New 0-60 in 1.9s Tesla roadster is a working prototype with perfect finish
An explanation of what is going on in this youtube videoThe greatness of what happens is concealed by the zoom ratio of the camera. In this video, the new Tesla roadster accelerates to 60 mph, and back to zero in under 4 seconds. Very important: Almost no one can get (close to) this kind of performance out of a Ferrarri or any other exotic car without wrecking it (spinning sideways and rolling it.) The smoothness in which the Tesla hits 60 and brakes to zero with full control means Tesla has already mastered the traction control, to keep it from being destroyed in an accident when ordinary people try this. This car is already a masterpiece, only waiting for manufacturing setup.
People are excited about this car for good reason. Rather than drying up like Solyndra after the government subsidies got pulled, Tesla instead made a brilliant move by using their best tech to produce the highest performing car on earth, and unlike the mythical Chinese hyper plane, the new Tesla is not vapor ware.
Despite being expensive at $200,000, when you consider the fact that this Tesla solidly beats cars that cost a million plus, it is an absolute bargain. And in the case of Tesla, it was easy to do by simply adding a more powerful motor, and re-programming the traction control. BRILLIANT MOVE, ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT, Tesla will without a doubt survive losing the subsidy.

Contry singer's new song: "Take a knee, MY ASS
This is good (heh)From the Washington Examiner
Country singer releases 'Take a Knee, My Ass' to counter NFL national anthem protests
Country music singer Neal McCoy takes a jab at former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick and others who protested the national anthem by taking a knee in his newest single he debuted last week.The song, "Take a Knee, My Ass (I Won't Take a Knee)," was performed in front of a small audience on Oct. 8th and shared online as a Facebook Live video, which has since gone viral.
When I see someone on TV take their stand by bending their knee, whether it be on astro turf or grass," the lyrics say. "I think of those whose freedom was not free, and I say: 'Take a knee - my ass!'
The song, which McCoy notes was written by a friend of his, cites the armed forces as a reason why he proudly stands for the national anthem.
"I've been on 15 USO tours," McCoy explained to reporters. "I've entertained our troops in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, and all over the world."
My comment: I have never heard of him, but he must be famous with 15 USO tours, which Marilyn Monroe also went on.
Keystone pipeline critics may have been right.
I spoke in favor of the Keystone pipeline. But now it appears to be a piece of Chinese trash. Yesterday it leaked 250,000 gallons of oil. Workers only noticed when the oil started coming to the surface, which means the flow sensors did not detect jack. Since the flow meters should have detected a leak of five barrels or less, we might be looking at sabotage. It is extremely improbable so much escaped any other way. There have been other leaks of over 10,000 gallons already that I never heard about until now that should have also been detected a lot sooner and were not.The bottom line then is that either the Keystone pipeline is a piece of trash just like skeptics said it was going to be while it was going in, or it is getting sabotaged, complete with computer systems tampering.
I still say that pipelines like this have to exist for the good of the nation, 210,000 gallons leaked underground is not really a catastrophe but it certainly is not good. The main point here is that the pipeline is probably garbage, just like it's skeptics said. The fact the parts were made in China probably has a lot to do with that, the old American stuff has been in service for many decades without a large number of similar problems. The only way out of the chinese garbage scenario is intentional sabotage by very skilled people to make sure the flow sensors did not trigger an alert.
This was published in a CNN report so it could be fake news, but it probably is not, it is risky to lie about things like this. UPDATE: All the major networks have this now, it is not just CNN spew.
Tesla has announced a new car that accelerates like a bullet bike
0-60 in 1.9 seconds, quarter mile in 8.9Also claimed is a 620 mile range on a single charge.
My comments:
The high accelleration, which would substantially exceed 1 G (1.446 g's to be exact) would be possible with front and rear motors that can be run far beyond their rating for short periods of time and a road with very good traction.The 620 mile range would be made possible by new battery technology developed a year ago, which would have taken some time to hit manufacturing. The year 2020 timeline sounds about right. The 620 mile range would, however, be completely dependent upon driving like a grandma that is beyond the grave, and never ever even considering tapping even a small percent of the car's potential. I'd bet you could easily deplete that nice long range down to 80 miles or so if you had any fun.
