Quote: “NATO has no business in Ukraine. Ukraine, just like Russia, isn’t a NATO member, and my job is to make sure it stays that way.”

He said it was “his job” but never mentioned who he works for

Show him YouTube videos of the fox making the same noise? Hopefully you can convince him

When it comes to small, local elections party affiliation may have no ties to the national parties. Challengers may run as “this” party because the incumbent is “that” party. The mayor of my town was a Democrat but used all of the propaganda buzz works from Fox News’ playback. That being said I’ll bet the mayor in this story is a Trump supporter

So a deep state shadow government?

I have a strategy for when I get tailgated in the slow lane and it’s not brake checking because that’s what they expect. I’ll lock the cruise control to my desired speed. They get right up on my ass and don’t back off, I speed up putting space between me and them. At this point they’ll speed up and I’ll take my foot off the gas and let the car slow down back to cruise control speed. Repeat as necessary. The trick is to never touch the brakes. The driver behind me is alternating between speeding up and hitting the brakes. Eventually they’ll get tired of it and either pass or back off

Dah

What is Jason Woodford hiding?!?!?

Yet the idea of publicly funded contraception and sex education is verbotten

This one is from nearly 30 years ago. In my dream I’m approached by 2 policemen who tell me my father has been killed and they need me to come with them for questioning. I’m 100% sure my father is alive and this is all a misunderstanding. I get in the back of their police car laughing that it’s all a waste of time but whatever, no worries. As the car is rolling along I’m looking out the windows as the landscape gradually changes. First it was all tall pine trees then became rocky, then nothing but rocks. While still moving it all fades away and the car disappears and I’m flying. The only other thing I remember is seeing a bird flying with me. It’s a bird I’ve never seen before even though I’m a bit of a backyard birder. There were teardrop shaped things trailing behind it’s wings as if attached by strings. Truly unusual looking. I wake up in the morning and I’m convinced I was tricked into leaving my body by these men claiming to be policemen. Fast forward to just a few weeks ago, someone posts video of a nightjar. A nocturnal bird that looks just like the one in my dream! https://youtu.be/8XqqlC_MoWk

Apparently you’re the only one. Fox New’s Half Hour News Hour didn’t last long. https://youtu.be/KCl_--E3T2c It was their attempt to copy The Daily Show and even the title was recycled. It didn’t last long

It’s always cringy when “the right” can’t come up with an original idea so they imitate something successful on “the left” and swap out words and think it’ll get anywhere

Here’s the Futureshock documentary I was show in high-school around 1982 for anyone interested https://youtu.be/fkUwXenBokU

IMO the pandemic showed us we need to improve our social safety net (unemployment benefits) and get all workers contributing (taxed wages). We heard all about the “gig economy” and the US government threw money at everyone and everything driving up government defecits and inflation. Caveat: not an economist

If the US didn’t support them they would go to someone else and take their intelligence gathering with them.

I can’t speak for NY but that is the situation in Cleveland. I have a customer downtown on city steam. I watch hot water discharge to a drain at the rate of about 3 gallons a minute and there’s 1440 minutes in a day. When it was built I’m sure they reclaimed most of it (80% return is considered good) but over time the pipe corrodes and you have leaks.

It’s terribly inefficient. The efficiency is lost when the steam that condenses back into hot water is lost and none of it is returned to the boiler to be reheated. Rather than reheating this returning water which normally is at 120-160 degrees Fahrenheit, fresh water is used which in the winter here is around 56 degrees. Aside from this the cold water taken in contains impurities such as dissolved gasses which cause corrosion and dissolved minerals which can cause scaling that acts as an insulator raising the amount of energy needed to heat the water.

If it were that simple everyone would have done it by now. This method of heating your building is very expensive. Long story short, I’m in the HVAC business and two of my customers have made themselves independent. One was a private property management company that gutted an empty building and was successful, the other is a federal building that hired a private company to convert over and got screwed.

Some big cities originally heated their buildings by producing steam in one one centralized building and delivering it to large buildings thru pipes underground. The steam you see is from leaking pipes in this antiquated infrastructure. It’s a very inefficient method if you ask me. Cities should offer these buildings low interest loans so they can update and be independent but they never take my advice
