✊🏽 30 years ago today: RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE performed "Bulls on Parade" on 'Saturday Night Live' and were banned from playing the show ever again.
The number that should terrify every Western automaker is 1,500 kW.
BYD's Flash Charging pushes 1,500 kilowatts into a car battery. The fastest charger you can find in the US today maxes out at 350 kW. ChargePoint is bragging about rolling out 600 kW chargers sometime in 2026. BYD is already at 2.5x that. Deployed. 5,000 stations live. 20,000 planned by December.
The car in this video, the Song Ultra, starts at $22,000. Five minutes of charging gets you 250 miles of range. The fastest-charging EV you can buy in America is the Lucid Gravity at 400 kW, and it starts at $80,000.
So BYD is charging 4x faster at one-quarter the price. And Geely just beat them last week with a 4-minute charge. The Chinese automakers aren't competing with each other on range or styling anymore. They're in a charging speed war that Western companies haven't even entered.
BMW's response was literally "pursuing quick charging forces other compromises." That's the "640K ought to be enough for anybody" of the EV era.
In World War II, the moment Japanese and German oil industries, train networks, and industrial depots were hit, they capitulated.
It was part of strategic bombing.
Iran now has no airports (logistics are severely impacted).
Iran has no navy (no way to protect its oil tankers or intimidate other countries at sea).
Its oil infrastructure has started getting hit (its main source of revenue is ending, and the message is clear: the regime can be completely destroyed).
They have no option but to unconditionally surrender.
The United States has spent EIGHT TRILLION DOLLARS fighting and policing in the Middle East. Thousands of our Great Soldiers have died or been badly wounded. Millions of people have died on the other side. GOING INTO THE MIDDLE EAST IS THE WORST DECISION EVER MADE.....
@SecWar 🖕you and your team will never ever recover from this war. The Republican party may never win another election because of what you did. We all trusted you and you started another war. You said no more money overseas but you just sent it all to Israel.
@TonyLaneNV I have a pit mix. I stopped bringing him to the dog park when he was like 3. Respect the breed. This owner is in fight or flight and couldn't handle the dog fight. Its about what they are capable of doing to other dogs and you can't stop it
BREAKING: Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche just admitted the DOJ excluded images showing “death, physical abuse, or injury” from today’s Epstein files release.
Let that sink in.
The government is acknowledging graphic evidence exists and chose to withhold it, while redacting names tied to Jeffrey Epstein and his powerful associates, including Donald Trump.
Every Epstein email is like

Hi Jeffrey,
Great to touch base.
That buffoon of a Governor out in Minnesota, Tim Walz, just doesn't know when to stop.
He has let protestors run wild even as they continue to attack ICE agents. And now, he's fanning the flames even more.
The Walz rebellion must end.
