Maybe all the real influencers should unionize and go on strike. It is possible that people will miss the dysfunctional aspects of authentic human influencing. Hopefully, the influencers have all saved money and spent responsibly. Otherwise, they will be influencing my cheesy fry skillet at the Waffle House.

[MAIL] Andrew Tate's brother Tristan has claimed that 'the dream of the West is dying' - insisting that the future lies in the Middle East because the United States has become too crime-ridden and woke.
The 35-year-old former kickboxer and influencer was arrested by Romanian police alongside his brother on charges of people trafficking, rape and running an organized crime network.
The younger Tate, in an interview with Tucker Carlson which aired on Sunday, insisted the prosecutors had no evidence to charge him and said he expected to be cleared.
From the house in Romania where he and his brother, 36, remained under house arrest - which was lifted on Friday, but they must not leave the country - Tate told Carlson that he was looking forward to returning to the Middle East on business.
'What does New York have that Dubai doesn't?' said Tate, who has British and U.S. citizenship, and describes himself as an international businessman.
You don't like the West? No hope you say? No problem, go back to 'kicking' camel turds in the ME and stay there.

I love this term "influencer". I haven't even heard of 90% of these assholes, left or right, but ostensibly mainly on the left. I don't know whom they are influencing, but it certainly isn't yours truly.

Ironically, everything the Tate brothers have except for their unfortunate faith is wealth acquired in a Western society that has lost track of its values.

Actually Guys, you should give the Tate brothers a chance. They actually are staunch advocates of traditional roles and values. Andrew Tate converting to Islam wasn't the coolest development, but he and his brother seem to believe in what was once "classic liberalism", not the bullshit that masquerades as "liberal" these days. Watch some of their "shorts" (videos under a minute) on Youtube.
[Federalist] The government-funded pundits at National Propaganda Radio (NPR) seem to have a toxic fixation with race.
On Tuesday, the outlet blamed the success of American country music on racial prejudice. In a podcast episode titled "How racism became a marketing tool for country music," NPR brought on a historian to outline the myriad ways country music is a vehicle for white supremacy. The host, Britany Luse, introduces the episode by previewing questions to Amanda Martinez, a country music historian at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill. Luse wants to know "how country music became this symbol of racism" and why country music stars remain popular despite artists who currently lead the charts "peddling racist rhetoric today."
"Is racism really what it takes make country music number one?" Luse asks. "I wanted to know how country music became this symbol of racism."
The episode went to air over recent allegations of racism against country music stars currently at the top of the charts. Jason Aldean’s recent number-one hit, "Try That In A Small Town," drew controversy over the suggestion that inner-city riots such as the record-devastating outbursts that erupted in 2020 wouldn’t be tolerated outside major metropolitan areas.
Aldean didn’t try to hide the message, as if he even needed to.
"That sh-t may fly in the city. Good luck trying that in a small town."
"Unfortunately, I think that these three very successful songs at the top of the charts only encourages the country music business to continue what it’s always done," Martinez said, "which is making a product for a white conservative base."

Shouldn't National Public Radio (NPR) be required to change its name to Liberal Radio (LR).
Also, why is Congress funding any Media outlets?
Funding always comes with an "Implied" control and Congress, or ANY POLITICAL PARTY having control is a Violation of the 1st Amendment, isn't it?
US TAXPAYER FUNDING exceeds $300M
BTW: try finding a 2022 or 2023 List of Donors and Sponsors

It is consistent with Alinsky to imply that NPR is trying to start a race war, but it is factually inaccurate. NPR is far too insignificant and ineffective to have a real impact on our national discussion. NPR is even less likely to be an effective vehicle to touch off a race war. A tuba makes a lousy dog whistle. Neither violent blacks nor violent whites listen to any NPR.
The real goal of the NPR slander on country music is just to be the first smear that can be further monetized and merchandised towards the negation of the political voice of any white conservative with a twang in their accent. Their effort won’t work. Working class conservatives are wise to the cancel process and NPR is too much of a pipsqueak to work this gambit to begin with. They are a shrubbery falling in an empty woods. No sound is heard, but there is an opportunity to replant something more tasteful.

NPR preaches to the choir. Their listeners already think anyone outside the blue areas needs rounded up in camps.

Watching Mike Pence continue to campaign is as likely to be successful as current comedy tours by Cosby or Michael Richards. There is no chance of an enthusiastic reception. Donors would be better served to cash future Pence donations into singles and head to a strip bar. They will get rolled in either case, but the strip club is less embarrassing.

I think we are seeing Rinos who have learned to grift the left money-machine. Either that or they are truly delusional.
[Zero] During two recent Fox News interviews, Harvard Law professor (and former Jeffrey Epstein pal, and Trump impeachment attorney) Alan Dershowitz said that the prosecution of former President Donald Trump by the sitting president's DOJ for contesting the 2020 election "looks like banana republic land."
He is often right, but always seems to vote for the Democrat in the end anyway.
Trump pleaded not guilty on Thursday to a four-count indictment over his efforts to contest the results of the 2020 US election. This comes on the heels of a 37-count indictment in June regarding Trump's handling of classified documents.
"President Biden urged his attorney general to indict the man who he knew was going to be the leading opponent if against him," Dershowitz told "Kudlow" guest host, David Asman. "That begins to look like banana republic land. That’s what happens when people in power are afraid of the democratic process. What they do is they seek the indictment and prosecution of the people who are running against them."
"I have a constitutional right to vote against Donald Trump for the third time," said Dershowitz. "I voted against him twice, I intend to vote against him again, but I want to have that right to vote against him and not have that right taken away from me by prosecutors and by the president, who wants to see him imprisoned. That’s just not the American way."
Should he not be voting against the candidate and the party that he condemns for creating the banana republic, to punish them for being evil?
Dershowitz also slammed the Biden administration over venue, arguing that the District of Columbia was a setup.

#1 back then the country was not as divided as it is today. To do that today would be our Archduke Ferdinand moment with 300 million arms out there.
[AmericanThinker] This past Friday, the enterprise released a research report titled, “Deep Dive: Lithium Ion Batteries and Heat” which included a hilariously absurd graphic (although undoubtedly it wasn’t meant to be taken as such) that showed the “optimal temperature” range to avoid issues, and that scope was limited to between 59 and 86 degrees Fahrenheit. Outside of that limited field, and there’s either “slow reactions” or “accelerated side reactions” like those listed at the outset of this blog; from the report itself:
Given the risks of excess heat in a battery, thermal management systems are essential to maintain safe operating temperatures. If the battery overheats, it can lead to safety hazards, reduced battery performance, and accelerated degradation of the battery components.

^ And while I made that comment in a trenchant frame of mind, do you know that from Consumer Reports to the lefty-lefty MythBusters, tests have shown that running the AC in your gas or diesel powered car does not affect mileage?

Also when it gets near zero, the EV range goes from 200 to 20 miles. Good luck with that.
