Happy Tuesday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. (Snip) If it's the World vs. Elon Musk, I'm taking Musk every time. Just thought I'd get that out of the way up front. Elon Musk has been racking up quite the list of haters since he bought Twitter, renamed it X, and left all of us old-school tweeters in media typing Twitter/X all the time. For the sake of convenience, I hope there is no more rebranding in the offing. The leftists are in a tizzy because Musk broke their stranglehold on social media. Well, the social media that anyone pays attention to. I think what really set them off

FTA: "The leftists are in a tizzy because Musk broke their stranglehold on social media. Well, the social media that anyone pays attention to. I think what really set them off in the beginning was not only that Musk purchased one of the crown jewels in social media, but that he did it on a whim. It was his casual, You commies are annoying, I think I'll just buy the place, attitude that got the poor dears right in the feelings." Wonderful! I would never buy an e-anything because I live less than 100 yards from the sea, and live in an evacuation zone. Even though the Tesla is (correctly) regarded as the best in the e-category, e-anything is not practical in the diurnal world. When Musk starts producing gasoline powered vehicles, we'll know the e-revolution is done forever. Now, what should be done to the e-pushers like Gore and Kerry?

The brilliance of Musk is that he could convince people that the concept of the EV makes ANY sense given all the problems associated with the batteries, reliability, and lack of grid and charging station support. But it's hard to fault the man's guts. He is wading into a "sewer" where most of us would fear to go.

Reusable rockets! That is all. :-) PS FTA on a more depressing note, "...it'll be a miracle if the United States makes it to the end of next year with this piece of garbage thug in charge of the Executive Branch." I'm hedging my bets....

Biden's Open Borders 2 replies
Posted by Hazymac 12/20/2023 5:25:54 PM Post Reply
The New York Post cover story today is by Alex Oliveira: “Record 12,600 migrants encountered at border in 24 hours — as backlog for immigration hearings breaks 3 million.” The story reports on our self-created border crisis. When I say “self-created,” I mean created by President Joe Biden. Why would a president of the United States do what he has done? Even certain well-known Democratic officeholders are unhappy with the results, though they may point the finger of blame elsewhere. Biden’s undoing of our border is an act of willful destruction. In addition to everything else, it seriously jeopardizes our national security. Everyone knows who is to blame. Ilhan Omar
Are Electric Vehicles the Wave of the Future? 13 replies
Posted by Hazymac 12/20/2023 10:39:46 AM Post Reply
In recent months it has become abundantly clear that electric vehicles are no more than rich men’s toys. Sometimes I think I must be having a dream, but I do not seem to be able to awaken from this nightmare. These vehicles are so expensive that only the very rich can afford them. In fact, these are often secondary vehicles. As a vehicle to drive from home to office and back home again, they are reasonably practical. However, nothing beats a vehicle with an internal combustion engine. You do not have to plug it in; just get in and drive it. Five minutes is enough time

As we approach the last year of Joe Biden’s term, it’s an opportune moment to reflect back on January of 2021. Our new President had been inaugurated (though we still don’t know that he was elected). Democrats believed the evil Trump had been vanquished from the body politic forever. We were assured that blue-collar Joe from Scranton was going to return normalcy to Washington -- as if that were a good thing. Biden was riding high in the polls. His “wingmen” were in control of the executive branch. His allies were in power in Congress and his media lapdogs would guarantee that all news was good news.

A former NFL running back who won a Super Bowl with the New York Giants was arrested in connection with robberies at businesses in the Los Angeles area, according to prosecutors and police. Derrick Ward was arrested Monday night, according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office. A case had not been presented to prosecutors for consideration of criminal charges, the office said early Tuesday. Ward was arrested in connection with robberies at Los Angeles businesses, the Los Angeles Police Department said. Details about the robberies were not immediately available. Ward, who attended Valley View High School in Moreno Valley, was a seventh-round draft pick by the New York Jets

Even for most people who have been writing about the lunatic ravings of the Democrats and their flying monkeys in the mainstream media, the 2024 United States presidential election is going to bring us weirdness and hysteria like we've never seen. I've been talking and writing about that since Donald Trump began racing away in the primary polling, and the lefties have been working overtime to prove that I still have some powers of political prognostication. Joe Biden was already checking out mentally when he announced that he was running for president back in 2019. His infamous "basement campaign" in 2020 had far more to do with

If you want to know what's going on with Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg's massive Koolau Ranch compound on the Hawaiian island of Kauai, there's no use asking anyone involved in its construction — they're all bound by strict nondisclosure agreements. According to an anonymous former contract employee who was willing to risk life and limb — not really (?!?) — to talk to Wired, "It’s fight club. We don’t talk about fight club." More ominously, he added, “Anything posted from here, they get wind of it right away.” And you thought Zuckerberg just had algos scanning your Instagram feed for wrongthink. Sources differ on the size and expense of Zuckerberg's compound.

