This will not age well. I just want to make sure it’s in my timeline. Especially the part about “without causing a recession” – because that’s even more rich.
Allison Morrow, New York libshit extraordinaire, will be ridiculed by me over this in the future.
Like a broken record. Over and over and over, we have seen windless days. More proof that wind and solar will NEVER be primary power sources in a modern, industrialized country. The only “non carbon” answer that makes ANY sense at all is nukes.
Nukes and natural gas – that’s the way of the future. Greentards are too stupid or stubborn to see the obvious. They can all suck a cock.
After last night’s City council meeting, it looks like everybody gets to pay another $120 a year for their water and wastewater.
I understand that keeping the water infrastructure running properly is important and it ain’t cheap. No argument there. Without clean water, you’re dead in two days.
If City council morons had NOT handed out that money and had INSTEAD changed a $3,000-per-house impact fee, the City would have over $500,000 more in their coffers right now to defray these costs. Throw in all the other houses built during that time, and it would likely be closer to $900,000.
But hey – Deorald got a new mansion and a trip to Hawaii out of the deal!!
OH – and don’t forget the City was SHOWERED with TWO MILLION DOLLARS in Covid money a couple years ago. Where did that go? Oh right – the SAME MISTI TALBERT stood before council as LEDC president and pilfered $971,000 for her moronic Business Pork project – which still sits empty to this day.
You can truthfully say that Misti Talbert and her idiot decisions have left the City close to $2,000,000.00 poorer than if she had stayed the hell out of politics. That money could have almost completely paid for all the necessary water upgrades. Williamson, Monroe and Kuehne are close seconds in the culpability department. They were sitting right there voting in favor of that bullshit.
Local communist Clayton Tucker is NOT HAPPY that voting shenanigans are actually being looked into, for once! Commies are not used to law and order – they hate it.
Roland is the fucking loser that Comrade Clayton was backing for U.S. Senate in the primaries. He’s an attention whore who is trying to stay relevant.
Whaaaaah! Intimidation! The elderly! The Latinos! So horrible!!
Funny, you asswipes were cheering on the FBI when they barged into Trump’s house. Have a taste of your own medicine. I happen to think there IS massive fraud going on and I’ll bet anyone a few hundo that at the end of all this, Paxton is totally justified and will find blatant fraud. But even if it’s all a witch hunt, I’m fine with that, too. About time our side started using their power and fighting some lawfare with lawfare. You libshits started down this road. So stop crying about it.
These people were referred by the district attorney for voter fraud, warrants were issued and homes searched. No one is above the law, not even crooked or elderly democrat Latinos.
Fuck you. You made your bed. Lie in it.
And when they DO find fraud, throw these twats in jail for 20 years. We need to set an example for other scumbags out there in the future. Maybe even deport the sons of bitches.
Tina Seefeldt (real estate agent for Coldwell in Killeen) never misses a chance to try and take a shit on America while also telling us how much better Europeans and Africans are.
She tries to do so again here, but her facts are so laughably wrong (and her English writing skills so laughably poor) that all she accomplishes is making a complete ass hat out of herself….
The idea that some African teen girls are revolutionizing electricity generation (and that the media is hiding it because they are black!) is so ridiculous I was laughing out loud as I read this. I knew it would take me 30 seconds of research to disprove this nonsense, and I was right.
Only the DUMBEST of the DUMB, quasi-retarded, far-left kraut-for-brains dunce would actually believe something like this. My 9-year-old kid knows better. This is straight-up propaganda, so of course, the Kamala-loving dipshit Seefeldt swallows it all hook, line and sphincter – all while throwing in a made-up “fact” that only 10% of American high school kid go to college (it’s actually 61.4% – down from 66%). Of course, college is a total joke these days, so the more kids who skip it, the better.
First of all – this article is from TWELVE YEARS AGO! So if jars of piss were going to provide electricity on a useful scale, this “invention” of theirs would be commercialized by now. Notice they don’t say WHAT this electricity can power for 6 hours. A flashlight? A home? A vibrator? We don’t know.