At any rate, my expectations of an electric car I'd actually buy would be a 400 mile highway range, that could go as low as 320 on certain highways but no lower. If the new Tesla did not go 620 miles as advertised but could be easily coaxed to a 500 mile range without sacrificing too much I'd be OK with that, and accept occasional shorter ranges depending on the road.
My biggest issue with electric cars is how would you shut them off if you got hijacked? It would not be as easy as putting a switch on the fuel pump or ignition. In the case of an electric car similar to a Tesla, you'd be dealing with 600 or more volts and lots and lots of amps. That won't be controled via a switch on the dashboard without installing a heavy duty industrial contactor that the switch controlled somewhere out of sight. That would be way beyond what the average joe could handle.At any rate, here is a portion of Musks' brag about this new car -
Elon Musk, the Chief Executive of electric car maker Tesla, unveiled a surprise new vehicle on Thursday night - a roadster that he said would be the "fastest production car ever" made.
> Capable of going from 0-60 mph in 1.9 seconds, the Tesla Roadster would be the first such car ever to break the two second mark, the entrepreneur said at a launch near Los Angeles.
He also said it would climb from 0 to 100 mph in 4.2 seconds and clear a quarter mile in 8.9 seconds. "This will the first time that any production car has broken 9 seconds in the quarter mile," he said
With a 200 kilowatt hour battery pack, the Tesla Roadster will have a range of 620 miles on a single charge - another new record.
"The point of doing this is to give a hardcore smackdown to gasoline cars," he said.
“Driving a gasoline sports car is going to feel like a steam engine with a side of quiche."
I'd say it is plausible, but wait and see. The biggest issue will be traction control, 1.46 g's does not happen easily, it is not just an issue of dropping a bunch of horsepower and hoping for the best.
The Telegraph report on this is Here.
An additional side note here -In one sense, converting everyone over to electric cars can easily represent a huge loss of control by the elite. Many people say all they are trying to do is limit the range people can drive. I disagree - the range limits really will be overcome, and when they are, you'll start seeing everyday cheap cars that can be charged with solar panels that have much smaller batteries than this Tesla has, and very good range. When that happens, roof top mounted panels will handle most power requirements for most people, and an array at home could easily finish the job. That would represent an enormous loss of control for the elite. The true ultimate bug out vehicle would have a couple kilowatts of solar on the roof, and NEVER need to return to a gas station.
Another important side note here -
This is a very smart move by Musk, who has lost the government subsidies that Tesla was depending on. What could possibly be a better way to survive than producing a car that really is the world's top performer, and making it electric? No one is going to care that it can't outrun a Bugatti when it can beat a Bugatti solidly at speeds below 250 MPH. It will all boil down to people saying "when will I ever go 250+ MPH anyway? And the Tesla will come at 15 percent of the price or less.Erdogan withdrew from Nato military exercises after being labeled an enemy on the chart
From RT:
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced that the country's troops have left ongoing NATO war games ahead of schedule, after his name appeared in an"enemy chart." The move comes amid tensions between the US and Turkey within the military bloc.On Friday, the Turkish leader slammed an "incident" during NATO drills in Norway, in which Erdogan himself and Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, who founded the modern Turkish state, were depicted in an "enemy chart."
"They used an enemy chart in Norway. In that chart, there was my name and [Mustafa Kemal] Ataturk's picture," the Turkish leader told his Justice and Development (AK) Party members, as cited by Turkish media.
Erdogan said it was decided to withdraw all 40 Turkish soldiers from a NATO drill "immediately," adding that even the removal of those names would not change the decision.
"There can be no alliance like that," Erdogan said.

Plane crash over Rothschild mansion
There was a collision with a plane and a helicopter over Rothschild's Waddesdon mansion North West of London. One can only have high hopes with this event, but there are no reports of Sir Rothschild getting hurt. See thisThe new Saudi prince is a puppet of Israel
Saudi Arabia has always been such a puppet of Israel that saying 911 was done by the Sauds is the same as saying Israel.
Keep in mind the source of this quote is Debka File, which has a habit of posting "convenient facts" for Israel.The next Saudi King Crown Prince Muhammad and Israel agree that Iran is the biggest threat to the region, but Israel's top soldier rules out initiating an attack on Hizballah.
Two London publications on the same day, Thursday, Nov. 17, shed unusual light on the next chapter in Saud royal history, as well as on the hitherto semi-clandestine ties between Riyadh and Jerusalem.
