For dual use, I’m particularly partial to the solar fence

The comparison commodity was Gas. Does something that can only be consumed once even have a lifetime?

The underground suggestion was only to counter the argument of space usage.

Using the remaining 99% of the cost to bury batteries underground would seem reasonable.

electricity still costs 0.30€/kWh average because of fossil fuel energy lobbies.

This is the price of guaranteed electricity delivered to your doorstep. We can’t get rid of gas fired power stations and kms of electricity grid network yet.

At least those items you only need to buy once.

McDonald’s is normal.

Eating it sitting facing each other on a private jet is not normal.

Diplomacy with fucking Assad certainly never reduced war or death.

Gabbard said they discussed her meeting with Assad and stressed the importance of meeting “with adversaries or potential adversaries, not just our friends, if we are serious about the pursuit of peace.”

Asked if she viewed Assad as an “adversary” of the US, Gabbard demurred and said it was important to look at who posed a threat to the US and how the interests of other nations compare to those of the US.

Pressed on the point, she said, “You can describe it however you want to describe it.”

When asked later in the interview if she thought Assad was a good person, Gabbard said, “No, I don’t,” and asked if Russian President Vladimir Putin was an adversary to the US, she responded, “Yes.”

I bet 80+ years ago you would have been the type to advocate the USA allying with actual Adolf Hitler.

Gabbards stance against Assad is exactly equal to America’s in 1945.

I’ve got an idea to win the case quickly and cleanly: not have anything to do with Russia and having the court send Clinton the bill (pun not intended).

That is a shitty, and ironically slow and expensive, idea.

Diplomacy reduces the war and death.

Supporting Sanders over Clinton could be exactly why she started the “Russian Asset” lazy mudslinging.

The only reason to drop the case already filed would be because

Winning a case, quickly, cleanly and cheaply is impossible.

It certainty doesn’t prove guilt.

She has been non-interventionist and spoke positively of Vladimir Putin and Bashar al-Assad for decades.

Diplomatic can often be confused with positivity

Gabbard supported Bernie Sanders for president even after Sanders asked people to vote for Hillary Clinton.

No, before

When Russia Invaded Ukraine she parroted Kremlin Newspapers on the false claims that the USA operated 36 Biolabs in Ukraine.

Well, The US did fund biolabs in the Ukraine.

She sued Hillary Clinton for calling her a Russian Asset for some good press but then dropped the suit shortly after announcing it to the news. Meaning she thought Hillary could have actually won such a case if it went to court.

Meaning value was gained in publicity and saved in legal fees.

24 year olds fucking 17 year old is legal in florida.

He was much older than 24 at the time.

Citation for “Actual Russian Agent”?

(Hillary Clinton said so doesn’t count. )

The FBI were supposed to check Hunter Biden’s laptop.

Didn’t the deep state already green light an attempted assassination on Trump?

Talking about US funded biolabs, that are already public knowledge, is hardly evidence of being a Russian spy.

Saying solutions in Syria need to involve Assad is common sense, not heretical.

It’s brexit mentality. People voted for change from the status quo.

Most don’t imagine that change will could make their lives worse.

The courts are under that impression. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/oct/31/elon-musk-court-hearing-voter-lottery

So did he

That is crazy. I can’t think of any part of Donald Trump that I would want on my pizza.

What’s north and south?
