RETURN OF THE COMFY CHAIR REVOLUTION: Three Cheers for the Third Place: Starbucks’ recent refocus on the in-person experience reminds us that we still need communal places.

TODAY’S LANDFILLS ARE TOMORROW’S GOLD MINES: Buried fortune: US finds $8.4 billion in rare earths sitting in coal ash landfills.

I’M SORRY, BUT ALL THE TASTEMAKERS IN THE MEDIA ARE TELLING ME HE’S THE WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD:

Elon Musk: At GM, there's a special elevator only for senior executives. We have no such thing at Tesla.

But don’t worry, hard-working Tesla people. There are Democrats trying to wreck the value of your stock.

This was my favorite speaker, the independent journalist and hacker who tells us the entire point of these organized protests are to tank Tesla stock.

RUY TEIXEIRA: How Deep Is the Hole Democrats Are In? Pretty deep. “On the plus side, voters in a February Navigator Research poll across the battleground Congressional districts thought Democrats in Congress “fight for what they believe.” However, they also thought Democrats don’t respect work, don’t share my values, don’t look out for working people, don’t value work, don’t care about people like me, don’t have the right priorities and, by a massive 47 points, don’t get things done. Double ouch.”

Oh, yeah, they fight for what they believe all right. The problem is what they believe.

UPDATE:

Democrats now have a 27% approval rating and their new strategy is domestic terrorism.

In case you’re wondering why their anti-American party is circling the drain.

CHANGE: “The EV charging infrastructure in the United States is definitely not ready to handle mass EV adoption. There just aren’t enough chargers and many of the existing ones suffer from reliability and user experience issues. The one shining exception is Tesla’s Supercharger network.”

DOUBLE STANDARDS ARE THE ONLY STANDARDS THE ESTABLISHMENT HAS LEFT. Double Standards for Jew-Haters? “Because the DOJ under Merrick Garland had identified ‘racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists’ as the No. 1 terrorism threat in America, and because this one crazy Jew-hater in Richmond happened to be associated with a Catholic group, a shadow of terrorist suspicion was cast on all conservative Catholics by the FBI. ‘Henrico man sentenced to over eight years in prison for illegally possessing Molotov cocktails’ was the headline on a DOJ press release last month bringing an end to the Xavier Lopez case, and not a single Democrat has filed a lawsuit or issued a press release opposing the prosecution of Lopez. Why, then, are we hearing so much noise about the Trump administration’s crackdown on Jew-haters?”

Because the left defends its tools, and persecutes its enemies.