Secondly, this “urea electrolysis” was already invented by Gerardine Botte, a chemical engineer from…wait for it…Ohio University. Which, last I checked, was located in Ohio, U.S.A.
Thirdly, according to the inventor: “another concern is the implication that the students get more energy out of the urine than they use to prepare it in the first place. That isn’t true, according to Botte. “It is a high school project, so don’t take it [so seriously]”
So the whole thing is a total joke. Not surprising, since Africa is a third-world wasteland where ZERO useful, world-changing inventions have been hatched. I can understand why they are experimenting on jars of piss, because they probably lack indoor plumbing and end up storing their urine in this manner.
What will they think of next?!? Lighting dried goat shit on fire to heat their mud huts? Amazing!!
Frankly, if when Vasco da Gama rounded the Cape of Good Hope, he’d just thrown out a wheel, the Africans should have been eternally grateful because they didn’t have wheels yet in the 1500s. But he would’ve also had to throw out an instruction book on how to use it – except almost nobody knew how to read either. Sorry if these things are non-PC, but they are facts.
Not EVERY great invention was made by Americans. I WILL give credit to two German geniuses for inventing the Haber-Bosch process of ammonia synthesis – which allows for the cheap fertilizer for crops that basically allows half the world’s population to live. Of course, they were ALSO white males – not African teenage girls.
You total moron.
Speaking of Africans, how’s that “we’re better than you for taking in millions of illiterate, fake refugee scumbags from Africa” thing going for you, Germany??
Showing once again what an utterly clueless clown she is, Honey Boo Boo’s mom made an anus of herself by publicly admitting she was asked to leave the local farmers market for selling moldy shitbutter…
I’m not sure what she thinks is so “ugly” about this letter. They explained what she did and why she’s being asked to leave. Pretty simple: you’re selling shitbutter and lying about it. You’re Audi 5000, my friend. Q.E.D.
I think she thinks everyone will be on her side on this but she is very wrong. Nobody cares if you leave the market. Nobody will miss you. The market will go on and you will be quickly forgotten.
In 2011 the company Solar Reserve presented an ambitious project to build a gigantic photovoltaic power plant in the Nevada desert between Las Vegas and Reno. Ten thousand mirrors would be installed in a spiral around a giant tower using concentrated solar power (CSP), which would be stored in molten salt tanks for later use.
The project cost US$1 billion, which was provided by investors such as CityGroupin loans guaranteed by the US government. State authorities paved the way for the plant to be built on public land and in 2015 it was commissioned amid optimistic acclaim about the future of renewable energy.
However, almost a decade later, in April, the facility was shut down, leaving a photovoltaic wasteland that has cost major investors such as Warren Buffet and the state of Nevada hundreds of millions of dollars. The reason? By the time it opened, the plant’s technology was already outdated compared to much more efficient projects.
Nevada’s photovoltaic desert: Whose fault is this billion-dollar failure?
CSP technology, unlike the solar panels commonly used in photovoltaic plants such as the one Apple plans to install in Spain, consists of a series of mirrors that concentrate the sun’s heat in storage tanks with inorganic molten salts. They can store thermal energy at temperatures of between 290º and 565º.
This thermal energy is used to heat water and produce steam that drives a turbine that generates electricity. However, by 2015, much more efficient systems of this type already existed. This led to solar power generated at the Crescent Dunes photovoltaic desert costing about $135 per MWh, while other plants of the same type were selling their power for about $30 per MWh.
The costs of maintaining the facility and the salaries of the maintenance team eventually made the project unviable, and by last year it had lost its only customer, NV Energy, leading to the plant’s closure. Investors pulled out of the project and sued Solar Reserve for mismanagement of capital.
Yet stupid assholes like Clayton Tucker, Sandy Cortez, CommieLa Harris and other will continue to tell us this is “the future” of energy. The will continue to throw YOUR tax dollars at this garbage and raising your power bills.
