I was standing in line to get an entry ticket at the 24 hrs of Le Mans. She noticed the USNA crest on my t-shirt & started a conversation. After we got our tickets a ...

A Presidental decisions on whether or not to open areas for oil production, to sell leases, & to regulate production, obviously have an impact on production quantity & prices, whether in the short term or the long term. As does a decision to draw down the strategic petroleum reserve. As do o...

The article I linked made the point that the oil policies of a President don't always reach maximum impact until after his term in office. I did not mention Trump. The article said: " New Mexico’s rise began before Trump took office in 2017 . ...A nearly $1 billion federal lease sale in New Mex...

There is a delayed impact of any Presidential oil policies. For example -- much of the current "oil boom" is the result of increased production in New Mexico, made possible by policy decisions made in 2018. https://www.eenews.net/articles/what-bidens-oil-record-means-for-the-industrys-futu...

REAL ID verification does not require in-person verification. The ID # could be included on the registration & mail in ballot requests For signature validation, the signature on the ballot or request can be compared (via internet) to the signature on the ID card. With motor voter, you can regist...

^^^ I'm smart enough to know that your excuses not to require REAL ID are BS.

Even if not checked for US citizenship vs Permanent Residence (which could be done automatically),
it would weed out unlawful residents.

It is already illegal for noncitizens to vote in federal elections, and there is no evidence that this is happening. Who is enforcing it & how ? Who is checking & gathering evidence that it is not. It is also illegal to exceed the speed limit. REAL ID documents citizenship or proof of legal...

The US could green light & provide the weapons for Ukraine to attack Russia's oil infrastructure (e.g. ATACMS & air launched cruise missiles fired by F-16's safely within protected Ukrainian airspace), while increased US oil production would make up for the reduction of Russian oil in the gl...

Some in Israel welcome Biden's pause in bomb shipments. Gideon Levy, ex-cabinet official under Shimon Peres and long-time columnist for Haaretz welcomes Biden's move shared by many families of Hamas hostages. Netanyahu is not acting in isolation.

I do not recall the National Review advocating for a complete withdrawal from Afghanistan. I believe they endorsed leaving the residual force that Biden's military & Intel chains of command recommended. From the NR link cited above : America’s presence in Afghanistan was a relatively low-cost an...
