Here Are Some Fascinating Stories That Were Left Out Of The Bible - The Babylon Bee

Since Adam was the first man, he had to invent a ton of stuff but he had no patent office to protect his ideas and they were all stolen: Sad! 

The Electric-Vehicle Unicorn Crash - WSJ Opinion

Most EVs today can’t go more than 250 miles on a charge (and less in cold weather). Drivers worry for good reason that they’ll run out of juice on the road. President Biden hopes to alleviate this so-called range anxiety by subsidizing a nationwide network of charging stations. This won’t solve the problem. Public charging stations are nowhere more ubiquitous than in California’s Bay Area. But a recent study found that less than three-quarters of charging stations worked. In many cases the plugs, screens or payment systems were broken, or connector cables weren’t long enough to reach the car’s port. Imagine if 25% of the nation’s gasoline stations weren’t working and drivers didn’t know until they got out of the car whether they’d be able to fill up.

POLL: 52% Of Nation Now Desire To Ditch Republic, Establish Monarchy With Ultra MAGA King - The Babylon Bee

“Our MAGA King is so focused on making fun of people that he doesn’t have time left over to actually do anything, which is perfect because that’s when leaders mess things up,” said average citizen Joe Pleasant of Vermont. “He’s going to do great things for this kingdom by leaving us all alone.”

Michigan Judge Suspends Enforcement of Pre-Roe Abortion Ban - WSJ

In her ruling, Judge Gleicher stated that due-process protections in Michigan’s Constitution imply a right to bodily integrity that would be violated by the 1931 law.

Irony of irony.

In April, Judge Gleicher disclosed to lawyers involved in the litigation that she has made annual donations to Planned Parenthood of Michigan and once represented Planned Parenthood as a volunteer attorney in the 1990s. The judge said she was confident of her objectivity in the matter and didn’t think a recusal was warranted.

That’s odd, I didn’t see this noted in any of the other reporting. PP was a petitioner in the case.

Adding to the farce, the lawsuit was argued over a currently moot point, and the defendant was the MI AG who refused to defend.

So this was a case where PP brought a suit, which no one defended, over a legal nonissue, in front of a judge who currently supports PP financially and has done so annually for three decades.

Son’s new robot.

Congress to Hold Its First Hearing on UFOs in More Than 50 Years - WSJ

Rep. Adam Schiff (D., Calif.), chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, said the public deserved to learn more about what the government knows about these unexplained flying objects that have long been the subject of conspiracy theories. 

This is a public, non-classified hearing. Translation: nothing new will be revealed and this is a waste of legislative time and resources.

Is it fraud, waste, and abuse week in Washington?