The London Daily Mail, quoting "a source close to the Saudi royal family" reported that King Salman, 91, intends to give up the throne next week and name his son, Crown Prince Muhammad bin Salman, 32 as his successor. The king will reportedly confine himself to ceremonial duties like the queen of England, retaining only the title of "Custodian of the Holy Shrines."
Near two weeks ago, Prince Muhammad ordered 500 notables, including princes, former ministers and business leaders detained on charges of corruption. The British newspaper carried the first photos of the distinguished detainees sleeping on mattresses on the floor of the five-star Carlton Ritz Riyadh.
After he is crowned king, the prince will focus on Iran, according the Daily Mail. His plan is "to start the fire in Lebanon," in the hope of Israeli military backing. He is convinced he has to hit Iran and Hizballah - contrary to the advice of the royal family - and will enlist the help of the Israeli military to crush Hizballah, for which he has promised Israel billions of dollars if they agree.
The source stressed: MBS can't confront Hizballah in Lebanon without Israel. The Daily Mail did not reveal how Israel sees this proposition - only that the prince has a Plan B: to fight Hizballah in Syria. Neither did its source explain how this would come about amid a crumbling Syrian insurgency.
DEBKAfile's Middle East sources note that rumors of King Salman’s imminent abdication and handover to his son Muhammad have been around for some time and are credible, given the monarch's failing health. Many of the hundreds of high-profile figures he placed under detention on Nov. 4 are opposed to his accession.
That the Crown Prince will focus on Iran is also credible – except that more than a year ago, he declared that Saudi Arabia was at war with the Islamic Republic in Yemen and it is not going very well. The Saudis and their allies, the UAE, are stuck in a standoff with the Iranian-backed Yemeni Houthi rebels. Iran moreover threatens their ports and capital cities with missile strikes. However, when the Houthis fired a ballistic missile supplied by Iran at Riyadh international Airport on Nov. 4, Prince Muhammad called it an act of war.
He is turning to Israel and its armed forces, not just as the only reliable military and intelligence force capable of handling the opening shots of the war on Iran, but out of their shared perception of Iran as the biggest threat to the Middle East. He moreover no longer expects active and determined participation in fighting Iran from the US under President Donald Trump. On this last point, Saudi Arabia and Israel are divided.

Black lives matter had a poll seriously backfire
You know Trump has a LOT of real support if this was the result of a poll sent out through their own twitter!
If this angers you, you are conservative. If it does not bother you, you are a liberal.
This is a Youtube video. Here is the description:
Caution, language not suitable for work environments
A disgusting video of a welfare queen bragging about how smart she is for avoiding taxes and living off of other peoples' hard work has recently started to go viral. What's infuriating most people isn't even her bragging, or her feeding Red Lobster to her dog... it's what she used to buy with her EBT card just a few weeks ago.
Thanks to the past eight years of Obama, the government assistance programs in this country have gotten completely out of control. We now have lazy, selfish bums walking around with EBT cards buying steak, caviar, and luxury items, all because of other peoples' hard work.
One welfare queen however, has been infuriating millions of Americans both left and right alike-in the following video, she films herself going to Red Lobster and purchasing some live lobster, worth around $45 per pound. She then proceeds to say it disgusts her, and brag about how she's going to feed it to her dog.
"I just bought it for the fucking video, I don't want this shit disgusts me. I used to like lobster, but I can't eat it now-I went and I bought a fucking live lobster with my food stamps. Why are you allowed to buy a live lobster with your food stamps? So I picked out the biggest, fucking juiciest one," she says.
Then, she goes on to brag about how the cashier likely had to work "an hour and a fuckin' half" to pay for that lobster she just bought. "This is an hour and a half of her time, for me to buy this so I can make a fuckin’ YouTube video," she adds. "These peoples' taxes paid for this."

Clinton body count to soon grow
FBI Uranium One secret witness name revealed
William D. Campbell, a lobbyist, confirmed to Reuters he is the informant who will testify and provide documents to Congress about the Obama Administration's 2010 approval of the sale of Uranium One, a Canadian company with uranium mines in the United States, to Russia's Rosatom.
My comment: Someone released the name so he can be killed. He needs a full time body guard and full time supervison and should be in a safe house. But most likely he will not get that, because he listens to CNN and has never heard of the Clinton body count.
I doubt this witness will get a chance to speak. Watch for a new dead guy soon, whatever way it happens.
