US Elections (& Politics) :)

Can't argue with science - 1st time ever Scientific American backs a US Presidential Candidate - Biden.
Siting a few of Trumps BS quotes: 'climate change is not real', 'it will get cooler soon', 'there will be enough tests for everyone', 'this is like the flu', cut billions from healthcare, well documented rejection of science, etc.
Build a wall, that will protect us :thumbdown:

The Dems and Fauci started this one, along with, "Trump is just fear mongering", "come to Chinatown and celebrate" and "it won't disrupt your normal life."

It is hilarious when the professional liars start calling out others as if they resent being mislead by politcal word twisting.

Are they actually backing Biden or is it a Harris Administration Together With Joe Biden?
What about all those BLM and similar 'peaceful protests' where no one wore masks or practiced social distancing?
Why did Obama buy a $12 million dollar waterfront property if the water level is rising?
And speaking of former Vice Presidents, wasn't it Al Gore that predicted in 2009 that the Polar Ice Cap would be gone in 5 to 7 years?

Some of the worst fires in California where from downed power lines
"Pacific Gas & Electric Co. power lines have caused more than 1,500 California wildfires in the past six years, including the deadliest blaze in the state's history"

Is it really rocket science to keep foliage away from high energy power lines?

But yet you a have a number of articles like this one:

i dont live in Cali, but here in Virginia Dominion energy will regularly inspect trees near power lines and trim them back. i dont know if its a company policy or a state requirement, but its a regular occurrence as falling limbs are a major contributor to power outages, especially during a hurricane.

Science is fact - not political, not racist. Read the article.

That's not an article, that's an opinion, which is not science. Do a google search of the politicization of science and you should be done reading by the end of the year. Just because you hate Trump doesn't mean all the "opinion science" you find online is fact. What about the scientists that refute the liberal talking points related to science? Is it invalid? Why? Because it doesn't support your beliefs or because it corroborates Trump? You owe yourself some intellectual integrity.

Duke does the same here.
Now dont get me started on their obscene profits and lack of upgrades to their infrastructure ;) They basically wait for hurricanes, upgrade where they have to replace plant, then turn around and charge us for it. Convenient.

President Trump is absolutely correct. Everything goes in cycles including the Sun. The Earth warms and cools. Right now we are coming out of an Ice Age that ended around 12,000 year ago. By the way DsineR, what is the "correct" temperature for the Earth?

As to the wall, are you for an open border?

Some good news out of North Carolina.

NC Appeals Court Upholds Voter ID, Tax Cap Amendments

Raleigh, N.C. — The state Court of Appeals has overturned a trial-court ruling voiding amendments to North Carolina's constitution that voters approved two years ago, calling for people to present photo identification at the polls and lowering the cap on the state income tax rate.

the NAACP challenged only the voter ID and the 7 percent income tax cap. The group argued that the proposals never should have gone to a referendum because dozens of the lawmakers who put the amendments on the ballot were elected in illegally gerrymandered districts.


LMAO about the NAACP's argument.
Did you ever see Elijah Cummings' Maryland district? Oh wait, he was a Democrat, so rules don't apply

Scientific American's new Editor-in-Chief, Laura Helmuth, makes it political:

"Even though Scientific American had never endorsed a presidential candidate in the magazine’s 175-year history, its top editor said Tuesday there was little internal debate over a decision to back Democrat Joe Biden."


Psychologist and writer Geoffrey Miller said that the magazine was betraying 175 years of principled bipartisanship “for the sake of some cheap, short-sighted, opportunistic virtue signaling.”

“I’m old enough to remember when your magazine had some integrity,” he tweeted.


So much for "science" not being political.

im not a fan of duke energy either. partly from a professional standpoint as they are a large client of ours and have no qualms demanding stuff in addition to what is in the contract while refusing to pay for the extras knowing my company will just bend over and kiss their ass.

on a personal level their response to dumping coal ash in a river was pathetic. instead of manning up and doing what was right they tried to get the tax payers to foot the bill for their fuck up.


part of being capatalist is letting bad companies die instead of protecting them

two things
first i really shouldnt of clicked that link without the benefit of an adblocker

2nd the dems had already passed pretty generous bills for relief already in the house. its now just a matter of hammering out a compromise that mitch and trump will agree to.

also bonus third point. Is it common for that site to leave out links for sources? if there is legislation there will always be a link to it on the house or the senates website.
