It’s a feature.
This is what the left wants.

There’s one of these in my small town (paducah ky) I see the workers out in parking lot quite a bit....they look like all Chinese. The scary thing is that they’re located near a major substaiton which makes me nervous as far sabotage goes.

We need unlimited more EVs.
They are saving the world, one unstoppable car fire, at a time.

IF this is true, then it is solely because retarded leftist eco-freaks are shutting down coal plants. Compounding the fact that the leftists have hindered our ability to build nuclear power plants.

“… credible plans to expand the nation’s creaking power grid”
Joe, ask your buddy Xi if you can borrow his credible plans. I don’t hear any creaking coming from China.

Soon....
Dem aide:
They did a ceremony of the last gas range being tossed onto a landfill heap. Next to the lawn mowers and leaf blowers.
Next year we will have one for the final gas powered car. It has to get gas in big cans from Mexico or Canada to run it. (laughs).
Reporter rushing in: “Did you see the bulletin? There’s going to be a total power outage in twenty minutes over the Eastern half of the country.”
Aide: Again? Sheesh.

Soon you will see large private entities build their own power generating facilities to power their own needs. Think Google, Microsoft and large tract homeowners.

To paraphrase my famous tagline: “An Infrastructure built on MERIT cannot survive on DEI”. We now have DEIs running national energy policy - and so the system will all grew up with and loved will soon COLLAPSE.