It’s been obvious for a while that the Democrat party is increasingly the party of bitter, angry, mentally ill women and weak men.
The manipulation methods used by libshits are all based on emotional blind spots.
First you have the large percentage of 20-something females hooked on social media and trapped in their own echo chambers being deluded into thinking they are attractive and powerful when they are, in fact, clueless morons and average basic bitches. They are essentially wards of the state relying heavily on government for their jobs and their money. They adopt “they/them” pronouns and work as DEI hires doing nothing useful all day. Many have a PhD in something completely made-up and useless like Gender Studies.
Then you have the older women on anti-depressants. They just get fatter and stop dating. They have no husbands or boyfriends to give them proper intellectual debate and make them really rethink their political insanity.
They are easily manipulated emotionally to turn their nurturing instincts towards nefarious purposes (“The poor illegal immigrant! The poor misunderstood gender confused person! The poor criminal who had a mean daddy! Global warming will kill us all if I don’t do something!”).
If you look at the comment section of a weak Marxist ‘man’ like this….
You will notice it is 98% female. Many older and lonely. Almost ALL of them fall into one of the following categories: ‘artist’, former government worker, college ‘professor’ in a joke subject, or works for non-profit that sponges off the government.
A HUGE percentage of them are originally from a libshit state like NJ, MA, CT, CA or NY.
They ALL had the “I’ve been vaxxed” social media filter at some point or another, to show they’re ‘part of the gang’ and can be a part of something bigger than themselves…because in reality, they have nothing else to live for.
Here is just a small sample of what I call the D.O.L.Ls who follow our local socialist – Dumb Old Liberal Ladies:
I love it. The Lampasas Democrat Socialist Party is now so shrunken, sad and sorry that they had to cancel their monthly in-person meeting and instead do it over zoom. I bet Loose Haywire and Stacey Hogg were very upset they didn’t get to gorge on food at Bella Italia…
I feel bad for Bella Italia that they didn’t get these two socialist losers into their establishment and make a few hundred dollars on fried calamari…
Bummer. But what do you expect when your chairman and ‘leader’ is a tool like Comrade Clayton Tucker? The asshole who belongs to 27 different organizations to pad his resume but is successful at none of them. Remember the Lampasas Dem County convention? LOL:
Looks like things have only gotten worse since then. It fills my heart with pride to see our town shun, ignore and shit upon these loser socialists. It’s awesome!!
They are SO desperate, in fact, that Comrade Clayton is now sending invites to one of my many fake accounts I have embedded in his commie organization! This showed up on my phone the other day. It was from the “Lampasas Democrats and Texas Bluebonnet PAC.” So he’s now trying to piggyback his stupid PAC onto the Lampasas dems. LOL.
Eleven million bucks! For 115 employees. By my math, that is an AVERAGE of $96,133 in salary and benefits for EVERY SINGLE employee of the City of Lampasas.
How do I arrive at this? According to Ward himself, a 3% COLA will add $230,000 of expense to City payrolls.
230,000 / .03 = $7.66 million in current salaries.
Finley has said repeatedly over the years that benefits are about 40% of salaries.
$7.66 million x 1.4 = $10.724 million in CURRENT salary and benefit costs.
But wait! Add on the lowest COLA of $230,000 and you reach $10,954,000.00
Not quite $11 million. Oh but wait! Health insurance costs are jumping 12% this year! That easily puts us over the $11 million mark. First time ever!
Another year or so and we’ll be looking at an AVERAGE salary of six figures for every single employee of the City. Pretty amazing! I know skilled nurses who don’t make that much – and they have about 20x more responsibility than Finley deGraffenreid does.
Don’t forget, as part of their benefits package, guys like Finley get DOUBLE retirement matching by the City. If he puts in $7,000 per year, the City throws in $14,000 for him.
You won’t hear the word “benefits” uttered ONCE by Ryan Ward during the salary begging coming up next week. Not once.
