Kamala Harris Takes Center Stage as Advocate for Abortion Rights Ahead of 2024 Elections
Most Democrats (and Republicans) are centrist. While both parties have moved left, the Democrat party leadership has moved much further left.

"Decent" also depends on how long you are here. Before I moved to Thailand, I could count on my hands the number of times I had eaten at McDonald's, and on one hand Sizzler. After a few years Mickie's is not that bad and Sizzler (as long as you don't order beef) is a downright treat. Forgot Pizza Hut and Domino's...

ICE vs EV, the debate thread
The growth does not seem to be exponential the way that I understand exponential. "In 2023, the EV share of the total U.S. vehicle market was 7.6%, according to Kelley Blue Book estimates. That is up from 5.9% in 2022. EV sales in the fourth quarter set a record for both volume and share: 317,168 and 8.1%, respectively. And while records were set, the oft-reported slowdown is real." A Record 1.2 Million EVs Were Sold in the U.S. in 2023, According to Estimates from Kelley Blue Book - Cox Automotive Inc. (coxautoinc.com) "LONDON, Jan 11 (Reuters) - Global sales of fully electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) rose 31% in 2023, down from 60% growth in 2022, according to market research firm Rho Motion." global ev sales growth 2023 - Google Search

ICE vs EV, the debate thread
So, all non-Chinese automobile manufacturers, EV and ICEVS are facing an existential threat, correct? What was the point of singling out Toyota? Again, what truth about EVs are they trying to obfuscate?

I usually buy my sheets in the US and bring or ship them to Thailand.

In the case of Kamala Harris, it was to make the left look inclusive by her being a "black" woman.

Provisional Decision Today: ICJ Weighs Emergency Measures Amid Allegations of Genocide in Gaza
Well, the ruling called for them to release the hostages, and they have not, so clearly, they are liars.

Provisional Decision Today: ICJ Weighs Emergency Measures Amid Allegations of Genocide in Gaza
So, the ICJ's position is the same as the Biden Administration's, keep fighting, be more careful. The ICJ also called for Hamas/Palestine to release the hostages immediately. Have they complied yet? Why should Israel comply if Hamas does not?

Trump is dominating the primaries. That doesn’t mean he’ll beat Biden
Apparently, the prosecutor and judge used to be work for the same firm and are (alleged) to have something of a history. How funny is that? Sorry, I think this is in one of the other BS cases.

I was visiting the US with my family right before covid. We were in Florida for a cruise, that ultimately got cancelled, at 01:00 the morning of departure. Ended up spending almost two weeks in Orlando with most all the parks closed. Went to Moss Park and did cookouts almost every day. Burgers and sausages most every day.

Yes, it's almost like it would be in the Palestinian's best interest to quit calling for the eradication of the Jews.

Publix has (or at least had) some beautiful markets. I loved the neon fronts. I little rich for my blood though, I was more a Winn-Dixie guy. Remember the Eight O'clock Bean coffee grinders?

How does taking never Trumpers hurt the GOP? It would just stop them from voting for Biden, or at all.

In all fairness, the only clear job requirements were black, and women. She's half black and (per Willie Brown) all women.

No, as long as he makes orange hair fat "jokes" about Trump, the seals will clap for him the way they clap for Jon Stewart. Clapping at jokes, now that's hilarious.

Provisional Decision Today: ICJ Weighs Emergency Measures Amid Allegations of Genocide in Gaza
Yes, the Palestinians that want to eradicate Israel will either have to change their position such that they can peacefully coexist with Israel, or be eliminated, one way or the other.

Clearly you did not read/watch the ruling. Or, you just redefined the words to mean something different from what they were intended to mean.