As RedState reported earlier, there is Democrat panic on Capitol Hill as Joe Biden's polling numbers continue to sink so badly that some Democrats fear they don't stand a chance in 2024 with him on the ticket. At the top of the list of voter concerns are the economy, jobs, inflation, and the cost of living, and three years into the Biden-Harris administration has left them feeling worse off, not better off than they were at the start of it. Naturally, all of this news has miffed some of Biden's more strident apologists in the mainstream press, including CNN's Jim Acosta, who during an "Inside Politics" interview surprisingly

Admiral Horatio Nelson is one of the greatest heroes of British history. With the possible exception of Wellington, no one contributed more to winning the Napoleonic Wars. Nelson’s death at Trafalgar, his greatest victory, holds a place in British history analogous to that of Lincoln at the end of the Civil War. But in recent years, Nelson has come under attack, and activists have urged that statues of him be destroyed–including the iconic one at the top of Nelson’s Column at Trafalgar Square. Why? The usual reason: he is alleged to have been pro-slavery. In my opinion, this would be irrelevant even if true. Slavery was ubiquitous on every continent except Antarctica

Fortunately for us, the world is binary. Truth value is binary. Of the four kinds of sentences in the English language—declarative, exclamatory, imperative, and interrogatory—only one, the declarative, has a truth value, and that truth value is always either true or false. Existence itself is binary. Every entity that can be conceived either exists or not. Computer science, too, is binary. Computer science depends upon the fact that electrical circuits are either closed or open. And, of course, human sexuality is binary. Each human being is either male or female. Moreover, every cell in the human body is either male or female.

A recent New York Times article goes into detail about the financial machinations of Hamas over the last decade, and posits that the Israeli government and Benjamin Netanyahu not only knew about the hundreds of millions of dollars that were being funneled into Hamas, but allowed it to happen in the hope that financial success in Gaza would keep peace. Written by Jo Becker, the article uses many sources, including ex-Mossad personnel. Becker is an investigative reporter for the Times, having won Pulitzer Prizes for exposing Dick Cheney’s hidden power in 2008, for a series of articles in 2017 about Vladimir Putin’s efforts to undermine the 2016 election,

Another day ending in “y,” another pro-Hamas anti-Israel protest. This one broke out Monday evening in New York City’s Penn Station, where protesters marched into the Daniel Moynihan Train Hall in Manhattan to harass travelers and intimidate anyone who disagreed with their viewpoint. It started around 5 p.m., according to a local news station: The group came from the Port Authority Bus Terminal, and earlier marched down 42nd Street from Grand Central Terminal where the MTA earlier warned commuters about travel restrictions. Police could be seen barricading and blocking entrances to Penn Station around 5 p.m., including a NJ TRANSIT entrance on 7th Avenue, but

Three main points before getting to the substance.(snip)As long as President Trump appeals the decision to the Supreme Court, the appeals court stays their own ruling – essentially indefinitely. The Colorado primary ballots printed, and the primary election will be over, before the Supreme Court puts this on their docket. In addition to the virtual guarantee the high court will overrule this political nonsense, SCOTUS can make the entire issue moot before them by following their own normal schedule for submissions, arguments, deliberation and opinions delivered by the court.

In a stunning and unprecedented decision, the Colorado Supreme Court removed former President Donald Trump from the state’s 2024 ballot, ruling that he isn’t an eligible presidential candidate because of the 14th Amendment’s “insurrectionist ban.” The ruling was 4-3. The ruling will be placed on hold pending appeal until January 4, pending a certain appeal to the US Supreme Court, which could settle the matter for the nation

Dozens of Jeffrey Epstein's high profile associates are in for a New Year's surprise as they will be named in court documents set to be released in the first days of 2024. The pedophile's powerful friends are set to be exposed as part of a vast unsealing that a judge ordered on Monday will take place in 14 days. That will take the release day to January 1 – but as that is a holiday it is likely the files will be made public the following day. Some 177 people will be identified across hundreds of files which will shed new light on the late financier's sex trafficking operation and

We reported earlier about the new Monmouth national poll showing President Joe Biden has dropped to his lowest approval rating ever, earning a meager 34 percent. But voters are even more unhappy with another politician, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), who received an exceptionally low six percent approval rating. Meanwhile, 60 percent of respondents disapproved of the job he's been doing. (X) Monmouth wrote about the McConnell numbers, noting that he’s the only person in the poll who received a net negative score:

The all-Democrat appointed Colorado Supreme Court last night barred Donald Trump from the state's 2024 Republican ballot over his role in the January 6 riot - with legal experts warning they have imperiled American democracy. The 4-3 decision marks the first time in history that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment - which disqualifies insurrectionists from office - has been used to eliminate a presidential candidate. Justices Richard L. Gabriel, Melissa Hart, Monica Márquez and William W. Hood III said that they had 'little difficulty' in determining that the events of January 6 were an insurrection and that Trump did 'engage' in that alleged rebellion.

You know, as Republicans, we want that border secure. You know, we want the right fiscal policies in place. We wanted to drain the swamp. He didn’t do any of it. And there’s no, you don’t even have to run ads on that. He just didn’t get it done. ” He continued, “You know, it’s funny when you he was here over the weekend, and he spent all this

A comic in a club started to make a joke about President Joe Biden and was promptly heckled by a woman shouting, “Stop it. I like Joe.” I watched the YouTube video of it and once again marveled at the very idea that anyone in 2023 could be so ignorant of Biden’s character. At present, polls show that his approval ratings are the lowest ever for an incumbent president but the very fact that 30% of those polled still believe he’s doing a good job means that idiocracy is now the normal state in America. All right, perhaps, I’m wrong and the average I.Q. in America hasn’t decreased to -50.

Everything about this movie is so politically incorrect, from the old man to Mrs. Parker, to just about everything else.

The Real Claudine Gay Scandal 21 replies

Dr. Claudine, current President of Harvard University, is one lucky woman or, as she might describe herself a “a lucky woman of color.” She first survived her dreadful testimony before the House Committee on Education and the Workforce, where she refused to unambiguously denounce calls from Harvard students and faculty to kill all Israeli Jews. It was an embarrassing performance filled with weasel words and amorphous defenses such as “it all depends on context” as if genocide might be legitimate in some circumstances. Gay’s second lucky break was to survive clear-cut evidence that she was a career plagiarist, and this scholarly dishonesty far exceeded inadvertent sloppiness.
