostages for his own protection, according to reports. After Israeli officials shut down speculation that Sinwar might be dead earlier this week, White House Mideast czar Brett McGurk confirmed Wednesday that the Oct. 7 mastermind remains in power surrounded by human-shields. “He remains — we believe — alive and in a tunnel underneath Gaza, holding hostages, and likely with hostages in his vicinity,” McGurk said in a White House call with American...

  • Israel not expected to attack Iran nuclear facilities, to focus on bases, intelligence sites - NYT claims -

    MSN -- Jerusalem Post - NY Times ^ | 10-08 | JERUSALEM POST STAFF
    Israel's response to Iran's missile barrage attack at the beginning of October will not be attacking its nuclear facilities but rather targeting the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps's military bases and intelligence sites, according to a Monday report from the New York Times citing officials. The report said while Israel would prefer to have US backing in its response, Biden and other US officials have said that strikes on nuclear facilities would be ineffective and "plunge the region into a full-scale war," the report said. However, the nuclear facilities as targets may come into consideration should Iran escalate with attacks of...

    I have been watching polymarket for a month. Until 3 days ago. Kams had been leading by one point --- For the 20 previous days. Starting 3 days ago DJT's polymarket score started rising. NOW Trump is leading by about 7 percentage points. The Biden-Kamala FEMA disaster in NC and other states must be a factor. Showing how DEI incompetent and stupid they are. President Trump would have been cracking the whip on FEMA and other Federal agencies. Some of this incompetence is due to these Federal "workers" being working from home scammers. Caution is that with polymarket, you can...

    Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is dodging calls from Vice President Kamala Harris about Hurricane Milton, sources close to the governor told multiple news outlets. “Kamala was trying to reach out, and we didn’t answer,” an anonymous DeSantis aide told NBC News on Monday. A source close to the governor also confirmed the same to ABC News hours later. The anonymous DeSantis aide said the governor declined to take Harris’ calls because they “seemed political.” They were unsure if DeSantis had been in communication with President Joe Biden. Harris offered harsh words for the governor after reporters asked her about the...

    Six Shake Shacks are closing in Democrat-run California. The company explained the locations are “not projected to provide acceptable returns in the foreseeable future.” Five of those six California closings are in Democrat-run Los Angeles. Shake Shack is also closing one location in Ohio and two in Texas. The Post adds that this is “the first time the chain will close restaurants for purposes that were not construction-related,” according to a Shake Shack spokesperson who spoke with Restaurant Business, a trade publication that first reported on the closings. All the closings will be complete by September 25. This is what...
  • Second-fastest growing city in US where it's too hot to even go outside faces water shortages

    UK DAILY MAIL ^ | 25 August 2024 | By Emma Richter For Dailymail.Com
    A Texas city is America's second-fastest growing urban area - despite being too hot to go outside during summer and facing water shortages. During the pandemic, homebuyers flocked to Kyle, Texas where an aquifer, an underground water source, is currently shrinking, leaving more than 67,000 residents struggling for water. Before summer even began, temperatures reached almost 100 degrees in the city - which sits 20 minutes outside of Austin - as nearby creeks and watering holes have dried up due to the city's extensive drought. Hays County, where the popular city is located, will most likely experience extreme droughts at...

    Russian firefighters are battling a three-day inferno in the southwest of the country, after a Ukrainian drone attack on an oil storage depot ignited the facility's diesel reserves. On Saturday Rostov Oblast Governor Vasily Golubev said that Russian air defense forces had repelled an attack by a Ukrainian UAV in the town of Proletarsk, located around 150 miles from the Ukrainian border. A day later, however, Golubev said that fallen debris from the UAV had landed on the industrial warehouses at the Proletarsk state reserve fuel facility, igniting a fire which Russian authorities have since struggled to contain. Golubev also...

    Russian troops have been seen taped to trees and beaten by furious commanders as punishment for being drunk on the frontllines of Vladimir Putin's brutal invasion of Ukraine, new footage has revealed. Footage posted online showed the troops being tied to trees in an unknown forest near the front. A foul-mouthed officer berates the soldiers for getting drunk on duty, a major problem in Putin's ranks. He barked: 'What the f*** were you doing?' He told one: 'I think you're f***ing lost.' The officer then asked another: 'Are you a drunk too?' Then he orders an underling to beat the...
